Wei Fu walked away leisurely with his short legs. Although it was not convenient for outsiders to stay in the palace, Rong Huan had become like this, and the emperor turned a blind eye to it since he was brought back by Wei Fu.
Rong Huan had injuries all over his body except for his face. After he woke up, he drank medicine and ate, so he was much more energetic than when he was in the dungeon.
Earlier, when Wei Fu and the others rescued Rong Huan from the dungeon, Rong Huan lost all his strength and fell into a coma.
He knew that the Rong family wanted to kill him, a dirty man, but it would be bad not to know when he would die, so he kept holding his breath.
After being rescued, I naturally relaxed.
Seeing Wei Fu, he was very grateful, but his current physical condition did not allow him to get up, so he said apologetically: "Princess, I'm sorry, I can't get up and salute you now."
On the way over, Wei Fu simply asked about Rong Huan's physical condition. Knowing that he had suffered a serious injury, he naturally didn't care about it.
"Just lie down and be well. What do you want to help me with?"
Rong Huan knew how he was rescued. Others didn't know, but he knew that he didn't sign any indenture with Wei Fu, so he just wrote one himself.
He presented the indenture to Wei Fu and said sincerely, "My Lord, your kindness is so great that I cannot repay you. From now on, I belong to you and will be at your disposal."
He knew that he deserved to die as a filthy and sinful being, but he did not dare to die.
Wei Fu hurriedly pushed the indenture back: "Oh, that's just a scam, don't take it to heart. Fu'er is still so young, how can I afford to support you~~~"
"You're not a child anymore. You have to learn to support yourself. Fu'er is now being supported by your uncle, aunt, grandmother, and mother. Tingyu and Eunuch Li, who are by Fu'er's side, are still being paid by your grandmother. Fu'er doesn't have the money to pay you!"
She is so young, she can't bear too much.
"I heard you're very talented. Why don't you work for my uncle as an examiner? I think working for my uncle is quite profitable. Look, Lord Rong works for my uncle and supports his entire family."
Rong Huan had never heard of the term "working", but he understood the meaning of working based on the previous and following texts.
He knew that working for the emperor could earn money, but the Rong family did not rely on salaries to support their lives, but there was no need to explain this.
Wei Fu was unwilling to accept him, and he was very disappointed, but he also didn't want to become a burden to Wei Fu.
So he didn't tell Wei Fu that he was notorious now and was afraid that he would never be able to enter the officialdom.
All I could say was, "I will remember your kindness, my lady. When I can protect myself, I will definitely repay you."
Wei Fu wasn't the type to say no when someone asked her to repay him. She nodded happily, "Okay, okay. Then when you get better, you must live a good life, make good money, and then treat Fu Er to a big meal~~~"
Listening to Wei Fu's childish words, looking at her innocent face and pure eyes, Rong Huan couldn't help but smile and nodded heavily.
He was very grateful, grateful to God for letting such a kind-hearted girl appear by his side.
Rong Huan was seriously injured, so Wei Fu said a few words to him and then left.
Naturally, someone reported what happened here to the emperor, and the emperor smiled like an uncle: "My Fu'er is really a little fairy."
Liu Yi also smiled and said, "The princess has a kind heart."
Those twelve women did die because of Rong Huan, and Rong Huan's background was indeed dirty. He took advantage of a child born out of wedlock, so it cannot be said that ignorance is innocent. But the ridiculous thing about the Rong family is that those whose daughters had died did not seek revenge from Young Master Rong or Old Madam Rong, but instead went to Rong Huan.
Rong Huan...isn't he innocent?
What the emperor said in anger yesterday spread quickly, so early in the morning, some family members came to find Wei Fu after the morning court session and asked him to come to their house to help.
Wei Fu didn't argue and nodded in agreement decisively.
As the sun rose, many bad rumors about Wei Fu spread, such as that Wei Fu abused his power to bully others and cause trouble in the Rong family clan.
Some people also said that Wei Fu was a witch, and that a normal child would not be like Wei Fu. Wherever she went, problems would arise in that family.
There were even rumors that Wei Fu had bewitched the royal family and would endanger the country.
These rumors spread like wildfire and soon became known throughout the city.
After Meng Xiaojiu knew about the rumor, he thought about it and asked people to spread the story that Wei Fu could get something out of a stone by picking it up in the gambling stone street. He deliberately asked people to make the matter sound miraculous, making people feel that this should not be an ability that a human should have, especially a five-year-old child.
As soon as these rumors came out, Wei Fu was quickly portrayed as a cute and charming witch in the eyes of the people. No one knew how these rumors spread, but when they reached Tao Zhi's ears, he knew that Wei Fu was a witch who had killed Princess Yahe's daughter, the real royal princess, and had come to the capital pretending to be a princess, intending to destroy the Taisho Dynasty.
Under the instigation of some people, many people even ran to the gate of the palace to demand that the emperor hand over Wei Fu.
There were also a dozen old scholars following here. They didn't think Wei Fu was a demon, because Confucius did not speak of strange and supernatural things. They didn't believe in such things, and they didn't believe what Wei Fu said either.
He thought Wei Fu was a charlatan, so they went to the palace and asked the emperor to teach Wei Fu a lesson and put him under house arrest. They would only release him when Wei Fu stopped talking nonsense.
I think it's not good that Wei Fu caused such a stir in the capital less than a month after returning to Beijing just to care for a little girl.
If Wei Fu wasn't just a little kid, they would have probably called Wei Fu the hot pot witch.
After Tao Zhi learned about these things, he was so angry that he took people to investigate where the rumor came from.
It only took him half a day to trace the cause back to the head of the Rong family and Meng Xiaojiu.
But the people in Prince Ping's Mansion acted quickly. After Prince Ping knew of Meng Xiaojiu's actions, he directly killed the people sent by Meng Xiaojiu and created the illusion of falling into the water. He couldn't go to the house to arrest them, but he had his eyes on Prince Ping's Mansion.
The confident head of the Rong family was not so lucky. He thought his actions were very secretive, but he had the misfortune of meeting Tao Zhi, a nurse who had excellent investigating skills. With conclusive evidence, Tao Zhi immediately ordered someone to arrest the head of the Rong family, and then went to the Dali Temple's prison to bring Lord Rong out.
Yesterday, after Wei Fu told him that Lord Rong was suspected of murdering his wife, he sent someone to dress up as a female ghost to scare Lord Rong at night. Lord Rong was so frightened that he confessed everything.
