Chapter 123
123 She died in a landslide so how?
Zhai Tianyu stiffened as he looked at Liu Hui Ying who snapped her fingers and Li Gang who was floating over the roof descended with an elegant twirl of his feet and then landed on the floor as he came down and then picked up the bronze mirror on the table that was lying on the dressing table with the help of the spiritual energy that Lin Hui Ying was sharing with him and then walked over to where Zhai Tianyu who was holding the bronze mirror and then pulled it up such that bronze mirror he was holding reflected the words that were written on the bronze plate in Zhai Tianyu’s hands.
At first, Zhai Tianyu didn’t understand what the ghost man was trying to do but that confusion vanished when he read the words that were reflected on the bronze mirror that Li Gang was holding in his hands.
” Mother, I was murdered,” Zhai Tianyu read the words that were written on the bronze plate out loud, his eyes widened and then the bronze plate that he was holding slipped from his hands and shock and terror started to flood his entire body, he breathed heavily as he looked at the bronze plate that was on the floor and then mouthed the words that he just read again and again as he closed his eyes and then rubbed his face as the reality of what he has read finally sunk in.
” My Aunt...Zhen...Zhen’s aunt... was murdered?” Zhai Tianyu closed his eyes as he stumbled back and if not for the cabinet’s support he took, he would have sunk to his knees. If not for withstanding the rules and regulations of the emperor he would have really let go of everything and sunk to his knees, how can this happen? Who in the world had the guts to murder his aunt?
” You seem to be surprised,” Liu Hui Ying asked, her tone was rather casual and she didn’t look like she was at all affected by the fact Zhai Chenguang was murdered after all she has seen many cases like this in the detective department. Women whose bodies were found in the trunk of their cars, men who were murdered by someone after they were pushed off their office building and what followed was a bunch of crying and yelling as their heartbroken family members crying for their dead ones.
” And you don’t look the least bit affected my queen,” Zhai Tianyu commented as he looked at Liu Hui Ying who did not look bothered by the fact that his aunt was murdered in fact she didn’t even seem to be affected by his grief as well.
Liu Hui Ying’s smile widened as she turned her head to the wall in front of her and then sighed heavily before she tilted her head to the side and said, ” Maybe it’s because I have been lonely for so long that I have forgotten how it feels to lose your loved ones,” she turned her head to look at Zhai Tianyu and cheekily blinked her eyes as added softly, ” I was an orphan in my world you see, I have seen people lose their loved ones for a long time but I have no recollection of how it feels to lose someone whom you are closer to, that’s why I am a bit broken....but don’t feel bad, if you want to cry or yell then you can go ahead, I will listen to your mourning.”
This confession came out of nowhere and Zhai Tianyu did not know what to say about it, he licked his lips and then moved his head slightly wanting to say something but couldn’t think of anything, after all, he has only coaxed Ji Yu and no one else and he was sure the tactics that worked on Ji Yu would never work on the queen who was considerably different from his concubine.
So, instead of saying anything he sat down on the chair that was beside the cabinet and asked, ” How long have you known that my aunt was murdered?”
.....
” I knew it ever since she came to haunt me,” Liu Hui Ying replied while studying her nails, she was waiting for Zhai Tianyu to start sobbing but when he didn’t she raised her brow and looked at him in surprise. ” She was the one who told me everything about her and what happened to her, I am surprised that you did not know that she was murdered, how come you never found out that she was dead because someone killed her?”
” That’s because....she died in a carriage accident,” Zhai Tianyu still remembered the day her aunt died, she was going to see her husband who was giving a lecture in the next province. The imperial family prepared a bunch of soldiers to go with her but unfortunately for them, that day ...Rain started to fall really harshly like water pellets were showering upon the land and then before they knew it the news of Zhai Chenguang dying in a landslide arrived to the palace.
Of course, the imperial palace immediately went on a search operation hoping that they will be able to get Zhai Chenguang alive out of the landslide but when they dug her body out of the landslide it was so damaged that they couldn’t even see what happened to her, they all thought that she was dead because of the accident and the mountain falling on top of her carriage but now that Zhai Tianyu was thinking about it, he couldn’t help but carefully consider what happened back then, after all, no matter how hard the rain was falling it wasn’t to the point where a landslide will happen.
And even if it did happen how was it that it took every single soldier along with it, it was as if someone was aiming to have them all killed in one big sweep.
His eyes coldly glinted as they narrowed and he clenched his fingers tightly in anger.
