His Rui Chapter 796: Li Rui Comes To Know About The Truth

Chapter 796: Li Rui Comes To Know About The Truth
Inside his study room, Xi Ying looked at An Ping with cold eyes.
"So according to your investigation, the old man and the sick man is completely unrelated to each other."
His cold and sharp voice sounded inside the room.
"Yes, My Lord."
An Ping answered his master calmly.
'Since it was a complete lie, their purpose must not be something good.'
As this thought flashed in his mind, Xi Ying immediately stood up from the chair he was seated on and left the study room in large strides.
When he remembered that his wife was treating this person leaving her rest aside, Xi Ying's eyes were as cold as ice.
He found out that she had already left when he reached the room where that sick man was kept. This somewhat calmed Xi Ying.
And then his eyes fell on the two people inside the room with the sick man.
It was Physician Xuan and the old man who had begged him to enter the room. His intentions must not be well.
He should not have let him enter the room.
However, Xi Ying thought that he would not do another mistake by leaving him alive. He was aware of how special his wife's skills were.
Compared to the medicinal knowledge of the Imperial Physician, his wife's medicinal knowledge could save a person from the brink of death. As much as he felt proud of her because of this, he was worried that it would create some trouble for her.
Human nature was like this.
Every human was selfish to save their loved ones and live together. At the same time, if the wish is not fulfilled, it could create a form of the monstrous evil that could turn to harm his wife who had actually never thought bad of others.
Looking at the two men who had formed such a lie to enter his manor, Xi Ying thought that in the end, what he had thought was true.
"Physician Xuan"
'ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ No(ve) l Bi n',
He called the physician's name with a cold smile on his lips and the latter knew immediately that something was wrong. And sure enough, when Xi Ying asked him
"Are you hiding something from this Lord? This Lord gives you one chance to come out and say the truth. Another lie and the consequences would be too bad for you …"
Xi Ying's eyes went to the old man and his cold smile widened as he finished his words
"And your dear friend as well."
Physician Xuan looked calm. He was silently thinking about what he should do. He was aware of Xi Ying's capability so he silently contemplated if the latter was really capable of harming him if he didn't say the truth.
On the other hand, the old Shifu was furious when he heard Xi Ying's threat…especially when the latter looked at him threateningly.
He, the great Shifu of the Yantun valley, had never been spoken so rudely by anyone let alone being threatened with any consequences.
It was another thing that he begged Xi Ying some time ago but it was all out of desperation. He wanted to see acupuncture being performed and hence he couldn't waste his time by indulging in a fight with the young prime minister.
However, now…
His lips twitched furiously as he looked at Xi Ying, he suddenly had a cold smile on his lips as he said
"We lied. This man is not my nephew. I poisoned him and brought him here in your manor for her to treat him. So what? What can you do?"
At this moment, the old shifu looked cold, aloof, and completely merciless as he mocked Xi Ying in his own way.
What could even Xi Ying do to him?
His disciple standing by his side sighed while Xi Ying raised his eyebrows as he looked at the changed old man.
He was sure that the old man was not an ordinary man, however, that was what made him sure to dispose of him completely so that he could not come near his wife again.
Just when Xi Ying was about to summon his shadow guards, he felt someone's presence and closed his mouth.
A moment later, his wife's shocked voice fell into his ears.
"You poisoned him?"
Xi Ying glanced at the old man who was looking behind him with a slightly pale face and then calmly.
He turned around and walked to his wife to help cross the slightly raised floor on the door.
Li Rui held his hand and stepped inside the room.
'',
Her face was calm but her eyes were cold as she looked at the old man who looked equally calm.
"Why did you poison him and then bring him here to get treated?"
Li Rui thought that there must be something wrong with the old man's mind.
The old man was silent for a moment before he opened his mouth and said
"I am not from here."
Physician Xuan who heard his shifu's words had his eyes wide with shock as he realized that his master was going to tell the truth.
However, could he really stop the old man if he wanted to do it?
With another sigh escaping his lips, he could only shut his mouth and curse the old man for being crazy.
Remembering how his master had told him a few moments ago that he wanted to accept Li Rui as his disciple, he somewhat understood things.
He was sure of what was going on inside the old man's mind. His shifu thinks that Li Rui would accompany them happily.
In fact, he himself had thought the same. The reputation of Yantun valley was so high that being a member of it would make a person think that he must have committed some great deed in his previous life.
"We are from Yantun valley."
The old shifu's eyes shone with pride when he said these words and he looked at Li Rui to see her reaction.
Even Physician Xuan raised his head proudly when he heard his master's words.
However, both of them were confused when they didn't see any change in Li Rui's expression.
In fact, Physician Xuan thought that he saw a flicker of coldness in Li Rui's eyes.
How could a woman be this cold!
Physician Xuan thought and dismissed his previous thought.
Nonetheless, the old Shifu continued proudly.
"I came to know about your skills, Li Rui and hence I came here to check if you were really skilled or if it was just rumored. I must say that you left me surprised with your skills."
After another moment of pause, the old man offered Li Rui in an arrogant tone.
"Seeing your talent, I wish to accept you as my disciple. You will go to Yantun valley with me and explore more with my other disciples. We will leave today itself. So, you should take whatever is necessary for you to take with you."
