Chapter 268 - I will not let my Ming suffer in this cruel palace anymore. (1/2)
” You can't meet her.” Master Li looked at Zhao Ming and said indifferently. His eyes were fixated on her and was watching how her expressions changed.
Zhao Ming who was about to sit on another chair placed in the room but froze in the air with her butt when she heard his words.
She was stunned and sat on the chair with a loud sound, ” Thump.”
” Why? Why can't I meet her? Shouldn't she explain to me why did she brought me here into this world and sent Zhao Ming there? Why Zhao Ming went into my body and I came into this world?”
She was annoyed because this old man was changing his words continuously.
One moment he knows about her, another moment he does not know anything. And when he told her that it was someone else who did all this, now she can't meet that person as well.
She was getting frustrated by his behavior. She was eager to know the reality of all this mess.
Because what happened to her was not something normal. She had read about these things like transmigration and rebirth in novels only.
This was something impossible in real life. But for her, it was her bitter reality. She got transmigrated to another world.
Not only that, someone else was living in her body. The most annoying thing is that she came into the past.
She could never imagine that one day when she will wake up and will become an Empress and had to witness all this harem system.
This was something that she has only read in novels and watched in dramas.
The most pitiful thing is that there is nothing in this world. She was not an unreasonable or irrational person.
She is just 'a little stubborn'.
She could not digest the fact that she came into a place where women's fate can be decided by men only.
There is no divorce, no law, nothing. The only law is the king or Emperor, which is her husband.
If it was some ordinary man, then she can plan to control him and do whatever she wants, but she can't possibly go against him.
He was the Emperor and he can execute her anytime he wants. Moreover, her biggest enemies were her mother in law which is an Empress Dowager and a princess of some country and dearest daughter in law of Wen Xu, Xiao Li.
She has never thought even in the wildest dream that she could survive without her phone, wifi and air conditioner.
After coming to this world, she realized how progressive her world and era was. There was law and order and also the woman was much more progressive than here.
At least they had a right to choose their life partners and to work. They were financially independent and do not need to depend on a man for anything.
But here, women were dependent on their husbands or sons for everything. Their lives have no meaning other than being someone's wife or mother.

Master Li looked at the way Zhao Ming grumbled and furrowed his brows. Her piercing voice was making his ears itch.
” So loud.” he used his pinky finger to itch his ears as he furrowed his brows.
Zhao Ming: ” - _-”
The man's attitude was making her more furious. It was the most crucial time for her and he was mocking her. His casual attitude was making her grit her teeth in frustration.
” I don't know either. She has disappeared after Zhao Ming went into a coma. I don't know her whereabouts. But I know, she will come back to me one day.” he finally spoke as his expressions gotten serious.
” But how did she get disappear? Aren't you worried if she was fine or not? ” she also got serious seeing his expressions and asked worriedly.
She could feel sadness in Master Li's eyes. Though he was trying to be strong and heartless, she can feel his love for his wife.
His eyes soften whenever he speaks about his wife.
” I don't know much either. I was in the mountains away from the luxurious life and was searching for new medicine and herbs when Zhao Ming fell into the pond.”
” When I got the news I came back to see her but realized that she was in a coma. I didn't enter into the palace at that time because I do not want to enter this cruel palace after what happened before.”
” But I heard about what happened to Zhao Ming and how she tried to suicide. I had a few people who work in the medicine department in the palace and they told me about her condition.”
” They also told me that when Zhao Ming fell into the pond, after that no one can find the cause of her falling into the pond. Her condition couldn't worsen to this state just by falling into the pond.”
