The day Bai Yu'an came out from the Metropolitan Procuratorate, it was snowing heavily, and the door outside was deserted and deserted. At first glance, everything was plain white.
A Tao and Gao Han stood not far away. When they saw Bai Yu'an coming out, they hurriedly greeted him.
Bai Yu'an's originally jade-like face was now pale and thin, but her eyes were still bright, as if they contained ripples of light.
Gao Han's expression was solemn, but he didn't dare to look at Bai Yu'an's thin body covered with bloodstains. His voice was hurt: "You have suffered this time."
The heavy snow in the sky seemed to separate a wall between the two of them. Gao Han's mood was unbearable, but Bai Yu'an smiled.
The still clear and gentle voice came out of Bai Yu'an's lips: "Brother Gao, why should you be sad? Yu'an can't die."
After saying that, Bai Yu'an patted Gao Han's shoulder and asked in a low voice, "How are you, teacher?"
Gao Han nodded patiently: "Now is indeed not the time to be sad."
He added: "Shen Shoufu was thinking that the teacher was old, so he notified his family to pick him up last night."
Bai Yu'an lowered his eyes, a stone fell to his heart, and then said: "That's good."
A Tao on the side walked forward silently, took out a cloak rolled with fox fur and put it on Bai Yuan's body, blocking the devastated body. She couldn't bear to look at it, she just felt that the person who was as bright as the bright moon in the past, At this moment, it was ruined like this.
Finally unable to bear it any longer, Ah Tao's eyes turned red instantly, and hot tears fell from her eyes.
Seeing Ah Tao crying like this, Bai Yu'an couldn't bear it, and quickly coaxed: "Good Ah Tao, if you want to cry again, I will cry too."
It's a pity that the sleeves on his body are full of blood, otherwise Bai Yu'an would have to wipe A Tao's tears.
Seeing that A Tao had no intention of stopping crying, she finally found a clean spot on her sleeve and quickly went to wipe A Tao's tears and said, "If you cry again, I will feel uncomfortable in my heart."
"Besides, it's a little cold outside..."
Only then did A Tao stop crying, glared at Bai Yu'an, and said with a sob: "You also know that it's cold. Why is it not cold anymore after standing in the snow for so many hours that day?"
Bai Yu'an knew that A Tao was talking about what she had reported to him at night last time. As soon as she started talking, she was afraid that A Tao would end up wrong, so she quickly begged for mercy and made amends. Only then did her ears become clearer.
Gao Han saw Bai Yu'an going through such a situation, but still seemed to be fine. He couldn't help but sigh and said in a low voice to him: "Shen Shoufu asked someone to send you a letter, so that I can persuade the teacher's wife to use this letter." Fa Zi, speaking of it, Shen Shoufu did help you this time, but it may not be the case next time."
"You offended many people before by not forming cliques. You have to be more careful in the future."
Gao Han has always been cautious, and Bai Yu'an couldn't talk to him about this. But if it was Shen Jue who helped her, Bai Yu'an didn't admit it.
She looked at Gao Han and said, "Teacher, if Shen Jue hadn't been pushing from behind, how could it have ended up like this?"
"This time he let the teacher go home to take care of himself. It was a sign of his conscience and he didn't do more evil things."
Gao Han sighed: "You and I can talk about these things in private. Please don't say them again in the future."
Bai Yu'an scolded Shen Jue tens of thousands of times in her head, but she could only endure it and nodded.
After all, it wouldn't last long for a few people to stand talking in the snow like this. Gao Han said again: "I asked my mansion to prepare a sedan to take you back. You should go in quickly. I will visit you tomorrow."
Bai Yu'an was not polite and said to Gao Han, "Thank you so much, Brother Gao."
Gao Han's expression did not improve. Seeing Bai Yu'an like this, he couldn't help but pursed his lips as if nothing had happened.
He ignored Bai Yu'an, frowned at A Tao and said, "Hurry and help your master in."
A Tao hurriedly helped Bai Yu'an turn around. Just as he was about to get into the carriage, he suddenly heard someone shouting from behind. Bai Yu'an turned around, and it turned out to be Cui Ren, the inspector from the left.
I saw Cui Ren trotting all the way to Bai Yu'an in the snow. He looked at Gao Han on the side and said, "I wonder if Mr. Bai can lend me a step to speak."
It's freezing cold today, and Bai Yu'an's clothes are thin, and he still has to stand in the snow. Isn't this a torment? A Tao was not happy and grabbed Bai Yu'an's hand and refused to let go.
Bai Yu'an smiled and patted Ah Tao's hand, and said politely to Cui Ren: "Master Cui, I'm sorry. I'm in a lot of physical inconveniences at the moment. If Master Cui has anything to say, let's talk about it another day."
Cui Ren didn't expect Bai Yu'an to reject him so bluntly, but after everyone said so, he had no reason to force him to stay. His expression changed, and he sent him away after saying polite words.
On the carriage, A Tao gathered up Bai Yuan's cloak and complained: "I don't know if Mr. Cui, this troubled man, did it intentionally. Seeing that the young master has become like this, he still wants to leave the young master to talk. He has such no eyesight. Why?" Someone who can become an official."
Bai Yu'an laughed, with a slight bitterness in his eyes. He looked at A Tao and said, "Master Cui must have something to say to me if he keeps me here."
"These people have been immersed in officialdom for many years and have become adults. As you said, they don't know how to assess the situation."
A Tao was equally mute and asked curiously: "Since the young master knows that Mr. Cui has something important to do, why don't you stay and listen to what Mr. Cui has to say?"
Bai Yu'an smiled: "He kept me here just to find out about my relationship with Chief Shen."
"Shen Shoufu?" A Tao tilted his head and thought for a moment: "Is it the gentleman in purple who came to search the house that day?"
Bai Yu'an was a little tired, and her body was in severe pain. She leaned softly on the soft pillow behind her, half-closed her eyes and nodded.
A Tao was also surprised and looked at Bai Yu'an: "The chief minister Shen doesn't seem to have any friendship with the young master. He is still a dignified chief minister. Why does he want to inquire about the relationship between the young master and him?"
Bai Yu'an didn't answer. He just used his strength to gently lift the curtain and looked out the snowy window. Dead branches and leaves fell to the ground, and there were still frozen bones on the ground, like a scroll of miserable cursive writing.
But before Bai Yu'an had time to express his feelings, the curtain was closed by A Tao, and he muttered: "Young master is not cold, isn't it? I touched your hand and it felt like ice, and I opened the curtain. It's freezing." Forget it."
Bai Yu'an laughed dumbly, surrendered immediately, and sat silently in the car.
When they arrived at the courtyard on the outskirts of the city, Wei Ruyi stood guard at the door with red eyes. When the people in the carriage got off, she immediately threw herself into Bai Yu'an's arms and started crying.
Bai Yu'an felt helpless being pressed against such a big spider, so he could only patiently pat her on the back and coax her: "It's okay, I won't be back soon."
A Tao pulled Wei Ruyi off Bai Yuan's body and said angrily: "Young Master just came back, what are you doing? Why don't you help Young Master in quickly?"
Wei Ruyi then let go of Bai Yu'an and held her while wiping her tears.
After entering the bedroom, luckily Wei Ruyi had already lit the charcoal fire and the room was still warm. Bai Yuan huddled on the bed and then closed her eyes tiredly.
His body also curled up in pain.
