Chapter 1224: Liu Hui's method of shirking responsibility
This black shadow saw that Tong Xu was drunk, his face was extremely ugly, and he couldn't wait to go up and slap Tong Xu twice to make him sober up.
Because the road was very close, Tong Fei didn't call a carriage, so he and Tong Xu returned home. Because he knew that Tong Xu offended his grandfather today, it also made his father unhappy. So after Tong Fei went home, he directly sent Tong Xu back to the room. Then I went to my father's room, saw my father, and told Tong Xu about being drunk.
Although Tong Nobunaga was unhappy on his face, he still felt very sorry for this little son in his heart. He didn't say anything in front of Tong Fei, and after making sure that Tong Xu was fine, he gave Tong Fei the two pills given by Han Lu, and asked Tong Fei to take one for Tong Xu, and then he didn't say anything else.
Tong Fei took the two pills and walked towards Tong Xu's room again. When he arrived at the door of Tong Xu's room, he suddenly felt a little strange, because the door was open. He clearly remembered that the door was closed when he left, and he rushed into the room without thinking about it.
But the room was already empty, and there was no shadow of Tong Xu at all.
Where did Tong Xu go!
Tong Fei's little bit of alcohol immediately woke up, did he leave by himself, or did someone else take him away?
After being stunned, Tong Fei immediately turned around and walked towards the courtyard where his father lived. For such a big thing, of course, I have to sue my father.
"Knock knock."
Tong Fei knocked on his father's door, then pushed the door and walked in, and said to his father, who was not lying down, "Father, Tong Xu is gone." ”
"It's gone!" Tong Nobunaga was also stunned.
"He's so drunk that he's unlikely to leave alone." Tong Fei said immediately.
"Gather someone to find it." Tong Nobunaga said immediately.
"Yes." Tong Fei immediately went to summon people.
Tong Nobunaga flew out of the courtyard and onto the quiet street. Looking at the empty street, he paused slightly, and then sped along the street to the east.
Tong Xu did not leave by himself, he was taken away by the person who followed them. This person carried Tong Xu, galloped away from Tong's house, and galloped straight to the southeast. He didn't dare to go back to Han Tong Town now, so he just wanted to go outside the town first, wake up Tong Xu, and talk to Tong Xu about this Han Tong Town mission.
As soon as he arrived outside the town, Tong Xu woke up, and the man threw Tong Xu on the ground. Tong Xu turned over and flew up, took two steps back, and took a closer look at this person was the second housekeeper Liu Hui, and he immediately said respectfully: "Second housekeeper." ”
"Have you forgotten what we came to Hantong Town for?" Liu Hui saw that there was no one around, so he didn't leave.
"Of course I know, help You Yu save people." Tong Xu said immediately.
"Now that You Yu is missing, you're still drunk." Liu Hui's tone was full of anger.
"Second housekeeper, it's me who is not good." Tong Xu immediately apologized, in the Liu family, he was just a martial artist cultivated by the Liu family, and his status was far inferior to Liu Hui.
Liu Hui frowned: "Let you check whether You Yu's disappearance has anything to do with the Han family, how did you investigate?" ”
"Han Lu has already guessed my purpose for returning to Han Tong Town, and it is difficult for me to get useful information out of their mouths." Tong Xu told the truth.
"Now that we have lost Youyu, if we go back like this, how can we explain to the big housekeeper." Liu Hui said angrily.
Tong Xu secretly said in his heart, you have been with You Yu, what does this have to do with me?
Liu Hui saw that Tong Xu was silent, and he said angrily: "Tong Xu, you remember for me, the reason why the big housekeeper asked you to come with you is because you are from this Han Tong Town." ”
"Yes, I know." Of course, Tong Xu understood this truth, but he now regretted coming back very much. Not only did the task not be completed, but he was also beaten, and no one gave any anger as a result.
"What's wrong with your arm?" Liu Hui asked suddenly.
"Interrupted by Han Lu." Tong Xu replied.
"This Han Lu is extremely hateful." Liu Hui gritted his teeth and said angrily.
Inadvertently, Tong Xu also noticed that there was something wrong with Liu Hui's left arm, and he asked, "Second housekeeper, your left arm is also injured?" ”
"It's also that Han Lu." Liu Hui said angrily.
When Tong Xu heard this, he chuckled in his heart, this Han Lu was really powerful, and he actually discovered Liu Hui's storage. He thought in his heart, did Han Lu know that Liu Hui was the second housekeeper of the Liu family?
Liu Hui looked at Tong Xu and said, "What do you say now?" ”
"Second butler, come and pay attention." Tong Xu said.
"It's your territory." Liu Hui said angrily.
"The second housekeeper, the big housekeeper has explained, and the first qiqi listens to the orders of the second housekeeper and You Yu." Tong Xu said immediately.
When Liu Hui heard this, he immediately said angrily: "I now order you like a way." ”
Tong Xu secretly said in his heart, now that we are all exposed, what can I do? But he couldn't contradict Liu Hui like this, so he could only say: "Second housekeeper, you hide first, and then wait and see if You Yu can appear." ”
"What if he doesn't show up?" Liu Hui asked.
