Detective Ghost Empress-Chapter 488: Dog man
Fortunately, Zhai Tianyu and Zhai Heng both were skilled martial artists. Under Liu Dong Ming's terror, the two of them learned a lot of skills which came in handy when they were in danger. Just like right now, the two of them stepped back and then looked down at the tip of the dagger that was protruding out of the sliding door.
Zhai Tianyu and Zhai Heng: "…"
For some reason, the sliding door which could be moved easily looked a bit heavy today.
" Your majesty," just as the two men were looking at the tip and thinking whether to retreat or advance, Xiao Ai's voice came from the corner of the courtyard. The latter was standing at the side of the big wall and motioning for Zhai Tianyu to come to her.

Zhai Tianyu: ".." No wonder the wise men used to say never to get married. Forget about my wife even her servant was treating him carelessly. He was the Emperor! Someone treat him with respect!
Though he very much wanted to say such words, when he thought about how there was an angry woman sitting inside the cold palace, he did not dare to say a single word extra. With Liu Hui Ying's temper, if he were to say such words, he would definitely not go out of the cold palace on his two legs.
" What is it?" Zhai Tianyu asked as he looked at Xiao Ai who was standing behind the cold palace. He saw the weeds and the overgrown grass that was covered with snow and swallowed hard, this place would be able to hold the cold right?
No sooner did he think this than a gust of cold wind fluttered past him and he heard a loud snarl, " What are you all doing? I told you to cut anything that you find and burn it! As long as it can be burned, burn it!"
Cut anything that could be burned? If so he could be burned as well.
A shiver danced down Zhai Tianyu's spine as he turned to look at Xiao Ai and waited for her response.
" Your majesty, her majesty…she…" Xiao Ai bit her lips as he looked at Zhai Tianyu and then hesitated for a while. Xiao Ai was scared to say the words and Zhai Tianyu was getting scared as he thought about what Liu Hui Ying said to her that made her this scared.
Xiao Ai closed her mouth and then opened it before raising her chin. She then stated in a gruff voice, " Your esteemed majesty, you better go back to your palace before I turn you into the dog that you are. Another word from your mouth and you will be barking for the rest of the three days." She did an uncanny mimicry of Liu Hui Ying which made Zhai Tianyu and Zhai Heng take a collective step back.
" This is what Her Majesty said," Xiao Ai lowered her voice and looked at Zhai Tianyu and Zhai Heng. " So it's best if you go back, your majesty."
Zhai Tianyu looked at the maid and then turned to look at the courtyard which was filled with desolation. He wanted to tell Liu Hui Ying that he trusted her and he only sent her here because he wanted to protect her for the time being, if he fought against Ji Yang and desperately tried to keep Liu Hui Ying in the harem then she would have been targeted by Ji Yang and the Ji family.
But when he thought about how he had to make this move without telling Liu Hui Ying anything, he could only sigh.
He turned to look at Xiao Ai and then said, " Take care of your mistress, I will try to get her out of here soon."
After he finished speaking Zhai Tianyu turned on his heels and then walked back towards the door but in the middle of his walk, he paused and then looked down at the dagger that was still embedded in the sliding door. A minute passed by and then Zhai Tianyu took out the dagger from the sliding door.
" What are you doing?" Zhai Heng asked upon seeing that his brother had taken out the dagger that Liu Hui Ying threw at them.
" Hmm, it can be counted as a gift from Her Majesty to me, right?" Zhai Tianyu replied with a wide smile on his face. " Though this is something that Her Majesty has thrown at me, I will take it as her love charm."
" She tried to kill you…" did his brother suffer through some sort of shock? What was he talking about?
Zhai Tianyu only smiled and then said, " Only those who love someone so deeply can think of killing. Maybe she loves me too?"
Zhai Heng: "…" Should…Should he be worried?
…
On the other side, Nanny Gong was shaking her head as she tried to pull Liu Hui Ying back.
" You can't! You cannot Your Majesty! If you hurt his majesty, then I will die here for you to see!"
She did not even in her wildest dreams think that Liu Hui Ying would dare to throw a dagger at the Emperor! If not for the fact that the Emperor was fast and dodged the dagger, the entire Liu clan including the two hundred servants would have been sent into exile! While Liu Hui Ying would have been executed!
" Let me go, Nanny Gong," Liu Hui Ying tried to push Nanny Gong off, with her face burning with anger. " That bastard dared to send me to the cold palace by lying to me! And now he dares to say that I love him? I will pull his tongue out for spouting nonsense like this!"
That man sent her to the cold palace and even took away her dagger!
How could Nanny Gong let her go? Right now they were only in the cold palace if she were to let go of the Empress, they would be sent to the yamen at an incredible speed!
