Chapter 17 Curiosity Killed the Cat
It was already lunch time, and Zhu Lian was preparing to eat.
Then I heard shouts like thunder outside.
Zhu Lian's embroidered eyebrows frowned slightly.
The maidservant next to her, Xiaorou, immediately said:
"Saint, servant girl, go out and have a look."
Zhu Lian nodded.
Guards of the Forbidden Army... Zhu Lian couldn't help but see the face of that little thief in his mind.
Then I felt a burning pain.
There was such a slight desire to see him.
"Who is making noise outside the hall?"
After Xiao Rou came out, she saw Lu Hao who looked like a giant, and said with a frown.
"This sister, I have something important to ask to see the saint, and I hope you can pass it on to me."
Lu Hao said hastily.
"Joke, who do you think you are, a saint is something you can see whenever you want."
The last time Concubine Chen Guifei didn't bring down Zhu Lian, Xiao Rou felt a little uneasy, but seeing another guard now, she was inevitably a little suspicious.
It's not that Zhu Lian is testing himself on purpose.
"A certain elder brother, Lin Fan, was seriously injured. The doctor said that he needed a thousand-year-old ginseng to save his life, so he took the liberty to ask the saint..."
Lu Hao explained what happened to Xiaorou.
It turned out that this was not the sage's temptation to himself.
"Heh, how can your brother's life be as expensive as ginseng gold that lasts thousands of years, what a joke..."
Xiaorou couldn't help but sarcastically said.
"I also ask the saint to help. As long as it can save my brother's life, my life will belong to the saint from now on. The saint told me..."
Lu Hao said emotionally.
"What a joke, your humble life belonged to a saint."
There is no king's soil under the whole world, and there is no king's ministers on the coast of leading the soil.
Xiaorou couldn't help but sarcastically said:
"Leave quickly, if you offend the saint later, your head will be beheaded."
"Please pass it on, my lord, for the sake of my elder brother's conscientious work for the saint..."
"Hmph, it's your honor to work for a saint. Don't you want to take credit for it? Someone told you that a saint won't meet you, and he won't kill your brother..."
Xiaorou was a little annoyed by Lu Hao's distorted attitude, and couldn't help but scolded in a cold voice.
"Cough cough..."
However, at this moment, there was a sudden coughing sound from behind.
Zhu Lian actually came out of the bedroom.
"Saint, why did you come out?"
Xiaorou was taken aback, and hurriedly saluted and said:
"Someone will send this reckless man away..."
"Who did you just say was injured?"
Zhu Lian interrupted what Xiaorou said, and looked at Lu Hao in front of him.
"I beg the sage to save my elder brother Lin Fan..."
Lu Hao then briefly described what happened to Zhu Lian.
After Zhu Lian finished listening, he couldn't help showing a hint of admiration in his beautiful eyes.
I didn't expect this shameless little thief to have such a side of emphasizing love and righteousness.
"Xiaorou..."
Zhu Lian was about to give an order, but suddenly thought that Xiao Rou belonged to Concubine Chen Gui. If Xiao Rou was sent to take care of Lin Fan, he would instead arrange a time bomb beside Lin Fan, so he changed his words and said:
"Xiaoqian, take my handbook and go to the inner treasury to get a thousand-year-old ginseng, follow this guard out of the palace, and stay in that man's mansion."
The maid Qian'er next to her was stunned when she heard the words, and quickly knelt down:
"Saint forgive me..."
Zhu Lian shook his head and said to Qian'er:
"This palace is not trying to drive you away, but to let you go out of the palace to help take care of this person. This person is a savior."
It turned out that it wasn't that Zhu Lian wanted to drive him away, the women in this palace were all hard-working people.
If you are lucky, you can be lucky for a night when you are drunk at the official house. If you live well, you may still have a chance to be in the top position.
But the vast majority of them are lonely and lonely, and it is basically a luxury to find a man they like to marry.
"Saint, this ginseng is a rare item. It is a bit of a waste to use it on a warrior like this."
At this time, Xiao Rou hurriedly advised her.
Zhu Lian glanced at Xiaorou, and asked back:
"Are you teaching me how to do things?"
Xiaorou was startled, and quickly knelt down.
"The sage forgives sins, but the slaves dare not."
But Zhu Lian ignored her, and just turned around and went back to his bedroom.
Lu Hao stared blankly at what happened in front of him.
Originally, he had already planned for the worst, if the sage refused to agree, even if he risked his life, he would have to get the sage's order even if he forced the palace.
Who knew that the sage agreed so easily.
Not only agreed, but also sent a beautiful fairy to take care of Lin Fan.
Holding Zhu Lian's letter, Qian'er fetched thousand-year-old ginseng from the internal storage, and the two hurried to Lin Fan's home.
Lin Fan was just a small guard of the Imperial Army, and in Kaifeng City, where every inch of land was expensive, the place where he lived was really shabby.
Lu Hao carefully observed the expression on Qian'er's face, for fear that she might show a hint of disgust.
After all, this Qian'er was sent by Zhu Lian, representing Zhu Lian.
Fortunately, Qian'er was also a girl from a poor family before entering the palace, so she didn't mean to be picky about the house where Lin Fan lived.
Pushing open the door and going in, Qian'er saw Li Shishi sitting in the yard.
Although this woman was wearing a thin veil, she still couldn't hide her beautiful face.
It turned out that the guard Lin was injured just to save this stunning beauty. It's no wonder that such a wonderful person was bullied, even a man would not be able to see it.
Lu Hao saw Li Shishi in the yard, and opened his mouth in surprise.
"Miss Master, why are you here?"
Last night, he caught a glimpse from a distance, and now he will see this foxy girl up close, and feel that this woman's whole body seems to be glowing, and anyone who takes a look at her will be attracted.
Li Shishi ignored him, but shouted into the room:
"The person you are waiting for is here, let's go."
Su Qin came out of the room reluctantly, looked at Lu Hao expectantly and asked:
"Lu Hao, but have you obtained the thousand-year-old ginseng?"
"Sister-in-law, the saint specially asked this adult to bring a thousand-year-old ginseng. Pengfei is saved this time."
Lu Hao said excitedly.
Qian'er looked at the beautiful woman who came out of the room, and was a little confused for a moment.
What kind of person is this Lin Fan? Why is everyone around him such wonderful people.
The one who just came out of this room is as warm as water, and his voice is soft, making people feel soft when they hear the voice. If a woman is like this, let alone a man.
One is delicate and the other is charming. These two women have their own characteristics and strengths, but they are both top-notch.
Qian'er looked down subconsciously.
I have always been proud that I can't see my toes. In front of these two women, my advantage is gone.
Qian'er became more and more curious about Lin Fan.
