Chapter 265 - Do you want to let your secret known by everyone? (1/2)

After sending Lu shi away, Zhao Ming went to meet Master Li.

On her way to his chamber, she was worried that if that old man really knows something about her or just bluffing like that.

When she reached in front of Master Li's chamber, she looked at the big room embellished with beautiful statues at the entrance.

Though it's been a while she was living in this palace, she was still fascinated with this place. This place is free of pollution and has fresh air unlike the atmosphere of cities which is full of noises of horns and dust or pollution.

The ancient architecture was well built that too without any machines that they used in modern times. Though these people do not have many advanced techniques however they were talented.

In her last life, she never had a chance to visit any historical place but she had seen many ancient ornaments in the exhibitions and even had brought some for the collection. Those ornaments were expensive and were in great demand.

But all these items were not matched from the items she has seen here. The items here are authentic and beautiful. Many items that were sold in the exhibitions were told to be authentic and ancient but many times they were not as old that they claimed it to be.

The ornaments here were very beautiful and carved with the utmost care.

The only problem she had here was with clothes. The clothes are beautiful but they are too heavy for her to wear. She can't wear such heavy and glittery clothes.

She loves to collect all these items but does not want to wear these things. She is just obsessed to collect all these ornaments and clothes but always wears light material clothes and gowns.

Though according to her status as Empress, her clothes are light and not appropriate for her status however her styling and beauty overlooks everything. She will look beautiful in whatever she wears.

Whatever, she wears, she can make it look neat and beautiful.

….

After gathering her courage she walked up the steps and stood at the door of the Chamber. The door of the chamber was half closed and she could see a view of inside.

She tried to peek inside but couldn't see anything. As she was peeking inside the room while holding the door and tilting her head to see the ongoing inside the room, a voice could be heard from behind, ” There is no one in the room.”

” It looks likes so…,” she replied in a low voice while struggling to look inside but didn't see anyone.

” -_- ” Her body froze in the same sneaky position when she realized that the voice sounded familiar. The heavy voice which was full of confidence and aura was too familiar.

It was Master Li.

She bit her lower in regret as she hesitantly turned around to see the old man looking at her with his brows raised in a domineering manner.

Master Li has gone out to see around the palace but when he returned, he saw Zhao Ming sneaking around his place and was trying to peek inside the room through the half-open door.

He raised his brows in interest. He knows Zhao Ming since childhood because Zhao Bai and he was were very good friends and have grown together.

Zhao Bai and he have married two sisters from the same family as Zhao Bai's wife is Master Li's wife sister. They are not only friends but relatives also.

In this sense, Master Li was Zhao Ming's uncle also. So he knows her since she was a young girl and was always cheerful and intelligent.

He looked at Zhao Ming indifferently and saw her struggling to try peeking inside but when she was about to enter the room, he finally spoke and said, ” There is no one in the room.”

His lips curled upwards seeing her frozen body and expressions. He could see her stiffened expressions and her awkward smile which was uglier than crying.

He cleared his throat and walked towards his room and asked indifferently, ” Is there anything that I can help Her highness with?”

Zhao Ming turned to look at the old man with a grey beard and a white cap over his head covering his grey hair. The old man's face was covered with wrinkles and lines which can be shown on people's faces with their age.

The old man has that aura that could make other people feel intimidated by him and afraid of him. Zhao Ming was no exception.
