After Xiao Rong finished thinking, he saw Ah Shu still standing there, so he urged him, "Go out and see if there are any oranges for sale."
Ah Shu had also forgotten about this matter. Hearing this, he hurried out. But before he left, Xiao Rong added, "Go check what Zhang Biezhi is doing when you come back."
Ash: “…Oh.”
Speaking of Zhang Biezhi, Ashu still felt a little embarrassed.
Because Zhang Biezhi had said bad things about Xiao Rong before, Ashu turned around and saw Xiao Rong and repeated all those bad things to him. However, Xiao Rong was busy at that time and could not spare the time to deal with the matter. When he had time later, he was too lazy to argue with Zhang Biezhi.
Although Xiao Rong didn't know how stupid Zhang Biezhi was in history, the fact that he could speak ill of him in front of his servants showed that this man was too stupid. In Xiao Rong's view, he and Zhang Biezhi were almost two species, so why should he be angry with another creature? It's like if a skunk farted in front of you, you can't really hold it against the skunk.
Xiao Rong thought very thoroughly, but Ashu was not as magnanimous as him. Even though Zhang Biezhi was protecting them all the way, Ashu still couldn't like him.
There was no one on the street after the curfew. Ashu found the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper found someone he knew to help him buy a basket of oranges. At that time, the oranges were not very sweet, but very sour. This kind of fruit is loved by ordinary people, but the nobles don't seem to eat it.
But this shopkeeper was also one of the common people. Ordinary nobles would never come to his shop. Xiao Rong was the most senior guest he had ever entertained in his life. His understanding of nobles was limited to hearsay. But today he encountered a real one, so he remembered that nobles loved to eat oranges. ...
Carrying the basket upstairs, thinking of what Xiao Rong said, Ashu walked to Zhang Biezhi's door and knocked on the door like Xiao Rong usually did. After the door opened, he handed two oranges to Zhang Biezhi.
Zhang Biezhi saw with his own eyes that he still had a whole basket in his hand: "..."
Forget it, the relationship between master and servant is a bit complicated. He should just be obedient as his sister said. It’s just a few days. When he goes back, no one will be able to control him anymore.
Pursing his lips, he grabbed the two oranges, mumbled a thank you, and slammed the door again.
Not expecting him to thank him, Ashu was stunned for a moment, then snorted and went back to Xiao Rong with his head raised.
Even if a hated person says thank you, it still sounds hated.
Xiao Rong took the basket handed over by Ashu and picked one that looked good. He was about to peel the skin when Ashu took it over. His hands and feet were very nimble. Seeing this, Xiao Rong did not snatch it from him.
He asked Shu what was going on there, but Shu didn't know what he was asking about, so he could only tell the truth: "He stayed in the room. As for what he was doing in there, I don't know."
Xiao Rong blinked, "Why do I feel like he's been a little quiet along the way?"
Without saying a word, he followed him silently. Even if something he was curious about appeared on the street, he would just sit on the horse and stare at it. When his neck could no longer turn, he would twist his neck and look forward again. ... This was somewhat inconsistent with the image of the devil he had heard before.
Ah Shu also noticed this when he heard this. He tilted his head and said, "That's true. Last time when we went to Xin'an, he kept his mouth shut all the way. But this time he said nothing—"
He stretched out the last word, and then suddenly said in surprise: "Master Lang, he is not going to harm you!"
Xiao Rong: “…”
This guess is really a bit outrageous. Zhang Biezhi still has a bright future. How could he not want to live so soon?
There is still a glimmer of hope for Zhang Biezhi if he betrays Qu Yunmie. If he is killed here, Zhang Biezhi will become the next Li Xiuheng. Before he is caught, he can only live the life of a mole. ...
Xiao Rong frowned. It happened that Ah Shu had just peeled the oranges. Xiao Rong took the orange segments with a few white lines. He squeezed them gently and decided to solve Zhang Biezhi's problem first. "Call him over. I want to ask him something."
Ashu was confused, not knowing if it was his illusion. The master seemed very unhappy with Zhang Biezhi's obedience, but he didn't dare to ask more. He could only go out and call for help silently.
After a while, Zhang Biezhi listened to Xiao Rong's questions and felt that he had never suffered as much injustice in his life as he had in the past two days.
Even though I don't cause trouble, you still have complaints. Why are you so annoying?
However, Xiao Rong could not see Zhang Biezhi's grievance, and he sternly told him: "You are the same as you are in Jinling. What did you say about me in front of Ah Shu last time? Didn't you look down on me at that time? Why do you listen to me now?"
Zhang Biezhi: “…”
I look down on you now too!
I'm not listening to you, I just, I just don't dare to mess with you!
His face was frozen. He didn't understand what Xiao Rong meant. What did he mean by "you will remain the same as before when you arrive in Jinling"? He almost forgot what he was like before.
This time Xiao Rong was really angry. Looking at his almost demented look, Xiao Rong was so furious. He thought he had brought a natural helper, but he didn't expect to bring trouble to himself.
But they all came, and it was impossible to change them temporarily. Xiao Rong tried his luck and had to patiently tell him: "After arriving in Jinling, you still have to behave like you usually do, a not very smart, very arrogant, and unclear about the situation and your own status as the deputy general of the Zhenbei Army. When Jinling people salute you, you will return the salute, but your posture is not proper and your behavior is perfunctory; when Jinling people joke with you, you belittle them and elevate the status of warriors, telling them that you think warriors are the strongest in the world; when Jinling people invite me to a banquet, you loudly mock them, letting them know that you actually think highly of me and that you were forced to come on this mission. In fact, you don't want to come to protect me at all."
Zhang Biezhi: “…………”
Xiao Rong was right, he was like this usually. He didn't need to pretend for anything Xiao Rong said because these were his true thoughts.
But his expression became more and more stiff as he looked at Xiao Rong.
He didn't feel it when he did it, but when Xiao Rong said it, he suddenly realized that his behavior was a bit stupid, as if he was making a fool of himself... Is he really like this usually?
Impossible!!!
