Chapter 278
Chu Liyue originally wanted to say a few words to the chief steward, but now she doesn't want to talk to him a word.

She lightly stroked her sleeves, and two attendants hurried forward, one helped her arrange her collar and bun, and the other helped her arrange her skirt and belt, completely treating the chief steward as if he were a transparent person.

The chief steward's face couldn't help but gloomy.Although he is a housekeeper, he is the Duke's confidant, and he controls all the common affairs of the entire Chu family. Even the masters will give him a smile when they see him.Although Chu Liyue is a eldest lady in name, her parents have both died, and the big steward is very clear about the attitude of the uncle, the Duke of the country, towards her.

For such a young lady who has no reputation, she is not satisfied with being so polite and considerate to her, what else do she want?
Presumably she has not been at home for the past two years, so she doesn't know how powerful the chief executive is.

The chief steward took a step forward, raised his voice and said, "Miss, the Duke is here to invite you!"

This time Chu Liyue reacted, she turned her head slowly and looked at the chief manager with no expression on her face.

When Chu Liyue was not around, Chu Qingxiu and the others were quite angry with the chief executive, but now with Chu Liyue's backing, they directly stepped forward and scolded: "Where did the servants come from? They don't understand any rules. Is there any place for you to yell in front of the master?"

The chief steward turned his head abruptly, staring at Chu Qingxiu fiercely: "What are you, dare to point fingers in front of me?"

Chu Liyue's face darkened: "I haven't been back for two years, and the rules of the Chu family have become more and more chaotic. How dare a servant dare to play prestige in front of me?" Her voice was not high, but her eyes were as cold as a knife. The chief steward, who was about to have an attack, shuddered all over his body, and actually forgot what he wanted to say.

"Kneel down." Chu Liyue spit out two words lightly, and the chief manager suddenly raised his head with a stern look on his face.He finally understood that this young lady was deliberately trying to find fault with him!
But how could he kneel down to a vain young lady!It's easy to kneel today, but how can you convince the crowd in the future?

If Chu Liyue wanted to lend him to the Duke of the country, and to step on him to gain the prestige in the Chu family, he would not give in.The big deal is to make the matter worse, and go to the Duke of the country to make a comment.The Duke of the State knew how disgusted he was with this niece.

After thinking it over, the Chief Steward stiffened his neck and was about to speak when he felt a heavy pressure coming from all directions, as if the whole world was on his shoulders.At the same time, countless icy breaths penetrated into his body from the pores all over his body, and he saw countless corpses all over the field in a trance, and the blood condensed into a viscous liquid, submerging his head, making him almost unable to breathe.

Everyone only saw that the senior manager was suddenly sweating profusely, his whole body trembling, and he fell to the ground all of a sudden.

Chu Liyue snorted coldly and said, "One pustule is also worthy of being the chief steward of my God of War family? It really embarrasses my Chu family."

She flicked her sleeves and walked towards her residence.Chu Qingxiu smiled and turned her head to look at the chief steward who was still lying on the ground trembling, and said, "Where there is a master, there must be a servant!"

The servants standing behind the chief steward hid their heads in their arms desperately, pretending that they hadn't heard the words pointing at the Duke.Chu Liyue's faint voice came from the front: "Our Chu family is a thousand-year-old family. Some things should be tactful and subtle, not so straightforward."

The servant who had seen Chu Liyue go crazy before said: Isn't it the young miss who speaks the most straightforwardly?
Chu Nianzhi said: "This dog has today!"

Chu Liyue glanced at her sideways: "Does he still dare to bully you?"

Chu Nianzhi and Chu Qingxiu were completely disappointed in Chu Zhe, and they said without hesitation that during Chu Liyue's absence, the chief steward deliberately deducted their yard expenses, and Chu Nianzhi and the others were ridiculed by him when they came to the door .

What the chief steward said at that time was very unpleasant, and he said between the lines that they hugged the wrong thigh, and that Chu Liyue hadn't come back for so long might have had an accident outside and would never come back.If Chu Liyue died outside and never came back, wouldn't the Chu family still pay them expenses according to the rules?The Chu family would have been defeated long ago.

Chu Qingxiu almost got into a fight with the chief steward. If Chu Nianzhiqiang hadn't pulled her back, the guards on the chief steward's side who were eager to fight might have gone up to beat them.Once the incident became serious and it fell into Chu Zhe's hands, the two of them might have to go underground to meet Chu Wei and Chu Gaoyi.

Chu Liyue's eyes narrowed slightly, and a cold light flashed past.

Not long after Chu Liyue returned to the residence, the second steward came to the door in person. His posture was much lower than that of the chief steward who made a fool of himself in public.He had a gentle smile on his face, a respectful expression, and a respectful manner. He bent at a full ninety degrees when saluting, and he could hear every word carefully.

"Miss, there is a distinguished guest coming to visit. The Duke is accompanying the guest. He sent me to invite the eldest lady." The soft tone of the second steward surprised the servants who followed him. The favored master also acted with his nostrils upturned, it was like a different person in front of the eldest lady today.

But thinking about the tragic situation of the chief steward, they all understood the change of the second steward.

"What distinguished guest?" Chu Liyue asked casually as she sat on the soft couch and let the maid gently polish her nails.

The second steward didn't dare to be negligent, and quickly bowed and replied, "It's His Royal Highness Prince Jin and a young lady."

