His Rui

Chapter 515 An Shing Leaves The Manor

Li Rong was seated inside one of the rooms in the Imperial Palace.

Her face was blank but her eyes were filled with resentment and coldness as she remembered how Yi Jie had refused her when she had begged Li Heng to stop Xi Ying.

She raised her head when she heard the sound of the door being opened and immediately stood up from the bed when she saw that it was her husband.

"Qiang, what happened?"

Li Rong asked in a hoarse voice as she walked toward her husband. He had a very grim face.

Hearing the question, Li Qiang raised his head. His eyes had exhaustion as he whispered

"Lu Jianye asked me whether whatever Xi Ying said about Li Na was true or not."

Li Rong's eyes flashed with fear and panic when she heard this. She held her husband's arm as she asked him

"Wh…what did you say?"

Li Qiang shook his head as he pressed his head with his other hand and then answered

"I didn't get the chance. Lu Family spotted us and Master Lu started to advise Lu Jianye that he should leave the thought of this marriage. He said that even if Li Na and Li Caihong had not done any such thing, he should not marry a girl whom Xi Ying despised this much, otherwise the whole Lu Clan would suffer."

A shaky breath left Li Rong's lips as she suddenly felt very weak.

Yes, who will dare to marry her daughters now?

Their life …even if Xi Ying didn't prove anything today was already ruined.

A loud sob escaped Li Rong's lips and Li Qiang felt more depressed than before.

He stepped forward to comfort his wife but Li Rong stepped back …away from him and said

"I don't need you to comfort me, Qiang. I want you to avenge my daughters. Can you do that? No, you can't because you are too attached to your younger brother."

Li Qiang's face went emotionless when he heard this.

He understood where it was going.

And sure enough, Li Rong said

"That's why you never went to see the Empress again, right?"

Li Rong chuckled bitterly. Her heart was filled with so much bitterness and anger.

"Did you see just now how he was standing there when his wife refused to help our daughters? Li Heng just proved today that there will always be a difference between his children and our children for him. If it had been his son or daughter then he would have done anything to keep all this hidden but he would no longer hide it because this time, it is our daughters who are in trouble. Qiang, why can't you do the same?"

Li Qiang just lowered his head in response. His face was emotionless and no one could tell what was going on inside his mind.

Li Rong shook her head helplessly when she saw this. She stepped forward and held his arm as she pleaded

"Qiang, do something. I request you to do something at least once for our children. This position of general that your brother has, the happy life that his children …all of this should have belonged to you and your children. They have snatched everything from us."

Li Rong couldn't even see that she was just repeating whatever Li Na had taught her in all these days.

In the few days of the beginning, she would always shut Li Na up when she would talk like this but with time, it could be seen that Li Na had successfully brainwashed her one mother.

Now even Li Rong thinks that the second household of the Li Clan had stolen everything that they deserved.

"Qiang, will you be able to see our children living a life like this?"

Li Rong was breathless by now. She was crying too much.

Li Qiang suddenly raised his head and held her hand.

"Don't worry, I will do something."

Li Rong however didn't seem to believe her husband's words and just shook her head again and again.

Tears after tears slid down her cheek but Li Qiang still held her hand tightly and comforted her.

"I will do something, don't worry."

An San reached Xi Manor as soon as he could reach.

Somehow he knew that his master wanted An Shing to help him in presenting the evidence he needed to prove Lady Li innocent.

As much as An San knew that he should not help his master if he wanted princess happiness who would be happy only if Li Rui's reputation stayed like what it was in the Imperial City, An San still offered his help this time.

Because An San didn't want to stay out of Xi Manor anymore.

It took him a long time to understand that this time his master was really angry at him. He had actually taken it very lightly. But before, no shadow guard had angered his master so much.

It was only him and he also got a very well-deserved punishment.

In fact, An San knew that he deserved more punishment but a part of his heart still felt wrong. Still, he was making efforts to get forgiven …only to create more misunderstanding between his master and Lady Li so that his master would start to hate Li Rui again.

Only then he would be able to open Xi Manor's gates for Princess Wenling.

"Stop here."

As expected, as soon as he tried to enter Xi Manor, An Shing appeared in front of him blocking him completely.

"What are you doing here?"

An Shing asked coldly. His behavior couldn't help but make An San frown.

Though he had made a mistake, he was being punished by his master but his companions shadow guards should at least not behave like this with him.

He was unknown to the fact that everyone who was behaving coldly with him already knew his deeds that he thought were hidden well.

However, since it was not the first time, An Shing was behaving that way, An San ignored and suppressed his anger and said

"Master has asked you to come to the Imperial Palace as soon as possible."

An Shing frowned in confusion as well as in suspicion.
