Thinking of this, Xiao Yuanyuan felt a little relieved and quietly winked at Butler Zhou.
Butler Zhou understood and said: "Princess, it's not that I don't want you to search. It's just that the key to this box was lost a few days ago. I'm afraid I can't open such a heavy box now. Why don't you search it next time? Anyway,
This box won’t escape if left alone.”
"It can't be opened..." Huang Beiyue slowly moved the tea leaves in the quilt, suddenly smiled, and took out a black dagger from the ring, "This is the cold iron dagger that the old man gave me just now. I heard that
Iron is as sharp as clay, I don't know if I can open the lock with this, Dong Ling, go and give it a try."
"Yes." Dong Ling stepped forward to get the dagger.
Xiao Yuanyuan suddenly stood up: "No!"
Huang Beiyue raised her head and asked: "Why not? If you break the lock, I will give a better one to Butler Zhou."
Xiao Yuanyuan's face was ugly, his hands were clenched tightly into fists, and his bones were rattling.
Huang Beiyue looked at his appearance and sneered. Today was just to scare the monkeys. She had to search the housekeeper that week and get the evidence that he had enriched his own pockets. Then she would have an excuse to rectify the family's finances!
Housekeeper Zhou has to deal with it today. Regardless of whether Xiao Yuanyuan lets you or not, do you have the ability to stop what I, Huang Beiyue, want to do?
"The old man has already said today that he wants me to straighten out the family tradition. There must be someone who takes the lead. Butler Zhou, you have worked hard for so many years and have made great achievements. Don't blame me for wronging you today. It is all the fault of those traitors who have a bad style, do evil and enrich their own pockets.
! Wait until I, the princess, catch them and skin them severely to relieve your hatred!"
It's okay that Butler Zhou didn't listen, but goosebumps appeared all over his body when he heard it.
Peeled….
No one here dares to treat Huang Beiyue's words as casual remarks. The cruel method of killing the servant in the garden today was obvious to all. Who dares to suspect that she was joking?
Butler Zhou quickly used his eyes to ask Xiao Yuanyuan for help. Huang Beiyue was the master's own son. As long as the master gave an order, what would happen even if she was the princess? Could she still disobey her father?
Xiao Yuanyuan also had such a plan, but she knew that this Huang Beiyue was no ordinary daughter. This girl could talk a lot with her mouth, and he had to think of how to say it.
"It seems that father also agrees. Dong Ling, please open the box."
Before Xiao Yuanyuan could think of what to say, Huang Beiyue had already given Dong Ling an order.
Dong Ling acted quickly, bypassing Butler Zhou, raised the knife and dropped the lock, and the lock fell heavily on the ground. Butler Zhou saw it and rushed forward, pressing his whole body firmly on the box.
"Steward Zhou, what are you doing? Is there something shameful in this alley?" Dong Ling asked, tilting his head.
Butler Zhou shook his head, "No! Nothing!"
Xiao Yuanyuan shouted: "That's enough! What's there to search for? Beiyue, you've had enough of your nonsense today, go back to your room and have a good rest!"
"What nonsense?" Huang Beiyue's expression slowly turned cold, and she put down her tea cup and stood up, "What my father said is chilling! Today, the old man just told me to rectify the family tradition. I am young and I am afraid that I will not be able to convince the public. I want to start from Zhou.
The housekeeper started to set an example, but my father actually said it was nonsense? Bei Yue’s good intentions were all for the sake of the eldest princess’s mansion!”
"But this search is too much!" Xiao Yuanyuan shouted. The box has been opened. If the contents inside are seen, he will...
