In Xie Lan's disdainful eyes, she saw a bit of pity.
Who is he pitying? Or is she Li Zheng?
Somewhat unaccustomed to his sudden depth, Tao Yaoyao was about to change the subject when Chang Geng hurried over and whispered a few words into Xie Lan's ear before Xie Lan turned around and left.
Tao Yaoyao looked at his back and began to think about what he meant by what he just said, but the original owner had never seen Li Zheng before. After she became her, she saw him for the first time yesterday. She had no idea what he had done before. I don’t understand, and I haven’t been able to think deeply about his words since then.
"We can find someone to inquire about it." Qiu Gui suggested, "The Crown Prince was a famous person in Kyoto City a few years ago. His affairs should be easy to inquire about."
Qiu Gui took the initiative to invite her, but Tao Yaoyao didn't want to wait for her at the inn, so she prepared to walk around.
Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year. On this day of every month, the girls from Chunfeng Tower will sing and dance at the entrance of Chunfeng Tower. At this time, Chunfeng Huan is extremely crowded everywhere.
Tao Yaoyao saw such a scene for the first time since she came to this world. She felt novel and ran over to join in the fun.
When she was looking happy, a man and a woman squeezed in next to her. The man was average-looking, but he wanted to show that he was rich.
I saw that his belt was made of blood jade, the buckles on his clothes were actually made of gold, and even the jade crown on his head was priceless.
The girl next to him was pretty, but she seemed a little afraid of the man next to her. She had already looked at the man no less than ten times after standing here for a short time.
Tao Yaoyao felt strange and looked at them twice. Who knew that the man thought Tao Yaoyao had any intentions towards her, so he glanced at her with an extremely contemptuous look, and then said condescendingly, "Although you are good-looking, But this young master is not someone you can climb up to, so please respect yourself, girl."
puff!
I have seen narcissistic people, but I have never seen such narcissistic people.
Tao Yaoyao's laughter annoyed the man, "Why are you laughing?"
"It's nothing, I just think it's funny." Tao Yaoyao's explanation not only did not make the man feel better, because when she was speaking, she glanced at him, and the man felt that Tao Yaoyao was laughing at him, so he looked at her with an unhappy look. He said to her, "You are indeed laughing at me, young master. Someone..."
"Master Zhou, forget it, this is just a misunderstanding."
The woman was obviously afraid of him, but she stood up when he wanted someone to bully Tao Yaoyao, so Tao Yaoyao looked at her again.
When the woman saw this, she quickly winked at her and signaled her to leave quickly.
But who is Tao Yaoyao? I will not offend others unless they offend me. If someone offends me, I will punish them. What's more, after this girl saved her, this man will definitely not let her go.
She doesn't want others to bear her own troubles.
"Let me go, young master." The man pushed the woman away. The woman couldn't stand still for a moment and was about to fall on the man next to her. Tao Yaoyao was so frightened that she reached out and gave her a hand.
In this era, if a man holds hands with a woman, his innocence will be ruined. If the woman really falls into the arms of the man next to her, her sin will be great.
Fortunately, she took action in time and prevented the tragedy from happening. When the woman breathed her last, the man was unhappy.
"You actually seduced other men in front of my young master. Okay, I must let everyone see your true face today."
The man suddenly went crazy, pulled the woman and shouted loudly. There were already a lot of people around here. The man shouted, and the people around him left and looked towards them.
It’s a joke, no matter how good the show in Chunfeng Tower is, is it better to watch the young master of the Zhou family bullying others?
It was also at this time that Tao Yaoyao learned the identities of the two people. The man was Zhou Yu, the only son of Zhou Ping, the Minister of War, and the woman was Liu Ruhua, the concubine of a fifth-rank official in the Ministry of War.
A month ago, when Liu Ruhua went shopping with her sisters, she was spotted by Zhou Yu, who was teasing a woman on the street. She fell in love at first sight. After returning home, she asked Mrs. Zhou to go to the Liu family to propose marriage.
Mrs. Zhou didn't like the Liu family's identity at first, and when she heard that her son was interested in a concubine, she disapproved of the marriage even more. But Mrs. Zhou is a good mother who loves her son.
Although she didn't want Liu Ruhua to marry into the Zhou family, but if Zhou Yu just took a concubine... So the next day, the Zhou family used a sedan to carry Liu Ruhua in through the back door.
Zhou Yu returned to her true nature after getting Liu Ruhua. She would play with women outside and would beat and scold her when she came home. The neighbors near the Zhou family knew about this. There was some distance between the Tao family and the Zhou family, and the original The Lord doesn’t like to go out, and he doesn’t like to listen to these gossips, so he doesn’t know about this.
It's a pity that such a beautiful flower was eaten by a dog.
When Tao Yaoyao shook her head, she saw Zhou Yu raising his hand to hit someone, so she quickly stepped forward and grabbed his arm, then when he wasn't paying attention, she sprinkled some powder on him and let him go.
"So you are Master Zhou. You see, the little girl is blind to the truth. Just now, the little girl really didn't laugh at Mr. Zhou. On the contrary, she felt that Mr. Zhou was very handsome and worthy of everyone."
Tao Yaoyao praised people for free, but her compliments sounded so strange to everyone, but Zhou Yu looked happy with them.