"Then it means that he is already more than lucky, and we don't need to fight here for a dead man, right?" Tong Xu said.
"Tong Xu, this method of yours is not a method at all." Liu Hui said angrily: "If You Yu is really dead, our mission this time will be a failure, just wait to go back and be punished." ”
When Tong Xu heard this, he immediately said, "Second housekeeper, this is no way. Could it be that we really want to look for You Yu all over the world? Han Tong Town is so big, we have all looked for it, but we haven't found it at all. ”
Of course Liu Hui understands this truth, if You Yu is in Hantong Town, or if You Yu is fine, then do you still need to look for it?
Tong Xu continued: "I think our mission this time is too likely to fail, and I am ready to go into the mountains with the hunting team. ”
"You are willing to enter the mountain, but I am not willing. Even if You Yu is gone, we have to save the person You Yu wants to save. And only in this way may the great steward not punish us. Liu Hui said firmly.
"The Liu family took You Yu in because he was an alchemist, if You Yu died, what did the Liu family want You Changsheng to do?" Tong Xu asked rhetorically.
When Liu Hui heard this, he also felt that it made sense. He secretly said in his heart, he didn't expect that a small Han Tongzhen would stir his mind unconscious. However, after thinking about it, he felt that something was a little strange, so he said, "Are you sure that the Liu family took You Yu in just because he is an alchemist?" ”
"I don't know of any other reason than that." Tong Xu said silently.
"This bastard You Yu, I'm so angry!" Liu Hui's head was a little messy.
Tong Xu looked at Liu Hui and continued: "Second housekeeper, I think we should take the initiative to report to the big housekeeper. If we act here and do something wrong, I am afraid that the sin will be increased by the time. ”
Liu Hui looked at Tong Xu and said coldly, "I don't think you want to continue this mission?" ”
"I just don't know how to do it." Tong Xu said solemnly.
"Let me think about it." Liu Hui said angrily.
"Okay, second housekeeper, let's go back." Tong Xu said.
"You go back." Liu Hui said.
"Okay, second housekeeper, I'll go back, if something happens, we'll see you at the medicine shop." Tong Xu didn't want Liu Hui to go to his house to look for him again, if his father found out, then it was estimated that there would be another incident.
"Let me see you drunk again, and I'll ask the big housekeeper to expel you from the Liu family." Liu Hui threatened.
"Yes, Second Butler." Although Tong Xu was respectful, he was not so convinced in his heart, he thought that Liu Hui was a person with no ideas and was not worthy of being a housekeeper at all.
Tong Xu hurried towards the town, fearing that he would be taken away and his family would find out. When the time comes, he will have to explain again.
As soon as he walked a short distance, he saw that the Tong family's nursing home seemed to be looking for someone, and he knew that he had been discovered when he left the Tong family. He quietly avoided the courtyard and made a detour to the Tong family.
When he got home, he quietly returned to his room and lay down on the bed and pretended to be asleep. He made up his mind, so he said that he would go to the hut and leave the house without admitting it. It is estimated that his father and eldest brother thought he was drunk and would not ask again.
Sure enough, when the nursing home found Tong Xu, they immediately went out to find Tong Fei and Tong Nobunaga. Tong Fei and Tong Nobunaga saw that Tong Xu was asleep, but they didn't call him, and they both thought that Tong Xu had drunk too much, and they didn't see where he was when he went to the thatched house.
――-
Outside the town, Liu Hui was still standing there. He's still thinking about ways to solve the problem, and he doesn't want to be punished for not completing the task. The punishment that a martial artist like Tong Xu received may be to go into the mountains to hunt demon beasts, although his life will be in danger, but the possibility of coming back safely is even greater. Come back, and the punishment is over.
But he was a steward, and the punishment he received was likely to be demotion. In addition to the big housekeeper, the Liu family also has six housekeepers. Although these six housekeepers have different rankings, their realms are almost the same. The five butlers behind him are all waiting for him to make a mistake and be demoted, waiting to replace him as the second butler?
If you want to become a second housekeeper again, it will not be easy. Maybe it will take three years, five years, maybe ten years, or even never have the opportunity to become a second housekeeper. So he didn't want to accept punishment, he had to think of a way not to accept punishment.
The best thing to do is to pass the buck, and if the big steward thinks that he is not responsible for the failure of the mission, then he may be able to open the net.
After thinking about it, Liu Hui felt that there was only one way, and that was to shift the responsibility to Tong Xu. It is said that Tong Xu leaked the whereabouts of him and You Yu, which caused You Yu to always be there, causing him to have his arm broken.
Tong Xu is considered an intelligence officer on this mission, so the big housekeeper should believe it. He felt that the great housekeeper would definitely send a martial cultivator who could shock Han Lu to Han Tong Town to do this at that time, and if he refused to go with him on the grounds that he was injured, he might be able to escape the punishment of failing this mission. Liu Hui suddenly found that after he had been a second housekeeper for two years, his style and ability to do things had improved much better than before.
If you continue, when the big butler is old and gives up the position of the big butler, maybe you can look forward to the possibility of becoming the big butler.
After making sure to do this, Liu Hui didn't wait any longer, he smiled and galloped in the direction of Liu Yunzhou.
