Bastards

Chapter 10 Provocation

The butler left the room for a long time, but Wen Shuquan still hadn't returned from the extreme shock. He was holding a teacup blankly, looking at Cui Yu outside the gap.

He was born in a family, he was born to be the eldest son, he picked up a pen at the age of two, and he was taught by the court at a young age. He was taught by the elders carefully, and he knew a lot, especially when his father welcomed a bride, what he felt in just three years was better than in the past ten years. What's more, it was the first time he saw a boy like Cui Yu!

He is as talented as jade, but gentle and introverted, without any publicity, people are only amazed by his appearance, and don't feel that the weak boy is aggressive at all.But just once——

Fascinating, thoughtful, and logical... Every subtle expression of Cui Yu's eyes and brows, every casual and simple movement, his unhurried voice, the timing of his speech pauses, and even the way he looks at the housekeeper seem to be full of emotion. With some kind of hidden meaning, some kind of bewitchment, the atmosphere is layered and deepened, so that the butler has to follow his guidance, like a marionette, imagine some things and make some decisions.

Like a boy under candlelight, with a red mole on the center of his brow, so handsome, so elegant, so gentle, so calm, in a short time, he weaves a big net and lets the moths fly in by themselves.Being stuck in a crisis, the moth was still grateful, and even knelt down and begged him for guidance.

It's so smart and scary!

"...Brother Wen, Brother Wen?" Wen Shuquan suddenly came back to his senses with the familiar warm tone in his ears, "Huh?"

Cui Yu pointed to his cup: "The tea has spilled out."

"Oh... ah!" Wen Shuquan looked at the tea spilled on the skirt, and frantically took pictures, forgetting that the cup was still in his hand when he took the picture, the remaining tea poured out, and the skirt got even more wet.

"Uh..." Wen Shuquan was very embarrassed, and for the first time showed a slightly silly smile on his face, "I made you laugh."

Cui Yan shook his head, found a dry handkerchief from the room and handed it to Wen Shuquan.

Wen Shuquan wiped his clothes, and looked at Cui Yu with shining eyes: "Are you really the son of Qinghe Cui's family?"

"No," Cui Yan shook his head, with a slight smile on his face, "I told Brother Wen about it."

"Then you just deceived the housekeeper..."

Cui Yu asked back: "Brother Wen, but I think my trip is not kind?"

Wen Shuquan shook his head: "Others want to harm me, so what's wrong with me making a plan? It's just that this method is related to Brother Cui's integrity. If the housekeeper spreads the word..." Pretending to be someone else and putting money on your face is not what a gentleman does. Knowing that, the reputation may be greatly affected.

"He can't spread the word." Cui Yu spoke firmly, with confidence in his brows and eyes. "But you're right—" He turned his head and looked into Wen Jiaquan's eyes quietly, with solemn eyes, "So this strategy can only be used against villains, not gentlemen."

Wen Jiaquan was slightly taken aback.

You can only treat villains, not gentlemen...

Yes, if you use this trick to deceive a gentleman, if a gentleman is frank, he may not be in your game, but it is just right to deal with snobs.For example, the housekeeper of his family has always stepped on the highs and lows, and puts the status and status of the world more than anything else. He has clearly entered the Wen family, but he has never regarded himself as a Wen family. He feels that the Liu family is a big official and came out of the Liu family. Because of his high status, he is cunning, quick-witted, suspicious, and suspicious. This strategy is just right for him.

"And I just—didn't say much."

Wen Shuquan's heart skipped a beat.That's right... Cui Yu didn't pat his chest and call out who my father is, who my grandfather is, and my identity. He just guided the housekeeper to guess, and didn't shake his head to object.

Thinking through a hundred thoughts, Wen Shuquan thought that some things seemed to be solved in a similar way, why didn't he think of it before?

Is he too stupid, or the boy in front of him is too smart?

"Then you promise him—" Those promises, don't they matter?

Cui Yu smiled and shook his head: "Just watch."

