When Ming realized her situation, she don"t know should she feel happy that she is alive or should she cry that she has now become an unwanted Empress overnight. She started laughing and then crying. She has no idea, why all this happening to her. She looked at all the guards and Lu s.h.i.+ who was scared to h.e.l.l and then she looked at Feng Ju who was staring at her blankly.
She thought to herself, "What a good fortune I have. Why my life has become a drama where all these nonsensical things were happening? What sin have I committed in my past life that all these things were happening to me?" She thought to herself while looking at those scared people who thinks that she is possessed.
Then she took a deep breath and said, " What are you all staring at. Go and sleep. I am tired." She said while waving at them to get out. They all looked at her in disbelief. Their well mannered and calm, Highness was behaving like some arrogant woman. It was not like her. In the past, she was calm and compose and was polite to others even servants. That"s why people take her as a pushover and many servants insult her because of Xiao Li and Empress dowager"s backing but now she was behaving out of the character.
When they didn"t leave, she eyed them said, " aren"t you get going?" When guards saw her angry face, they left the room quickly. They don"t want to get eaten by a possessed ghost.
But Feng Ju stood there at his place. Zhao Ming or you can say, Xie Ming, looked at him and raised her eyebrows. Seeing her, he respectfully replied, " Your highness, should I call imperial doctor? You just woke up from a coma after more than a week. "
She looked at him suspiciously and replied, " No need. You may go now." She shooed him by waving her hand. Feng Ju looked at her rude att.i.tude and was displeased with her behavior. He was the closest guard and friend of the Emperor, no one has talked to him like this. Even Empress dowager never behaved with him like this, but she is treating him like a lowly servant. He huffed and left the room. He thought, "I will tell the Emperor about this in this morning. Her highness must have hit her head, that"s why she is behaving oddly."
When everyone left, now there was only Ming and Lu s.h.i.+ left in the room. Ming laid on the bed and looked at the scared girl in front of her. She waved her to come closer. Lu s.h.i.+ hesitantly went closer to her and said, " Do you need anything, your highness?" She asked politely.
Ming looked at the cute little girl and sighed, she said, " Tell me, how long I was in the coma and what happened to me?" She asked nonchalantly.
Lu s.h.i.+ looked at her strangely but replied, " Miss, you were in the coma for more than a week. When you fell in the pond and were later rescued, your breathing was weak." she said with a heavy voice. Ming raised her eyebrows at her words.
" Then?" she asked,
" Every doctor has said that there is no hope and you cannot be saved but then, a suspicious woman appeared claiming that she can cure you, at first his highness was reluctant but later he allowed that woman to treat you. Because of that woman, your breathing became stable again but remained unconscious for long. All the imperial doctors have said that they don"t know when will you wake up. But today you finally woke up. " She said while wiping her tears.
Zhao Ming looked at her blankly and thought to herself, " Is that woman is the reason for all this mess? Is she is the one, who sent Zhao Ming in my body but why?" She has no idea why all this had happened to her and why her?
She looked at Lu s.h.i.+ and asked, " Where is that woman?"
Lu s.h.i.+ looked at her and replied, " Miss, that woman disappeared after treating you. His highness wanted to reward that lady but she just disappeared in thin air. n.o.body could find her." Listening to her words, Ming has no words to say.
She could not believe all these ridiculous things that were happening to her. She could just blame Zhao Ming for all this. Because If she hadn"t taken her body she don"t need to come here. She could still live in modern times, partying and enjoying her life. And she might have lived happily with Liwei. " Okay, maybe not happy. But at least she would not have to suffer like this." She thought to herself and sighed.
Then she looked at Lu s.h.i.+ and asked for a change of clothes as she was wet from the rain. When Lu s.h.i.+ gave her a set of fresh clothing, Ming frowned, " What kind of clothes are they? How am I suppose to wear them?" she thought to herself.
Seeing her confused expression, Lu s.h.i.+ offered to help her. She thought Miss must have injured her head that"s why she"s behaving like this. So she helped her change into fresh clothes.
Then Ming looked at Lu s.h.i.+ and said, " Now go to sleep. I will also sleep." Ming then laid on the rock hard bed and closed her eyes. She was h.e.l.l tired. She won"t know what will happen to her tomorrow, but for now, she wants to sleep.
Seeing Ming asleep, Lu s.h.i.+ also went to sleep. Today"s night was so much adventurous. In one night it feels like, her life has become 1 week shorter. Lu s.h.i.+ sighed and went to sleep.
