Chapter 750: How To Give Zhao Zhuang Chen The New Plan?!



Chapter 750: How To Give Zhao Zhuang Chen The New Plan?!

That night, when a man in black cloth suddenly jumped inside Yun Weilan\'s chambers, she was shocked to the extreme.          

It was already midnight and her son was sleeping by her side. She was patting him gently however there was no trace of sleep in her eyes.      

These days, Yun Weilan rarely found sleep.      

The thoughts of what will happen would continuously plague her mind. It was not that she didn\'t trust Xi Ying.      

She trusted him and that was only because of the promise that Li Rui made to her.      

It was just that Yun Weilan didn\'t trust her fate and Zhao Zhuang Chen. She was worried that her fate would again turn into a very twisted destiny and she would be forced to give up on the most precious person of her life, her son.      

That was not what she wanted.      

She was sure that if she had been on Zhao Zhuang Chen\'s side and if Zhao Zhuang Chen really ascended the throne then Zhao Zhuang Chen would immediately marry another wife.      

She didn\'t mind that.      

What she minded was whether her son would be able to live peacefully or not after that! What if something happened to her while living in this horrible place? It was not common for the concubines to die by eating something poisonous. Yun Weilan feared that Zhao Bo Jin would receive the same fate after her if something like that happened.      

And hence she chose to go to Xi Ying\'s side.      

All such thoughts would continue to revolve in Yun Weilan\'s mind all day and night.      

And at this moment also, she was thinking the same.      

She only came out of her trance when she suddenly felt a shadow falling on her.      

Yun Weilan\'s throat went dry immediately and she didn\'t even find her voice to scream loudly. She couldn\'t help but wonder if the man was sent by Zhao Zhuang Chen to kill her.      

Did he find out that she was deceiving him?     

Her hold around her son tightened and she tried her best to hide him behind herself as she sat on the bed and looked at the man with fear-filled eyes.      

"Princess Consort…"     

As Yun Weilan tried to think of what she should do, the man spoke politely.      

"This letter is sent by my Master."     

Yun Weilan looked at the letter forwarded by the man. He was a shadow guard. She realized and continued to look at the letter warily.      

She didn\'t really understand what he meant by the word \'Master\'.     

Perhaps the shadow guard also realized it and said politely     

"This one\'s master is His excellency, Prime Minister Xi."      

Yun Weilan visibly relaxed when she heard this. She also took the letter from the shadow guard\'s hands.      

The shadow guard left immediately.          

Relieved, Yun Weilan first took a deep breath.      

It was obviously the first time that someone had invaded her chambers like this so she was ought to feel afraid.      

When she was finally calm, she walked to the spot where the lamp was lit and opened the letter.      

As Yun Weilan read the letter, her lips parted in shock and her forehead was suddenly full of a deep frown.     

The letter said that the map drawn by Zhao Zhuang Chen could put them in a difficult spot as the secret ways to get inside the Imperial Chambers were all closed by Zhao Wang Lei.      

And hence, Yun Weilan now had to tell Zhao Zhuang Chen about this and also tell him about the right tunnel through which he could really get inside Zhao Wang Lei\'s chambers.      

Yun Weilan bit her lips.      

It was not that she was afraid to tell all this to Zhao Zhuang Chen.      

The problem was something else completely.      

Xi Ying had told her that he had sent her the map which showed the correct tunnel. But what will she say when Zhao Zhuang Chen would ask her where did she get to know this way?      

Yun Weilan sighed heavily as she folded the letter. She burnt the letter immediately as Xi Ying had said, however the map…she had to hide it somewhere before going to sleep.      

Since she was unable to think of a suitable place, Yun Weilan hid the letter inside her sleeve.      

After that, she went to the bed and lay down beside her son.      

The sleep found Yun Weilan\'s eyes much later but in the back of her mind, she was constantly anxious as to how she would show this map to Zhao Zhuang Chen and at the same time have him not feel any suspicion toward her.

