Escape after crossing
Chapter 257 2 The Bustle of the Prince’s Mansion (2)
His eyes widened, his face full of shock and anger, and his heart was beating wildly, as if it was about to burst out of his chest.
When he finally came to his senses and saw clearly that the person in front of him was actually his own housekeeper Liu, a nameless anger suddenly surged in his heart. He sat up straight abruptly, pointed at housekeeper Liu's nose and cursed.
"What a good butler Liu! What on earth do you want to do by running to my bedside so quietly in the early morning? And you servants, are all of you dead? How could you allow this old man to act so recklessly!"
Steward Liu trembled as he told the story of what happened in the mansion. Upon hearing this, the anger on the Second Prince's face turned into shock, and he immediately put on his clothes and rushed to the storeroom to check.
At this moment, Butler Liu suddenly rushed forward and stretched out his hands without hesitation to stop the Second Prince who was about to move forward. Seeing this, the Second Prince was immediately furious. He widened his eyes, opened his mouth with anger, and started cursing.
"You are such a good slave! How dare you block the way of this prince? What do you want to do? Don't you know who you are?"
Facing the Second Prince's angry rebuke, Butler Liu felt extremely wronged and helpless. He lowered his head, his eyes slightly red, and explained with a trembling voice.
"Second Prince, please calm down! I really had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure. Look at what you look like now. If the servants in the mansion saw you like this, I'm afraid it would cause a huge disturbance!"
However, at this moment, the Second Prince seemed to have been blinded by anger and did not understand the meaning of Butler Liu's words at all. He just thought that he had not washed or changed his clothes.
Butler Liu looked at his master who was irritable, impulsive and reckless today and found that he no longer had his usual wisdom and foresight.
Looking at the master in front of him who was completely different from usual, Butler Liu couldn't help but sigh inwardly, wondering what was going on. Why couldn't the usually shrewd Second Prince even notice such an obvious inappropriateness today?
Butler Liu took a deep breath, as if he had mustered up all his courage, slowly reached out his hand, gently pulled the sleeve of the second prince, and carefully led him to the huge and magnificent bronze mirror.
After standing still, Butler Liu raised his finger tremblingly and pointed at the mirror-smooth surface, his voice slightly nervous: "Master, please take a look at this mirror."
The second prince frowned slightly, wondering in his heart what the meaning of Butler Liu's action was. However, despite his doubts, out of trust in Butler Liu's loyal service over the years and his calm state of mind at this moment, he nodded obediently and cast his eyes on the bronze mirror as he was told.
When he looked closely, the lake of his heart that was originally as calm as still water was instantly thrown into a huge rock, causing a thousand waves, and a blazing fire of anger surged up from the bottom of his heart again.
At the same time, the expression on the face of Butler Liu standing aside became more and more solemn and ugly, as if a gloomy dark cloud was hanging over him.
It was only because Butler Liu inadvertently caught a glimpse of the shocking scene behind the second prince's head.
At that moment, time seemed to freeze. Butler Liu's eyes widened, his mouth slightly opened, and he stood there like a petrified man. What he saw left him dumbfounded, and his heart was filled with turmoil.
At this moment, he was in extreme confusion and hesitation, not knowing whether he should tell his master everything he had witnessed.
If Jiang Ziluo were here, he would surely laugh so hard that he would shake with laughter, and might even make a rude comment.
"Oh my, this is really my first attempt. Look at my skills, they are still a little rusty! I have to practice more in the future."
In fact, it’s no wonder that she reacted like this, because Jiang Ziluo had originally planned to shave off all of the Second Prince’s long hair.
However, just as she was about to do it, she saw that there was such a large area on the back of the Second Prince's head. It would be such a shame if it was shaved completely.
So, after some careful consideration, Jiang Ziluo had an idea and simply left two eye-catching big words there - "Turtle".
As a result, when Butler Liu accidentally glanced at these two words written in a flamboyant style, he instantly fell into extreme entanglement.
He was in a state of confusion and dilemma! But no matter how he was troubled, he had to bite the bullet and report the truth to his master.
Butler Liu walked up to his master tremblingly and stammered, "Master...Master, after...after...after..."
Before he could finish the rest of his words, his master started to scold him impatiently.
"What do you mean by 'after'? You can't even speak a complete sentence. If you can't speak properly, then shut up!"
Butler Liu made up his mind, closed his eyes and shouted: "Master, someone has carved the word 'turtle' on the back of your head!"
The second prince was stunned for a moment, then burst into a roar. But soon, he calmed down, and then thought about what Butler Liu had just reported, and it was clear that the matter was not that simple.
While the Second Prince was sitting at the table, brows furrowed and face heavy with deep thought, the stewards who had gone to check the situation also rushed back to the Second Prince's courtyard.
However, as soon as they stepped into the courtyard, they keenly noticed that the atmosphere around them was extremely tense and depressing, as if an invisible pressure was covering the entire courtyard.
Just as these stewards were about to step into the room and report what they had investigated to the Second Prince in person, several figures suddenly appeared from the side and blocked their way.
Looking closely, they turned out to be the servants who had just come with Butler Liu. They looked anxious and moved hurriedly, as if they were eager to stop the butlers from entering the house.
One of the servants was called Xiaowu, who had a very close relationship with the nanny in charge of the garment workshop.
At this moment, he quickly grabbed the housekeeper and dragged her to a deserted place.
Then, Xiao Wu lowered his voice and told the housekeeper the shocking scene he had just witnessed in a panic.
However, before Butler Liu decided to report the matter to the Second Prince, he had already decisively ordered everyone, including Xiao Wu, to leave the room first.
So in fact, all Xiaowu could tell was the incredible situation that the Second Prince's hair was shaved bald.
Of course, the other managers had also heard about it from others, and their faces became even uglier.
Just as these people were looking at each other, hesitantly thinking about who should take the lead and report this crucial matter to their superiors.
Suddenly, the tightly closed door slowly opened, and Butler Liu walked out slowly. His figure appeared in everyone's sight, as if carrying an invisible pressure, which instantly quieted the originally noisy scene.
Butler Liu's face was as calm as water. His eyes swept across everyone present, finally stopping on the few people who were discussing.
How could someone who could take the position of steward be a fool? At this moment, everyone looked at the steward in front of them, as if they had seen a life-saving straw, and they all hurriedly wanted to report the relevant matters to Steward Liu.
In an instant, the originally quiet courtyard became noisy and bustling with people, and the scene seemed chaotic for a while.
At this moment, the second prince in the room had completely regained his calm and composure.
When he heard the noise coming from outside, he frowned slightly and immediately shouted, "Butler Liu and the other stewards, come in quickly!"
After receiving the summons, Butler Liu and several other stewards hurried into the room in fear and trepidation.
They all lowered their heads, not daring to even breathe. They looked so timid and cautious, just like a few frightened rabbits.
The second prince looked at the people in front of him with a sharp gaze, his face was as gloomy as the sky before a storm, and he spoke in a low and majestic voice.
