234 Not a hypocrite

Ji Yang’s words caused the entire court to go silent, the Liu family ministers looked at the people from the Ji family who were looking rather smug and contented. Seeing them act like this, the ministers of the Liu family were very troubled they knew that the Ji family was trying to take Liu Hui Ying down and bring Ji Yu to the throne of the Empress, they were not even surprised when they saw that Ji Yang was trying to target Liu Hui Ying, after all, they knew that the Ji family had a hand in the death of Liu Fei Fei.

The members of the Liu family were very upset, especially Liu Hui Ying’s father Second official Liu, Liu Song Lei. He looked at Ji Yang who was trying to drag his daughter and immediately said, ” What are you trying to say, prime minister Ji? My daughter has always been delicate, she has never even seen a dead body in all her life and even the very mention of death scares her, are you saying that my daughter who is even scared to see someone die is behind the death of Consort Liu and that too who was her own cousin? Are you trying to pull someone’s leg by saying this? Where will my daughter learn something like this?”

The more Liu Song Lei spoke the angry he got, his daughter was the apple of his eye, ever since she lost her mother, he was the one who raised her and taught her everything. There was even a time when she broke her arm and could not eat, back then he was worried that someone would try to harm his daughter when she was vulnerable and took care of her with his own hands.

For his daughter he was her father as well as her mother, he has always protected Liu Hui Ying with all his heart and this time if not for his brother telling him that they needed to send Liu Hui Ying to save their family, he would have never allowed Liu Hui Ying to marry the Emperor. In his eyes, even the Emperor was a rotten man who did not deserve to marry his daughter! What was so good about the Emperor?



In the morning Pei Pei? In the night Li Li, so many concubines were waiting for him throughout the entire day, why should his daughter be one of those women? But because his elder was the head of the Liu family, he had no other choice but to listen to his orders and send his daughter to this fire pit and now that his daughter has jumped into this fire pit, the Ji family was targeting her. On what basis?

” Maybe the right prime minister is trying to say that we teach our daughters to kill innocent people every day,” Liu Dong Ming suddenly spoke causing the entire court to suck in a breath because this was their first time seeing Liu Dong Ming attack someone upfront like this. With his expression as calm as a lake with no ripples in it, Liu Dong Ming looked at Ji Yang who despite the easygoing expression on his face his body has stiffened. ” Maybe he is trying to say that we the members of the Liu family teach our kids to kill from a very young age, if not then how can they be so skilled in killing when they are still so young?”

” Left prime minister Liu is thinking too much,” Ji Yang understood that Liu Dong Ming was not going to accept his defeat so easily, which was why he immediately toned his aggressive stance down and then smiled at Liu Dong Ming in a friendly manner. ” I was just saying that there is a rumour going around in the imperial harem that the Empress is the one who is behind consort Liu’s death, according to some, the Empress and Consort Liu had some scuffle with each other a few days ago, I was only saying this because I thought that you would want to prove the innocence of the Empress.”

He paused as a sly glint flashed in his eyes. ” I mean you would not want her majesty’s reputation to get tarnished now, will you prime minister Liu?”

There was indeed a rumour like this going around in the imperial palace of course it was because of the servants under the Ji family who were ordered to do so but the more rumours like these were to spread the more they will take the form of a ferocious tiger before the Liu family gets implicated along with Liu Hui Ying.

.....

Sharpening the blade without letting it fall on the neck of his enemies, Ji Yang was very much skilled in this technique.

Liu Dong Ming stared at Ji Yang who was trying his best to pretend that he was not the one who was behind the death of Liu Fei Fei and that he was simply trying to help the Liu family solve a problem.

With his skills of course Liu Dong Ming could sense that Ji Yang was targeting Liu Hui Ying but the problem was—— he turned to look at Zhai Tianyu who looked very much tensed as he looked at Ji Yang and mentally shook his head.

The Emperor was very much trusting of the Ji family, he asked his sister to treat Zhai Tianyu well when he was a kid but …. His eyes flashed and hatred surged in his heart, if he was in the place of his sister he too would have never accepted that child.

But Liu Dong Ming did not let his emotions take control, he knew that this was not the time for him to lose control of himself and then raised his head to look at Ji Yang who was only a bit short of showing a smug smile on his face as he said, ” Did her majesty say that she was the one who was behind this case? If so then I might believe that she was indeed the one who killed my daughter.”
