Detective Ghost Empress

He was like a cat whose tail has been stepped on because he glared at Liu Hui Ying with eyes that no longer held their usual grace, instead of those gentle glimmers that shone in his eyes, they were flickering with a wild energy that made him look almost maniacal. ” What kind of joke is this?” He shouted with an enraged voice while his eyes drilled into Liu Hui Ying’s. ” Do you think this is fun? Questioning the masculinity of a man? A scholar with pride?”

Liu Hui Ying did not say anything while the man was shouting at her, instead, she calmly looked at him and waited until he was finished shouting. She looked at the man who was no longer a complete man in the terms of this world and her eyes for he had hurt a woman who was completely innocent, she leaned back in her chair and then said in a soft voice, ” Your yang energy is all over the place, your skin is cold and I do not feel the masculine energy running in your veins as it does in other men, instead your yang energy has depleted in an uncanny manner, which shows either that you are impotent or you have lost the proof of your masculinity.”

” But if you were impotent then your Yang energy would not be scattered all over your body, it would have been stored in a place because of no release or it might have been completely missing,” she tilted her head to the side causing Master Wei to stiffen as he realised that she was not making a joke out of him but was actually using his physiognomy to back up her facts. ” But instead it’s scattered all over your body that shows that you lost your masculine strength because of a sudden accident, your eyes are sunk even though you are using powder to hide them but I can see them all very clearly, your complexion lacks the healthy glow of a man who has been married meaning that you have never once engaged in sexual activities but ...”

She trailed off and tapped her fingers on the armrest. ” If you were married how is it possible for you to not have any sexual intercourse?”

Her questions came rapidly and with facts that would back her up, as soon as someone was to take a look at Scholar Wei properly, they will be able to see that what she was speaking was the truth. Unlike Zhai Tianyu, Zhai Heng and Yu Lingyun, Scholar Wei looked weaker and someone who could be easily beaten up but there was something else, his body looked almost too sickly.

” What...What nonsense!” Scholar Wei’s eyes widened as he looked at Liu Hui Ying but even though he looked highly affronted, he was not able to retort Liu Hui Ying causing the others to take a long look at his physique, when Zhai Tianyu saw what Liu Hui Ying said was indeed true.

Even though Scholar Wei has taken great care of his face, one could see that he was looking a bit weaker than them. At first, they thought that it was because he was a scholar and did not have much strength but now that he was looking at Scholar Wei even more carefully he realised that the man looked far weaker than the other scholars as if he was sick with some serious disease, almost at once Zhai Tianyu’s face sank as he realised that he has been fooled by a eunuch.

” If you think that I am speaking nonsense then why don’t we do this, we can call a eunuch and have him check you up,” Liu Hui Ying curled a side of her lips with a mocking look in her eyes. ” If you don’t like it then we can always have someone among these three to check up on you, after all, you were a man once as well, no... that’s wrong.” She paused as she leaned her cheek on the knuckles of her hand and then looked at Scholar Wei. ” According to you, you are still a man. There is no need for you to shy away and show your masculinity to them right?”

.....

” No...how ....this is senseless...a complete blasphemy!” Scholar Wei acted as if he has been wronged but he did not say a word that will show that he was agreeing with Liu Hui Ying at all. Instead, he became even paler than he was before like he was scared of getting his secret known to others.

” I will do it,” Yu Lingyun stood up from his seat as he looked at Scholar Wei with his jaw set and his lips pressed in a thin line. He has never thought that they will be fooled like this, if what Liu Hui Ying said was the actual truth then he can say that the entire imperial family has been played by this man and everyone else who was with him.

Scholar Wei’s eyes turned as wide as saucers as Yu Lingyun stepped closer to him, he looked at the man in front of him and then turned to look at Zhai Tianyu before he said in a stuttering voice, ” Your majesty, you can not have them disrespect me like this... I am a man, I am your official. If I am disrespected what will others think of me? Don’t let them do this to me.”

But Zhai Tianyu was no longer in a sane mood, he looked at Scholar Wei and coldly said, ” If you prove them wrong then I will have his head chopped off and the general’s hands chopped away as well but for now, prove your identity as a man, Uncle.”
