Rui is a palace girl of the state of Qin and Sei Kyou's first wife.

Appearance

Rui has long strawberry blonde hair, with two braids framing her face. She has full lips and large, crystal blue eyes. The Princess of the Northeast always is seen wearing clothes fitting of that title, such as long silk robes and fur collars. She also dons jewels across her forehead and wears a crown of gold and diamonds.

Personality

Rui loved Sei Kyou and is shown to blush whenever he was mentioned. She is shown to be very protective of him, as, in the past, she threw stones at Ei Sei because 'he was his enemy'. She is also arrogant as she calls Shou Bun Kun a Moustache guy despite his position in the state. After the death of her beloved husband, she succeeded him as the leader of his faction and gained a large degree of determination to ensure his death wasn't in vain and to defeat the one responsible for setting up his demise, Ryo Fui.

History

Rui was betrothed to Sei Kyou at a young age. Initially, the two did not get along as she stated he had an unpleasant face while he was angered by her insolence. On the other hand, he was secretly entranced by her, and they eventually developed feelings for each other. She became so loyal that she would often throw rocks at his perceived enemy, Sei whenever they meet.

Story

Sei Kyou's Rebellion Arc

While not seen, Rui and Sei Kyou's other retainers were against his alliance with Ketsu Shi and his faction. She pled with Sei Kyou to stop his ambitions for the throne, but she was instead imprisoned.

Conspiracy in the Court Arc

Rui was first shown blushing when a messenger notified her that Sei Kyou was coming with his carriage. She was very surprised when she sees Sei and Shou Bun Kun instead of Sei Kyou. She greeted them and mentioned she overheard Shou Bun Kun stating his suspicions of Sei Kyou. In response, she proudly declared that her husband was dedicating everything to the prosperity and safety of the kingdom, and it would be unthinkable for him to turn on Sei as even if he still wanted to, both factions still have to worry about Ryo Fui.

Shortly afterward, she returned to Tonryuu for her grandmother's eightieth birthday taking a gift from Sei Kyou with her. When a Zhao army appeared at the gates, she let Ho Kaku lead her away from where he imprisoned her.

She sat in her prison until Sei Kyou arrived to rescue her with a few other soldiers, and they ran away through the hidden corridors of Tonryuu. She left Sei Kyou behind to hold off the troops and ran through the corridor to safety. She emerged in front of Shin and soldiers of the Hi Shin Unit and begged them to help Sei Kyou. Though they ran as fast as they could, they didn't reach him in time. She listened to Sei Kyou's last words to Shin, then embraced him as he died in her arms.

State of Ai Arc

Rui was present in You when the official coronation of Ei Sei began. She begins crying at the ceremony, wishing that Sei Kyou was there with her but is suddenly startled after hearing his voice. She, Ri Shi, Sai Taku, and Bi Ki the Queen Mother are then later present for the debate between Sei and Ryo Fui.
