Chapter 239 Dealing with Bixi

"Commander Li."

Cheng Yunshuo met his direct superior, Commander Li.

Commander Li is Lady Wang's husband, and it was he who recruited Cheng Yunshuo into the Yulin Army.

"Yun Shuo, I have something to tell you."

"What is it?"

Cheng Yunshuo was wondering when a document was delivered by Commander Li.

"You go back and rest for a while. I will keep your position for the time being. We'll talk about it after the storm has passed."

Cheng Yunshuo opened the document curiously, only to see that it clearly stated that he was temporarily relieved of all his duties in the Yulin Army and was awaiting an order to be transferred.

"Why?!"

Commander Li looked at him with deep eyes, "Yun Shuo, do you want me to pay more attention to you? Don't you know what you have done recently?"

"Commander Li, please make it clear!"

"You have been getting close to a maid in the harem these days, causing gossip everywhere. Your reputation is very problematic."

Cheng Yunshuo understood immediately after hearing this, and he quickly said, "Aunt Bixi and I are innocent! There is absolutely nothing between us!"

"Yun Shuo, I believe you are the one spreading rumors here," Commander Li said with a deep sigh, "In the imperial palace, it is strictly forbidden for maids and guards to have affairs. How could you spread such rumors? Do you want to save your head?"

Cheng Yunshuo was eager to defend himself, but he had nothing to say.

He actually did such a thing. When he saw Bixi for the first time, something bad almost happened to him. After that, he became very close to her.

These facts are clear to all.

He hesitated for a moment and then said, "Commander Li, please help me. I don't want to leave the palace."

Commander Li looked at him, "Yun Shuo, I'm doing this to help you! Do you know how many people are watching you now? Your every move is watched by thousands of eyes. If you make a mistake, your entire mansion will be implicated! You still want to stay in the palace, have you really been deceived by someone!"

Hearing this, Cheng Yunshuo fell silent.

"Go back and rest for a while. I'll transfer you back when this matter is over." Commander Li did not allow for rejection.

Cheng Yunshuo had nothing else to say and handed over the token with a frustrated look on his face.

When handing over the token, Commander Li said to him in a low voice, "Yun Shuo, you are good in every way except that you get carried away easily. You originally had a promising future, and I also know that you have the ambition to make great achievements. I have always wanted to promote you, but now you are delayed because of such a trivial matter. You should really think about it when you go back. Are there some people who are causing trouble for you?"

Cheng Yunshuo frowned when he heard this. He wanted to say a few words for Bixi but then he met Commander Li's stern gaze.

Among men, women's topics are not the main theme that can resonate, especially when they reach a certain level, for men, there are many things that are more interesting than women.

For example, power and money.

In the Yulin Army, everyone is ashamed to hear about people losing their jobs or making mistakes because of a woman.

Everyone will just find it ridiculous.

Everyone can tell the pros and cons. A woman is not worth mentioning at all compared to her personal future and family honor.

When Commander Li recruited him, he talked to him a lot and was very optimistic about Cheng Yunshuo.

Cheng Yunshuo was also full of fighting spirit at that time and wanted to achieve some results, but now, he has stopped his job because of this reason, which inevitably betrayed others' trust.

It also makes me wonder how to face myself when I wanted to prove myself.

Cheng Yunshuo suddenly felt indescribably depressed.

He lost his job and became a second-generation rich man with nothing to do.

He was upset, but he couldn't think too much about it, because if he did, he would realize that the reason he lost his job was because of Bixi.

This thought was like a thorn in the relationship that he and Bixi had just established.

If their feelings were deep, like when he and Xing Dairong were deeply in love, he would not care about such things at all, and he would feel that doing anything for her was worth it.

But, Bixi had just appeared and had caused them to face such a big trouble. This was like a sharp thorn between them.

Lu Lingjun knew men like Cheng Yunshuo very well. He was very afraid of trouble. This thorn might not be enough to directly pierce their relationship now, but as time went on, if similar things happened in the future, Cheng Yunshuo would become more and more dissatisfied.

Men are most afraid of troubles. If they have too many troubles, they will get fed up with them.

Moreover, Cheng Yunshuo will face an even more difficult problem: he will never be able to see Bixi again!

To Cheng Yunshuo now, Bixi is definitely more important in his heart than his job or even the Marquis' Mansion.

But he can't see it!

Cheng Yunshuo was really irritable and anxious.

Lu Lingyun had to let him suffer like this.

After Cheng Yunshuo handed over the token, he was not allowed to appear near the palace again. He couldn't even find someone to talk to Bixi. Cheng Yunshuo left helplessly.

Not long after he left, some people were seen wandering around the West Gate. Captain Li sent people to drive them away, and that's when he heard the gossip.

They had seen a palace maid being beaten in the street and her clothes torn off when she went out of the palace to buy things. The scene was very chaotic, so they all came to see which palace maid it was.

Naturally, the guards quickly dispersed when they heard these rumors. The people who came here were really ordinary people, and they dispersed immediately when they saw the order to disperse.

People may have dispersed, but the rumors are still there.

The guards listened to the rumor and inquired about it with great interest.

After a while, everyone guessed who it was.

Who else could it be but Aunt Bixi who has been leaving the palace frequently in the past few days!

Although it seemed that only the sleeve of her clothes was torn at the time, which did not attract much attention, everyone obviously preferred to hear the rumor version. After a while, the rumor that Bixi was beaten in the street and her clothes were torn spread among the guards.

In the afternoon, when the guards of the Yulin Army were patrolling the streets and arrived at several palace gates of the inner palace, they saw a palace gate wide open, several eunuchs carrying miscellaneous items, and a head aunt in turquoise clothes appeared in front of everyone.

She was recognized at once.

"That's her."

"This is Aunt Bixi."

"Her clothes were really torn?"

"I think so. Is it groundless?"

Bixi was waiting at the palace gate for Cheng Yunshuo to arrive. A group of guards walked past her, but none of them was Cheng Yunshuo.

What made her feel even more uncomfortable was the looks in these people's eyes. They all seemed to be looking at her vaguely.

It made her very uncomfortable.

She saw that the time was almost up and Cheng Yunshuo had not appeared yet, so she closed the palace gate with regret.

Originally, she wanted to tell Cheng Yunshuo today when she would be released from the palace, to hint to him that she would have no place to return to after leaving the palace.

But I don’t know why Cheng Yunshuo didn’t show up.

With disappointment in her eyes, she ordered people to close the palace gate. When she went back to make some preparations, she heard that someone in the palace came to look for her.

"Bixi, the head nanny wants you to come over!"
