I want to be a good minister

Chapter 458
This time, Cen Xi knew something was up.

"Damn the slaves, they disturbed the master's meal—" Cai Yu immediately turned pale, and as soon as she turned her head, she asked others to drag the dead maid out.

At this time, there is no need for Caiyu to order, the two maids beside him have already driven the maid and went out, the maid did not resist, and let the two drive.

"Wait—" Cen Xi frowned, no matter how he looked at it, he felt that the group of maids on the ground were trembling, as if they were terribly afraid of her.

Suddenly all the maids froze, and the timid maids had already started to tremble.

"Master, please forgive me, it's the servants who deserve to die—" Caiyu immediately kowtowed fiercely, and the rest of them immediately came to their senses and kowtowed immediately.

"Stop—all get up and talk—" Cen Xi's voice became louder, a group of maids didn't dare to move, they only watched Caiyu's movements.

"Master, the servants are not serving you well, please..." Cai Yu immediately said tremblingly.

"It's none of your business, get up—" Cen Xi suddenly felt that it was very troublesome to communicate, "Caiyu, this is the master's order."

Caiyu didn't dare to refuse, so she stood up tremblingly, her face pale.

"Come here—" Cen Xi waved to the maid who was being driven, trying his best to speak in a gentle voice.

Everyone was stunned, but they didn't dare to move. When the maid heard Cen Xi's voice, she was stunned for a moment, then knelt down and took a few steps forward after hearing Cen Xi's voice, and came directly in front of Cen Xi.

"Master, master, this servant is willing to exchange my life for my sister's life, I beg the master to save my sister—" The maid immediately kowtowed fiercely, her forehead was directly on the jade brick, and there was a loud bang. Don't knock your head off the posture of non-stop hands.

"I'm afraid of seeing blood, stop knocking—" Cen Xi said.

The maid was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly became a little afraid.

"Tell me, where is your sister working, and what mistakes did she make?" Cen Xi originally didn't intend to take care of such things, but since he was dependent on others and needed a few capable helpers, Cen Xi planned to help as long as he could. help.

The maid on the ground was stunned for a moment, and then she understood that the master didn't remember the reason why her sister wasn't there to serve her.

"Master, you are the servant girl who is on duty outside the palace and is responsible for cleaning the utensils today." The maid said immediately.

Cen Xi couldn't understand, the maid in charge of scrubbing?

"what's your name?"

"My maidservant Xizhu, my maidservant's older sister is called Xiju, today my elder sister has been taken by Lord Qu because she was in charge of scrubbing the reclining chair, I'm afraid she will die—"

Cen Xi frowned, reclining chair?The reclining chair she fell off just now suddenly understood a little, and immediately looked at the maids behind her.

"All the few people were taken away?" Cen Xi asked, and then looked directly at Caiyu who was at the front, "Caiyu, what do you say—"

"Master, Master Qu took away four people, all of whom were maids who touched or moved the recliner today. They were taken away half an hour ago, and now they are probably in the hands of Steward Li." Caiyu said in a calm voice. , there is no half-sentence nonsense.

"Just because I fell down today?" Cen Xi still asked a little uncertainly, and as long as he touched it, he had to deal with four people just because he fell down, and there was another one just because he scrubbed the recliner. .

"It's the servants' fault. The servants deserve death. All the reclining chairs in this hall have been replaced." Seeing this, Caiyu knelt down. Cen Xi's anger in front of him, but the maids beside him are all sharing weal and woe and suffering together to this day, Caiyu gritted his teeth and spoke again.

"Master, the two maidservants who brought the reclining chairs in the hall have been directly executed by the emperor. The four of them were unintentional mistakes. Please, master—"

"Bada——" Cen Xi dropped the chopsticks on the ground, and immediately frightened Caiyu from what he was going to say.

Cen Xi stared at a group of shivering maidservants on the ground in disbelief, and suddenly understood why she was trembling. Now that she dropped her chopsticks on the ground, would she also die?
Cen Xi stood up suddenly and walked out of the hall.

"Caiyu, Mingyu follow, follow me to see Junshang—" Cen Xi couldn't eat anymore, thinking of his panic just now, but killed two people, how could Cen Xi eat like this After eating, even my fingers trembled.

Now Cen Xi no longer wants to sell favors to buy people's hearts, but feels that he is the blood-stained executioner.

"Master—" Caiyu and Mingyu were stunned for a moment, and when they looked up, there was no shadow of Cen Xi, and they hurriedly followed.

Cen Xi came out of the main hall, walked through the corridor garden based on memory, and came directly towards the Chenyuan, a side hall on the side of the Hall of Stars. It was only later that she learned that she lived in the main hall of the Hall of Stars, and as The owner of the hall, Zong Li, lives in the side hall.

Along the way, the guards who were in a hurry to kneel and salute almost knocked their heads off, and the patrolling guards knelt down on the ground with a plop. The last two rows did not turn around, and directly hit a stone pillar on one side.

Just now when Qu Mu saw that the emperor had already started to critique papers, he recruited Qu Yu to watch over him, and was about to go to make up for sleep, but before he even walked out of the courtyard, he flew back as if his butt was on fire.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty—" Qu Mu couldn't care less, and even his voice was two points louder than usual.

There was no response from the room, Qu Mu was in a hurry, he couldn't wait any longer, the figure of His Highness had already arrived at the gate of the courtyard, and immediately pushed them away.

"Your Majesty—" Zong Li in front of the wooden table raised his head and looked at Qu Mu.

"His Royal Highness is coming—" Qu Mu didn't dare to say it a second time, because the footsteps had already reached the door, and this address could not be made public, and only a few trusted people knew it.

"Meet the master—" Qu Yu's respectful voice came from outside the door.

Qu Mu immediately retreated to the side, and Cen Xi hesitated for a second just as he stepped into the palace gate.

After all, it's someone else's territory, and she's still here to intercede.

"What's wrong? What's wrong? Or?" Zong Li had already stood up, and came out naturally, which made Cen Xi feel a little uneasy.

Cen Xi looked at Zongli in front of him, young master Yu with picturesque eyebrows and eyes, she thought that what Caiyu said was dealt with should not mean what she understood.

"What's the matter?" Zong Li glanced at the two maids who were following behind, his expression was off the line, and his frosty expression suddenly increased.

Cen Xi raised his head, pondered for a moment, then put on a smile.

"Zongli, I have a few maids in my house. The jade ribbons weaved are very interesting on weekdays, and they are also interesting. Thinking about it today, I heard from the maids that those few people were taken away by Master Qu. Can I still ask for it back?" Cen Xi smiled slightly, half of that expression was because she wanted to please her, and the other half was because the man standing in front of her was someone she admired.

"So that's the matter—" Zong Li said slowly, his peripheral vision glanced at Cai Yu and Ming Yu, and suddenly, the two of them felt their breathing stagnate, and the pores of their bodies almost froze.

"Aren't you tired after walking so far?" The next moment, I heard an extremely gentle and melodious voice, each breath was full of sincerity, but I didn't even have the slightest intention to speak to what Cen Xi asked for.
