Chapter 652 What Was Happening In Imperial City?!

??An Si's looked at Gu Li's hand on An Ju's wrist with cold eyes. 

??He couldn't describe the odd feeling inside his chest…perhaps because he was feeling it for the first time. However, at this moment, he wanted nothing to remove Gu Li's hand from there. 

??Why was he even touching her?

??Did he not have some basic manners?

??Oddly enough, he had never felt this angry when anyone in their own companions, An Ping, An Zhi, An Su, or An Shing touched An Ju. 

??He didn't know that it was merely because he was very sure that they didn't have that kind of interest in An Ju. 

??However, the way Gu Li looked at An Ju with interest-filled eyes, didn't make him feel very secure. 

??And perhaps this was the first step for him towards realizing what he actually felt for An Ju. 

??However, no matter how angry he was, he couldn't just go there and fight with Gu Li because he knew very well that An Ju would never like it. 

??He could only stand there and watch if she would throw his hand away and scold him for touching her without her permission.

??But soon, An Si didn't have that privilege also as he heard his master calling him. 

??The air brought the order and the duty won over his feelings. In no less than a moment, he disappeared from there without looking back at An Ju and Gu Li even once. 

??.

??.

??.

??"An Su had accompanied me until he saw Xi Ling with Rui. You didn't notice?"

??He asked An Ju who looked confused. 

??Actually, she had been away for some time and helping Li Hua in collecting firewoods who were helping Youxio shadow guards. Since her master was with Rui, An Ju was wise enough not to interrupt their private time. 

??Perhaps that's why she didn't notice when An Su came and left. 

??However, her heart was still not free of doubt completely.

??She pulled her hand away from his grip indifferently and asked coldly 

??"Where did he go?"

??Gu Li shrugged his shoulder implying that he didn't know. 

??An Ju looked at him with narrowed eyes for a moment and then turned around to leave because she heard her master calling her. The wind carried his order and she knew that he was somewhere around. She would just tell her master about this matter. Maybe he knew where An Su was.

??However, right now she needed to be around Madam Xi. She knew very well that her master was calling her for this so she left immediately. 

??While Gu Li who could see very well that she didn't believe shook his head helplessly looking at her back. 

??It seemed that Lord Xi's people were like him. 

??Very doubtful. 

??But he couldn't really blame them or Xi Ying regardless of how much their dubious behavior for him and his people offended him. 

??They were still unaware of what kind of bond he and his people shared with Rui. But they would be able to see it soon. 

??Gu Li told himself as he turned around to go inside his master's tent. 

??—----------------------

??A little far away from all the tents, Xi Ying sat on the huge stone. 

??In front of him, An Si was standing with his head bowed in respect. 

??"Something new happened in the Imperial City?"

??Xi Ying asked his shadow guard who raised his head to answer his master's question. 

??His eyes were still lowered as he said 

??"Nothing new in the Li Manor, Master. There has not been much interaction between the second household and the first household of Li Manor in the past few days. First Madam Li's health is bad and Minister Li is busy accompanying her. He didn't go to the Imperial Palace also."

??Xi Ying nodded his head. 

??This was good. 

??Since Li Qiang was not showing any signs of rebelling, he thought that he should withdraw his guards from Li Manor after returning to Imperial City. 

??Though he didn't fear General Li, he knew that the middle-aged General Li might not like it if he got to know that he was having his shadow guards to keep an eye on his manor. And he also didn't have any interest in having each and every information if they were useless. 

??"Lu Manor had been in a little chaos, Master."

??Xi Ying raised his eyebrows as he continued sharpening his sword while An Si continued.

??What An Su said was something that Xi Ying ad not expected.

??He had sent the information to Yu Wei about Li Na's great deeds. She could have used them very well and proved to Lu Jianye that Li Na was not a good girl. 

??However, Yu Wei didn't do as much harm as he had expected her to do to Li Na.

??Seeing this, he had concluded that her love for Lu Jianye was too much…so much so she didn't want him to get hurt after knowing Li N'a true face. 

??However, after hearing An Si's words, Xi Ying's assumptions changed to a great extent. 

??The day banquet finished in the Imperial Palace, Yu Wei refused to become the concubine of Lu Manor. Lu Jianye's father was very angry with him and the latter himself went to Yu Wei and said that he wanted her to become his main wife. 

??However, even after such a tempting offer from the former's side, Yu Wei refused to accept it. 

??She left Lu Manor and the Imperial City a day ago. 

??The Yu Family broke relations with Lu Family leading to the Lu family's anger toward Lu Jianye who was already very heartbroken and could care less about his family's anger. 

??It was not that Yu Wei didn't want to hurt Lu Jianye by showing him Li Na's deeds, Xi Ying thought that perhaps she had just come to the point where she had stopped caring about everything and she was letting the things flow. 

??When everything and everyone reached their end, she was getting what she wanted but she had realized that now she no longer had the courage to accept it. 

??According to Xi Ying, what Yu Wei did was right. 

??Lu Jianye might be a great scholar and might take his clan to new heights in the future, but he didn't have a wide point of view.

??If he could fall for Li Na then perhaps he could fall for some other woman in the future very easily as well who would plan to win his heart.   

??No one could predict anything. 

??However, Xi Ying's assumption changed again when he heard from An Su that Lu Jianye went to the Emperor and pleaded with him to reduce Li Na's sentence.
