"What were you thinking about today in the tunnel before you hit your head?"
Su Qian struggled a bit, because she subconsciously didn't want to talk about this matter, but she couldn't resist him asking again, "What were you thinking about in the tunnel today?"
She tried her best to control herself, but still couldn't help but say, "I'm wondering...was that thing done by...Jiang...Xuewei's people?"
Lu Huan was stunned. He didn't expect that she was thinking about Jiang Xuewei. He thought that Su Qian regretted it and was thinking about Yan Xuanye, but it turned out not to be the case.
He pressed, "What's the matter?"
"That time at Mingxiang... Pavilion, the man who tried to insult my innocence... was he sent by Jiang Xuewei...?"
After hearing this, Lu Huan was stunned for a few seconds, with a hint of confusion and puzzlement in his eyes, and then he became angry because of shock.
Jiang Xuewei, how dare she?
When did it all start? She actually harbored ill will towards Su Zhao so early on, even sending people to insult her innocence! ?
No wonder Doctor Li from Yulutang said she seemed to be frightened.
So, this is the reason.
Lu Huan asked again, "Then why don't you want to tell me?"
Su Qian was silent for a moment and said, "He won't help me."
Because what she heard was not a human voice, and because she was dizzy and the voices she heard were intermittent, Su Qian did not realize that it was Lu Huan who was speaking.
In answering this question, she used the word "he".
After hearing this, Lu Huan's expression suddenly changed. It was hard to tell what he was thinking from his eyes, and he looked a little tired.
After a long while, he finally spoke in a low voice, "I wouldn't do it before, but now... I definitely will."
He slowly stood up and walked to the incense burner, opened the lid of the incense burner, and poured a cup of cold tea into it.
After finishing all this, he came to Su Qian's bed again, stretched out his big hand and gently smoothed her frown, "I originally had a few more things I wanted to ask you, but I'll leave it at that today."
"This incense is quite strong. Look at you... you can't even sleep well. But it doesn't matter. You didn't smell it for long. I have already put it out."
The side effect of the incense is drowsiness. After waking up, I don’t remember anything, I just feel that I had a good sleep.
"Have a good sleep, Su Zhao."
…
After coming out of Liuting Pavilion, he returned to the front hall and called Zhong Cang and Zitan.
"Zitan, from now on you will only be responsible for protecting Su Zhao. At dawn, go to the matchmaker and buy a few servants to serve her. This courtyard cannot be run without a maid."
Zhong Cang opened his eyes wide in shock when he heard this!
You know, the general never had a personal maid by his side!
There was a girl named Hongxiu in the past, but she only did some trivial things like serving tea and water beside Lu Huan, and was not a personal maid. Since she violated the rules set by Lu Huan, Lu Huan personally ordered her hands to be chopped off, and she died soon after.
Later, he also advised Lu Huan to choose a few maids to serve him personally, but he refused.
Apart from these, there was only an elderly wet nurse, Mama Liao, who was brought as a dowry by the general's biological mother. She had been serving the general for many years and was an old hand.
There is no other woman besides this.
Now, he not only brought Su Qian back to the mansion, but also bought a group of maids to take care of her.
Not taking care of myself, but taking care of Su Qian.
"Tell Zhong Wei to go to the capital and fetch Madam Liao to serve Su Zhao. The maids bought from outside may not suit her taste, so have Madam Liao train them and send them to serve her. You will have to take care of her for a few days.
Also… if you buy someone from outside, you need to find out their backgrounds one by one. They must be clean. Also… it’s best if they are without parents or anyone at home.”
Lu Huan instructed Zitan one by one. He thought that although Su Qian was not a spoiled child, he could not let her suffer. What Yan Xuanye could give her, he could also give her.
Zitan: "Yes, I will remember this."
Lu Huan waved his hand and said, "Then you can go down and rest for a while. When it's completely light, you can go buy a maid."
"yes."
"Zhongcang."
Zhong Cang: "I'm here."
"The news about Su Zhao must not leak out, especially not to Shangjing. Otherwise... they will definitely find a way to use Su Zhao to threaten Yan Xuanye."
"Tell the brothers to keep their mouths shut. No matter what you see or hear, don't spread it."
"Also, the security of this mansion is now your responsibility. You must take good care of Su Zhao's safety, and pay special attention to Yan Xuanye's movements. Report any problems immediately."
Zhong Cang nodded heavily: "Yes, I understand."
Lu Huan: "There's one more thing. Tell Zhong Wei and have him do it after he brings Mother Liao over."
Zhong Cang was a little confused, "What's the matter?"
Lu Huan leaned close to him and whispered: "..."
…
"Remember?"
Zhong Cang was a little surprised, but still replied, "I remember."
Lu Huan nodded, "Tell him to handle it properly. If it is verified to be true, bring that person back to me. I will deal with him personally."
Zhong Cang: "Yes, I will tell Zhong Wei about it."
How could he not understand? After all, this was the first time the general had brought a woman back. This woman must have held a great weight in the general's heart. How could he not care?
"General, you've been busy for a while now. Go and rest early."
