The reborn peasant girl is rampant

Chapter 46 Punishment,

A glimmer of gloom flashed across Baili Yichen's handsome face, and he narrowed his purple eyes slightly, and said in a cold voice: "In this way, Miss Gu can go back and continue to take care of her friends. it is good"

Gu Nianyao nodded, turned and left without thinking about it.

After a while, Baili Yichen beckoned to Shaoqing who was far away, and Shaoqing walked up to Baili Yichen and knelt down on one knee, a cold voice came from the top of Shaoqing's head:

"Shaoqing, I wasn't there at the time for the products of Duke Huai's Mansion and the Gu family. Didn't you really see anything unusual?"

Shaoqing lowered his head, then knelt down on his knees suddenly, and said in a trembling tone, "I did not see anything that day. This is my crime of dereliction of duty. Please punish me by the Patriarch..."

"Shaoqing, although there are many people who come to Baili Mansion to deliver goods, this kind of thing has never happened. Can you solve the matter in front of you with just a crime of dereliction of duty?"

When Baili Yichen's gloomy eyes touched Shaoqing's slightly trembling shoulders due to guilt, he couldn't help but faintly flashed a hint of helplessness:
"Not long ago, you were ordered to go to the grocery store to solve Gu Qinghong's list. Logically speaking, you should recognize the man who delivered the goods to Gu Qinghong. Why didn't you mention anything later? Don't tell me you didn't see him begging on the street. I send you to inspect various shops every day, you will know it."

Shaoqing lowered his head and was silent for a while before explaining:

"Actually... In the few days after Gu Qinghong's list was lifted, this man surnamed Wang was already wandering around the gate of the city. His subordinates always thought that he just got lost in the capital and didn't bother to go home, so he deliberately stayed there every day. Busch, I hope it can be of some help to him."

Baili Yichen frowned slightly: "In that case, why didn't you tell me about it immediately?"

"It's my subordinate who didn't think carefully. I thought that such a trivial matter should not be reported, but this subordinate never expected that so many things would be involved because of him. Please punish this subordinate, the subordinate will never dare to make decisions on his own. .”

After finishing speaking, Shaoqing put his hands on the ground and his shoulders shook violently. The person who delivered goods to Baili Mansion from the Gu family disappeared for no reason on the way and was seriously injured. He knew how much unnecessary trouble this incident had brought to Baili Mansion very.

Therefore, even if Baili Yichen didn't punish him, Shaoqing would already feel extremely guilty in his heart.

Seeing that Shaoqing was already so guilty and pleaded guilty, Baili Yichen stretched out his hand to help him up: "Forget it, as far as this matter is concerned, the Patriarch already has a rough idea, so you go to Duke Huai's mansion and explain the things here roughly. ,and also…"

He paused in the middle of speaking, and continued as if there was something in his words: "Also, go and pass a message to the steward of Duke Huai's mansion, and ask him to come and see me alone."

Shaoqing nodded knowingly, turned and left.

……

Inside the gazebo, Dabao and Xiaobao each held a brush and were carefully tracing something. Baili Yichen, who had seen this scene not far away, suddenly walked over and pointed at the word 'Tai' on the paper. The word asked:

"What does this word read?"

He tapped the words on the paper in front of Dabao, and Dabao raised his head with a very confident voice: "This word reads Tai."

Baili Yichen raised the corners of his lips, and asked Xiaobao again: "Xiaobao, if I remove the dots in the word Tai, what will this word read?"

Hearing that the problem was different from Dabao's, Xiaobao put the brush on the table in dissatisfaction, and protested with his small mouth while rubbing his sore wrist:

"Brother Patriarch, you are not fair. You ask my brother easy things, but you ask me hard things."

Seeing Xiaobao throwing a temper tantrum, Baili Yichen couldn't help but look at Dabao who was watching the fun, "Dabao, Xiaobao is not convinced that I asked you such a simple question, what do you think should I do?"
