Xi Ying watched as Li Rui left his hand and walked to her sister calmly. He could only sigh as looking at his empty hand.
When did he start to become so clingy? He couldn't help but wonder himself.
In the same way, Zhao Zhang Wei had also put down his hand. This disappointment on his face disappeared as if it was never there and he maintained his usual gentle expression.
"Rui…"
He saw a smile on his wangfei's lips and subconsciously moved his gaze to the person with a frown who was the reason for her smile.
Why doesn't she smile when he was with her?
No, she actually smiles but it was one that was polite and distant.
Fortunately, the person who came in his sight was a woman..
His frown smoothened down a bit; however, it was still there, because he couldn't recognize the woman.
But he couldn't look at her anymore, as the next moment; someone's figure blocked his sight.
Raising his head, he saw the young and clever Prime Minister Xi's face who had a very cold face for some reason.
"Your Highness should control his eyes from roaming on this one's wangfei."
'Minister Xi's wangfei…Oh, so this woman was General Li's daughter.' Zhao Zhang Wei concluded inside his heart.
And the next moment, he scoffed as he pondered over the words Xi Ying just said.
"Minister Xi, Are you always this petty or do you have something special against Benwang?"
"Your wangfei is talking to Benwang's wangfei and Benwang had never seen her. So Benwang was just curious that which woman could make Benwangfei smile."
However, his words just fell on deaf ears.
Xi Ying just didn't like how the second Prince was looking at Li Rui, that too, for a much longer time. He knew that the Imperial Princes' heart swayed easily as soon as they would see beauty so how could he not feel furious when the second Prince looked at Li Rui?
Especially when his wangfei was so beautiful.
It made his heart very uncomfortable.
"Your Highness should be aware of, for exactly how much time a man can stare at an unknown woman even if it is only out of curiosity."
Looking at Zhao Zhang Wei, Xi Ying said very coldly.
At these words, Zhao Zhang Wei almost rolled his eyes forgetting his image of a Prince.
The rumors he had heard said that Prime Minister Xi disliked his wangfei and had never visited her courtyard in four years.
However, he also knew how the same minister was famous to be against General Li but was found to be helping Li Clan by his people.
Minister Xi had his own thoughts.
He had actually understood that there was no benefit in talking to this unreasonable person so he only said one sentence.
"Minister Xi, Benwang thinks that you just like to drink vinegar…even if you are not made to drink it, you're drinking it by yourself."
Xi Ying narrowed his eyes but Zhao Zhang Wei had stepped sideways to look at Yi Huiqing who was now chatting with General Li's daughter.
"Rui, did you see Yi Lei? I heard from somewhere that he had a large part of his face burnt while he was abducted."
Yi Huiqing asked softly in a choked voice.
She had actually written to her mother when she had got to know about it. However, her mother avoided answering her question in her letter very successfully. But as her mother's daughter, she also understood that it must be true because her mother also did not deny it in her letter.
The following night had been sleepless for her.
Her young and naïve brother…just how much pain was he in when they burnt his face.
Her heart clenched with pain just at the mere thought of this.
On the other hand, Zhao Zhang Wei bit his lips as he cursed himself inside his heart.
Why didn't it come to his mind ever that Qingqing would want to meet her family? He could already imagine her joyful smile if he had thought of this and had invited her family to the Imperial Palace.
If only…
However, there were no 'If only's in the real life which soon got confirmed when he heard General Li's daughter's next words.
"Jiejie doesn't need to worry about. Yi Lei is very fine now. Jiejie will be able to meet him as he must have come to the banquet."
At these words, Yi Huiqing nodded her head and she couldn't wait to go inside the banquet and see her family.
Zhao Zhang Wei, of course, noticed the impatience on her face.
"Benwang thinks that we should leave now."
He said thoughtfully and smiled when Yi Huiqing immediately nodded her head. However, the smile disappeared soon when he saw Yi Huiqing turning to General Li's daughter again and saying.
"Rui, why don't you enter with me?"
"No"
"No"
In response to Yi Huiqing's question, there were two 'no's heard, even before Li Rui could answer her Jiejie's question.
Both the women raised their heads to look at their respective husbands who were also looking at each other coldly.
It was Xi Ying who moved his eyes away from Zhao Zhang Wei to Li Rui first. In a small moment of shifting eyes from one face to another, the expression on his face changed greatly.
"Rui, I meant that if you want then Princess can enter with us. After all, she is your sister."
He said gently.
However, the condition was that he should be with her also which was very well hidden in his words.
Li Rui didn't seem to mind this suggestion and looked at her sister.
But when Yi Huiqing was about to open her mouth, Zhao Zhang Wei started to speak before her.
"The four of us will enter together. Benwang will not let Benwangfei enter alone and give other people any chance to raise their fingers at our relationship."
His words allowed no refusal.
To show this, he even turned around and stood in front of the gates as if showing that he was ready to go inside and they also have to come with him.
It doesn't matter whether they were willing or not.
