Detective Ghost Empress

Chapter 128



Zhai Tianyu was indeed really flustered, he has never been teased by a woman before but today Liu Hui Ying treated him like a little boy and asked him to stay put, a part of him wanted to retort but then he was stopped by his aunt and the three ghosts who told him silently that it was better for him to silently accept what she was telling him to do.

Even though Zhai Tianyu did not want to listen to her, he had to agree with her suggestion that she has given. Once he agreed, Liu Hui Ying simply asked him to leave her alone and he was more or less pushed out of her sleeping room by the three ghosts who told him that it was late in the night and that he should be sleeping in his chambers.

Though the words they told him sounded nice even an idiot could see that they were kicking him out! He, the husband and the Emperor of this entire country was kicked out by his wife whom he legally married and brought to his palace! He couldn’t even tell someone about this, if he was to tell them, he will surely become a joke!

And more importantly, what was even worse was that she called him a good boy...what was he? A small kid who needed her coaxing him? How dare she treat him so lightly!

Zhai Tianyu was furious, no he was enraged!

” Tianyu, calm down,” Zhai Chenguang who finally found someone with whom she could talk with has followed after her nephew, she wished she could talk with Liu Hui Ying who was looking for the culprit behind her murder but then she looked at Liu Hui Ying who was like one of the scariest and difficult people to talk with and decided to chase after her nephew, compared to Liu Hui Ying, her nephew was less scary.

Zhai Tianyu at first paused, he was still not used to seeing his dead aunt in front of his eyes like this, so when he heard her speak, he was a bit startled but then he closed his eyes and then nodded at his aunt who was standing in front of him. ” I am calm, I am very ...” he banged his hand on the table when he remembered how Liu Hui Ying called him a little boy and then repeated what he was saying earlier, ” I am really very calm.”

Zhai Heng and Yu Lingyun frowned as they looked at Zhai Tianyu who was turning red like a tomato with anger and then walked over to his side before they walked over to the study table where Zhai Tianyu was sitting and took a seat in front of him.

.....

Yu Lingyun who did not know that Zhai Chenguang was standing next to him sat down on the chair on the left and ignored the chill that was rising in his heart as he looked at the tantrum-throwing Zhai Tianyu and asked, ” So what did the queen say to you this time?”

” How do you know that the queen said something to me? Were you spying on me?” Zhai Tianyu asked with a sharp glint as he looked at Yu Lingyun, thinking whether he should just rip the tongue of this friend out of his mouth because he couldn’t allow him to spread the word that he was called a ‘good boy’ by his wife in the palace.

Though Yu Lingyun did not know why Zhai Tianyu was acting in such a manner, he was rather smart and his luck has always been on his side most of the time which was why he was able to sense the incoming danger that was heading his way. He blinked his eyes and nervously swallowed before he looked at Zhai Tianyu and answered, ” Because you only get this angry when the queen says something rude to you, your majesty.”

He studied Zhai Tianyu who was studying him right back like a hawk eyeing its prey, Yu Lingyun was worried that if he said something wrong just now then it will be his head and Zhai Tianyu’s sword. But then Zhai Tianyu looked away from him and he heaved a sigh of relief, looks like he managed to escape the calamity this time.

” She did not say much to me,” Zhai Tianyu absolutely refused to let anyone know that he was called a good boy, which was he deliberately ignored the part and told Zhai Heng and Yu Lingyun everything that the Queen has told him, at first Zhai Heng and Yu Lingyun were surprised, a part of them did not want to believe what Liu Hui Ying had told them but then they remembered her powers and immediately all their objections were silenced.

Zhai Heng’s expression was rather sombre, he looked at his younger brother and then asked with a stern voice, ” This ...does the Queen also knows who was the one behind the assassin? If so shouldn’t you have asked her who it was?” He was furious upon finding out that his aunt with whom he has played when he was a child was killed by someone, if it was left to him he would have gone to look for the person who was behind this on his own.

” The Queen told me that she does have a lead of who was behind,” replied Zhai Tianyu snapping out of his anger when he heard his brother asking him the question. His eyes glinted with a sharp gleam as he clenched his fingers on the dagger that was sitting inches away from his hand. ” But she refused to tell me anything.”
