Chapter 533 Revealing Princess Wenling\'s True Face?

Zhao Wang Lei had thought that Xi Ying was finally finished and he was about to sign Eunuch Wang to continue the banquet.

Everyone had thought the same.

Hence the convoy\'s ministers looked panicked. The man they needed to attack the second prince had not arrived yet so they didn\'t know what they would do if the banquet started and all the performances ended just like that.

Their plan was to attack during the banquet.

However, Xi Ying, who was unaware of their thoughts, saved them again.

"Your Majesty."

Xi Ying\'s cold voice sounded again and Zhao Wang Lei frowned deeply.

What did he want now?

"This man here…"

Xi Ying pointed to the man who was still held down by two Imperial Guards…the man whom Xi Ying introduced to everyone as the brother of the man who was hired by Li Na and Li Caihong to defile Li Rui.

"This Lord had called this man here because today this Lord wanted to reveal everyone\'s true face…at least of those people who had tried to harm this Lord\'s wife."

Xi Ying\'s cold eyes again moved around the hall as if he was trying to find the people who had tried to harm Li Rui.

Some people though knew that they were not the person Xi Ying was looking for, they still could feel the sweat forming on their foreheads.

It was a few moments later when Xi Ying\'s eyes finally stopped in a direction and on someone.

People followed his gaze and they gasped when they saw that someone was none other than Princess Wenling.

Princess Zhao Wenling who had just sat on her seat a few moments ago had a pale face when she saw Xi Ying looking at herself with cold eyes.

If it was some other day then she would have perhaps blushed shyly having the young prime minister\'s attention to herself.

However, at this moment, she knew that the consequences were different.

She was perhaps going to be in big trouble later if she didn\'t do anything now.

The nervous princess suddenly remembered what the old nanny had told her outside the banquet hall.

"Her Majesty, the great Empress also knew about the truth, My Princess."

Her mother knew that four years ago it was Li Na and Li Caihong who had drugged Li Rui and …and she had drugged Xi Ying.

It was just the most unfortunate coincidence for her that they met each other inside that room. Two people drugged with aphrodisiacs …what could have happened …the princess herself could think enough about this.

Li Rui was not really at fault four years ago.

However, her mother let her think the opposite and made her hatred towards Li Rui more intense…so intense that she decided to kill Li Rui, the same girl who had saved her life once.

Princess Wenling didn\'t even know, for a moment, what exactly she was thinking about.

Her mind was messed up.

She still didn\'t like Li Rui, she was very envious of her but at the same time, she could find herself standing on the wrong path.

All these complex emotions were starting to make her feel dizzy…until her eyes suddenly fell on her mother.

It was her mother who was the reason behind all this and she couldn\'t even understand why she did all this.

Confused, Princess Wenling came out of her trance when she heard Xi Ying\'s cold voice again.

He was not looking at her now, instead, his eyes were on her father, the Emperor, Zhao Wang Lei.

"Your Majesty, this man was hired to take my wife\'s life just a few months ago…when this Lord was not present here in the Imperial City and went to the border to solve the border problems. The man was told that it was this Lord\'s wife who had killed his brother and hence he wanted to avenge his brother\'s death. Your Majesty, now this Lord wishes to question the whole Imperial Clan, if this Lord\'s family is not even safe here in the Imperial City in this Lord\'s absence then how can they expect me to leave the Imperial City in the future when some problem arises and the Empire would need my presence somewhere else."

"How can someone really expect this Lord to leave this Lord\'s family here in danger alone?"

Zhao Wang Leo\'s eyes sharpened. He was understanding where Xi Ying was trying to go and he was not satisfied with that at all.

This matter should not be discussed here today in the Imperial City.

Though his daughter was a little stupid, he still needed her to harm Li Rui. If Xi Ying revealed everything about the stupid princess in front of everyone, then he would have no other choice than to punish her according to Xi Ying\'s wish.

Just when Zhao Wang Lei wanted to say something to stop the discussion on this matter then and there, Minister Xin suddenly stood up from his seat and greeted Zhao Wang Lei.

"Greeting, Your Majesty."

Zhao Wang Lei\'s fists were clenched and he was feeling very annoyed because of being interrupted. However, he had to put on an emotionless face and nod his head calmly at the greeting.

Xin Clan was no less noble than Xi or Li Clan. It could be sensed from their clan\'s name also. The name Xin …it was the same name the Empire had.

The whole Empire was named on the name of their clan because it was the Xin clan\'s ancestors who had found a small place in Empire Xin and then made it huge slowly and slowly.

A few years later, they had given it to the Clan Zhao who did everything to make the Empire Xin powerful and prosperous.

However, no one changed the name of the Empire.

The Xin clan stayed in one of the higher-ranking noble families in the whole Empire.

Due to the past the Clan had, Zhao Wang Lei couldn\'t disrespect Minister Xin in front of everyone.

He smiled bitterly inside his heart.

Sometimes he could feel that everyone was powerful inside this Empire except him…the Emperor himself.
