The female steward forced a smile and agreed to the second request of the guests, exchanging one person for the prostitutes.
Amid the wild laughter of all the guests, the housekeeper Yan went back to the house to freshen up.
All the guests smiled lustfully and said that they would be naked for a while anyway, so there was no need.
The female steward still insisted on going upstairs.
It was past tea time and the housekeeper hadn't come downstairs yet.
Under the impatient urging of the guests, a beauty went to find the stewardess.
When she opened the door, she found a pool of blood on the ground. The female steward fainted and committed suicide by cutting her wrists.
inside the house.
The rest of the beauties were taken away by the oval-faced beauty, leaving only the housekeeper and Ying Chengyu.
Before, Ying Chengyu only knew that the female steward committed suicide by cutting her wrists, but he didn't know the reason. Now it was finally clear.
"Master Jun, it turns out you still have so much money." The female steward said with stars twinkling in her big eyes.
Although she is physically weak, her mental state is excellent.
Her main concern is that she is afraid of being imprisoned and being insulted, and these two reasons are ultimately due to lack of money.
When Ying Chengxuan piled a hundred golds beside her, the knot in her heart was untied. This was the reason why she could wake up.
"You are in a coma, and you still know that I have left a hundred gold coins beside you. You are truly a money-lover." Ying Chengqiao smiled and touched the white back of the female steward's neck.
Seeing that Ying Chengyuan was in a good mood, the female steward was about to say a few words of flattery.
The next second, the back of her neck went numb, her vision went dark, and she lost consciousness.
Ying Chengyu retracted his hand, the smile faded from his face, and he looked at the female steward with her head lowered in front of him angrily.
Less than three breaths passed.
The female steward who was knocked unconscious by Ying Chengyu's precise acupoints opened her eyes.
But the look in her eyes was completely different from that of the charming, vegetarian, and cheerful female steward.
When he didn't see Ying Chengyu, there was only indifference in those eyes, indifference to other people's lives and indifference to his own life.
She raised her head, and when she saw Ying Chengyu's face, the expression in her eyes changed instantly.
A drop of extremely black ink called reverence fell into a bowl of clear water called indifference.
In an instant, the water in the bowl turned black.
"Greetings, sir!"
Seeing Ying Chengjing close at hand, with an angry handsome face, the female steward moved back, but there was a wall behind her, and she couldn't break through the wall and leave.
So she hugged her legs and curled up into a ball, rubbing her buttocks against the floor until she reached the head of the bed.
Then she gathered the pillow in her arms and sat there like a ball.
Ying Chengyu suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice: "What are you doing?"
The female steward whispered: "Article 18 of the secret guard code states: Female members of the secret guard are not allowed to have close relationships with the young master."
Ying Chengyu laughed angrily.
"You and I are in charge of Bao's acquaintance!"
The female steward pulled the quilt over her body with her little hands, and said confidently: "It is the steward who is in love with the young master. What does it have to do with my secret guard Qingmei?"
…
Tingwei Mansion.
After the court meeting, Li Si returned to Tingwei Mansion to work - his work attitude has always been very high.
Just after handling three cases, the clerk of Tingwei Mansion brought his servant to him.
"Master, there is a eunuch calling himself Zhao Gao visiting my home."
Your Majesty sends Zhao Gao to visit! Your Majesty has not given up on me!
"Prepare the car!"
Li Si ran away before he could sort out the files on the long case, with a smile on his rigid face.
Officials from the Tingwei Mansion had never seen this look on Li Si's face.
Li Mansion.
A carriage stopped in front of the door.
Li Si opened the curtain of the carriage and hurriedly got out of the carriage.
"Brother Zhao."
When Li Si met Zhao Gao, he did not call him Zhao Chefu Ling this time, but called him Brother Zhao. This would make the two of them appear to be much closer.
What Zhao Gao is best at is trying to figure out the holy will. Naturally, he could see Li Si's little thoughts, so he responded.
"Brother Li."
The two laughed and took their seats respectively.
Li Si ordered his servants to prepare tea soup quickly.
The two chatted casually for a few more words, exchanging greetings about the revolutionary friendship they had when they were both doorkeepers in the palace last time.
Of course, in the conversation between the two this time, there was no such thing as "preventing people from entering the palace" or "those who trespass will die".
Soon, the servants brought the tea soup to them respectfully, and filled their teacups before leaving.
Seeing this scene, Zhao Gao sighed with emotion: "I have been serving His Majesty for these years. Today, I have experienced the feeling of being served by Brother Li."
Li Si leaned back on the brown hardwood chair and said in an envious tone: "Brother Zhao is deeply trusted by His Majesty and is envied by many people. If you want someone to serve you, you can be served, but I want to serve Your Majesty and I can't." have to."
Zhao Gao laughed, picked up the tea cup and blew on the hot air, took a slow sip and laughed at himself: "Are disabled people worthy of envy?"
Li Si said seriously: "There is a saying in "Mencius": When Heaven is about to entrust a person with a great responsibility, he must first strain his mind, strain his muscles and bones, starve his body and skin, deplete his body, and disturb his behavior through actions, so he is tempted to endure. , once benefited what it could not do.”
"This sentence means that if God wants to place a heavy responsibility on a person, he will first sharpen his will and exercise his muscles and bones, making him hungry, empty, and unable to succeed in his actions and plans. The purpose of this is to make his soul Only when his character is tempered can he increase his abilities that he originally did not have. Brother Zhao, don’t belittle yourself, God is destined for you to do something big."
After Zhao Gao listened to what Li Si said, he held the tea cup and murmured to himself: "Is it a big deal?"
After saying these three words, Zhao Gao laughed and seemed to be in a good mood.
"If Xunzi knew that you were quoting Mencius' words to enlighten me, I'm afraid he would expel you from his school."
"Teachers have no family views." Li Si said with a smile, but a trace of loneliness flashed in his eyes.
Zhao Gao clicked his tongue and exclaimed: "Xunzi is really a noble man."
The two chatted and joked for a while, and Zhao Gao looked around to see that no one was around.
Then he stuck his head over, as if he wanted to say something to Li Si and was afraid of being overheard by outsiders.
Li Si's heart skipped a beat.
Zhao Gao is His Majesty's confidant. What he can know and tell me must be His Majesty's permission!
I can't hide my excitement. When Zhao Gao goes back, all my performance will be truthfully reported to His Majesty.
When the time comes, His Majesty will know that I have such an attitude towards his orders, and if he has any more favorable impressions of me in his heart, it will be earned.
So he listened with excitement on his face.
"A few days ago, a decree to be issued was stained with blood, so Your Majesty ordered me to make a new copy. Is that blood left by Brother Li?"
Li Si's heart was beating wildly.
This time he tried desperately to hide his emotions, but he couldn't!
He was shivering all over, his whole body was cold, and his eyes were frightened.
Those who peek at the will are the Yi tribe!
