On his way to the Xi Manor from the Imperial Palace, Xi Ying's face didn't look too good.
He was actually disappointed in himself.
Though he managed to handle the situation very well, he should have thought that this could have happened.
Involving Qin Wenya in these schemes was not a good thing because she was too clever…at least more clever than Zhao Zhuang Chen and he didn't want to put most of his time into keeping a check whether Qin Wenya was going to tell Zhao Wang Lei everything or not.
Though he had already appointed a shadow guard to keep an eye on Qin Wenya's action, Xi Ying was still not that relieved.
He needed more people. In fact, he should have gathered all his shadow guards before already. Now with time, he would need more and more people who would help him in keeping an eye on many people at the same time.
Xi Ying didn't fear if Qin Wenya really told everything to Zhao Wang Lei. He could Zhao Wang Lei directly too. However, the problem lay in the fact that General Li was still not on his side.
If the direct war happened between him and Zhao Wang Lei, then he would be forced to fight against General Li and Li Clan as well.
He needed to go to Li Manor and talk to General Li as soon as possible.
Xi Ying suddenly thought of this as he turned his horse in the direction of Li Manor.

"Take care of yourself. Don't worry about anything. I will manage everything."
Lu Jianye said to Li Na gently.
At this moment, both of them were standing at the end of the street that led to Li Manor.
"Alright."
Li Na said with a smile on her lips. A moment later, she licked her lips attracting Lu Jianye's attention more …something which she obviously noticed.
Very proud of herself inside her heart, she asked Lu Jianye finally the question that had been bothering her for quite a long now.
"Who was that girl, Young Master Lu?"
Lu Jianye stiffened at the question as he obviously understood about whom Li Na was asking.
When Lu Jianye got to know that Li Na had been allowed to leave Li Manor finally, he immediately sent his servant to Li Na who told her that he will wait for her in front of the temple that was near the border of the Imperial City.
The temple was situated in the scheduled area. Lu Jianye had not actually hoped that Li Na would really come to meet him but she did and there was no one who could be happier than him.
However, he didn't from where Yu Wei suddenly appeared there.
Lu Jianye had never expected Yu Wei to be there. He had not wanted to care at all, however, when he saw Yu Wei's eyes that were filled with pain seeing him as if he has betrayed her, he felt a little guilty inside his heart. After all, they had been betrothed since their childhood.
Until he saw Li Na, Lu Jianye had actually never thought of not marrying Yu Wei. He had not seen her for years but he didn't really care whom he was going to marry. His main purpose was to reach a high position in the Imperial Court and then make Lu Clan's reputation bigger and bigger.
He wanted Lu Clan to be counted in one of the high-ranking noble families.
However, after seeing Li Na, all that seemed to be very small in front of the temptation of making her his.
However, the guilt inside his heart had vanished when he had seen Yu Wei's contempt-filled eyes on Li Na.
"Brother Jianye, this girl…she is not good for you."
When she had looked back at her, she had said to him.
Lu Jianye didn't like at all what Yu Wei said. He didn't like the guilt he was feeling inside his heart. It suddenly seemed to him that he was never at fault.
That betrothal was never fixed with his wish. It was fixed at the time he didn't even know what marriage actually meant.
So he was never at fault.
"Leave from here."
He had told Yu Wei sharply.
Lu Jianye perhaps didn't notice but Yu Wei had visibly flinched at his sharp tone. Li Na had seen it. She had noticed Yu Wei's contempt and envy-filled eyes too.
Li Na had always enjoyed it when someone was envious of her. She wanted to be that great.
That every girl of her age in the Imperial City will envy her.
Li Na smiled when she remembered Yu Wei's envy-filled eyes. She came out of her trance when she heard Lu Jianye's words.
"I have asked you so many times that don't call me Young Master Lu."
Li Na lowered her head shyly when she saw Lu Jianye's intense eyes fixed on herself as he said those words.
"Then what should I call you?"
She asked Lu Jianye shyly.
"Will you call me what I will say?"
Li Na nodded her head as she twirled her hair around her fingers. She felt very proud that she could capture the heart of a man like Lu Jianye.
Though he was not the best, for now, he could become the best in the future, right? And he looked quite handsome too.
"Brother Jianye…call me that."
Li Na rolled her eyes. Since her head was lowered, Lu Jianye never noticed her actions.
When she raised her head, she pretended very well to look angry as she said
"I will not call you by that. That girl…she was also calling you like that. And don't try to divert my attention."
Lu Jianye's body went stiff. He was indeed trying to do that.
Though he had accepted his father's condition, he had not told Li Qiang and Li Na that he was going to take Yu Wei as his concubine in Lu Manor just after his marriage with Li Na.
Li Na, on the other hand, found Lu Jianye's actions very weird.
Her eyes narrowed and her lips were pressed in a thin line. Was that woman perhaps more important to Lu Jianye than her?
She was not envious. She was just angry on thinking that if Lu Jianye really had some other girl in his life already then she would be mocked for that.
A moment later, she said
"Lu Jianye, if you are hiding something then you better tell me that now.. Otherwise, I am going to my father right now and cancel this marriage."
