A day ago, the whole city was talking about how First Lady Li was drugged with aphrodisiacs and was found inside a room with Prime Minister Xi. And a day after, the whole city talked about how it was all planned by General Li and his elder daughter.
The reason behind doing all this was because she could not bear being rejected by Prime Minister Xi.
Before Imperial Banquet, General Li went to Prime Minister Xi and asked him if he would like to marry his daughter, Li Rui. The cold-faced and indifferent Prime Minister Xi rejected the offer and hence General Li and his daughter planned all this.
A few Hours Ago
"Lady Li, we checked all the rooms outside the banquet hall but we didn't find any imperial guard with the description you provided us."
The whole Li family was silent after hearing these words. Li Rui told Minister Xin that she was dragged inside the room by an imperial guard whom she had stabbed with her hairpin.
