Detective Ghost Empress

222 Buried together

Liu Hui Ying looked at Zhai Tianyu who was pointing to his robe and asking her to take it off for him and narrowed her eyes as she said, ” Have you gone mad? What are you talking about?” She then glanced at the man who seemed to have rushed out of the bath and frowned even further. ” If you are feeling heated all of a sudden then you should go to your beloved concubine why are you here for? I believe she will be more than happy to help you.”

She did not see anything other than the robe that has been haphazardly worn by him and was thus very unhappy when she saw that the man was asking her to take his robe off.

Zhai Tianyu was stunned when he heard Liu Hui Ying’s response, he did not anticipate her to reply in such a manner which was why he looked at her in confusion for a while before he realised that she did not understand what he was trying to tell her.

Slightly flustered, he turned to look at her with an expression that was full of exasperation and turned around causing the ghost of Liu Fei Fei who was clinging to his back to come into view. ” I am not asking you to take my robe off, I am asking you to take this ghost off me! She has been clinging onto me like this for almost half an hour and I am on the verge of dying because of all the chills that I am receiving.”

He was not lying, a ghost being attached to his body was not a small matter as him being a man and a living one at that was full of Yang energy while Liu Fei Fei was full of Yin energy. Ghosts loved Yang energy which was why Liu Fei Fei was more than happy to stick as close as possible to Zhai Tianyu but for a living person having their Yang energy sucked off was not a good feeling which was why Zhai Tianyu was looking sick like he was on the verge of dying.

Liu Hui Ying looked at Liu Fei Fei whose expression seemed to be extremely contented as if she was living her dream life and then looked at Zhai Tianyu who was breathing heavily with his body stiff and taut like a bowstring that was prepared to snap at any moment and then said calmly, ” Do you have to be this ruthless she already died why don’t you give her some happiness such that she will be able to pass on to the next life happily?”

” Do you want me to die?” Zhai Tianyu asked as he turned around and dragged Liu Fei Fei who was clutching onto his robe to turn around as well, he looked at Liu Hui Ying who was looking at him as calm as a cucumber and asked, ” Do you know what will happen to you, if I die because of chills tonight?”

Liu Hui Ying shrugged and then said, ” What else? I will have to live as your widow right?”

Maybe if this man died then she will be able to move around the palace more easily than before.

.....

” No,” Zhai Tianyu laughed out loud as he glared at her and then said in a cold voice, ” If I die tonight then you, my queen will be buried together with me in my coffin. Alive. If this is what you want then be my guest!”

When he spoke these words Liu Hui Ying who was sitting languidly on the bed immediately sat up straight and looked at him with surprise in her eyes. ” What did you say?”

” I said that you will have to come down to the underworld with me if I lose my life tonight,” Zhai Tianyu was very smug when he said these words and noticed a flicker of unease in Liu Hui Ying’s eyes. Looks like this woman was indeed scared of something.

” Why? For what?” Liu Hui Ying could not believe her ears, she will have to be buried alive together with this man just because he died what kind of law was this? Does this not mean that her life was very closely tied to this man? She could of course run away but where will she go? Liu Hui Ying did not like the idea of living like a fugitive. She was a woman who liked her comforts and was not willing to hide in the shadows like a refugee.

” Because you are my one and only official wife,” Zhai Tianyu for once was happy that Liu Hui Ying was his official wife, if not then he wouldn’t have any leverage over her and she would have done everything according to her whims.

Liu Hui Ying was speechless, she did not like the smug look on the face of the bastard who was looking at her with a smug smile on his face and then turned to look at Jia Li who nodded and said, ” I did see this happening in one of the dramas if the Emperor dies then his wife will have to follow him into his tomb and then die there from starvation.”

‘What a man ruling world this was! So unreasonable!’ Liu Hui Ying cried in her head as he turned to look at the man who was looking even smugger after listening to what Jia Li has said, even though she hated men, Liu Hui Ying has to admit that this man was indeed one of the prettiest men she has ever seen, with those charming eyes and beautiful lips, he was one of the men who could make anyone’s heart thump——

What the ….? Why the hell was she thinking about how good looking this man was? Was it because he was smiling for the first time in front of her? Dear lord!

” Stop smiling like that,” Liu Hui Ying snapped at him causing Zhai Tianyu’s lips to drop down at once, she glared at him and then turned to look at Liu Fei Fei who was clinging on to Zhai Tianyu and said, ” Get down we are going to investigate the cause of your death.”
