Detective Ghost Empress

Qin Mu Yan could no longer say anything as he finished listening to what Liu Dong Ming said to him. He stayed on his knees in front of Liu Hui Ying while looking at Liu Dong Ming who was speaking to him.

He wished to go against Liu Dong Ming and retort scathingly but after struggling for a long time he realised that what Liu Dong Ming said to him was indeed correct, while he was worrying about his sister, he ended up forgetting the fact that this woman despite not being accepted by the ministers of the imperial court as their queen, she was still wearing the crown of the Queen of the imperial city.

And him accusing her regarding the disappearance of his sister without any piece of evidence was indeed asking for trouble and that too, a one which might cost him, his life!

"This minister apologises," though Qin Mu Yan was not willing to lower his head, he could only take a step back. But that does not mean that he was willing to lower his head! Even if he had to flip the entire forest upside down, he will find his sister no matter where she was, he did not believe that he will not be able to find her!

With his head lowered in front of Liu Hui Ying, he apologised even though his head was lowered and he was not looking at Liu Hui Ying, the latter could feel that he was rather reluctant to give up. But she did not bother herself with him for two reasons, she did not have the time and secondly, she could not bother herself with Qin Mu Yan, the latter was simply beyond reasoning.

She knew that no matter what she said to him, he will not listen to her unless he sees his sister with his own eyes. And that was highly impossible unless she goes around searching for her, only then will she be able to prove herself clean and in case she was a step too late, then she might never be able to save concubine Qin.

" I hope you will remember this, junior official Qin," Liu Hui Ying haughtily spoke to Qin Mu Yan as she turned to walk back to the tent, she did not even look at him as she walked away.

Behind her,  the three ghosts followed while Zhai Tianyu looked at Qin Mu Yan with a helpless look on his face, he knew that he was only worried about his sister but what he did was indeed overstepping the boundaries, if Liu Dong Ming wished he could have pursued this matter until Qin Mu Yan and his entire family were standing on the execution ground.

" Junior official Qin stays in your tent tonight and then think of what you have done," Zhai Tianyu told Qin Mu Yan who was kneeling on the ground. " Stay inside your tent and make sure that you calm yourself down, I do not wish to hear such reckless words again, do you understand?"

Qin Mu Yan pursed his lips thinly but he still lowered his head and then said in a grim voice, " I understand your majesty."

After Zhai Tianyu was done speaking, he walked away.

Once the Emperor left Qin Mu Yan stood up from the ground and looked at Liu Dong Ming who was smiling at him without any reservation, it was as if he wasn't the one who just said those words that went against him just now.

" Prime Minister Liu, I hope that you will not hold this against me," he said to Liu Dong Ming who did not look like he was the least bit offended.

" Of course, I will not hold it against you, junior minister Qin —— something like this is something that anyone who had lost their loved ones would understand but I will hope that the next time when you say such things you will think twice and not think of something like this again." Liu Dong Ming was generous with his words and did not say a word of blame it was as if he was not at all bothered by what Qin Mu Yan said just now.

Qin Mu Yan's eyes flickered but he still lowered his gaze and nodded, " I understand, prime minister Liu."

Liu Dong Ming did not say anything and simply turned on his heels and then left. Behind him, Qin Mu Yan stared at him for a few minutes but then he too turned on his heels and then walked towards his tent, he needed to think of a way to solve this matter lest his sister died in an unjust manner.

On the other hand, Liu Hui Ying returned to her tent where she asked Li Gang and Jia Li to bring the two maids who were responsible for changing the coal in the brazier which was something they did not have to work too hard for, as soon as they floated out of the tent, they noticed two maids coming to change the coal in the brazier of the Emperor tent.

" Oh they are already here," Li Gang muttered as he swooped down and looked at the elderly maid who was holding a big bucket which was filled with coal while the maid next to her was holding another bucket which was filled with coal as well.

Jia Li looked at the maid and then exchanged a look with Li Gang before the two of them took a step closer to the maid and then with a swoosh went inside the two women who were standing in front of them.

At once the two women stiffened and their eyes turned white like pearls which did not seem to have any life in them.

" It feels weird," muttered Li Gang as he looked down at the heavy mounds which were sticking out of his chest, he raised his hand which was free and carefully squeezed the heavy weight on his chest and grimaced, " I feel so heavy… and my back feels awful."

" Welcome to the life of being a woman," Jia Li sighed as she slapped the Li Gang's hand which was squeezing the chest of the maid. " And don't take advantage of the situation, I know what you are trying to do all right?"

Li Gang rolled his eyes but he still dropped his hand and then walked inside the tent which was standing in front of him, once he was inside he looked at Liu Hui Ying who was waiting for the two of them and asked, " What do you think? How do I look?"

" You are not my type but by all means knock her out," Liu Hui Ying remarked as he looked at the two maids who were being possessed by the two ghosts.

The two of them followed Liu Hui Ying's order and knocked the two maids out before stuffing them in the corner. Once they were done, Liu Hui Ying looked at the maids and then turned to look at Grandma Lan Fen with her arms crossed in front of her and said, " Take a good look at them and then make sure to create a mask which is similar to their faces."

" I understand," Grandma Lan Fen nodded as she looked at the two maids who were made to sit in the corner of the tent by Li Gang and Jia Li before she summoned her space.

It just so happened that the second she summoned her space, Zhai Tianyu who was outside the tent pushed the flap open and then stepped inside causing Grandma Lan Fen to be startled as she unconsciously brought him inside her space.

" Whoa…" Zhai Tianyu was awed in surprised when he suddenly arrived in a place which was pure white with multiple mirrors and a bunch of things that he had never seen before, and what shocked him the most was that on the left side of him, there was a glass cabinet that had multiple humans heads inside.

His eyes widened as he took in the white room which was cooler than the hunting grounds and then turned to look at Liu Hui Ying who was looking at him with so much surprise as if she did not know him before.

" You…what are you doing here?" She asked in shock as she looked at the man in front of her, surely he did not come chasing after her?

"That's what I would like to know," Zhai Tianyu replied as he looked at the things which he had never seen before and then turned his gaze to look at Grandma Lan Fen who looked much clearer than she did to him usually while Li Gang and Jia Li looked a bit dimmer and fainter as they stood next to Liu Hui Ying who was standing right in front of a dressing table with a mirror which was so clean that he could see his face without any trouble at all.

Just what was this place?!
