His Rui

Chapter 594 The Speechless Yi Huiqing

As if General Li sensed his bitterness, he chuckled deeply and then suddenly looked at Xi Ying with a serious face.

”I really hate you for isolating my daughter in this Manor for four years but at the same time, I feel grateful that she was safe here in your manor.”

”At first, when you told me that it was Zhao Wang Lei who wanted to kill Li Rui, I never believed you. I tried but I just couldn’t. I couldn’t find any reason for Zhao Wang Lei to despise my daughter. But now that I think over it, it can only be him.” 

General Li tried to remember just how many capable people he hired to find out who was attacking his daughter again and again but he could never find anything.   

He spent half of his wealth in order to find this out but never got the result. In the end, he gave up when the attacks stopped.

Who had known that the attack would continue again after Li Rui would turn sixteen?

It was when she had been secretly returning from a nearby village, where she used to go to practice medicines, for two shichen…that day she was attacked again.

After that day, General Li didn’t dare to let Li Rui step out of Li Manor again. However, he was still worried. 

Though the attack didn’t happen again, he still tried to get his daughter married to Xi Ying when Zhao Wang Lei decreed a married between Zhao Zhang Wei and Yi Huiqing. 

Now that General Li thought about who could be strong enough to never be found out even by those capable people, Zhao Wang Lei really seemed to fit the criteria.

Xi Ying sighed before he said

”It is good that you finally believe this Lord, General Li. Now this Lord should leave.”

Xi Ying felt a little exhausted. Not physically but mentally.

  He just wanted to leave. However, General Li thought that Xi Ying didn’t believe him so he blocked his way and said firmly 

”Prime Minister Xi, believe this General. This General wishes to help you too. How can I let that man enjoy the throne when he is behind my daughter’s life! If to save her and my clan, it is important to dethrone him, then I will do so.”

Xi Ying looked at General Li’s face silently for a few moments. He had to say that this time, General Li looked really firm …at least more firm than in the past.   

Perhaps it was what made him say to him

”Then do accompany this Lord to the study room, General Li.”

General Li’s eyes flickered. It was only then he realized that Xi Ying was going to his study room before he stopped him …and it was perhaps to plan something.

He didn’t ask anything, merely nodded his head and silently accompanied Xi Ying to the study room.

It was late at night but Yi Huiqing couldn’t get even a wink of sleep.

As she stared at the ceiling of her chambers with sleepless eyes, an irritated sigh escaped through her lips.

Perhaps because she had slept throughout the whole day, she didn’t feel sleepy right now.

A few moments later, when Yi Huiqing could no longer bear it, she tried to get down from the bed. However, as soon as she tried to do so, a sharp pain went through her chest.

”Ah…”

Yi Huiqing inhaled sharply. Her hand went to her chest.

At the same time, an arm embraced her waist and she heard the harsh scolding.

”What are you trying to do? Do you like to feel pain?”

While the person said these words, he applied force and made her lie down on the bed carefully. Yi Huiqing was very familiar with the voice as well as the touch.

Perhaps it was because she was touched by Zhao Zhang Wei after so many days, her body was completely still and she didn’t dare to move even a bit as he lowered her down on the bed.

After her back touched the bed, she opened her eyes and sure enough found Zhao Zhang Wei standing in front of her.

But what was he doing here at this time?

Before even she could ask him this question, Zhao Zhang Wei showered her with many questions.

”What were you trying to do? Were you going to get down from the bed? Don’t you know that you have been restricted to leave the bed? Where is your maid?”

Zhao Zhang Wei’s face was cold as he looked around the room as if searching for Lin Daiyu.

”She is not here.”

He whispered coldly send was about to step out of the room. Seeing this, Yi Huiqing stopped him thinking that he was going to call Lin Daiyu. 

The girl was just sent by her to have some rest. She didn’t want Zhao Zhang Wei to disturb her rest. So she said immediately

”Don’t call her here. She had just gone to sleep.”

Zhao Zhang Wei turned around to look at his wangfei with an incredulous expression on his face. He wanted to say something but then his phoenix eyes brightened up suddenly.

Since she didn’t want her maid to come here then …

He smiled deeply and the next moment, Yi Huiqing saw him sitting on the chair that was placed beside her bed since she had woken up.

”Your Highness…”

She whispered in confusion as Zhao Zhang Wei settled himself on the chair comfortably.

”What?”

Zhao Zhang Wei asked innocently. Seeing his innocent and handsome face, Yi Huiqing really went speechless for a few moments before she found her voice.

As she inhaled deeply, she asked him as respectfully as she could. 

”Why are you sitting here, Your Highness?”

  At the question, Zhao Zhang Wei narrowed his eyes as he looked at her and said seriously

”Of Course, to look out for you. What if you tried to get down from the bed again? So I will sit here to ensure that you will not do such a stupid thing again.”

And Yi Huiqing again went speechless wondering what exactly was wrong with Zhao Zhang Wei.
