"Just leave!"
Mingyue felt full of grievances. Brother Ajiu, who loved her the most in the past, not only misunderstood her, but also treated her so roughly. She was a golden girl and was born with pride, how could she endure it.
She glanced bitterly into the tent and walked away very quickly, followed by the maid behind her.
"Fifth brother!"
Rong Jiu was about to return to the tent when she was stopped by a voice.
"I heard that crazy girl Mingyue is coming here menacingly. Is she here to cause trouble again?"
Gu Shiyu was still wearing a red robe and looked around as he spoke.
"Is this the end of the trouble?"
Mingyue in front of her was walking in a hurry and staggered. The maid behind her scrambled to help her.
"What a crazy girl, please be careful in front of others. If the censor hears it, you will be blamed for your uncle's lax management of the family!"
Rong Jiu scolded lightly.
"Okay, next time I'll call her princess!"
Gu Shiyu said he was taught, but in his heart he didn't care.
"How's your room going?"
After chatting for most of the table, I almost forgot the purpose of my visit and couldn't help but pat my head.
"Did you just come from Zixi?"
The third cousin only focused on practicing martial arts and was not worried about anything else. He didn't know anything about the back house, so how could he know whether there was a connection between the two houses.
"Yes, I heard from Brother Pei last time that Fifth Brother fell in love with a beautiful maid. I saw her yesterday and she is indeed very good-looking, but she looks a bit too delicate. I'm afraid it will be broken if she touches it..."
What do you mean if it's going to break if you touch it? Rong Jiu's face turned dark.
"But Brother Pei said, that maid knows how to break the rope and hide. She is brave and resourceful, which is quite lovable!"
Gu Shiyu didn't notice the change in his fifth brother's face at all. After he finished speaking, he looked at Rong Jiu's gloomy face and said with concern: "Fifth brother took care of the maid last night and didn't sleep well. Why does he look so bad!"
"You went to see Wei Yunqi yesterday. Didn't you beat him up?"
Rong Jiu didn't want to discuss her expression, so she changed the topic.
"That's right, you made Xingyun look at me. I was pulled back before I kicked you enough. If this beast dares to hurt us, he should be given a hard slap!"
When Wei Yunqi was mentioned, Gu Shiyu looked angry and wanted to beat that man again.
Xingyun next to him smiled bitterly in his heart when he heard this. Last night, Master Wei Er had two ribs broken by kicks. If he hadn't hugged the young master's waist tightly and used the master's words to bluff others, he would probably have died. human life.
"By the way, keep an eye on those people yesterday, don't let anything happen to them!"
Yesterday, there were not only crazy wolves in the woods, but also hidden arrows.
Those who were hiding behind their backs were later arrested.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived!"
Just as Gu Shiyu was about to pat his chest and promise, the camp suddenly became lively.
"Shi Yu, go and hand those people over to His Highness the Crown Prince!"
"Okay! Your Highness will definitely make the decision for us!"
After Gu Shiyu heard this, he immediately ran out.
"Young Master, the few people His Royal Highness placed in Zuoweiwei yesterday were also taken by us... Will Your Highness be suspicious?"
Xingyun looked at the missing person in front of him and asked worriedly.
"His suspicions have never ceased, and those people are still alive, so he can't sit still. We solved many people yesterday, and it's not just those few!"
Rong Jiu scoffed, then turned around, and Xingyun hurriedly stepped forward and opened the curtain.
"Go and make arrangements, we'll go back home today!"
As soon as one foot stepped into the tent, Rong Jiu gave another instruction.
"yes!"
…
When Taoye woke up in a daze from pain, she was already on the carriage going back.
The body underneath was very soft, no longer the thorny thorns.
A familiar figure sat in front of him, and the quiet and light agarwood lingered in his nose.
"woke up?"
A deep voice sounded in the carriage.
"Fifth Young Master!"
Taoye's vision gradually became clearer and she shouted weakly.
"do not move!"
Just as he was about to push himself up despite the pain, he fell into a familiar embrace.
Regardless of the fact that her hands were still injured, Taoye hugged Jin's waist and rubbed her face against the uneven cloud pattern on her chest, her eyelashes trembling slightly.
"Okay, it's okay!"
Rong Jiu's hand stiffened for a moment, but she still gently patted the little maid's shoulder. She heard a soft cry, and the body in her arms trembled.
Then I remembered that the little maid also had an injury on her shoulder.
"Fifth Young Master, this servant didn't run out of the tent on purpose!"
Rong Jiu's lowered gaze could just see Tao Ye's slightly moist eyelashes.
"I know this, and I won't blame you this time!"
The little maid was so injured that Rong Jiu couldn't express her anger even if she was originally angry. What's more, the little maid's actions last night made even him look at her with admiration.
"Lie down quickly, it will take a while to return to the house!"
There was a different kind of tenderness in Rong Jiu's voice.
"I want to hug the young master, but I'm afraid!"
Taoye did not let go, but tightened her grip regardless of the pain in her hands.
My body was shaking badly because of the pain in my hands, but my hands on my waist refused to loosen a little.
The little maid Xu was really frightened.
"Loosen your hand a little. If you touch the wound, the young master will become angry!"
Rong Jiu deliberately lowered her voice.
Feeling her body stiffen in her arms, Rong Jiu, who regretted that she was a little cold, was about to say something soft when the hands around her waist were loosened.
The weak body was about to fall backwards, Rong Jiu hurriedly gave him a hand.
Lying on the soft wool mattress again, Taoye breathed a sigh of relief without having to put his arms around the man's waist and be careful not to let the wounds on his hands burst.
But his face was very sparse, his chin was shrunk in the thick wool, and his hands were hanging on both sides.
Rong Jiu was condescending and felt that the little maid's whole body was filled with an aura of sadness and loss.
"Does the Fifth Young Master dislike this slave?"
There was fear and despair in the gentle question.
Rong Jiu said smoothly: "How could it be?"
"Young Master Wei was indeed... a frivolous servant last night, but... but..."
Taoye didn't know how Miss Chen told the Fifth Young Master what happened last night, but it was a fact that she was captured by the Second Young Master Wei's people. Since the Fifth Young Master could find her there, he would not know about it.
In the eyes of men, a woman's innocence is so important.
She wanted to test out the fifth young master's attitude towards this, so as not to let others get in first.
"This matter is over, don't mention it again in the future!"
When the little maid heard the word "Second Master Wei" from her mouth, Rong Jiu's eyes did freeze for a moment, but it was only for a moment. There was no difference in her tone and demeanor when she spoke.
But although Tao Ye lowered his head, his thoughts were always on Rong Jiu. He noticed the condensed look and felt a little uneasy.
"Yes, this slave knows!"
Tao Ye responded in a low voice, but the index finger and thumb of her right hand tentatively pulled Rong Jiu's sleeve: "By the way, last night I heard that Ting Wei... I heard that he collaborated with the eldest young master in the house to harm you. Are you injured? ?”
"Speaking of what happened last night, I do have something to ask you!"
