Villain Rule No. 1: Don’t provoke the protagonist’s group or any of those Children of Destiny. The farther away, the better!
Villain Rule No. 2: If you run into one of the protagonist’s...
"What is Master saying to you? Why are you looking at Qinghan?"
"Well......"
Yes, sir, rest assured.
Did that guy say anything?
Xu Zhanfeng thought to himself, "Is this something I can say?"
Grandma is right there!
Just as Xu Zhanfeng was about to reply that he didn't, Ye Qinghan stopped him from touching the jade pendant.
Did that guy say anything?
"No way..." Xu Zhanfeng looked up at the sky, then at the ground. This was something the master had explicitly forbidden him from telling the mistress!
Ye Qinghan also understood: "Xu Zhanfeng? Steward Xu?"
"Grandma, I'm here."
"Could it be that Master intentionally instructed you to conceal this?"
Xu Zhanfeng glanced at Ye Qinghan, then at Li Shiyao beside him. Would he dare to speak carelessly about such a thing?
He immediately knelt on the ground with a thud and spoke frankly.
"Madam has said beforehand that Zhan Feng must act in accordance with Master's wishes before Madam's."
"Zhan Feng had no intention of disrespecting Madam, but this matter was indeed instructed by the Master, and I hope Madam will understand."
Upon hearing this, Ye Qinghan was not one to be ignorant.
Their argument was reasonable and well-founded, so Ye Qinghan couldn't do anything about it.
No matter what, Xu Zhanfeng is a steward of Lingxian Palace. If we cause trouble for Xu Zhanfeng over this kind of thing, how will he be able to do his job in the future?
"Hehe, get up, get up, Qinghan is testing you!"
How could I forget what I told you myself?
"I am very pleased that Steward Xu has done so well."
Xu Zhanfeng also slowly stood up. He knew that his grandmother was not the type to settle scores later.
"I am deeply grateful for your kindness, Grandmother. I would gladly die for you."
No, that guy never admitted it, even until his death.
[Once that's settled, back to the September Sanctuary. Same rules as before: contact me promptly if needed.]
Yes, sir, please rest assured.
After doing all this, Xu Zhanfeng looked at Ye Qinghan again and asked.
"Grandma, what's the finishing touches here?" Although the rare and precious materials have all been collected, there are still many treasures to be looted, which can be sold for a lot of money.
If the eldest mistress were not present, he would naturally have followed the master's orders and burned it.
But Grandma is right here, and she's already seen it. What if she thinks it's a waste to burn it?
"Just do as Master instructed. Have you forgotten?"
