Chapter 249 - 249 A shadow of those who schemed?



Zhai Heng was not wrong regarding this matter after all Zhai Tianyu indeed have to give way to Liu Hui Ying when the latter was in an unforgiving attitude, even when he was being pushed into a corner like a dead dog, Zhai Tianyu lowered his head and allowed Liu Hui Ying to do what she wanted to do …so who was he to tell Liu Hui Ying to drop her gaze?

And even if the woman was not dressed as the Queen, she was still the Queen and the ruler of the harem, it did not make sense for her to lower her head in front of an imperial concubine.

” Is that so,” Ji Yu did not take Liu Hui Ying glaring at her as a small matter but when she saw that Zhai Heng was protecting Liu Hui Ying, she decided to drop the matter.

In Zhai Heng and Zhai Tianyu’s view she was kind and generous and drilling Zhai Heng over just a small matter like a foreigner not bowing his head in front of her would not be good which was why she did not say anything further but she still looked at Liu Hui Ying in the eyes and said, ” Are you sure that this young master is up to the job? I mean, sure he investigated aunt’s case but he is still young. Compared to my brother who has a lot of experience…don’t you think that he is slightly lacking?”

Zhai Heng did not know what to say regarding this question as he looked at Ji Yu who was trying to make things difficult for Liu Hui Ying. He of course understood that Ji Yu was feeling upset over the fact that her brother’s job was snatched by a man who looked wet behind his ears but just because Liu Hui Ying was young it did not change the fact that she was more experienced and skilled than Ji Yu’s brother!

” Consort Ji——”

” You can see my skills very clearly in the last investigation, it was I who was able to find the truth behind the death of the late princess Chenguang…of course if I can properly investigate a case that was months old then I think I can surely investigate a matter that is only a few hours old?” Liu Hui Ying raised her eyebrows, it was as if she was daring Ji Yu to bring another issue up such that she will be able to show her contempt regarding the Ji family once again.

That brat who was working in the crime investigation department couldn’t even solve something as small as the case of Zhai Chenguang and yet he was daring enough to imagine that he will be able to investigate this case. Was he a fool? Or was he thinking of pushing the blame on her head?

.....

Remembering how she found a letter in the hands of Liu Fei Fei, Liu Hui Ying’s eyes narrowed in an unfriendly manner at Ji Yu who was trying to go against her at the moment, she thought that this girl was a good woman at least she was better than the others who did not scheme against her like the other concubine but now she could not help but think that the only reason Ji Yu was this clean was that she did not need to do anything like that.

Ji Yu pursed her lips when she heard Liu Hui Ying’s reply, she did not expect that the man would retort against her but surprisingly he did and that too in such a disrespectful manner! She breathed a sigh that was full of annoyance and then said in a slightly bitter voice, ” One must know when to be grounded, getting arrogant because of something so small as solving a case that was left untouched for years is not something to be proud of.”

” You are right,” Liu Hui Ying usually did not care about someone like Ji Yu but seeing that she was trying to bite a chunk out of her Liu Hui Ying raised a brow and then smiled at her with a light-hearted expression. ” But getting the trust of the Emperor is something to be proud of, don’t you think so?”

You want to fight me? Then I will fight you till death!

Ji Yu’s breathing stagnated as she glared at Liu Hui Ying hard and then turned to look at Zhai Heng who was having a headache thinking about the outcome of this scuffle. Really, he just came here to solve a case and nothing else, how come he suddenly got caught in a catfight out of nowhere?

” Brother Heng,” seeing that she could no longer fight against the young man who was so unruly and ill manner, Ji Yu turned to look at Zhai Heng as she tilted her chin at Xiaolin who strode forward and then offered a lunch box to Zhai Heng as well. ” I prepared a bit too much for dinner, if brother Heng does not mind then you can take this for your dinner tonight.”

She glanced at Liu Hui Ying who was standing behind Zhai Heng and then haughtily stated, ” I will go and see his majesty or else the meal that I prepared will go cold.” This man was proud of snatching the case from her brother right? Then she will make it so that he won’t be able to investigate this case any further!

With that thought in her head, she glared at Liu Hui Ying hard and then strode past Liu Hui Ying and Zhai Heng who was left stumped with a lunch box in his hands as he watched Ji Yu leave.

What was this? Why did he see the shadow of those scheming concubines in Ji Yu just now?
