His Rui

Who had thought that Lord Xi carried such a dangerous whip like this on his waist?

"One word about Rui and you will regret to the death that you even opened your mouth."

Xi Ying said as he rotated the whip in his hand coldly making everyone step away from him in fear that they would get hurt.

Li Caihong cowered in fear seeing the cold eyes focused on herself. Her gaze moved between the whip in Xi Ying\'s hands and his eyes. She gulped and opened her mouth several times to say something but couldn\'t let out a single word.

Li Rong\'s eyes were wide and she instantly covered her daughter fearing that she would say something stupid again and Xi Ying will use the whip and hurt Li Caihong.

"Prime Minister Xi, forgive my daughter. She doesn\'t think before opening her mouth. This one will teach her."

She begged as she stood in front of Xi Ying. When Xi Ying didn\'t retract the whip in his hands she looked at General Li with tearful eyes as if begging him to calm down Xi Ying.

However, General Li was also looking at Li Caihong with a frown clearly showing that he didn\'t like whatever Li Caihong said about Li Rui.

In the end, Li Rong looked at Yi Jie but Yi Jie looked away and pretended as if she didn\'t see her eye full of pleading.

"Prime Minister Xi"

Finally, the Emperor\'s voice came who was watching everything silently and indifferently until now.

"Prime Minister Xi, you shouldn\'t mind the words of a lady. In Zhen\'s eyes, Minister Xi is much mature and sensible than that."

Li Rong was relieved to see that the Emperor interfered; however, Xi Ying was still looking in Li Caihong\'s direction coldly as he said

"Your Majesty, for his wife\'s matters, this Lord abandons any sense of maturity and sensibility. Going against Rui is going against this Lord and this Lord never let those alive peacefully who goes against him."

While saying the last sentence, Xi Ying finally moved his eyes to look into Zhao Wang Lei. Zhao Wang Lei\'s eyes flickered and he looked confused for a moment.

But a soft voice diverted his attention and he looked away from Xi Ying.

"Your Majesty, this one apologizes for interrupting but this one is worried about her daughter."

Xi Ying observed the Emperor\'s face as Second Madam Li.

His eyes were filled with disgust which he hid successfully but he noticed General Li\'s cold face and stiff body at that moment and couldn\'t help but pity the poor General.

But he also knew that he can\'t interfere in these matters so he pretended as if he saw nothing and said

"Who said that Rui is inside this room?"

Xi Ying said lazily and everyone looked at him again.

Li Rong\'s heart thumped for a moment. She has not seen her eldest daughter for a long time and the room they were standing in front of was also her daughter\'s room.

She smiled tightly and looked at Xi Ying while saying

"Lord Xi, this is something that the Eunuch told us."

"Oh…"

Xi Ying glanced at First Madam Li faintly and then glanced at the young Eunuch who had been standing quietly with lowered head.

Hearing someone mentioning him, the young Eunuch raised his head but lowered it again when he saw Xi Ying\'s cold eyes on himself. Until now, he had understood that the woman named Li Rui was Lord Xi\'s wife and the whole Xin what kind of a person Lord Xi was so the young Eunuch immediately stuttered out.

"My Lord, I have never mentioned any Young Lady\'s name. I was just informed that a lady of Li family is inside the room …doing something unmentionable and unforgivable when the banquet was going on in the banquet hall."

Li Rong\'s eyes widened and she looked at Li Caihong instantly.

Li Caihong was sure that the person inside the room was not her sister so when she felt her mother\'s gaze on herself, she said hurriedly

"Caihong assures Mother that the Elder sister is not inside the room. Mother, Caihong is not lying to you."

First Madam Li calmed down a little after her daughter\'s assurance but she still looked worried and asked Li Caihong.

"Then where is your sister?"

This was something that even Li Caihong didn\'t know.

Fortunately, at this moment the Emperor\'s order saved Li Caihong from her mother\'s questioning eyes.

"Break the door."

Everyone heard the Emperor\'s cold voice and Lianxin hall went silent.

It was visible to everyone that the Emperor was very angry and it was reasonable to be angry.

Although it was shameful to break the door of a lady, it was also not allowed to rest inside your room while the banquet is still going on without the Emperor\'s permission.

If a lady from Li family had really done something unmentionable then it was disrespect towards the Imperial family who had organized such a large banquet for all the noble families.

So no one stepped forward and stopped whatever was going on.

Eunuch Wang and the young Eunuch stepped forward and tried to push the closed-door inside.

General Li\'s face was grim. To him, it didn\'t matter which lady of Li Clan was inside the room. In the end, she will belong to Li Clan.

However, it would surely lessen his burden if the person inside the room didn\'t turn to be Li Rui. Because if the woman inside the room is really Li Rui, then he would lose his trust in Xi Ying with his daughter.

A few moments later, the door of the room opened and everyone raised their heads to look inside the room.

Their gazes bed subconsciously went to the bed placed in the middle of the room.

Whispers sounded in the Lianxin hall when people saw two figures lying on the bed. However, since the figures were covered with a blanket, no one could recognize their faces.

So it was still a mystery which young lady of Li Clan was inside the room.

"Drag them out. They don\'t have any respect for His majesty and Imperial Clan."

Qin Wenya shouted when she saw the scene inside the room.

Eunuch Wang and the young Eunuch stepped inside the room without any hesitation.

A moment later, everyone was left shocked when they saw the person being dragged outside by Eunuch Wang and the young Eunuch.

"Your Majesty, the Young Lady inside the room is not in a situation where we can drag her out in front of everyone."

As everyone looked at the person thrown by Eunuch Wang on the ground and heard Eunuch Wang\'s words, they could not help but cover their mouth and shake their heads with incredulous expressions on their faces.

This was surely something new in the history of whole Xin.
