Detective Ghost Empress-Chapter 385: A monster behind them ——2
" What are you doing?" Liu Hui Ying did not expect Xiao Ai to tackle her down like this, she turned to look at Xiao Ai who was holding her around her waist by looping her arms around and glared at the small girl, " What are you doing? Let me go! That mother tucker tried to poison me, I have every single right to tackle her down and then rip her hands out of her body!"
" You can't do that, your majesty"! Xiao Ai cried and even though she was being pushed by Liu Hui Ying who was adamant about chasing after the culprit on the head while her cheeks were getting squished with every push that Liu Hui Ying gave her.
" I know that you are upset but I am doing this for your own good, you are dressed in this flimsy robe that is transparent to the point anyone can see your body."
Liu Hui Ying looked down at the robe that was hiding only the important parts which would have been uncovered when she was bathing and then looked at Xiao Ai and angrily questioned, " Why does it matter? Is... Is this more important or catching the culprit who tried to poison me is more important?"
" Forgive my imprudence but saving your virtue is more important your majesty!" Xiao Ai cried while making Liu Hui Ying grind her teeth who tried to crawl her way out of the tent, her hands digging into the soil as she dragged her body forward, seeing this the other two maids Qi Qiao and Little Lin rushed forward and then placed their weight on Liu Hui Ying as well making sure that the latter will not be able to drag her body forward.
" You freaking annoying little——" Liu Hui Ying started to get seriously angry but then she heard Nanny Gong clear her throat and looked up at her with a bossy expression as she snapped, " Do you want to jump on me as well? Come and sit on my head, Nanny." She pointed to her head which was the only space left for someone to sit and caused Nanny Gong to turn red in the face.
However, instead of getting angry at Liu Hui Ying, Nanny Gong cleared her throat again and then said with an awkward look on her face, " I am afraid that these three are right your majesty——"
" Well of course they are!" Liu Hui Ying snapped as she glared at the elderly woman who sighed and then continued, " And that is because if you go out like this, we can't be certain about the maid who tried to poison you but I can certainly say that you will be the one who will be executed and that too by chopping your waist."
Nanny Gong tipped her chin at the thin waist of Liu Hui Ying that might snap even if she was to fall causing Liu Hui Ying to gape at her in disbelief she opened her mouth in an 'O' shape as she asked in a thick voice, " For what? For not getting poisoned?"
" No your majesty, as the Empress …only the Emperor, his Majesty, is allowed to gaze at your ethereal figure..if you run out like that it will be counted as cheating … and a woman who cheats on her husband is punished by being chopped into half and then her bottom is placed in front of her to see as a punishment for showing it to other men," explained Nanny Gong and the disbelief on Liu Hui Ying's face only got even more intense as she looked at the old woman with disgust in her eyes. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
" You guys have really serious problems right here." She pointed to her head while nodding to herself as she pursed her lips and scrunched her mouth. " I mean unless there is no whacking of the mole ..how in the world is that cheating? Just because someone peeped at me? Are we talking about some metaphysical touch or what?
What if I was wearing a loose shirt and bent forward in my carelessness and someone saw my wriggly tigglies… it will be counted as cheating as well?"
" Meta what ….?" Nanny Gong asked as she looked at Liu Hui Ying in confusion when she did not understand what the latter was saying but Liu Hui Ying only waved her hand and then said, " Never mind…" she turned to look at her ghosts who were waiting for her order and smiled at them with another disbelieving snort as she said, " Do you want me to kill you all? Again? Go and GET THAT MOTHER TUCKER!"
Almost immediately the three ghosts shot out of the tent like their bottoms were on fire. But unlike the maid, they did not have much problem chasing after Xiao Lin who was running deeper into the forest to hide, with Li Gang sniffing the scent he pointed in the direction where they needed to turn and thus they were easily able to keep up with Xiao Lin.
"Thirty-nine degrees in the west, right next to that big boulder!" Li Gang told the other two as he summoned his gun and flew over to the maid who was trying to run, he was hoping to knock her out cold but then as he chased after Xiao Lin, he suddenly stomped on the breaks and stopped just in time before hiding behind the big boulder.
Jia Li who flew after him looked at him in shock and then hissed, " Why did you stop here? Shoot that girl so that we can bring her back with us, or else Hui Ying will eat us alive."
Even Grandma Lan Fen thought the same as well which was why she was even more surprised that Li Gang who was the most reckless one among them was actually stopping at this moment. Did he not fear Liu Hui Ying the most? So why was he taking such a risk?
" I am afraid that if I go there then I will never return," said Li Gang as he pressed his thumping heart back in his chest with his back pressed against the boulder while pointing at the demon that was standing behind them. -
