Chapter 50, Apologies
It was only after walking into the inner hall that the prime minister stopped, took the lead in pressing Luo Qi on the wooden chair, and then turned around and sat down in his place.
Then, he put his fist to his mouth, cleared his throat, and looked at Ruilin and Xiaoman, who were following behind Luo Qi, with some meaning.
The meaning of this couldn't be more obvious, it was clear that he wanted the two of them to leave quickly.
But the two of them froze in place as if they hadn't seen anything.
Xiaoman subconsciously wanted to retire at first, after all, he had been in the Prime Minister's Mansion for a long time, and he had a subconscious reaction, which was to obey the Prime Minister's orders.
But when she saw Ruilin, who was indifferent beside her, she immediately had confidence, and she restrained the subconscious actions in her heart and stayed.
As for Ruilin, he himself is extremely dissatisfied with the prime minister, in short, the prime minister is very unappetizing to him.
Anyway, he is not from the Prime Minister's Mansion, and he can be regarded as having the support of the National Teacher behind him, no matter how angry the Prime Minister is, he will not dare to touch him casually.
Therefore, Ruilin deliberately ignored the prime minister and stood motionless behind Luo Qi, like a statue.
Luo Qi couldn't help but laugh when he saw these two people doing this.
She secretly observed the prime minister's expression again, and found that the other party's face had already collapsed, and she was even a little angry, but she couldn't do anything with these two people, so she could only endure it.
Luo Qi pretended to cough twice, and said to the prime minister: "Daddy, what's the matter, you ask?"
The prime minister choked directly, the question he wanted to ask, how embarrassed to say it in front of people, especially in front of the national teacher.
If these questions he asked were passed on to the ears of the national teacher, and he accidentally angered the other party, wouldn't it be troublesome?
He didn't care much about Xiao Man's words, but this guard ......
In the prime minister's impression, this should be the guard of the national teacher, and he has been with him for many years, so he is definitely not a character to mess with.
The prime minister thought about this, pulled the corners of his mouth helplessly, and asked tentatively at Ruilin:
"I've prepared a place to rest, and the Rui guards should be tired, why don't you go and take a rest?"
The prime minister gave Ruilin a step, and at the same time gave himself a step.
Just when he thought that the other party would readily agree, Ruilin suddenly shook his head and said righteously:
"Your Excellency's words are wrong, I am ordered by the national teacher to stay by Miss Luo's side every step of the way, how can I go to be lazy and rest? As a guard, I can't easily shout tired. ”
Looking at this profound and righteous remark, if it weren't for Luo Qi to understand what Ruilin was like on weekdays, he would have been deceived and moved at this time.
And the prime minister was undoubtedly slapped in the face directly, and he was embarrassed for a while, and he didn't know how to react.
If he was angry, he couldn't just pull this guard down and punish him.
But if that's it, where else can he put his old face?
Seeing that the prime minister had suffered a dumb loss, Luo Qi laughed twice in his heart, and took the initiative to open his mouth to relieve the siege:
"Daddy, Rui's guard is not the same as the guard next to him, you don't have to worry about him, let's talk about our problem, Rui's guard is not tired, but my daughter is really tired, I want to go back to rest early." ”
"Good, good. When the prime minister heard this, he quickly picked up Luo Qi's words and followed her.
But after that, the prime minister was stunned again, and he really didn't know how to speak.
He wasn't there enough to say those things in front of these individuals.
After being stunned for a while, he finally gave up, sighed, waved his hand at these people again and again, and said:
"Qi'er, you go back and rest first. ”
"Yes, Daddy. When Luo Qi heard this, he hurriedly responded, stood up and wanted to leave.
"Wait. The prime minister suddenly said again: "If you have time to go see Luo Ying, she is seriously ill and said that she wants to apologize to you." ”
Hearing this, Luo Qi was stunned.
Luo Ying wants to apologize to her?
But she still reacted, saluted the prime minister, and then left the hall.
As soon as he took two steps out, Xiao Man posted it and whispered to Luo Qi:
"Miss, that Luo Ying is a little strange and sudden, Miss, you'd better not go. ”
Luo Qi listened and nodded approvingly.
She didn't go home for a day, and when she saw Luo Ying the day before, the other party was still alive, and he could even attack her with his eyes.
Why did she become seriously ill in a blink of an eye, and what did she say to apologize to her personally?
When things are impermanent, there must be demons.
However, she can't guess what medicine Luo Ying sells in the gourd now, if she is free, I'm afraid she still has to take a look.
Ruilin on the side also vaguely heard something, so he asked, "Luo Ying, but the one I met in the yamen that day?"
Xiao Man nodded hurriedly.
"In my opinion, this second lady's mind is not simple, I vaguely remember that when I came to inform the prime minister that day, the second lady was on the side, looking weaker, but not very like a serious illness. Ruilin fell into deep thought.
"Did you see her that day?" Luo Qi quickly asked when he heard this.
Ruilin nodded a little confused. He did see the second lady that day, and he was by the prime minister's side.
"Let's go. Luo Qi made a decisive decision and said, "Go to Luo Ying, I'll see my good sister." ”
When Xiao Man heard this, he immediately became anxious and wanted to stop: "Miss, you're not that...... Knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, do you prefer to go to the tiger mountains?"
"But if you don't go, how do you know if what's hidden in the mountain is a real tiger or a cloth tiger?" Luo Qi smiled and said to Xiao Man.
Ruilin on the side agreed at this time: "Indeed, Miss Luo doesn't have to worry, although I have injuries on my body, my foundation is still there, and it is more than enough to protect the two of you in front of that second lady." ”
Luo Qi patted Ruilin's shoulder with great appreciation, and turned directly towards Luo Ying's courtyard.
Although Xiaoman was reluctant to go, but now that her own young ladies have gone, she is worried that there will be problems, so she can only keep up.
Luo Qi actually didn't plan to see Luo Ying at first. Because the meaning of Luo Ying's words is clearly profound.
But as soon as she heard what Ruilin said, she had some doubts and speculations in her heart.
She now feels that the rumors are like this, and I am afraid that they are inseparable from her, a "good sister".
But Luo Ying is the least likely to do this.
This contradiction aroused her strong curiosity.
Regardless of whether it had anything to do with it or not, and in order to find some clues, she had to go to Luo Ying to have a look.
After a while, several people arrived at their destination.
At this time, Luo Ying's courtyard has long lost its former prosperity and liveliness, but is full of defeat and desolation that cannot be concealed.
