Chapter 713: The Digging Starts



Chapter 713: The Digging Starts

Xi Ying indeed stayed with his son and wife. Now he was putting the cloth soaked in cold water on Xi Ling\'s forehead.          

More than a shichen had already passed. However, he looked as if he didn\'t remember that he needed to go to the Imperial Palace or he just didn\'t care.      

Li Rui was surprised when Li Hua suddenly came and informed her that someone was sent from Imperial Palace and he is asking for Xi Ying.      

"Send his back. Ask him to tell the Emperor that this Lord\'s son is not well. This Lord will not be able to come."     

Xi Ying said without even raising his head.      

Li Rui was confused when Li Hua looked at her as if asking whether she should really return someone from the Imperial Palace.      

A moment later, she nodded her head and Li Hua left to do what Xi Ying had asked her to do.      

Li Rui looked at Xi Ying and asked him.     

"Ying, did everything go right in the Imperial Palace?"     

Xi Ying finally raised his head and looked at his wife. However, before he could answer her question, the old physician barged inside the room and started to fire one question after another when he saw Xi Ling on the bed.     

"What happened to him, Rui? Yesterday, he was so fine…the brat had even pulled my beard until I had threatened to spank his butt."     

As he said this, he even moved towards the bed and looked at Xi Ling with narrowed eyes seeing that the latter was awake.      

"Brat…are you pretending?"     

He had already stretched his hand out to check Xi Ling\'s pulse as he said this. However, he was frowning soon when he felt the hot skin.      

"He has a fever."     

The old physician whispered as he turned his head to look at Li Rui who nodded her head indicating that she already knew.      

The old physician sighed in relief.      

He had actually heard that Xi Ling was poisoned a few months ago. Though Rui had removed the poison from his body, his body was still weak. That\'s why when he heard that Xi Ling was sick, he was very worried and he immediately came running to Plum Courtyard.      

Fortunately, it was merely a normal fever.      

The next moment, he even stood up and said      

"Wait for a few moments, brat, This Old man will prepare the medicine for you and you will be fine in a few by tomorrow."     

The old physician said proudly while Xi Ling also smiled.      

For the first time perhaps, the old physician felt so much affection seeing the young child lying down on the bed.      

He even felt a little emotional and couldn\'t help but lean down to stroke his head as he said      

"You are not allowed to fall ill after this. But how did you get sick?"     

Li Rui told the old physician that she doubted that Xi Ling threw away the blanket last night and hence caught a cold which soon turned into fever because of his weak body.          

The old physician was frowning again and advised Li Rui like an elder.     

"Rui, you should have him sleep with yourself. He is still very young."     

Though Xi Ling seemed to not like the old man\'s words about him being \'young\' he didn\'t say anything. He just focused his attention on his first sentence and looked at his father.      

Xi Ying was also listening to the old man\'s words silently. He knew that he had been at fault here. Even if he made Xi Ling sleep in a separate room, he should at least have someone to keep a check on him. He was still just a little more than three years old boy.      

No matter how wise he was compared to the boys of his age, he would still have this habit of throwing away the blanket while sleeping.      

With a deep frown on his face, he announced     

"He will sleep with Rui and me from tonight."     

Li Rui who had been looking at Xi Ying sighed in relief. Actually, she had already thought of talking to Xi Ying about this and then making him agree to this.        

The old man also nodded his head in satisfaction when he heard this. However, he frowned again when he looked at Xi Ying and asked in confusion     

"Young man, don\'t you need to go to the Imperial Palace? They are about to start digging, right?"     

Li Rui frowned in confusion. It took her a moment to understand about what the old physician could be talking about and she asked in a surprise-fiilled voice.     

"They will start digging today itself."     

"Yes"     

The old physician nodded his head and looked at Xi Ying again who had started to put the wet cloth on Xi Ling\'s forehead again.     

"Ying…"     

Li Rui whispered.      

Since they are going to start digging, Xi Ying should be there to manage the situation. However, Xi Ying raised his head to look at her and said firmly     

"Don\'t worry. The Second prince would manage everything. Our son is sick, Rui. Nothing else can be more important than this, right?"     

Li Rui looked at Xi Ying for a moment and then nodded his head with a smile on her lips.      

He was right.      

Their Xiao Ling was sick. Nothing else could be more important than this.            

Xi Ying smiled back at her seeing that their thoughts matched perfectly. He turned back to look at his son and touched his forehead again.     

"Hm…it seemed to be going down now."     

Xi Ling smiled and said      

"Mother\'s medicine is working. Mother is a genius."         

Li Rui chuckled when she heard him say this while the old physician also felt foolish on finding out that his medicine was never needed when Li Rui was here.      

Seeing that he was just being a bone between a family, he left on his own before Xi Ying could throw him out.      

While Xi Ling was now feeling sleepy and fell asleep.

In the Imperial Palace, Zhao Wang Lei was unhappy when he heard the message from Xi Manor. Though his face was emotionless, Zhao Zhang Wei could clearly see that he didn\'t like that Xi Ying didn\'t follow his order.        

He also knew that since Xi Ying was not here now, he would have to manage if something happened.      

Minister Xin and other ministers were looking at the Emperor waiting for his next order. And after a few moments, Zhao Wang Lei finally announced coldly     

"Ask the servants to gather in the garden. The digging will start in a few moments."
