Chapter 601 Rui Wants To Know Who Sent Gu Li As soon as the Imperial Assembly finished and Zhao Wang Lei left the Imperial Court, Xi Ying decided to go to Xi Manor.
Before he was thinking of visiting Xinhe Palace and then going to Zhao Wang Lei to ask whether he had started to find out who poisoned Yi Jie or not.
But now, he only wanted to make sure that Li Rui and Xi Ling were sound and safe.
So Xi Ying left the Imperial Palace immediately.
On the other hand, Zhao Wang Lei went back to the Imperial Chambers first. He first asked Eunuch Wang whether he found out anything about who poisoned Yi Jie. When Eunuch Wang said no, Zhao Wang Lei asked him about Youxio shadow guards.
However, he only heard a 'no' for both of his questions.
Zhao Wang Lei was frustrated and kicked the nearby table. Eunuch Wang flinched immediately.
"Is Zhen left with not enough power to find out about these simple matters?"
Eunuch Wang's head was lowered and he never said anything in response. As Zhao Wang Lei breathed heavily, he only poured him some water but Zhao Wang Lei pushed the glass away as well.
Helpless, Eunuch Wang could only tell him honestly.
"Your Majesty, Xi Manor is tightly guarded so it is not possible for our people to find out whether those shadow guards are still inside the Manor or not. This servant had sent people to find their companions if they know anything about them in any case. This servant will try to find out everything as soon as possible."
Zhao Wang Lei sighed deeply.
In fact, he should not be worried about this matter this much. He thought inside his heart. One thing he was sure of now was that Li Rui was still safe and sound.
Otherwise, Xi Ying would not have attended today's Imperial Assembly.
Youxio shadow guards were unsuccessful in their job. He just felt a little despaired over the fact that even they couldn't kill Li Rui.
The more he was facing difficulty in killing Li Rui, the more he was believing with the time that he really needed to kill her.
The only thing that gave him relief was that Youxio shadow guards would never reveal his identity and hence Xi Ying would never get to know that it was he who had sent them.
"What about the other matter?"
Zhao Wang Lei asked Eunuch Wang. However, since Eunuch Wang's head was lowered, he never saw his expression and flicker in his eyes as the old Eunuch told him
"The investigation is still ongoing, Your Majesty."
Zhao Wang Lei's lips were pressed in a thin line. He waved his hand dismissing Eunuch Wang and sat inside his chambers for a few moments.
After that, he went to the Imperial Study room.
Eunuch Wang followed him silently with guilt-filled eyes. Perhaps it was the first time he was lying to his master but according to him, it was very important to hide this matter from his master.

Xi Ying reached Xi Manor soon. He didn't ride his horse. Instead, when he was at safe distance away from Imperial Manor, he used qingqong and reached Xi Manor soon.
"Is everything alright, An Shing?"
Xi Ying asked An Shing as he entered Xi Manor.
An Shing's face looked serious when he heard his master's question and he told him truthfully whatever transpired in Xi Manor in the morning.
Xi Ying halted amidst his steps as he heard everything An Shing said. His face was emotionless and his eyes were blank.
After An Shing finished saying everything, he had expected his master to reprimand him. However, contrary to what he had expected, his master just walked away from him.
The first thing that Xi Ying did was to go to Plum Courtyard to see Li Rui and Xi Ling. However, when he opened the door of their room, he didn't find Li Rui inside.
With a sigh, he walked toward his son's room. However, a deep frown marred his forehead when he didn't find Li Rui and Xi Ling there as well.
His heart was filled with panic after hearing everything from An Shing and not being able to find Li Rui and Xi Ling only increased his restlessness.
"An Su."
Xi Ying shouted loudly and soon An Su appeared in front of him.
"Master."
An Su greeted his master respectfully. However, ignoring his greeting, Xi Ying asked him hurriedly
"Where are Rui and Xi Ling?"
An Su looked at his master and immediately knew that his master already knew about whatever happened in the morning. He swallowed as he told his master though his heart was filled with fear.
"Young Master is playing outside in the presence of shadow guards and My Lady…she is inside the room…"
An Su didn't finish his words perhaps because his courage vanished suddenly while Xi Ying was getting more restless.
"In which room?"
Frustration and impatience were evident in his voice. An Su didn't dare to delay anymore and finally told his master.
"Inside the room where those shadow guards are tied."
Sure enough, Xi Ying had an incredulous expression on his face after hearing his shadow guard's words. His eyes were sharp and his face was full of disbelief as he whispered
"All of you must have gone crazy to let her go there."
As soon as finished his words, he strode towards the said room in long strides.
On the other hand, inside the room, Gu Li was now conscious and tied to a chair. Li Rui was sitting in front of him. Gu Li and the other three shadow guards looked at her curiously.
They were waiting for her to speak when she said suddenly.
"You wish to know everything about that powder, right?"
Gu Li's eyes went cold but he nodded his head immediately. Li Rui nodded her head and then said softly
"I will tell you everything but for that, you will need to tell me who sent you here to kill me."
