Detective Ghost Empress

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."

" 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!
