"Okay, now that the matter has been clarified, let's deal with it how to deal with it." Fang Pifu waved his hand, "If there is anything you need from this palace master, you can go directly to Marquis Chudu Yu."
This was a clear sign of protecting Chu Sui, and the faces of the casual Jian family members all became a little ugly.
Fang Pifu could see all the changes in their expressions.
Seeing this, Fang Pifu said in a deep voice: "Everyone, please sit down."
Although they were dissatisfied, they still had to obey the words of the palace master.
Jian Qingxuan bowed and sat down as instructed.
Fang Bifu said: "Such a big thing happened, it's normal for you to feel resentful, and I can understand it."
Jian Xizhou said calmly: "Thank you, the master of the palace, for your understanding."
Fang Pifu nodded and continued: "Zhan Pingyuan is indeed guilty, but he has already paid the price he deserves."
He glanced at Chu Sui, who had a tense face: "The disciple caused such a big thing under his nose. It is definitely not justified to say that he, the master, has no sin at all, but Chu Sui has to deal with this matter after all.
Also without any knowledge…”
At this time, Jian Xizhou said lightly: "Palace Master, if you want to say anything, please give it directly and we will definitely comply."
"Okay, then I'll be direct."
Fang Pifu said in a deep voice: "The Lord of this palace will definitely punish Chu Sui for his crime of dereliction of duty, but I hope that the matter in Zhan Pingyuan will be stopped in Zhan Pingyuan, and no other people will be implicated, and no one will be disturbed.
Everyone knows it.”
Having said this, he picked up the tea cup and took two sips.
Hearing these words, Jian Yun had a hint of sadness and anger on his face, but he did not dare to say anything more.
He knows his identity, and if he talks too much, it will not only be ineffective, but may even be counterproductive.
Jian Xizhou's eyes flickered and he said nothing.
Jian Qingxuan also looks at her nose with her eyes, and her nose with her heart, as if all this has nothing to do with her.
Seeing this, the seriousness on Fang Pifu's face faded a bit, he put down his tea cup and said, "I am not the master of the palace, so I ask you to understand my difficulties."
Although all the palaces are doing this by sending cronies to the subordinate cities to monitor them, it is impossible to get the city lords to support them from the bottom of their hearts. Who would want to hang such a sword above their head.
Therefore, there are many city lords who complain secretly, but no one dares to openly oppose it.
This time Chu Sui's apprentice did something like this and wiped out the entire Jian family. If word spread, someone might take the opportunity to launch an attack to abolish this system.
Even with strong pressure, it will definitely be difficult for Du Yuhou who will be stationed in various cities in the future. Fang Pifu naturally does not want Zhan Pingyuan's bad behavior to spread.
Chu Sui also figured this out at this moment and knew that because of his neglect of his disciples, he had caused immeasurable trouble to the master of the palace. Therefore, all the resentment and anger on his face disappeared, his head drooped, and his eyebrows became flattering.
.
He knew that if something like this happened, the palace master could justifiably kill him.
The reason why he was only punished for dereliction of duty and trusting him was only secondary. I am afraid that the real purpose was to cover up what Zhan Pingyuan had done and not to let others notice any clues.
Thinking of this, Chu Sui's clothes had already been soaked with cold sweat.
He knew very well that his future was probably over. From now on, he would only play the role of a guard and thug beside the palace master. It would be a fool's errand to ask the palace master to entrust him with important tasks.
After a long while, Jian Xizhou and Jian Qingxuan didn't say anything, and Fang Pifu said coldly: "Do I, as the master of the palace, have to ask you to beg me?"
Jian Xizhou then spoke calmly: "The master of the palace made serious words."
; Jian Qingxuan also said respectfully: "This matter is entirely up to the palace master."
"good."
Fang Pifu nodded happily, his expression also relaxed.
If Jian Xizhou and Jian Qingxuan had to fight each other, he would be very passive.
Fang Pifu habitually picked up the tea cup, took two sips, and continued: "You have been wronged by this matter, and I will make it up to you in the future.
As for the next arrangements of Giant Sword City, you can make up your own mind. This palace master will not interfere and will fully support you."
Jian Xizhou and Jian Qingxuan stood up and said, "Thank you, Master."
Fang Bifu's eyes fell on Jian Qingxuan: "Since Jian Xilai gave you the giant sword talisman, then we will follow his wishes. You will be the city lord. The lord of this palace will be waiting to join you.
After the succession ceremony, we will return to Renyin Hall."
Jian Qingxuan and Jian Xizhou would like to express their gratitude again.
They all know that this is the reward for their obedience.
Fang Bifu said: "Okay, you all go back and do your work. Anyway, the master of this palace is here now. If you need anything, just come to me."
"yes."
Jian Qingxuan and the others bowed again and retreated.
As soon as Jian Qingxuan and others left, Chu Sui knelt down with a "pop".
Fang Pifu glanced at Chu Sui lightly: "If you have something to say, do you have to kneel down to say it?"
Chu then touched his head to the ground and said, "My subordinates have caused great trouble to the Lord of the Palace, and I will never be able to redeem myself even if I die."
Fang Pifu gritted his teeth, and with a flick of his wrist, the tea cup in his hand flew towards Chu Sui, and smashed into Chu Sui's head with a "bang" sound.
Chu Sui did not dare to use his skills to resist, and blood immediately flowed down his forehead.
Fang Bifu picked up the brocade handkerchief and wiped his hands, and said coldly: "You are indeed determined to die, so get out. This palace master doesn't want to see you now."
"yes."
Chu Sui did not dare to say anything more and retreated on his knees, his face ashen.
…
Jian Qingxuan took Jian Xizhou and Jian Yun back to her yard.
Qingqing has already gotten up, washed and changed clothes, and is feeding the golden retriever in the yard.
The Jian family has undergone tremendous changes in the past two days, and no one can care about the golden retriever. He is really hungry and doesn't care about what he feeds.
Seeing Jian Qingxuan and others returning, Qingqing hurriedly bowed and saluted.
Jian Qingxuan said hurriedly: "Qingqing, you are injured, just rest, there is no need to rush out to do things."
Qingqing smiled: "I feel uncomfortable after resting for a long time. I'll find something to do and feel better."
Jian Qingxuan didn't insist and went to the pavilion with Jian Xizhou Jian Yun to sit down.
Qingqing went to make tea for a few people.
Jian Qingxuan said to Jian Yun and Qingqing, "You guys should sit down too."
Jian Yun shook his head: "The etiquette cannot be discarded. There is no place for us to sit in front of the young lady."
Jian Qingxuan's eyes swept over Jian Yun and Qing Qing: "Except for Second Grandpa, you are the closest people to me now. In my heart, you are all my relatives."
Jian Yun insisted: "Then we can't break the rules..."
Jian Xizhou interrupted angrily: "I can't stand how pedantic you are. Just sit down if Xuan'er tells you to. There's so much nonsense."
