"Master, don't let me go back." At this moment, he had to express what he was thinking, and his voice was half nervous and half pleading.
"Oh? Why?" She looked at him and asked pretending to be confused.
"..." He was speechless and silent. Every time he talked to her, he was the loser. Every time she asked him, he was easily at a loss for words.
"I don't know? If you tell me why, I might change my mind." She smiled, pretending to think.
Hearing this, Ye Chen's eyes lit up with a little hope, but when he saw the folded paper held down by a paperweight on the table, his heart sank again. Perhaps, she already had an idea, all on that thin piece of paper.
He was just teasing him and seeing his reaction.
"Master, I don't want to go back. I want to stay. As long as I'm allowed to stay, I'm willing to accept any punishment." He took a step back and knelt down on one knee. His tone was no longer a request, but a plea, a beg, and even a prayer.
beg.
"Haha, Ye Chen, if I pull out your thorns, smooth your water chestnuts, burn your pride to ashes, and even push you into hell, what will you do?"
She knows very well that calling her master or lord is not respect for her, but awe, a kind of respect and fear engraved in the bones, and even a kind of servility. She has to obey and would rather die.
Resist.
This is her success and her failure.
"...Ye Chen is so happy." His voice was exceptionally clear, calm, tense and firm, as if he was speaking with his heart.
"Get up."
"Yes." He responded nervously. Without getting a definite answer from her, his heart could not relax for a moment.
"Open it." She took off the paperweight, took out the paper, and handed it to him.
Ye Chen was stunned and took it anxiously. She had already had an idea. No, maybe she had expected the result.
A thin piece of letter paper, with vigorous and powerful fonts, sharp brushwork, and majestic momentum. There is a whole page of densely packed characters, but there are only two fonts, his name, Ye Chen.
He looked at the letter for a long time and couldn't calm down. Is this the result of her setting? What does it mean? Why did he write his name?
"Ye Chen, you know how to lie with honesty."
"...I don't know." Ye Chen looked at her in confusion. What does it mean to lie with honesty?
Not sure? Very good. She was quite satisfied with his confused expression. Ye Chen was more law-abiding than Wu Xin and Qiu Tong, even a little dull.
Even if she was writing a letter and asked him to polish the ink next to her, he would never peek. He would only look at her folded letter openly. Even if he could no longer see the content inside, he would still take the trouble to read it, as if
You'll see it if you look for a long time.
This eccentricity is really funny, he is the most honest, he will not open the paper without her permission, but his expression of wanting to know betrays him.
"Xiu Shu asked Qiu Tong to come and select two maids from the Palace of Hell. As for you, after Qiu Tong arrives, you will go back to Jinli Kingdom and stay in the fortress for a month to think about it." After saying this, she stood up and looked inside.
Go to the room.
"Master, what about after a month of thinking?" Ye Chen asked nervously, facing the wall and thinking about it for a month, it was not only thousands of times lighter than the punishment she gave to the four envoys.
"If you want to come back, come back."
"Yes, thank you Master." Ye Chen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he can still come back.
"One more thing, you are not allowed to step in here without my permission." After saying this, her figure had disappeared behind the screen.
