Chapter 507 - Was The Empress So Impressive?

Yuan Lei frowned when Gong Tian cut her words and said, " It\'s not an irrelevant question."

She felt so annoyed seeing that even he is also defending her.

\' How can it not be irrelevant? What does an Empress have to do with history?\'

Xie Ming was just trying to get into good books of Mr. Gong since he is a close friend of Mr. Han.

" Ms. Xie Ming, you don\'t need to feel anxious about it. Your question was not irrelevant at all."

" But unfortunately I don\'t have an answer to your question yet. Because we don\'t have much evidence about his personal life or Empress. There is very brief information about Emperor Ji Cheng\'s personal life." He said dejectedly.

" But I can tell you that like other rulers, he didn\'t have numerous concubines. He did have several consorts and an Empress which was his first wife. Unlike other rulers, he didn\'t keep several concubines instead had several consorts because of the matrimonial alliances."

Xie Ming pursed her lips and nodded. Of course, she knows that. Because of his several consorts, especially Xiao Li, her life was never happy.

" This is all information that I have. There is not much information about Empress."

\' Of course, there will be no information. After all, she has already died.\'

Gong Tian told everyone about some more general history of the palace while showing around.

Xie Ming was in a daze all the time. She still couldn\'t believe that she came to see the palace...in the future.

" Mr. Gong, can we look around by ourselves now?" Yuan Lei asked as she was tired of hearing all the history now.

She really hated this subject but Mr. Han has to bring everyone here to study history.

He pursed his lips but nodded anyway. He has told them the basic history so now they are free to go.

After that, everyone went their way to look around the palace. Some went to the garden, some went to other random places to see around.

But his lips twitched when he saw Xie Ming going into a certain direction. Normally, people don\'t go that side because they don\'t know that there is something on that side as well.

However, he knows where she was going. He pursed his lips and followed her behind.

…

Xie Ming walked towards a specific location where her chamber used to be there.

She looked at her ruined chamber with her misty eyes. She felt emotional seeing that this was the same place where she used to live but now it\'s all ruined. There was nothing to look at it other than the broken pillars and debris.

She was overwhelmed with all the memories and time she has spent at the palace. She was startled when she heard someone\'s voice.

" Why did you come here?" Gong Tian walked to her and stood beside her.

She pursed her lips and said, " You said that we can go anywhere. So I came here. Is there any problem?"

He smirked and said, " You can. But you seem to be very familiar with this place for someone who came here for the first time. Generally, people go to see the main palace, public court, or other important spots but you came all the way here without stopping anywhere. It\'s very strange."

Xie Ming didn\'t turn to look at him and just sighed.

" I..just came here randomly. I don\'t want to go with others so I came here to get some peace."

He raised his brows in interest and nodded. He did not say anything further about it because she doesn\'t look like she wanted to talk about it.

" Didn\'t you ask about Emperor Ji Cheng\'s wife, about the Empress a while ago?" He asked with a straight face.

She didn\'t reply but a frown appeared on her face hearing his indifferent tone.

" I don\'t have much information about her but a month ago, we found a diary which allegedly belongs to the Empress of Ji Dynasty, the first wife of Ji Cheng," he said Ji Cheng because there are many Empresses of Ji Dynasty but he was talking about Ji Cheng\'s wife.

" However, we are not sure about it and it hasn\'t been confirmed that the diary belonged to the Empress since it\'s condition is no good. Many pages have been torn and some are very hard to read because of his bad condition but we\'re trying to read what\'s written in that diary. "

Xie Ming\'s eyes lit up hearing his words. However, a diary belongs to the Empress?

She never wrote a diary.

" It hasn\'t been announced to the public yet since it\'s not official. I am only telling you about this because you seemed to be interested in it."

Xie Ming clenched her dress and said in a low voice, " What..was written on it? Did you find out something?"

He sighed and said, " We didn\'t find out much since we couldn\'t read everything. But whatever we can find out by connecting all the evidence, it seems that Emperor Ji Cheng was a very interesting man. He loved his wife so much that he has broken many norms just to protect his wife." he chuckled thinking that even an Emperor can be a wife slave.

" He has made many changes to laws just because of his wife. And his wife also seemed to be a very progressive woman. She has questioned many conservative norms of society and because of her many positive changes were made to the society. And not only society but she has changed the harem norms as well. "

" That\'s why historians are very interested to know more about the history of this Dynasty. It will be like a revolution in history if people get to know about the history of progressive and open-minded Dynasty who has made so many changes in society."

"-_-"

Xie Ming was stunned. Was the Empress so impressive?

But she has died so early and in her life other than regret and crying, she hasn\'t done anything. Then who is this progressive Empress?

Did Ji Cheng really give the position of Empress to Xiao Li? But she can\'t be so amazing? Did they misinterpret something?

Her heart sank thinking of the possibility that Xiao Li must have become the Empress after her death. She knows that she has no right to think about that since she is happy in this world. But this was the only thing she did not want to happen.

The thought of Xiao Li as the Empress made her uncomfortable.

She took a deep breath and said, "Can...I see that diary?" She looked up at him with her misty eyes.

Gong Tian was surprised to see her misty eyes which made her look extremely vulnerable with her pale face. Due to the heat, her face has turned red making her look pitiful.

She looked just like his daughter who is very dear to him. He sighed and said, " But it\'s not something which anyone can see. It\'s a very confidential document on which the archaeological department is working to find out about it. Common people cannot see it. "

Xie Ming\'s heart sank hearing his rejection but her eyes lit up hearing his next words.

" But I can..show you the picture of the diary. However, you\'re not allowed to tell anyone about it. I trust you that\'s why I am showing it to you."

He was worried that she might tell anyone and it will bring him into a difficult position. He doesn\'t know why but he couldn\'t deny her requests.

She not only seemed to be curious about the history of the Ji Dynasty but she looked very emotional about it. He couldn\'t help but tell her what he hasn\'t told anyone yet.

She nodded seriously and said, " Yes. I will not tell anyone about it. I..I just want to know about it. I will always be thankful to you if you did this favor to me."

He pursed his lips seeing her seriousness and nodded. He doesn\'t why she looked so serious, but he agreed to it anyway.
