Chapter 553 Yi Junjie\'s Request From The Emperor

The news spread through the Imperial City like wildfire.

The Second Prince, Zhao Zhang Wei was attacked during the banquet in front of so many people. The Nobel family members who were present during the banquet immediately left the Imperial Palace after the banquet hall started to go chaotic.

A few people stayed in the Imperial Palace who were also a part of the Imperial Court as they had to hear the next orders from the Emperor.

Though in all this, Yi Huiqing got wounded and now was fighting with death, no one really mentioned her.

The most important thing that seemed to everyone was that someone dared to attack an Imperial Prince in the Imperial Palace itself.

It was a shame…a shame on the Imperial Clan.

The shame that they let the attack happen and the shame that someone really dared to do such a thing.

"Find out who was behind this attack."

Minister Xin who was the in-charge of the investigation immediately nodded his head while other ministers stood silently waiting for the Emperor to say his next words.

However, Zhao Wang Lei didn\'t say anything after that.

He merely waved his hand as if to dismiss everyone.

A few people sighed in relief. Most of them had expected that the Emperor would be very angry after this incident and hence they were behaving very carefully all this while but the Emperor didn\'t look even that angry.

This made them wonder if Zhao Wang Lei would have been the same if it was Zhao Zhuang Chen who was attacked.

Again the people had their own thoughts.

That the Emperor actually favored the first prince not the second.

When First Prince was the crown prince, it was very clear who would sit on the throne. However, after he was dethroned, the Emperor never made his intentions clear that who he wanted to make his heir.

The Second Prince was very intelligent. Though he had started to reveal his intelligence only now, the people could see that the Imperial Prince, Zhao Zhang Wei, also had the ambition of ascending the throne.

While the first prince who had suddenly fallen from the grace always had the same ambition so who was going to win in the end!

The ministers were about to leave when they suddenly noticed Minister Xin standing at the same place and a moment later, Minister Xin asked the Emperor.

"Your Majesty, How is Princess Consort Yi doing now?"

The Ministers paused and didn\'t leave immediately when they heard Minister Xin\'s question. This was something…that even they should have asked. However, their mind was filled with many other thoughts so they never thought about the one who got actually harmed in the whole process.

Zhao Wang Lei\'s face didn\'t have any expression when he answered Minister Xin\'s question.

"The Imperial Physician said that there is no chance of saving the Princess Consort."

The ministers were shocked when they heard this and looked at each other with a deep gaze.

It was a thing to note down that Zhao Zhang Wei didn\'t have any heir and Zhao Zhuang had a son who was already walking on the ground of the Imperial Palace.

And hence this thing made Zhao Zhuang Chen a stronger candidate for the throne than Zhao Zhang Wei.

And now if Princess Consort Yi died, then the prince would have no choice but to marry someone else as his wife.

But then again, it would only result in taking more time to produce an heir from the main wife.

But Minister Xin was thinking about something else.

"Your Majesty, why don\'t we look for some other physician? As long as Princess Consort Yi is breathing, there is still some chance that we can save her."

Zhao Wang Lei\'s face was again emotionless just like before but inside his heart, he was feeling very irritated because of Minister Xin\'s words.

He was not happy with whatever happened.

It was not that he really cared about Zhao Zhang Wei being dead or alive. It was just a few moments where he could see Yi Jie was also stolen from him because of all this mess.

And now Minister Xin\'s suggestion irked him more.

Yi Huiqing was of no use to him.

He had passed an Imperial edict of marriage between Zhao Zhang Wei and her so that he would be able to control Yi Clan.

Even if she died, it would not matter and change anything for him.

Zhao Wang Lei had just thought this when Eunuch Wang came running inside the chambers and said hurriedly

"Your Majesty, Lord Yi is outside and wishes to meet Your Majesty."

Zhao Wang Lei\'s eyes flickered with irritation again.

He obviously could guess what was someone from the Yi family doing here. However, he had no choice except for allowing this Lord Yi to enter his chambers.

The ministers left the chambers one by one.

Outside the chambers, they saw Yi Junjie standing with a cold face.

A few of them wanted to go ahead and gave some sympathy but seeing the cold and emotionless face of the young Lord, they decided that it was better not to do so.

Without even glancing at them seriously, Yi Junjie went inside the Emperor\'s chambers.

Inside his chambers, Zhao Wang Lei signed Eunuch Wang to pour some tea for him in the cup.

He could feel a headache forming because of all this.

"Greetings, Your Majesty."

Yi Junjie greeted Zhao Wang Lei as soon as he entered the chambers.

Zhao Wang Lei didn\'t acknowledge his greeting until he took a sip from the cup and put it back on the table.

"What is Lord Yi here for?"

A moment later, he asked calmly.

Yi Junjie who was standing with his head bowed until now finally raised his head.

"Your Majesty, this one is here with a request."

"Go ahead."

Zhao Wang Lei said casually.

Yi Junjie obviously noticed the casualness in his voice. His eyes were cold and indifferent seeing him behaving like this.

He was just coming from his sister\'s chambers. After coming to know that Li Rui was there to treat Yi Huiqing, Yi Junjie was relieved.

He was about to go to Xi Manor to tell Li Rui everything.

However, he had not expected that she would already be there. Now he was at least assured that there was someone to treat his sister.

Yi Junjie knew that if Li Rui could not save Yi Huiqing then there was perhaps no one in this Empire who would be able to save Yi Huiqing.

And he believed that Li Rui would really save his sister but what after his sister would come back to life!

That was what he was here for!

"Your Majesty, this one requests a separation for his sister from the His Highness, The Second Prince."

And the Imperial Chambers were filled with an ear-deafening silence after that.
