Inside the Delan Courtyard, Zhao Zhuang Chen had finally gained consciousness.

However, he was not in the state to say anything.

Both sides of his mouth were bruised very badly making his face hurt whenever he tried to speak.

Sitting at the edge of the bed, Empress Qin Wenya looked at her son's all bruised and swollen face and her heart was filled with fury.

"His Majesty didn't do right. That b***d hit you so badly and he was asked only to kneel outside your courtyard, that too, only for one afternoon and evening."

Zhao Zhuang Chen's eyes were also filled with resentment when he came to know about this. His whole body hurt so much that he wished to kill Zhao Zhang Wei right then and there.

It was solely because of him that he was in such a state at this moment.

So Zhao Zhuang Chen didn't stop his mother when she said that she will talk to his Father Emperor and then make sure that Zhao Zhang Wei get the punishment he deserves.

Standing a few steps away from the bed, the wangfei of Zhao Zhuang Chen, Yun Weilan who heard the empress's words couldn't help but shake her head with a sigh. She was actually very disgusted with both mother and son and more disgusted by their selfishness and logic to prove themselves reasonable.

"You need to take care of Zhuang Chen."

She nodded her head lightly when the Empress said these words to her suddenly.

She could also feel Zhao Zhuang Chen's sharp glare at herself. Since the day she had spoken against him when her son was poisoned, Zhao Zhuang Chen had always been like this.

He just could not beat her because he was scared that it will come out and then everyone will look at him strangely. After all, she was a princess consort so she couldn't hide in her courtyard every day and hide her wounds.

However, it still didn't stop him from giving her pain in every possible way he could…whether it was during their intimacy that he always forced on her or it was during letting her do every work of him like a maid.

However, Yun Weilan didn't regret whatever she did. She could save her son that day. Even if she had to do something like this again, she will do it without any hesitation.

What she regretted was marrying Zhao Zhuang Chen just because her na?ve self had wanted to please her father once.

Empress Qin Wenya soon left Delan Courtyard and then went to the Imperial Study room where the Emperor was still working.

She was allowed to go inside soon by Eunuch Wang.

No one what exactly happened inside the Imperial Study room but when Empress Qin Wenya came out, her eyes were very bright with joy as if she had won the whole world.

Going back to her chambers, she suddenly went inside her separated study room and after a few moments she came out with a letter.

She gave the letter to a Eunuch and then said

"This letter should reach Minister Li but anyone in the Li Manor should not come to know about it."

The old Eunuch immediately nodded his head and said that he had understood.

After that, he left from there to do the asked job.

Alone in her chambers, Empress Qin Wenya smirked as she whispered

"Li Clan…now this Empress will see who save Li Can from getting destroyed. Li Rui…This Empress will make sure that you will be left alone with nothing to protect you. This Empress will avenge Wenwen and Zhuang Chen."

(Li Manor)

(Late Night)

Li Qiang came running to his courtyard.

A maid informed him that his wife Li Rong was having a fever.

He couldn't help but blame himself. He must have gone too harsh on Li Rong. She birthed their children after going through so much pain and he just snatched all her right away to take any decisions related to them.

However, her excessive love was now becoming poison for them …a poison that will not live them peacefully in the future.

He was actually trapped.

He loved his wife and he wanted to become a responsible father also …something that he should have become long before.

Standing at the door, he breathed deeply many times before he finally stepped inside the room.

Li Qiang had steeled his heart, however, as soon as he saw his wife lying on the bed with a pale face, he felt very distressed.

"Rong'er"

He called out gently as he sat on the edge of the bed and held his wife's hand gently.

A moment later, Li Rong opened her eyes and looked at her husband. Her eyes went teary.

"Qiang…Qiang you are here."

She whispered in a very light tone as tears started to slide down her eyes disappearing in her hair.

"I thought that …you will never come back to me …again."

"Rubbish…"

Li Qiang scolded his wife although very gently. He stroked her hair as he said

"Why would I not come to you?"

After that, he picked up the bowl of medicine from the bedside table and then said

"Here …drink this. The maid told me that you didn't take the medicine."

Saying this, Li Qiang helped his wife in sitting on the bed and then tried to make her drink the medicine. However, Li Rong turned her mouth away and pushed the bowl away from her lips with her hand.

She looked at her husband with red eyes as she whispered

"Qiang…I never meant that. Whatever I said before, I never meant that."

Li Qiang's eyes flickered with pain when he remembered those words but he smiled tightly. He had actually not been able to let those words out of his mind until now.

However, his wife was ill and he didn't want her to worry much at this moment.

"It's okay. Everything is forgiven to you."

Li Rong smiled a little hearing this and finally agreed to drink the medicine.

After she finished the medicine, Li Qiang helped her in lying down on the bed again. His eyes then went to the baskets lying in the corner.

"What are they?"

Li Rong perhaps heard him and answered his question on seeing his eyes fixed at some certain place.

"They were sent from the Imperial Palace."

Li Qiang nodded his head. It was quite normal to receive something from the Imperial Palace whenever the new soldiers from Li Clan left Imperial City to go to the borders.

He was about to leave the room letting Li Rong have some rest but he suddenly turned around and walked towards the basket.

Li Qiang remembered that once he had received hundred-year-old ginseng from the Imperial Palace. Perhaps the Imperial Palace sent something like that this time also.

If they had, then it could help his wife in regaining some health very quickly.

Thinking this, he walked towards the baskets placed in the corner.

Although he could also ask the physician for such ginseng, it was not guaranteed that the physician would have one with great quality. However, ginseng from the Imperial Palace will certainly be of very good quality.

Li Qiang didn't find any ginseng in the basket.

What he found was a letter…a letter hidden inside the basket very carefully.
