Detective Ghost Empress

23 Bottom low

” You will what?” For a second even Zhai Tianyu thought that he might have misheard her, did she really say that she was going to walk all the way to the grand dowager palace? Was she really serious?

Nanny Gong noticed the stunned expression on the face of Emperor’s face and then the stubborn expression on the face of the Empress before she carefully trotted to Liu Hui Ying’s side walking through Grandma Lan Fen and shivering when she felt a chill crawl up her spine. Turning around she looked at the spot where she just walked past, what was that?

” My, My she seemed to have been scared by me,” Grandma Lan Fen chuckled but took a step away from where she was standing when she noticed that Nanny Gong was carefully stretching her hand to touch her.

” Of course, she just walked past you, she should be scared no matter what,” said Li Gang. Walking past a ghost was not a pleasant feeling, as far as he knew it was like being pressed by an ice boulder for a millisecond. Even if humans couldn’t see them, they could at least sense their presence, so it would be surprising in case Nanny Gong wasn’t scared.

The three ghosts took a few steps back simulator and Nanny Gong who didn’t feel a similar chill crawl up her spine also left the matter in the back of her head as she turned to Liu Hui Ying and tugged at her spine before saying, ” Your majesty, the palace of Grand Dowager Empress is at least three kilometres away from here. How will you walk that far? Isn’t it better for you to take the palanquin?”

Three kilometres? She might die after walking for that long with this damn crown on her head but —

Liu Hui Ying turned to look at the palanquin that looked like a fking lovers’ seat and decided to hold on to her will. There was no way she was going to sit on the dumb palanquin with that damned Emperor! Last night that man gave this stupid woman a poisonous wine who knows what he might be planning right now?

And what’s more, if she really went down to sit next to her then it will be her funeral!

“I will walk,” Liu Hui Ying gritted out, she didn’t want to itch to death so even if that palace was thirty kilometres away she would have still chosen to walk to that palace. So, a three kilometres distance didn’t scare her!

.....

With her determination rejuvenated, Liu Hui Ying picked the long skirt that was trailing on the ground up to her shins ignoring the ‘oh mys’ and ‘oh dears’ and said, “Let’s go!”

” Your majesty you cannot raise your skirt like that!” Nanny Gong almost fainted when she saw Liu Hui Ying raise her skirt like that, what the hell happened to her elegant and noble missy?

” Your majesty, please wait for us!” Qui Ai chased after Liu Hui Ying who was walking ahead of them acting as if she couldn’t hear a thing that they were saying and dragged the swooning nanny Gang together with her.

The Queen’s procession rushed after her while the Emperor who came to escort his queen was left behind.

” She...She really left like that?” General Yu stared at the Empress who was walking ahead of them with a stunned expression on his face. What the hell happened to the most graceful daughter of the Liu family? Didn’t they say that Liu Hui Ying was their most carefully raised daughter and that she was a woman who knew what she could and could not do? So why was she suddenly doing something so unladylike?

“Carefully raised? More like carefully riled,” muttered Zhai Heng while looking at Liu Hui Ying sideways. “She looks like she wants to kill us and if not for our positions and powerful stature, she really would have jumped on us.”

” And you two said that I was joking when I told you this last night,” pointed out Yu Lingyun as he rolled his eyes and looked at Zhai Tianyu as he asked, ” What now? If the Empress is not in love with you what are we going to do now?”

Zhai Tianyu didn’t say anything, he looked at the back of the woman with an indescribable expression on his face before calmly muttering under his breath, ” Allergic to men was it?”

” Your majesty, please take a breath and calm down!” Nanny Gang chased after Liu Hui Ying who was climbing the stairs of the Grand Dowager palace and fanned her with a handkerchief as she tried to stop the latter from climbing the stairs anymore. ” Your face is turning red, please stop and take a breath.”

” And whose fault do you think it is huh?” snapped Liu Hui Ying as she snatched the handkerchief from Nanny Gang and wiped her face. Whose idea was to make this place this big? Why did they have to make this entire place as big as a freaking city, what was more they did not even have signboards placed on every corner and turn, she had to double back at least half a mile before she was able to find this palace.

What was even more annoying she has to carry so much weight on her shoulders!

” Maybe you should have taken the ride with the Emperor,” said Nanny Gang with a hesitant expression. ” The Emperor might be rash sometimes but he is a good man, he treats his concubines really well.”

” Can you like stop telling me about how well he treats other women? It is going to make me puke.” Liu Hui Ying turned her head sideways and rolled her eyes at nanny Gang, she of course knew that the Emperor was a philanderer but there was no need for Nanny Gang to repeat the same thing over and over again, it was making her annoyed. Like she needed any other reason to hate that man! Her impression of that man was already bottom low! You see!
