Xiao Pu shouted loudly: "Come here, tie him up!"
"Yes! Deputy General Xiao!"
"I know I was wrong, please let me go..."
Xiao Pu said to Fu Tong'er, "Miss, you're frightened. Just now, I saw an empty house over there. It's a separate courtyard, not very big..."
"It's okay. I don't need a very big one. As long as Qiao'er and I can live together, it's fine. But how much is it? I don't have much money, so it can't be too expensive..."
Xiao Pu looked at the girl next to Fu Tong'er and nodded.
The man from before had been tied up.
Xiao Pu said: "It's not expensive, one tael of silver for a year's rent."
"One tael of silver for a year's rent?" Fu Tong'er asked in surprise, "Is there such a good deal?"
Xiao Pu nodded, however, what he thought in his heart was: Ten taels a month, girl, our Jiu Ye has paid for you for three years!
Xiao Pu continued, "Master Jiu heard that you wanted to rent a house, so he asked his subordinates to inquire about it. I happened to meet you and just took a look. The house is fine and the lighting is good."
The point is, the master has ordered us to stay close to the Prince's Palace! Xiao Pu didn't dare to say this.
"Really? Thank you so much."
Xiaopu sighed inwardly.
The master began to coax the little girl...
Then he continued, "My master said that if you encounter any obstacles while carrying things, you can use the servants in my house."
"This..." Fu Tong'er didn't want to trouble Master Jiu, but when she thought about moving out of Prince Hui's mansion, she was bound to be stopped by that scoundrel Prince Hui. After thinking for a moment, she said, "That would be troublesome."
"Young lady, you may address me as Xiao Pu. I will hand this shameless fellow over to Master Jiu first, and will lead the men to Prince Hui's mansion shortly. Young lady, would you not like to visit the house?"
"No need. Since Vice Admiral Xiao has already reviewed it, there must be no problem."
Xiao Pu nodded slightly, jumped on his horse and said, "I will go report first." He then ordered two soldiers, "Take this scoundrel away!" "Yes!"
Prince Chun's Mansion
The brush is held between the fingertips...a small statue is pulled out of the book.
Lu Zhenzhi looked at the figure in the painting. Her black hair was draped over her shoulders, with a few cinnabar ornaments, her mother's sandalwood hairpin, and soft, flowing hair...
As he looked, a barely perceptible smile appeared on Lu Zhenzhi's lips.
Unexpectedly, the hairpin that my mother wore was a perfect match for that girl. Especially when she was wrapped in her dark fox fur coat and the girl's satin jacket underneath, she was walking slowly by, which was simply unforgettable.
It was as if the girl belonged to him, Lu Zhen, so much so that he hadn't slept all night, sitting at his desk reading all night. At this moment, there was a knock on the door: "Master Jiu."
The person who came was Lieutenant General Xiao.
Lu Zhenzhi put the small portrait back into the book and put it in the drawer. He sat down, picked up the book again, and said in a low voice: "Come in!"
Xiaopu pushed open the door and brought in the rascal who had previously molested Fu Tong'er and her maid Qiao'er.
Lu Zhenzhi looked up and saw this kind of person entering the palace, feeling unhappy. He said calmly: "Is everything settled?"
Xiao Pu reported back: "Master Jiu, the housing has been found, but this man, my subordinates saw him molesting the girl..." "Huh?" The rising tone and furrowed brows made the air around them tense.
Lu Zhenzhi asked: "What's going on?"
Xiao Pu reported: "This man wants a girl to accompany him for drinking, and..."
Xiaopu was still wondering whether he should tell the girl about the man grabbing her arm.
Once it is revealed, the man will be crippled if not dead.
"what else!"
"He even grabbed the girl's arm."
The air was filled with the smell of death.
The scoundrel on the ground was so frightened that his body was shaking, his hands trembling, and he kept saying: "Master Jiu, I didn't know she was your woman, please let me go, please let me go, Master Jiu..."
Another period of dead silence.
Lu Zhenzhi put down the book, turned his head, and his bloodshot eyes were filled with unfathomable depths.
Although there was no shouting or fierce fighting, the air around them was tense at this moment.
How dare you touch her...!
Even a man as powerful as Lu Zhenzhi treated her with caution.
What a fool! How dare he grab her hand! Those eyes must have seen it too...
Thinking of this, Lu Zhenzhi clenched his fists...
"Cut off the limbs. Gouge out the eyes! Do it cleanly!"
The ruffian collapsed to the ground in fear.
"Yes! Master Jiu! By the way, Master Jiu, the young lady agreed to have the servants of our palace come over to help her move."
Lu Zhenzhi rubbed his brows. He hadn't slept the entire night before because he was thinking about someone. Now, the thought of her being teased by this thing in front of him...
There was a dull ache in my temple.
"Master Jiu, I really won't dare to do that again. I didn't know that girl was yours. I won't dare to do that again."
Humph, you even dare to ask her to drink with you...!
Lu Zhenzhi rubbed his temples, closed his eyes, and pointed his finger: "Prepare a jar of wine, let him drink enough before leaving!"
"Go"? Is it "die"?
The man on the ground cried uncontrollably: "Master Jiu, spare my life!"
Lu Zhenzhi thought over and over again about what Xiao Pu had said... How dare he ask her to drink with him! What a fool!
After calming down, Jiu Ye rubbed his temples and pointed his finger, saying, "Xiao Pu, watch her while she moves. Don't let King Hui bother her!"
"Yes! Master Jiu!"
Lu Zhenzhi stood up, his eyes bloodshot...
