His Rui Chapter 573 Lord Xi Blames Himself

Chapter 573 Lord Xi Blames Himself "What happened to her?"
The voice that was filled with anxiousness sounded in the deathly silent room.
The old physician who had just put his hands on Li Rui's wrist to check her pulse rasied his head to look at Xi Ying with a deadpanned expression on her face.
When Xi Ying this, he frowned in anger and said coldly.
"Why are you looking at this Lord? Check Rui carefully."
The words that he spit out this time only angered the old man more.
He couldn't help but laugh in anger as he said
"I will check if you will let me check. Keep speaking like this and I will ask oke of your shadow guards to throw you out of this room."
The old physician seemed to realize that the mere idea was ridiculous so he changed his words after a little thought.
"Your shadow guards might not do it but that girl Li Hua will of course do it."
In these few days, the old man have seemed to realize that Li Hua seemed to have some resentment towrads Xi Ying inside her heart. Though the maid would act polite on the surface, after all, Xi Ying was still the master of Xi Manor but he had seen her being wary whenever Li Rui was with Xi Ying.
As if she was worried that Xi Ying will harm Li Rui.
He also observed it after many observations and it really seemed to be true.
Once the old physician had asked Li Hua whether she didn't trust Xi Ying with her mistress.
The maid was obviously startled that he knew but then a moment later, she smiled bitterly and said coldly
"Troubles seemed to follow my Young Miss since the day she had met Lord Xi."
And after living in Xi Manor, the old physician couldn't agree more with Li Hua.
It was indeed the truth.
He really liked the girl, Li Rui. Her temperament was very nice.
Though she was very capable in making medicine and antidotes, she didn't seem to be proud at all.
It was only this young man who always roamer around with cold face and put this girl in troubles.
The old physician came out of his trance when he heard another wave of infuriating words from Xi Ying's sharp and merciless mouth.
"Tell me if you are not understanding anything. This Lord will look for some other physician."
The old physicia's lips twitched in anger as he looked at Xi Ying's cold face.
His eyes were of course filled with panic and the old physician knew very well that he was very worried about his wife.
So he controlled his anger and tried to make Xi Ying understand as gentle as he could with the anger that was still roaring inside his heart.
"Young man, you need to remember that this old man is not an expert like your wife who can tell at a glance what happened to the patient. I need to first take her pulse and only then I can say something."
The old physician felt his words were very reasonable and he could've have said it in better way.
Today his amazement regarding Li Rui's talent in medicine has only increased after he had seen her performing acupuncture on her mother.
The girl's hands had been trembling a lot. So in the beginning he had been not sure whether she really knew it or not.
But after a few minutes when she closed her eyes and breathed deeply, she looked completely different when she opened them again.
It was after that he saw her poking needles here and there in her mother's body parts as if she had done it conutless times in her life.
She looked so experienced in it.
He couldn't help but sigh as he started to remember his shifu (master) on seeing Li Rui.
His eyes again had gone damp with moisture but he had blinked it away fearing that he would miss any movement of Li Rui's hands.
The old physician thought that he explained it well to Xi Ying but he couldn't help but have an urge to hit his head with the wall when he heard Xi Ying saying
"Just do it fast."
The old physician took deep breaths and pretended as if Xi Ying was never seated on the other side of the bed...as if his threatening cold gaze was never on him.
After putting his fingers on Li Rui's wrist, he sighed when he took his hand back a few moments later.
"What is it? Is it something serious?"
The old physician didn't dare to delay in telling Xi Ying anymore because Xi Ying looked ready to take out his sword and kill him if he really said that Li Rui was not fine.
With a deep sigh, he told Xi Ying
"She went unconscious because of the exhaustion. In this state, her body needs a lot of rest. Her body must be very tired for her to collapse like this."
Immediately Xi Ying's eyes were filled with pain and distress.
His hand left the sheath of his sword. He blamed himself silently.
Again, he didn't take care of Li Rui properly.
She must be very tired.
The old physician said right.
First she didn't get any sleep the whole night because she was in Xinhe Palace and then after returning to Xi Manor, she spent almost three Shichen running here and there to treat her mother.
Even when she was in Xi Manor in his absence, he was sure that she must have not rested properly otherwise she would not have collapsed like this.
He should have thought of this.
As Xi Ying was indulged in self blame, the old physician continued to speak with sympathy filled eyes.
"Young man, you need to let her rest. The whole night she didn't sleep. And even during the day, she fought with those enemy shadow guards...."
The old physician couldn't complete his words as Xi Ying soon interrupted him and asked coldly.
"Who did she fight with?"
