Chapter 732: Zhao Zhuang Chen Asks For Yun Weilan\'s Help

Xin was not in chaos as General Li had expected it to be in after he had seen the Qin\'s Emperor in the Imperial Palace.          

No news came from the Imperial Palace.      

So General Li thought everything was alright just as Xi Ying had said.     

On the other hand in the Imperial Palace, Zhao Zhuang Chen stepped inside his chambers.      

There was nothing but exhaustion on his face. He had just come from the Imperial study room where he had to convince his uncle or he should say the Emperor of Qin who was also his mother\'s brother that it was really his mother who was at fault.      

He had to accept that he had been witness to everything …at each step of the investigation. He had been there when they had dug out the skeletons and the garden was green everywhere before they had started digging.      

Not only this, Zhao Zhuang Chen was there when his father presented a few old maids from somewhere and the old maids claimed to work for his mother in the past.      

The maids also claimed that his mother had indeed poisoned Noble Consort Shu and after she was dead, she buried her in the garden of her chambers.      

Zhao Zhuang Chen walked to the chair and sat there.      

He filled the glass with wine and drank it in one go. He sat there for a long time with blank eyes.      

After a few moments, a maid came and asked him if needed something.      

Zhao Zhuang Chen was silent for a long time. Just when the maid was wondering what she should do, he spoke up.     

"Ask wangfei to come over."     

The maid immediately did so.      

Yun Weilan was soon in his chambers.      

Her eyes didn\'t have any emotion when she Zhao Zhuang Chen sitting on the chair.      

So it was true that his mother\'s death had affected him.      

Yun Weilan thought inside her heart as she remembered the servants talking about Zhao Zhuang Chen. She only thought Zhao Zhaung Chen had called her here to vent his anger and frustration on her.      

And she didn\'t have any choice except for being at the receiving end.      

With an emotionless and cold pair of eyes, Yun Weilan bowed her head and said      

"Greetings, Your Highness"     

Zhao Zhuang Chen looked toward her slowly. He was too lost in his thoughts that he never sensed her presence until he spoke up.      

He stood up from the chair and then slowly walked to her.      

Yun Weilan could see his legs and knew that he was now standing in front of her. She had expected some kind of insult or perhaps a slap.      

However, she was startled when she felt a pair of hands on her shoulders. The more surprising thing was that the grip was not tight but very gentle.      

Yun Weilan blinked when she heard Zhao Zhuang Chen\'s gentle voice         

"Weilan, raise your head and look at me."     

He had never talked to her like this.      

Not even when everything was normal between them…when she still respected him as her husband.      

In a daze, she raised her head and looked at him with blank eyes.      

Her mind was also blank.      

She flinched unconsciously when his hands touched her cheeks. It was reflex action…something that was out of her control.      

"I won\'t hit you."     

She heard him say and couldn\'t help but frown.      

He seemed to be weird. Very weird.      

Yun Weilan almost gasped when she saw tears flowing out of Zhao Zhuang Chen\'s eyes suddenly.      

"Weilan…"     

He was crying when he whispered her name.      

His forehead touched hers and she looked at him blankly as he spoke amidst tears      

"Empress Mother left, Weilan. She left Benwang alone in this horrible Palace alone. Now I have only you and Bo Jin. Where is Bo Jin…my child. I have not seen him for so many days."     

Zhao Zhuang Chen suddenly looked desperate to see his son.      

He looked towards the doors as if to shout for the maid but Yun Weilan stopped him before he could do so.      

"Xiao Jin is sleeping, Your Highness. He had been having a fever for a few days. Requesting Your Highness to let the child rest."     

Zhao Zhuang Chen immediately nodded his head and whispered     

"Yes, he should rest."     

However, the next moment, he was again full of despair as he spoke      

"I didn\'t even know that my son had been having fever. What kind of father I am?"     

Yun Weilan didn\'t say anything.      

