Chapter 1027 He Wants to Guard
General Qiu took off his cloak at the door, stamped his feet, rubbed his face and arms, and rubbed his hands to warm them up. He even wanted to do a set of boxing outside to warm up his body before going in.
But as soon as this thought came up, he suppressed it with a "Puh" sound.
It was all because of his youngest son that he became a little crazy. He didn't get close to Miss Lu, so how could he possibly be cold to her?
What's going on? If he goes in, the room temperature will drop, right? He's a human, not a ghost!
"Your Highness."
"Come in."
Zhou Shiyue's voice came from inside.
General Qiu then entered the door. As soon as he entered, he found that he was thinking a lot and a little.
He thought that His Highness was sitting outside guarding Miss Lu, but unexpectedly, His Highness was sitting directly on the bed, holding Miss Lu's hand.
Are you reluctant to let him go even if you want to see him?
In addition to His Highness, there was also a little monk in the room.
Sizhen was sitting cross-legged on the armchair in the outer room, holding a string of Buddhist beads in his hand. He was twisting the beads with his brows lowered and eyes closed, and his lips were moving as he chanted silently.
"Your Highness, how is Miss Lu?" General Qiu was still very worried about Lu Zhaoling.
"Not awake yet."
Zhou Shiyue said to him, "You are here just in time. Find some people to take over the supplies we brought and make sure they are delivered to the real victims. Some of my men will arrive today, and in addition, people from the Sun Family Business will also help."
"Anyone who wants to touch this batch of supplies will be detained."
General Qiu quickly agreed.
"I saw quite a few disaster victims on the way back to the city today. They probably made up their minds to leave the village after the snow stopped yesterday. The soldiers I sent out to investigate reported that many villages and towns were indeed affected by the disaster."
"Besides, the crops in the fields had already frozen to death. In fact, the people have been tightening their belts for a while. Zong Zhihong should have records, and he will also send people to various villages and towns to investigate, but..."
General Qiu paused here.
Zhou Shiyue was in a very bad mood at the moment, and immediately raised his brows and glanced at him, "Why, is there anything you dare not say?"
"There's nothing I dare not say." General Qiu continued, "I don't know to whom Zong Zhihong first presented the disaster records."
Then he continued, "Last night, when the guest house was in danger, Mr. Zhou San came to the Qiu Mansion with only a driver. The second brother stopped him at the gate and refused to open the door."
He said the two things together, which meant he told Zhou Shiyue very clearly that the records in Lord Zong's hand were presented to Zhou Yi.
Zhou Shiyue glanced at him again.
"You are guarding Subei, are you only guarding against foreign enemies?"
So, you don’t care about what’s happening to Zhou Yi in the city?
General Qiu felt a little ashamed.
"Your Highness, when it comes to training soldiers and fighting, I am not modest, but when it comes to other things, I am indeed far behind. The Third Young Master gave me the impression that he was ambitious and open-minded. He really wanted to make a name for himself in Subei City, and he did not think of keeping a low profile just because he was demoted to a commoner."
"To be honest, I used to admire his style of doing things. He was demoted, and if he did something wrong, he would accept the punishment. But it didn't stop him from continuing to work hard and offer advice to the Great Zhou."
It was also because the person in front of him was the Prince of Jin, his "apprentice" who had stayed with him for a long time when he was a child, that General Qiu expressed his thoughts so bluntly.
"After I was deceived by Cui Wanping, the Third Young Master started to act in a high-profile manner, so now I can't tell whether this is a coincidence or something else."
If it is not a coincidence, it means that Cui Wanping's affairs are related to Mr. Zhou San.
Only after he felt that General Qiu had been controlled did Master Zhou San begin to act boldly.
But this is not something he can guess now, His Highness is here.
“If Zhou Yi comes again today, tell him that I don’t have time to see him yet, and ask him to come again tomorrow at noon.” Zhou Shiyue said.
"Yes."
"Go find Zong Zhihong and ask him to bring the disaster files to me. Oh, and keep the officials who are left behind."
"Yes."
General Qiu asked again, "What should we do with Hua Mudan and her servant now?"
"Have you seen it?"
The effect of Hua Mudan should have passed.
"No." General Qiu said frankly, "I heard from the second brother that no man in our family can play with Hua Mudan better."
Zhou Shiyue's mouth twitched.
"So even you don't dare to see him?"
"Your Highness wants me to see you?"
"Okay, go do other things first, just lock them up first."
After finishing the business here, Zhou Shiyue found that General Qiu had not left yet. He raised his eyebrows, "General, do you have anything else to do?"
"Miss Lu, you shouldn't be able to draw talismans for me in this state, right?"
He had already made up his mind and wanted Lu Zhaoling to draw a talisman on him. He had nothing to hide from Miss Lu.
"Wait until she wakes up."
Zhou Shiyue turned his head and looked at the sleeping Lu Zhaoling, his eyes filled with heartache.
"Go."
He waved.
General Qiu retreated.
The door curtain was lowered, and Zhou Shiyue lay down, gently holding Lu Zhaoling in his arms.
He sighed almost inaudibly.
Sizhen opened his eyes carefully, took a quick look inside, and then quickly looked away.
"Amitabha."
After arriving at the Qiu Mansion, Donor Lu asked him to play with the Qiu family's children here and have a good rest. He would take him back with them when they returned to Beijing and told him not to worry about anything else.
However, he felt that it would be inappropriate for him to just eat and do nothing, so he stayed in his room calmly and copied scriptures, praying for his master, uncles, and the disaster victims in Subei.
As a result, he was so tired from copying that he actually slept soundly last night. When he heard the thunder, it was too late.
The bad guy left and he came.
When I arrived, I saw only a tragic situation in the hospital.
Sizhen felt guilty and blamed himself all night.
No matter what happens today, he will stay here with Donor Lu and recite sutras and pray for her.
But it was a bit embarrassing. Donor Prince Jin refused to leave and kept hugging Donor Lu.
Forget it, he can’t see it, he can’t see it.
In fact, if you don't look carefully, you can't see it.
Zhou Shiyue felt that Lu Zhaoling's breathing was much calmer than last night. Although he thought she would be fine, he still didn't dare to relax.
He couldn't fall asleep, so he simply laid her down, turned over, supported his upper body with one hand, and looked at her.
"Er, I'm not trying to take advantage of you right now. I just want to try and see if you can wake up faster if I do this."
After saying that, he leaned over and kissed her lightly on the lips.
He kissed her once, looked up at her for a while, then kissed her a second time and observed her for a while.
At first, he just pecked her lips lightly, but gradually he couldn't control himself and his lips couldn't be separated.
The lips touch gently and the breath intertwines, so intoxicating.
