Chapter 109: Compassion
After ordering everything, Xia Chutao hurried back to the lobby of Shou'an Hall to continue to wake the old lady.
She deliberately put on the knee pads that Fu Qingru made for her before she came, not to mention that kneeling like this is indeed not so uncomfortable, at least her knees will not hurt very much on the cold hard floor.
When Xia Chutao just knelt down, he saw Fu Rin in front tilt his head slightly, and his eyes passed over Xia Chutao's body as if he were nothing.
Xia Chutao straightened his clothes and continued to kneel dignified as if nothing had happened.
"I'm so sleepy....."
Xia Chutao thought about this while silently breaking her fingers in her wide sleeves, it stands to reason that such days will be over in three days.
"Little lady, what's wrong with your hand?"
At this time, Xia Chutao heard Bizhu beside him muttering quietly. Although the sound was small, it still fell very clearly into the ears of Xia Chutao.
She looked down and found that the palms of her hands were all covered with scratches, which she hadn't seen before, but now she started to feel pain when she saw it.
At the beginning of summer, when the peach thought about it carefully, it was estimated that it was just scratched when the creeper was pulled apart.
At the beginning of Xia, Tao immediately wrapped his own silk handkerchief in his palm without panic, and then covered it with his sleeve, and said lightly,
"It's okay, I accidentally scratched it when I was taking something just now, just wait for the wake to end and bandage it. The old lady made such a fuss in front of her spirit. ”
"Yes......"
Bizhu was originally worried about Xia Chutao's hand so loudly reminded, but what she didn't expect was that she was directly scolded by Xia Chutao, so she could only tilt her head back aggrievedly and continue to kneel obediently to keep watch.
The whole hall was surrounded by the smoke of incense, and Fu Rin also invited several monks to give the old lady a surplus, and the sound of chanting scriptures came to the ears of Xia Chutao one after another, which made people a little drowsy.
At this time, Xia Chutao's eyes glanced inadvertently, but he saw Cuijuan beside Bai Ling hurriedly entering the lobby, and he didn't know what he said in Bai Ling's ear.
With that, the servant returned to her place as if nothing had happened. The only thing that made Xia Chutao feel strange was that after that, Bai Ling's gaze swept over Xia Chutao's back from time to time, which made Xia Chutao feel uncomfortable.
I don't know what's wrong with this eventful one.
Xia Chutao deliberately turned her head and carefully paid attention to Bai Ling's movements, and found that she whispered to Yin Niang kneeling beside her from time to time, and the two of them didn't know what they were talking about, because of the distance, Xia Chutao couldn't hear clearly.
Xia Chutao saw that Bai Ling didn't make the next move for a long time, that is, he didn't bother to pay attention to her, and continued to bow his head and pray to the old lady.
As soon as the afternoon wake is over, today's work will be finished.
At the beginning of Xia, Tao bared his teeth and stood up with the help of Qiaoyun and Bizhu, and saw that Fu Rin seemed to be planning to leave.
"General!"
At the beginning of summer, Tao saw that Fu Rin had a tendency to leave, so she immediately screamed crisply, and finally stumbled towards Fu Rin.
This leg is really numb on his knees, Xia Chutao feels that this leg grows on his body, but he can't control it, and he walked like a duck on that part of the road just now.
When she came to Fu Rin's side, Xia Chutao couldn't help but stumble, and the whole person fell forward uncontrollably.
Seeing this, Fu Rin quickly grabbed Xia Chutao, who just threw herself into Fu Rin's arms and fell full.
Fu Rin's brows furrowed, and he asked in a deep voice,
"What's so frizzy?"
"I have something to tell you."
Xia Chutao raised her head and looked at Fu Rin a little helplessly, and the smile on the corner of her mouth was also very unnatural.
She naturally wanted to tell Fu Rin about Zhao Shuangzhu, but now she is more like a child who has done something wrong, and she doesn't know how to explain this matter to Fu Rin in front of her.
If Fu Rin knew that he had hidden Zhao Shuangzhu in the General's Mansion, how would he react?
"What's the matter?"
Fu Rin looked condescendingly at Xia Chutao, whose face was very abnormal, her behavior was very abnormal, and Fu Rin had already guessed in his heart that he was afraid that something had happened.
"I ....."
Xia Chutao found that she had been looking for words in her heart for a long time and didn't know how to talk to Fu Rin, so she could only smile.
"The general should come with me."
Fu Rin glanced around, and the people who kept the old lady's spirit walked away one after another, thinking that there was nothing to deal with in a hurry, Fu Rin finally nodded and agreed to Xia Chutao.
"Got it, let's go."
Fu Rin and Xia Chutao walked away one after another, and they didn't see Yin Niang, who was standing in the lobby with Kang'er, with a gloomy look.
