Chapter 417 The Situation of Lin Roe

Xie's mansion is not big, and Yao Shu walked in a hurry, and soon reached the front yard.

The boy who led the way brought Yao Shu to the study, and immediately stepped aside consciously.

She took a deep breath, opened the door and walked in.

Xie Qian was the only one in the room, reading a letter at his desk.

He was still wearing the black robes he wore when he was in court, and his handsome face was so calm that no one could see any emotion.

Yao Shu bowed to Xie Qian and called him in a low voice: "Uncle."

Xie Qian raised his head and said softly, "You are here."

He put the letter in his hand aside, pointed to the seat next to him, and said to Yao Shu, "Sit."

Yao Shu obediently sat down beside him, his slender fingers tightened unconsciously, clutching the towel in his hand.

She had so many questions in her mind that she was about to blurt them out, but she swallowed them in her throat, almost restless.

I saw that Xie Qian's faint expression showed a rare two-point hesitation, and finally said: "Ashu."

He paused, as if he was not used to calling his niece and daughter-in-law like that.

But yes, Yao Shu had never met Xie Qian alone, let alone sitting opposite each other in the study.

Xie Qian didn't get straight to the point, but talked about something else first: "I was reckless in the letter I sent you earlier. You shouldn't have let you know about this, but it made you seriously ill."

Yao Shu's fingers tightened, and he just shook his head and said, "Uncle, you don't have to blame yourself. I'm sick because of my physical problems, and it has nothing to do with uncle's letter. It's just that I hope uncle will let you know how A' Radi is now."

Xie Qian looked into Yao Shu's eyes steadily, and soon saw a strong sense of determination from those eyes that were always smiling gently.

He didn't hesitate anymore, and immediately said: "Ah's life is not in danger, you don't have to worry."

Yao Shu's originally tense nerves were suddenly loosened, and the hand that was tightly held was also suddenly loosened, only to feel pain in the palm of his hand.

She lowered her head to look, only to find that the nails had penetrated into the palm of her hand, leaving streaks of blood.

Moisture welled up in Yao Shu's eyes, and he refused to lose his composure in front of Xie Qian, so he forced a smile and said, "I feel relieved when uncle says that."

Xie Qian saw the great change in Yao Shu's mind, and suddenly understood her feelings for Lin Rong——

She looked plain and gentle, but in fact she was deeply affectionate.

Then Yao Shu said to him in a low voice: "I know that what uncle is doing is related to the country and society. I am just a little girl, and I have no intention of inquiring about the situation in the court. It's just... the only thing I care about, and I don't worry about it. It's Ah Wing. Can uncle tell me where he is now? How is he doing now? Is he still safe?"

The sentence "Life is safe" gave Yao Shu a momentary respite from his tense emotions.

But her heart was still up and down, worrying about Lin Roe's safety.

Seeing this, Xie Qian simply didn't hide it from her, he just said: "Ah Rong is in my house now, he is still in a coma."

Yao Shu's eye circles turned red all of a sudden, she blinked, trying to hold back the tears, but her eyelashes were wet, and her eyes were even more moist with water vapor.

Being looked at by Yao Shu with such an expression, he couldn't help but feel a little moved.

He whispered: "Do you want to know the whole story?"

Yao Shu didn't expect Xie Qian to let go, and understood his concerns, and immediately affirmed: "If uncle is willing to tell me, I will definitely not let the third person know."

Xie Qian knew that Yao Shu seemed to be fragile, but in fact he had a tenacious temperament.

If it wasn't for Lin Roe's comfort, she would not have almost cried in front of her face.

Xie Qian regained his composure, and said: "Now Ah Chao and Ah Wei are doing things for His Majesty, and you know it by now."

Yao Shu nodded, and said softly, "Before Ah Rong went to the northwest, he told me that he wanted to be a knife for His Majesty."

Xie Qian gave a "hmm" and continued: "I brought them into the vortex of power, so I will definitely do my best to protect the safety of the two of them."

Hearing this, Yao Shu felt a little more at ease.

Xie Qian is a true gentleman, the promise he made will surely be fulfilled.