Chu Liyue raised her finger, checked her nails against the light, and changed her hand with satisfaction: "Who is that lady from?" Jin Wang Huan Yunche?She hasn't come back for more than two years, Huan Yunche doesn't know if it's in his arms or what feeling?Now he dares to bring a woman directly to the Chu family to show off his might to her?
What kind of woman made him so confident?

The second steward struggled for a while, but chose to tell the truth what he had heard, so as not to offend the eldest lady and end up in the same fate as the chief steward.

He took a step forward, and replied in a low voice: "I heard that it seems to be from some hidden sect, and his identity is extraordinary."

Hidden sect, that is a high and immortal existence.It is said that anyone randomly sent by the Hidden World Sect is a bead master, and above the bead masters, there are existences with higher cultivation levels.

Isn't the reason why Duke Guo made friends with His Royal Highness King Jin just to get into the hidden world sect?You see, the Second Young Master really joined the Hidden World Sect.With the hidden sect as the backer, who else is the Duke afraid of?No matter how powerful Chu Yuan is, when the time comes, the Second Young Master will invite Master to support him, and he will definitely suppress Chu Yuan and his group with ease!
Chu Liyue said "oh", and waited for the maid to trim ten fingers for herself, then slowly got up and said, "Let me change my clothes, and then go to see the guests with the second steward."

Although the second steward was very anxious, he didn't dare to show a little on his face, he just nodded with an apologetic smile: "Yes." He didn't even dare to say a single unnecessary word.

It has been four or five years since Chu Ren and his wife passed away, and Chu Liyue has already passed the filial piety period, so after a while she changed into a big red dress and walked out.

She wore a shocking bun on her hair, and a few hairpins inlaid with rubies and round black crystals were inserted in the bun. On her snow-white wrists, she wore a pair of blood jade inlaid gold hollow cloud bracelets. Thin feather cloak, under the cloak is a red palace dress, embroidered with countless white flowers on the radiant red fabric, each of which is different.

The long skirt dragged on the ground, not only did not look cumbersome, but it even made Chu Liyue's slender figure and handsome appearance. Coupled with her sculpted eyebrows and phoenix eyes, it seemed like a fairy came to the world, and a fairy came to the world.

At that moment, the second manager couldn't help being amazed.Many people said that sisters Chu Mingyu and Chu Mingzhu were outstandingly beautiful, but if they stood beside such a grand lady, they would be crushed into little maids.

The Second Steward's eyes were almost glued to Chu Liyue's body, but it was the servant behind him who gently tugged at his sleeves, which brought him back to his senses, causing him to break out in a cold sweat.Although this person has an extraordinary appearance and bearing, his temper is not something ordinary people can handle.

He quickly lowered his head and narrowed his eyes, and followed Chu Liyue out the door step by step.

Arriving outside the gate of the main courtyard in a small flying boat, Chu Liyue stepped out of the flying boat lightly, and two attendants helped her arrange her clothes and jewelry carefully, and then helped her in, one from the left and the other from the right.

As soon as she entered the main room, the first thing Chu Liyue saw was Chu Zhe's dissatisfied face.

Seeing Chu Liyue, who was dressed up, Chu Zhe's face was a bit ugly: "You are here, and it is really rude to make a distinguished guest wait for you for so long!"

Chu Liyue smiled lightly, and her voice was crisp and clear: "Is the Duke joking? People like us, when we go out to visit, who doesn't send someone to send a post to make an appointment before coming to the door? How can they come without saying a word?" , and blame the host for being late and making him wait for a long time? That's not a distinguished guest, but an evil one, right?"

Chu Zhe's face froze, and he raised his hand in the direction of the guest, "You made Your Highness and Fairy Bai laugh. Li Yue's words were impolite, please forgive me, Your Highness and Fairy Bai."

Although Chu Liyue didn't look sideways, she had already seen the so-called honored guests over there clearly.

Not to mention Jin Wang Huan Yunche, who hasn't seen him for more than two years, still looks handsome and elegant, but his eyes are always lingering on the woman beside him, his expression is full of concern and love for this woman.

On the other hand, the woman sitting next to Huan Yunche, dressed in a snow-white dress, seemed to be spotless, with picturesque eyebrows and a gentle temperament, she looked like a beautiful lady in a picture, and she looked like she had never set foot in the world. Fairy, I can't help but feel pity.Presumably this is the real honored guest from the hidden sect.

After hearing Chu Zhe's words, the white fairy said softly, "Miss Chu said that we were indeed reckless this time, and rushed to the door without posting a post first. It's no wonder that Miss Chu couldn't get away."

She smiled before she spoke, her tone was gentle, and she seemed very reasonable when she spoke, and Huan Yunche's eyes were flickering with tenderness.

"If you want to say it's rude, we should be rude." Fairy Bai nodded slightly to Chu Liyue, with a friendly gesture.

Chu Liyue kept a faint smile on her face, neither feeling disgusted nor moved by the white fairy's overtures.

She sat down in front of Huan Yunche and Fairy Bai, and sat silently.

Chu Zhe cleared his throat, and said in a soft tone as much as possible: "Li Yue, His Royal Highness Prince Jin and Fairy Bai are here to see you."

Chu Liyue put the little black tiger on her knee, stroked it lightly, without raising her eyelids: "Thank you."

Chu Zhe raised his eyebrows: "Liyue, what's your attitude?"

Chu Liyue raised her eyes and looked at Chu Zhe with a smile that was not a smile: "What kind of attitude does the Duke want from me?"

Chu Zhe felt a chill on the back of his neck for no reason, but he didn't want to show his timidity in front of outsiders, so he forced himself to reprimand, "Chu Liyue!"