What happened today was too sudden. Wen Shuquan was still sick and his mind was still confused. Since he decided to follow Cui Yu's plan, he didn't ask too much if he didn't understand. He just nodded and said: "Don't worry about me, basically everything The subordinates can control them, and if someone is disobedient, it will be fine if they die." Those who don't listen to him must be from the Liu family, and he doesn't feel bad at all.

Cui Yu nodded, as if he didn't care about the life and death of Wen's family members.

"It's just—" Wen Jiaquan looked at the rain line outside the window, "It would be nice if the rain could stop."

……

At the beginning of the ugly time, the rain remained.

There was a soft sound of tiles on the roof, as if the wind was blowing too hard, and it seemed like a night owl had landed on it.Soon, there was a rustling sound from the corridor, followed by a soft 'squeak' sound of the door and window being opened.

All sounds are very soft, like the breeze of the night, afraid of disturbing people's dreams.

Lan Qiao's heart beat a little, and he silently looked at his young master.

The young master sat upright at the table, dressed neatly, did not go to bed, and of course, did not light the lamp.The two of them just sat opposite each other in the dark room, and the young master didn't let him speak... Although the young master was as handsome as ever, and could eat two bowls of rice just looking at it, the atmosphere was really scary.

Seemingly noticing Lan Qiao's gaze, Cui Yu gave him a sharp look, shook his head and signaled him to be obedient and not to speak.

Lan Qiao immediately covered his mouth tightly with both hands, expressing his firm obedience with movements.

It's just the panicked eyes, the whitened fingertips...it doesn't look very comfortable.

When the eyes are used to the darkness, the expression in the eyes of the person sitting opposite cannot be missed at all.Cui Yu sighed silently, dipped his fingertips in the tea and wrote on the table: Wait.

Lan Qiao actually knew that they were sitting like this, waiting, mainly... until when?

Cui Yan's eyes drooped slightly, and he wrote two more words on the table: Immediately.

After writing these two words, the corners of Cui Yu's lips slightly raised, and his eyes seemed to be bent. The expression in his eyes was shining like a star, like a bright moon shining brightly. Lan Qiao was a little confused for a while. handsome!

Lan Qiao screamed in his heart, although it's wrong to be so intoxicated with the young master's beauty, how can he, a mortal, resist the glory of the banishing immortal!Being able to serve the young master by his side has been his blessing for several lifetimes. He wants to protect the young master. Anyone who wants to hurt the young master should step on his corpse!

By the way, he is scared now, the young master must be even more scared, he must hold back, and must protect the young master well!

Lan Qiao was instantly full of fighting spirit, clenched his hands into fists, and stared out the window with piercing eyes.

……

With a bang, the door of a room in the north wing opened, and the butler came out.

The neat and shiny goatee, the shrewd eyes, the self-confidence that seems to be in control of all situations... The housekeeper straightened the corners of his clothes, held his head high, and walked towards the east chamber with big strides.

When he reached the wing, he didn't knock on the door, but stopped at the corner of the veranda, raised his breath, and shouted loudly: "East wing, I already know who you are!"

A loud drink pierced the sky, as if the sound of rain was not so noisy, this loud shout was enough to wake up everyone in the inn.Of course, there are not many who are asleep now.

The butler rolled his eyes, thinking of what Master Cui in the west wing would say to him.

Do you know how Mr. Zhuge persuaded Soochow to unite against Cao during the Three Kingdoms period?Sometimes, it is useless to lower your posture and begging. Preemptive strikes are not only cool, but also beautiful, as long as you know the art of speaking.

Why do others want to kill you?It was you who accidentally bumped into the secret.But if you are not a mere servant, you are a relative of the emperor, would others dare to kill you?Killing you, how much risk will be taken behind it, not to mention the dead man himself, the owner of the dead man will not be able to settle.

So...you have to let them value you, know that you are smart and capable, and you have a status and background.

"I know you are dead men! You are performing secret tasks, such as searching for people and money, and maybe there is a killing order, but I broke into your room by mistake during the day, it was not intentional, and I didn't notice any secrets, let alone know Who are you looking for and what are you doing! You want to keep your mouth shut, fine, just come, as long as you can bear the consequences!"