"Zishu."
Yin Niang saw that Xia Chutao and Fu Rin had gone out of the door, so she called out to the maid beside her in a faint voice.
The maid immediately responded and respectfully came to Yin Niang's face, bowing slightly,
"The maid is here, what do you have to say?"
Yin Niang's gaze was retracted from the back of Xia Chutao's departure, and then she gave Kang'er in her arms to Zishu.
"You take Kang'er back first, he is estimated to be hungry at the end of the day, let's see if there is anything to eat for him first, don't be hungry."
Zi Shu took Kang'er and nodded.
"Mother, where are you going?"
Such a movement of the hand caused Kang'er, who was originally asleep, to wake up, and couldn't help rubbing his worried eyes to look at Yin Niang in front of him, and asked in such a glutinous voice.
"Kang'er, my mother will go to Sister Bai Ling's place and come back to bring you something delicious, you go back first and listen to Zishu's words, okay?"
Yin Niang said softly to comfort Kang'er, all the tenderness in her eyes was like water.
"Good!"
Kang Er happily agreed, she has always been a very obedient person, and Kang Er did not react much to Yin Niang's words.
Yin Niang saw that Kang'er was so well-behaved, that is, she was relieved, and turned around and left the lobby.
And at the beginning of Xia, Tao took Fu Rin to Zhao Shuangzhu's hiding place, where there was no one at night, and there was a very strange silence around.
Fu Rin frowned and looked around,
"What are you doing here for me?"
Xia Chutao still didn't know how to answer Fu Rin's question, and after laughing a few times, she came to the door of the room and slowly pushed the door open.
"The general will know when he goes in and sees it?"
Seeing Xia Chutao's abnormal, speechless appearance, Fu Rin took back the gaze he put on her, and then walked into this room with no lights behind his back.
"Who?!"
Fu Rin had just stepped in with his front feet, and Xia Chutao heard Zhao Shuangzhu's terrible screams coming from inside the room. Xia Chutao hurriedly took out the fire fold and lit the only oil lamp in this room, and the room lit up in an instant, reflecting Zhao Shuangzhu standing in the corner holding a broken bowl in front of him.
Her face was pale, her whole body was trembling, and she looked like she was in a state of extreme panic.
After Fu Rin saw the person standing in the corner clearly, his face changed, and his pupils shrank suddenly.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, it's me, I'm here with the general."
Xia Chutao looked at the panicked Zhao Shuangzhu, and couldn't care about Fu Rin's solemn face beside him, and immediately stepped forward to snatch the broken bowl piece from Zhao Shuangzhu's hand.
Xia Chutao didn't think about it, she directly tore off a piece of fabric on her body and began to bandage Zhao Shuangzhu's wounds.
Fu Rin squinted at everything in front of him, and he didn't expect that this was what Xia Chutao wanted to show him.
His face was very cold, especially when he looked at Zhao Shuangzhu, his eyes seemed to have ten thousand ice edges in his eyes, as if he wanted to directly nail Zhao Shuangzhu to the wall behind him.
After a while, Fu Rin opened his mouth, and his tone was extremely dissatisfied.
"Peach, why is the princess here?"
Fu Rin asked, Xia Chutao, who was bandaging Zhao Shuangzhu, glanced at Fu Rin and couldn't help but say,
"She's being wanted by the forbidden army, wouldn't the general know about this?"
Finally, Zhao Shuangzhu's wound was bandaged, and Zhao Shuangzhu's emotions were stabilized, Xia Chutao looked directly at Fu Rin's cold gaze.
"You will kill everyone by doing this, do you know that the new emperor is investigating and killing the clan left by the previous emperor?"
Fu Rin felt that Xia Chutao's approach was simply reckless, if it was discovered by the new emperor, the entire general's mansion would be unable to escape the crime.
"You haven't said anything about this in front of me for so long, and I brought her back this morning when I saw her desperate."
"You're just fooling around!"
Fu Rin flicked his sleeves, obviously angry, he pointed at Zhao Shuangzhu and said to Xia Chutao,
"Do you think this is the time for you to show compassion? If the new emperor finds out that she is hiding in the General's Mansion, the entire General's Mansion will bury her! ”
Fu Rin's tone was still so impulsive for the first time, Xia Chutao was inevitably unhappy, and pouted his lips This is the answer,
"You didn't tell me about this, and I didn't know, but by the time I knew, I had already brought people in. I didn't come to you to discuss it because I knew the seriousness of the matter, how can you solve this matter? ”
When Fu Rin heard Xia Chutao say this, he glanced at Zhao Shuangzhu coldly, and said very unceremoniously,
"The only way to save her life is to send her to the forbidden army who are looking for her. Otherwise, hundreds of men, women, and children in the General's Mansion will suffer! ”
