Steward Liu, come and judge us.”
The maids beside the innocent maid surrounded Steward Liu with their mouths full of words, requesting Steward Liu to judge the judges.
“That’s right, Steward Liu, you’re the most fair in the mansion, come and judge us.”
The maids beside the charming maid also surrounded Steward Liu, chattering and requesting Steward Liu to do justice.
Chattering
Chattering and twittering
Steward Liu felt like he had fallen inside a duck’s nest, his ears were surrounded by quacking sounds in 360 degrees, his head was going to rise and crack, he couldn’t help but shout at the two sides of the maids, “Alright, be quiet, you guys are so staggering, how can you make me judge and preside over justice, I’m going to let you guys talk before you talk.”
Steward Liu shouted, only then did the two parties of maids quiet down.
After quieting down, Steward Liu looked at the innocent maid, and then at the charming maid. The two maids were both looking like victims, one with red eyes, stubborn tears emerging from the corners of her eyes; one with puffy cheeks, bean-sized teardrops falling down ……
In this era, the case is to pay attention to the “five listening”, rhetoric listening, colour listening, gas listening, ear listening, eye listening.
Liu steward has never eaten pork has seen pigs run, is in accordance with the ancient officials to determine the case of this idea.
However, observing the pure maid and charming maid two colours, breath, eyes, etc., the two are angry victims look, simply can not judge.
As for the character of the two people, Steward Liu is still unclear.
Because the pure maid or the charming maid, as well as the maids around here were all recruited into the mansion at the beginning of the month. At the beginning of the month, after His Highness King Yu’s yearly gift came back, the royal residence was instantly much more generous, so His Highness had a group of maids recruited to enrich the backyard. They had only been in the mansion for a few days, and Steward Liu was not clear about their character at all, so he could not judge who was a thief and who was lying by their character.
Hearing no judgement can not be judged, character can not be judged, both also have witnesses, this is in a predicament.
After getting into a predicament, Steward Liu shifted his sight to the physical evidence silk cloth, which was a pink peach blossom pattern silk silk cloth.
Huh?
Isn’t this the silk cloth that was rewarded by the mansion the day before yesterday to the new maid who entered the mansion.
Steward Liu’s eyes lit up, he remembered, this silk cloth is exactly the day before yesterday, the mansion uniformly rewarded to the new maid. At that time, although the colour of the silk cloth was pink, but in order for the maids to choose, there were more than ten kinds of patterns such as peach blossom pattern, plum blossom pattern, begonia pattern. At that time, after each maid selected and received the silk cloth, there was a register.
Then bring over the reward roster and see who received the pink peach blossom silk cloth at that time.
Wouldn’t this case be cleared up?
After thinking of this, Steward Liu finally had a smile on his face and said to his sidekick Futian, “Futian, go to the accounts office and fetch the list of rewards from the day before yesterday, and see which of the two of them received silk serge cloths with peach blossom pattern.”
“Steward Liu ……”The two attendants looked up at Steward Liu at those words, wanting to speak.
“What’s wrong?”Steward Liu raised an eyebrow at the sight and asked.
“Sister Mo’er and Sister Feng’er, they both like peach blossoms, so the silk cloths they received are all peach blossom patterned. We went to receive it together, we won’t get it wrong.”The two parties of maids returned with seven words.
What?
The patterns they received were all peach blossom patterns?
Steward Liu froze, since the silk cloth patterns they received were the same, it would be useless to check the reward roster.
Thus, once again, he was in a dilemma.
While Steward Liu was in a dilemma, Zhu Pingan and Gao Gong happened to pass by them.
“Lord Gao, Little Lord Zhu.”
When Steward Liu saw Gao Gong and Zhu Pingan, he busily turned around and saluted the two.
“All hail Lord Gao, all hail Lord Zhu.”
Seeing Steward Liu being so respectful, and hearing Steward Liu refer to Lord Gao and Lord Zhu by their mouths, the maids present all followed suit and bowed down to Gao Gong and Zhu Pingan.
Gao Gong has always been arrogant, even Yu Wang Fu’s colleagues can’t get into his eyes, let alone stewards and maids of honour, as for the maids of honour arguing over such trivial matters as silk cloth, it is even more disdainful, and his head did not nod straightly walked past.
“Steward Liu, how are you.”
Zhu Pingan smiled faintly, arched his hand towards Steward Liu, and nodded his head in sign to the serving girls present.
In the crowd, the innocent maid lowered her waist and saluted without looking away.
“This naive looking young lord, so amiable, not handsome, but so sunny. Unlike that tall lord in front, his frame is also too big, he doesn’t even look at us, as if we are rubbish on the side of the road ……”
When the flirtatious maid heard the voice of Zhu Pingan greeting them, she boldly looked up at Zhu Pingan and thought as such in her heart.
The other maids’ senses towards Zhu Pingan and Gao Gong were all similar to that of the flirtatious maid.
Having just walked over for a while, Zhu Pingan had also heard a generalisation of the matter of the innocent maid and the flirtatious maid arguing over the silk cloth.
Regarding Steward Liu’s predicament, Zhu Pingan was well aware of it and it was not difficult to solve it, he had the intention to mention a word to Steward Liu, but at this time, Gao Gong had gone ahead, so Zhu Pingan had no choice but to smile slightly at Steward Liu, and took two steps forward to catch up with Gao Gong.
“Suqing, Lord Zhu.”
Just as Zhu Pingan took a step forward, a magnetic and charismatic shout came from behind him.
The moment he heard the voice, Zhu Pingan knew who it was.
Zhang Juzheng.
Sure enough, Zhu Pingan turned his head and saw Zhang Juzheng walking quickly, as usual, Zhang Juzheng’s body was clean and tidy with not a single fold, like a newly made official uniform, and before he even came, a fragrant wind had already hit his face.
“Fluttering gentleman, jade tree in the wind ……”
When the maids present saw Zhang Juzheng, such a series of idioms surfaced in their minds.
“What a handsome lord ……”
The maidservants were at the age of spring, and at first sight of Zhang Juzheng, they could not help but chirp in low voices.
The innocent maid still bowed with her waist down and did not look away.
Charming maid looked up at Zhang Juzheng, her eyes widened by one point, it is really a good handsome adult ah, much more handsome than that peaceful and sunny young adult just now, as if he walked down from a painting.
“Oh, uncle big, which gust of wind brought you here.”
After Gao Gong heard Zhang Juzheng’s voice, he turned around with a smile, about passed Zhu Pingan, and took two steps forward to welcome him.
“Senior Zhang.”
Zhu Pingan smiled and arched his hand to Zhang Juzheng.
“Greetings, Senior Zhang.”
Steward Liu saluted Zhang Juzheng in greeting.
Zhang Juzheng smiled and nodded to Steward Liu, then bowed back with Gao Gong and Zhu Pingan, took out a yellowed tome from his sleeve and waved it to Gao Gong, smiling back, “The ancient book that Your Highness entrusted me with correcting last time, today I finally lived up to Your Highness’s entrustment and finished correcting, and I am coming here especially to resume the order to Your Highness.”
