国产对白熟女受不了了

Chapter 544 The Dream

The banquet hall was filled with a different kind of tension after the princess was dragged outside.

Now the eyes were on Qin Wenya.

Zhao Wang Lei never needed to tell Qin Wenya that she also needed to leave after whatever has been revealed..

The Empress left on her own. Her face didn\'t look good when she passed by Xi Ying\'s side. Her eyes were calm but cold as she stopped there and looked at him for a few moments.

The daring prime minister didn\'t cower away from her cold and calm gaze and looked back with a cold smile on her lips that was very successful in provoking Qin Wenya.

Qin Wenya now had the mere title. All the power that she held before as the Empress was taken away from her.

So what did Xi Ying even have to fear?

She could not even move a strand of his hair when she was an Empress and now that she was no longer the Empress, she would not be able to do anything even now.

Qin Wenya seemed to read all this from Xi Ying\'s cold and mocking eyes.

Her palms were almost bleeding as her nails dug deeper into their skin.

Her heart was burning with the fire of rage but she didn\'t have anywhere to vent.

She could only turn her eyes away from the cold and indifferent prime minister and then leave the banquet hall silently under all the eyes.

The Emperor ordered to start the banquet again.

No one noticed the relieved look that the minsters of the convoy had on their faces. They looked at each other and then looked away as if nothing happened.

The person who they needed to kill Zhao Zhang Wei was here finally.

Also, Zhao Wang Lei giving the responsibility of the harem to Yi Huiqing who was also Zhao Zhang Wei\'s wangfei only confirmed their guess that he was thinking of making Zhao Zhang Wei the next Emperor.

The banquet started again.

Xi Ying now could not wait for it to finish.

He wanted to go back to Xi Manor as soon as possible.

He wanted to see if Li Rui was happy with whatever he did. No matter how she showed herself to be indifferent to all this, Xi Ying knew that Li Rui felt wronged.

She felt wronged because she had to stay inside Li Manor for so many years. She felt wronged because she had heard so many bad words and born so many false accusations for all these years.

Xi Ying wished that all this would give some relief to those feelings of his wife.

Lost in his thoughts, Xi Ying didn\'t notice the peculiar behavior of a man who was now performing in the banquet hall.

He would have surely noticed it if he had not been this lost, if only he knew that there was danger around him.

Hence, it was very late when amidst the dancers, a man suddenly took out a dagger from his sleeve.

Gasps and shouts were heard immediately that brought Xi Ying out of his trance.

The Imperial Guard ran towards the man but still, they were standing a little far away from the performers, and hence their speed could never be compared to the speed of the man who had a dagger in his hands and was ready to throw it.

But where….

Xi Ying who was still trying to understand the situation had his cold eyes narrowed. They flickered when he finally understood who was the target of the dagger.

He swiftly stood up from his seat…ready to fly and throw that dagger away, however, everything was too late.

The dagger left the man\'s hands.

And flew towards Zhao Zhang Wei.

No one understood anything until it reached just near Zhao Zhang Wei.

And then screams echoed in the Imperial banquet hall.

The joyous place soon turned into a battlefield.

This banquet was never supposed to be peaceful.

Li Rui was sleeping inside her room.

Her eyes were closed and her beautiful face glowed because of her pregnancy. Suddenly a soft frown marred her beautiful forehead as if she was seeing something that she didn\'t like.

"No…"

A whisper escaped her lips and her hand clutched the bedsheet tightly.

"Don\'t…"

She whispered again as a tear slid out from one of her eyes. And then the next moment, she suddenly sat up on the bed as she panted heavily.

"Ying…"

Xi Ying\'s name escaped from Li Rui\'s lips and she looked around the room anxiously. Only then did Li Rui realize that what she had been seeing a few moments ago was just a dream.

A deep sigh of relief escaped her lips.

However, Li Rui frowned again when she remembered everything she saw in her dream.

There was blood everywhere.

A sword had flashed in front of her eyes.

A sword that had been separating necks from bodies constantly...without any stop. At the end of her dream, she had seen a deserted ground that was filled with dead bodies.

That had blood and nothing else.

In the mid of that ground was kneeling a man with his head lowered. His hands had a sword.

Li Rui still remembered the mournful vibes the figure emitted at that time. She had been shocked when the man had raised his head suddenly.

His face was full of red blood but she still recognized him.

She recognized him because of his cold and indifferent eyes.

They were so cold that all the coldness of this world seem to be nothing in front of them. Her heart was still restless whenever she remembered those cold eyes.

They didn\'t have any emotions.

Then the man suddenly whispered her name

"Rui"

She remembered the sad smile on his lips as he had raised his hand that had the sword full of blood.

… and then …without any hesitation pierced his own heart with that same sword.

The man was none other than her husband, Xi Ying.
