Detective Ghost Empress

" AHHHHHHHH!"

A wretched scream echoed in the forest and the hunting grounds, Yu Lingyun who was sleeping in the same tent as Zhai Heng jumped on his bed and then went to take his sword out of his sheathe as he shouted,  " The zombies are attacking, Ah Heng! Get ready to die!"

Zhai Heng also woke up from his sleep when he heard his brother's scream but he was much more conscious than Yu Lingyun, he picked up his pillow and threw it at Yu Lingyun before snapping, " Wake up you idiot, what are you dreaming about all day long?"

Yu Lingyun snapped out of his daze when he was hit with the pillow, he looked around and was stunned when he saw that there was nothing surrounding him and sheepishly withdrew his sword before turning to look at Zhai Heng as he climbed down the bed on which he was sleeping as he said,  " Its nothing when I saw his majesty talk to air when we returned it stuck in my head and …after that my thoughts spiralled out of control."

Even though Zhai Tianyu did not say anything Yu Lingyun knew that he was talking with a ghost, thought Zhai Tianyu was fine while talking with ghosts, Yu Lingyun was still just as terrified of them as he was before and if possible he was even more terrified after seeing the strength of the queen who could summon an army of dead if she was to lose control.

Thus, one thought led to another and before he knew it, his entire dream was full of zombies and more zombies who were eating humans and their human brains, the scream that echoed in the clearing just now only served as the final straw making his dream become something even more scary.

" Who screamed by the way?" Yu Lingyun asked, the scream and the voice sounded quite similar to that of the Emperor but when he thought about how he watched the Emperor go inside his tent, Yu Lingyun was sure that there was no way the Emperor was screaming in the forest.

That guy could not wait to pounce on the queen, surely he will not act gentlemanly in the face of such an opportunity?

But then another thought came to his head and he turned to look at Zhai Heng and asked with a worried voice, his face paler than a ghost, " Brother Heng, don't tell me that his majesty went to make advances on the queen and she got annoyed before taking a knife and…chopped off the heavenly weapon…what will happen to the heir now?

Will he die in his majesty's heavenly balls before even getting a chance to live?"

" What nonsense are you talking about?" Zhai Heng snapped he almost got jealous, almost but then the image that Yu Lingyun filled his mind terrified him so much that he slipped off the bed and he said with half convincing voice, " The scream came from the forest and not from the tent next to ours."

" Are you sure?" Yu Lingyun asked with an innocent yet concerned voice. " I mean if we go in time there is still time to reconnect and make the heavenly weapon come back to life, once it shrivels up…there is no saving it. Our Emperor will become a eunuch."

Zhai Heng stared at Yu Lingyun who stared back at him before the two dashed out of the tent in a hurry as they rushed to the tent where Zhai Tianyu was staying with the Queen.

Yu Lingyun caught hold of the guard who was sleeping and shook him awake while slapping him on the face as he said, " You bastard you are sleeping like a baby here and the babies of his majesty are in danger, what kind of guard are you?"

The guard did not even know what was going on, all he knew was that he was shaken awake and then his face was beaten like a drum.

" Wh...What?" The guard asked in a daze while Zhai Heng rolled his eyes and then opened the flap of the tent just a small bit while peeking inside the tent all ready to see Zhai Tianyu on the ground with blood and sausage on the floor but instead, all he saw was Liu Hui Ying sleeping peacefully on the bed.

As soon as his gaze fell on the sleeping face of Liu Hui Ying which was smoother than jade and devoid of her usual frown, he was shocked and stunned at the same time, his heartbeat escalated a bit and he could not help but comment, " Even without dressing up at the middle of the night she looks like the shining moon."

Yu Lingyun was slapping the guard but when he heard this remark coming from his friend's mouth, he threw the guard who fainted again and pulled Zhai Heng back by his collar and then turned his face with great difficulty to look at him as he asked, " Is this the time?

That woman might be covered with blood and holding a knife while smiling sinisterly and you are standing here watching your brother suffer the loss of his little brother with a smile while saying —— oh, you look beautiful your majesty?"

Seeing that Zhai Heng was still looking longingly at the tent Yu Lingyun rolled his eyes muttering how he had to act as the straight man in such a situation while readying himself to drag Zhai Tianyu out all the while saving him from the clutches of her majesty.

Zhai Heng still wanted to take another look at Liu Hui Ying but when he saw that Yu Lingyun was walking inside the tent, he pulled him back and then said while clearing his throat, " His majesty is not there, her majesty is sleeping alone."

Yu Lingyun tilted his head back and then looked at Zhai Heng before shaking his head as he said, " My dear one of these days you will start a war, say the important thing first!

What is with this she looks more beautiful than the moon—— I swear I gagged." As he was speaking, Zhai Heng turned Yu Lingyu's face towards Xiao Ai who was sleeping next to the queen's tent and watched the man's face go slack as he remarked, " She looks like a moon fairy."

Zhai Heng: "…"

Yu Lingyun: "….."
