“Your clothes are wet. Let’s go back and change them first. If there’s anything, the Lord will tell you in detail later.”
As Chu Yun spoke, he hurried the maid who followed behind to bring Lu Sheng back to the room Chu Sihan had arranged for her.
Lu Sheng, who changed her clothes, felt suspicious.
Although she had not known Chu Yun for long, she knew that he was a righteous man.
It was obvious that the child was pushed down by Young Master Jiang. However, Chu Yun acted like he did not care.
This was obviously intentional murder. At this juncture, why did the child’s grandma not take issue with it and even apologize to the culprit?
Also, why did Chu Yun look troubled?
Who was this Young Master Jiang?
Just when she was still trying to figure it out, someone knocked on her door.
“Come in.”
Right after she finished speaking, she saw Chu Sihan push open the door and enter.
Unlike this morning, Chu Sihan was wearing a vermillion official’s robe. His aura was more dignified than usual as well.
“I heard that you jumped into the lake to save someone?”
He asked as soon as he entered.
Lu Sheng did not answer his question. Instead, she asked about Young Master Jiang.
“Who is that Young Master Jiang?”
Chu Sihan poured her a cup of hot tea and passed it to her before pouring himself another cup.
Then, he looked up at her and said faintly, “His grandfather is the current Crown Prince’s tutor.”
His short sentence clarified Lu Sheng’s confusion.
She only knew that that person was someone even Chu Sihan could not afford to offend.
At least, in terms of position, Chu Sihan could not afford to offend him.
But…
“As the saying goes, a son who commits a crime is guilty of the same crime as a commoner. That child is merely the grandson of the Crown Prince’s tutor. Are we just going to let him harm others willfully?”
“Those common words are just to comfort the people.”
Chu Sihan’s thin lips curved into a faint sneer. “Do you really think that the Emperor will be punished the same way as the commoners if he breaks the law?”
Was this young lady naive or really stupid?
“I was just saying.”
Lu Sheng pursed her lips.
Her previous life’s living environment was a bit cleaner, and she rarely encountered such twists and turns.
She only understood some things after reading them in books.
Her master was right. The outside world was indeed much more complicated than the mountain.
“Don’t worry. If the Jiang family doesn’t manage him, someone will naturally manage him for them in the future.”
Chu Sihan laughed coldly.
The Jiang family had always relied on their status as the Crown Prince’s tutor to bully others all these years.
Putting everything else aside, that six-year-old Jiang Shun had even killed someone before.
If it weren’t for the fact that the tutor asked the Crown Prince for help and no one dared to offend him, the brat would have died a long time ago.
As the saying goes, one who is barefoot is not afraid of one who is not. The Jiang family had terrorized the Lin Jiang Mansion and offended many people.
He believed in karma. One day, the Jiang family would suffer a crushing defeat.
Moreover, it was unknown whether the person who will be ascending the throne would be the crown prince or not.
Of course, Chu Sihan did not tell Lu Sheng these because he felt that firstly, there was no need to. Secondly, he felt that she would not like to hear these official affairs.
“Are you hungry?” he asked, changing the topic.
“How could that be?” Lu Sheng laughed. “I just ate my fill. It hasn’t even been an hour yet.”
Chu Sihan nodded. “Then, pack up. I’ll change my clothes and bring you out for a walk.”
Lu Sheng’s eyes lit up and she nodded frantically. “Okay!”
She had long wanted to go shopping.
