Chapter 738: The Owner Of The Letter Is...It was behind a very popular restaurant in the Imperial City where Xi Ying was asked to wait at night to meet the owner of the letter.          

    

And at this moment, he was standing at the same place.      

His deep black eyes were cold and very vigilant. Any movement in any direction could catch his eyes.      

A step away from him, Li Rui was sitting on a very comfy chair that Xi Ying had asked An Ju to carry from the restaurant. Even though the restaurant was closed at night, An Ju didn't find any difficulty in obeying her master.      

Not only this, she also arranged for a blanket to cover Li Rui. The night's wind was cold and hence Xi Ying was very satisfied with her move.      

"You should have stayed in Li Manor."    

Xi Ying spoke with distress-filled eyes when he caught his wife yawning. Embarrassed Li Rui lowered her head.      

It was she who had assured him that she was not feeling sleepy at all and now she was yawning. If only this was something in her control.      

Raising her head, she tried to assure Xi Ying    

"It's alright. I will sleep till late in the morning."      

Before Xi Ying could reply that this would be better, his expression changed and Li Rui couldn't help but straighten her back. As she had expected, Xi Ying spoke    

"He is here."    

And after finishing his words, he turned around. His body covered Li Rui and as she was sitting in an almost darkened corner, it was not easy to see her.      

Xi Ying also whispered to his shadow guards that they should stay alert all the time. It could be a trap as well.      

When this thought had come to his mind he had not wanted to bring Rui with him but by that time, he had already promised her that she would go with him.      

So now, he could only ensure that no one should be able to harm even a single strand of her hair.      

When the person was finally visible to him, Xi Ying's forehead was suddenly knitted.      

Because of the way the person walked towards him, he suddenly felt that …it was not a man.      

Even the shadow guards who were hiding in dark were confused when they saw the figure. Although it was covered with a black cloth completely and even the face could be seen, the martial artists like them were able to identify the gender at a glance.      

It was another thing that they were not able to recognize An Ju because the latter was able to copy a man's style of walking as well.      

Xi Ying stood calmly and the figure finally approached him.      

"Prime Minister Xi"    

When he heard the voice, he was sure that it was a woman but who could it be! Only a moment had passed after the question flashed in Xi Ying's mind when a guess started to form instantly.      

His eyes narrowed and he said coldly.

"If you want this Lord to stay and hear you then first uncover your face. This Lord wouldn't talk to anyone who doesn't have the courage to show even his face to this Lord."    

Xi Ying surely noticed the panic flickering in the woman's eyes but a moment later, he saw the defeat also.          

    

She would uncover her face and she did though a little slowly as if she was still contemplating if she should do it or not.      

When her face was finally uncovered, Xi Ying didn't feel much surprised and said very calmly.    

"Greetings to Princess Consort Yun. So the letter was sent by Princess Consort."      

Yun Weilan's face was pale.      

Xi Ying could tell very clearly just much courage she had to gather for doing what she was doing right now. Sending the letter, informing him about her husband's plan and now coming here to meet him.      

However, why was she helping him? That was something he needed to investigate deeply. What if this was just a trap and Zhao Zhuang Chen was trying to distract him from reality?    

"Yes, Prime Minister Xi"    

Yun Weilan tried to say in a calm voice and she was successful in her attempt. Regardless of how pale her face was, her voice and eyes were calm now.      

Since she had already decided to go against him, she should not fear, The fear would make her stumble across her steps.      

"This one knows more than what was written in the letter. However, this one wants Prime Minister Xi to promise a few things if Prime Minister Xi wishes to know more."    

Xi Ying raised his eyebrows and smiled slightly.      

A moment later, he nodded his head and said calmly      

"Go ahead."    

He could refuse if the conditions were outrageous. Anyway since he knew that Zhao Zhuang Chen was planning something, he could find it out using his own shadow guard. He had been just curious about this disloyal person on Zhao Zhuang Chen's side.      

One should have information about his enemy's weak points as well.      

"After Second Prince will ascend the throne, no harm will be done to this one's son."      

Xi Ying frowned suddenly and Yun Weilan's heart sank immediately.      

Her face seemed to go paler. She clenched her fists as she continued to say in a slightly heavy voice.      

"Prime Minister Xi, this one knows that keeping a prince, who is the son of the elder brother fighting for the same throne, alive is dangerous in others' eyes. However, this one can assure that Bo Jin would never try to even think of the throne. My son…he is very young. He is very innocent. This one had raised him that way keeping him away from all the dirt of the Imperial Palace. He would never be greedy for the throne. A corner of the Imperial Palace would be enough for this one and my son. We will just stay there and never show our faces to Second Prince."    

Yun Weilan said a lot. Her eyes were also starting to fill with tears.      

Her son was the only reason behind her doing all this.      

She would never support Zhao Zhuang Chen. That was what she had decided after she had returned from the latter's chambers that day.      

Yun Weilan was no longer a fool.

She could not believe Zhao Zhuang Chen at all when the latter cried in front of her and claimed her and her son to be his only support.      

She just knew that even if Zhao Zhuang Chen tried to do something, he would only fail because he was too stupid to succeed in any of his plans.          

    

He didn't get any success until today.      

However, she was also sure that if she let Zhao Zhuang Chen do whatever he wanted to do, then not only he will face doom but as her wife and son, she and Bo Jin would also face the same.      

So she had to find some way out of the situation.      

She lied to Zhao Zhuang Chen when she said that her father had agreed. In fact, she never told her greedy father about all this.      

Today morning, Zhao Zhuang Chen had given her the details of his plan. Then she sent her servant with that letter to Xi Ying.      

Yun Weilan left the Imperial Palace with the permission of her husband who wanted her to go to Yun Manor and show his plan to her father.      

Hence, she found a way to meet Xi Ying and talk about everything.      

Yun Weilan was worried when Xi Ying still didn't say anything. So she continued      

"Prime Minister Xi, this one would even leave this Imperial City with her son if that satisfies you and Second Prince. What this one wants are just her son's safety and happiness!"    

She could live with Zhao Bo Jin in a remote village with less luxury as long as she could see her son's face every day.      

"No one will harm Young Prince."    

Xi Ying finally interrupted Yun Weilan. His words were what Yun Weilan wanted to hear, however, she couldn't relax fully seeing the deep frown on Xi Ying's face which unbeknownst to her was completely for some other reason..    

Xi Ying was thinking as to who told Yun Weilan that they would kill Zhao Bo Jin! He would never do that and he believed that even Zhao Zhang Wei would never do that or would he?    

Xi Ying's frown got deeper and Yun Weilan was filled with more panic.      

She almost screamed when she heard another voice beside Xi Ying's. However, she covered her mouth with her hand.    

"Princess Consort can relax. Our morals would never allow us to kill a child."    

The soft and low voice seemed to bring a thousand assurances with it and the words soothe Yun Weilan's heart.      

It was only then Yun Weilan saw a woman stepping forward from Xi Ying's behind. She had not been able to notice her at all.      

"Li Rui"    

The cold wind carried away the words.      

However, Yun Weilan would remember them and the person who said them for her whole life.      

Because for her, the person had been the reason for all the happiness she would have in her life ahead.
