Detective Ghost Empress

Chapter 481: Give and take



" Your majesty, you need not worry," seeing that the Grand Dowager Empress was concerned about what took place at the Emperor\'s palace this afternoon, Ji Yang tried to soothe her worries. " The women selected this year are all fine young girls, I am sure that they would be able to move the heart of the Emperor."

The Grand Dowager Empress nodded as she rubbed the space between her eyebrows and said in a heavy voice, " I am not worried that those women would not be able to win the heart of Tian\'er. The thing I am worried about is whether or not we will be able to entrap the Empress this time around."

They have been trying so hard to make trouble for the Liu family but Liu Hui Ying was smarter even though she was a woman and unaware of what was happening around her, she somehow knew everything.

She did not rush ahead and nor did she make a blunder in her jealousy, what was more the people she sent to cause trouble in the Flower Selection Ceremony, all mysteriously got injured.

If one was to say it was coincidence no one would believe but if one was to say that someone deliberately did it behind their backs, there was no evidence.

The Grand Dowager Empress had been trying to put obstacle after obstacle in front of Liu Hui Ying but the latter seemed to be as slippery as a loach, every time she thought that Liu Hui Ying would be entangled in a mess, her plan would be ruined. Stay connected through m-v l|e\'-NovelBin.net

Just last night, she sent one of the maids from her courtyard to burn the warehouse where the ornaments to decorate the banquet hall on the Flower Selection Ceremony were placed but the one who ended up burning her hand was her maid. That wasn\'t all, the maid cried so horribly that she attracted the attention of the guards patrolling around the warehouse causing enough trouble for her.

It was a good thing that Ji Yang was present to deal with the matter and the maid was killed before she could open her mouth or else!

" The queen is lucky but she wouldn\'t be able to stay lucky for a long time," sneered Ji Yang. He did not understand how Liu Hui Ying was able to escape distaste every time, in the end, he could only blame it on her being fortunate as could never think that there were five ghosts including the one whom he killed helping Liu Hui Ying.

Even if he were to try poisoning Liu Hui Ying, she would be able to get hold of the poison within seconds.

The Grand Dowager Empress shared a heavy look with Ji Yang and asked, " Have you thought of something?"

Ji Yang only smiled politely at the Grand Dowager Empress and said nothing. This was a plan that he came after a very long and careful pondering, he couldn\'t allow it to get leaked which was why he lowered his voice and said, " Just leave everything to me, Your Majesty. I will not let you down, as the walls have ears we can only share the matter till here."

The Grand Dowager Empress also understood this, she nodded and allowed Ji Yang to leave while asking her maid to massage her back as she was feeling a bit stiff.

" Master, will this plan of yours work?" The trusted aide of Ji Yang could not help but ask with worry in his eyes. He was afraid that his master would make a mistake in his hurry.

Ji Yang waved his hand and then replied, " There is no need for you to be afraid. The Queen is wise but she is still a woman. As long as the matter is escalated, she would have to lose her life and that is ascertain and with our lord helping us, how can we make a mistake?"

Ji Yang trusted the lord and his family\'s saviour a lot. Since his lord said that this plan would work, he was certain that it would work, it was just that there were a lot of risks but without risks, there would be no grand rewards.

On the other side, Liu Hui Ying looked at the documents that were neatly arranged by Zhai Tianyu and seemed to have understood what trail of thought she needed to follow. With this piece of information, she would be able to choose the correct women to enter the place without offending anyone.

" How come you know so much?" She asked while looking at the detailed information on the private life of the women who were supposed to enter the palace. She sent her ghosts to track these women down and couldn\'t find anything.

Zhai Tianyu smiled at her before saying, " The reason is simple. You sent your ghost servants to collect information once these women submitted their application to the court as the contenders for the next concubine. Do you think that after submitting their information to the court, they will act recklessly? Of course not. They would act as a gentle woman who knows nothing about the world.

After all, in the eyes of the officials, a woman\'s incompetence is her virtue."

He then sighed and looked at the information that included dreadful information which included the killing of innocent people before saying, "  Zhen on the other have been keeping an eye on these women for a very long time, as Zhen knew that they would one day arrive at the imperial court."

When Liu Hui Ying saw the lonely expression on Zhai Tianyu\'s face, she couldn\'t help but feel sympathetic towards him. Clearly, he was surrounded by a lot of people but in the end, he was all alone as no one cared about him but only cared about the throne on which he sat every day.
