In the past few months, Xi Ying knew that Rui was a very light sleeper. Even a little bit of noise could easily make her awake.

If it was any other person then Xi Ying would have appreciated this quality because this quality was only a part of those people who remained always on guard. They could sense danger around themselves very easily.

However, this Li Rui being a light sleeper made him feel distressed also.

Because it was very rare that she would sleep for long and deep.

Xi Ying also ordered Liu Lan to come and search for him if someone from Li Manor comes to meet her. He couldn\'t believe that the First Madam of Li Manor will really sit silent after she will come to know that Li Chen was leaving for the borders as an ordinary soldier.

After making sure that Li Rui will not be disturbed in his absence, Xi Ying left the Plum Courtyard.

The six shadow guards were already waiting inside the study room for Xi Ying.

As soon as he entered, all of them kneeled down on the ground.

The cold prime mister stepped inside and sat on the chair that was placed on the other side of the table.

Picking a book from the study table, he asked his shadow guards to rise from the ground.

"Any news from First Household of Li Manor?"

It was An Shing who stepped forward first and answered Xi Ying\'s question.

"Answering the master\'s question, there is really something that this servant wants to inform Master about First Household of Li Manor."

Xi Ying turned the page of the book in his hands and said coldly

"Continue."

Without wasting a moment, the shadow guard continued

"My Lord, the young Master from Lu family, Lu Jianye who had been recently passed the Imperial examination had expressed his wish to marry Second Lady Li in front of Minister Li."

Xi Ying looked up and his eyes narrowed a little as he tried to remember this Lu Jianye. There was only a little bit of impression of this man inside his mind.

However, this little bit of impression helped him enough to make his eyes cold.

"What did Minister Li say?"

"My Lord, Minister Li has neither rejected this proposal nor did he accept it until now."

With his index finger continuously tapping against the surface of the table, Xi Ying asked again

"This proposal …was it put forward in disguise of the greed of power or was it sincere?"

An Shing went silent for a few moments.

A moment later, he lowered his head a little and responded

"My Lord, This servant will find it out soon."

Xi Ying nodded his head and ordered An Shing to find it out as soon as possible.

"If Minister Li accepts this proposal, this Lord should be informed immediately."

An Shing bowed his head indicating that he had accepted the order.

After that, he was dismissed by Xi Ying.

After An Shing stepped back to his spot, Xi Ying ordered An Ping to bring the physician to the study room.

An Ping followed his master\'s order and soon the old physician who had told Xi Ying about Li Rui\'s pregnancy stepped inside the study room with An Ping.

The old physician looked very annoyed with the way An Ping held him and dragged him forward.

His eyes soon looked around where he was and when they fell on Xi Ying, he was very angry.

With a heard full of rage and a red face, the old physician pointed his finger at Xi Ying and said out loudly and rudely

"It\'s you who is the master, right? Why have you kept me here forcefully? Let me leave from here. You can\'t just abduct anyone like this. Let me tell you, don\'t try to threaten me with my family because I have no family to begin with."

The old physician was very satisfied after his outburst.

Since the day he had taken that woman\'s pulse, he had not been allowed to go out of Xi Manor.

The old physician had not expected that on the way of going to his house he would be abducted by a man in black clothes suddenly. However, he being very generous didn\'t scold anyone and took that unconscious woman\'s pulse.

However, when had he thought that this man would then keep him in his manor and wouldn\'t allow him to leave!

Although he was given every comfort he couldn\'t get in his small hut by the servants of the manor, it was still very indignant to get abducted like this.

Xi Ying didn\'t look even a little bothered with the old physician\'s outburst. He, instead, calmly closed his book and then put it back on the table.

"Leave."

All the shadow guards understood and immediately left the study room.

After that, Xi Ying\'s cold black eyes finally focused on the old physician and he indifferently asked him

"That day…you have said that you told this Lord everything about a woman\'s pregnancy, didn\'t you?"

Xi Ying\'s voice was very cold and emotionless.

The anger inside the old physician\'s chest was suddenly replaced by the fear and he gulped audibly as he moved his eyes away from Xi Ying\'s black eyes no longer having any courage to look into them.

"Speak."

The sharp voice immediately made the old physician nod his head vigorously as he spoke

"Yes, I did."

A moment later, he looked at Xi Ying incredulously and said

"What is the need to scare me like this, Young Man? I am a man of my words. I will not refuse what I have said."

A cold smile appeared on Xi Ying\'s lips as he nodded his head in satisfaction.

"Good for you then."

After that, he stood up from his chair and walked towards the old physician.

Standing in front of the old physician, his one hand rested on his sword and the other went to hold the old physician\'s shoulder.

The old physician was very scared but he pretended very well not to look afraid.

"Then, why didn\'t you tell me that this Lord can\'t have intimacy with his wife because she is pregnant?"
