Detective Ghost Empress

325 An interruption

Liu Hui Ying was surprised as well, she has been allergic to men ever since she saw her sister getting killed at the hands of a man along with her past experiences taking a toll on her mind. With her sister’s soul inside her, it only made things even worse for her since she could not get closer to a man without wanting to kill him.

Her sister’s grudge together with her psychological barriers made her situation worsen which was she slowly started to disdain and show allergic reactions to me when they approached her. But this time even when the Emperor was this close to her, she did not burst out in rashes nor did she feel icky with his closeness was this because she was no longer holding him accountable for the death of this woman’s death since she knew that there was an even deeper secret attached to the death of this woman?

And was this man this close to her earlier? A thought came into her head as she felt Zhai Tianyu’s face come a bit closer to her.

” That, your majesty——” she opened her mouth ready to push the man away since he was getting too cosy with her but she did not get a chance to do that because at that moment a person who was watching the happening inside the building that was used to train soldiers barged inside.

” Your majesty!”

The spell that was cast on Zhai Tianyu and Liu Hui Ying broke as the two stepped away from each other. Zhai Tianyu who did not know what he was doing just now turned to look at Ji Yu who was standing at the entrance of the building, her chest heaving up and down as she looked at him as if he has betrayed her.

Maybe he has, he promised Ji Yu that she will be the only woman by his side but that was because he never considered that there will ever be a woman who will move his heart and now that she was here, the promise that he made to Ji Yu seemed like a joke.

” Consort Ji, it seemed like you came here in a hurry, are you all right?” Zhai Tianyu asked though he felt guilty about breaking his promise to Ji Yu, there was nothing he could do anymore. His heart was not in his control, he wished it was but feelings did not stem from control and it was something he hated all his life.

He was under the control of the imperial court even before his death, his mother who wanted to make him the Emperor plotted and schemed against her own son while his father tried his best to fight against her only to lose his life in the process when he grew up, it was the officials who controlled every action of his.

.....

Control—— this word brought an undeniable disgust in his heart every time he thought of it which was why he would rather break his promise than control something that he couldn’t, his heart was tipping towards the Queen not as a colleague or a partner who was working together with her but as a man, he craved her and wanted to possess her body and soul since he knew she was the one who was worthy enough to stand next to him as his equal instead of his weakness.

“I have something that I need to say to you, your majesty,” just now Ji Yu came looking for Zhai Tianyu, she wanted to ask him why he did not come to the Ji family’s ceremony which brought her so much embarrassment. After walking around and asking the servants she found out that the Emperor was at the training field which was why she heaved a sigh of relief thinking that he was here alone practising sword and he really wanted to just teach a lesson to the Ji family for lying to him.

But who would have thought that as soon as she came here, she would see Zhai Tianyu ever so closely to Liu Hui Ying? Her chest which just stopped hurting started to throb again which was why she had paused in her stride since she feared she would say something she shouldn’t but then she saw Zhai Tianyu lean in further like he was going to kiss Liu Hui Ying and that was when she could not stop her feet from rushing towards him.

Liu Hui Ying might be a dunce when it came to the matter of love and affection but she was not stupid, she knew how crazy Ji Yu was for Zhai Tianyu having witnessed how the latter got upset at her just because she took a walk in the garden where Ji Yu and Zhai Tianyu met before their wedding.

So, of course, she knew that the woman must be upset with the idea of watching Zhai Tianyu stand so close to another woman even if it was because he was removing a strand of hair from her eyes.

Not wanting to get burned in the fire that was going to burst forth any second now, Liu Hui Ying clapped her hands and then turned to bow in front of Zhai Tianyu who was now looking at Ji Yu who appeared in the training field uninvited and without even an announcement of her arrival. ” Then this one will be taking her to leave now, your majesty.”

‘ Hurry get away from here before you get burned,’ she thought in her head as she twisted on her feet and rushed out of the training field. As she left two gazes locked on the back of her head, one that was filled with envy and one that was filled with adoration.
