The maid who was guarding Li Caihong's room had a very tense face.
She put her ear on the door of the room sometimes as she tried to hear if she could hear anything that was going on inside the room.
However, she couldn't hear anything.
It had been very long now and the terrifying silence was the only thing that she could hear from the room. It made her wonder whether the other maid inside the room was still alive or not.
And if she was not then was she going to stay alive or not?
The maid swallowed nervously when she thought this and just at this moment, the door of Li Caihong's room and the other maid stepped outside from the room.
Her face had a very large smile while the first maid looked at her in confusion until the other maid suddenly showed her a few gold coins.
The maid's eyes widened seeing the gold coins. Never in her life had she seen a gold coin! It was a silver coin at the most.
Her hands trembled when she took a coin from the other maid and felt it.
The other maid gave her a total of five coins …all of them were made from gold and then she left from there.
Outside the Li Caihong's courtyard, the maid took out the small packet that she had been hiding inside her robe and counted the coins.
Her eyes flashed with relief after a few moments. This much should be enough to treat her mother. Her eyes then flashed with panic and fear when she remembered what Li Caihong had said to her.
'Find out how he got his face treated! If you did then I will give you more…but if you couldn't then be ready to get skinned alive.'
The maid swallowed in fear remembering Li Caihong's terrifying face when she had said these words.
She needed to find out how Yi Lei got his scar treated!
And she needed to do it soon!
Because Yi Lei was soon going to leave the Imperial City.
The maid ran to the exit of Li Manor when she remembered this.
.
.
.
At Li Manor's gates, Yi Jie was talking to Yi Lei when the maid reached there.
Yi Jie's eyes were filled with happiness as she looked at Yi Lei's face. Her hand rose to touch the light scar and she whispered
"It has started to fade."
Yi Lei smiled lightly and held his Aunt's hand. Yi Jie was like a second mother to him as most of the time of his childhood he had spent in Li Manor.
"It is all because of Jiejie. The ointment she had given to me was just magic."
Yi Jie's eyes widened when she heard this and she whispered with shock.
"Rui….Rui gave some ointment to you?"
Yi Lei nodded his head and then told Yi Jie how Li Rui used to send him the same ointment every month. In fact, in the beginning, he had never expected that this scar would fade.
He was ready to live with this face for his whole life. However, when had he thought that his sister who had always helped him in any kind of trouble would help him here too like a fairy.
On the other hand, the maid heard whatever Yi Lei said to Yi Jie and her eyes were filled with shock and confusion.
Though Li Rui had treated Zhao Bo Jin during the Mid Autumn Banquet Festival, not many people knew about it as Xi Ying had ensured at that time that this news would not spread.
However, it was not only Xi Ying who did this. Even Zhao Wang Lei had done the same through Princess Wenling.
Princess Wenling never wanted the people of the Imperial City to know about this incident.
As she had been afraid that people would start to look at Li Rui with a changed perspective after they will come to know about her medical skills.
So with these powerful forces suppressing this matter, not many people came to know about this and hence the maid thought that Li Rui had also got the ointment from some physician.
She noted everything inside her mind carefully and went back to Li Caihong's courtyard.
She had found everything out so soon. Perhaps Third Young Lady would give her more money than the promised amount.
Thinking this, she was very happy and hurriedly went to tell everything to Li Caihong.
Li Caihong was also waiting eagerly for the maid. She couldn't even wait for a shichen after she had a hope that her face could become like before.
Her father had actually called for many physicians but none of them ever said that the scar on her face could fade. So she had left any hope and was filled with resentment that she would have to live inside this room for her whole life.
She didn't want anyone to see her ugly face.
However, now there was hope and she would do anything to make it possible. When the maid guarding the door of her room informed her that the other maid was back, Li Caihong eagerly allowed the maid to come inside her room.
"What is it…what is it?"
The maid looked at Li Caihong's eager face and she felt happier.
The happy Li Caihing only meant that her news would make her happier and she immediately told her whatever she had heard outside Li Manor.
However, Li Caihong's expressions changed greatly after hearing whatever the maid said.
Her eyes were blank as she seemed to remember that once her father had sent her an ointment through a maid. However, when her maid had told her that it was sent by Li Rui.
Her fists clenched when at the same time she remembered how Li Rui had treated Zhao Bo Jin during the banquet in the Imperial Palace.
So she couldn't even doubt what the maid was saying.
Somehow she knew that that ointment was made by Li Rui herself.
However, what was unacceptable to her was that she would have to ask Li Rui for the medicine.
Li Caihong felt very irritated. There was a cure but was she ready to put aside a mountain-sized ego to get that cure.
She didn't know.
In that frustration, she picked the teacup from the table and threw it on the maid that was hoping to get some money.
And the maid was left shocked.
---------
That night after Li Rui slept, Xi Ying left the Plum Courtyard for a while.
He went to his study room and there he wrote a letter and then sent his shadow guard to Zhao Zhang Wei.
Inside the Xinhe Palace, Zhao Zhang Wei was wide awake.
His mind was actually filled with whatever Xi Ying had told him today as he stared out of the window of his chambers.
Should he be a little forceful and try to show Yi Huiqing that he really loves her?
He didn't really know. Even if he gathered his courage, every time he would remember Yi Huiqing's pain-filled eyes as she had told him to leave her alone and never show his face to her, all of his courage would disappear.
It was at that moment, Zhao Zhang Wei saw a shadow guard leaping inside his chamber.
His face went serious as she recognized the shadow guard even though only his eyes were visible. The shadow guard was sent by Xi Ying.
Zhao Zhang Wei took the letter that the shadow guard gave to him and immediately opened it.
Sending a letter so late, he thought that something must be the matter that forced Xi Ying to do so.
Sure enough when Zhao Zhang Wei read the letter, his face went deathly serious.
Qin Wenya knew everything now.
Actually not everything but still not more than she should have known.
Making a fool out of Zhao Zhuang Chen was easy but fooling Qin Wenya was not.
Zhao Zhang Wei sighed as he read how Xi Ying had assured him that he will manage it but he still asked him to say careful and keep an eye if Qin Wenya will send someone to keep an eye on him or not.
He was not worried regarding the latter part.
If Qin Wenya really sent someone to keep an eye on him then he will manage it very well. However, he wondered how Xi Ying was going to manage this problem named Qin Wenya.
On the other hand, inside his study room, Xi Ying was sitting on his chair with a blank face. A moment later, he looked down at the book in his hands.
The books had the portrait of Noble Consort Shu.
He had asked his shadow guard to find a portrait of Noble Consort Shu. Xi Ying was actually very curious to know why Zhao Wang Lei favored Noble Consort Shu so much in the past when he was so obsessed with Yi Jie.
However, when Xi Ying saw Noble Consort Shu's portrait, he finally figured out why was it so!
His eyes narrowed suddenly as if he was thinking something very deeply.
A few moments later, Xi Ying's eyes flashed, and his brows that were knitted in a frown also smoothened.
A smirk formed on Xi Ying's lips.
Now he knew how he was going to manage Qin Wenya.
