Hearing this, Fusu's eyes lingered on Zhao Tuo for a moment, then he smiled and said, "Master Zhao, you are too polite. This young master came here on orders. Come and capture him!"
Zhao Tuo sneered and signaled his men to move. "Prince Fusu, you want to arrest me just because of a disagreement. Even if you are the eldest prince of Qin, you can't ignore the laws of Qin and do whatever you want, right?"
Just when the atmosphere was tense, Li Rongrong suddenly said, "Of course there is evidence!"
She had just climbed out of the window while the two were talking, and now she happened to be next to Fusu.
As she handed the things she found in the study to Fusu, Zhao Tuo's face couldn't be darker.
"This! Who are you?"
"You don't need to know. Come here! Capture him!" Fusu was anxious to talk to Li Rongrong. He had lost his patience and gave the order immediately.
The matter had already been decided. Zhao Tuo did not dare to resist and could only be taken down.
If you don't resist now, you can only keep your body intact. If you really resist, you will end up being punished as a group.
Everyone present was well aware of this.
...
...
After Zhao Tuo was arrested, the county government was temporarily taken over by Fusu.
However, Fusu was not in the mood to handle government affairs at the moment, so he threw the matter to Zhang Liang and talked to Li Rongrong.
Fusu pulled Li Rongrong to sit on a carved wooden chair in the tidy back hall of the county government office. The atmosphere between the two was a little weird.
Outside the window, the afterglow of the setting sun shines on the courtyard, giving the ancient building a golden coat.
"Rongrong!"
Fusu still looked a little worried, and his face, which usually always had a gentle smile, was now very serious.
Li Rongrong knew she was in the wrong, so she smiled flatteringly and took Fusu's arm, "Fortunately, Fusu, you arrived in time, otherwise, although Zhao Tuo has been captured, the situation in Longchuan County is far more complicated than we imagined."
Hearing this, Fusu frowned slightly, "You still got involved even though you knew it was complicated. If I had come a step later, you would be in danger today!"
Fusu became angrier and angrier as he spoke. He didn't expect that she would disregard his own safety.
Li Rongrong sensed the reproach in Fusu's tone, and her eyes slightly reddened, but she still raised her head stubbornly and tried to explain: "Fusu, I know this journey is dangerous, but I am trapped in Longchuan County. Without a household registration and a pass, I can't move forward."
"If I tell Zhao Tuo the truth, he has evil ambitions, and the forces behind him are even more complicated. He may not acknowledge the jade pendant and find a reason to beat me to death."
"The only thing I can think of is to sneak into the county government office and contact you using the intercom. There are intercom stations throughout Daqin. As long as not everyone is like Zhao Tuo, the message can be transmitted back naturally."
"Then how could you disregard your own safety and do such a dangerous thing?" Fusu interrupted her, with an unprecedented stern tone, "Do you know how confused I was when I saw you being besieged by Zhao Tuo? I was afraid that if I was a step late, I would never see you again!"
Li Rongrong felt even more guilty after hearing Fusu's words, but she couldn't help feeling a little uncomfortable.
She came to Daqin where she was unfamiliar with the place and had been trapped in Longchuan County of Daqin for almost half a month.
She had no pass and no household registration, so she couldn't even leave the city. The emperor was far away and she felt increasingly insecure.
You can only think of various ways to take risks.
But what about Fusu?
After so many days, I didn't find her, and as soon as I arrived, I blamed her.
Only after she left her hometown did she realize that life in ancient times was not as good as described in novels. There was no internet, no television, no air conditioning, and even no electricity.
When it was pitch black at night, she began to worry whether she had been abandoned in ancient times.
Thinking of this, the tears in her eyes finally fell, and she sobbed, "Do you think I want this? If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have come to Daqin with you!"
Fusu stood up suddenly, his voice trembling, "Rongrong! How could you say such hurtful words!"
"Also, have you ever thought about what would happen to me if something happened to you? What would happen to your family? What about your friends and me? Do you know how miserable we would be?"
Li Rongrong was also frightened by Fusu's excitement. She had never seen Fusu so angry. For a moment, all her excuses were choked in her throat and she could only look at him helplessly.
"Fusu, I..." Li Rongrong tried to speak again, but found that her voice was as small as a mosquito.
She stood up, walked to Fusu, put her hands gently on his shoulders, her eyes full of guilt: "Fusu, listen to me, I know I was wrong, I will be more careful in the future and won't make you worry anymore."
"Besides, I just can't find you! I... this is my first time in Daqin too!"
As she said this, she couldn't help crying again.
Fusu's body shook slightly. He felt the warmth of Li Rongrong's palm. He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and tried to suppress the heartache in his heart.
He immediately said, "I'm sorry, Rongrong."
"I have been too worried about you these days. I will not fail to fulfill my responsibilities and blame you."
He looked at Li Rongrong with deep eyes.
"Rongrong, you know what? What I fear most is losing you, and I'm even more afraid of losing the trust and understanding between us."
"I was wrong this time. I won't do it again. Don't cry." Fusu was heartbroken by her crying and hurried to coax her.
Li Rongrong's eyes flashed with tears. She nodded vigorously, her voice choking with sobs: "I was too reckless this time. I'm sorry."
She choked up and felt annoyed. She was not like this usually. It was all because she became a little lovesick after falling in love.
Fusu gently held Li Rongrong's hand and said softly, "Okay, let Zhang Liang and the others sort out the evidence first, and we will go back as soon as possible. As for you, come with me. I will protect you personally, and then whenever you want to go back, we can go back to modern times, okay?"
Li Rongrong felt the warmth in Fusu's palm, and the uneasiness and fear in her heart gradually dissipated.
After hearing Fusu's words, Li Rongrong finally felt relieved. She nodded gently.
Fusu and Li Rongrong held hands tightly, as if at this moment, their hearts were also closely connected.
There was a warm yet slightly bitter sense of relief in the air.
"Fusu, I actually..." Li Rongrong spoke again, with a hint of hesitation in her voice.
Fusu gently embraced Li Rongrong in his arms, rested his chin on the top of her head, and gently comforted her: "Rongrong, you will never be alone here. No matter what happens, I will be by your side."
"I understand your worries. It's because I didn't give you enough sense of security that made you feel uneasy."
"Okay." At this point, Li Rongrong also adjusted her mood.
Originally, I wanted to come to Daqin, but because I was trapped here for half a month, I felt a little resentful and aggrieved. I felt much better after venting it out together.
