His Rui

Chapter 204 - Going To See Li Na



Chapter 204 – Going To See Li Na

Today was the last day of the banquet.

Li Rui woke up early in the morning.

Last night, she had again felt Xi Ying leaving her alone in the bed and leaving the room.

As much as she wanted to go and see what he does after leaving the room, she knew that she can't do that, at least not now. 

She can't reveal that she knew his true intentions when she doesn't know anything about his plans.

So she continued to lie on the bed.

It was surprising that as soon as Xi Ying left, sleep came over her soon.

The next morning, when she got up she still didn't see Xi Ying anywhere but she didn't ask anything from An Ju about him.

Instead, she got ready in hurry and then exited her room.

"My Lady."

An Ju bowed her head when she saw Li Rui.

"I want to go to Yao Yue hall to see my sister." She told An Ju.

She saw hesitation on An Ju's face after she finished her words. A moment later, she said

"You can accompany me. I don't think your Master will find anything wrong in this."

An Ju's contemplated over her words. She still remembered how her master didn't even scold her when Lady Li said that him that it was not her fault.

After this incident, An Ju had concluded inside her heart.

Only by serving and pleasing Lady Li with dedication, she can save herself from her Master's cruel punishment.

In the end, she can't stop Lady Li from going anywhere. Her master had never given her this right. He had just asked her not to leave Lady Li alone. 

So after a few moments of hesitation, she nodded her head and accompanied Li Rui to Yao Yue hall.

In the Yao Yue hall, the Imperial guards stopped Li Rui outside the entrance of the hall.

When An Ju told them the purpose of their visit, one of them went inside and the other asked An Ju and Li Rui to wait outside.

Just a few moments had passed when the Imperial guard standing at the entrance casually looked inside the hall and saw Imperial Physician Xu running towards him.

His eyes widened and he immediately ran to Imperial Physician Xu thinking that something must have gone wrong for the old Physician to run in hurry like this.

"Imperial Physician Xu, what…"

However, the Imperial guard paused when he saw Imperial physician Xu pushing him away after giving him a condescending look. 

With a confused face, he saw Imperial Physician Xu running past him towards the entrance.

Imperial Physician Xu had always looked very healthy despite his old age but at this moment the Imperial guard could not help but think that the old physician was now getting old and his mind was not in the right place.

When he looked back at the front, he saw his fellow guard walking towards him with some green paste dropping down from his hair and face. With a bowl in his hand, the Imperial guard looked very awful.

"What happened to you?"

The Imperial guard asked the awful looking guard as soon as the latter neared him.

The awful looking guard sighed heavily and said

"This is done by Imperial Physician Xu. I just told him that Lady Li was outside and she wants to see her sister. He suddenly stood up from his chair and threw the medicinal paste he was working on."

"Oh…"

The Imperial guard pitied his fellow guard and advised him

"Don't clean yourself."

The awful looking guard smiled bitterly and said

"I know."

Last year, Imperial Physician Xu had thrown his medicinal paste on one of the guards just like this in his excitement of discovering something new.

After that, Imperial Physician Xu went to bring paper and pen to write something down and when he came back he didn't find the guard at the same spot.

When he found the guard, the guard had cleaned himself.

Imperial Physician Xu had been so furious that he took the matter to the Emperor complaining that because of the guard he had lost his new discovered medicinal paste that could treat the scars left by burns.

The Emperor was also left helpless by Imperial Physician Xu and dismissed the Imperial guard from his job.   

Even after that, Imperial Physician would be displeased at the sight of every other Imperial guard.

The guards looked at each other with bitter smiles and walked back to the entrance.

However, the sight they saw outside the Yao Yue hall left them shocked.

The always grumpy old physician was looking at Lady Li with flattering eyes.

They saw Imperial Physician Xu walking towards them with Lady Li. While walking past them, Imperial Physician Xu looked at them condescendingly again and whispered 

"Do you even know who you have stopped for so long outside the Yao Yue hall?"

The guards looked confused by Imperial Physician Xu's words and looked at each other while shaking their heads.

"She is Prime Minister Xi's wife."

"Hmph..if Lord Xi came to know about your daring acts then this old man doesn't whether both of you will be able to survive under his wrath or not."

The Imperial guards gulped in fear.

Satisfied with their pale faces, Imperial Physician Xu eagerly followed Li Rui inside Yao Yue hall with some other purposes hidden inside his heart.

He looked so excited that his whole face was red as he flattered Li Rui with whatever came to his mind.

'Lady Li is very beautiful.'

Every girl feels happy when someone calls her beautiful. However, he saw that Li Rui glanced at him faintly and mumbled a soft and slow 'thanks'.

Imperial Physician Xu smiled but thought that he didn't flatter enough. So he continued

'Lady Li is very intelligent.'

'Lady Li is so skilled in medicine.'

Imperial Physician Xu said many things that now even An Ju was starting to feel irritated by his voice. However looking at his old age, she suppressed her irritation.

Few moments later, they reached outside the room Li Na was kept inside and An Ju finally released a sigh of relief.
