C22

In the courtyard, Shu Xiu was lying on a bench, beside him were two servants holding sticks.

"Isn't that Shu Xiu, who is by Madam's side? How did you get beaten up like this? "

"I heard that Miss ordered the fight. It's said that she still needs to play the board later."

"Still hitting? Can't you beat him to death? How did Shu Xiu offend the young miss? "

"Who knows? Maybe our young miss is getting even more sick."

All of the servant girls discussed with each other.

Steward Cao brought a few servants and hurried over.

"Even the Steward Cao is here, what do you think happened to the young miss?"

"With Steward Cao here, I'm afraid we won't be able to fight this Shu Xiu."

Who didn't know that Shu Xiu, who was standing next to the's beloved wife, was only waiting for her to become old before bringing her home as a concubine?

"Get out of the way."

Steward Cao pushed the surrounding people away and when he saw Shu Xiu gasping for his breath on the bench, he instantly became angry.

"What's going on? Who beat her up like that?"

Seeing the Steward Cao angry, the surrounding people immediately lowered their heads in panic.

"It's me."

A clear and cold voice came out. Everyone looked up and saw Bai Li leisurely walking over with a red jade crescent phoenix tail dress, Qi Wen and Yun Zhi following closely behind.

In a split-second, everyone was stunned.

Is, is this the Eldest Miss? Why is it different now?

"I was the one who beat him up, what about it, does Steward Cao have any objections?"

Bai Li walked to the front of the group and smiled sinisterly at Steward Cao.

Steward Cao regained his senses as a ball of rage instantly ignited within his eyes.

"I wonder what kind of mistake Shu Xiu made, for Eldest Miss to beat her up like this?"

Hearing the Steward Cao's obvious question, Bai Li's smile became even wider. He leisurely turned around and walked to the hollow wooden chair made of yellow pear that he had prepared earlier. He flung his skirt and entered his seat.

Yun Zhi gave her the teacup with eyes and picked it up from the ground.

Bai Li took the cup, leisurely lifted the teacup and took a sip. That carefree attitude of hers made it seem as if she hadn't heard Steward Cao's question at all. That calm and graceful manner of hers made the hearts of the servants jump when they saw this scene.

Steward Cao frowned, he coldly stared at Bai Li, his eyes filled with impatience.

Just as Steward Cao exhausted his patience, Bai Li finally raised his eyes, "Steward Cao seems to have forgotten his identity."

Steward Cao frowned, he finally noticed the change in Bai Li.

Bai Li lazily leaned against the back of the chair and slowly put down the cup of tea.

"What is your crime, your great lord?"

General Xie's voice was full of coldness.

Qi Wen coldly glanced at Steward Cao and slowly said one word: "Kill him."

"Well said."

Bai Li raised his eyebrows and smiled sinisterly as he looked at Steward Cao, "Which method of death does Steward Cao wish to choose, to feed the tiger, the wolf, or the dog?"

Looking at the killing intent shining in Bai Li's eyes, Steward Cao's heart trembled uncontrollably. For a moment, he felt that he had seen the old general and the Marquis.

Suppressing the fear in his heart, Steward Cao bowed slightly, "This old servant does not dare."

Bai Li sneered, and lightly raised his hand.

With just one action, the executioner immediately understood what was going on, and waved his staff towards Shu Xiu's back.

If it was said that they had any scruples before, now that they saw Bai Li acting in such a manner, they no longer had any thoughts of disobeying his orders.

The solid plank landed on Shu Xiu's back, and the originally silent Shu Xiu instantly started to wail.

That forlorn wail caused the servant girl by the side to feel a chill run down her spine.

Steward Cao had a face full of pity.

"Aiyo, what's wrong?"

A voice full of feigned shock suddenly sounded, causing everyone to raise their gazes.
