Chapter 6: Killing Chickens and Monkeys (2)

Ling Yingxi realized the housekeeper's intentions and said, "Since it is said that it was stolen by the subordinates, then the people present will not be able to escape the suspicion, and when it is investigated, they will walk out from here." ”

The tone was calm and indifferent, but it was unquestionable.

Xuan'er closed the door with a rare spirit.

At this time, the subordinates both showed fear, for fear that the housekeeper would find them to be substitutes for the dead.

A hint of hatred flashed in the butler's eyes, and his fat hand clenched his fist silently.

"Leave this matter to the little one, the second lady has never taken care of these trivial matters, but she is afraid that she will be confused by the sinister person. ”

The housekeeper made a pun, one asked her to let go and handed it over to the housekeeper, and the other reminded her not to believe the rumors.

Ling Yingxi's eyes were slightly cold, and she smiled harmlessly, "What the housekeeper said is, then you might as well mention something or two on the side?"

Step by step, she set a trap and lured him into the trap.

The housekeeper heard the meaning of Ling Yingxi's words, and was a little resentful and resentful.

"Why did the second lady do such a desperate thing?" The housekeeper saw that the door was closed, so he simply broke the jar.

"Absolutely, the housekeeper said seriously, I'm just maintaining the dignity of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Ling Yingxi's eyes were full of innocence, "Didn't the housekeeper also say that he wanted to kill chickens and monkeys?"

The housekeeper narrowed his eyes, remembering more and more that Ling Yingxi was not easy to deal with.

"The housekeeper also knows that I have always been the most soft-hearted," Ling Yingxi said again, "As long as I stand up and hand over the silver taels at this time, I will be exempted." ”

On the surface, it seemed that Ling Yingxi had taken a step back, but in fact, it was also a warning to that person, if he didn't come out at this time, he would bear the consequences.

Ling Yingxi knew that that person would never stand up, this sentence was just a cover.

Sure enough, no one spoke.

"In that case, I don't need to show mercy. Ling Yingxi changed her gentleness, and her voice was cold.

"It is said that the discipline of the subordinates is all with thorn whips, right?" a slight smile tugged at the corner of her mouth, bright and moving, but dangerous.

The butler's eyes flashed, and a plan that he thought was foolproof came to his mind.

"The punishment of subordinates should be done by the small one, so as not to dirty the hands of the second lady. The butler frowned.

Ling Yingxi smiled slightly, slightly meaningful.

The butler found a whip from the cabinet beside him, with barbs on it, which was a little terrifying.

Why is there a whip in the bookkeeper?

Xuan'er was a little puzzled.

Ling Yingxi's fingers tapped the armrest, making a regular sound.

The butler glanced at a few subordinates who were shrinking back, and pointed to one of the innermost subordinates, "Twenty lashes per person, starting with you." ”

The designated subordinate Ah Fu is the most qualified in the account room, and he has high efficiency, so he has naturally become a big threat to the housekeeper.

This trick not only removes the threat, but also reduces the suspicion.

Kill two birds with one stone.

Ah Fu was so frightened that his legs weakened and he fell to the ground, but in the end he was kicked out by another subordinate.

This is man, who always chooses to be selfish in the face of life and death.

Ah Fu rolled around a few times, looking at the man who kicked him out with a resentful look in his eyes.

The man shrank back at Ah Fu's gaze and took a step back.

Without saying a word, the butler whipped Ah Fu on the back, and the barbs tore out a few pieces of flesh, splashing blood.

"Ahh Xuan'er covered her eyes and turned her back.

Ling Yingxi looked at it lightly, without any movement, as if she was watching a play.

Whip after whip, hitting Ah Fu's back, flesh and blood flying, screaming again and again.

It shows how much murderous intent the butler has.

Outside the door of the account room, there were many people around, and when they heard a scream inside, they were scared into a cold sweat.

"What's going on?" The eldest girl beside Ling Yanglu, Ju'er, was originally here to receive the moon silver, but she saw a lot of people outside the account room.

