Chapter 506 - What About The Empress?

Xie Ming clenched her dress with her hands unconsciously. Her eyes turned misty seeing the familiar place in front of her.

It was Ji Palace.

Even though it was not the same as before, she can still recognize it. How can she not?

It's not a headstrong palace anymore but only his ruins had remained.

The palace has been destroyed and only the destroyed palace of bricks and pillars were all there.

" Let's go." Xu Lan patted her shoulder and asked her to walk where everyone had gathered and were waiting for them.

" Oh."

She got out of the daze and walked closer to the palace. In the eyes of others, it's just the ruins of a palace but in her eyes, it was a place where she has lived once.

She has seen the luxurious life of the place but now it has turned into nothing.

' Time is really a funny thing.'

This palace was built with luxury and grandeur as a remembrance for the future generation but who knew that it would become like this in the future.

" You guys must be curious as to why I brought everyone here, right? Since we're filming a historical movie, I thought it's important for you guys to know more about our culture and history. Even though our movie is not based on a true story and just fiction, knowing history will help you a lot."

Mr. Han looked at everyone and explained the reason he brought everyone here.

" So today, I have called someone to give you a tour of this palace and he will also make you aware of the history of this palace."

Everyone looked at the palace which was at the corner of the city but no one was aware of it. It was their first time seeing this unknown palace.

Yuan Lei frowned upon hearing Mr. Han's words. It's a hot day and he brought everyone to study at this place?

Xie Ming was not bothered by the heat but the fact that the palace has been destroyed and has lost its glory.

" Xie Ming, are you okay?" Mr. Han was surprised to see Xie Ming's red eyes and pale face. He wondered if it's because of the scorching heat.

She got out of her stupor and shook her head, " I am fine." She forced a smile while still staring at the palace in front of her.

Jian Yan who was standing beside Wu Sheng glanced at her and frowned seeing her dull expressions.

" Here he is. Everyone, this is my friend Gong Tian. He is a known historian and today he will give us a tour of this palace. I have especially asked him to tell us about the history of this place, so listen well." Mr. Han introduced a man who just arrived.

Gong Tian was the same age as Mr. Han but he is not well maintained like him. He had some wrinkles on his face and was showing signs of aging. He has a belly pooch but it didn't reduce his aura.

He was wearing a brown colored suit and a pair of large glasses which made him look more intellectual.

" Hello everyone. Since?you know my name, so let's not waste time in the introduction and let me show you around." Without wasting time he led them inside the palace to show them around.

…..

When Xie Ming stepped inside the palace from the entrance gate, her heart grew heavy.?Gong Tian stopped everyone to tell them about the history of this palace.

" So everyone, before we go inside and explore the palace,?let me tell you it's named first. It's called Ji Palace. It has been commissioned by the Emperor Ji Jianhong."

Xie Ming pursed her lips as she tried to control the surge of emotions building inside her. Because this palace has been commissioned by Ji Cheng's grandfather, the Old Emperor. He was the one who fixed their marriage and she had always respected him.

Gong Tian continued " This city has been the capital and center of trade and culture of Ji Dynasty. After Ji's?many other dynasties came into rule, but no one was as great and strong as the Ji Dynasty."

He tried to explain in a simple language so that everyone can understand.

Everyone was listening carefully but Yuan Lei frowned and said, " But I have never heard about the Ji Dynasty before. We don't know about this so-called palace which has been ruined. It's not that important, then why did we come here?"

Mr. Han: "-_-"

Gong Tian smiled and replied, " If you don't know about it, then it doesn't mean that this palace is worthless. This palace has the unique importance of itself."

" You guys don't know anything about this Dynasty because it's not included in the school or college courses. And that's because this palace has been discovered only recently and historians and archaeologists are working to build its history and want to save whatever has remained"

"No one knew much about the Ji Dynasty until they found this palace. This palace has been ruined that's why they didn't give much importance to it before. But recently they have found some written and archaeological evidence which can help in the building of its history."

" It's a shame that by now, nobody knew about such Dynasty."

" But soon everyone will know about the history of this place."

Mr. Han smiled when he saw others' expressions, mainly Xie Ming who continued staring at the palace in admiration.

But his expressions faltered seeing Yuan Lei's annoyed expressions.

….

" This Dynasty has been founded by the Emperor…."?he was interrupted by Xie Ming.

" Emperor Ji Jianhong" Xie Ming unconsciously answered.

Everyone was surprised, especially Gong Tian because people don't know about its history then how come she knows?

Everyone looked at Xie Ming with surprised gazes and Mr. Gong asked, " You..how do you know about it? " As they didn't do the introduction earlier, he was not aware of Xie Ming's name.

" She is Xie Ming. She is acting as the second female lead in my movie." Mr. Han introduced her with a satisfied grin. historical

Xie Ming pursed her lips and said, " I...I assumed."

Gong Tian raised his brows questioningly and asked, " It's history. How can you assume without knowing anything?"

Xie Ming pursed her lips and replied, " Erm.. didn't you say that he commissioned the Palace? So I assumed that he must be the one who must have founded the Dynasty." She replied hesitantly.

He thought about it and nodded thinking that it might be only her guess. After that, he continued, " Many rulers came in rule but the most important Emperor was Ji Cheng. The art and culture reached its peak in his time."

" There is some evidence about foreign trade as well. They not only had the trade relations with the neighboring empires but also with the empires of western countries like France, Britain, and Portugal."

Xie Ming smiled as he explained about the history of the Ji Dynasty and the achievements of Ji Cheng.

She knew that Ji Cheng would be a great Emperor but she had never thought in a wild dream that people will also admire him even after so many years.

However, there was not a single mention of his personal life or his family. Her lips quivered and she unconsciously let these words out.

" What about the Empress? Is there no information about his wife?"

She immediately regretted asking this question. Because everyone stared at her with strange gazes.

He was telling about the history of the Ji Dynasty but she asked about his personal life.

Yuan Lei sneered and said, " Xie Ming, can't you control your curiosity to yourself? Mr. Gong is telling something important but here you're asking irrelevant questions."

" It's not an irrelevant question."
