Chapter 566 Appearance Can Be Misleading

After having dinner, Li Rui checked Yi Huiqing once more. She also checked the medicine presceribed by the Imperial Physician.

After she said that, everything was alright, Zhao Zhang Wei sighed in relief.

Xi Ying told him that now they needed to leave.

The young prime minister wanted his wife to have rest. Though Zhao Zhang Wei wished that Li Rui would stay in the Imperial Palace only until Yi Huiqing would recover from the dagger wound, however, he knew very well that it was impossible.

Xi Ying would never allow Li Rui to live in the Imperial Palace where she had already been harmed countless times.

So he decided to compromise.

The young prime minister was at least agreeing to bring his wife here whenever it was needed.

After Xi Ying and Li Rui left, Zhao Zhang Wei asked Lin Daiyu to let other servants and maids enter Lanati Courtyard and clean his wangfei's chambers.

He knew very well that if the Imperial Physician already knew that Yi Huiqing was now free from the poison then it would be difficult to hide it.

Anyways he would need to reveal it sooner or later.

So he said to Lin Daiyu.

"Ask Imperial Physician Li To come here."

Lin Daiyu immediately left to do both the jobs.

Imperial Physician Li came to Lantai Courtyard soon as if he was sitting ready to visit Lantai Courtyard.

However, when he saw the scene of Zhao Zhang Wei sharpening his sword in Yi Huiqing's chambers, the old physician felt his breath hitching inside his throat.

"Y..Your Highness."

Zhao Zhang Wei didn't even raise his head as he said

"So Imperial Physician Li is here?"

"Yes, Your Highness."

"Good."

Zhao Zhang Wei nodded his head in satisfaction but Imperial Physician Li only flinched when he sharpened his sword again.

Never in his dreams, the old physician had thought that a gentle second prince could also behave like this.

A few moments later, Zhao Zhang Wei finally raised his head and said

"Imperial Physician Li, it was you who treated Benwangfei."

Zhao Zhang Wei said firmly but Imperial Physician Li only looked confused in response.

"But Your Highness…this servant didn't…"

However, Imperial Physician Li stopped amidst his words when he saw Zhao Zhang Wei's phoenix eyes going cold at his words.

He gulped audibly as the sweat started to form on his forehead.

"Did Imperial Phyisciaan Li say something?"

"No, Your Highness."

The old physician who had learned well said immediately and Zhao Zhang Wei smiled immediately …just like how the gentle second prince used to smile.

However, this smile now only gave chills to Imperial Physician Li.

Appearance could be misleading.

The old physician learned a new lesson in his life today.

"Yi Jie, go and have some rest, alright?"

General Li said to his wife who was sitting silently on the bed. His eyes were filled with worry and distress as he looked at her suspiciously pale face.

She must be very tired to have such a pale face. General Li thought inside his heart.

Yi Jie looked toward her husband and shook her head lightly.

"Heng, is there any news from the Imperial Palace? How is Huiqing now?"

General Li sighed heavily as this was not the first time Yi Jie was asking him this question. However, he had the same answer.

He didn't have any news.

How could he have any news when the second prince had disallowed everyone from seeing Yi Huiqing!

General Li just hoped that Xi Ying would have enough mind to bring Li Rui to the Imperial Palace to treat Yi Huiqing.

Though he had already sent a letter to Li Hua who would also tell Li Rui if she didn't know already that Yi Huiqing needed him.

General Li knew very well that now it was only she who could save Li Rui.

"I will wake you up as soon I will get any news. But for now, you should rest."

General Li said gently and tried to make her lie down on the bed forcefully. If Yi Jie got sick, then he would not be able to bear it.

However, Yi Jie resisted and pushed her husband's hands away.

"I don't wish to sleep, Heng."

She pleaded to General Li who looked helpless.

Seeing this, Yi Jie continued softly.

"My mind f very disturbed. I don't understand what kind of enmity the Empress had with our daughter to do all this. I don't understand why the princess who used to adore our Rui so much suddenly turned so vicious. That nanny…just what kind of wrong thing did our Rui do to her?"

General Li took his wife in his arms when he saw her eyes going teary after her outburst.

Yi Jie was breathing heavily but she still continued to say

"And now our Huiqing…why both of our daughters are suffering so much, Heng?"

General Li couldn't answer his wife's question. He could only pat herb back gently to comfort her.

Today's revelation had also shocked him.

Before General Li had his own doubts when Xi Ying had told him that it was Zhao Wang Lei who wanted to kill Li Rui.

But now, when General Li focused on this matter deeply, he could see that something was amiss.

The nanny said that she schemed against Li Rui because the Empress asked her to do so and hence she was Empress' person but if she was really Empress' person then why would she have pushed the princess inside the pond.

It was clearly someone else who was involved in all this.

Just when he was thinking this, a maid came running inside the courtyard and knocked on the door.

General Li went to look who it was.

"Master, there is news from the Imperial Palace. Lord Yi sent it. Lady Yi is alright now."

General Li immediately released a sigh of relief and went back inside the room to tell this news to his wife.

However, when he saw the scene inside the room, his eyes went wide and his heart was filled with panic.
