Splendid Pastoral

Chapter 401
Xiao Yichen came to the shore of Guanxin Lake full of anger, and from a distance, he saw the servant kneeling by the lake.

The guard who was watching him from the side called out after seeing Xiao Yichen coming: "Young Master Xiao."

Xiao Yichen nodded his head indistinctly: "Thank you for your hard work, leave him to me."

"Yes."

The guards didn't try to stop them, the main reason was that before leaving, Princess Nine had told them that if Xiao Yichen came to fetch someone, let him take him away.

Xiao Yichen glanced at the servant who was kneeling on the ground, his heart became even more angry, his eyes became cold, and he said to his guard behind him: "Take him away." Then he turned and walked towards his yard.

The guard grabbed Mu Sheng by the back collar and dragged him to Xiao Yichen's yard.

I saw Xiao Yichen came to his study with a gloomy face, turned around the vase on the cabinet next to him, the bookshelf opened to both sides, and there was a secret room inside.

Although Xiao Yichen usually gives people the impression of being gentle and refined, but, after all, a person who has galloped on the battlefield for so many years still has the murderous aura that he should have.

It's just that I usually don't want to fight and kill at every turn.

However, once his rebellious scales and bottom line are violated, he will definitely not show mercy.

Right now, since Xiao Yichen has arrested Mu Sheng in his secret room to interrogate him, the meaning is self-evident, knowing the secret room of his own room, how could he let him speak?
Ever since he had a slight suspicion in his heart that Mu Sheng was going to have unruly thoughts about Wang Zimo, Xiao Yichen had no intention of letting him live.

I saw Xiao Yichen walked into the secret room and sat on the chair. At this moment, he squinted his eyes slightly and his face was very dark.

The guard threw Mu Sheng at Xiao Yichen's feet, and then waited aside.

Xiao Yichen waved to the guard: "Okay, you go out first."

"Yes." After the guard only said one word, he left the secret room and restored the mechanism by the way.

Mu Sheng lay on the ground, howling non-stop, and now he didn't show any expression of fear, and howling was just because he felt the pain in his body.

He was very calm in his heart, and he had done nothing wrong, besides, the young master usually had a good temper, so he definitely wouldn't treat him badly.

With such thoughts in mind, Mu Sheng calmed down even more, but he still showed a look of sincerity and fear, and immediately began to beg for mercy: "Young master, I don't know what mistake the slave made to make the young master move. Such a big fire?"

Xiao Yichen listened to his begging for mercy, a disdainful smile appeared on his face, he just stared at Mu Sheng who was kneeling at the bottom, but didn't speak.

Na Musheng lowered his head, not daring to raise his head to look directly into Xiao Yichen's eyes, he said again after not hearing his voice for a long time: "Young Master, please express."

Xiao Yichen stood up, put his hands behind his back, and paced back and forth in the secret room.

Hearing Xiao Yichen's footsteps, Na Musheng seemed to be stepping on his heart one after another, changed his calmness just now, and now he couldn't help swallowing nervously.

"Tell me, who is behind the scenes?"

Xiao Yichen uttered these words abruptly, which made Mu who had been kneeling on the ground stunned for a moment. After he came back to his senses, he quickly turned around and kowtowed towards the place where Xiao Yichen was standing now: "Young master, you are wronged. What kind of behind-the-scenes instigation, the servant does not understand what the young master said."

"Don't understand?" Right now Xiao Yichen had lost all his patience, walked in front of him, held the folding fan in his hand, raised his chin, and made him look up.

But after Mu Sheng raised his head, he still lowered his face, not looking at Xiao Yichen.

"look at me."

Hearing the obvious coldness in Xiao Yichen's words, Mu Sheng raised his head slowly, with a hint of fear in his eyes: "Master..."

In this imperial city, the management system in each mansion is relatively strict, especially the ladies in the imperial city, they value their innocence very much.

Although Yuan's national style is open, it is not so open that he hugs a man wet all over in broad daylight, even if the man wants to save her, that's not allowed.

If this happened, the woman would have no choice but to marry this man.

In this regard, people paid great attention to this point, so basically every mansion is equipped with special servants and servants. If a woman falls into the water, there will be servants to rescue them, and if a man falls into the water, there will be servants to rescue them.

So today, Mu Sheng went to save Wang Zimo regardless of his identity. Such behavior is really suspicious.

Besides, when Wang Zimo told Xiao Yichen that someone pushed her from behind, Xiao Yichen became even more suspicious.

"A man is not allowed to rescue a woman who fell into the water. This is the rule of the mansion."

"Master, I was really wronged. At that time, the servant jumped into the water in a moment of urgency. He really didn't think much about saving that young lady."

Xiao Yichen saw that he had been pretending to be stupid, so he directly raised his foot and kicked him aside, and didn't want to talk nonsense with him anymore.

"Since you don't want to confess to the person who instructed you behind the scenes, then you should bear all the crimes he should have suffered?"

Hearing what Xiao Yichen said, Mu Sheng raised his head and stared at him blankly: "Master, what do you mean by that? You can't wrong a good person. I didn't do anything. Why do you want to?" punish me?"

A hint of impatience flashed in Xiao Yichen's eyes, he was really obsessed.

Looking at Xiao Yichen's frowning brows and cold face, Mu Sheng never felt that his young master was as terrifying as he is now.

Xiao Yichen no longer bothered to talk to him, he walked out of the secret room, and said to the waiting guards: "Put him in the secret cell, and let me pry his mouth open."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Yichen walked away in a huff.

Mu Sheng looked at the guards who were slowly walking towards him, and panic flashed in his heart.

densely packed?What cell?He has been working in this mansion for three years, and he has never heard of any secret prison.

Mu Sheng's idea is really ridiculous, how could you, an insignificant slave, know about the secrets of the master's family?
"Don't come here, don't come here."

Mu Sheng crawled up from the ground, walked two steps back and found that it was a dead end, so he wanted to jump over the guard and escape.

I have to say that his idea is really naive.

Seeing Mu Sheng who kept running back and forth, the guard stepped forward, grabbed his collar, and punched him in the face.

Mu Sheng didn't even have time to say a word, he just fainted on the ground, the guard carried him on his shoulder and walked out quickly.
