Chapter 486: Not a single bone was left intact
Eunuch Li and Mammy Han took a look at Liu Hui Ying who was laughing and then simultaneously took a step away from her. They were really afraid that Liu Hui Ying would do something to them but the latter did not do anything, instead she simply turned to look at Xiao Ai who nodded and then took the decree from Eunuch Li who heaved a sigh of relief.
But before he could heave a sigh of relief, Liu Hui Ying smiled at him with a vibrant expression and then said, " I hope your journey back will be smooth, Eunuch Li. And do tell his majesty, that I will 'miss' him a lot."
No sooner did she finish speaking the doors of the cold palace closed on their own scaring Eunuch Li so much that he jumped in the arms of Mammy Li.
" W..What was that?" Eunuch Li stammered. For some reason, he felt a chill climb up on his spine just now, how come these heavy gates closed on their own?
Mammy Han also swallowed hard and then looked at Eunuch Li before saying, " Who …who knows. The cold palace is a place where many Empress and concubines killed themselves, it's not a good place to stay!"
The two of them shivered and then ran away from the cold palace, though this place was terrifying every day, for some reason, it looked especially evil and cold today! While the two of them ran away, the guards who were supposed to be guarding the cold palace felt a tremor rise on their spines, what were they supposed to do now? Stay here and suffer?
And why was the temperature getting colder?
On the other side, Liu Hui Ying stared at the closed door and a chill emanated from her body, she did not know what happened but she did have an inkling that something big must have happened in the Liu family. Her eyes flickered as she turned to look at the five ghosts and said, " Go.. have fun."
Though this matter was related to the Liu family she was completely innocent for that man to punish her after she took care of him, Liu Hui Ying was not going to let him sleep in peace! Every day she spent in the cold palace, the Ji family and the Emperor can forget about being at ease! Discover stories at m,v l'e|m-p y r
Li Gang cheered along with Jia Li, even Grandma Lan Fen was amused only Xiao Lin felt a bit embarrassed when she thought about how she had to prank others but when Liu Hui Ying turned to glare at her Xiao Lin did not dare to be sympathetic and said, " I will definitely make them suffer!"
" You better," Liu Hui Ying sneered before she strode inside the cold palace with Nanny Gong and Xiao Ai who did not dare to breathe, it was all right if they were being sent to the cold palace but why did the Emperor make them think that they were moving to another courtyard? It only made her majesty even more furious.
What they did not know was that Zhai Tianyu wanted to have three minutes of peace even if it was only three minutes he would rather delay it than face Liu Hui Ying's wrath!
But even if he delayed it for three minutes, it did not mean that he would be able to escape forever.
" Do you think that her majesty would be so angered that she would ruin the entire country?" Yu Lingyun could not help but ask while nibbling on his nails.
He had seen what Liu Hui Ying could do when she was furious, she could even keep a person alive after stabbing them to death and she could even raise the dead, a woman as scary as that was punished by them, it remained to be seen who would be punished.
Zhai Heng turned to look at Yu Lingyun and then said, " Don't be stupid, there is no way Her Majesty would dare to do something like this." Though he said that he was also worried, Liu Hui Ying was not unreasonable but she was not also a soft persimmon. She would never silently eat a bitter fruit.
On the other hand, Zhai Tianyu did not say anything. He simply looked at the brush with which he had written the decree and covered his face with his hands. In all honesty, he did not want to imprison the Empress but if he did not then Ji Yang would only make more ruckus. And now that Liu Dong Ming was suspended, he dared not to let Ji Yang jump around for the time being.
" I just hope that Her Majesty would be able to understand my heart——"
No sooner did he finish speaking Eunuch Li supported by four more eunuchs walked inside. Seeing Eunuch Li tightly covered in the bandage, Zhai Tianyu felt a shiver climb up his spine.
" W..What happened Eunuch Li?" Zhai Tianyu asked as he looked at the four eunuchs who were more or less injured.
" Your majesty please don't ask! Your slave is really unlucky today!" Eunuch Li cried with tears in his eyes but he dared not to speak carelessly as his jaw was hurting.
" I handed the decree to Her Majesty the Empress and then was returning to the palace when suddenly I stumbled on a root and then fell in the pond, unfortunately for me the pond was almost empty because of the winter and I fell on the hard surface! I broke my right hand because of this fall."
" Then I was pulled out and taken to the physician's courtyard and had my bones mended but then three miles away I was stampeded by a wild horse and ended up breaking both of my legs.
I went to the physician again and then came out this time I did not even go two miles when the makeshift bed that my underlings made to carry snapped in half and I broke my waist and the back of my head… I thought at least my left hand would be left intact but alas, just now when I was being brought up to the palace, the stretcher tilted because these people were not paying attention and we all rolled down the stairs!
Boohoo, Your Majesty, there is not a single bone in my body that is not broken."
Zhai Tianyu stiffened when he heard this, he did not dare to think what would happen to him now. Eunuch Li only relayed the decree, he was the one who wrote it!
