Chapter 194: Xu Zigui Tortures Liu Lu (2)
"Girl......"
Hearing that Xu Zigui was looking for red sleeves, Liu Lu looked up at Xu Zigui and stopped talking despite Xu Zigui's reprimand just now
Xu Zigui glanced at Liu Lu lightly, did not talk to her again, but turned his head and continued to talk to Zixun
"I heard that the red sleeves are uncomfortable today? What's wrong? ”
Zixun hurriedly bent his knees and replied: "Back to the county lord, today's little day of the red-sleeved sister has come, and there is something wrong with her, so she has not come out of the house"
Xu Zigui nodded, remembering that Red Sleeves did come to take a day off every small day. It's not that the red sleeves have menstrual cramps, but I don't know what's going on, whenever the red sleeves come on the first day, they are weak, they can't use their strength, and they can't help by their side, Xu Zigui allows her to not need to come over to serve every small day.
Because of Liulu's matter, she was angry, and the red sleeves didn't necessarily know about Liulu's matter, so Xu Zigui thought about it and ordered
"Go and get the Red Sleeves"
"Yes"
Zi Xun bent his knees and went to the red-sleeved house as instructed.
After the purple smoke went down, Xu Zigui sat back on the chair and drank tea leisurely, with a casual expression on his face, as if he was not interrogating people but enjoying the good red robe in the cup.
When the red sleeves came in with Zi Xun, what caught the eye was that the three of Zi Dai were kneeling on the ground with their heads down, as if they had made a big mistake, and Xu Zigui looked careless, but he didn't seem to be angry.
Because he didn't know what was going on, Red Sleeves came in and first blessed Xu Zi, and then asked, "What's wrong?" But did the three of them make the girl angry? ”
Xu Zigui didn't reply, but replied: "Originally, you shouldn't have come to you because you were unwell, but the matter was too strict, so I ordered Zixun to find you."
As he spoke, he made his hands with his head. He pointed to the small chair next to him and said, "You can sit down first."
Red Sleeves hurriedly smiled: "Where is the girl talking about, what should not be said," he said, and looked at the three people kneeling on the ground worriedly and asked, "What did Zidai do they do wrong to make the girl unhappy?"
Xu Zigui glanced at the red sleeves with a smile, put down the teacup and said, "You sit down first, I have something to ask you."
Seeing that Xu Zigui's expression was wrong, Red Sleeves hurriedly sat down. also waited for Xu Zigui to ask: "What arrangements does the girl have?" ”
"It's nothing." Xu Zigui glanced at Liu Lu and Liu Lu lightly, and asked, "I just want to ask you what the so-called thing is when Liu Lu leaves the palace today."
The red-sleeved fox was suspicious, looked at Liu Lu who was kneeling on the ground, and didn't know why Xu Zigui didn't ask Liu Lu directly, but wasted so much energy to ask her. Weigh your mouth one by one
"Slaves don't know ......"
Red Sleeves lay in bed for a day because she was unwell, and she really didn't know that Liu Lu and Yuerong were out of the palace today, let alone know what happened to them
Xu Zigui saw that the red sleeves' expression did not seem to be fake, so he didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he asked again: "Then based on your guess, why do you think Liu Lu left the palace today?"
At this time, Red Sleeves was completely stunned. I didn't know what Xu Zigui wanted to ask at all, so she glanced at Liu Lu suspiciously, thinking that Liu Lu gave herself a look, and she knew how to answer no. Who knew that none of the three Liu Lu looked at her, they all blew their heads and bit their lower lips, with a stubborn expression that they knew they were wrong but refused to say the reason
Xu Zigui looked at the red-sleeved fox suspiciously, and the three knew that although she didn't know, Liu Lu went there today. But it is clear what has happened to Liu Lu in the past few days.
Ben wanted to ask a few more words, but he was angry and saw the pale appearance of the red sleeves. Xu Zigui still couldn't bear it after all, and waved his hand to let Zixun help the red sleeves down
After the red sleeves are gone. Xu Zigui glanced at the three of them casually and asked, "Can you think about it?" Do you want to say it? ”
"Slave maid ......" Liu Lu hung her head as if she had thought for a long time, and finally made up her mind, "Slave maid...... Slave ......"
It's just that the "slave" has been for a long time, but she has never said anything. Seeing that the three of them didn't know whether to say it or not, Xu Zigui sighed, looked at Liu Lu with a smile, and pointed it out directly
"Who's that man?"
Liu Lu was shocked, and looked at Xu Zigui in disbelief with her mouth slightly open, she thought she was hiding it well, but she still didn't expect Xu Zigui to see it.
