Chapter 752: Li Rui Is Feeling Unwell



Chapter 752: Li Rui Is Feeling Unwell

The days were passing more quickly than Zhao Zhuang Chen had expected.          

Perhaps there was a sudden change of plan, Zhao Zhuang Chen started to feel a little restless with every passing day.      

Yun Weilan told him that everything was alright and the secret tunnel was still open. Her father had himself gone and checked it.      

Zhao Zhuang Chen had never thought that the meek Yun Weilan who never raised her voice when he had hit her like an animal would ever lie to him.      

In his eyes, the woman simply didn\'t have that much courage.      

And hence, he believed Yun Weilan.      

His worry also lessened to some extent.      

However, soon he faced another problem. Zhao Zhuang Chen couldn\'t train his people as he wanted.     

He could only gather them in his study room secretly making sure that he would not be caught or sometimes he would gather them inside his chambers at night to make them aware of what all they have to do.      

He tried to make himself believe that the plan was as simple as it looked.      

He needed to enter Zhao Wang Lei\'s chambers with his people to kill him and then leave from the same secret tunnel without letting anyone know.      

By the time anyone would get to know that Zhao Wang Lei was dead, he would already be inside his chambers and hence no one would be able to doubt him.      

However, there were many things he was unaware of and hence regardless of how much Zhao Zhuang Chen tried to stay guarded and careful, there was nothing he could do to make his plan successful.      

At least, that was what Xi Ying thought.     

The circumstances in Xi Manor were rather different from Delan Palace.      

General Li, Yi Junjie, Xi Ying, Li Rui, and Gu Li gathered every evening and discussed the plan. They had wanted to make sure that no one\'s life was endangered anywhere.     

Today after they have finished the discussion, there was suddenly a knock on the door. When Xi Ying allowed the person outside to come in, it was An Si who entered.      

The shadow guard looked at Gu Li and said      

"Mister Gu, your presence is needed in Plum Courtyard."     

Gu Li sighed and nodded his head as he left the study room. Li Rui smiled and Xi Ying merely shook his head.     

There was another argument between the old physician and the old master.      

They knew that Gu Li\'s presence must be needed to stop the old master who knew martial arts from harming the old physician.      

It was not something to be surprised by that the old master was more powerful than Xi Ying\'s shadow guards and hence the latter could not handle him.      

They could only call Gu Li to handle the old master whenever such situations aroused.      

An Si also left and Yi Junjie finally asked Li Rui the question that had been bothering him for the past few days.      

"Rui, who is he?"         

General Li\'s face went emotionless as he understood who was Yi Junjie asking about. He looked at his daughter who answered Yi Junjie calmly.      

"Elder Brother, Senior Brother\'s name is Gu Li. He is the leader of Youxio. I\'ve known him for a long time, Years ago, Senior Brother saved my life when I had gone to a village to learn medicine from Master Wong."     

Yi Junjie\'s eyes first flickered from shock when he heard the word \'Youxio\' and later he was merely looking at Rui with a blank face.      

She told him so much in a few words, however, he couldn\'t digest everything.      

"You didn\'t tell me anything, Rui."     

She never told him that someone had tried to attack her when she had gone out of Li Manor, Yi Junjie suddenly had a deep frown on his forehead.      

At Yi Junjie\'s words, General Li who had been standing silently suddenly felt relieved.      

He would have felt more hurt if even Yi Junjie knew about this. It seemed that she didn\'t tell anyone about that incident.      

In response to Yi Junjie\'s question, Li Rui smiled in guilt and said      

"Rui didn\'t want Elder Brother to worry."     

Yi Junjie had wanted to say more but suddenly his eyes fell on Xi Ying who was looking at him with a not-so-good face      

He sighed as he shut his mouth.      

He knew very well that Xi Ying didn\'t like that he interacted with Li Rui.      

Since the day Li Rui had told him that she was happy in Xi Manor, Yi Junjie had promised himself that unless he would feel that she was being wronged in Xi Manor, he would try very less to interfere in her life.      

The reason behind such a promise was that he felt that Xi Ying was aware of his feelings for Li Rui. He feared that the young prime minister would make Li Rui suffer because of that and Yi Junjie never wanted that.      

However, seeing Xi Ying\'s behavior toward Li Rui, as much as Yi Junjie felt bitter, he also felt relieved. Still, he was standing by his promise. It was the same promise today that made him shut his mouth and no longer ask any questions to Li Rui.      

