Detective Ghost Empress

237 is she even worth it

This was Ji Yang’s last attempt at coercing, he wanted to make use of the identity of the man who has always lived on the other side of the world and force Zhai Tianyu to hand the investigation to his family, he has worked so hard used so many tactics before he could get someone who could bring his family to the top.

That man has clearly told him that if he fails this time then he wouldn’t help me without double the price that he has given him earlier …just thinking about the price made Ji Yang’s scalp numb. He cannot fail, if he failed then that man will certainly make him do something even more sinister than he had to do the last time.

Zhai Tianyu wished to tell everyone that the person investigating the case was none other than Liu Hui Ying but he couldn’t do so because if he was to let this cat out of the bag then he will surely get Liu Hui Ying into trouble. Women were not allowed to interfere with the work of the imperial court, and even though Liu Hui Ying was the Queen of the imperial city if the matter of her interfering with the investigation were to come out then she will surely be executed for going against the laws of the imperial court.

How useless, Zhai Tinayu mockingly scolded himself. He was the Emperor of this imperial city, strictly speaking, he should have the power to let his wife do whatever she wants to do but instead of letting Liu Hui Ying do what she wanted, he was here sitting like a criminal whose hands were tied.

” I understand that you all have your opinion about this matter but I assure you that my dear friend is not someone who would do anything against me or our country,” Zhai Tianyu suppressed the anger he was feeling in his heart, he has of course expected this from the Liu family since they did like to push him into a corner but he never expected that the Ji family would do the same thing as the Liu family, funny how he thought that the Ji family was different from the Liu family.

All of them were the same!

” But your majesty——”

” That will be the end of this court’s session!” Zhai Tianyu interrupted Ji Yang and then raised his body from the throne before walking down the stairs that were in front of the seat of the throne.

He did not even look at Ji Yang who was looking at him with a twisted look in his eyes, one could see that the ministers of the Ji family were not happy with this outcome. The reason they wanted to take this investigation into their hands was because of fact that they wanted to get Liu Hui Ying involved they never wanted to investigate the death of Liu Fei Fei!

.....

Who cared what happened to that girl? She was useless from the very start!

” What now father?” Ji Mo asked his father who was standing next to him, he looked at his father whose entire face was stiff and frigid. ” The Emperor did not take the bait, is he going out of your hands?”

” He is not,” Ji Yang refused to admit that the Emperor was going out of his hands, after all, the Emperor’s powers came from the Ji family, and if he goes against them then he will be left with nothing. Even if he was a foolish man, he was not an idiot, he wouldn’t go against them for the time being.

Ji Mo hesitated and then looked at his father who was certain that the Emperor would not go against him. ” But what if he is trying to escape your grip? The Emperor has never gone against you and listened to everything that you say to him, why is he is suddenly going against you? Doesn’t it mean he has someone else backing him?”

Ji Mo’s words were like a wake-up call to Ji Yang who clenched his fingers and said, ” Go and investigate the Emperor, see what is he doing and …” he paused with eyes flashing with ruthlessness. ” If he is involved in something that he shouldn’t be then you take care of that matter …. And make sure that the blame falls on the Liu Family this time as well …just like before, make sure that the Emperor is disgusted with both the Liu family and that bitch who is behind these changes.”

….

” Are you being dimwit on purpose or are you trying to pull something else here?” Yu Lingyun asked Zhai Tianyu as he looked at the man who was sitting calmly on the chair of his study and looked at the latter with his gaze drilling into Zhai Tianyu. ” What is going on in your head? Why did you refuse Ji Yang? You do know that even if he is not Liu Dong Ming, he is not a smiling cat…he is a smiling tiger and he will be truly upset if you were to go against him like this. Are you not worried that he will start thinking that you are doing something behind his back?”

Zhai Tianyu pursed his lips and did not say anything, he simply looked at Yu Lingyun who was already staring at him before he parted his lips after a bit of hesitation and said, ” If I didn’t do that…then Ji Yang would have caught the Queen in a mess, I could not allow that to happen.”

Yu Lingyun stared at Zhai Tianyu for a long time before he let out a soft snicker and then that soft snicker turned into a big chuckle as he turned to look at Zhai Heng and said while pointing at Zhai Tianyu, ” Did you hear that? His majesty is showing off his cards that he has been hiding from his ministers for years just because of the queen!”

He whipped his head to look at Zhai Tianyu and hissed with a furious expression. ” Is she even worth this? She does not even give a damn about you!”
