He is still a young master, but he is not even as good as Su Yao, who just came back from outside. He ignored everything else when he heard the news about Su Xingxuan. He doesn't look like a young master at all. How can he be a match for Su Yao if he is so impatient
Su An didn't want to care what he was thinking. His mind and eyes were filled with the words "Su Xingxuan". Seeing Hu Ying lowering his head, he also hurriedly coughed to cover up his expression, cleared his throat and said, "Get up."
And asked the people around to step back.
The servants around him were just looking forward to this sound. When they heard him ask them to leave, they ran away quickly. The maids in his room also retreated behind.
Su An then hurriedly asked, "Tell me clearly! Where is the third girl?"
The more he thought about it at home these days, the more he felt that he should not let Ruyi wander around outside.
His mother said that for the sake of his future, he could not think of marrying Ruyi, and even taking a concubine was out of the question. He was scared at first, but thought what his mother said made sense.
But no matter what the logic was, he really couldn't just stand by and watch Ruyi fall into trouble.
Now that he heard news about Su Xingxuan, his heart started beating wildly for some reason. He became even more certain that he could not lose Su Ruyi.
No matter what method he uses, he must keep Ruyi by his side.
Hu Ying lowered her head. "It was Miss Yongge who came to the house. She said that Miss San is now living in Daxing County, but she has no elders to take care of her, and no adults to make decisions for her. Miss San is a girl, so it's inconvenient for her to do anything, and she has to be on guard against those who have bad intentions. Her life is very hard. Miss San refused to let her come to the house to report the news and plead for mercy. She couldn't bear to let Miss San suffer, so she came here by herself, but couldn't even get into the house. So she came here to beg for mercy, and wanted me to bring you a message..."
Su An's heart broke when he heard this.
From childhood to adulthood, Ruyi has never suffered any hardship, but now she has been forced to this point.
He was so heartbroken that his eyes almost turned red, but when he thought about meeting Master Su San later, he quickly restrained his emotions, nodded, and reluctantly said, "What message?"
"The third lady said that she will meet you at Baoding Tower on the 20th. Please make sure to go there." Hu Ying sighed, "I think Miss Yongge is in a difficult situation. She used to be the eldest maidservant beside the third lady, and she was also like a deputy lady. I have never seen her be so cautious."
Su An thought about Yongge's appearance and felt even more upset.
So much so that when he went to see Master Su San, he was absent-minded.
Master Su San slammed the table several times before he came back to his senses. He was immediately furious: "Your soul has floated away?! Do you remember what I told you?!"
Mrs. Su frowned, thinking her son was too perfunctory. She was afraid her husband would get angry, so she hurriedly urged him, "Your father is asking you a question. What are you thinking about?"
Su An finally came back to his senses and responded with his head down in a listless voice.
Master Su San couldn't help getting angry when he saw him like this. Just then, someone from Old Lady Su's side came in. Master Su San glared at Su An and let Nanny Su in. When he saw Nanny Su, he asked hurriedly, "Madam, how is it? Is there any news?"
Mrs. He went to the palace, which made Master Su San very nervous.
Although His Majesty should show some mercy to Madam He, after all, Madam He has a very stubborn temper and has been indifferent to His Majesty for so many years. The incident of Second Master He has caused such a big fuss that no one can predict what the situation in the palace will be. He is very worried that something will happen to Madam He.
Mrs. Su San also became nervous. She looked at Su An and frowned at him.
I don't know what he is thinking. His grandmother has been in the palace for such a long time and there has been no news. He doesn't seem to be worried. He is so distracted.
Nanny Su shook her head and said, "She was afraid that the Third Master and Madam would worry, so she asked me to come and tell you two that there is no news at the moment, and we don't know what is going on. We just ask the Third Master and Madam to keep calm and not let anyone go outside to inquire, so as to avoid causing trouble, which would be bad."
Master Su San originally wanted to ask Li Rui to wait outside the imperial city to see if there was any news. When he heard this, he immediately gave up the idea and had to frown and agree.
After a whole day of anxiety, the Third Master was so anxious that he couldn't even eat, but there was no news from the palace. In the end, he couldn't bear it any longer and didn't care about Su An anymore. He ran straight to Old Lady Su's room and waited with her.
Su Rong and Su Yao were drinking tea and playing chess in Old Lady Su's porch. When they heard the pacing of Master Su San outside, they shook their heads and glanced at Su Yao: "It's so late, and there's still no news from the palace. Aren't you worried?"
"I'm not worried. Grandmother knows her limits." Su Yao knew that Madam He had been raised by His Majesty for many years. As long as Madam He was willing, she would not suffer any loss in the palace. She raised her eyebrows and looked at the sky outside. Her voice gradually lowered: "It should be about the same."
After so much time has passed, the Pang family should have almost completed their plan and have probably obtained all the necessary evidence.
Master Su San didn't know that the two young people inside were calm and composed. He became more and more uneasy as he waited. He turned his head to look at Old Madam Su and whispered, "Mother, it's almost dark, and there's still no movement in the palace..."
Before he could finish his sentence, the usually calm Su Ma came in from outside without even having time to report, and said in horror: "Madam, Third Master, someone from the Dali Temple has come and sent Master He back. Master He is seriously injured..."
Master Su San was stunned, and he exclaimed, his eyes widened: "He was seriously injured?! What happened?!"
Su Rong was also pushed out from the back porch by Su Yao. Master Su San could not take care of them for the time being. He asked Li Rui who followed him in with trepidation: "What happened? Who sent Master He back?"
Li Rui hurriedly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. It was a cold day, but he was sweating all over. He didn't even have time to take a breath and replied quickly: "It was sent back by the Dali Temple Secretary and the Imperial Hospital Doctor. They said that Mr. He was assassinated in prison. Now Mr. He is injured. They were ordered to send Mr. He back first..."
Mr. He was assassinated?!
Master Su San didn't react for a moment, but he heard clearly that he was ordered to send it back, and he relaxed a little - from the tone of voice, Master He's case didn't seem to be a big deal now. Could it be a blessing in disguise
He turned his head to look at Old Madam Su, and heard her say in a deep voice: "Why don't you go out and pick them up? The gentlemen and the imperial physicians must also be properly accommodated, and no delay is allowed. Rong'er will go with you."
