Detective Ghost Empress-Chapter 473: She calls me darling when she needs my help

" Argh!!! I will never forgive that man never!" Liu Hui Ying yelled as she applied the cooling ointment to her skin. Just because she gave him a little pain that man caused her allergies to flare up, he has to be kidding her just because of a small thing he dealt with her so severely!

" I don't think he will forgive you either," Jia Li chimed in from the side while looking at Liu Hui Ying who was rubbing the ointment on her arms and neck. " I forgot to tell you but in your anger, you took out a B-grade talisman instead of D. I bet the Emperor was in so much pain that he might have died several times."

Liu Hui Ying turned to look at Jia Li, frowned and then turned back before taking out the talisman that she was supposed to have used, she looked at the talisman and the thought of the one that she had used before neatly tucking it back and stating, " It still does not explain why he should be treating me like such? I mean… I get it I made a mistake——"

" Hui Ying," Grandma Lan Fen looked at Liu Hui Ying with a reprimanding expression and then said, "You shouldn't act that way, since you have done something wrong then you should be apologizing instead of acting like a spoiled child. Your allergy getting flared up is a small thing but that poor boy could have lost his life because of your small retaliation.

Be glad that he is strong or else he would have needed an amputation and that is something that we can't do in this world."

" You are supporting him?" Liu Hui Ying looked at the three ghosts with her mouth open in disbelief, she scoffed and then turned to look away before picking up the brush on the dressing table and throwing it on the floor. " Have you forgotten all those times when he almost killed me? I did it so it's wrong…what about him then? Did he apologize? I don't think so."

Liu Hui Ying stood up from the stool causing the three ghosts along with Xiao Lin and Witch Mao to take a step back.

" Where are you going?" Noticing that Liu Hui Ying seemed to be heading out of her room, Jia Li couldn't help but ask. " Should you not be resting?"

" I should be resting yes," Liu Hui Ying replied with a smile but then that smile dropped in a milli second as she glared at the five ghosts who were latched onto her and then sneered, " But I can't because certain idiots made my blood pressure hiked up!

Not only do I need to take care of that stupid flower ceremony for that stupid man but now I even have to listen to my ghosts speaking up for him!"

She raised her hand causing the five ghosts to flinch as they hid behind one another and stated, " You should be supporting me. No matter whether I am right or wrong, you should be coming to my support instead of anyone else! Understand?"

Neither of them spoke causing Liu Hui Ying to release a low pressure and her voice dropped as she repeated, " Understand?"

" Yes, yes," this time not even a single one dared to refuse her, upon seeing that Liu Hui Ying was on the verge of exploding they did not dare to act any more sassy.

The flower ceremony that was supposed to be held on New Year's Eve was nowhere near something as small as Zhai Tianyu made it out to be. Not only was Liu Hui Ying responsible for making arrangements for the eating and drinking of the women of the harem but she also had to look through the portraits of the women which were sent to her through the Grand Dowager Empress.

Apparently, they were already chosen but the Grand Dowager Empress mixed a few women of no importance in the middle of the portraits along with their information.

And Liu Hui Ying being the empress and the main as well as the official wife was responsible for choosing the women who would balance the harem without creating any misbalance.

" Woah," Li Gang muttered as he looked at the portraits of the women who were sent to the Empress's courtyard and couldn't help but exclaim in awe. " His Majesty is really lucky, not a single woman looks average. It's like he is picking the finest flowers out of the garden."

" Why else do you think it's called the Flower ceremony?" Liu Hui Ying questioned as she turned to look at the ghost behind her and then ripped the portrait out of his hands. " He is supposed to be looking at women who are not only powerful but beautiful. Because apparently, the bigger and better the harem of an Emperor is, the stronger and much more capable he looks."

This was something that the Grand Empress Dowager told her and she still couldn't understand how the logic worked. Like if the Harem was bigger than it was at the moment does it not mean that Zhai Tianyu would spend all his time in the Harem and in case he spends all his time in the harem he would end up overworking himself?

How will that make him look strong? Grand and show off yes but strong? How?

" Damn, I can't do this!" Liu Hui Ying slammed the fortieth portrait down on the table and looked at it as if she wished that the entire pile would just erupt in fire somehow. " I really can't do this… not because I don't and I can't watch him getting married to someone. But why should I be the one reading that the daughter of Official Zou can sing, dance and even know the four types of embroidery?

Is this something that I should be reading ?"

She then turned to look at the pile of portraits along with the information that was yet to be opened and covered her head. " Why me? Why should I do a job that is not even paying me!" Liu Hui Ying dropped her head on the table before scrunching up the portraits in her hands and then sharply said, " Li Gang pick up the portraits we are skipping work ."