He was in a better mood and no longer wanted to hit people.
Tao Yaoyao took the opportunity to pull Liu Ruhua up.
At this time, the new dance music of Chunfeng Tower started. Zhou Yu was busy watching the performance, and saw Liu Ruhua crying and feeling unlucky, "Go back quickly, don't be embarrassed here."
Liu Ruhua was injured and his arm was still bleeding. Zhou Yu seemed unable to see it. Tao Yaoyao suppressed her anger and pulled Liu Ruhua out of the crowd and went to the nearest medical center.
When they arrived at the door, Liu Ruhua refused to go in no matter what. Seeing this, Tao Yaoyao frowned, "If you don't even cherish yourself, who do you expect to pity you?"
Liu Ruhua looked at her in surprise.
Tao Yaoyao ignored her, and after seeing that she was not struggling, she took him to Baishan Hall. After the shopkeeper of Baishan Hall recognized Tao Yaoyao, he immediately greeted her warmly.
"Miracle doctor, you haven't been here for some time. You don't even know it. Since you became famous in our shop, many patients have come here because of your reputation. However, I sent people to the house several times, but I didn't see the girl."
The shopkeeper has to go to the house to find her? Why didn't she know?
Tao Yaoyao frowned, and when she was about to say something, she saw Liu Ruhua's uneasy look on her face, so she quickly swallowed what she was about to say and ordered the boy to get the medicine box at the back.
There is a room in Baishan Hall specially reserved for Tao Yaoyao's medical treatment. Although she has never come, the shopkeeper has always reserved it for her.
Now Tao Yaoyao brought Liu Ruhua in. When she was getting things from the medicine box, she told Liu Ruhua, "Take off your clothes."
Liu Ruhua was surprised for a moment, then stood still.
Tao Yaoyao took the medicinal powder and gauze and turned around to see this scene, "What's wrong?"
"I just suffered a little skin injury, so I don't actually need to take off my clothes..."
"I heard that Zhou Yu often takes it out on you, and you resisted coming to the medical center just now. You are probably afraid that the people in the medical center will know about this." Tao Yaoyao sat down and asked him curiously, "Zhou Yu doesn't even care. What do you care about your reputation?”
"I..." Liu Ruhua was embarrassed. He opened his mouth several times and then swallowed it.
Tao Yaoyao actually doesn't like to meddle in other people's affairs, and he doesn't want to get involved in other people's housework. He just asked because he felt sorry for her. Since she didn't want to say it, forget it.
"Sit down and lift the clothes off your arms."
Liu Ruhua did as she was told, and then watched quietly as Tao Yaoyao applied the medicine to her. Tao Yaoyao's tone was a little harsh when he spoke, but he was extremely patient when applying the medicine.
Although she didn't go out much in the Zhou family, she had heard a lot about her in the past few days. To be honest, she really envied her and admired her.
She certainly wouldn't have done as well as she did if she were in her situation.
Such a powerful person actually helped her today without any hesitation to offend Zhou Yu. This was the first time since she was a child that someone was so kind to her, and she even took her to give her medicine...
Liu Ruhua was so moved that her eyes turned red unknowingly.
After Tao Yaoyao noticed something was wrong, she raised her head and glanced at her. Seeing this, she was a little confused and said, "Did I hurt you?"
"No, Miss Tao's technique is very gentle and doesn't hurt at all."
Liar, if it doesn't hurt, why is she crying? It's not like she was moved because of the medicine she gave her.
Tao Yaoyao looked up and saw her smiling at her. The smile looked very strange. For a moment, Tao Yaoyao felt more and more confused, so he took her hand and felt her pulse.
"Why are you in such bad health?"
After Tao Yaoyao came here, she helped many people to see doctors. Liu Ruhua was in the worst physical condition among them. It can be said that her current health is maintained, but in fact she is already ruined on the inside.
Maybe one day...
Liu Ruhua knew her situation very well. She didn't expect Tao Yaoyao to check her pulse. By the time she reacted, it was already too late.
She lowered her head and pretended to adjust her clothes, but in fact her expression was changing rapidly.
"If you don't want to say it, forget it. No one has a secret. But as I said, remember to feel sorry for yourself, otherwise..."
The words that followed were so unpleasant that Tao Yaoyao couldn't say anything while looking at this well-behaved woman.
"Does Zhou Yu dress so...ceremoniously every time he goes out?"
Logically speaking, a young man who is the Minister of War should not show off his wealth.
Master Zhou, doesn’t he care?
People nowadays are so willful.
"It is true that he has always been like this, but this is not surprising. The girl may not know that Mrs. Zhou's natal family is an imperial merchant."
So that's it.
"It's getting late. I have to go back. Miss Tao, thank you for today." Liu Ruhua thanked her again and again before turning around and leaving.
Tao Yaoyao couldn't help but sigh as she looked at her back that was about to fall down if the wind blew.
The steward came in and saw this, and said with a smile, "The miracle doctor is kind-hearted, I understand, but you'd better stay out of the Zhou family's troubles this time."
"Why?" Tao Yaoyao frowned. This was at the feet of the Emperor. What happened to him, a mere first-class official, that he could still be greater than His Majesty?
"The Zhou family has a backer."
