Detective Ghost Empress

161 got the fingerprints

” That woman worked as the aunt’s personal maid but when Aunt died that woman was accepted by the Wei family.” Zhai Cheng stated calmly as he too turned his head to glance at the maid who was standing behind the man who was drinking with a stance that was neither overbearing nor servile.

Liu Hui Ying leaned back on her chair and then tilted her head to the side, she carefully studied the woman who was standing next to the disciple of the Scholar Wei and then turned to look at Grandma Lan Fen who was standing next to her and said, ” Go and get me the fingerprints of that man and woman, make sure that you do not make a mistake.”

” I will definitely make you proud, boss!” Grandma Lan Fen saluted Liu Hui Ying before she floated in the air and then went to get the fingerprints of the two people who were involved in the matter of the murder of Zhai Chenguang.

Once Grandma Lan Fen left the temperature of the private room of the tea house where Liu Hui Ying was sitting with the others. Yu Lingyun whose teeth were chattering with the low temperature that was surrounding him. He was sure that if he continued to sit here, his butt was going to freeze and then it might as well stick to the chair.

” We did not wait for his majesty, surely he will be upset,” Yu Lingyun told Liu Hui Ying who was watching Grandma Lan Fen, the elderly woman’s ghost was waiting for a chance to get the fingerprints of the two people.

When she heard Yu Lingyun say those words, she turned to look at him and scoffed, ” You do understand that we are not going to have fun, don’t you? How can we wait for someone while we are looking for the culprit who killed Aunt Zhai? Today we were able to get our hands on this man, if we were even an hour late then this man would have left the tea house. And it’s not like we did not wait for the Emperor, it’s him who was late and made us wait for so long.”

‘ But you only waited for his majesty for less than five minutes!’ Zhai Heng and Yu Lingyun thought in their heads.

” It seems like my queen is rather upset with me causing a delay,” A familiar voice came from behind and both Zhai Heng and Yu Lingyun stiffened as they looked at Zhai Tianyu who was now walking inside their private room. He glanced at Liu Hui Ying who glanced back at him without so much as turning her gaze away from him and more importantly she even parted her lips with a haughty look on her face and then said, ” What ?”

Her tone was indeed rather bossy, no wonder those three ghosts were so scared of her. She was like the boss of the underworld, look at that haughty expression on her face, it was as if she was the Emperor and he was her eunuch.

.....

” Nothing,” He knew that there was no point in entangling himself in a squabble with the Queen and instead he turned to look at Zhai Heng and Yu Lingyun before mouthing. ” Coward traitors.”

Zhai Heng and Yu Lingyun pursed their lips angrily, look ...look at that! This man, he could not say anything against the Queen, so he was taking it out on them.

Zhai Tianyu did not even look at the two men instead he took a seat next to Liu Hui Ying who was watching a man who was sitting on the table at the bottom floor with rapt attention, even though the Emperor recognised the man as the disciple of the Scholar Wei, he still found Liu Hui Ying looking at the man for so long, quite annoying.

” My Queen,” wanting to get the attention of Liu Hui Ting, he called her from the side.

” Hmm?” Liu Hui Ying who was watching disciple Ren turned her attention to Zhai Tianyu who was looking at her. ” What’s wrong, your esteemed majesty?”

“Did you find something?” He asked, he himself did not know why he stopped Liu Hui Ying from looking at the man. It wasn’t as if her looking at the man would make him wear a green hat.

” I am trying,” Liu Hui Ying did think that there was something wrong with Zhai Tianyu but there was nothing she could do to make him spit out when he did not want, so she simply pointed to the young man who was sitting on the large table and said. ” I have asked Grandma Lan Fen to bring me the fingerprints of that man and his maid, who once worked as the personal maid of your aunt. She will be bringing those fingerprints to me at any moment now.”

No sooner did these words leave Liu Hui Ying’s lips, Grandma Lan Fen who was standing behind Disciple Ren walked inside the body of the man and then took possession of man’s body.

Disciple Ren who was writing another poem immediately paused when Grandma Lan Fen possessed his body.

” What’s wrong?” Seeing that disciple Ren has turned stiff, the other young men on the table were stunned but then their shock turned to surprise when they all turned to look at disciple Ren who was now painting his fingers with the black ink that was dripping at the edge of the brush.

” Disciple Ren??” One of the young men gawked at disciple Ren who placed his tainted fingers on the paper and then caused the paper to be stained with the imprint of his fingers.

Once Grandma Lan Fen was done getting the fingerprints of the man, she moved to the maid who too did the same thing and then had her press her blackened fingers on the paper.

The second the maid was done pressing her thumb impression on the paper, Grandma Lan Fen had her throw the paper in the trash can and then left the maid’s body. As for the aftermath of her actions, she left the two people to deal with it.
