Chapter 1217: eting yunshu again (3)
This was the slums, and because the houses here were cheap, they were favored by the poor. Bai Xiaozhu and Bai yunshu had once lived here as poor children.
Bai Xiaozhu arrived at the courtyard of a single-story house.
The roof tiles were broken, the walls were knocked off, and even the courtyard door was kicked open. The flowers, grass, and vegetables in the courtyard were either dead or yellow. A group of rats swaggered around in the courtyard.
If it were not for the fact that there was a dim oil lamp burning alone in the room, one would think that this was an abandoned residence.
Bai Xiaozhu quickly walked into the courtyard and pushed open the door. What she saw was a skinny figure lying under a blanket, coughing non-stop.
The room was filled with the pungent sll of Chinese dicine, and the walls were damp and moldy.
...
Even the bedding had a slight stench.
In the spittoon by the bed, more than half of the bloody phlegm had not been poured out. In the porcelain bowl by the bed, there were still dry dregs.
It could be seen that this patient had not been taken care of for a long ti.
Seeing this, Bai Xiaozhu’s nose twitched, “”Xiaoi!”
When the patient on the bed heard the sound, he turned around slowly and said in a hoarse voice,”You are …”
She revealed a Haggard, pale, and thin face. Bai Zhu Zhu almost didn’t recognize her, and the mist in her eyes imdiately turned into tears and rolled down. She went up and hugged her with heartache.”It’s , Xiaozhu.”
Xiao i’s eyes gradually widened and she said excitedly, “”It’s … It’s miss!”
She was Bai Xiaozhu’s personal maidservant, a maidservant who had grown up in the Bai Manor. Later on, when the Bai Manor’s financial situation fell, she followed Bai Xiaozhu without leaving her side, and they were as close as sisters.
Later on, he convinced Bai Xiaozhu and established a new Bai Manor, living a good life.
However, the good tis did not last long. After Bai Xiao Zhu and her brother had broken up, she had been driven out of the Bai Manor and returned to the dilapidated little house that the three of them had once lived in.
“Miss is back. That’s great.” Xiaoi shed tears of joy.
As Bai Xiaozhu wailed, she accidentally touched Xiao i’s thigh and found that her bones were soft. Xiao i’s expression was one of pain.
Bai Xiaozhu lifted the blanket and saw a heartbreaking scene. Xiao i’s legs were almost twisted, and her thigh bone had been completely shattered!
The pants and the flesh had completely stuck together, and it was impossible to tell which was the flesh and which was the clothes.
She covered her mouth, tears streaming down her face. She was sad and angry.”Who did it?”
“I fell on my own, it’s fine,” Xiao i comforted.
How could a person fall like this?
“It’s my brother, Bai yunshu, right?” she asked. Bai Xiaozhu was timid by nature, and she was even more afraid of her elder brother in her heart. Even though she had beaten him up under Xia qingchen’s pressure, she had never shown him any anger.
But at this mont, she was really angry!
Xiao i lowered her head and her tears fell on her back. She sobbed, master blad for instigating you to follow Xia qingchen. That’s why you broke my legs in front of the Bai Manor’s servants.
After a pause, Xiaoi suddenly realized, “”Miss, how did you know I was here?”
Bai Xiaozhu clenched her fists. when I passed by the Bai Manor, ” she said, ” I sneaked back to see you. Only then did I hear from the Butler that you’ve been chased away.
However, the Butler did not tell her that Xiao i was actually so badly injured.
If she had returned a few days later, she would probably have seen Xiao i’s corpse.
Xiaoi understood and quickly urged, “”Young miss, quickly leave! The Butler is the master’s trusted aide, so he will definitely inform the master. He might even send soone to capture you imdiately.”
“Catch ? With him?” Bai Xiaozhu was no longer afraid of Bai yunshu’s might.
“Ever since you left, many of the ninth Prince’s experts have co to the Bai Manor. I think they’re waiting for the young lady to return so that they can capture you!” Xiao i said.
The ninth Prince?
Bai Xiaozhu clicked her tongue. As a mber of the Wen Palace, she knew the reputation of the ninth Prince even better.
When he left Liangzhou for the southern border, the ninth Prince was already very powerful.
Now, it would only be more powerful, right?
She didn’t know why the ninth Prince’s n would send people to the Bai Manor to capture her.
She had just returned to Liangzhou city and didn’t know that not long ago, Xia qingchen had barged into the ninth Prince’s residence single-handedly.
“Young miss, hurry up and leave. It’ll be too late if you don’t!” Xiaoi said hurriedly.
Bai Xiaozhu nodded her head and stepped forward to carry Xiao i up. “I’ll take you back to the southern border!”
Xiao i was flattered. She was grateful but worried. miss, put down. Don’t worry about . Run away by yourself.
Bai Xiaozhu wiped away her tears and looked at her broken legs. “From now on, I’ll take you wherever I go.”
As he spoke, he carried Xiao i and left the tile-roofed house.
But just as he ca out, he stopped and his pupils shrank.
The courtyard was already filled with experts.
Their auras were powerful, and almost all of them were late-stage major stars, much stronger than Bai Xiaozhu.
“You guys, don’t even think about going anywhere.” A sound that caused Bai Xiaozhu’s body to tremble ca from behind the expert.
That voice had once been her nightmare.
“Brother … Bai yunshu!” “Why did you do this to Xiaoi?” Bai Xiaozhu asked angrily.
The experts separated, revealing Bai yunshu who was standing behind them.
“Hmph!” Bai yunshu walked over slowly, his face was filled with hostility.”You ungrateful thing! To think that I’ve worked so hard to raise you, and you’re actually angry at for a servant girl!”
In the past, Bai Xiaozhu had never dared to get angry at him.
Bai Xiaozhu no longer had a good impression of him. She said in disgust, “”You’re so vicious. Xiao i grew up with us, how could you do this?”
she’s a traitor! Bai yunshu chuckled. she incited you to betray . Shouldn’t she be severely punished? ”
I’ve worked so hard to run the Bai Manor to its current state. How can I tolerate such a traitor like her? ” Bai yunshu had never cared about feelings.
If he treated his sister like this, what more a maidservant?
Bai Xiaozhu clenched her fists, her heart filled with a chill. She was completely disappointed in her brother.”Get your people out of the way!”
“Hehe, since you’re back, do you think I’ll let you go with that Xia guy again?” Bai yunshu laughed.
He waved his hand, and the experts slowly gathered around, surrounding Bai Xiaozhu.
“What are you doing? Bai yunshu!” Bai Xiaozhu couldn’t understand why the ninth Prince’s n wanted to capture her.
Bai yunshu slowly flicked his sleeves.”You should call big brother. At the very least, you should call Lord Bai!”
Lord Bai?
Bai yunshu did not have any official position, so how could he be a Lord?
“No matter what, I am still a relative of the royal family. It is only right for you to address as Your Excellency.”
Royal family?
Bai Xiaozhu suddenly understood, and anger appeared on her face. “What have you done?”
“You should be thanking for arranging a good marriage for you!” Bai yunshu said proudly. After I’ve dealt with him, I’ve established a connection with the ninth Prince and have already betrothed you to him as his concubine.”
What!
