Chapter 205 Adopted Daughter
Lu Chaochao slept very well.
Better than ever.
The little guy sat up, rubbing his eyes in confusion with his chubby fists.
After rubbing his eyes, Lu Chaochao found the environment unfamiliar and said, "Am I sleepwalking?"
Yu Shu walked in carrying a copper basin, his eyes red.
Last night, one of the maids who froze to death was from Lu Chaochao's courtyard, and she had a very good relationship with her.
"This is General Rong's mansion. It will take about three days to move back." Something big happened in the mansion, and General Rong was worried, so he wanted to select the guards himself.
Lu Chaochao suddenly remembered what happened last night.
The little face turned pale in an instant.
"Mother, mother!" Lu Chaochao jumped off the bed anxiously.
Yu Shu hurriedly stopped her and held her in his arms: "Madam is fine, General Rong has already asked the imperial physician to see her and prescribed some tranquilizers. Don't be afraid, everything is over."
When Yu Shu put shoes and socks on Lu Chaochao, she found that her feet were severely frostbitten.
She didn't ask, but her eyes were hot and she lowered her head, applying medicine and wiping tears.
"Apply the medicine more often to avoid frostbite." The tender, thick feet were tiny and turned red from the cold.
Yu Shu felt distressed.
Lu Chaochao nodded obediently: "Okay, thank you Sister Yushu." She still spoke in a childish voice.
There is no trace of the killer look from yesterday.
Yu Shu put on soft winter shoes for her and personally carried her to the next room.
"Do you want to see Princess Zhaoyang?" The imperial physician suddenly asked as he was about to leave.
Xu's eyes changed slightly, and she opened her arms to take Chaochao: "Forget it, Chaochao should be fine. She is shy." She smiled and declined.
After the imperial physician left, Xu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Has Chao Chao woken up?"
Lu Chaochao hummed dejectedly and leaned on Xu's shoulder: "Fortunately, mother is okay." At this moment, she could only vaguely remember what happened before she knocked on the door.
She couldn't remember clearly what happened after knocking on the door.
"Was it Uncle Rong who saved us?" she asked naively.
Xu was startled. Rong Che just walked in and said with a smile, "Yes, Uncle Rong came back last night. From now on, Uncle Rong will protect you and will not let you get hurt again."
The prince followed behind Rong Che, and his heart finally settled down when he saw how alive Lu Chaozhao was.
"Brother Prince, why are your hands so cold?" Lu Chaochao looked concerned.
The prince did not say that he was overly worried, he just laughed and said that he was not wearing enough.
The prince would put his hand next to her nose from time to time, confirming again and again that she was breathing before he felt relieved.
"Take it away, it's blocking my nose." Lu Chaochao became increasingly annoyed.
Why do you always touch other people's noses?
"Chao Chao has gotten up and hasn't had breakfast yet. Go eat something first." The prince ordered Yu Shu to carry Lu Chao Chao out.
Wait for Lu Chaochao to leave.
Rong Che then said, "The people last night came from the South Country. After investigation, it was found that many people came out of the South Country, and it seemed that they were looking for someone." Rong Che secretly glanced at Yunniang.
"And Chao Chao...she seemed to have forgotten what happened last night."
The prince knew about the affair between Rong Che and Xu, and Rong Che would know it sooner or later, so the prince never hid it from Rong Che.
After a moment's silence, he said, "If you are too careless, you will lose control when you are strongly stimulated. Madam Xu should have seen it with her own eyes last night, right?"
Xu nodded with a pale face.
The Chao Chao at that time was not like the Chao Chao.
Instead, it seems like a god who dominates everything.
No thoughts of my own, no joys, sorrows, anger or happiness of my own.
"Don't worry, Madam Xu. Chao Chao's heart will soon return to its original source. She will be her complete self." After a thousand years of national worship, she will be completely reborn.
Xu cried with joy: "Your Highness, are you serious?"
"Really." The prince smiled. This was also the reason why he was protecting Bei Zhao.
After the prince confirmed Lu Chaochao's condition, he returned to the palace early to report.
The emperor was worried about Lu Chaochao's situation. Besides, his father and his mother had a big fight last night.
The prince was not very reassured.
When the Xu family heard the news, they rushed over right after the court session without even changing into their official uniforms.
Xu Yiting looked at Xu carefully, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she was safe and sound.
"If I had known earlier, I would have forced you to move back to the Xu family. But you were really scared. Your parents also clamored to come and see you." The eldest sister-in-law helped her into the house and sat her down.
"Fortunately, General Rong is next door, otherwise something terrible would have happened."
No one publicized Lu Chaochao's murder.
After all, she was only two years old, and the murderer turned her into thousands of pieces. It was too horrifying and would inevitably cause everyone to panic about Princess Zhaoyang.
After everyone entered.
General Rong knew that the Xu family had something to discuss, so he closed the door and waited outside.
The eldest sister-in-law nodded slightly: "Lu Yuanze, you are really not as good as General Rong in character."
"You really scared me to death."
"Everyone in my family almost fainted after hearing the news. You just got divorced and escaped from the devil's den, how could you encounter such a thing again! When the abbot of Huguo Temple comes back, I will definitely take you to pray for your safety and success."
"I have been hit by such an unexpected disaster."
Xu shook her head gently: "It can't be considered an unprovoked disaster."
"It's all because of me. Please, sister-in-law, go get some money from the Lu family account later. Give some subsidies to the families that were harmed this time. Just consider it as a token of your appreciation."
Just as the eldest sister-in-law was about to ask, she saw Xu take out a jade pendant with a dragon pattern from her bosom.
Just now, she asked Chao Chao for it.
The sister-in-law was startled and looked up at Xu Yiting.
Xu Yiting's eyes darkened slightly: "What does this mean?"
Xu smiled bitterly, her eyes full of bitterness: "Brother, are you still going to hide this from me at this time?"
"That person last night came for this jade pendant."
"I am not of the Xu family bloodline, right?" Xu looked at her eldest brother with tears in her eyes.
She has lived in the Xu family for more than ten years. Her parents and three brothers love her very much. She never doubted her identity.
Xu Yiting sat dejectedly on the chair.
His gaze was distant, as if lost in memories of the past.
"We picked you up."
"At that time, Dad wasn't even the Grand Tutor yet."
"When I found you, it was a winter night, and it was snowing hard just like last night."
"At that time, my mother had just given birth to my third brother. In her dreams, she always thought she heard the cry of a baby..."
"She stood up to check countless times, but the crying stopped abruptly. It was like she was hallucinating..."
"The mother was very anxious and restless."
"She always felt that something was calling her. It was still dark and snowing heavily, but she insisted on going out to take a look."
"We were just playing naughty kids, so we got into the carriage with our mother."
"Perhaps, it is destined."
"Mother followed the guidance in her heart and walked through the city. The group was shivering with cold, and the blizzard made it impossible to see the road clearly. They walked further and further away..."
"When we were about to leave the city, we heard a weak cry."
"The crying was extremely weak, like that of a kitten, and it became weaker and weaker. So we jumped out of the car and searched in the blizzard." Xu Yiting sighed.
I thought this matter would be buried deep in my heart.
But he didn't expect that it would bring disaster to his sister.
Last night, I almost lost my life.
