Empress with no virtue |LK ADAPTATION|

CHAPTER 13

When Ji Jungkook reached Lu Hua Palace, he saw Li Concubine still crying, both eyes swollen red, her pretty face also lost colour. He felt his heart soften.

"Your majesty", While wiping her tears she said softly. Most probably because she cried too long, she voice sounded abit hoarse already.

She is still his woman, so he didn't want to be too harsh. He sat down, and allowed Li Concubine to climb into his bosom, a delicate body is now laying gently on him.

"Your majesty, you must help me!, Li Concubine stated clearly. Although he does not like Ye Lisa, but if the empress wants to punish a servant she really does not need Li Concubine's permission.

Futhermore as a concubine, she also fight back against the empress in public.

Originally, he thought Li Concubine was a clever girl who knows how to take care of his heart and listens well, she is pretty too, so he doted on her a little more, but who knew she would be like this now, losing her temper and not following the rules, really not presentable.

With these thoughts in mind, he slowly push away the woman in his arms.

Also, towards why Ye Lisa want to punish Fan Chun, Ji Jungkook knew as well. That is why when he see Li Concubine now, the feel is not as good as before, Ye Lisa is the empress, in the palace the only person that can bully her is only Ji Jungkook, who is Li Concubine.

Li Concubine felt that the emperor's reaction was abit weird, she looked at him with teary eyes, "Your ma.. majesty.."

"Looks like you still didn't realise your mistakes" Ji Jungkook said, "then you are grounded in your palace for 2 months, please reflect"

***

What happened in Lu Hua Palace was spread throughout the palace in a day, most people changed their opinion about Ye Lisa and respected her more. Initially they thought that there will be a war between Ye Lisa and Li Concubine, but who knew it was just one side that was strong. Thinking that Li Concubine got hit, and that she was once the most arrogant one amongst consorts, who knew that today she would be under the reign of the undoted empress.

The empress really has her ways. A lot of people are counting themselves lucky for not offending her last time, and those that got punished who wanted to report to the emperor, all stopped as they have seen what happened to Li Concubine.

Even with many people now respecting her, the empress is not too happy "Will being grounded be too serious? I have already punished her" The most important part is if Li Concubine is no longer in the picture, then who will help her go against Xian Concubine?"

Ji Jungkook was sitting at the desk playing with a globe, this Kun Ning Palace really have a lot of interesting things to play, "where did this thing came from?" Ye Lisa's inner thoughts he would know very well, because he understood that's why he would not let her get it.

"A western merchant gift it to me, he also gift many other types of play things, I wanted to send to you, but it got stopped by the ministry of household affairs, so I let them choose a few, treating them like it was something I bought"

"Why did it get stopped?" Ji Jungkook asked while playing with the round globe, making it spin around. On in there was the maps of his country and some others that he knew, but also some that he was not familiar with.

"I think it was because the merchant said something that didn't make sense so they didn't let him register"

Though the merchant was stopped, but the item still reached the empress, and also went into his view, what motive did the merchant have? What motive did the empress have as well for doing so?
