"Wife, I can't agree to this. Qiluo has not fulfilled her duties, and she deserves to be punished. I know you have a kind heart, but there is no order without rules." Han Yu's words were relatively soft, but his meaning clearly left no room for doubt. It would be strange if Su Wenyue agreed.
"What rules or not? Qiluo is my person, and the rule is to listen to me. Her duty is to do things for me. I won't listen to your crooked logic. Anyway, you are not allowed to take Qiluo away, otherwise I will never let you go!" Su Wenyue also has her own principles. Since she said that she would take responsibility for this matter, she would not go back on her word.
The two people had a conflict over a principled issue. Han Yu saw his wife's rare arrogant look, which was both lovable and hateful. He felt helpless the most. If his wife was reasonable, he could give her countless reasons to convince her, but she refused to be reasonable...
Han Yu did not argue with his wife about this. He had seen his wife being stubborn before, and it would not be appropriate to hurt their relationship over this. However, Han Yu would not give up just like that. On issues of principle, especially when it came to his wife's personal safety, there was no possibility of compromise. He turned his gaze to Qiluo who was standing aside.
"Wife, how about this? Since we have conflicting opinions and we both have our own principles, let Qiluo speak for herself. If she also thinks she is right, then I will not pursue the matter any further." Han Yuhua said this. Her seemingly calm words contained a lot of things. Just a glance at her made Qiluo tremble with fear.
Su Wenyue was ready to have a good fight with Han Yu, but she didn't expect Han Yu to change the battlefield and point the spearhead at Qiluo. Su Wenyue cursed Han Yu inwardly for being despicable. Qiluo dared not go against Han Yu's wishes: "This doesn't count. You are cheating. How dare Qiluo not listen to you?"
"Yeah, you're the only one who dares to do that. If it were someone else, I would have dealt with them long ago." Han Yu habitually touched Su Wenyue's head and changed the subject calmly.
But who is Su Wenyue? Although she had been fooled by Han Yu before, that was definitely only a small part of the time. There was a slight difference in IQ. Most of the time, Su Wenyue pretended to be confused even though she knew the truth. Now that she had made up her mind, she naturally would not be fooled by Han Yu.
"Don't change the subject. Qiluo is mine now. Only I can order her around. No one else is allowed to interfere, not even you!"
Seeing that the two masters almost had a quarrel over her matter, Qiluo was grateful to the lady for speaking up for her. Not to mention that it was her fault in the first place, she couldn't let the feelings between the masters be hurt because of her. Moreover, she also knew the master's temper. If he really wanted to punish her, she would not be able to escape. It would be better for her to admit her mistake and get more forgiveness. So she knelt on the ground with a plop.
"Thank you, Madam, for thinking highly of me. However, this matter is indeed my fault. I am willing to accept the punishment!"
"Go." Han Yu nodded, satisfied with Qiluo's performance. Otherwise, he would be a little troubled by his wife's tough attitude and would not be able to deal with Qiluo like this.
"No..." Before Su Wenyue could finish her words, Qiluo had already gone out and glared at Han Yu fiercely. She would not give up if Han Yu didn't give her an explanation.
Han Yu understood what his wife meant and touched his nose: "Wife, you have to be reasonable. Qiluo violated the rules I set and will definitely be punished. I didn't intend to let her stay with you anymore. She can't even do the most basic things well. For your sake, I will forgive her this time and just punish her slightly. Let's take a step back, how about it?"
What else can she do? Su Wenyue knew that if she insisted, things would definitely remain deadlocked. It was good enough that Han Yu could take a step back, not to mention that it was just a slight punishment, and she would compensate Qiluo later. She didn't know that the slight punishment Han Yu mentioned was not that simple.
After Han Yu recruited Zhai Li and others, he formed his own underground force, which was similar to the secret guards of the aristocratic families. Qi Luo belonged to this category. Because of the nature of the secret guards, the rules here were destined to be much darker and crueler than those of ordinary servants, which was simply unimaginable for ordinary people.
Seeing his wife like this, Han Yu knew that he had coaxed her. As for how she understood it, that was her business and he would never remind her. He didn't want her to know too much about those dark and cruel things.
Now that they knew from Qiluo where Liu Xiu was staying, Su Wenyue and Han Yu decided to pick him up and transfer him immediately. The court was now investigating very strictly. Although Qiluo said that the doctor was reliable, it would be more appropriate to take him to their own territory for recuperation. Or, depending on Liu Xiu's own wishes, they could help him contact Deng Chen.
"Don't worry, wife. I'll have someone take care of this matter. Don't worry about what happens next. Just have some peace of mind and sleep for a while, okay?"
After coaxing his wife to sleep, Han Yu tucked the quilt into her hands and tiptoed out. As soon as he came out, his originally gentle face turned stern, with a bit of coldness and cruelty. Han Yu didn't just want to blame Qiluo. Qiluo was understandable, as he knew his wife's temper. Once she made a decision, no one could change it. That's why he secretly sent people to follow her. Unexpectedly, it was still of no use.
"I failed to protect the lady, please punish me, sir." Qi Feng did not argue. No matter what the truth was, it was a fact that he failed to protect the lady. He understood this on the first day he joined the Dark Guard.
"Tell me, the reason?" Although Han Yu was very angry, he did not lose his mind. Qi Feng was both capable and loyal. If he did not complete his assignment, there must be a reason.
Qi Feng then told what happened today one by one, and emphasized the person who followed in the dark: "Although I didn't find any trace, I had a hunch that Madam seemed to have noticed something wrong, but neither of them found the mysterious person's trace. I didn't know whether the mysterious person was an enemy or a friend, so I didn't dare to act rashly. This gave others an opportunity to take advantage of me."
Han Yu knew there must be a reason, but he didn't expect it to be like this. His face looked solemn and serious.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
The people sent by Han Yu found the place but did not see Liu Xiu. "Doctor, where is the injured person?"
"That young man, I applied medicine for him, and then he left after he woke up. But with such serious injuries, how could he move freely? But I tried my best to stop him, but I was not sure. He had to leave, as if he had some concerns, and there was nothing I could do." The doctor said helplessly, as if he was really trying hard to fulfill his duties. There was still some worry on his face, but a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, but he lowered his head so that no one noticed.
