Detective Ghost Empress-Chapter 489: A ruthless man
" Your majesty, I beg you! At the cold palace, we are free to do anything as long as we stay inside the courtyard. But if you are sent to the yamen then no one would be able to save you!
Ah listen to Nanny and calm down, I promise with Master Dong Ming … it will not take long for our family to get over this mess," Nanny Gong tried to soothe Liu Hui Ying, she knew that Liu Hui Ying was not angry at being sent to the cold palace.
She was angry at how she was sent to this place without any justification. What happened to the Liu family had nothing to do with Liu Hui Ying yet she was still sent to the cold palace. Everyone said that a married woman was like water spilt out of the house, why was it that when the Liu family was in trouble her mistress had to be sent to the cold palace?
Though Nanny Gong knew that with the Emperor's feeling, he must have sent her mistress here because he wanted to protect her but was this a matter of protection if her mistress felt that she was abandoned?
Liu Hui Ying looked down at Nanny Gong, though she hated to admit it she had to agree with what Nanny Gong said, even if Zhai Tianyu did not punish her, with how weak his power was at the moment, the others would definitely send her to the yamen.
" One day I will make him pay," she snarled before flicking her sleeves and heading back inside the bed chambers inside the cold palace.
Nanny Gong and Xiao Ai glanced at one another before they chased after Liu Hui Ying. The two of them were worried that if they left Liu Hui Ying alone, she might actually jump out of the window of the bed chambers and rush after the Emperor.
If it was someone else, they would think twice before doing something like this given that ladies would not dare to do something so shameful but with Liu Hui Ying, they could not be sure.
Fortunately, Liu Hui Ying did not plan to jump out of the window. Though she was brimming with anger, she was not a fool. If she were to really harm, Zhai Tianyu then it would bring her more harm than good.
But that did not mean that she would sit here silently waiting for others to come save her, though Liu Hui Ying did not hear the ins and outs of the matter, she was smart enough to conclude her own, after listening to the gossip that was happening around her.
From the sounds of it, the Liu family was in trouble because someone from the Liu family lost more than four million taels. If she could not prove that the missing taels had nothing to do with the Liu family, then Liu Hui Ying was sure that she would not be able to get out of this palace.
As for the details, she had to wait for the ghosts to return only then she would be able to get a good grasp of the matter.
" Your majesty…." Nanny Gong saw that Liu Hui Ying had stopped inside her bed chambers and heaved a sigh of relief. She looked at the pacing Liu Hui Ying and then said with a soft voice, " Your majesty, you need to preserve whatever strength you have, once we are in a cold palace…forget about living in comfort even three meals a day will not be provided to us properly."
" Heh, you don't need to worry about the meals from now on, the Emperor will bring our meal on time, himself!" He dared to let her go hungry then the five ghosts would be the first ones to go crazy, she was a celestial master.

Worst comes to worst she could stay hungry for six months but her ghosts were different, they needed spiritual energy every day, and if they didn't then they would experience divine cramps without her protection as punishment for staying in a world that did not belong to them.
With witch Mao and the rest of the ghosts, was she still afraid to go hungry?
If that man dared to make those five ghosts hungry then he could forget about even drinking water.
When Nanny Gong heard Liu Hui Ying's words, she thought that the poor Empress was still holding onto a ray of hope.
" My poor mistress," Nanny Gong shed a few tears as she covered her eyes with her handkerchief. Her little mistress did not know that men were heartless creatures, with old ones gone it did not take long for them to find a new one.
Now that her mistress was locked up in this cold palace and the Emperor was surrounded with all sorts of goblins how could he even have the heart to care about her mistress?
Xiao Ai also whimpered softly as if a kitten was mewling. She really despised the Emperor for making her mistress fall for him and then abandoning her like this, she would never let him off easily! In the future if she got a chance she would add extra chillies to the meal that belonged to the Emperor.
The two women had no idea that the reason Liu Hui Ying was this confident was not because of 'love' because she knew that the Emperor feared her, thus when she saw the two of them crying, Liu Hui Ying was speechless.
"Ya, why are you crying like I am dead? I said that the Emperor will bring us meals, so he will bring us meals what are you shedding tears for? Don't you believe in me?" Liu Hui Ying questioned with an annoyed look on her face. Was this something that could make someone cry?
On the other hand, her words only made Nanny Gong and Xiao Ai cry even harder. Their mistress was still holding on to that small flicker of hope, the Emperor! How could he be such a bastard? That jerk, abandoning their good mistress and having fun with goblins!
