Chapter 187
187 Running away
” No, you cannot do this, your majesty!” Scholar Wei looked like Zhai Tianyu has actually announced his execution date instead of asking him to prove his identity as a man.
But Zhai Tianyu did not listen to his plea at all, why will he? If it was proven that Scholar Wei was not a whole man then it meant that he fooled not only his aunt but also him because no man who has lost his manhood was allowed to become an official other than a eunuch in the palace or the house of a minister, what was more a man was only turned to a eunuch under two conditions. One that he gives it up by himself once he sells himself or when he was caught in a crime and was punished with the punishment of not having a child or a family in the future.
If either of these was right, then it meant that Scholar Wei has broken the most important law of the imperial family.
” I have assured you that there will be punishment if they are making a mistake and not one thing less,” Zhai Tianyu’s hand curled on his lap. ” But if they are speaking the truth, then be prepared to be punished as the sinner of the imperial family .”
Becoming a sinner of the imperial family meant that they will never be allowed to die in one swift kill, those who were called the sinner of the imperial family were killed slowly over the days. Either they were tied on the streets where they were killed by the public who were ordered to throw stones at them, or they were hanged on the wall half alive where they were slowly eaten by crows and vultures.
If they were proven to harm the imperial family members then they were made a public spittoon after tearing their limbs off and thrown into a stone bowl that was placed in the busiest street of town or city where they were left to die while being used by the people of the city as they wanted to use their bodies.
When Scholar Wei heard this, all the blood drained from his face before he looked at the people who were sitting in the tearoom with a helpless expression on his face but then something moved in his eyes and then he cursed out loud, ” Damn you all to death!”
As he screamed he threw something at Liu Hui Ying who was surprised by his action, even Zhai Tianyu and Zhai Heng were stunned. The two of them stretched their hands to stop the thing from reaching the Queen but as soon as the thing was touched by Zhai Heng’s hand, it exploded at once causing the entire room to be filled with smoke.
” What...” Zhai Tianyu who saw what was happening was stunned at first before he shouted at Yu Lingyun and the other guards. ” Catch him, don’t let him run away!”
.....
But the smoke was so thick that no one was able to see anything, even Yu Lingyun who was used to fighting in dust and debris could not see anything. He even tried to make a wild catch but he could not do it because the smoke seemed to be filled with chilli powder, his eyes were filled with tears and he could not do anything with his vision blinded like that, only the ghosts were unaffected.
Jia Li saw that Scholar Wei was running and thus she turned to look at Liu Hui Ying who was covering her eyes and asked, ” Should I chase after him?”
” What else? Are you waiting for me to hand you an invitation card or something of the sort?” Liu Hui Ying was rather annoyed when she heard Jia Li’s question, she could not even see and yet her ghosts were making fun of her at this moment.
” I was just asking since you told us to not make a move without asking for permission,” Jia Li poked fun at Liu Hui Ying who raised her head and snarled, ” I am temporarily blind not permanently, just wait until I start seeing properly. I will make you cry just you wait!”
Seeing that Liu Hui Ying was getting angry, Jia Li and the others immediately flew out of the room worried that they will be punished heavily which was why they did not dare to make fun of Liu Hui Ying anymore.
....
Once the smoke disappeared, Liu Hui Ying used the water that was in the jug in front of her to wash her eyes. She was worried that she will really go blind if she did not wash her eyes and as soon as her vision cleared up, she was surprised to see that even Zhai Tianyu and Zhai Heng were crouching with their eyes covered.
It was really shocking that these men who were used to practising martial arts were defeated by such a small trick.
” Here you go,” she pushed the jug in front of Zhai Tianyu who was covering his eyes. ” Wash your eyes with water or else they will burn even more.”
As soon as she spoke Zhai Tianyu raised his hand and then picked up the jug that Liu Hui Ying was holding in front of him and started washing his eyes he blinked them rapidly and then pushed the jug to his brother who started washing his eyes before pushing the jug to Yu Lingyun who was cursing.
Yu Lingyun washed his eyes while he cursed under his breath, ” I am going to kill that man, no eunuch! How dare he make use of such a trick and even make fun of us. For so many years he has made a fool out of us, I am going to pull his extremities out and then kill him!”
” You have to wait for that,” Liu Hui Ying turned to glance at Zhai Chenguang whose face was covered with shock and disbelief, she stared at the door from where her husband ran away as her Yin energy fluctuated and Liu Hui Ying was sure that she was remembering the forgotten last moments of her life.
