Chapter 709: Making A Deal



Chapter 709: Making A Deal

Xi Ying turned around and smiled politely         

"Minister Xin"     

Minister Xin reciprocated the smile and looked at the old physician standing beside him with scrutinizing eyes.     

Xi Ying\'s eyes flickered and he tried to divert his attention.      

"This Lord hopes that Minister Xin doesn\'t mind that this Lord put his nose in this matter."     

Minister Xin chuckled as he looked at Xi Ying again.     

"Such a rare day. When did Prime Minister Xi start to care about these small things?"     

Xi Ying smiled calmly.      

He had actually known that Minister Xin was a very open-minded person. An idea suddenly came to Xi Ying\'s mind and he asked Minister Xin     

"Minister Xin. this Lord needs to attend some personal business."     

Minister Xin seemed to realize and said immediately     

"This Minister can look after him then. Rest assured, Prime Minister Xi."     

Xi Ying nodded his head and looked at the old physician. The old physician didn\'t want to be left alone but he didn\'t want to be seen as if he was scared.      

So despite the fear he was feeling, he nodded his head and then stepped forward to stand beside Minister Xin.     

After making this arrangement, Xi Ying finally came out of the outer hall of the Imperial Court and then walked towards the private room for ministers.      

Once he was behind the wall, he used Qingqong and flew to the Imperial Study room.      

When Xi Ying stepped inside the Imperial Study room after entering through the window, he found a sight that gave him immense satisfaction.      

Zhao Wang Lei was sitting on his seat with his fingers pressing his temple as if he was in a deep mess.      

He perhaps sensed his presence and raised his head to look at him.      

"Prime Minister Xi"     

Xi Ying disliked it when he saw the relief on Zhao Wang Lei\'s face at the sight of him. He wanted to see the same fear and panic, Zhao Wang Lei was truly feeling inside his heart.      

However, it seemed that those days were still far away.      

Xi Ying walked to sit on the chair in front of Zhao Wang Lei without even asking for his permission. However, Zhao Wang Lei never seemed to notice it perhaps because he was too anxious to find some solution to his present problem.      

"Prime Minister Xi, why did you present that old physician in the Imperial Court without discussing it with Zhen?"     

Xi Ying raised his eyebrows at the question. Zhao Wang Lei was trying his best to hide but he could see the hidden rage.      

"Your Majesty, this Lord had thought that Your Majesty wanted the justice for Noble Consort Shu. That\'s why only this Lord presented that witness in the Imperial Court directly."         

Xi Ying answered very calmly.      

Zhao Wang Lei immediately cursed himself inside his heart. Why had he said those words to him!     

Now, he immediately needed to think of some way …especially when Xi Ying also asked him.     

"However, Your Majesty, what this Lord had warned Your Majesty of happened. The first Prince questioned Your Majesty\'s words at Noble Consort Shu\'s death. Now, what will Your Majesty do?"      

Zhao Wang Lei was silent for a great amount of time before he said      

"Zhen had lied at that time."     

Xi Ying\'s eyes flashed with mockery on finally hearing the truth. However, soon they were filled with disgust when he heard him continue     

"Noble Consort Shu had committed adultery."     

Xi Ying\'s lips were pressed in a thin line as he watched Zhao Wang Lei\'s act…the act that was full of lies.      

"Zhen didn\'t want her mistake to stain the reputation of Imperial Clan. So Zhen had killed her and then buried her without anyone letting her know the truth. After she was dead, Zhen couldn\'t bear the thought of her being buried in the same place where our ancestors have been buried. She didn\'t deserve to be there. That\'s why Zhen asked our people to bury Noble Consort Shu in the garden of Empress\'s chambers."     

No matter how disgusting he was feeling, Xi Ying had to maintain a calm and composed expression on his face when Zhao Wang Lei raised his head and looked at him.      

"This subject wishes that Your Majesty feels lighter after sharing such a deep secret."      

  Zhao Wang Lei pretended to sigh heavily in despair.      

Xi Ying didn\'t say anything after that …at least not until Zhao Wang Lei spoke again.      

"However, Zhen can\'t reveal this now. It will have the same effect on the reputation of the Imperial Clan as it would have back then. People can even doubt whether Zhang Wei is our son or not though Zhen believes that he is. After all, everything of his matches with us, Zhen had investigated had come to know that Noble Consort Shu started this filthy act of hers after she had birthed Zhang Wei."     

Xi Ying nodded his head silently feeling more and more disgusting with Zhao Wang Lei wondering just how low he could fall.     

He pretended as if he was a very ideal father just to protect himself.      

Xi Ying breathed deeply and decided to say what he had come for.      

"This Minister has a plan, Your Majesty."     

And Zhao Wang Lei\'s ears immediately perked up.        

"What kind of plan, Prime Minister Xi?"     

Xi Ying, however, didn\'t tell Zhao Wang Lei his plan immediately.      

He first smiled a little politely and said      

"Your Majesty, would it be too much if this Minister will ask for something in return for helping Your Majesty?"     

For the first time, Zhao Wang Lei didn\'t bother to hide his anger from Xi Ying.          

For the first time, he felt much more suspicious of Xi Ying than at any other moment. Especially when Xi Ying continued he couldn\'t help but wonder if all of this was his plan from the beginning.     

"This Minister wants Your Majesty to execute the Empress in public after she will be found at blame for killing Noble Consort Shu. That\'s the only thing this Minister wants from Your Majesty."     

Zhao Wang Lei\'s face was cold but he was confused as well. There was no doubt that he also wanted to kill Qin Wenya …especially after he had come to know that she knew his secret.      

However, what kind of profit will Xi Ying earn from his death.      

As if knowing what he was thinking, Xi Ying answered Zhao Wang Lei\'s question.      

"Her Majesty had tried to harm this Lord\'s unborn child. How can this Lord miss this opportunity of punishing her!"     

Xi Ying smiled coldly as he finished his words.      

Zhao Wang Lei\'s eyes flickered and his suspicion that Xi Ying had planned all this to get his revenge increased only after this.      

However, he could only nod his head and ask Xi Ying to tell him his plan. They didn\'t have much time or he should say that he didn\'t have much time.      

After Xi Ying told Zhao Wang Lei his plan, Zhao Wang Lei\'s phoenix eyes were shining like stars.      

He looked at Xi Ying with astonishment.      

He no longer felt angry if Xi Ying had really planned this. After all, he also wanted to kill Qin Wenya somehow,      

However, what he didn\'t know was that by killing Qin Wenya he would be removing the biggest threat from Xi Ying\'s path as well.
