Xi Ying as well as Li Rui was surprised.
It had been many days since they had any contact with Empress Dowager. After Empress Dowager had told them such a big secret that day, there had been no conversation or any talk between both sides.
Li Rui looked at Xi Ying who said nothing.
She sighed as she decided to take the matter into her hands.
"What does Her Majesty want to convey?"
The shadow guard looked at Li Rui who had asked her this question. He frowned as he looked at Xi Ying again who had been sitting silently while the woman was asking the question in his place.
It was not that he felt low of Li Rui because she was a woman. His own mistress was a woman.
It was just that he didn't know if he could really answer Li Rui's question. This was a serious matter. He didn't even know who she was and what kind of relationship she had with this matter.
On the other hand, Xi Ying looked at the shadow guard sharply.
