Xi Ying didn't know how he should look into his Li Rui's eyes.
Especially when he heard her speaking in confusion.
"But why would she try to poison Mother?"
Xi Ying didn't know what should he tell her!
It was because of him that Qin Wenya suddenly made her mother her target. He was very sure of that. Neither had he told her about Zhao Wang Lei's plan regarding Yi Jie nor she had tried to poison the latter. However, at that time, he thought that having Qin Wenya against Zhao Wang Lei was more important than anything. Also, since Zhao Zhuang Chen had told everything to Qin Wenya he had to make her believe that Zhao Wang Lei was indeed against them so that she would not go and tell Zhao Wang Lei all this.
And …he had also threatened her not to do anything rubbish!
But she still did this.
Xi Ying was suddenly doubting himself.
Was he really capable of doing all this? …Going against the Emperor himself?
