Chapter 28 Chapter Twenty-Eight

The gate of Qingshan Courtyard was kicked open with a bang, and the subordinates of the old master Zhuge rushed into Qingshan Courtyard like wolves and tigers. Huan'er and other young maids were squatting on the porch to wipe antique vases, and they were startled when they heard the sound. Immediately jumped up. Zhuge Yue had just been called by Zhuge Huai to the Hongshan Courtyard, Zhu Cheng and several other servants and guards were also absent.Zhuge Yue was so quiet, there weren't many people in the courtyard, and at this moment, only these few servant girls were left.Huan'er was considered to be the older maidservant, but her face was still pale from fright, she stepped forward tremblingly and said, "Who are you? Why are you so bold, don't you know that this is the fourth young master's yard?"

"Girl, we are here to catch escaped slaves, please forgive me if I offend you." "How did the slaves come to us?" Huan'er heard the other party's tone was polite, and she became more courageous, and said confidently, "Which yard are you slaves, why don't you have any rules?" "We are the subordinates of the old lady in the other courtyard. If the girl wants to file a complaint, just go to the fourth young master. We will inform the old lady later." Upon hearing the old master's name, Huan'er immediately fell silent, and said with little confidence: "We didn't see any slaves, you guys, don't mess around."

A servant stepped forward and said, "That's the house. I saw her get in through the window with my own eyes." "Ah!" Huan'er was startled, and shouted: "That is the room of the young master's personal maid, you are not allowed to go in." Steward Zhu glanced at Huan'er suspiciously, and said in a deep voice, "Go in and arrest people." "No!" Just as Huan'er was about to step forward, she was grabbed tightly by a big man. Seeing everyone rushing in like wolves and tigers, the girl screamed in fright, tears rolling down her cheeks.

"I wish the steward, it's her!" "Xing'er!" Huan'er yelled, turned her head and shouted loudly: "You have arrested the wrong person, this is the maid in our yard, not the slave you are looking for!" Steward Zhu gave Huan'er a cold look, and said in a deep voice, "I've seen a lot of little slaves like you who protect each other. I advise you to be honest, otherwise it won't be good for you if things get up." Say hello A group of servants walked out of Qingshan Courtyard with Chu Qiao. "Xing'er!" Huan'er yelled, caught sight of the last servant of the Zhuge Mansion, stepped forward and grabbed his hand, and said, "Aren't you the servant of Steward Zhu Shun? You brought them here What? Get Xing'er back quickly!"

The servant was confused, and he also watched the little slave turn over and jump into the room with his own eyes. He didn't expect that the maid of Qingshanyuan would know her well, and pushed Huan'er away: "Don't mess around, they are all Butler Zhu decided to give it to the old lady's slave girl, no matter how busy you are, I will send you along." After a while, the room was empty, Huan'er sat on the ground dumbfounded, all the little maids stood timidly behind, and none of them dared to move forward. The girl stood up suddenly, wiped the tears from her face, and ran quickly towards the Hongshan Courtyard.

Zhuge Yue was discussing matters in Zhuge Huai's study, when suddenly he heard Zhu Cheng say outside: "Fourth young master, Huan'er just came to report that he has something important to see you." Zhuge Yue frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Is there anything that you can't talk about when you go back? The more unruly you are, let her go back and wait." There was a dead silence outside the door, but after a while, Zhu Cheng knocked on the door again and said, "Fourth young master, yes, it's Miss Xing'er, who was taken away by Zhu Shun's butler."

With a bang, the door was pulled open, Zhuge Yue frowned, and said in a deep voice with an ugly expression, "What did you say?" Zhu Cheng's forehead was dripping with cold sweat. He glanced at Zhuge Huai who was full of suspicion inside, licked his lips, and said slowly: "The people in the housekeeper Zhu said that one of their slaves escaped, but they insisted that Miss Xing'er was the escaped slave. People took it away from Qingshanyuan." "Take it away? Where to take it?" "Say yes, say it was sent to the old man's other courtyard." For a moment, Zhuge Yue's face was as ugly as it was.

"Perhaps he caught the wrong person. Ever since Zhu Shun was injured, his actions have become more and more inappropriate." Zhuge Huai stepped forward, patted Zhuge Yue's shoulder, and said with a light smile, "Fourth brother, Since it's sent to the second master's house, forget it, a servant girl, and later the eldest brother will pick a few clever ones and send them to your yard as compensation, and I promise not to let you suffer." "How long have you been walking?" As if he didn't hear Zhuge Huai's words, Zhuge Yue fixed his eyes on Zhu Cheng, his voice was low and his breath was cold, like eternal ice, trying to freeze the air around him.

"Let's go, it's been half an hour." With a muffled "bang", Zhuge Yue pushed open the half side door blocking the way, and rushed out with strides like the wind. Zhu Cheng and the servants of Qingshanyuan had expected this to happen, and they all followed behind. He didn't even have time to salute with Zhuge Huai, so he ran out in a hurry. Zhuge Huai was taken aback for a moment, while Zhu Yong, the steward of the Hongshan Courtyard, stood quietly aside, without even raising his head, like a quiet piece of wood. "Zhu Yong, what do you think?" The man was in his thirties, and he looked more mature than Zhu Cheng, Zhu Shun and the others, with a low voice and a calm expression, and said slowly: "Didn't the Eldest Young Master always say that the Fourth Young Master is calm and rational, seemingly indifferent, but actually the most scheming?" , then from the perspective of my slaves, this person is the restless and irrational fourth young master."

Zhuge Huai smiled lightly, shook his head calmly, turned around and went back to the room: "It's a good thing for young people to meet each other, childhood sweethearts, childhood sweethearts are the most important things!" She raised her head slightly, her eyes and eyebrows were filled with undisguised elegance, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised: "Go and check this maid named Xing'er, this person may be very important to me." Zhu Yong agreed, and then backed out, but Zhuge Yue was still thinking in a low voice, what kind of woman could be so fascinated by the young fourth child, that she even forgot to hide it in front of him.

How could he know that the bamboo horse Qingmei he was talking about was actually a child who was not yet eight years old. As the sky was getting late and the north wind was blowing, Zhuge Huai smiled faintly: "Xing'er..."
