Chapter 550 Were Xi Ying and Zhao Zhang Wei Same?

"Who sent you?"
Zhao Zhang Wei's voice was deathly cold as he asked this question to the man who was tied with ropes and was now kneeling on the ground.
Zhao Zhang Wei had one of his knees on the ground as he sat in front of the man.
The man's face was now full of bruises and his clothes were almost torn because of the constant beatings he had received in the last shichen when they were not here.
Standing behind him, Xi Ying looked at his shadow guard An Si who shook his head with a solemn face.
His shadow guard had not found anything related to the man.
Xi Ying frowned deeply as he wondered who would want to attack Zhao Zhang Wei.
Zhao Zhuang Chen's and Qin Wenya's names instantly flashed inside her mind.
Could it be them?
Looking back at the man whom Zhao Zhang Wei was torturing right now in different ways, Xi Ying sighed heavily.
"He won't say anything like this."
He told Zhao Zhang Wei who stopped beating the man and took a moment to glance at Xi Ying.
However, when he looked back at the man who was smiling like a psycho despite being beaten so badly, Zhao Zhang Wei's confidence flattered suddenly.
He pulled the man's hair roughly and slapped him across the face as he said
"Do you think that you can save yourself just like that after harming my qingqing so severely?"
The man continued to laugh, making Zhao Zhang Wei more furious.
His wife's blood still coated Zhao Zhang Wei's hands. He had not washed his hands because he wanted himself to remember that it was he who was responsible for Yi Huiqing's current condition.
"Find his family out. He must have someone who would be related to him. Kill that person if he still refuses to tell the truth."
Zhao Zhang Wei said in an emotionless and cold voice as he remembered his wife's pale face.
Surprise flashed through Xi Ying's eyes when he heard the prince's words. However, when he looked at Zhao Zhang Wei's face that didn't have any emotion, an understanding look flashed through his eyes.
He could understand that Zhao Zhang Wei was not thinking rationally. Even he would have done the same if something like that had happened to Li Rui.
In fact, he would have destroyed the same Emperor who had come to Xinhe Palace, just once, but after the Imperial Physician announced that there was no cure, he patted Zhao Zhang Wei's shoulders sympathetically and then left there.
Yi Family was still there in Xinhe Palace…outside Lantai Courtyard.
Xi Ying remembered Grandfather Yi requesting the Emperor to look for some expert physician. However, very conveniently, the Emperor had told the old man that there was no one who is more expert in such a thing than the Imperial Physicians.
And just like that, the Yi Family had collapsed.
Zhao Wang Lei could have at least assured them that he would try to find someone to cure Yi Huiqing. However, the cruel-hearted Emperor would never do such a thing.
In fact, he had never done anything that he didn't find worthy of wasting his time.
Yi Huiqing's life never mattered to him. It mattered to Zhao Zhang Wei but again, Zhao Zhang Wei never mattered to Zhao Wang Lei and hence he would never bother to look for someone who would be able to cure Yi Huiqing.
Xi Ying had actually already decided that he would bring Li Rui to the Imperial Palace to see Yi Huiqing once.
However, he had not expected that an Imperial Physician would not be able to treat Yi Huiqing at all.
The old physician said that there was no hope. Hearing this, Xi Ying had immediately sent An Shing to Xi Manor.
Now that Li Rui was here to treat Yi Huiqing, he could finally concentrate on trying to find out who exactly was behind all this.
Xi Ying came out of his trance only when he heard a painful groan inside the prison cell that was lightened with only a lamp.
He shook his head when he saw how furiously Zhao Zhang Wei was beating the man. If he let him continue like this then the man would die soon and then they won't have any way to find out who was behind all this.
Xi Ying immediately stepped forward to stop Zhao Zhang Wei when he thought this.
"Your Highness must remember that he is the only person who can help us in finding out whoever is behind all this."
Zhao Zhang Wei's eyes were red and he was ready to punch the man again when Xi Ying spoke this. Hearing Xi Ying's words, he stopped for a moment and then looked at him suddenly
"I don't care. His face is infuriating me. There my wife is lying on the brink of death. I can't bear to have this man breathing here when my wife is in such a state because of him."
Surprise flashed through Xi Ying's eyes.
At this moment, he could finally see the intense feelings that Zhao Zhang Wei has always suppressed for Yi Huiqing.
Even though he had doubted that Zhao Zhang Wei had some kind of feelings for Yi Huiqing, he had never thought that it was so deep.
At this moment, he looked as if he could ruin the whole Empire if it came to save Yi Huiqing.
It made him wonder whether it had always been like this or whether the circumstances had made him finally realize how much that woman who was now on the brink of death actually mattered to him.
Bitterness spread inside Xi Ying's chest suddenly as he started to wonder whether he and Zhao Zhang Wei were the same kind of man.
He also realized just how much Li Rui mattered to him on the day she was standing in front of that arrow.
On the day Li Mei saved her from that arrow, Xi Ying had finally realized that without Li Rui, he was nothing.
Perhaps Zhao Zhang Wei also needed such a push to realize the intensity of his feelings for Yi Huiqing.
