The eldest daughter of a peasant family: They are all my sisters’ passers-by

"Alright, stop talking nonsense to me! I just want to ask you one question, are those things Hua Shoufu said true or false? Is this thief who stole the flowers really related to the Third Young Master?"

At this moment, the butler's face was extremely gloomy, as black as the bottom of a pot, and his sharp eyes swept around, as if he wanted to see through everyone.

At the same time, he deliberately lowered his voice, as if he was afraid of being heard by others. Obviously, the situation was out of control and beyond his control, and the most urgent thing was to get away as soon as possible.

Faced with such aggressive questioning from the butler, the captain of the guards knew the truth and it was useless to continue hiding it.

In fact, he couldn't help but secretly complain, what do you mean by related? That's obviously it.

After thinking it over, he decided to tell the housekeeper about the matter. After all, the person in front of him was a confidant of the master who had followed him for many years, and his wisdom was far beyond his own.

So, the chief guard took a deep breath, calmed himself, and finally decided to tell the truth: "Uh...Butler...it is true."

As soon as he finished speaking, the butler's eyes suddenly widened with an expression of disbelief on his face. He even wondered if there was something wrong with his ears.

How could the elegant, eloquent, gentle and refined Third Young Master do such a shocking thing? It was simply unscrupulous, and it was really unexpected for the old butler!

"Nonsense, this is simply outrageous! Since you've already done this, why not just clean up the mess and secretly get rid of those lowly people? Why did you leave the body out there? Aren't you afraid of making things worse? Now that you've made such a big mess, even the heads of you and me combined won't be enough to pay for it!"

The housekeeper was so angry that his face turned red. Suddenly, everything went dark in front of his eyes, and the world was spinning around him. He felt dizzy and dazed.

"You...you are so bold!"

The housekeeper was so angry that he was shaking all over and couldn't speak clearly. Facing such a dilemma, it was extremely disadvantageous for them. They couldn't just sit there and wait for death, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

"Butler, calm down first. Maybe the situation is not that bad. In my opinion, why would His Majesty care about a mere flower thief? Besides, when would such a small case alarm the Prime Minister to come and investigate? Maybe Prime Minister Hua came here to help the drunk Guihua County Lady."

"I've also heard some secrets. This Guihua County Lady has an affair with the Imperial Tutor Li in Kyoto, and this Imperial Tutor Li has a close relationship with Prime Minister Hua. Maybe all this is a scam. Butler, we can't lose our composure at this moment. We must stay calm."

The more the captain of the guards analyzed, the more he felt it made sense, and he couldn't help but affirm that his brain was particularly smart today.

"Calm down? Calm down..."

The butler got angry on the spot, wanting to see if the captain of the guards had any grass in his head. He was just making trouble for nothing.

He kept a mouthful of dirty words on his lips but didn't spit them out, feeling that they were really disrespectful.

"What you said makes sense, but Prime Minister Hua doesn't need to do this. If he were to pursue this, it would be no different from falsely conveying the imperial edict. It's hard to say whether the risk is too great..."

"Butler, now we can only take a gamble and bet that all this is fake. Let's leave first."

The butler slowly raised his slightly cloudy eyes and carefully looked up and down at the head guard in front of him, then raised the corners of his mouth slightly to reveal a barely perceptible smile: "Hmm... I didn't expect you to be so smart today."

The two men whispered to each other for a long time, but they were unaware that Takahashi had already led the weather vane in the crowd to where it was.

The butler straightened his slightly wrinkled clothes and quickly adjusted his posture, trying to make himself look more dignified and decent.

"Prime Minister Hua, please understand! I really don't know anything about this matter. Our Wen family is a dignified and prestigious family, a family of scholars! After hundreds of years of ups and downs, we have always been in Rucheng and benefited the people. We, the Wen family, will never do such a disgusting thing! This is a family taboo. Once violated, the person will be expelled from the family and will never be employed again. This simple truth is known to even a child. If you can have the direct blood of the Wen family, what are those so-called petty gains and personal relationships? They are simply insignificant!"