Liu Lu has served Xu Zigui since he was a child, and naturally knows Xu Zigui's temper, and knows that Xu Zigui will not be very sure that he will not wish for himself, so he closed his mouth one by one, a trace of struggle flashed in his eyes, and he spoke first when Xu Zigui spoke again
"It's the cousin of the slave maid's hometown when she was young, and she came to find the slave maid two days ago, and we were able to recognize each other."
Liulu is not a child, and Liulu's family is also considered to be solid, but when Liulu was four or five years old, there was a flood in his hometown, and he fled all the way to the capital, but he didn't want to be separated from his family on Liulu Road. After all, she was a four or five-year-old child, but unfortunately she was abducted by traffickers on the way to find her family, and she was bought back by the Qin family.
At this time, Liu Lu said that he was a cousin from his hometown who came to recognize her, but Xu Zigui frowned, and he was suspicious in his heart. It's not that I'm suspecting that Liulu isn't telling the truth, but I'm suspecting Liulu's so-called cousin.
If you find willow green, why don't your family come to recognize each other?
"Where's your mother? Have I ever been looking for you? ”
Sure enough, after Xu Zigui asked this sentence, Liu Lu was at a loss: "Cousin said...... It is said that the family is busy with farming...... The slave maid can't pull away."
It seems that Liu Lu has not been without suspicions. It's because I think it's my cousin, and I can't bear to doubt it.
Xu Zigui nodded, raised his eyebrows and looked at Liu Lu: "Take the time to let me meet your cousin"
Liu Lu lowered his head and said yes, and there was a trace of mist in his eyes. Xu Zigui sighed in his heart and asked, "Do you know why you were punished for kneeling?" ”
Liu Lu nodded: "The slave should not hide it from the girl, she should report to the girl from the beginning"
Xu Zigui nodded, turned his head to look at Zidai Yuerong, and the two hurriedly said: "Slaves and maids shouldn't know and help Liu Lu hide it."
Xu Zigui pretended not to hear it and continued to drink tea. Zidai knew that Xu Zigui was still not satisfied, and continued one by one
"The slave should not insist on not saying anything when the girl asks ......"
"But this time you know it's wrong?"
Without waiting for Zidai to finish speaking, Xu Zigui put down the teacup and interrupted her nonchalantly. Zidai blushed when Xu Zigui said it, and hung her head and didn't know what to say.
This time, Liu Lu has already recruited all of them, so she doesn't have to help hide it, but she has touched Xu Zigui's scales like this, knowing that no matter what she says, Xu Zigui will not be able to dissipate her anger for a while. I had to hang my head and stop talking
Xu Zigui looked at Yuerong and Liu Lu for a while. said: "You two go out and kneel outside, and no one is allowed to get up without my order."
After speaking, he looked at Zidai and said, "You stay"
Several people bent their knees, and Liu Lu and Yuerong knelt outside the hall. Fortunately, it is now close to dusk, and the sun is not very big, but the evening breeze in early spring is a little cold, which makes the two of them shiver from the cold. Especially willow green. When I went to see my lover today, I naturally dressed up how to be pretty. Naturally, it doesn't take a lot to wear. This time, he was shivering in the cold wind.
The two of them outside the house were shivering by the cold wind, and Zidai inside the house was no better, and they were almost frozen to death by the cold emanating from Xu Zigui's body.
Xu Zigui didn't say anything, just carefully combed the teacup with a few tea leaves floating on it. Just don't go to see Zidai. This made Zi Dai kneel on the ground very tormented, and finally couldn't help but open her mouth first
"Girl......"
"I also know that I am your girl," Xu Zigui raised his eyebrows. interrupted Zi Dai's words and glanced at Zi Dai deeply. He said with a seemingly casual look: "I thought you had forgotten who your master was."
Although Xu Zigui has a modern soul, he can survive by natural selection, and this era is this rule. The master is the master, the slave is the slave, and the slave's obedience to the master's arrangement is the rule of this era, although Zidai is not those ambitious maids who want to climb to the master's head, but people are habitual creatures, if she has to change this rule from the beginning, so that they don't have to do it completely according to their own instructions, and when they are used to it, if she has something urgent to do in the future, they will also habitually slack off.
Zidai heard Xu Zigui's slightly sarcastic voice, blushed with shame, and hung her head to admit her mistake: "It's not a slave, it's just a ......."
