His Rui Chapter 794: Strangers In Xi Manor

It had been just a shichen that Li Rui and Xi Ying had returned from the fair.

They already had a bath and were now inside their room with their son who wished to hear so story from his mother.

Li Rui had a book in her hands as she read the story in her soft voice while Xi Ying was seated on the couch reviewing so docunts.

The recently won neighboring Empire had many problems with it system. It made Xi Ying doubt the brain of the previous Emperor who was now detained by Xin. How could he as an Emperor initiate the war when the people of his Empire were in such a dire state?

Xin would have to give a lot for the betternt of these people and since they were part of Xin, Xin could not ignore their state.

The responsibility of allotting resources for their betternt has fallen on Xi Ying's shoulders.

He was to ensure that in a minimal ti, the people of that region would not have a less prosperous life than the people in other regions of Xin.

The door was knocked and Li Rui stopped reading.

Xi Ying raised his head and said coldly

"Enter."

It was An Ju who entered and bowed her head as she told her master.

"My Lord, there is soone outside who wishes to see Madam urgently."

A frown instantly marred Xi Ying's forehead and his voice was colder than before when he spoke.

"By soone, you an a stranger…do you really think that Madam should et this soone An Ju?"

An Ju bowed her head lower. She had been aware that her master would have such a reaction. However, she could also not ignore that person.

"My Lord…this servant knows that this servant's actions are questionable. However, the person has a relative who doesn't look much well. His relative seed to be on the brink of death and this person requests Madam to treat his relative."

Xi Ying's frown only deepened when he heard these words.

Doubt flickered in his eyes.

How could soone know that his wife could treat sick people! He had made sure that this would not spread much.

However, in such a matter he knew that he could not independently take a decision. He looked at his wife who was already looking at him.

A smile spread on his lips and he asked her gently making him look exactly opposite to how he looked a few monts ago.

Though An Ju had already been used to of seeing such sudden changes, she still couldn't help but feel surprised for a mont though her face was calm.

"What do you want, Rui?"

He asked his wife.

Li Rui looked at Xi Ying and then at An Ju. A mont later, she finally spoke

"An Ju, have them stay in the nearby courtyard. I will be there soon."

An Ju nodded his head and left to do her job.

Li Rui patted Xi Ling's head and asked him to sleep. Xi Ling pouted knowing that the story had not been completed yet but he knew that his mother had so urgent work so like a sensible child he closed his eyes obediently.

Li Rui sighed in relief and imdiately went to the nearby courtyard. Xi Ying didn't feel comfortable leaving her alone so he put down his docunts and accompanied her.

When she stepped inside the room where the person she was to treat was laying down, she saw three people inside the room.

Her eyes stayed on a person for a little longer before she quickly walked forward and took the pulse of the man lying on the bed.

The man had a slightly blue face. It could be said that he was poisoned.

She needed to check what kind of poison it was and then decided how she should cure him.

Li Rui was busy and couldn't waste ti at all seeing the man's state. Liu Lan and Li Hua also ca to help her. She also asked for the old physician to co.

However, unlike Li Rui, Xi Ying was not busy.

He looked at the familiar face coldly and said

"Physician Xuan, co out."

Physician Xuan who was one of the people accompanying the sick man was slightly surprised that Xi Ying still recognized him.

Nonetheless, he stood up to walk outside.

However, Xi Ying looked at the old man who was standing beside him and said coldly

"Bring him as well."

The old man who heard Xi Ying's words didn't want to go out. His whole attention was focused on Li Rui.

He had never thought that the person who would be treating this man even though he was unfamiliar with would be a woman.

Could this woman know acupuncture?

He glared at his disciple as soon as Li Rui entered the room silently questioning him if he was trying to make fun of him.

The disciple of his who was also Physician Xuan ignored the old man's glare. He knew that his Shifu didn't believe that won could also learn a thing like dicine.

Actually, not only his Shifu but everyone in the valley believed so. Even he used to believe the sa until he saw Li Rui treating the old man successfully.

Though he didn't know how exactly she did it, he knew that she used acupuncture.

"I would stay here. I am worried about him."

Shifu who wanted to stay said to Xi Ying with an expression on his face that made him look sincerely worried.

However, Xi Ying was not the one to be moved by anyone other than his wife and he said coldly

"Co out if you don't wish to be dragged out."

The old Shifu was very angry when he heard Xi Ying's words but his disciple knew what he would do he imdiately held his hand to stop him.

Xi Ying noticed this move and his eyes flickered with doubt.

He had been suspicious of this physician Xuan when his shadow guards had brought him to Youxio valley as well. However, at that ti, he had left her alone thinking that the middle-aged man should not be able to do anything as he was not even allowed to see the entire process when Li Rui treated the old master.

However, now it seed that he should have investigated this man rather deeply.

His eyes went to An Ju who imdiately understood what her master was trying to imply and she left to tell An Ping to do so.

While Xi Ying left the room with the old Shifu and Physician Xuan leaving his wife with Li Hua, Liu Lan, and An Shing.
