Chun Tao did not ask why and carefully folded the paper, placing it into her sleeve and nodding solemnly, "Miss, don't worry."
"Miss Bai." Chun Yan pulled back the curtain and entered, curtseying, "Guard Lu Ping has reported that the young master retrieved from the estate has already been settled in Qingming Courtyard. However, it seems he won't be able to get out of bed for at least half a month."
Just half a month, he got off easy.
"Hmm." Bai Qingyan nodded, "I understand. Tell Uncle Ping to have someone guard Qingming Courtyard well. No one should enter or leave arbitrarily to prevent the little fourth from using a whip without regard. Today has been hard on him; let Uncle Ping go back to rest early."
Lu Ping emerged from the inner courtyard, carrying two bottles of wine and some medicine to Qin Shangzhi. While changing Qin Shangzhi's bandages, he recounted the events at Manjiang Tower today, full of worry.
