His Rui Chapter 674 A Vow Made By Youxio

Chapter 674 A Vow Made By Youxio
Outside the tent, so many shadow guards were kneeling.
Li Rui was startled while Xi Ying looked equally confused. Both of them looked at Gu Li who was standing in the front.
"Senior Brother…"
Li Rui whispered.
However, before she could complete her words, she saw Gu Li smiling and then kneeling by Rong Ting's side who was already kneeling.
Li Rui was startled and unconsciously took a step back.
She couldn't understand at all what was going on.
"Father, what are they doing?"
Xi Ling who was looking at this scene with wide black eyes asked his father. Then suddenly remembering something he spoke again.
"Father, are they doing this for you?"
Xi Ying held his son's hand somehow understanding what these people were doing and shook his head. Looking at his startled wife, his heart was soft and filled with pride.
"They are kneeling for you mother."
He said proudly while Xi Ling also smiled seeing his father smiling though he was still a little confused.
Sure enough, soon Xi Ying heard Gu Li speaking
"The eldest daughter of General of this Empire, Li Rui, Youxio will always stay grateful towards you and your family. Whether it is Xi Clan or Li Clan, whoever will need Youxio in the future, we shall serve regardless of what are the circumstances. Youxio vows for this."
"We all vow."
All others followed him in chorus.
Looking at them and hearing their words, Li Rui had wide eyes.
A moment later, she stepped forward and said to Gu Li.
"Senior Brother, Please get up."
Gu Li listened to her obediently. After he had stood up, Li Rui looked at others and said helplessly.
"All brothers can get up."
However, when no one stood up to her words, she looked at Gu Li helplessly who shrugged his shoulders and said
"They are showing their gratefulness to you. We all are grateful to you otherwise we didn't know what we would have done."
Li Rui shook her head as she said seriously.
"If that is the thing, then everyone should also remember that Rui's life was also saved by Youxio. Senior Brother, you had saved Rui so there is nothing you and all others owe Rui. Rui has lived the most peaceful days of her childhood with all of you. Please don't stain those beautiful days with these words of gratefulness."
Gu Li's eyes softened seeing her sincere eyes and hearing her calm voice. Her heart was as clean as her clean black eyes.
They say right that the eyes are the mirror of one's heart.
He asked his shadow guards to stand up. However, the vow was made already and they were going to follow it.
"Prime Minister Xi, if you don't mind can I send a few of my shadow guards with you? I would have come myself but there are things to do here."
The last few words, Gu Li said while looking at Li Rui who smiled in the assurance that there was nothing wrong with this.
She knew that Gu Li had to send those people back to their normal lives. Fortunately, those people didn't know anything about Youxio and they have never seen his face so there was not much problem for Youxio even if any one of them tried to complain afterward.
However, there was still a lot of work to do.
Xi Ying also nodded his head in acknowledgment as he didn't see any problem in this.
Li Rui went to see the old master once again and came out after a short while.
Finally, they left Youxio valley after this.
To some distance, Xi Ying had to fly with Li Rui and Xi Ling with An Si while Li Hua with An Ju. Afterward, they could use the carriages.
This time, they had another carriage that was full of the physicians that had been brought to Youxio valley to treat the old master.
The journey was of almost three days. This time, Xi Ying asked the coachmen to go slower than before because he didn't want Li Rui to feel uncomfortable.
They would rest at the inn at night and then during the day, they would travel. During the whole ride, Xi Ying took care of Li Rui's needs.
However, he was worried when on the third day, she started to vomit out everything, she ate.
Worried, he called the old physician to check Li Rui.
"It might be the motion sickness."
The old physician said grimly as he looked at Li Rui's pale face.
Xi Ying's face also didn't look good and he ordered that they will stay in the same place until Rui will recover.
Li Rui didn't want to stop but Xi Ying didn't hear her this time.
An Si immediately arranged the place to stay in an Inn.
Almost four to five rooms were booked, out of which one belonged to Rui, Xi Ying, and their son while others were for physicians and Li Hua who stayed with An Ju.
Xi Ying was worried when Li Rui couldn't eat anything.
Frustrated, he called the old physician again and threatened him to find some cure unless he wanted to lose his life. The old physician was also helpless.
He looked at Li Rui who had already tried her best to assure Xi Ying that it was normal.
She sent the old physician out of the room. After the latter had left, she held Xi Ying's hand and said softly.
"Ying, I want to sleep."
Xi Ying sighed understanding that she was trying to save the old man.
However, he still listened to her and obediently lay on the bed beside her.
Li Rui smiled when she saw the frown on his forehead.
She stroked his forehead with her fingers and tried to imitate him just as he says to her.
"Don't frown."
Xi Ying's lips twitched as he tried to control his smile. He covered her eyes and said
"Sleep. You need to eat a lot after waking up. Just tell me what you want to eat, and I will arrange it immediately."
Li Rui nodded her head and slept obediently.
Fortunately, when she woke up, she could finally eat something without vomiting.
Xi Ying was relieved and they set out for the Imperial City the next morning itself.
Hence, the three days journey was slowly stretched to four days.
