Fast Time Traveling Moon Old Candidate

Chapter 298 The next song (53)

Fan Wenfu suddenly felt at a loss. He gently put his arms around Bai Lu and patted her back gently, comforting her, "It's me. It's okay. It's okay."

Bai Lu cried in Fan Wenfu's arms for a long time before she stopped crying. She raised her head from his arms, her red and swollen almond eyes filled with moisture, "Am I dreaming? Then this dream is too beautiful, right? Wen Fu, is it really you?"

"Of course it's me." Fan Wenfu couldn't laugh or cry, raised his hand to wipe away the tears on her face, his tone was gentle and full of pity, "This is the Duke's mansion, I brought you back, my mother also knows you are here Here I am. The people I ordered boiled the hot water, Lulu, let’s take a bath first, and then talk after eating, okay?”

Bai Lu didn't leave Fan Wenfu's eyes for a moment, she nodded very obediently, and then followed Fan Wenfu like a little tail, without leaving even an inch.

After filling the tub, Fan Wenfu stretched out his hand to test the water temperature. After finding no problem, he put down the tub in his hand and said, "The hot water is ready. I'm out. If you need anything, call me. I'll be right outside the door."

"En." Bai Lu lowered her head and responded, but when Fan Wenfu turned to leave, she reached out and grabbed the corner of his clothes uneasily.

Fan Wenfu stopped, turned around and took Bai Lu's hand, "What's wrong?"

Bai Lu still lowered her head, pursed her lips, just shook her head and said nothing.

Fan Wenfu was in a bit of trouble. Bai Lu's apparent insecurity made his heart ache, but men and women were different. Even if they had a marriage contract, they were still unmarried. Bai Lu took a bath, and he had to leave, otherwise It's not good for her reputation, even if no one knows that she is in her room at this time, that's not good,

"..." Bai Lu naturally knew in her heart that her behavior of subconsciously pulling on his clothes just now was inappropriate, but now, only with Fan Wenfu staying by her side can she feel a little more at ease.

Trying hard to restrain her hands that were shaking due to uneasiness, Bai Lu raised her hand and gently pushed Fan Wenfu, "No, it's okay. Wen Fu, please go out. I can do it alone..."

Fan Wenfu held Bai Lu's hand, squeezed it encouragingly, and then touched her head, "Don't worry, I'm right outside the door, and I won't leave even one step."

"Hmm..." Bai Lu nodded, and when Fan Wenfu turned to leave, she stretched out her hand subconsciously, and immediately retracted it. After taking a deep breath, she took off her somewhat blackened prison uniform and stepped into the barrel.

Perhaps it was because she hadn't taken such a clean bath for a long time. After being surrounded by warm water, Bai Lu's tense and restless heart gradually sank.

About half an hour later, Bai Lu, wearing the clothes Fan Wenfu had prepared, opened the door. Fan Wenfu, who had been guarding the door the whole time, turned around when she heard the sound of the door opening.

"Why is your hair coming out before it's dry? Go in, go in, you're weak now, what if you get sick?" Seeing Bai Lu's dripping hair, Fan Wenfu couldn't help frowning, and hugged Bai Lu He took her back to the house, pressed her on the soft couch and finished, took a quick-drying towel, and carefully wiped the water stains on her hair.

Bai Lu closed her eyes, feeling Fan Wenfu's movements, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and Cao Mumei who was lying in the haystack covered with a thin quilt suddenly appeared in her mind, Bai Lu turned around, grabbed Fan Wenfu's arm, her tone was full of worry , "Wen Fu, my mother is still in the prison, and my father..."

"I know, I will send someone to take good care of them. Don't worry, I will take care of everything. You just need to rest in peace in the mansion and leave the rest to me, okay?" Tucking her hair behind her ears, she comforted her softly.

With Fan Wenfu's words, the worries in Bai Lu's heart gradually faded away. She nodded tremblingly, and threw herself into Fan Wenfu's arms, listening to the heartbeat from his chest and the fragrance of the sachet on his body. The faint medicinal fragrance fell into a deep sleep.

"Lulu, don't worry, I will definitely investigate and return Master Bai's innocence." Fan Wenfu hugged Bai Lu in his arms, and gently kissed the top of her head, his eyes were full of firmness.

From then on, Bai Lu lived in the Duke's mansion. Everyone in the Duke's mansion only knew that there seemed to be a guest in the little man's yard, but he never left the yard. Even Mrs. Du went to the yard in person. See that person.

The housekeeper in the mansion is an old man who has been with the Duke for decades. Fan Wenfu didn't hide it from him, but he only told him about it, and asked him to tell other people in the mansion. Don't blame him for being ruthless when it comes to gossiping about guests.

So no matter how curious the people were about the resident, they didn't dare to find out. They all rotted the matter in each other's stomachs and didn't spread it outside the house.

As for Fan Wenfu, after giving orders to the officials, he lived a life of leaving early and returning late. Bai Lu stayed in his room, waiting for him to come back every day. Fortunately, Mrs. Du occasionally came to the yard to accompany her Talk to her, tell her some interesting things outside the mansion, tell her the recent situation of Cao Mumei and Bai Mingxi in the dungeon, these days are not so sad.

Half a month later, Fan Wenfu took the evidence he had found, together with the left and right ministers, and handed over a memorial to the emperor on the dragon chair in the morning, hoping to retrial the bribery case of Bai Mingxi, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites.

The left and right prime ministers were originally the two major forces fighting in separate courts. They both knew something about Bai Mingxi's case and did not want to intervene at first. However, Fan Wenfu came to the door with something quite threatening to them, but They were only asked to speak out in the morning to get the emperor to agree to a retrial. Naturally, the two of them would not refuse such a deal.

Therefore, the imperial edict to behead Bai Mingxiqiu's back that was originally planned to be issued was stopped just like that, and the matter that had already been finalized was brought up for retrial.

Zhennan General Mansion.

"Slap!" There was a loud applause in the front hall, Gao Xuantong covered his face and fell on the table.

The general's wife hurried forward to support Gao Xuantong, looking at the bright slap marks on her face, she felt distressed, "Master! If there is something you can't talk about, you have to do it! You are such a daughter, how can you bear to do it?" !"

"It's because of you, a good mother, who has been pampering her like this, that she is so lawless!" General Zhennan's face was full of anger, his thick eyebrows were furrowed, and he pointed at Gao Xuantong, "Sooner or later, I will be killed by you, a rebellious woman! "

"Master! What happened, can you explain clearly!" The general's wife stared at General Zhennan with round eyes, and protected Gao Xuantong in her arms, preventing General Zhennan from doing anything else.

General Zhennan shook his sleeves fiercely, "Today, Mr. Fan proposed to the officials in the morning that he would retry Mr. Bai, the Minister of Rites. Many of the evidences used to reverse the case came from my people. Bing is good at this technique. If Young Master Fan didn't deliberately frame this matter, then this rebellious woman could only have sent someone to do it!

You are still protecting her now. You must know that slandering a court official is a capital crime. Don't say that I am just a general of Zhennan. Even if I am the king of Zhennan, I cannot escape the death penalty! "

The general's wife stiffened suddenly, with a somewhat panicked expression on her face, "How could it be so serious? She is just a minor official..."
