Eunuch Wang called Palace maids who went inside the room.

Outside the room, everyone was still looking at the unconscious figure lying on the floor. A Eunuch brought a basin of cold water and Eunuch Wang threw it on the figure lying on the floor without any expression on his face.

"Ahhh…"

A scream echoed in the Lianxin hall and the figure lying on the floor thrashed violently.

Since it had just rained the weather was really cold. In such weather, the cold water stabs skin like cold knives so it was understandable for a person to behave like this.

However, the painful screams didn't arise any sympathy in the people's hearts. They looked at the person with disgust in their eyes.

"So this time Elder Sister chose a Eunuch?" 

Yes, it was Eunuch. The person brought out by Eunuch Wang from the room was dressed in green-colored clothes that were worn by a Palace Eunuch.

Li Caihong laughed lightly as she covered her mouth with her handkerchief.

She was ever told by her sister that making Li Rui sleep with a Eunuch was a part of their plan, but it was also something very humiliating for Li Rui so she was very satisfied.

As soon as Li Caihong completed her words, she was slapped by her mother.

Li Rong looked at her daughter as if she was looking at a stranger.

However, her eyes seemed to be looking behind Li Caihong at something. When Li Caihong had finished her words, she had seen Lord Xi's cold face and looking at the whip in his hands.

She was afraid that Lord Xi would hit her daughter so she slapped her daughter to stop him.

"Caihong, today mother is feeling like her efforts she had just wasted her efforts on you."

Li Caihong's face was still tilted as she tried to overcome the shock of being slapped by her mother.

She had never been hit in her whole life. 

She looked at her mother with red eyes and screamed

"Mother, why are you hitting me? It is not me who is going out and sleeping with a Eunuch. I am just saying a fact."

Her shrill voice made people frown.

The ladies of the noble families noted down in their hearts that they would never be supposed to ask Li Caihong's hand in marriage for their son or brothers.

After all, who would want such a brainless woman to be a part of their family?

At this moment, the maids brought out an unconscious girl from inside the room covered fully in a dress, however with her hair open.

Qin Wenya narrowed her eyes as she couldn't see the face of the girl.

"Show her face."

She ordered the maids.

Lianxin hall was deadly silent as everyone waited for the girl's face to be uncovered. 

However, before the maids could follow the Empress's order, the silence in the Lianxin hall was interrupted by a sneeze.

It was a very soft sneeze… but it seemed to be very loud in the silence of Lianxin hall.

Who would sneeze in such a serious situation?

People could not help but think as they turned around to look at the great person. 

However, they looked confused when they saw Xi Ying crossing the crowd suddenly.  They saw him tying the whip on his waist hurriedly and walking forward in long strides.

The people standing on the way made a path for him naturally. And when the path cleared, they finally saw a new person standing behind the crowd.

However, the new person just added one more shock to their shocks they have got today.

If she was here then who was the woman taken out of the room?

"Are you ill?"

Xi Ying tried to be as gentle as he could because at this moment he was really angry when he saw Li Rui's red nose.

Although she looked only more beautiful with a red nose and little misty and black eyes, he was very upset.

He doesn't want her to look beautiful like this.

He glanced at An Ju who was already standing with lowered head as if knowing her fault.

A gentle voice fell in everyone's ears and they looked at Prime Minister Xi with surprise-filled eyes.

This …what was this?

Could Prime Minister Xi also speak in such a voice?

Although they have seen him caring for Li Rui in the banquet hall, they have never thought that Lord Xi even changed the tone of his usual voice while talking to Li Rui.

Such a gentle voice that too of a cold and indifferent man like Lord Xi…a few of the maidens could not help but blush red as they felt their heartbeat quickening inside their chest.

And a few moments ago, did Lord Xi recognize Li Rui just by the sound of her sneeze?

They couldn't help but look at Li Rui with envy in their eyes.

On the other hand, the target of these maidens' envy, Li Rui was looking at the crowd of the people who were looking at her as if she was a ghost. She saw the mess in the front and frowned in confusion ...trying to figure out what was going on.

A gentle touch on her cheek made her take her gaze back and she looked at the man in front of her who was her so-called husband.

Her first instinct was to step away from his touch. However, she controlled her movement.

Fortunately, she didn't have to bear it for more time, as a shrill voice fell in her ears making Xi Ying frown deeply and then turn around.

"You…what are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be here?"

Li Caihong looked at Li Rui with wide eyes. Her face was pale because of fear and shock except for her red cheek where Li Rong had just slapped her.

Qin Wenya's fists were also clenched when she saw that Li Rui was standing safe and sound in front of her eyes.

She looked at the maid who understood the Empress' order and immediately uncovered the face of the unconscious girl they were holding.

Li Caihong had also turned around to look at the girl's face while Li Rong was feeling like her heart was in her mouth.

The face of the girl was uncovered and the mystery finally ended.
