Chapter 253: Secret Guard Delivering a Letter (2/2)
“Master, the secret guard commander is here.” Ming Lu reported to Pei Rumo.
Pei Rumo’s hand stopped moving for a moment before passing down his instruction, “You are dismissed. Send him in.”
Ming Lu left the study room and summoned the secret guard commander. “Master asks you to enter. Hurry up and go inside.”
This secret guard commander closed the door behind him and before he could say anything, Pei Rumo spoke up, “Speak. What happened at the general’s residence.”
The secret guard commander was startled. He wondered when his master became interested in the young lady and he felt that the rumor going around was true.
“Master, after this subordinate’s previous report, the mysterious man went back to look for Bai Luochu before disappearing. The number of times Divine Physician Bai visited the Remote Paddy Inn decreased after that. I am here today to report another matter.”
“Oh? Do you think I’m wasting your time by assigning you to spy on the general’s residence? Are you here to request to be transferred away?” Pei Rumo listened to the insignificant report from the secret guard commander and assumed that the latter didn’t feel like he was content with his job.
The secret guard commander was quick to defend himself. “This subordinate isn’t so bold. I am here today because something happened at the general’s residence. This subordinate feels that Master will be interested in the news.”
Bullshit! Who dares to look down on Divine Physician Bai? If Master gets angry, he will banish me to a bitter cold desert somewhere in the world to rot. Anyway, I still need to follow his orders. Master has always been a farsighted person.
“Oh? Tell me about it.” When Pei Rumo heard that something had happened at the general’s residence, his interest was piqued. He placed down the imperial notice in his hand and he indicated for the secret guard to continue.
The secret guard made his report, “Master, earlier on, His Third Highness went to look for Young Lady Luo Chu to discuss something. According to what this subordinate heard, His Third Highness is unhappy that Young Lady Luo Chu is growing closer to Master and His Second Highness. Young Lady Luo Chu chewed him out and placed him in an embarrassing situation. Before he left, Young Lady Luo Chu’s younger cousin appeared and made some false accusations, causing His Third Highness…”
The secret guard felt that it was rather hilarious and felt that Young Lady Luo Chu was too clever for her own good. He forcefully suppressed his intention to laugh, “In the end, Young Lady Luo Chu’s cousin enraged His Third Highness. Right now, Young Lady Luo Chu is dragging her to look for her mother.”
