Taoye stood at the door, refusing to give in, but the servants were extremely embarrassed. Logically speaking, if the fifth young master was not here, the matters in the yard should be left to Manager Zhao. But who knows, now the fifth young master dotes on Taoye the most. Girl, how dare they touch the young master's people.
The second young master’s broken leg is not a ready-made example.
"Why don't you hurry up and stop me?"
Seeing the hesitation of the boys, Zhao Jin shouted in a louder voice and winked at Qing Xing.
"Don't worry, sister Taoye, I will put these things inside and they will come out soon!"
Qing Xing said politely, but she kept walking and was about to cross Tao Ye and push the study door open.
The boys didn't dare to pull Taoye, so they stopped in front of her, preventing her from taking a step forward.
Seeing that Qingxing had opened the door and was about to walk in, Rong Jiu stepped into the yard.
"What is this doing?"
In front of the study, Qing Xing opened the door and stepped into the room with one foot. Zhao Jin stood aside and scolded the young man for stopping Tao Ye.
Taoye struggled to push away the hands of the boys.
"Fifth Young Master!"
When they saw the visitor, Zhao Jin and Qing Xing's expressions changed, and the servants also hurriedly stepped aside.
"Fifth Young Master, just now Madam sent someone over to tell me to put away these gifts given by the emperor. I thought that there were many precious Four Treasures of the Study and some unique copies in this gift, so I asked Qing Xing to put these away first. Enter the study!"
"Unexpectedly, Miss Taoye refused to let Qingxing in, as if no one was allowed to enter the study except her. If she was blocked here, the villain was afraid of hurting these royal gifts during the dispute, so he had the girl hold her! "
Zhao Jin was calmer after all. He only panicked for a moment and ran to Rong Jiu and told what happened just now.
In a few words, all disputes and faults were pushed onto Tao Ye.
After listening to Zhao Jin's words, Rong Jiu took a step forward, his eyes lingering on the faces of Tao Ye and Qing Xing.
Taoye lowered his head slightly, respectfully and calmly, but Qingxing on the side was extremely pale, and his body began to tremble slightly, and the Duan Inkstone he was holding in his hand almost fell to the ground.
"presumptuous!"
After a long time, a cold shout came out of Rongjiu's mouth, and all the servants in the yard, including Zhao Jin, knelt on the ground.
Qing Xing, who was standing opposite Rong Jiu, was even more frightened. When he knelt down in a hurry, the box in his hand actually fell to the ground.
This sound frightened Zhao Jin and his heart trembled. It was a gift from the emperor.
Gui Yun was also startled. He didn't care to wait for his master's instructions. He quickly stepped forward and half-knelt down to pick up the box. He opened it and saw that fortunately it was padded with thick yellow silk and there was nothing wrong with the inkstone.
"Master!"
Rong Jiu only casually glanced at the inkstone in Gui Yun's hand, then lowered his eyes to the person kneeling on the ground, his eyes filled with coldness and anger.
The green apricot was shaking like chaff, and was about to bend down to apologize, when suddenly the brocade boots in front of him turned around.
"Why are you blocking people from entering and neglecting the gift given by the emperor? Is your life enough to accompany you?"
This cold scolding was actually directed at Tao Ye.
Everyone in the yard was stunned. Even Gui Yun had some shock on his face. Not to mention Zhao Jin and Qing Xing, they didn't know whether to be happy or surprised.
"Get up and put these four treasures of the study on the desk!"
These words were said to Qing Xing, who had just recovered from her nerves.
"Slave, you obey!"
Qingxing agreed happily.
He took the box from Gui Yun and went to the study.
"Fifth Young Master, I understand that I am guilty. I really did not intend to neglect the gift given by the emperor!"
When Qingxing entered the door, Taoye took two steps on her knees with red eyes and gently pulled the corners of the green robes.
Rong Jiu looked down coldly, but did not pull back her robe.
When Qing Xing came out again, Tao Ye saw that Rong Jiu's anger had not diminished and he had already kowtowed.
She took the box with pen and ink in without looking away. This time she paid special attention to the things on the desk. She saw a half-folded letter with words pressed under the paperweight. After hearing the movement outside, Tao Ye also While crying to the Fifth Young Master, he took a closer look at the words revealed.
But there were not many words that could be seen, and Qingxing did not dare to move the paperweight. She only saw "Brother Wei" and "Hunting Ground", and then the final signature, which turned out to be the eldest young master Rong Yue.
Not being able to see the rest, Qing Xing hurriedly came out and saluted Rong Jiu: "Fifth Young Master, the things have been put away!"
Rong Jiu nodded with satisfaction and said to Zhao Jin: "Manager Zhao, thank you for your hard work. Come on down!"
Qing Xing saw that the fifth young master was facing her today, and his expression was rarely pleasant. She originally wanted to stay and serve while the iron was hot, but when she saw that the anger on the fifth young master's face had not diminished, she was afraid of offending herself.
Moreover, what was in the letter had to be spread out as soon as possible. After bowing, he withdrew.
After a while, only three masters and servants Rong Jiu and Tao Ye were left in the yard.
Rong Jiu glanced at Tao Ye's red forehead, turned around and entered the study with a cold face, Xingyun followed, but Gui Yun glanced at Tao Ye, and then at the back of his young master, who was a little two feet tall. The monk was confused.
"Master, this Taoye girl..."
Gui Yun couldn't hold his breath. As soon as Rong Jiu sat down behind the desk, he hurriedly spoke, but was glared at by Xing Yun and stopped again.
Rong Jiu didn't seem to notice the two people's actions. He took out the letter paper from under the paperweight and gave it to Xingyun without even looking at it: "Handle it!"
The young master deliberately let Qingxing see it!
Although Guiyun is a bit impatient, he is not a foolish person, and he has figured it out now.
I just pity Miss Taoye!
Tao Ye, who was outside the door, was still kneeling with her head bowed. She felt a cold pain in her knees and some swelling and pain in her forehead, but she felt very peaceful in her heart.
She was really showing her loyalty by blocking people from entering the study.
After all, the Fifth Young Master had just suspected himself before.
But then she was scolded unexpectedly, and the fifth young master specifically ordered Qingxing to put things in the house, and she understood.
Even though he was reassured, he still couldn't help but smile bitterly. He was really unlucky today.
As Tao Ye expected, when it was time for lunch, shortly after Qing Xing came in to serve the meal, Gui Yun came out to send a message that the fifth young master asked her to go back and think about her mistakes.
After kneeling for an hour, Taoye's knees were still a little sore. If Nanyun hadn't come over to support him, he might have had to recover for a while before he could walk back to the house.
"Girl, are you okay? It's all my fault. I stayed in the dressing room for a little longer..."
Nanyun and Taoye got along very well these days. When he came back, he saw Taoye kneeling at the door of the study. He was surprised, but he knew that this must be the fifth young master's intention and did not dare to plead for mercy.
"It's okay, you came back just in time!"
No matter what happens today, Qingxing will enter the study and see what she should see.
If Nanyun was here just now, only a few people would be punished.
"Come here and sit down, I'll press it for you!"
Xiuyin also heard the commotion outside and felt anxious, but she also knew that there was no place for her to speak here.