"What are you thinking?"     

Xi Ying asked his wife gently when he saw that she was still awake.      

Xi Ling lying between them was deeply asleep as his parents talked in whispers.      

"Nothing…I was just wondering if you will allow me to go with you to the Imperial Palace that night."     

"No!"     

A swift and firm reply came from Xi Ying making Li Rui sigh. She already seemed to know this but she was still disappointed.      

There was a long silence between them. Xi Ying soon started to worry that he had disappointed Li Rui. He didn\'t want to do that but he didn\'t want to put her in such great danger as well.      

Though their plan was simple and didn\'t seem to have any obstacles, the person they were targeting was not simple.          

His thoughts were interrupted when he heard his wife\'s voice.     

"I wish to know why he wants to kill me."     

Xi Ying turned to look at his wife. She was staring at the ceiling with calm eyes. However, he could hear the thousands of words behind her calmness and those few words.      

She wished to know what made such a big Empire\'s Emperor so desperate to kill her…that too from the moment since she had been born.      

He held her hand that was on their son\'s stomach and said firmly      

"Then I will tell you. I will tell you everything you want to know but don\'t ask me to let you go there with me, Rui. Think about our child if not yourself."     

Li Rui sighed.      

A moment later, she looked at Xi Ying with a smile that didn\'t hold any humor as she said      

"What if Father made you promise this time as well that you are not allowed to tell me anything?"     

Xi Ying felt very upset when he saw the bitter smile on his wife\'s lips. He felt upset at himself that he did such a promise to General Li in the past.      

"I promise you, Rui. I won\'t do any such thing this time."     

He won\'t care about what General Li will say to him. He won\'t care about anything.      

What mattered to him was what his wife felt.      

"Do you trust me?"     

He asked when he saw that she was not saying anything and merely looked at him.      

When Li Rui nodded her head gently and whispered \'yes\', Xi Ying\'s hold on her hand tightened.      

\'I won\'t disappoint you, Rui.\'     

He said to himself as he saw her asleep finally.      

--------     

The same night, Zhao Zhang Wei also received the new plan sent by Xi Ying\'s shadow guard. He merely looked at it once and then put the letter and map inside his drawer.      

Zhao Zhang Wei\'s study was quite safer than Yun Weilan\'s chambers so he didn\'t have to be so secretive.      

Especially after Qin Wenya had been executed, he felt free enough to have his shadow guard in the Imperial Palace guard his study room.      

Qin Wenya was wiser enough to keep an eye on him constantly. However, Zhao Zhuang Chen\'s attention was focused on Zhao Wang Lei these days also he didn\'t have that much manpower on his side after his and his sister\'s constant attacks on Xi Ying and Li Rui.      

This was something that Xi Ying had told him!     

Instead of the letter, Zhao Zhang Wei was thinking about the woman living in Lantai courtyard.          

It has been many days since he last saw Yi Huiqing.      

He felt restless. However, whenever he would gather his courage to visit her, his step would halt just outside her courtyard and then turn around.      

The courage would vanish suddenly.      

He felt very guilty at the thought of facing her.      

What will he say?     

That it was a mistake…it will never happen again. However, then his mind and heart would suddenly ask him ….does she even care?     

That morning, she passed by him when Shaolin came to him as if she didn\'t even recognize him.      

As if he was merely the second prince of the Imperial Palace for her.      

He didn\'t see the sadness he used to see in her eyes in the past when he would be with some other concubine.      

She looked calm.      

And he didn\'t know if this was something to be relaxed about or something to be worried about.      

He only felt bothered and restless.      

However, he couldn\'t gather the courage to go and see her.      

For Yi Huiqing, he was a coward. His cowardice had given her wounds that he wanted to heal but didn\'t know how he could do so.      

Somewhere a deep fear was originating in his heart with every passing day.      

As if …as if Yi Huiqing was slipping out of his hands by every second… regardless of how tight his grip was.
