Detective Ghost Empress

Zhai Tianyu looked at the sly look in the eyes of Ji Yu and could not help but ask, " What do you have in your head, imperial concubine Ji?" Ji Yu was obviously the smartest one among all the girls in the Ji family, if she was not then he wouldn't have brought her to his side but it just so happened that Ji Yu was left under the care of his grandmother back then his grandmother said that she was feeling lonely after the death of his father and he agreed, thinking that his grandmother was indeed sick but now he realised that it was clearly a lie.

His grandmother was not sick nor did she need Ji Yu's company, she only brought Ji Yu to her side because she realised that Ji Yu was getting close to him.

The Grand Dowager Empress wanted the next Empress to be someone submissive as well, one whom she could easily suppress and make her dance to her tune which was why she brought Ji Yu to her side such that she will be able to teach her everything that she wanted Ji Yu to learn, it was only under the 'careful teachings' of his grandmother did Ji Yu turn from a girl who could shoot down boars with three arrows to a delicate woman who did not even raise her voice.

Ji Yu smiled cheekily as she blinked her eyes and then said in a soft voice, " Of course, I do have something in my head but for that plan to come in motion. I need, your majesty to support me a little."

" Is that so?" Zhai Tianyu questioned as he shook his head and then said, "If that is the case then I am willing to play along with you a little, Yu'er but of course do not try to betray me, for the consequences will be too dire for you to take."

Ji Yu bowed her head as she conceded the warning which was handed to her by Zhai Tianyu, " Do not worry, your majesty. This time even though I am going to backstab someone, that someone won't be you."

The two of them were talking rather slowly and Hong Mei who was standing behind Zhai Tianyu and Ji Yu could not hear what they were saying but she did hear a few things, but those words sounded like Zhai Tianyu and Ji Yu had made up with each other and that cheered her up.

See!

With that fool beside imperial concubine Ji nothing good was happening and no longer did she appear on the side of Ji Yu, his majesty and imperial concubine Ji were back to how they were in the past, as Hong Mei thought about the scene in front of her in her head, she became more and more proud, now she couldn't wait to go back and tell the grand dowager empress about what a good job she had done with imperial concubine Ji.

" She seems a lot satisfied with what she is seeing, I would say, " Zhai Tianyu did not turn his head to look at Hong Mei but he knew that she was really proud of the accomplishment that she just received.

Ji Yu nodded and agreed with a soft voice as she said, " You are right about that your majesty, she is indeed rather proud. Let's leave it at that but do you understand what you need to do in the upcoming days?"

Liu Dong Ming had asked her to find the priest who was hiding in the Ji family, she did not know who this priest was but for the sake of finding this certain person who even escaped the hands of the left prime minister, she needed to sneak inside her house but that was only possible if Zhai Tianyu played along with her and gave her enough reason to return home and look around for that priest.

" I have a very clear idea of what I need to——" Zhai Tianyu opened his mouth to speak but then he heard a loud scream followed by another scream that quaked the entire hunting ground, he exchanged a look with Ji Yu and then the two of them rushed to the hunting grounds.

Who knew what happened but the cage which looked secured and completely fine was now shattered, the bars of the metal cage were now in pieces while the tiger which was trapped inside the cage was running frantically here and there.

His eyes were crazy red and he was pacing left and right as if wanting to look for prey which would satiate his hunger. When Zhai Tianyu arrived at the scene his eyebrows could not help but furrow, he looked at the hunting ground where only soldiers who were responsible for guarding were present and those who were skilled in martial arts could not be seen.

Immediately his eyes fell on Ji Yang who was trying to usher the Concubines and the grand dowager Empress out of the hunting ground as for his mother and the queen—— his eyes frantically searched for the two of them, though his relationship with his mother was not good, he did not wish to see his mother die.

As for Liu Hui Ying, it was even more impossible for him to leave her alone.

Finally, his eyes fell on the two women, one was lazily sitting on the chair with her maid fanning her with a face mask and slices of cucumber on her eyes while the other was staring at the tiger as if she was already deciding where she was going to place his pelt to decorate her room, in the moment of panic these two calm women, looked like a comedic sight.

Zhai Tianyu: "….." Should I go save them or should I stay and let them do their own thing?

Even Zhai Heng who followed was stunned, he knew that his mother was a woman with different ideals but this…this was too lax wasn't it? Was she not worried that she will end up getting troubled?
