Detective Ghost Empress

Chapter 396: Get lost

" Your Majesty please help me," Xiao Lin did not have much confidence when it came to getting help from the Queen but she was sure that as long as his majesty was with her, she will be able to at least get a small meagre weekly contract. Even an hour was enough, all she needed was to talk with Ji Yu!

Seeing that Xiao Lin still did not understand the situation, Li Gang and the others shook their heads, the little girl was really a fool, she still could not see through the reality of her situation, and it did not matter whether she wanted to talk or see Ji Yu, a person who passed away had no rights to see their family much less converse with them.

It was only by relying on the power of their master will they be able to fulfil their wishes and when the master was someone like Liu Hui Ying, it was simply impossible for anyone to get even an ounce of spiritual energy without working as a slave for her for the next ten to thirty years!

What Xiao Lin was thinking in her mind was nothing more than a pipe dream.

" Should we stop them?" Grandma Lan Fen saw that Zhai Tianyu was sympathising with Xiao Lin and asked Li Gang and Jia Li who shook their heads and refused at once.

Li Gang wanted to see the pitiful condition of Zhai Tianyu and Jia Li thought that he was acting like those dumb CEOs in the novels that she read so she left him on his own when he gets chased out, he will know what he should and should not do but more than that she too wanted to see Liu Hui Ying getting angry at someone else, that way she will be able to suck up to Liu Hui Ying tomorrow morning and get some yin energy.

Zhai  Tianyu on the other hand did not know that he was being schemed against at the moment, he looked at Xiao Lin who was asking for his help, Ji Yu had helped him a lot, but there was one time when he was being bullied by others and was almost pushed into the hole where the waste of the imperial palace's bathing rooms were thrown if not for her help, he would have suffered a lot.

He asked Xiao Lin about how she died since he did not want to go to Liu Hui Ying without preparing himself but every time he asked what happened to Xiao Lin the latter would start crying causing Zhai Tianyu to purse his lips and turn silent in the end he heaved a sigh and turned to walk inside the tent while muttering to Xiao Lin,

" I am not asking this to hurt you, I just think that if I know about how and what happened to you, I will be able to fight for your case better," Zhai Tianyu could not understand why Xiao Lin was not willing to tell him how she died but in the end he could not force out an answer from her mouth.

Xiao Lin on the other hand did not dare to say anything to Zhai Tianyu, after all, she knew what she had done, and if she was to speak up now, there was a chance that she will irk the wrath of the emperor as well which was why she did not dare to say anything and simply lowered her head acting as if she was mute.

"What's the matter with you?" Zhai Tianyu was not a fool seeing that Xiao Lin was not speaking he could not help but raise his voice a little thinking that there was something that she was hiding.  " If you don't tell me the truth how will I plead in front of your Majesty?"

" Who are you pleading for your esteemed Majesty?" A voice asked from behind terrifying Zhai Tianyu so much that he whipped his head to look at the woman who was now sitting straight on the bed, it was just his bad luck that Liu Hui Ying was not only awake but she was also holding a lamp in her hands which made her expression extremely sinister causing Zhai Tianyu to flinch as he yelped in fear.

Seeing that Zhai Tianyu was scared Liu Hui Ying placed the lamp aside and then looked at the man who was standing in front of her before turning to look at Xiao Lin who shivered and then hid behind Zhai Tianyu, seeing the maid hiding behind Zhai Tianyu, Liu Hui Ying raised a brow and sweetly smiled before asking the same question again,  " I am asking you something your majesty, what and whom are you pleading for?"

Zhai Tianyu originally wanted to say that he was here to plead for Xiao Lin but when he saw that something was off about Liu Hui Ying, he did not dare to say anything. All he did was move his mouth a lot and stay silent, Xiao Lin looked at the terrified Emperor and understood that she seemed to have placed her trust in a sinking ship and smacked her hand on her forehead.

She thought that the Queen was scared of the queen but it was the other way around, and her missy thought that his majesty was in love with her majesty. He was clearly scared of her to the point that his legs trembled in front of her majesty! What kind of love? This was sheer submission before fighting!

Clearly, Liu Hui Ying was the one who wore the pants in this palace!

" Hmm?" Liu Hui Ying raised a brow and tilted her head at Zhai Tianyu who swallowed hard while trying to form comprehensive sentences it was after a long time that he was able to summon his courage and said, "It…its Xiao Lin…she died because of some reason and she wanted you to help her a little, will you… I mean can you do it for her, my queen?"