The housekeeper kept in mind what Cui Yu taught him, and recited it imposingly: "You know who my master Liu is! Jane is in the heart of the emperor, and she has the favor of the king of Yue. Tiger-patterned jade pendant, Daozhong Qiuye wants to eat my home-cooked dishes! If I can go back this time, it’s fine, if I die here for nothing—you have to think hard, will someone check it out!”

After talking on the phone, seeing that there was no response from the east chamber, the housekeeper couldn't help but feel happy, and secretly sent a grateful look to Cui Yu's room.As expected, he is a child of the Cui family in Qinghe, with unparalleled intelligence, everything he guessed was right!

Yes, he has backers, not only the Patriarch Liu who is high in the temple, but also the King of Yue!The king of Yue is the son of a noble concubine, the eldest son of the sage, who is deeply favored, and the power inside and outside the palace is very powerful. Although there is a prince in the court, everyone knows that the invisible person doesn't care at all. The king of Yue is the sage's favorite. The people of Guozuo.Master Liu of his family belongs to the King of Yue, and he really served the King of Yue once. Of course, the King of Yue, Tianhuang and nobles don't remember him, but who else knows?As long as he said that the King of Yue was waiting for his mid-autumn dish, others would have to weigh it carefully.

He is just a servant, and he is of no importance at all, but once he gets involved with the royal family, others will have to think about it.If you don't kill it, let it go, if you kill it, you will definitely be held accountable behind the scenes.Why do you have trouble with a little servant?Pulling out the radish and bringing out the mud at that time must not be what the adults in the household department want to see.

While the housekeeper was thinking, Cui Mata's face appeared in his mind.So calm, so calm, what kind of killer, what kind of dead man, in the eyes of people, it is not a big deal at all, just a small trick can solve it.

Now things are going smoothly as planned, what is he afraid of, he can't wait to shout directly: You try to kill me!

The butler's expression was even more complacent, and he swept his sleeves away, feeling a little bit of reprimanding Fang Qiu: "The master behind you certainly doesn't want to see such a result, and you certainly don't want me to be a servant to make your affairs difficult. Let's be servants Yes, the most important three words: knowledge of practice. I made a mistake today, and you also made a mistake. Who told you to make a mistake, and you are a dead man, and let me break into the room?"

"In this way, as long as you are willing to give up some money, I won't tell the master about you running to the riverside, plotting joint ventures, killing people, and robbing money. How about that?"

After finishing the last sentence, the housekeeper was very satisfied with his performance, very good, very perfect, very in line with his identity setting!

He is a servant, a villain who revolts when he sees money, and he can keep his mouth shut if he has money.If you don't want anything, the dead soldiers will be suspicious instead. Now make it clear face to face, the dead soldiers will definitely let him go!

The housekeeper once again sent a thankful look to the East Chamber. Young Master Cui helped him so much, not to mention a car, he can also give two caring girls as a gift!Seeing that his little servant doesn't know how to take care of others, Young Master Cui is doing well, and he will definitely be remembered in the future. When we meet again in Luoyang City, he has a relationship with the Cui family of Qinghe... Regardless of whether it is the Wen family or the Liu family, we must look up to him A few glances!

……

The sound of rain ding-dong, the steward's loud voice surrounded the courtyard, no one could not hear these words.

Lan Qiao looked at his young master's eyes getting brighter and brighter, the corners of his lips getting higher and higher, and the eyes he glanced at the opposite side showed a little ironic sympathy. He had a feeling that this housekeeper might not have a good result...but not at all. It's not pitiful, the butler is a tricky one at first glance.Moreover, my young master was injured this time, and finally started to put on a pose to kill all directions, and he is no longer single-minded, which is really great!In the past, if the young master was willing to use dim sum, how could he be bullied so badly by his aunt!

Cui Yu glanced across the east chamber, wanting to show his thumbs up to praise the butler, his acting skills are [-]%, and he didn't let him down!

Now... just wait for the reactions from both sides.

Such an obvious provocation, if Dongxiang can bear it, he admires it!With such an obvious reminder, if the next room still can't guess, he can't wait to solve these stupid subordinates for Yang Xuan with his own hands!
