He deliberately left this guard at his residence so that he could find and inform him as soon as possible in case something unexpected happened.
If nothing major happened, he should have stayed at home.
Now, he suddenly appeared here. Could it be that there was a fire in his own backyard?
Su Chen asked in a deep voice: "But what happened?"
The guard dismounted, held up his hands and said, "Reporting to the Lord Protector, the lady said she has something important to do with you, so I have the guts to bring her here to find you!"
Husband...ma'am?
Hearing this, Su Chen frowned and immediately understood what it meant.
Presumably the lady the guard was talking about was Lotus Sun.
"Um."
Su Chen nodded and asked, "Where is Madam now?"
"Madam is in the carriage behind. She should be there after a stick of incense. I'm just leading the way for Madam."
The guard replied respectfully.
"Okay, let's go find Madam."
Because the terrain in the mountains and forests is steep and it has begun to snow, Su Chen is worried that Sun Rong is now weak and will catch the cold in this environment and actively look for her.
After organizing the team, Su Chen walked out of the forest.
Because of the snow, he should be able to save a lot of time during this period.
…
After leaving the forest and coming to the road, Su Chen didn't wait long before he saw a carriage slowly approaching.
Judging from the style of the carriage, it must be Lotus Sun.
"Lord Protector!"
Seeing Su Chen right in front, the coachman stopped the carriage and said to the carriage: "Madam, we have found the Protector!"
Hearing this, Lotus Sun in the carriage was overjoyed and hurriedly opened the curtain, just in time to see Su Chen walking towards her.
"Protect..."
"Don't come down. It's cold outside. If you have something to say, please tell me inside."
Just as Sun Rong wanted to get off the carriage, Su Chen stopped her.
The maid also consciously got off the carriage, leaving Su Chen and Sun Rong alone.
"Go back first."
Su Chen ordered the driver.
"yes!"
"You are looking for me in such a hurry. What happened?"
Su Chen asked Sun Rong.
"Lord Protector, I beg you, you must save my parents and my sister, they are all innocent!"
After Su Chen asked the question, Lotus Sun could no longer control her emotions and her eyes filled with tears.
Hearing this, Su Chen was a little confused, but soon understood why Lotus Sun suddenly said this.
"Don't worry, I told the guards as early as last night that we must protect them."
"Probably there will be news about them tomorrow morning."
Su Chen took Sun Rong into his arms and comforted her softly.
"Well, thank you Lord Protector for your kindness!"
Rong Sun had no doubts about what Su Chen said.
With this person's status, he will definitely not deceive himself.
Although he had not told Su Chen about the appearance and characteristics of his family members in detail, with the energy Su Chen had at his disposal, it would not be difficult to find them.
For this, Rong Sun was grateful from the bottom of her heart.
Su Chen did this not only to protect her family, but also to protect her little self-esteem...
If Su Chen decided to rescue his family because of his relationship with him last night, then all this would look like an abnormal transaction.
In that case, from now on, Lotus Sun would never be able to face Su Chen in a normal manner...
Although Sun Rong knew that the Protector had already had the idea of moving her into his house, if this matter was not handled properly, Sun Rong might be like a puppet again in her future life.
Rong Sun has always respected Su Chen extremely, like a god.
Before, Lotus Sun never thought that she might have any intersection with the Protector.
In these short two days, she felt like she was in a dream...
However, even if this is just a dream, she is still willing to indulge in it.
Seeing that Sun Rong was in a daze, Su Chen asked, "What are you thinking about?"
Hearing this, Lotus Sun immediately came back to her senses and said, "It's nothing, I just feel like everything lately seems so unreal."
"Not true?"
Looking at Lotus Sun in front of him, even Su Chen felt a little unreal.
Yesterday afternoon, Rong Sun was still an assassin who failed to assassinate her, but today she was his woman in the blink of an eye.
Perhaps, this is just fate playing tricks on people...
Su Chen said: "The matter in Guanzhou has been almost settled. In two days, I will go to the other two states. I should be busy by then."
"At the moment, although there is heavy snow to help, if the locust plague is not eliminated for a day, we cannot take it lightly."
"I don't know if I will have extra time to spend with you then. How about I arrange for you to be reunited with Changan first?"
Regarding Su Chen's suggestion, there was a trace of confusion in Su Chen's beautiful eyes.
Chang'an City is such a strange place to her.
There, she had no relatives. Although she had a relationship with Su Chen, her heart was always inexplicably empty...
Moreover, if she goes to Chang'an, it means she will meet Princess Changle, Su Chen's official wife...
Seeing that Lotus Sun didn't reply for a long time, Su Chen roughly guessed some of her thoughts.
"The north is not at peace now, and no one knows what dangers are lurking in the dark. If you really want to stay, I may not be able to protect you."
"But when you return to Chang'an City, I guarantee that no one in the entire Tang Dynasty will dare to touch you!"
Lotus Sun's eyes were struggling.
Su Chen was right. If he stayed, he might be more of a drag.
However, she really didn't want to say goodbye to Su Chen so soon...
"Don't worry, Lord Protector. I can take care of myself. When it comes to martial arts, I'm no worse than any of the guards around you. Please let me follow you!"
Sun Rong looked at Su Chen firmly.
Seeing this, Su Chen sighed softly in his heart.
Why is she such a stubborn girl again...
"Oh well."
Su Chen knew that he could not move Lotus Sun.
With a personality like hers, she basically believes that it is difficult for others to change something.
"But we agreed first that you can't go out with me then and you have to stay in the house, okay?"
"Uh-huh."
Sun Rong nodded obediently.
For her, as long as she can be by Su Chen's side, even if it's only when he's free to rest.
She knew that the boy in front of her, who was one or two years younger than her, was not responsible for the love between children, but for the whole world!
Sun Rong gently leaned on Su Chen's shoulder.
Su Chen smiled slightly, didn't say anything more, and took the initiative to take Lotus Sun into his arms.
In the carriage, the two didn't talk too much, they just relied on each other, and the atmosphere was very warm.
After returning to Guancheng, settling in Lotus Sun, and telling her to have a good rest, Su Chen was going to go to Liu Mo to ask about some matters, and then leave for Haizhou as soon as possible.
