Detective Ghost Empress

149 Zhai Chenguang’s tomb

” You are thinking too much,” in the end Jia Li could not help but say as she blinked her eyes and looked at the man who was insistent on blaming Zhai Tianyu even though he had done nothing to hurt Li Gang, not like Zhai Tianyu could have done anything to him anyway.

” I am not thinking too much,” Li Gang rolled his eyes, he has seen too many men like Zhai Tianyu. They knew that the woman in front of them was out of their reach but men like these couldn’t help but be attracted to her because even if he was to ignore it Liu Hui Ying was a very charming woman, one whom no man can ignore. If not then so many men who were refused by Liu Hui Ying would not have come together to harm her from time to time, with her wit and beauty, she was a complete package in herself.

Even if Zhai Tianyu knew that Liu Hui Ying was someone who will not accept him, it does not mean that he will be able to rein on his feelings for a long time and sooner or later this man will surely start to pursue Liu Hui Ying strongly.

” You can take it as I am speaking nonsense but that does not mean that I am going to ignore this,” Li Gang was sure that he has caught the tail of the Emperor who acted like he was above all, he was sure that the man had some sort of feelings for Liu Hui Ying because that was the only way to explain the soft glare in his eyes.

Soon the palanquin bearers came bearing two separate palanquins and sat them down in front of the Emperor who was helped in the palanquin by the bearers while Liu Hui Ying ignored the outstretched hands of the man and sat down on the palanquin by herself, the last thing she wanted was a man to touch her.

Her actions of jumping straight into the palanquin startled the bearers as they carefully peeped at the Emperor who did not seem too surprised and waved his hand as he said, ” Go to the tomb of our aunt, Zhen wants to pay respect to aunt together with his friend, Sir Tang here.” He did not know how to introduce Liu Hui Ying, so he could only introduce her as one of his friends, after all, if he was to say that she was someone special then his mother would come knocking on his door and the left prime minister Liu will come to gouge the real identity of Liu Hui Ying.

Not that he wouldn’t now but at least he will be able to handle this situation.

The palanquin bearers did as Zhai Tianyu ordered after all there was nothing new with the Emperor trying to pay respect to his aunt, he has been doing this ever since his aunt died.

With the palanquin bearer heading towards the tomb of Zhai Chenguang, the news of the Emperor heading towards the tomb also spread all over the imperial palace and as soon as Dowager Empress heard about it from her nanny, the cup in her hand was smashed on to the ground.

.....

” Your majesty, please don’t harm your health,” the mammy rubbing Dowager Empress’s shoulders cried when she saw that the Dowager Empress has thrown the teacup in her hand on the floor, she knew that the Dowager Empress hated the Ji family and the grand dowager empress which was why it was normal for her to get angry at the news but she still didn’t think that it was good of Dowager Empress to get upset like this.

” Hah, who cares whether we live or die? His majesty is our son but he does not visit us instead he visits that old hag and that dead bitch far more than he does us, the last time he came to see us was when it was the new year and ever since then he hasn’t come to our courtyard if we were to ignore the time when he came to call Hui Ying” Dowager Empress was furious when she thought about how her son didn’t pay any attention to her.

” His majesty has been hoodwinked by that bitch from the Ji family, your majesty,” the mammy hurried to pick up the shards of the tea cup such that no one will get hurt as she cajoled Dowager empress. ” If not for Grand Dowager Empress making a move so many years ago, his majesty would have seen the true face of the Ji family long ago.”

” A bitch is a bitch no matter what,” Dowager Empress agreed as her eyes flashed ruthlessly. ” That Ji Yu is no different from that bitch who made our life hell, we hope that Hui Ying will be able to win the heart of his majesty or else she won’t even know what will happen to her life. Maybe she will lose her child and husband as we did in the past.”

....

While the Dowager Empress was raging in her courtyard, Liu Hui Ying arrived at the tomb together with the Emperor, the two of them came down the palanquin and then Zhai Tianyu sent the palanquin bearers away from the tomb. ” Stay there and keep your distance for the time being and only come here when we call for you.”

The palanquin bearers all lowered their heads as they accepted their orders and then turned to walk away from the tomb while Liu Hui Ying walked inside the small tomb that was built at a certain distance away from the imperial family on the ground where the members of imperial were laid to rest.

Zhai Chenguang’s tomb was simple with a coffin sitting in the middle, there was a portrait of Zhai Chenguang hanging on top of the tablet with a bunch of incense burning in front of the tablet, as soon as they arrived at the tomb, the caretaker of the place came running as he burst inside the small tomb and then kneeled behind the two of them while shouting loudly, “This lowly one, greets his majesty!”
