Detective Ghost Empress

Ji Yang sputtered, he was so furious that he wished that he could take his shoe off and then throw it in the face of Liu Dong Ming. He was a married man, who had multiple wives in his harem, why will he fall in love with a man and as for watching him sleeping, that was a misunderstanding!

" You..we are sleeping in the open! Together that is, it's inevitable that we might end up looking at someone why …why do you have to make such a small thing sound so difficult? Who said that I am in love with you?" Ji Yang could not help but retort, he was worried that if he was to stay silent then another round of rumours will start the next morning.

Liu Dong Ming pushed himself off the bed, and his long hair cascaded down his waist like a veil of darkness which can even swallow the shine of the moon as he glanced at Ji Yang with a calm pair of eyes and then said huskily, " It was just a joke, why are you getting so agitated prime minister Ji?

Even if I was interested in man…" his eyes glanced at Ji Yang who was slightly chubbier than him and had a mean look on his face and added, " You are not my type."

With that, he pushed himself up the bed and tied his hair before elegantly moving towards the centre of the hunting grounds where the Gong was being beaten.

Ji Yang: "….." Thi…This man, I will kill him one of these days!

The men who were sleeping on the side did not dare to even much less open their eyes, Liu Yu Yang wanted to get up but Liu Yu Shan immediately caught his head and then pushed him back down as he said, " Keep sleeping, my son. If you want to live."

Liu Yu Yang: "….." But there is an emergency going on father?

In the end, even though they were being summoned by the Emperor, the officials all waited for Ji Yang to wash his face and then walk away. Only then did they open their eyes and looked at Ji Yang who looked immaculately dressed while following Liu Dong Ming who was carelessly walking in front and then silently thought in their heads,

' If they truly had an affair then Ji Yang will surely be the bottom.'

On the other side, The Dowager Empress woke up as well she heard the sound of Gong beating and then smiling turned to look at the grand dowager Empress whose expression was sullen beyond understanding.

" Did you sleep well, imperial mother-in-law?" The Dowager Empress asked as she looked at the elderly woman who glowered at her while being helped by her mammy who was nursing her frozen joints.

The Grand Dowager Empress looked at her daughter-in-law who was smiling and sneered, " You are indeed my good daughter-in-law, worrying about me so much after pushing me to sleep in the cold."

" Hmm?" The Dowager Empress tilted her head as she took a glance at her appearance in the mirror and then adjusted her crown before walking towards the Grand Dowager Empress, when she arrived in front of the elderly woman, the smile on Dowager Empress's face dropped as she said in a low, seething voice, " You should be thanking the heavens that I am only making you sleep in the cold…what you have done to me… I would have made you sleep in a coffin, old hag."

With that, she brushed past the grand dowager empress causing the latter to tremble in anger. So many years had passed by but this woman was still holding on to that matter!

The grand dowager empress trembled in anger but she did not dare to say anything, her daughter in law was used to acting high profile in fact it was right to say that her arrogance was something that could even touch the sky, in the past she had used this arrogance of her daughter in law to make a lot of trouble for her.

Because of this, the mask she wore was now that of a kind old woman who would withstand everything silently and will never show any kind of anger on her face if she was to suddenly start acting up she will only create doubts in the minds of others what was more, the mask which she wore was now so tightly strapped on her face that she could not even take it off even if she wanted to!

With her eyes flickering, The grand dowager Empress breathed in and out before she turned to leave. "Let's go."

..

The concubines along under Ji Yu's lead headed towards the centre of the hunting ground where Zhai Tianyu had once again set up a stage and was now standing on top of it while looking at the crowd which was standing beneath the stage.

" I apologise for waking you all up so early," Zhai Tianyu parted his lips as he smiled genially at the crowd which was looking at him beside him Liu Hui Ying stood calmly with her hands behind her back as she overlooked the crowd who glanced at her and then at Zhai Tianyu in confusion.

In fact, if the man who was standing on the stage was not wearing the crown which controlled them, they would have already asked what she was doing here.

" Your majesty, there is no need for you to apologise," Ji Yang solicitously responded as he turned to glance at Lord Chen who solved the case of Liu Fei Fei and then turned to look at Zhai Tianyu and asked, " But where did Lord Chen come from and why?"

The bridge was broken, if it was not then they would have gone back to the imperial city by themselves, they were still here —— trapped and stranded so how come this young man suddenly appeared when he wasn't here before!

Zhai Tianyu's smile widened as he arched a brow and then replied, " Why else? To flush the culprit out. As for how …." He turned to look at Liu Hui Ying and said, " You can ask him."
