After having her fill, she stood up from the bed and wipes her hands with the napkin that Lu s.h.i.+ gave her. She looked at her and thanked her.
Lu s.h.i.+ smiled. " Miss is the same as before".
Even in the past, Ming treated her servants with respect and care. The people under her never suffer from any problems, unlike others where they were beaten up by their masters or abused by them.
That"s why her servants always respect her, but the servants of others, hated her because she treats their servants as their family but they were treated as less than an animal.
That"s why they sometimes insults her indirectly and talks bad about her in front of their masters in the palace, to show Ming her place. She never cared about these rumors before, and they took her as the pushover and does whatever they want.
Whenever Ming tried to retaliate against the schemes of other concubines or other people, they accused her of some other crime that she didn"t do it and was punished harshly. By the t.i.tle, she was an Empress but in respect, she is even less than a servant.
Remembering all this, Lu s.h.i.+ frowned. She always felt bad for her Miss. She is polite, beautiful and always good to everyone but they are always behind her to harm her.
Seeing Lu s.h.i.+"s troubled expression, Ming asked her, " What happened?"
Startled by her question, Lu s.h.i.+ looked at her Miss and replied, " Miss, do we need to go out? You just woke up from the coma, you need rest. And moreover...." she paused and looked troubled.
Ming raised her eyebrows at her and waited for her to continue.
" And moreover I don"t think it"s a good idea to go outside, what if we b.u.mp into someone and you get hurt? " she said in a wronged tone.
Ming looked at Lu s.h.i.+ interestingly and thought, "This girl, really has a wild imagination. Does she think that I am some porcelain doll which will break only by a single b.u.mp"?
Lu s.h.i.+ looked at Ming"s confused face, she sighed and continued, " Miss, if we went out and meet other concubines than they will bully you and I don"t want you to take stress. Miss, let"s just not go today. Please?"
She was really worried about Ming. She was not well and she don"t want her to take more stress because of the hurtful words of those concubines. Though her Miss pretends to be fine, she knows how hurt she would be.
How can one not feel upset. She was the Empress but even the low concubines have the guts to insult the Empress just because they were supported by Xiao Li and she has the support of Empress Dowager because of her family background.
When Ming saw her worried expression, she was reminded of YU mei. She was always worried about her and Liwei"s relations.h.i.+p.
Even though Ming was wrong many times, but she always took her side. She was very loyal to her. Or you can say "naive". Ming chuckled thinking about her. But she misses her. She was the only one, who was by her side when she came from abroad, even showing so many tantrums to her, she never left Ming"s side.
Thinking about YU mei, she felt upset.
She reached her hand to caress Lu s.h.i.+"s face,
" Who dare to bully me? I am the Empress. I can show them, the way to h.e.l.l if they dared to mess with me." Zhao Ming said with determination and arrogance obvious on her face.
" Hah. Those morons can insult me? In their dreams. I don"t care about my image, because it"s not even my real body. And I will show you, the position of an Empress is not only consisted of duties but I will show them my power ".
She said all this with a devilish smile on her face. She has shown Xie Xinyi her place many times when they were in school. But in the end, she always complains to dad in her old hypocritic way and as always he supports her dear darling, " Xie Xinyi".
But now it"s time for payback. Though she wasn"t interested in this at first but it seems exciting. This way, her life will become more adventurous. She can see the live period drama with her naked eyes.
This way, even if she ever went back, she can make a period drama of her story and it will become a blockbuster. Because no one would have such a deep period drama, because they only based it on literary sources but mine is first-hand experience.
"She had experienced this life herself, she was not in a dream."
