Chapter 596 The Dungeons Xi Ying was able to save himself from his wife's questioning gaze in the end. He hurriedly left the Xi Manor with the excuse that he needed to reach Imperial Palace as soon as possible.
General Li who was sitting inside the carriage that had just left Xi Manor watched Xi Ying leaving Xi Manor hurriedly and couldn't control his laughter.
Lowering down the curtain, he laughed loudly while Yi Jie looked at her husband with a confused smile on her lips.
"Heng, what happened?"
General Li shook his head as he continued laughing and said
"Nothing…I just saw a lion running away in fear."
This confused Yi Jie more and she couldn't help but ask him.
"Who scared the lion?"
General Li stopped laughing as he looked at his wife with mirth in his eyes.
"Who else can it be? It can be his lioness only."
Yi Jie chuckled at that. Though she understood that it must not be the whole matter but she was not too interested to know it.
Instead, there was something else going inside her mind.
Perhaps she was too curious about that so she blurted out
"Heng, who poisoned me?"
The amusement vanished away from General Li's eyes. His deep eyes looked at his wife as he suddenly stood up from his seat and walked toward her.
Picking her up from her seat, he let her sit on his knees. His actions were smooth as if he had already done it so many times. Yi Jie didn't resist and silently laid her head on his chest as she heard him speak.
"I will find out soon. I promise you and I will not leave that person alive."
Yi Jie hummed. After that, General Li patted her back and whispered
"Sleep."
Yi Jie obediently closed her eyes and fell asleep while General Li continued to stare at nothing in particular with cold eyes.

Xi Ying reached the Imperial Palace early but he really had a lot of work to do. He needed to send someone to inform the Emperor of the neighboring Empire that his plans didn't get successful.
After that, he wanted to see what will be his reaction.
The first thing that Xi Ying did was to go to the Imperial prison. The Imperial Guards didn't try to stop him and bowed their heads when he entered.
However, an Imperial Guard accompanied him inside the dungeons.
Xi Ying looked to his left and right in the prison cells that were so dark.
He stopped amidst his steps when he suddenly heard a shrieking voice.
"You are here."
With a deep frown on his forehead, he turned to look in the direction from where the voice came. The voice belonged to a woman.
Her hands that were covered with soil were clutching the bars of the cell as she looked at him with a pair of eyes that were filled with hope.
It took him a few moments to recognize who exactly the woman was. However, when he did, Xi Ying's cold eyes suddenly flashed with satisfaction.
It was none other than Li Na.
Her face was covered with soil and her clothes were also not in a better condition. Looking at the torn clothes, Xi Ying's eyes didn't even flicker as he asked the Imperial Guard
"Why is she not wearing the prisoner's clothes?"
"She refused to wear them."
The Imperial Guard answered immediately. As if he thought that that was not enough, he continued
"A mama had been called to make her wear those clothes forcefully. However, she fought with the old mama making her bleed. In the end, she was left alone in this cell in the same clothes."
Xi Ying raised his eyebrows. He suddenly noticed the plate thrown outside the prison cell.
He knew that it must be the food Li Na had refused her and had thrown out in anger. Just after a day, she was like this but she still had not gotten over her haughtiness.
Xi Ying shook his head with mockery-filled eyes.
"I know that you will come to save me, Prime Minister Xi."
Li Na had dreamy eyes as she looked at Xi Ying. However, Xi Ying felt only one thing as he looked at her and that was disgust.
Without one more glance at her, he turned around and left from there.
Li Na's shouts could be heard from his behind.
"No…where are you going? Prime Minister Xi, please save me.
Desperateness and helplessness could be sensed in her voice. However, Xi Ying didn't feel any pity. The only thing he could picture in his mind was his wife.
Li Rui must have felt the same when she had been dragged inside that room by that Imperial Guard who had been hired by the Li sisters to defile her.
They never took pity on her. In fact, they tried to do it once more. It was another thing that Li Na changed her mind at the last moment and her target became him.
Xi Ying's fists clenched tightly. Unfortunately, the man was already dead.
Otherwise, he would have surely made him die a horrible death. However, there was still no loss because Li Na and Li Caihong would suffer on his behalf as well.
"Prime Minister Xi, please save me….they won't give me food."
Li Na's shout was heard again but this time, all he felt was satisfaction. She deserved it. In fact, she deserved more.
The shouts continued until the Imperial Guard forcefully stuffed her mouth with a cloth and then tied her hands with a cloth.
She could no longer shout no matter how hard she tried. Her face was red as she tried to throw out the cloth with his tongue. However, her attempts in doing so failed miserably.
The only thing she could do was to see Xi Ying's figure fading slowly and slowly. The hope that was there in her eyes vanished slowly and slowly.
She understood very late that Xi Ying was never there for her.