Xu Zigui interrupted again: "Just what? Just because Liu Lu told you not to let you tell me, you would rather die than recruit? Is Liu Lu your master or am I your master? ”
"What's the matter, the kneeling maids inside and outside the house," Without waiting for Xu Zigui to reprimand Zidai, Mo Leyuan smiled and opened the curtain and came in from outside and said with a smile: "It's not that I said you, I envy these maids around you, you have to have rules, you have to look like you, you have to be sensible and measured, what's wrong with you today, let you be punished together?" ”
"Why are you here?" Seeing Mo Leyuan, Xu Zigui hurriedly put down the teacup in his hand and got up accordingly: "Don't let a maid come in and report it"
"It's nothing," Mo Leyuan smiled and took Xu Zigui's hand and sat down with Xu Zigui: "I just came back from the queen mother, so I came to see you...... Zidai ...... them"
"It's nothing," Xu Zigui shook his head with a smile: "I'll punish them for their mistakes."
Mo Leyuan nodded, in fact, she heard Bai Lan say that there were a few maids kneeling outside the side hall, so she felt a little uneasy, thinking that Xu Zigui would not punish the maids, for fear that someone would come to deliberately find fault, and something happened to Xu Zigui again, so she came over to see what happened
Seeing that Xu Zigui was fine, it was Zidai who made a mistake and Xu Zigui was punishing them, so he put his mind at ease, got up and said with a smile: "It's okay if you have nothing to do, you are busy first, I won't bother you"
Xu Zigui naturally knew that Mo Leyuan didn't come to see her after coming back from the queen as he said, and knew that she was not worried about herself, although she was grateful, but she hadn't solved these things yet, so she no longer left her in vain, and got up with a smile and sent her to the door
"You go first, I'm still busy here, so I won't leave you in vain."
Mo Leyuan nodded and smiled: "No need to send it, I'll go out by myself."
As he spoke, he looked at Zi Dai who was kneeling on the ground, sighed, but still didn't say anything, patted Xu Zigui's hand and walked out.
Xu Zigui has always disliked beating and punishing the minions, and this time he drove them to the outside of the hall to punish them for kneeling, thinking that he was really angry. Besides, this is Xu Zigui's family matter, and she didn't have much to say, so she sighed and walked out without saying anything.
After Mo Leyuan left, Xu Zigui sat down again, picked up the embroidery on the table and asked casually
"Do you know why they are made to kneel outside the temple?"
Zi Dai nodded: "Because they left the palace without reporting to their masters"
Not to mention the past, only in the past few days, Ji Mingyue has been coveting the position of the crown princess, and she must have been staring at Xu Zigui to death, so she wanted to catch her wrong, but she could go to the queen mother to publicize it. Even if it is a small mistake, it is estimated that Ji Mingyue will be bigger, let alone such a big thing as Liu Lu leaving the palace without permission!
Zi Dai naturally knew the stakes, but she thought that Liu Lu and her cousin hadn't seen each other for a long time, and that there should be nothing wrong with Yuerong, so she moved her compassion and let them out
After Xu Zigui glanced at Zidai, he put down the embroidery in his hand and said lightly
"You are knowingly committing a crime, and you are making a mistake on top of a mistake. If you are a maid like you, who is all based on her own mood and does not think about her masters at all, if she befriends the enemy in the future, and then sells me because she can't bear to refuse the demands of others because of a moment of compassion? Let's go, I don't dare to use a maid like you anymore."
Where is Xu Zigui really willing to drive Zidai away? Not to mention that Zidai has always been cautious and subtle, and she is also very effective in doing things, just saying that Zidai has served her since she was a child, and she can be regarded as growing up with her, Xu Zigui has long regarded her as a sister in her heart, how can she really be willing to drive her away? It's just to scare her.
Zidai thought that Xu Zigui really wanted to drive her away, and for a while, anxious tears came out, pulling Xu Zigui's trouser leg and crying
"Girl, girl, the slave knows that she is wrong, the slave and the slave really know that she is wrong, how you punish the slave and the slave, don't dare to let the slave go, girl"
While talking, he was about to kowtow, but was stopped by Xu Zigui
Xu Zigui sighed: "I only want to ask you, if Lan Xiang and Red Sleeves commit such a thing in the future, will you still help hide it like this?" ”
Zi Dai shook her head with tears in her eyes and choked up: "No, the slave will not be so confused again, the girl will forgive the slave this time."
Xu Zigui nodded, and first ordered Zi Xun, who was guarding the door outside: "Go and call Liu Lu and Yuerong in."
After speaking, he took a deep look at Zi Dai, patted her hand and sighed
"Rise up first" (to be continued)
