Eternal Love: A Love Story Chapter 560 – Princess Tan Xiu

Duan Yazhu was speechless when he heard Zhao Ming’s words. How…can she reject his proposal just because he asked for some extra budget for maintenance?

He glanced at Ji Cheng to find some hope but his expressions were clear. He also agreed with Zhao Ming’s suggestion.

He turned around to see other people wanting to pressure Ji Cheng and Zhao Ming with public opinion but when he turned around, no one looked into his eyes.

“-_-”

They were avoiding his gaze.

‘ Does everyone think that Zhao Ming is right?’

” This budget plan for Paradise school will not be passed. Take and revise this plan and also make some suggestions and policies to support the education of poor children as well.” Ji Cheng said as he passed the doc.u.ments to Feng Ju to give it to Duan Yazhu.

Duan Yazhu stared at Ji Cheng with bewilderment and said, ” But your majesty, our school is for the children from noble and high-class families. How can we let the poor children study together with them?” 

Zhao Ming frowned hearing his words.

” In that sense, you shouldn’t be standing in front of His Majesty. Because from his level, you’re nothing. So should we throw you out from here? Mr. Duan Yazhu, you might be higher in class but you’re thinking is very poor.”

” If this is your level of thinking then I don’t know what you’re teaching to those students.” Zhao Ming said as she shook her head disappointedly.

Duan Yazhu pursed his lips as he wanted to say something but Ji Cheng was glaring at him to keep shut.

” My decision is final. Revise your plan and add the ideas to support the education of poor children as well. Since you’re taking the money from the royal treasury, you have to do things according to us.” Ji Cheng said casually.

” Also, I am going to make a different committee that will look after the execution of the policies and will check from time to time if those students are being treated well or not. And Mr. Duan, if I found out that you’re not following the royal orders properly, I am not going to hesitate to remove you from your position and punish you. Understand?”

Everyone was shocked when they heard Ji Cheng’s words. Because of what Zhao Ming said he is not only telling Duan Yazhu to revise the plan but will also going to make a separate committee to look after the execution of the policies.

Now everyone understood the importance that Zhao Ming holds in his eyes. 

If not for Zhao Ming, Ji Cheng would have passed the budget like always, but because Zhao Ming questioned the budget, he rejected the budget.

…

After the court session ended, Zhao Ming came back to her chamber while Ji Cheng went to the study to work.

” AH, I never thought that hearing all those reports would be this tiring.” she plopped on the bed and fell asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow.

It’s lunchtime but she fell asleep because of the exhaustion. 

After some time, when Ji Cheng finished his work and came back to the chamber, he saw Lu shi outside the room.

” Did she have lunch?” 

Lu shi was surprised when he suddenly stopped and asked her. After a moment of silence, she shook her head and said, ” Miss was tired and fell asleep after she came back.”

He pursed his lips and nodded.

When he entered the room, he saw that she was peacefully sleeping on the bed. He walked to her and sat on the bed beside her.

A smile appeared on his lips when he remembered the way she dealt with Duan Yazhu.

Since she woke up from the coma, she has changed for the better. Not only did their relationship improve but she also grew as a person.

She became more confident about herself and her achievements. Also, the way she manages the harem is amazing.

He smiled and laid beside her and scooped her in his arms.

He rubbed his face against her nape and hugged her from behind and closed his eyes.

While hugging her, he didn’t even realize when he fell asleep.

While sleeping, he had a strange dream. 

In a dream, he was in a very luxurious and exquisite place which was very similar to his palace but it was not the same.

The place was very lively and full of people. Everyone was wearing very exquisite clothes and jewelry.

Seems like there was some celebration about something.

.

.

He was walking around in this strange yet beautiful palace when he came across a large mirror.

He paused in his steps and stared at the reflection in the mirror.

His face..was not his. But it didn’t feel unfamiliar. 

” Commander Yuan Song” 

He turned around when someone called him. When he turned around, he saw a beautiful woman standing in front of him clad in a light pink colored dress which made her look innocent and feminine.

He felt something strange in his heart when he saw the beautiful woman who was smiling brightly upon seeing him.

He straightened himself and bowed in front of the woman, ” Princess Tan Xiu.”

” How do I look today?” The girl looked at him with her bright smile and asked anticipatingly.

He pursed his lips as he looked at her from head to toe. 

” Beautiful.” He said as he stared at her in a daze.

They stared at each other for a while and didn’t say a word. 

Ji Cheng’s lips twitched as he felt heartache. It was not a bad dream but why was he feeling so uncomfortable?

….

Zhao Ming groggily opened her eyes and felt Ji Cheng’s hands wrapped around her waist.

She turned around and saw that he was sleeping beside her. But his expressions..looked strange.

He was sweating profusely and was groaning while sleeping.

She placed her hand on his forehead to check if he has a fever.

.

” Oh My. He really has a fever.” She grew worried when she realised that he was burning with fever.

” Ji Cheng. Ji Cheng.” She tried to wake him up because he seems uncomfortable while sleeping.

She felt helpless seeing him in this state. It was the first time he looked so vulnerable.
