Chapter 470: Take him away! Beat him to death!
At this time, a little servant boy came over through the corridor, bowed to Ji Chen, and said timidly.
"Third Master, I have bought the Chenji mung bean cake you requested."
Liu Er snatched the oil-paper bag from the servant boy and glared at him: "Why did you take so long? Don't you know that the young master is waiting impatiently?!"
"You are so clumsy that you can't even do the smallest things!"
The servant was timid and was at a loss what to do after being scolded. His eyes were red. “I’m sorry, sir. I…I didn’t mean it…”
"I was accidentally knocked down just now, and I found that the mung bean cake was broken, so I went to buy another one. That's why I was delayed. I..."
Liu Er interrupted him impatiently: "Alright, alright, Master doesn't want to hear your nonsense. It's your fault for delaying the time. As a punishment, you are not allowed to eat for three days."
The servant boy's face turned pale, and he looked up at Ji Chen in panic: "Second Young Master~"
Ji Chen sat on the swing and took a bite of the sweet mung bean cake. Facing the crying servant boy, he frowned slightly and felt annoyed.
"It's so noisy~"
Seeing this, Liu Er smiled flatteringly: "Sir, calm down."
He turned his head and glanced at the servants standing on both sides, with a gloomy and ferocious look on his face, and scolded them lightly.
"What are you still standing there for? Why don't you pull him down?"
"You are disturbing my peace, watch out for your hides!"
The attendants on both sides shuddered when they heard this: "Yes!"
The servant boy turned pale with fright, fell to his knees on the ground, and begged with tears.
"No, please forgive me, Second Young Master. I won't dare to do it again next time."
Liu Er's eyes were cold and grim: "Take him away! Beat him to death!"
"No, please spare my life, please have mercy on me~"
The little boy was crying miserably and was dragged by two older servants.
At this moment, a cold voice came from behind.
"What are you doing?"
The servant who was grabbing the man stopped when he heard the voice. The little servant saw the man as if he had found a life-saving straw. He took advantage of this opportunity to push aside the two servants and rushed towards the man. "Deputy General Yuan, help me!"
"Sister Yuan?"
Ji Chen was so surprised to see Yuan Ying that she got off the swing. He checked his clothes and hair to see if they were messy, then walked over with a dignified smile.
"Sister Yuan, why are you here? Are you here to see my mother?"
Yuan Ying nodded slightly to Ji Chen: "Second Young Master."
The little servant boy hid behind Yuan Ying, trembling in fear, pulling at her sleeves and crying.
"Deputy General Yuan, please save me. The Second Young Master wants to kill me."
Yuan Ying frowned when she heard that. Ji Chen, who was standing by, caught a glimpse of Yuan Ying's expression, his face changed slightly, and he explained nervously.
"Sister Yuan, don't listen to this slave's nonsense. He was clearly the one who did something wrong. Chen'er only deducted half a month's salary from him, but he cried and said that Chen'er was vicious and wronged."
At the end of his speech, Ji Chen looked as if he was wronged and aggrieved.
He already looks pretty and cute, and now he looks so pitiful, it's really pitiful and hard to blame him.
Yuan Ying raised her eyebrows doubtfully: "Is that so?"
She didn't know the servants in the Zhan Palace, and although she had met the Second Young Master many times, they had rarely spoken to each other and she didn't know what kind of person he was.
So, for a moment, I really didn’t know who to trust.
The little servant boy really didn't expect Ji Chen to confuse right and wrong. His eyes widened with disbelief.
Seeing that the servants around him all lowered their heads and no one refuted, the little boy panicked and shook his head excitedly.
"No...it's not like that~"
"It was the Second Young Master who asked me to buy the mung bean cakes. I was just delayed for a while, and the Second Young Master got angry."
"He punished me by not allowing me to eat for three days and even said he would beat me to death. You saw everything just now, Deputy General Yuan."
"I don't want to die, I really didn't mean it. I have a sick father waiting for me at home. Deputy General Yuan, please ask the Second Young Master to spare me~"
The little servant boy pulled Yuan Ying, tears streaming down his face, his face pale.
