Chapter 153: Great Care (1/2)
Bai Luochu steered the carriage with extreme speed. The general's residence wasn’t like those aristocratic clans that were still in power. It was situated at the outskirts of the capital city. However, they were able to arrive within a short period of time.
As soon as Bai Luochu stopped the carriage, she quickly and carefully pulled Pei Qingfeng out . She carried him over her shoulder and walked into the general's residence. When she reached the entrance, she was obstructed by the guard servants.
Looking at the two of them right now, it would be strange if they weren’t stopped.One of them had disheveled hair and had a mask on his face. The other had a horrific wound on his chest and it looked like someone dragged him out from a pool of blood.
“If the two of you are here to visit my Master, please hand over the invitation card. If you are here to seek refuge, please go to other residences. Our general's residence isn’t some wealthy clan big enough to accommodate two buddhas like you.”
When Bai Luochu heard what the servants said, she was enraged. She spoke to Pei Qingfeng, “Help me take off my mask.”
Pei Qingfeng’s brain was already muddled and when he heard Bai Luochu’s voice, he simply peeled off the mask on her face.
When the guard servants saw the face behind the mask, they were shocked. Wasn’t she the young lady?
“What are you standing around for?! Open your eyes wide and look carefully! I am the official owner of this residence. No matter how small the general's residence is, you still have to accommodate this buddha. As for the person I am carrying, he is the Second Prince. Right now, he is suffering from severe injuries and I am trying to save his life! If something were to happen, even if you had tens of heads, it won’t be enough when His Majesty starts to investigate the matter. The entire general’s residence will be buried along with the prince! Hurry up and help me carry the Second Prince inside!” When Bai Luochu saw how clumsy these servants were, she flew into a rage. Was her uncle’s family crazy? Why did they hire these fools?
Those guard servants were like wooden blocks as they stood at the entrance. They only started to move when they heard Bai Luochu scream about how everyone was going to die. They quickly helped Bai Luochu to bring Pei Qingfeng into the secluded courtyard. They didn’t even complain when they realized their hands were covered with blood.
These guard servants might be fools, but they weren’t actually retarded. After calming down, they realized that there was something wrong.
Firstly, Young Lady Luo Chu never left the general's residence. How did she come back if she didn’t leave? Furthermore, she was dressed in a crude man’s robes and had a mysterious mask on her face. Secondly, wasn’t the person she was carrying the Second Prince? How could he suffer such horrific injuries?
“What a joke. With the likes of the general's residence? A declined noble clan? Young Lady Luo Chu is an orphan daughter and it is already a blessing for her to still be alive. Where did she get the money to study medicine? How is it possible for them to allow her to learn medical skills? If they could, shouldn’t the young lady be the one to obtain the benefits?” The other guard servant spoke with extreme disdain.
