Detective Ghost Empress

Liu Hui Ying was indeed filled with nothing but gunpowder at the moment, she was furious upon learning that the old man Tao was spreading rumours about her in the modern world and was coveting her promotion, what was more that bitch of a daughter of his actually tried to murder her! How can she be not furious?

She was so mad that it was a good thing that she was not running around rampant!

However, Liu Hui Ying was not a fool, she could understand that there was no point in getting angry at the moment. She did not have a way to return back to her own world and could only think of what happened when she was smacked at the back of her head, even if she was losing her consciousness, she did feel a string of yin energy getting inside her body, strictly speaking, the piece of Yin energy should have belonged to the original owner of the body she was occupying.

But instead of taking over this body that belonged to her, her predecessor actually refused to do so! Liu Hui Ying used her spiritual energy to take a look at her body that was lying in a coma for more than three days and realised that because of the lack of a soul, this body was on the verge of collapse and if only this shell was not empty then she could have stayed in her own world!

‘ Why does that woman not want to come back?’ Liu Hui Ying was going mad thinking about the answer to this question clearly this body belonged to that woman but she was actually refusing to take possession of this body. Why? And if she continues to do so then wouldn’t it mean that Liu Hui Ying will be dragged into this body again and again even if she repeats the action from the night when she was attacked and put herself in danger?

Liu Hui Ying could almost imagine herself falling unconscious in the middle of the streets if this woman suddenly got fussy and left her body because she did not want to continue living anymore.

‘ Damn!’ She cursed as she raised her hands and furiously rubbed her face, she has to look for that woman but now that she knew that the woman did not want to come back to her body, she understood why she was not able to look for the soul of this body’s predecessor. It turns out that the woman was actually hiding from her all along, now she was kind of curious to know whether the woman was killed by this man who was seated on her side or did she deliberately used the trick to end her life.

But if that was the case then why did the woman commit suicide and why in the world was she dragged into this world?

.....

Liu Hui Ying had a bunch of questions but it was just her luck that no one was there to answer her.

Never mind for now she was going to keep her head in the game and solve this case that was in her hands before starting to look for this woman’s soul again. She has to find a way to keep the soul of this woman trapped in this shell of a body lest she escapes again! But before that, she needed to teach a good lesson to that wicked thing that smacked her so hard that she saw her grandmother waving at her from the other side of the river!

And she was going to start with this idiot first!

She turned to look at the Emperor who was sitting on the side and asked, ” Do you know that one of your ministers contracted an evil being?”

Zhai Tianyu could see that Liu Hui Ying was angry at the moment, so he cleared his throat and then said, “… We came to this conclusion after thinking about what happened to you in consort Su’s courtyard, so yes I do have an idea that someone in the imperial court has gotten close to an evil being.”

” And did you find them?” She asked even further causing Zhai Tianyu to turn silent as he lowered his head and did not reply, it was not that he did not try to look for that minister who was involved with the evil being but he couldn’t find anything.

These past few days he has been eyeing his ministers so much and so carefully that everyone in the court thought that he was now interested in old men and wanted to try them which was why the ministers were now covering themselves from head to toe if not for the fact that they could not wear veils, they would have covered their faces with it as well.

But even after getting his name dragged into the mud, he did not get any piece of evidence to find out who was the one involved with the evil being.

Seeing that he was not replying Liu Hui Ying understood that he did not find anything and her face turned even more sullen and she could not help but say, ” Are you sure, you are the Emperor? Like someone contracted an evil being right under your nose and you couldn’t even trace them? Like wow. You are truly something your majesty.”

Zhai Tianyu, of course, understood her sarcasm but he did not get angry at her, in the end, he drew in a calming breath and then replied with a serene expression, ” I am sorry but when I was being enthroned I did not think that I need to learn the skills of how to become a ghost tamer, I will go and appoint a master as soon as possible.”

” Are you being sarcastic with me, your majesty?” Liu Hui Ying asked with narrowed eyes.

And Zhai Tianyu immediately lowered his head as he smiled at Liu Hui Ying and said, ” I am not my queen, just stating the facts.”
