Chapter 208 - 208 Choked
208 Choked
Liu Hui Ying did not want to go to the Dowager Empress, she was unwilling but no matter how unwilling she was, there was no way she would be able to ignore the order of the Dowager Empress which was why even though she did not want to agree, she had to sit down on the palanquin and allow the people who were forcing her to the Dowager Empress palace take her there.
” I greet her majesty!” Liu Hui Ying even though hated the fact that she has to come and see this scheming lady, she bowed politely and looked at her with a respectful expression. If not for her perfect acting skills she would not have been able to work as an undercover detective for such a long time, her expressions were even more wonderful than the real Liu Hui Ying causing Dowager Empress to look at her with a smile.
” You child, there is no need for you to look at me like that and, there is no need for you to act all polite with me,” Dowager Empress immediately said as she asked her Mammy to help Liu Hui Ying up, she looked at Liu Hui Ying like she was looking at her favourite niece causing Liu Hui Ying’s smile to widen even more.
‘ No need to act so polite? Why don’t you look at that overly satisfied face of yours first? Clearly, you love seeing people bow to you!’ Liu Hui Ying thought in her head as she let the mammy help her up, she walked over to the chair that was opposite Dowager Empress and sat down with a polite expression on her face while she ruthlessly curse the Dowager Empress in her head.
” Did you want to see me for something your majesty?” Liu Hui Ying asked as she looked at the woman who was sitting in front of her, she was sure that this woman did not call her to the palace to enjoy the sight of the fluttering apricot leaves.
The two of them were currently sitting in the garden that no longer had the charm it did when it was spring, the green leaves were slowly turning a subtle shade of brown, and some were even fluttering down with the wind that was rustling past them. Liu Hui Ying surveyed the surroundings carefully and her eyes flickered when she noticed a chill that has nothing to do with the weather that was changing.
‘ A soul’ she muttered in her mind as she looked around the garden her eyes flickered left and right but she could not find the soul that was hiding and before she could focus on the yin energy she felt that the soul has vanished without a trace.
This …just how many souls were trapped in this place?
” I called you because there is something that I want to ask to you,” Dowager Empress suddenly spoke causing as she looked at Liu Hui Ying causing the latter to snap out of her daze as she looked at the woman who was speaking to her.
.....
Liu Hui Ying was prepared to be questioned about a number of things like why she was no longer in the courtyard and why she was leaving and where she was going after all there was a chance that the maids who were looking after her and were working in her courtyard were spies of Dowager Empress she has never been a fool to think that the Dowager Empress and Grand Dowager Empress would leave her alone. The two of them thought they were opponents, the two women were cut from the same clothes—— they were distrustful of others and were simply unreasonable there was no way she would not know that they would plant spies in her courtyard.
But as she was waiting for Dowager Empress to ask what she was thinking she noticed that the woman’s face has turned weird as she looked at her and then said in a soft voice, ” Hui Ying, when you told me that his majesty went to see you at the night where you two consummated your wedding, you were speaking the truth right?”
Liu Hui Ying clenched her fingers, what was this? Was the woman suspecting her? She was a bit confused but she still lowered her head and shyly responded, ” of course it is true, how can I dare to lie to you, your majesty?” Though she replied like that, she was carefully thinking about the night that took place, what happened…did she miss something but how come she missed something?
She has never made a mistake before!
Just as she was thinking about whether to use her talisman on the Dowager Empress knowing that she will have to do something or else because of the sin of lying to the dowager empress she will get the punishment of beheading. But before she could even take the talisman out,she heard the Dowager Empress heave a sigh of relief, stunned she looked at the woman whose face was obviously very clear and she did not look like she was going to go on a verge of attacking or punishing anyone, seeing this Liu Hui Ying was surprised but before she could say anything she heard Dowager Empress say, ” I knew that there was no way what they were saying was the truth!”
” Your majesty?” Liu Hui Ying asked in confusion, what was she talking about?
Seeing that Liu Hui Ying was looking at her with confusion Dowager Empress thought that she has not taken the rumours to her mind and felt even more proud of her niece. Clearly, her niece knew what her son was capable of and was not even willing to believe what the others were talking about, it was only those women who did not know what was good for them and had never felt the happiness of what it meant to fly up to the heaven which was why they have they were believing such rumours.
“It’s nothing the others are saying that his majesty is interested in men.”
No sooner did the Grand Dowager Empress say this than Liu Hui Ying who has drank a sip of the tea served by the nanny choked.
