Chapter 3



Li Gang immediately pulled Liu Hui Ying back with her collars as he murmured in her ears, ” I don’t want to tell you this but those are the real deal, if they passed by you ...then we will be holding your funeral tomorrow.”

Listening to his words Liu Hui Ying stiffened as she took a step back voluntarily and looked at the swords that were aimed at her and said, ” This is the most unlucky day of my life...I swear.”

” Your majesty,” a deep voice with a timbre that was hard to ignore echoed in the wooden corridor and Liu Hui Ying looked over her shoulder to see who this ‘your majesty’ was when Jia Li turned her head in the front and said, ” You are the one wearing a crown, what are you looking back at for?”

” Have you lost your investigation skills along with your observation? Why are you making so many mistakes one after another?” said Grandma Lan Fen as she stared at Liu Hui Ying with concern. ” You must have seen the crown in your head when you looked in the mirror right now, right?”

” You are talking like I transmigrate every day,” murmured Liu Hui Ying in a low voice. ” And with a poisoned wine waiting for me.”

” I think we can still take this many men,” said Li Gang rolling his right shoulder while cracking his neck. ” We can just go bam and then whoosh and then bam, I am sure they will be down.”

.....

Jia Li rolled her eyes at him. ” Do you think that its that easy? From what I can see, we are in a completely different place and era. We transmigrated here so surely the way of going back lies in this very place, if we were to leave then how will we go back huh?”

When Jia Li said those words, the lock on Liu Hui Ying’s mind finally opened and she punched her right fist in the palm of her left hand. Jia Li was right, if she wanted to go back then she will have to look around for clues and see if there was any invisible path that led her back to her world. Just as she was thinking about how to go back to her world, a hand reached out to her followed by a very foul smell and she immediately dodged it.

” Uh oh,” said Li Gang with a shake of his head. ” You have to be kidding me.”

” That’s what I think it is, right?” said Grandam Lan Fen as she peered at the face of the newcomer.

Jia Li winced. ” Yes, it’s a man.”

” Your majesty,” the man dressed in black hanfu with armour on his chest looked at Liu Hui Ying and spoke cordially, ” This general is afraid that you cannot leave your room–”

He was still speaking when Liu Hui Ying closed the door on his face and turned her back to the figure standing outside before striding in and rubbing her temples. ” What is that doing here?”

” You might be forgetting but we aren’t in our house anymore,” said Li Gang with an amused voice. ” Man, you should see your face, you look like you have stepped in shit or something of the sort.”

” Well, men are no different from trash anyway,” said Liu Hui Ying feeling an itch almost crawling on her skin.

” Hey, I am a man too, you know?”

” You don’t count.”

Li Gang placed his hands on his waist and said, ” How so?”

“You are a ghost and...” her eyes flashed before she shook her head and said, ” I can take you on if you try anything .”

Seeing that her expression has turned really bad, Li Gang said nothing. On the other hand, Jia Li sympathetically floated towards Liu Hui Ying and said, ” Just take a deep breath and think of him as a potato or something, just like you did when you went to work and nothing more.”

Liu Hui Ying sucked in a breath and sat down on the bed with a circular opening, her fingers drumming on the edge of the wooden frame. ” What we need right now, is someone who will let us know what kind of mess we are in at the moment.” She blinked her eyes, her curled eyelashes fanning her cheeks as she looked around the almost empty room before coming to a stop at the poisoned wine. ” Or else, I will have no chance but to take the most extreme step. Because no way I am getting executed like the old way ...I heard that dying like that hurts a lot.”

Grandma Lan Fen nodded. ” A few years ago I met with a traitor general’s soul and he told me that when he died, he was literally begging for death to take him. I don’t see you begging but you never know..” she trailed off when Liu Hui Ying looked at her.

Getting up from her seat, she started pacing around the room. ” I think you three–”

” I am telling you that my mistress is innocent and if you want to give her a prejudiced death then so be it! I will die together with her!” A female shouted outside the room causing Liu Hui Ying to pause and turned to walk back into the front hall from her bedroom and stare at the black silhouette that was outside the paper sliding door.

” Qui Ai, listen to me–”

“I don’t need to listen to you general Yu Lingyun, I have decided my fate. If death is what awaits my mistress then I will happily follow her!” After saying that the female silhouette threw the hand of the man outside and pushed open the door.

” What the, she looks like she is sixteen or something,” said Liu Hui Ying taking the small tear-stricken face with round eyes. Two bouncing buns were tied on the head of the maid and she was dressed in a pink blouse with a sky blue skirt, her steps unsteady because of how much she was crying.

Jia Li looked at her and pointed out. ” You don’t look that old either, seventeen at most.”

“The Emperor must be a pervert,” sneered Liu Hui Ying as she stared at the maid and clapped her hands. ” But who cares about him, I got what I want.”

Grandma Lan Fen turned to look at the maid and said, ” You wanted a servant? Are we not enough for you? Did we make a mistake?”

” Shii,” making an annoyed sound, Liu Hui Ying looked at Grandma Lan Fen and said, ” I meant that I got my information ticket,” while peering out of the room, she pointed at the girl and said, ” She is going to be our informant.”
