Chapter 693 General Li And Xi Ying's Thoughts Differ

When Li Rui came back, she was witnessing another surprise.

Seeing how her father who had his sword on Xi Ying's neck just a few moments ago, and now the same father was patting her husband's back while praising him wholeheartedly

"Prime Minister Xi, this General is feeling so delighted by your plan. This plan…this General Li will surely support you in everything related to this plan."

On seeing this secene, who would believe that the same father was saying something else a few moments ago.

'Prime Minister Xi, this General is disappointed.'

Isn't that what he had said? Li Rui remembered very well.

And now she saw how Xi Ying looked at her father's hand that was on his shoulder and how her father smiled sheepishly and took his hand back as if afraid to offend him because he never liked anyone touching him.

She couldn't help but feel a little funny. No doubt that she had felt a little uncomfortable and curious as to what kind of secret it was that made her father so scared. But now seeing this sight in front of her eyes, Li Rui thought it didn't matter even if she didn't know about it.

She smiled when Xi Ying turned to look at her as if he knew already that she had been standing there and said

"Rui, come. Why are you standing there?"

Li Rui walked inside the study room with the bowl of medicinal paste in her hands.

She walked to sit on the other side beside Xi Ying who dragged his chair nearer to his wife and hence distancing himself from General Li in this process.

General Li looked at this silently with a rather complicated smile on his lips.

As he watched his daughter applying the paste to the flesh of her husband's neck, he couldn't help but wonder how Xi Ying won her cold and indifferent heart.

But then he remembered how sincere Xi Ying had been throughout these past few months and he understood.

He knew his daughter. She wanted nothing but sincerity.

But seeing her standing against himself today while she protected Xi Ying, General Li's heart was slightly bitter. Even his smile was slightly bitter but he didn't say anything.

After Li Rui finished applying the paste, she asked

"What plan was Father and Ying talking about?"

General Li raised his head again to look at his daughter and said gently

"Rui doesn't need to worry about all these. Focus on your health."

The smile that was on Li Rui's lips suddenly thinned a little and Xi Ying who noticed this looked at General Li with a deep frown.

He turned to look at his wife again. His hand went to hold hers under the table and he said without any hesitation.

"I have thought of a way to punish Qin Wenya at the same time removing her completely from our path. This way, we can reduce Zhao Zhuang Chen's strength as well and have Qin Wenya completely removed as a threat to us."

Li Rui looked at her father all the while she heard her husband telling everything. She saw how he frowned. Perhaps because he didn't like that Xi Ying told her everything.

And sure enough, he said to Xi Ying

"Prime Minister Xi, there is no need to involve Li Rui in all this."

Xi Ying turned to look at the middle-aged General with a bored expression on his face and said calmly.

"It is this Lord's plan. This Lord will decide whoever he wishes to include or not."

General Li had a completely somber expression on his face. He looked at his daughter and then at Xi Ying again before saying

"Her life is already in enough danger. Don't put her in more danger by telling her each and everything."

Xi Ying scoffed at that.

"General Li, our opinions differ greatly. Rui is very capable and intelligent. She should know everything. And if you have any problem with this, then you can leave."

General Li sighed in exasperation. He looked at his daughter as if looking forward for her to say anything but then he remembered that she was not only his daughter anymore.

With another sigh, he stood up and walked out of the study room but not before saying

"We will talk about this later…when Prime Minister Xi will think upon it calmly."

Xi Ying shook his head looking at the leaving general's back. It was not he who was going to think upon this matter but it will be the middle-aged General.

Because Rui was going to enjoy equal status as him in Xi Manor!

Xi Ying smiled looking at his wife and kissed her hand lightly.

"Let's go and eat something otherwise our baby will say that we forget about him because of his sulking grandfather."

Li Rui smiled at this and shook her head as Xi Ying helped her in standing up.

Her heart was at peace. She liked how Xi Ying didn't hide anything from her.

She liked that she have someone who she could trust blindly …even more than her own father.

Late night, the Imperial Palace was lit with red lamps.

The Imperial Eunuch guarding the Empress' chambers kneeled down on the ground suddenly.

"This servant greets Your Majesty."

Zhao Wang Lie frowned hearing his loud voice and seeing this, Eunuch Wang immediately reprimanded the middle-aged Eunuch.

"Don't speak in a loud voice."

The Imperial Eunuch immediately apologized in a low voice.

It was only he and two Imperial Guards a little far away from the entrance who were guarding the door at this time.

They were also kneeling on the ground to pay respect to the Emperor.

Zhao Wang Lei looked at Eunuch Wang who nodded his head.

"This servant will keep an eye, Your Majesty."

Satisfied, Zhao Wang Lei finally walked inside the chambers to meet his dear wife. While Eunuch Wang had already started to teach the Imperial Eunuch and the two Imperial Guards that nothing about His Majesty visiting the Empress chambers should go out and fall in anyone else ears.
