349 What other secrets were they hiding ——-Liu Hui Ying trembled in anger as she glared at the witch who has hogged her bed. She rolled her eyes many times before she threw her head back and then closed her eyes as she breathed in and out before she opened her eyes once again but as soon as she opened her eyes she heard Jia Li say, ” Are you going to ask the Emperor to share his bed with you?”

” Shut up!”

On the other hand, Zhai Tianyu who returned to his own courtyard took off the clothes that he was wearing when he went after Liu Hui Ying. His head was still in the graveyard where he heard about things that he never thought could even be possible. He wanted to ask the Queen what the witch who followed them meant by that there was an evil spirit living in the Ji family but he could not bring himself to ask Liu Hui Ying anything when he saw the expression on her face.

Liu Hui Ying had her own problems that she needed to think over carefully and there was no time in her hands to deal with him or answer his questions. And what kind of Emperor will he be if he has to rely on the Empress for everything? His eyes flickered as he placed the commoners’ clothes in the last drawer and pushed them at the very back such that no one will found them before putting on the robe of the Emperor as he turned to walk around the wooden partition and then went to his study table where he picked up the flint and then lit the lamp that was on the table.

The golden glow of the lamp illuminated his face as the flame flickered in his eyes, for a few seconds Zhai Tianyu simply stared at the lamp without doing anything. It was after a very long pause that he walked over to his chair and took a seat where he pulled a blank paper and a brush that was sitting in a small vessel in which all his brushes were kept.

He raised his hand and then closed his eyes as he tried to remember the face of the woman who has been long dead in this world. Once he started remembering the face that he has forgotten, he dipped the brush in the ink pot and pulled it back. He watched the drop of ink straining to fall from the tip of the brush and once it fell down in the ink pot, he brought the brush to the paper where he started drawing the face of the woman.

The face has been long forgotten by him, if anything he has once hated this face because of all the pain that she brought Ji Yu and her family but now ——who exactly was the one who was in pain?

The sound of brush scratching and brushing against the paper echoed in the air for a long time before Zhai Tianyu stopped his hand and pulled the brush back off the paper. He stared at the woman who has come to life on the paper and for the very first time he realised why he hated Liu Hui Ying when he saw her for the first time.

She looked just like her dead sister.

.....

She stared at the face of Liu Yue, the woman who was rumoured to be the beauty of the imperial city, wanted by all men and the woman who ran away while leaving the man she loved behind to be killed. But did she run away because she was in the plan devised by the Liu Family or she ran away because the man she loved was dead? And was the man even dead?

Zhai Tianyu looked at the woman’s face for a long time and pursed his lips not understanding anything.

” Just what kind of secrets are they all hiding,” Zhai Tianyu rubbed his forehead as he looked at the woman’s portrait that he has drawn. The more he got closer to the truth, the more he realised that he has been alone from the very beginning with no one by his side.

Not once had they all told him the truth.

He raised his head and then turned to look at the moon that was shining brightly in the sky and then tapped the wooden surface of the table with his finger as he muttered, ” I hope the hunt goes well.”

…..

” Your majesty, are you still not up?” Qiu Ai pushed the door of Liu Hui Ying’s room to the side and walked inside but she was surprised when she saw that the Empress who was supposed to be sleeping on the bed was now lying on the floor with a blanket. Her teeth grinding as she rolled around the floor, wiping it with her heavenly clothes.

“Oh, dear heavens!” Nanny Gong exclaimed and then swayed on the spot, if not for Qiu Ai she would have fallen on the floor. She was fine with the Empress doing all sorts of actions even the act of carrying her skirt while she walked was now something that she was getting used to but every time she got used to something the Queen will jump to another level and then test her patience.

What kind of Empress sleeps on the floor when there is a bed sitting right behind her?

“Nanny Gong, please calm yourself!” Qiu Ai helped Nanny Gong up the floor as she pulled the old woman to stand up from the floor. ” This is just fine, there is no need for you to react like this, at least the Empress is not asking for a pole to be strapped in the centre of her bedroom while performing that atrocious dance called pole dance.”

Nanny Gong breathed in and then patted her chest as she nodded and in a sort of sobbing voice said, ” You are right little Ai. I should focus on the good thing rather than —— but why is she sleeping on the floor? YOUR MAJESTY! I AM GOING TO GET A HEART ATTACK BECAUSE OF YOU ONE DAY!”
