Eternal Love: A Love Story

Chapter 268 - I Will Not Let My Ming Suffer In This Cruel Palace Anymore.

" 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."

Zhao Ming was listening to his words with attention and could see the sad emotions on his face.

She noticed his words, ' what happened before' and could sense that something has happened to him before he left the palace after the old Emperor's death.

But she did not say anything and just listen to his words.

" It was getting hard for them to save her but then a strange and mysterious woman came claiming that she will save Zhao Ming. Surprisingly, Ji Cheng allowed her to check on Zhao Ming and she was successful in saving her."

" But Zhao Ming fell into a coma after that. However, her life was saved. After that incident, no one has seen that woman." He lowered his eyes as if in deep thought.

" I have also heard about that woman from Lu Shi. Do you know who is that woman? And where is she? Maybe she knows something." Zhao Ming asked curiously.

Master Li pursed his lips as his expressions frowned.

Zhao Ming observed the change in his expressions. The man whose aura is very domineering and stern was not looking as strong as before.

His gaze was gentle and she could see the frown on his face.

" It was my wife? Shen Jia. " His voice was low and gentle when she spoke about his wife.

" But how did you know that the woman who treated Zhao Ming was your wife? Because you were not here either."

" I figured out when I heard about women's looks from people. The traits that they speak, it could be only my wife."

" Also….." he paused while speaking.

Zhao Ming got more curious when she saw him getting hesitant about something.

" Also..?" She asked him urging him to speak further.

" Also..I have suspected long ago that my wife, is not normal. She knows many things that ordinary people like us don't. Zhao Ming's mother and my wife, both are special child. "

" Though Zhao Bai and I never forced them to speak what they do not want to share but we know that they were special. That's why I never doubted how she was able to send Zhao Ming somewhere else."

Zhao Ming looked at him with a complicated gaze. She could not understand that he was not in the capital when everything happened to Zhao Ming and his wife disappeared.

But how did he knew that Zhao Ming was not in this world and was sent away? Her body was in a coma but her soul was not in the body.

" You want to know how I know about Zhao Ming and that you're not Zhao Ming?" He asked her as he raised his brows.

Zhao Ming was surprised when he asked her this question. Her mouth opened I'm surprise and nodded lightly.

She was surprised at how the old man figured out the complications in her heart.

" When I went to the place where my wife was living before and saw the house empty. The items in the house are all in the place but only Shen Jia was not there."

" There I found a letter written by her. It said, "I will save Zhao Ming from this hell-like life. I will fulfill my promise to my sister and will protect her even if I have to put my life on the sake. Li Heng, I am sending my Zhao Ming away from this world. If you get his letter, please don't try to find me. I will get back after fulfilling my promise to my late sister and brother in law."

" Just take care of yourself. I will not let my Ming suffer in this cruel palace anymore. I won't let her die in vain. She deserves all the happiness in this world and I will make her life happy."

" Please wait for me and also take care of herself. Right now Ming needs me more. I will make sure that she lives her life happily. Yours Shen Jia"

" This was her last words from which I got a rough idea about the situation and it confirmed when I heard about the strange things you did after waking up"

Zhao Ming did not say anything and just nodded at his words. She got to see the loneliness on his face.

She wondered how could he remembered his wife's words so clearly. It couldn't have been done if he had not read that letter for days.? He must have read the letter repeatedly that's why he remembered her words clearly.

She was feeling glad that Zhao Ming had an aunt like this who loved her so much. If not for her, she would've died like this and no one has cared about it.

She did not say anything and kept quiet. Now she knows that only Zhao Ming's aunt could clear her doubts.

But it seems that she has to wait for her aunt to come so that she could talk to her.

However, at least she now knows that only Zhao Ming's aunt can help her to go back or at least tell her what to do.

She did not say anything and just looked at the old man who was looking frail and lonely. The domineering aura seems to have disappeared.
