Detective Ghost Empress

Chapter 19: I deserve to die your majesty

” Tell me again, why do I have to see the jerk who nearly killed me yesterday night and that too with so much fanfare.” Liu Hui Ying stared at her reflection in the mirror, it was one thing for her to wear a crown that weighed a ton but it was a completely different thing if they were to make her wear at least seven pieces of clothing including a floaty long veil like a thing that was attached to her shoulders leading all the way up to wrists. What was even more amazing was that despite making her wear all this they even added a corset-like thing wrapped around her waist to make her look even slimmer than usual like she needed to look any more slim!

This woman’s waist was already thin as a stick, just one wrong move and she would snap into half like a twig.

Looking at her frail figure Liu Hui Ying really missed her six-pack abs, ten years ... it took freaking ten years for her to get a body that could overthrow any man down and now that body was gone. Bloody hell, she was so saddened by the loss of her muscular body that she wanted to cry tears of blood.

Refund! Give her a refund at least!

” Your majesty, you cannot call the esteemed emperor a jerk...” Nanny Gong’s eyes teared up instinctively as she looked at Liu Hui Ying. Goodness, her majesty who was the embodiment of class and manners actually called the Emperor a jerk! ” How shocked you have been to start acting like this, it’s all my fault if I hadn’t left the Liu mansion for my family emergency then something like this would have never happened, I deserve to be killed, your majesty!”

As she shouted Nanny Gong got to her knees and kowtowed in front of Liu Hui Ying.

It was a good thing that Qui Ai helped Liu Hui Ying up before dropping to her knees along with Nanny Gong. Once she and nanny Gong were on their knees the other maids followed suit, dropping to their knees one by one.

.....

” Oh this looks fun,” Li Gang looked at the row of maids who were on their knees in the long corridor and nodded his head in appreciation. ” I don’t know about you but when I was the leader of my gang, my underlings would greet me like this as well! Man, this is taking me back down to my memory lane.”

” If you are going down memory lane you might as well drown there already,” deadpanned Jia Li as she looked at the maids kneeling in front of them before yawning. ” Man, I really want to go and get myself a coke or something of the sort, this is all too boring.”

” You call this boring? It’s so much fun!”

” Have you not seen the current drama that I was watching? That was what I call interesting and fun, this is simply a repetition of actions, just how many times have we watched them go down their knees and repeat the same thing over and over again? I am getting tired of listening to the same thing. They all look like freaking NPCs!”

Liu Hui Ying had to agree with Jia Li this time, these maids have been going on with the same routine ever since the morning. She didn’t have time for this damn it! She didn’t get a chance to finish her beauty sleep, nor did she get the chance to look for this woman’s soul and now she has to listen to their cries.

She was tired. They were even more annoying than the new intern in the company!

Maybe she should really —

” Calm down, violence is never the answer.” Grandma Lan Fen’s calm voice broke through the daze that was covering her eyes.

That’s right, she shouldn’t let her anger rule her like this ... even though these maids were annoying they were still her only way to get information about this place. Since they were still useful, killing them was a big no-no.

” Look you all, I know that you all are very upset with the happenings of yesterday but nothing is going to change if you keep crying like this, you all need to calm down and take a deep breath, come on follow me.” As Liu Hui Ying spoke, she even demonstrated how to breathe in and out showing her maids to calm down.

” Forgive me, your majesty,” nanny Gong was the first one to recover her wits as she bowed her head in front of Liu Hui Ying and apologised. ” This servant should have paid attention to her bearings before showing you such an unsightly sight in front of you. But what am I supposed to do, seeing you like this makes me want to die.”

” Look I can kill you if that’s what you want,” Liu Hui Ying offered generously but then Nanny Gong’s head snapped up and she looked at her in shock and fear, so Liu Hui Ying had to back peddle immediately. ” But that is not going to solve anything will it?”

Nanny Gong shook her head and Liu Hui Ying smiled at her with a polite attitude. ” See, you dying for me won’t change a thing. Then why don’t you calm down and show me the way?”

Just get on with this already! I need to take this crown off my head!