Ju'er is a celebrity next to Ling Yanglu, so her subordinates naturally want to be respectful to her.

"Miss Ju'er. "Say hello to the people.

Ju'er was even more arrogant, and waved her hand like the owner.

"Today, the second lady came to the account room to make trouble. A maid said.

Ju'er frowned, disapproving, "Isn't it the second miss?" ”

"Miss Ju'er didn't know anything, the second lady's personality changed greatly, and she suppressed the housekeeper. The maid explained.

Several other subordinates nodded their heads repeatedly.

Ju'er's eyes rolled, "What can the second miss become? Isn't it just crying, making trouble, and hanging herself?" Steward Zhang is really cowardly. ”

Ju'er looked disdainful, she had been by Ling Yanglu's side since she was a child, and naturally knew how Ling Yingxi was pressed by Miss in the first place, but she didn't dare to resist.

Yesterday, she saw that the second lady was submissive, and today she will come to make trouble, and what will she toss?

"Miss Ju'er, the second miss seems to have been prepared this time, and she will definitely find out the people behind the scenes. "The mysterious secret path of the maid god.

Ju'er squinted, a little shocked in her heart.

Have you been prepared for a long time? Find out who is behind the scenes?

Ju'er's alarm bell sounded, and her face was still the same as before.

She pretended to be calm, "That's it, since the people are being punished inside, I'll come back later." ”

With that, she turned to leave, her back a little hasty.

A few subordinates were puzzled, but they didn't think much about it, and gathered around the door to listen to the corner.

There was no screaming from inside, and it should have been twenty lashes.

Ah Fu lay on the ground dying, unwilling and resentful in his heart.

Ah Fu's side was covered with blood, and there was a lot of flesh, which was disgusting.

"You are the oldest qualified account office, and you should know that if you embezzle your master's moon silver, you will be driven out of the Prime Minister's Mansion. ”

The housekeeper didn't ask if there was theft, but directly put the charge on Ah Fu's head.

Ah Fu struggled to raise his head, "No, the minion doesn't. ”

No matter how much Ah Fu argues, it is useless, the housekeeper is determined to use Ah Fu as a substitute for the dead ghost, how can he let him walk out alive?

Ling Yingxi lowered her eyes slightly, "The housekeeper's moon silver, but it's only twenty taels, right?"

The butler's body was shocked, and the uneasy feeling spread to his chest.

"The girl that the housekeeper orders every night is not cheap, where does the housekeeper's silver come from?" Ling Yingxi seemed to be smiling, and her beautiful eyes seemed to be able to see through the housekeeper.

The housekeeper frowned, and he turned around, "According to the meaning of the second miss, it was the little one who did the stealing?"

"Heh, have you all seen it?" Ling Yingxi sneered and looked at the subordinates.

"Your butler wants to find a replacement for the dead ghost, this time it's this one, and what about next time?"

There was fear in the eyes of the servants.

"You have been helping each other with the housekeeper for many years, have you seen less of the housekeeper's deeds?" Ling Yingxi said in one sentence.

Only then did the housekeeper find out that he had been tricked by Ling Yingxi! She had long known that it was him, but she led him to jump off the cliff step by step.

Such a city is not a little girl at all, how can this still be the second lady who is only promised, cowardly and incompetent? !

"You have been with the butler for so long that you can't be ignorant, and you either choose to say it now, or you will be killed by the butler in the future. ”

Ling Yingxi saw that the heat was almost over, so she explained directly.

"The little ones have a clear conscience, and those who are clear are self-purifying, and they are not afraid that they will frame them. The butler refused to admit it.

Ling Yingxi evoked a faint smile, but it made the housekeeper feel a little cold and a little mocking.

The butler straightened his back, his face was calm, but his palms were constantly sweating.

God knows, how weak he is now, and he doesn't know why a little girl's gaze is so sharp that he doesn't dare to look at her.
