Detective Ghost Empress

Chapter 461: World’s most dangerous words —— you have gotten fat ——2

----------------------

Sparks flew inside the courtroom and Zhai Tianyu felt his head throb. Sometimes he wondered whether Ji Yang and Liu Dong Ming were cat and mouse in their past lives, they couldn't stay put without fighting even for a day!

Of course, Liu Dong Ming must have been a cat who teased and taunted Ji Yang, the mouse given how Ji Yang was always in a compromising situation with Liu Dong Ming.

" Ministers, I am glad that you are willing to be so fair and just in such a situation but I am afraid that we do not have the time to worry about the matters of the past," as he spoke Zhai Tianyu waved his hand carelessly as if annoyed with the fact that the case of Lord Qin was being dragged like so far.

" We need to focus on preparing for the winters, we cannot allow our people to die because of cold which is why Lord Qin's case shall be closed as Zhen, rewards him with execution for putting the pride of our dear minister in jeopardy as well as killing our beloved concubine!"

Ji Yang heaved a sigh of relief when he heard Zhai Tianyu's order, fortunately, he raised this boy well or else he would have been severely affected by this ordeal! As he thought of this, Ji Yang turned to look at Liu Dong Ming with a proactive look in his eyes but the latter did not even glance at him, he was looking at Zhai Tianyu with some thoughts hidden deep in his eyes.

Clearly, this was a good opportunity to smack Ji Yang back to his place and suppress him as well but Zhai Tianyu let it go just like that —— was it because he was scared or was it because he was planning to make a big move in the future?

Liu Dong Ming's turned his gaze away when Zhai Tianyu looked at him as he tapped his fingers on the side of his leg. If it was the latter then it was fine but if it was the former then maybe he should think of a way to get his daughter to divorce this man.

His Hui Ying deserved better than a mouse who only knew how to squeak.

Second official Liu looked at Zhai Tianyu and then turned to look at his eldest brother and whispered in a slow voice, " Brother what is the matter with his majesty? He can clearly use this opportunity to whip prime minister Ji in place, so why—— ouch!"

He was still speaking when Liu Dong Ming turned around and flicked him on the forehead causing Second official Liu to whimper in pain as he gazed at his brother with teary red eyes. Liu Dong Ming glanced down at his brother who seemed to be crying and then spoke in a reprimanding voice, " Your mouth seems to have turned loose, Xue Yan.

Go and get your punishment at the ancestral hall, you are not allowed to eat for three …."

Liu Xue Yan waited with bated breath as he was afraid that the most dangerous punishment was going to be handed to him and sure enough, he heard Liu Dong Ming say,

" Hours."

" Brother!" Liu Xue Yan's tears became even more round and fatter when he heard his brother's voice. " You know I need my snacks."

" Your mouth is getting bigger by the minute since you keep stuffing it. You shall not eat for the next three hours and if you speak more I add another hour," Liu Dong Ming threatened causing Liu Xue Yan to purse his lips as he glared at him.

Fine! I will go and complain to my cousin! His cousin, Qing He will surely help him! Hmph!

Zhai Tianyu had been keeping an eye on Liu Dong Ming in the past he did not care about this minister of his since he thought that he was indeed as cold and detached as Ji Yang told him.

But now that, he heard the small squabble which went between Liu Xue Yan and Liu Dong Ming, he could see that prime minister Liu seemed to be quite caring toward his family, unlike Ji Yang who would abandon them at the smallest trouble.

….

" Did you hear your majesty, the Emperor ordered for official Qin to be executed," Xiao Ai who returned from the kitchen told Liu Hui Ying as she set down the tray of snacks on the table in front of Liu Hui Ying. " I heard that Minister Qin will be decapitated at the Main Street of the capital."

Liu Hui Ying did not even bother raising her head as she took a bite of the snack which was sitting in front of her before taking a sip from the teacup.

" I see," Liu Hui Ying very calmly spoke as she turned to look at Xiao Ai and then with a smile on her face said, " But more importantly, my dear Ai…what is the matter with these snacks?"

Xiao Ai looked at the pasties which she had brought with her and then turned to look at Liu Hui Ying before saying, " What is the matter with them, your majesty?"

Liu Hui Ying felt something snap inside of her as her stress reached the max level. She raised her hand and then pointed at the plate of pasties and then said, " They are all without sugar! They taste tasteless! Do you know how it feels to eat something so tasteless? It feels horrible! Where is my sugar!?"

" Look at that, a man is going to die —— and she only cares about her sugary snacks…" Li Gang scoffed where Jia Li and the rest swiftly walked away from him as Liu Hui Ying walked over to where Li Gang was and shoved the sugar-free pasty inside his mouth before going back out into the living room leaving Li Gang to choke on the flaky pasty which tasted bland.

" Your majesty … it is not that I want to bar you from sugar but…." Xiao Ai hesitated as she reached out her hand and squeezed Liu Hui Ying's waist. " You have gone fat."
