Chapter 690 A Talk With General Li
"How did he find out?"
She had made sure that everything was planned in a way that no one will find out anything.
Zhao Zhuang Chen's jaw clenched in anger. Though he didn't know what she was talking about, he still said
"What have you thought of him? His hands are longer than even Father Emperor? Why do you think I am trying to bring him on our side but you…"
Zhao Zhuang Chen's eyes were filled with frustration as he looked at the still shocked Qin Wenya.
"You mes…"
He couldn't complete his words because someone was knocking heavily on the door.
"Your Highness, please step outside. Your Majesty had ordered this servant to bring Your Highness."
It was Eunuch Wang who was knocking on the door and asking Zhao Zhuang Chen to come out.
Zhao Zhuang Chen frowned but nonetheless walked towards the door. However, he had taken just a step when Qin Wenya suddenly held his sleeve and asked him
"That Yi Jie…General Li's wife …is she still alive?"
Zhao Zhuang Chen frowned in confusion until in his memory, Xi Ying's words from yesterday flashed.
He looked at his mother with sudden realization flickering in his eyes.
"Don't say that it was you who had planned this…"
However, Qin Wenya didn't answer his question. She merely looked at him coldly and asked
"Just answer whether she is dead or not…"
If she was dead then everything would be worth it.
Qin Wenya thought inside her heart. However, her satisfaction was only a moment lasting when Zhao Zhuang Chen said
"She is alive."
Zhao Zhuang Chen threw away her hand again as he spoke furiously.
"You achieved nothing but troubles for yourself as well as me. I request you not to use your brain and invite more troubles for me."
Finishing his words, Zhao Zhhuang Chen finally walked to the doors and opened them.
His face was not good as he followed Eunuch Wang while Qin Wenya was trembling standing at the same spot.
Her eyes were filled with angry tears as she looked down at the letter that had fallen on the ground.
When she saw that someone was about to step inside the room, she immediately kneeled down and picked it up from the ground to hide it inside her sleeve.
However, the anger never left her eyes.

On the other hand, Zhao Zhuang Chen reached the study room. Eunuch Wang requested him to go inside and he walked inside the study room.
He walked to the center and kneeled down on the ground.
Zhao Wang Lei immediately threw a teacup towards him that hit him on his forehead, The red blood trickled down and Zhao Zhuang Chen didn't even hiss.
His eyes were filled with a different kind of calmness, defiance, and anger.
"You fool…why did you go to see your mother? Have not we ordered that no one will see her? Do our words hold no meaning to you, Zhuang Chen?"
Zhao Wang Lei's anger was very audible in his deep and cold voice.
"The Subject Son apologizes. But This Subject Son was remembering Empress Mother a lot and wanted to see her. Only this way came to this son's mind."
However, Zhao Wang Lei was looking at Zhao Zhuang Chen's lowered head with suspicion-filled eyes. After a few moments of mysterious silence, he suddenly asked
"Is it really because of what you are saying or is it because of something Prime Minister Xi told you when he visited Delan Palace?"
Zhao Zhuang Chen stiffened. He couldn't let his father know what Xi Ying told him. He gulped nervously trying to stay calm as he answered
"Father Emperor, Prime Minister Xi had just come to advise this subject son that even though the people are furious because of what Empress Mother did, this subject son should still not leave the hope."
Zhao Wang Lei's eyes were still narrowed and it was after a long time that he hummed and Zhao Zhhuang Chen sighed in relief.
However, a bitter and mocking smile made its way to his lips when he heard his dear father saying.
"It must be. After all, Prime Minister Xi is aware of Zhen's intentions of making you the next Emperor but you are a fool…
"Are you a child to go to your Mother just because you remembered her? If you are so controlled by your emotions then how will you even handle the throne?"
"This subject son apologizes."
Zhao Zhuang Chen calmly apologized again. He had a lot to say but he suppressed all of it inside his heart.
However, when Zhao Wang Lei said his next words.
"Hear whatever Prime Minister Xi tells you with an open brain and follow him. Maybe you will learn something."
Zhao Wang Lei said in a very cold and reprimanding voice.
"This subject son will obey Father Emperor."
For the first time, he had stepped inside the Imperial study room, Zhao Zhuang Chen answered sincerely.
Zhao Wang Lei hmphed and waves his hand while saying.
"No go and kneel outside the Imperial Chambers. At least people would not say that Zhen is differentiating between his sons."
"Leave!"
Zhao Zhuang Chen stood up and bowed once again before he left the Imperial study room to kneel outside the Imperial chambers.

On the other hand, Xi Ying reached Xi Manor and immediately went to Plum Courtyard. He was thinking of seeing Li Rui once before he would leave for Li Manor as he had promised General Li.
However, when he stepped inside the Plum courtyard and was on his way to their room, he found General Li sitting inside the living room with his wife.
Li Rui looked towards him when she saw him while General Li noticing her gaze going behind him turned to look at him.
Xi Ying could already see the impatience flickering in the middle-aged General's eyes. And sure enough, he stood up and walked towards him.
"Prime Minister Xi, Let's go to the study room and discuss what we wanted to discuss."
Xi Ying sighed silently.
He didn't know why but he was trying to avoid this matter. However, he knew that telling General Li was inevitable that's why he had come to gather some strength and patience from his wife.
However, when had he thought that General Li would be waiting for him at the same place.
With another helpless sigh, he could only walk to his study room with General Li.
