" But hasn't aunt already paid for you to look for the murderer?" Zhai Cheng too thought that Liu Hui Ying was asking for a lot of things if they were to hand so many things to her then everyone will think that they were supporting the Liu Family, if so then it will bring unnecessary trouble to them in the future.

When Grand Dowager Empress heard that her daughter has paid for the case, she became emboldened and turned to look at Liu Hui Ying before she raised her brow and asked, " Is this true?"

Liu Hui Ying smiled she did not look at all uncomfortable under the scrutiny of the three people in fact she was rather calm. She straightened her posture and then sighed before placing her arms in front of her on the table and then intertwining her fingers together as she looked at  them with a smile,  " Your majesty the grand dowager empress, do you have a piece of very expensive silk?"

Grand Dowager Empress frowned before she nodded and replied. " I do have a piece of expensive silk along with many other dresses but what does that have to do with this?"

" I will explain it in due time, first answer me," Liu Hui Ying kept smiling as she stared the woman in front of her in the eye and continued, " You keep your precious silk in safe containers right? Making sure that they do not get infected or dirtied by anything? That they don't catch a worm, right?"

" That is right," even though Grand Dowager Empress did not understand what Liu Hui Ying was trying to explain by this example but she still nodded in response. " Silk is really hard to take care of which is why I have even hired a few workers to take care of it."

" That's right, silk is delicate, it cannot be dirtied or else it will be destroyed if not taken proper care of, you must be keeping it in a very wonderful and secured wooden box right?" Liu Hui Ying smiled and reached out to point at Zhai Chenguang who was standing behind Zhai Tianyu and said, " A soul is just as delicate as a piece of silk fabric, its locked in the container of what you call a body and when the body is gone, it is taken away by caretakers who will take care of it but by any chance that does not happen then do you know what will happen?

The soul will start getting destroyed slowly with the dirt of this world, such that it will no longer be accepted by the caretakers."

Grand Dowager Empress raised her head as she looked at Liu Hui Ying in shock who continued to smile as if she was not telling Grand Dowager Empress that her daughter's soul will not be accepted by the people of the underworld.

" In case the soul is damaged either it will have to wait until it is disintegrated or it will have to wait for people like me who will help them return to their original form, to say in simpler words— exorcising a soul, if you want me to exorcise her soul then you will have to pay me another sum of money do you understand?

Because what your daughter has paid me for is to look for the murderer and nothing more, is that clear now?"

It could not be any clearer than this! Grand Dowager Empress despite being unwilling could see that Liu Hui Ying had thought of everything.

When Liu's family pushed her grandson to marry their family's girl, Grand Dowager Empress had already sworn that she will make things difficult for this woman till the very end but now it looks like Liu Hui Ying was the one who was going to make things difficult for her!

From her dowry to another place to stay, Liu Hui Ying has won everything back from her!

" Very well," but before Grand Dowager Empress could think of a way to get herself out of this mess she heard Zhai Tianyu speak and what was more, he actually agreed to the requests that Liu Hui Ying made, what the hell?

She immediately whirled around to look at Zhai Tianyu and spoke in a reproachful voice," Tianyu what are you thinking ?"

" I am thinking straight grandmother," Zhai Tianyu was not wrong either, these days the Liu Family was making a lot of fuss regarding Liu Hui Ying's living conditions in fact they have already summited quite a lot of memorandum. He was even thinking of giving Liu Hui Ying another place to stay and this was the reason why he did not say anything when Liu Hui Ying asked for another courtyard.

He had to give her a new place to stay anyway, did it really matter if she was to get that place a bit earlier than before?

Grand Dowager Empress was rather upset but she still pursed her lips and left her grandson to deal with this case. Anyway since he said that he was thinking straight then he might have thought of something before agreeing to Liu Hui Ying's request.

She was already old there was no need for her to fuss anymore, she inhaled sharply and then turned to look at Liu Hui Ying before asking, " Now can we move past this? Are you willing to accept?"

" Sure," now that she has stolen everything she could from this old hag, Liu Hui Ying did not have any more trouble either, she snapped her fingers and then a scroll that had all the conditions written on it came flying before unravelling itself in front of the Grand Dowager Empress, to others it flew but only Zhai Tianyu could see that it was Jia Li who brought the scroll in front of his grandmother.

She too seemed to be excited to get the money when Jia Li caught his gaze, she lifted her hand and said,  " Liu Hui Ying has promised me that if we buy enough money she will allow me to peep at the gigglos in the red light district, even though they are not as good looking as you, I will take what I can."

Zhai Tianyu: "….."
