Chapter 244 - Would I be sacrificed just like the Queen in the chess? (2/2)

' Sigh.'

” I just hope that this palace will not be as ruthless as other palaces in novels and dramas, otherwise my real life will become a living hell.” she griefed over her condition while staring aimlessly.

There are times when people feel down and everything becomes negative even for energetic Xie Ming as well. She was just a human and has every reason to cry and worry about her future.

Her life was not as well as Zhao Ming who was living her life in her body as Xie Ming. Though she does not know what is her situation but she knows that it won't be as bad as her.

She has lived with Liwei and knows that he will not do anything unless she doesn't do anything.

Whereas she has to deal with Wen Xu, Xiao Li, and the cunning concubines. Moreover, this place does not have anything for her leisure. No phone, no wifi, no television, and laptop.

She was lying on the bed with her leg slightly raised and her hands were by her side.

She turned to look towards the door when Lu shi knocked on the door before entering. Her mood picked up seeing the delicacies placed on the tray on her hand.

She hurriedly sat over on the bed excitedly  disregarding her mood just a minute ago, ” You came.”

Lu shi smiled seeing the happy faces of Zhao Ming when she brought the food in. This food has come from the kitchen of the Emperor.

The Emperor has someone to send the food which was made in his kitchen saying that she will like this.

The food of the Emperor was prepared in the kitchen and was made of high quality and rare ingredients. So it's bound to be tasty when it is made if such rare and expensive items. However, he has sent the dishes for Zhao Ming which was very surprising.

Because not everyone has the honor to eat food made from the kitchen of the Emperor not even Xiao Li.

Wen Xu has eaten the food because she was the Empress Dowager and could eat the food made in the head kitchen. However, no one else was allowed to taste the food not even Xiao Li.

When Zhao Ming saw the same delicious noodles that she ate at the Banquet, her eyes shone with bright light and remembered that Ji Cheng has asked the head cook to prepare dishes for her as well.

Her eyes were glistening brightly as she looked at Lu shi and asked, ” Are these dishes made by head cook Qian Dan?” she asked in amusement as she stared at the dishes in front of her.

Lu shi seeing the excitement in her eyes and smiled lightly.

” Yes, Miss. It is indeed made by the head cook Qian Dan and the emperor has someone send these dishes to us. ”

Zhao Ming's mood elevated because she was craving these noodles and now she got to eat them. Though she has only eaten them yesterday but it was not enough to satiate her greed for delicious food.

Her mouth was drooling smelling the delicious aroma from the noodles. Qian Dan was the head cook and has served the old Emperor as well.

It was an honor for people other than the Emperor to eat food made by her. She was the head in the palace and was even older than the Empress Dowager.

Even Wen Xu could not say anything to her and was slightly intimidated by her because Qian Dan was not an easy figure to deal with.

' Chess is a game where everyone struggles to protect their king and the game will end with his death. Chess originated in northern India in the 6th century and then later spread into the world by the Muslim rulers and invaders.'