He didn\'t ask anything to Li Rui but for Xi Ying, he still had a question.      

"Prime Minister Xi, is it wise to include people from Youxio in such a plan?"      

Youxio was, after all, a criminal organization. Could their intention be trusted?      

  Xi Ying merely nodded his head and said      

"They are not involved in the plan directly. Gu Li and his people would stay in Xi Manor and make sure that no harm shall come to Rui and Xi Ling as well as Li and Yi Manor in our absence."     

Xi Ying paused for a moment before he continued      

"This Lord wants him to evacuate everyone immediately and take them to a safe place …in case something that shouldn\'t happen happens."     

Li Rui looked at Xi Ying with a serious expression on her face when she heard his words.      

He had never told her this.          

The thought that something wrong could go during the plan suddenly made her scared. Perhaps it was her disturbed emotion that she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her stomach.      

Startled, she couldn\'t help but place her hand on her stomach.      

Not only Xi Ying but everyone inside the room noticed her movement.      

"Rui.."     

Xi Ying almost shouted when he saw her pale face while General Li also moved to other side, closer to his daughter, unaware of what he should do. Yi Junjie was feeling the same.      

His eyes were filled with distress and worry, however, he was unable to do or say anything.      

The pain had already gone away.      

Li Rui licked her dry lips and nodded her head as she tried to assure him.      

"I am alright now. It was sudden pain."     

However, these words didn\'t assure Xi Ying. Withoyt thinking anything, he picked her up in his arms and took her to the room that was attached with the study room.      

When he exited the study room, he ordered An Si to send the old physician immediately.      

.     

.     

.     

The news of Li Rui not feeling well reached Plum Courtyard when An Si flew there and told the old physician to come with him.      

The old physician and the old master were still fighting.      

Gu Li was holding his master while trying to stop him from attacking the Imperial Physician.      

The Imperial Physician was feeling scared before Gu Li come because he was indeed scared that the old master would harm him using his martial arts.      

However, after seeing that Gu Li was holding him, he was suddenly confident and spoke whatever came to his mind.      

Xi Ling was standing in between and looking at the two old men with a deep frown on his forehead.      

In between, he would tsk like an adult and say that the two old men were really like children.      

The image was too funny for Li Hua and Liu Lan who were standing in the corner and watching all this.      

As she watched Xi Ling\'s actions, Li Hua was telling Liu Lan how much Xi Ling matched with their mistress who used to be the same during her childhood.      

As soon as An Si told the old physician that Li Rui was not feeling well and he needed to accompany him to Xi Ying\'s courtyard, the inner hall of Plum Courtyard went silent.      

"What happened to Mother?"         

"Rui, I will immediately go there."     

"My Lady…"     

So many voices echoed at the same time that An Si couldn\'t help but frown.      

Xi Ling with his short legs had already run outside to go to his father\'s courtyard. Gu Li followed him and picked him in his arms as he flew to the courtyard. The old master did the same.      

Li Hua and Liu Lan also ran towards the same destination.     

An Si watched all this with a stupid look on his face. The shadow guard suddenly doubted his speed.      

"Why the hell are you standing stupidly?\'     

It was the old physician who poked An Si and shouted     

"Quickly take me there. If something wrong happened because of the delay this old man would boil you alive."     

An Si also realized his mistake and silently picked the old man and flew to the courtyard where Li Rui was.      

Suddenly there was a huge crowd outside the room.      

People came one by one and asked each other what happened and hence it suddenly became noisy.      

The small bun who was feeling impatient because of not being allowed to go inside, looked at the people making noise and shouted      

"Shut up you all!"     

His voice surprisingly made everyone silent.      

It was something that Xi Ling himself didn\'t feel but when he spoke next, his expression was the same as that of Xi Ying when the latter threatened someone.      

"Mother might be resting inside. If someone made noise, then Xi Ling would …"     

However, his aura suddenly deflated when he tried to think of something he could threaten them with. Unfortunately, he didn\'t have anything with which he could scare them.      

Xi Ling frowned deeply when he realized this and in his irritation he simply said      

"Xi Ling would not talk to anyone except mother if someone made noise."     

No one dared to talk after seeing Xi Ling\'s serious face.      

Xi Ling was very satisfied with his threat now and anxiously waited for someone to come out and tell him that his mother was alright.
