Under her mistress' gaze, Li Hua suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

"I don't think that I said something wrong."

Clearing her throat she said hesitatingly which made Li Rui's eyes soften.

In fact, Li Hua had not changed. She was still timid that Li Mei. She was trying to let her feel that she was not alone and she was assuring herself that she would not leave her Miss alone and would stand for her as Li Mei and Li Zhan did.

Li Rui didn't know why her maids think that she will let anyone wrong herself. She was not that foolish.

"You really think you weren't wrong?"

She asked Li Hua while wiping her hands with the cloth.

Li Hua was silent but Li Rui knew that she was thinking over everything.

Liu Lan who was still recovering from the scene she had seen earlier saw this and couldn't help but say

"You are still taking so much to answer mistress' question. So brave of you to say something like this to Lord. I was so afraid when you said those words. For a moment, I thought that all the efforts of Miss to heal you would go waste and Lord Xii will…"

Liu Lan didn't complete her sentence but shivered which expressed clearly what she was about to say.

Li Hua raised her head and looked at Liu Lan with a frown.

"Lord Xi would have killed me. So what? I am not afraid. The suffering that my mistress had gone through in this Manor would always be a scar in my heart. If Prime Minister Xi thinks that by using his power he can shut this servant's mouth then so be it but it will not stop this servant to…"

"Li Hua"

Li Rui stopped her maid. With a serious face, she looked at her maid and said

"Do you think that I will take any wrong decision?"

Li Hua didn't say anything just twisted the end of her dress. A few moments later she murmured.

"This servant believes Young Miss. It's just…just …"

She can't watch her Young Miss with a man who didn't care for her in the past four years, who was never there whenever Young Miss needed him.

Amidst her thoughts, she heard Li Rui saying.

"You might not respect him in your heart but he is the master of this Manor so you can't disrespect him like that."

Li Hua understood what her miss was saying. For a moment she contemplated over these words and then nodded her head.

"This servant will be careful in the future, however, as long as Lord Xi doesn't become the reason of Miss' suffering anymore."

Liu Lan rolled her eyes. She walked towards Li Hua and stood beside her. Leaning a bit, she whispered in her ear.

"You don't need to worry. This was your first day but I am seeing Lord taking care of Miss for the past few weeks already. He loves our mistress very much and would never wrong her. So don't worry and have some rest."

Li Hua only shook her head at Liu Lan's words. 

Liu Lan has not seen her mistress bearing all the humiliation in Xi Manor for four years but she has. So how could anyone expect her to believe that a man who despised her wangfei enough to not step in her courtyard for four years suddenly started to love his wangfei?

Although she was silent, she was not a fool.

She was silent because she doesn't want to disobey her Young Miss. However, if the circumstances forced her she would not feel afraid to even break that rule.

Who was Lord Xi? In her eyes, there was only her Young Miss.

Just as Liu Lan was about to take Li Hua in her room, she turned around and said

"Young Miss, this servant was about to tell you something big."

Li Rui stood up from her chair and remembered that Liu Lan was actually about to tell her some big news. So she patiently looked at her and waited for her to continue.

"His Majesty passed an Imperial decree today's morning."

Li Rui frowned. Yun Clan has just been executed. What kind of decree did the Emperor pass at such a time?

"The title of the Crown Prince was taken away from the First Prince in the Imperial Court today.

The frown slowly smoothened and Li Rui's eyes were filled with surprise.

"He was dethroned?"

"Yes, Young Miss."

The chair from which she had just stood upon, she sat down back on that chair.

The words she had heard a few nights back rang in her ears.

'There are some things that I can't tell you. But trust me…'

Was he mentioning this?

General Li didn't know that Crown Prince was the one who wanted to destroy Li Clan and he put all the blame General Yun but Li Rui knew.

Li Chen had told her everything.

But after Yun Clan was executed she had left hope that the Crown Prince would ever receive the punishment of his crime. In fact, his crime would not even come out in other's eyes.

But now, she felt satisfied. He was dethroned. For him, this was the biggest punishment he could ever receive.

But how?

Was it 'him' who did all this?

"Mistress"

She came out of her trance when Liu Lan called her.

Raising her head, she found Liu Lan and Li Hua looking at herself with worried eyes.

"Miss, are you alright?"

Li Rui nodded her head and stood up from the chair.

"I have something urgent to do. Liu Lan, Go and check whether Xi Ling has eaten or not in the meantime."

"Yes, Young Miss." Liu Lan replied hurriedly when she saw Li Rui stepping out of the dining room.

However, Li Rui stopped suddenly.

Turning around, she suddenly looked at both of them and said

"Call me wangfei from now on."

Li Hua froze and looked at her with shock but Li Rui didn't notice this.. She has already walked away from there.
