Chapter 293 - Incapable Master

Chapter 293 - ' Incapable Master'

After talking to Hao Mei, Xiao Li turned to Zhao Ming and looked at her wronged and upset expressions, " Sister, why are you doing this? If you're upset with me about something, you can punish me."

" But why are you doing this with Hao Mei? She did nothing wrong. She is just a young girl who does her work diligently. Why are you taking your grudges with her? Just because she has me as her Master?"

" Is this why you're being harsh with her and giving her this punishment?" She said with wronged and upset expressions.

She looked like she cared about Hao Mei and does not mind getting punished and humiliated in her stead.

Zhao Ming was speechless again. This woman has made her speechless many times in such a short time.

She did not give her death punishment or life imprisonment but in what way this is harsh punishment?

She just demoted her from her position and asked her to serve in lotus pavilion. Does this consider as ' harsh' punishment?

She previously wanted to give her harsh punishment but was afraid to do anything serious because she was worried that it would create much trouble.

That's why she only gave her demotion and asked her to serve as her maid. She wanted to teach her how to behave to her Master.

But these people are making her into a cruel Empress who sent people in dungeon just because they did something wrong.

Or did she asked her to get whipped by stick 100 times? She considers these punishments as harsh.

But since when demoting one from its position considered to be as harsh?

And what does she mean by that Hao Mei was working diligently? If she was working diligently, then would she have punished her like this?

Since when bi*ching about someone considers to be working diligently? This Xiao Li has so many illusions.

Moreover, why the hell she would take out the grudges of Xiao Li on Hao Mei? She is just her maid, not her damn sister.

If she wants to do something, then she directly teach Xiao Li a lesson. Why would she go to such lengths just to teach Xiao Li a lesson?

'Do they all think that life is like a live drama. Why do they have to make everything so complicated and dramatic?' she sighed inwardly.

….

Zhao Ming tried to calm her nerves down and looked at Xiao Li helplessly, " Consort Xiao Li, first of all, I don't have any grudges with you. At least not now. And if I had anything, then I won't take it on a mere servant. "

" Because I know that punishing a mere servant will not affect you at all. So there is no use of punishing someone innocent." She said plainly.

At this point, she was exhausted from their drama.

When Xiao Li heard Zhao Ming's words, her expressions fell. She did not like the way Zhao Ming was talking back to her.

" If I want to annoy you or take my grudges with you, then I will settle the scores with you directly. I don't need to do things behind the scenes and that too, indirectly." She said while trying to make it as polite as possible.

But Xiao Li could sense the ridicule in her tone which made her upset by the tone Zhao Ming was talking to her.

She came here hurriedly when she heard that Zhao Ming was punishing her maid which came into the palace with her into marriage.

It's not that she cares about that Hao Mei, but this was a good chance for her to insult Zhao Ming.

She knows that Hao Mei is not as innocent she looks. She must have done something to provoke Zhao Ming to this extent but how could she lose this chance?

Zhao Ming was behaving high and mighty in front of Ji Cheng these days and she also looked down upon her in front of Wen Ru.

She does not want to lose this chance and wanted to humiliate in front of everyone and this will make Ji Cheng despise Zhao Ming more.

She was saved from her trap when she set up with that bodyguard to humiliate her but in the end, nothing happened to her.

But this time, she was determined to not lose this chance and wanted to show the real place of Zhao Ming in the palace.

….

" Sister, what are you saying? If you don't have any grudges towards me, then why are you targeting this poor girl? Sister, I know that you hate that she came with me in marriage but is that her fault that her master is incapable to protect her?"

" Is it her fault that her master is too weak to protect her from others and let her humiliate because of me? Sister, if you want to punish someone then you can punish me."

" I will take all the punishments voluntarily and would not make a single noise. But let this girl leave. It's not her fault that she has such in…" Xiao Li was interrupted by Zhao Ming.

" Incapable Master." Zhao Ming has closed her eyes when Xiao Li was repeating the same words constantly.

She felt her head hurting with her constant whining. She was getting impatient and unknowingly completed her words for her.

When Zhao Ming spoke, everything suddenly becomes quiet.

Zhao Ming sense that something was not right and opened her eyes to check.

When she opened her eyes, she found that everyone was staring at her and at that time she realized that she mistakenly spoke her words.

And that too, ' Incapable Master'.

She pursed her lips and realized that everyone is giving her judging looks.

'Ha. Did I say something wrong? He..he..he.' she wondered inwardly.

She does not want to do this but it was unconscious. However, her words seem like she was dissing Xiao Li.

She wanted to do so, but that was not her intention this time.