The tone of the man's voice didn't change at all, it was still indifferent, as if what he said next was not a secret that could cause the court to turn upside down, but just a common gossip between the two: "Nowadays, in your Majesty's country, there are thieves who are plotting inside, and there are foreigners outside. The covetousness of the tiger and the collusion between the two sides led to the invasion of the Northwest. This time, Ah Rong went to the Northwest, not only to lead troops to fight, but also to find out the truth and bring the evidence to His Majesty's dragon case."

Yao Shu's breathing was stagnant, his eyes widened slightly, but he restrained himself from making a sound.

She looked at Xie Qian, her voice was very soft, but she didn't lose weight, and asked: "Is the letter my uncle gave me true?"

Seeing that Xie Qian's expression became serious, he said to her: "The content of that letter is indeed true. I sent it to you to make the people behind the scenes believe that Ah Radi has been deeply involved in the enemy army and has narrowly escaped death. .Combined with your performance and Ah Chao’s failure to inquire about the news, it will make people believe that Ah Wei’s whereabouts are unknown.”

Before Yao Shu could react, Xie Qian said, "I didn't think carefully about this matter. I never thought about Ah Radi's matter. It will make you seriously ill."

Yao Shu recalled his behavior after receiving Xie Qian's letter, and what Yao Chao did, and slowly figured out Xie Qian's intention for such an arrangement.

Only then did she understand why Xie Qian's first words were to apologize to her.

She shook her head and said earnestly: "Uncle, you don't have to owe me anything in your heart. Whatever you do, no matter whether it is uncle, second brother, or Ah Wing, everyone is under tremendous pressure, especially Hold your life in your hands. What does it matter if I get sick? As long as the goal is achieved, it will be fine."

Seeing that she really didn't care, Xie Qian just nodded lightly, letting go of the matter, and then heard Yao Shu questioning: "Did Ah Rong already get the evidence? Otherwise, uncle wouldn't go to such lengths to hide his truth." whereabouts."

Xie Qian nodded, admiring Yao Shu's cleverness in his heart: "Ah Ling sneaked into the alien race, risked his life, and got the letter of the thief collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country. Fortunately, Jiang Ning's people found him. Brought Ah Radi back. Now that the other party can't find Ah Radi, he will definitely jump over the wall, so I have to make a bad plan and hide him in Xie's mansion."

Just Xie Qian's description in a few words can make people feel the danger that Lin Rong faced that day.

Yao Shu couldn't help feeling sour when he thought of Lin Rong's situation alone and in a difficult situation. When he raised his head, his eyes were filled with tears, "Uncle, is he seriously injured?"

Xie Qian was silent for a moment, and said in a low voice: "When you were bedridden and sick, it was when he was struggling on the line of life and death, and he was out of danger a few days ago."

Yao Shu covered his mouth, the tears could no longer be held back, streaming down.

Yes, when she was lingering on the sick bed and couldn't get better for a long time, didn't she feel restless all the time, thinking about Lin Rong?
If he was struggling at the moment of life and death at that time, those dark dreams and desperate cries of her at night would all have their source.

That night, she dreamed that Lin Roe came out of the heavy rain with a lamp in his hand. Could it be a sign of his refusal to leave?Did he ever hear her cry?

Yao Shu was crying silently, big and big tears filled with strong and hot emotions, pouring out non-stop.

She desperately controlled herself not to cry out loud, and said to Xie Qian in a very calm voice: "Uncle, I want to see him..."

Xie Qian looked into Yao Shu's eyes, unable to say no.

He just frowned slightly, and asked without any emotion: "He has been injured a lot, are you sure you want to see it?"

In Xie Qian's opinion, it is good that Yao Shu knows that Lin Rong is safe, and instead of making her cry again when the two of them meet, it is better for Yao Shu to go home and wait at ease. After waking up, by then Lin Rong's seventy-seven eighty-eight wounds would be fully healed.

But Yao Shu didn't care about these things, he just wanted to see him as soon as possible.

She nodded affirmatively: "Please take me, uncle."

Xie Qian couldn't understand, but he was willing to respect Yao Shu's choice: "You follow me."
