His Rui

Chapter 504 Qin Wenya's Plans



Chapter 504 Qin Wenya’s Plans

Yi Jie had a very cold face as she stepped forward and stood in front of Xi Ying. All this while, she didn’t even glance at her husband, making General Li more panicked. 

”Prime Minister Xi, can you please tell me what they did now?”

There was a long silence as Xi Ying and General Li, both of them, looked at Yi Jie silently. 

Both of them were trying to gauge just how much Yi Jie had heard. 

And General Li sighed in relief a moment later. Now he was sure that YI Jie didn’t hear anything that she should have not. 

Because he was very sure that if she had heard that then she would have surely asked first who and why anyone wanted to kill Li Rui and what attacks they were talking about!

Xi Ying was a little disappointed but didn’t show it. 

He focused on the question asked by Yi Jie and looked towards the entrance. The Emperor was about to enter the banquet hall soon. 

At the same time, Xi Ying didn’t want to make it easy for General Li and his wife so he still told everything in a very confusing way. 

”Second Madam Li also doesn’t know what is going on inside Li Manor?”

Yi Jie’s face was blank and she also looked confused for a moment. However, a moment later, guilt flashed across her eyes as she slowly started to understand what Xi Ying was trying to imply. 

If Li Na and Li Caihong really did something then it should have been her first who should have come to know about this. 

General Li who could see this felt very angry at Xi Ying and said coldly in warning

”Prime Minister Xi.”

Xi Ying, however, ignored General Li. 

Yi Jie had wanted to ask more but just at this moment, the guard announced the Emperor’s and Empress’ arrival, and hence she was pulled back to her seat by her husband. 

Xi Ying stepped back to stand beside his seat with a cold and indifferent face. 

Zhao Wang Lei entered the Imperial Court with all the grace and elegance an Emperor should carry. 

Everyone including Xi Ying stood to welcome him. 

People fell down on their knees except for Xi Ying and the royal family members. 

As Xi Ying and Zhao Zhang Wei took in this scene, they couldn’t help but smile in mockery. It was supposed to be someone else who deserved all this but Zhao Wang Lei snatched everything from that person using his disgusting schemes. 

Both of them suddenly looked towards each other. Though their heads were still bowed to welcome the Emperor, there was no respect in their eyes. 

Silently, Zhao Zhang Wei and Xi Ying greeted each other nodding their heads. 

After Xi Ying looked away, Zhao Zhang Wei turned his head to look towards the seat that was beside him.

He was finally able to see her after so many days. However, not even once, did Zhao Zhang Wei see Yi Huiqing looking towards himself. 

As if he never existed for her. 

His eyes however moved away from her only when he felt afraid that he might annoy her from his continuous gaze. 

A bitter smile graced Zhao Zhang Wei’s lips as he remembered how in the past Yi Huiqing used to yearn for the same thing but now she hated it to her guts. 

She hated him to the guts and he deserved it.

The banquet started as soon as Zhao Wang Lei sat down on the throne. 

First of all, he introduced all the convoy members to all the noble family members himself. 

There were a total of three ministers from the neighboring Empire who were a part of this convoy. The rest of the people were either a few guards they had brought with them or a few servants. 

It was not allowed to bring their own servants and guards but Zhao Wang Lie made an exception for the convoy’s ministers. 

The ministers of the convoy stood up from their seats and greeted the noble family members politely. 

Sitting in his seat, Zhao Zhuang Chen looked at each and every member with interest. 

Seeing their respectful behavior, who would be able to believe that they were planning to kill an Imperial Prince today. 

Thinking this, Zhao Zhuang Chen looked towards Zhao Zhang Wei with a smirk on his lips. Just a few days ago, he had felt very envious of Zhao Zhang Wei because he had his father on his side who was also the Emperor. 

He was envious of him for having such a mother who could enrapture the Emperor’s heart in such a way that even after so many years of her death, Zhao Wang Lei still wanted to make Zhao Zhang Wei the successor of his throne. 

However, today he just pitied him. 

Because even after having so many things in his favor, he would still not be able to sit on the throne. 

After the convoy took their seats, the performances in the banquet started. 

The food was served. 

Sitting beside Zhao Wang Lei, Qin Wenya suddenly looked towards the seats where Li family members were seated. 

Then she looked at the old Momo who was standing beside her seat. 

The old Momo immediately understood what her mistress was trying to convey. No one noticed the old Momo nodding her head and then living from there. 

A few moments later, the old Momo came back and when Qin Wenya looked towards her again, she nodded her head silently. 

Qin Wenya’s eyes brightened instantly and she looked towards the palace maid who was walking towards the table placed in front of Yi Jie with a tray of food in her hands. 

Her fists clenched in excitement as she saw General Li serving the food on Yi Jie’s plate and then she saw Yi Jie putting the food in her mouth with the help of a fork. 

Qin Wenya would have screamed in happiness if she didn’t have a little bit of consciousness of still being in the banquet hall. 

Zhao Wang Lei betrayed her for this woman, right!

Now she would see what he would do when she would be dead.
