Chapter 22: The Discovery of the Cave
"Lord Wang...... Forgive the courtiers for being stupid. When Su Mujiu said this, the manager hurriedly lowered his head and obediently admitted his mistake.
Su Mujiu looked at the trembling manager in front of her who confessed her mistakes at every turn, and she sighed heartily in her heart.
Then he showed a shallow smile, and said very gently and kindly: "Siguan, you don't have to apologize at every turn, you're not wrong, it was just a few words of ridicule just now." ”
Su Mujiu originally thought that after hearing his "amiable" appearance, coupled with these words of "concern", he would inevitably unload his guard in his heart.
In this way, it is more convenient for the two of them to communicate and exchange.
Who would have thought that when this manager heard this, instead of half a point of joy, his face suddenly became as pale as paper, and he knelt on the ground with a "bang", with endless panic in his eyes, "Weichen knows that he is wrong, the prince begs you not to strip Weichen of his official position, and Weichen's family still has to rely on Weichen's money to survive!" ”
Su Mujiu's eyelashes fell, and a trace of stunned eyes crossed her eyes, she couldn't believe her ears.
Seeing that Su Mujiu was silent for a long time, the manager hurriedly kowtowed and said: "Weichen, Weichen is only shallow in learning, Weichen is absurd and powerless, Weichen deserves death, I implore the prince, spare Weichen, when Weichen was in the main hall, he just wanted to seek justice for those dead subordinates - Weichen, Weichen knew that he was wrong!" ”
This sound of kowtowing made Su Mujiu's heart become a little heavy for a moment.
This is the gap between the powerful and ordinary people, obviously she is now the most important suspect, and she may lose her head at any time, but she is still in this position for a day, and the manager is afraid of her.
Because in a word, it is easy for a family of all ages to disappear together.
This was already a deep-rooted thought in Si Guan's mind, and her being so amiable was not conducive to communication between the two.
Her eyes rolled to her heart.
She changed the smiling appearance just now, her eyes gradually became cold, and her bright red lips slowly opened: "Siguan, I asked you to come to help me find out the truth, I still remember the previous things, if you behave well this time, I will not blame the past!" ”
The steward listened, and for a moment his eyes lit up.
It seems that it is not possible to take the Huairou route, and it is not as effective as her cold statement.
Su Mujiu cleared his throat and continued: "However, if you want to stay by my side to do things, you must abide by the following points, and if you can't do it at all, I will cut your official position." First, don't kneel at every turn, I'm superstitious and don't like to watch people kneel. Second, don't apologize at every turn, if I say you're wrong, you can apologize again. ”
As soon as Su Mujiu said this, the manager who was still kowtowing his head didn't dare to knock it directly, and got up from the ground without stopping, with a respectful face, and didn't dare to apologize again.
Su Mujiu was very satisfied with this result, lowered her long eyelashes to cover the light of the glass in those eyes, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly, and she slowly squatted down.
Her gaze gradually fell on the little thing that was still eating cabbage, and her eyes were like paint.
Right now, this little thing is the most crucial witness.
"Steward." Su Mujiu's lips like cherry blossom petals were gently raised, and her voice was as beautiful as a spiritual spring through a mountain stream.
"What does the prince command?" The steward asked, wiping the blood from his forehead.
"You go to the hole of this little thing and take a look, maybe there will be a surprise~" Su Mujiu stretched out his finger and touched the little thing that was eating cabbage, this fluffy little obedient guy was really cute.
"Yes." The steward didn't dare to ask more, and immediately walked to the entrance of the cave with the branch, and he dug it in with the branch, and suddenly felt something soft, and his fingers trembled.
"Lord Wang, there seems to be something in here." The steward's brows gradually furrowed, how could there be such a soft object in this cave, and it felt like this object would still move.
Su Mujiu didn't even raise his eyes, and said indifferently: "It's not this, what I want is the weeds spread in this cave." ”
The manager looked at the prince who was still touching the little wombat with some surprise, and he looked completely unfazed, as if he knew what this soft thing was.
"Minister, try to see if you can get it out of it." The steward said, continuing to act.
He felt the soft thing move, and he subconsciously bounced away, shaking off the branch in his hand.
Su Mujiu heard the movement, raised his eyes, and saw a snow-white rabbit coming out of the hole, and saw the cabbage, the long beard moved, but he hesitated and didn't dare to move forward.
But there was a squirrel behind the rabbit, and when the squirrel saw the cabbage, he also rushed over, and didn't care about eating so much, after all, it could absorb water.
Gradually, other animals came out one after another, and some of them saw Su Mujiu and Si Guan, and they ran away directly, not caring about anything else at all.
In the end, only the cute wombats and cute squirrels remained.
"Lord Wang...... Why are there so many animals in this, don't you say it's a wombat's cave? The steward still didn't dare to approach at the moment, he was afraid that a snake would come out of it.
"The wombat cave is very large, and there are many holes, this fire is devastating, and Wanwu Street has spirituality, and it is normal for it to let other animals hide in it in the heart of saving lives and helping the wounded. It's you, don't be surprised, hurry up and dig out the weeds inside. ”
Su Mujiu patiently explained, and then urged the manager to act quickly, the day is already bright, if you don't hurry up, I'm afraid that the three-day deadline will come soon.
The steward could only muster up the courage to pick up the branch he had discarded, and approach it cautiously step by step.
He dug and dug through the hole again, but this time he didn't feel the fluffy hair, as if he had touched a weed.
Although he didn't know why the prince was so obsessed with the entrance of the wombat's cave, he still obeyed the order and finally pulled out all the weeds that were spread on the cave surface.
And Su Mujiu no longer touched the cute wombat at this moment, but took a step and walked to the weed pile, she didn't dislike the hair on the weed, but reached out to touch it directly.
Her fingertips rummaged through the weeds.
Finally, she found something.
"Lord Wang, you are ——?" Obviously, the manager didn't understand why the prince was so vigorous with this weed.
"Don't you see that there's grain and grass in there?" The corners of Su Mujiu's mouth hooked, and the inside of her eyes was a glass like water.
"What? Grain and grass?! Si Guan was stunned, he couldn't care so much, and he followed Su Mujiu's appearance and rummaged among the weeds.
Until ——。
His fingertips touched a few grains of grass, and his eyes hid endless shock.