She saw as Zhao Zhuang Chen suddenly looked at her and said      

"Weilan, I am afraid. They would also kill me like they killed Empress Mother. Emperor Father …he also wishes to give the throne to Zhao Zhang Wei. Your husband is alone, Weilan. I am afrad what would happen to you and Bo Jin after my death."      

Yun Weilan frowned when she heard this.          

She didn\'t understand what was Zhao Zhuang Chen saying.     

"What is Your Highness saying? Why would His Majesty do such a thing to Your Highness? Unlike Her Majesty, Your Highness had not done anything wrong."     

Though Yun Weilan knew that she was half wrong, she still said it. Zhao Zhuang Chen had done many wrong things, however, he saved himself very cleverly every time.      

She doubted that the Emperor already knew about his deeds but never punished him.      

However, she was shocked when Zhao Zhuang Chen said suddenly     

"No…Empress Mother did nothing wrong. She didn\'t poison Noble Consort Shu. She had been framed, Weilan. Emperor Father and Zhang Wei framed her so that I would not have anyone on my side who would fight for me."     

Yun Weilan had never expected such a thing.      

It took her a long time to compose herself and when she did, she heard Zhao Zhuang Chen saying     

"Now they will do the same to me…and after my death, they would throw you out and kill Bo Jin as well so that no one will have the chance to snatch the throne from him."     

"No!"     

Yun Weilan shouted suddenly.      

"My Xiao Jin had done nothing wrong to anyone. Why would he suffer?"     

However, Zhao Zhuang Chen immediately contradicted her and said      

"They would do this, Weilan. You don\'t understand the Palace matters more than me."     

Yun Weilan\'s face went pale when she heard this.      

She didn\'t worry about herself. She was worried about her son.      

Zhao Zhuang Chen suddenly cupped her cheeks again and said gently     

"But don\'t worry. I have not given up yet. I will fight till my last breath. I won\'t let them do anything to you and our son, Weilan."     

"But for that, I need your help, Weilan."     

"What kind of help?"      

Yun Weilan again looked at him with blank eyes.      

"You need to convince your Father to be on my side, Weilan. I need your clan\'s support."     

Yun Weilan suddenly lowered her eyes. She was not sure if her father would really help her.     

Zhao Zhuang Chen saw that she was not responding, he shook her shoulders gently and said      

"Weilan, You need to do this, For our Bo Jin, Weilan. After me, it will be Bo Jin who will ascend the throne. But if we didn\'t do anything now, then our son wouldn\'t even get to eat the dirt."         

"He will be killed by Zhao Zhang Wei mercilessly."     

The words seemed to have broken something in Yun Weilan\'s heart and she immediately nodded her head and said      

"I will talk to Father. I will talk to Father today itself."     

Zhao Zhuang Chen pressed a kiss on her forehead and then hugged her in his arms tightly.     

Yun Weilan\'s eyes were still blank.      

On the other hand, Zhao Zhang Wei whose chin was on the top of wangfei\'s head smirked coldly.      

Now his game would start.      

He wouldn\'t give the chance to his father to make a move against him.      

Even before that, he would remove him and then Zhao Zhang Wei from his path.      

.     

.     

.     

The Qin\'s Emperor left soon after.     

After he had been shown the evidence that his sister really was at fault, he felt ashamed to stay in Xin.      

When Zhao Zhuang Chen woke up the next morning, he got to know about this, He crushed his uncle inside his heart.      

He had been thinking of contacting his uncle in some way so that he would be able to get help from him in his plan.     

He sighed as he got ready for the Imperial Assembly in a bad mood.      

Zhao Zhuang Chen couldn\'t focus on what was discussed in the Imperial Assembly. He somehow spent two shichen in the Imperial Assembly and when it was over, he left the Imperial Court as soon as possible.      

However, when he stepped out of the Imperial Court, he collided with someone.      

He felt very angry but controlled himself to spat out something that would harm his already deteriorating image.      

He raised his head to find out that it was Li Qiang who had just collided with him.      

Zhao Zhuang Chen was about to walk past when he suddenly felt Minister Li holding his hand and then there was something handed to him.      

And then Minister Li left.
