With an embarrassed smile, Xia Yijie quickly and politely led his new ancestor to the innermost cell.

"Miss Chu, these places outside are only used during interrogations, so it's inevitable that they're a little unsightly. I'll ask someone to come and clean them up in a bit.

You can take a break inside first, it's quite clean here. Of course, if there's anything inappropriate, please tell me, I will definitely change the layout later..."

"Don't worry, I won't run around."

Maybe it was because the other party's expression was too obvious, Chu Chi strangely understood what he meant, and he patted his chest and made a promise as soon as he opened his mouth.

"I've already promised that I'll be waiting here for Shen Xiaowu to pick me up. Don't worry, I won't run around."

"That's right, Miss Chu, you are right. Let's just wait here for Shen Xiaowu to come."

Although he didn't know who this Shen Xiaowu was, it didn't stop Xia Yijie from nodding his head desperately in agreement. As long as this lady didn't cause trouble on his own land, he would be willing to beat her up and worship her now!

"Then you should have a good rest first, I won't disturb you."

"See you."

It can be seen that both sides are quite polite.

After bringing the man in and settling him down, Xia Yijie went outside and very solemnly instructed the jailers several times to make sure they took good care of the man. Only then did he quietly leave with a sigh of relief.

The deputy commander's abnormal operation, which obviously reversed his identities, confused some of his subordinates who had not gone to Prince Ding's Mansion with him just now.

"Sir, who is this girl inside? Why does she need you to serve her so attentively?"

The chief jailer, who had escorted his master to the door, really couldn't figure out what was going on here, so he could only inquire carefully.

Logically speaking, if they were royal relatives, they shouldn't be imprisoned in this small place, right? The Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple, etc., don't they have prisons waiting for those nobles? Why would they condescend to come to this corner of their house to suffer?

But if the girl inside has no background, then their master's obviously abnormal behavior is not justifiable! Although Master Xia's official position is not very high, he is a descendant of a big family after all, and he has a lot of connections behind him. Is there really no need for him to be so servile to others?

He really couldn't figure it out, so he had no choice but to ask.

"You know nothing!"

Xia Yijie raised his eyebrows and snorted, turned his head to look in the direction of the prison, then walked out while explaining a few words in a low voice.

"This is someone that Duke Wu specifically asked to be taken care of. The third son of the Minister of Justice, Chu Zongyuan, personally instructed us to take good care of him!

Do you know the girl's last name?

My surname is Chu!

Who can I show my family background to in this capital? If I don't serve her carefully, what do you want from me? And you, you must remember what I just told you, and make sure you keep her here, and don't let her out!

Of course, don't say that I didn't take care of you. I've taken good care of him this time. If I have a chance to go out again, I'll definitely mention your name.

However, if you don't use your eyesight well and do something you shouldn't do, and offend this little ancestor inside, then you will bear the consequences of your life or death, and it has nothing to do with me!"

To put it bluntly, the reason why he was so polite to Chu Chi was not only because of Duke Wu's greeting first, but also because of his sincere feelings behind it.

It was really because he had just watched the other person being kicked far away with such a light kick without any pressure, which gave him a great shock.

This is equivalent to telling him clearly that the girl came in with skills!

The layman looks at the excitement and the insider looks at the doorway.

Isn't it just cowardice?

It's not shameful.

How much salary is a month? Is it worth it for him to sacrifice his life for nothing? It is not easy for his parents to raise him up, so why should he just turn a blind eye and continue to smooth things over?

After explaining the importance of the matter several times, and only after the jailer nodded in agreement happily, Xia Yijie stepped away.

Go to your superiors immediately to ask for help.

Alas, it is not good to be an official in the capital. When a sign falls down, it overwhelms five people and it seems that four out of them must be ancestors from the families of the rich and powerful.

For example, this time, it is clear that the Zheng family, the Chu family, and the Wu family are going to fight to the death. Even more seriously, it is possible that Prince Kang and Prince Xuan are going to fight!

There are no small matters in the royal family, especially now that the crown prince has stepped down and the position of heir to the throne is vacant. Who knows what these people in power can do?

If he is not careful, he may be involved in the bloodbath and suffer misfortune! Alas, the gods are fighting above, and the little devils are suffering below. These little shrimps are really in a dilemma.

After Lord Xia left, Chu Chi happily walked back and forth in his cell several times.

It must be said that the rooms inside are indeed better decorated than outside. And Xia Yijie is really considerate, he didn't even close the door, the main purpose is to let her enjoy full freedom here.

Of course, this makes it more convenient for curious children who have just arrived to have close and friendly interactions with their neighbors.

She remembered what Chu Xiaosan once said: as a smart person, one must know how to make friends with others.

Although I still don't understand why smart people must know how to make friends? But it doesn't matter. You don't have to think about things you don't understand. The main thing is that she listens to advice.

So she walked to the door of the room on the left with her hands behind her back and stuck her precious smart head in the middle of the wooden fence. Well, the position was just right and she was very satisfied.

"Hello, I'm Chu Chi, what's your name?"

The other person was still lying there dumbly, not moving or responding, as if he hadn't heard her. So polite Chu Daidai raised her voice a little.

"Hello! I'm Chu Chi, what's your name?"

This time the other party heard it, but instead of standing up to talk to her in a friendly manner and introduce themselves to her, he cursed at her in a vicious tone.

"Get out of here and don't bother me!"

Chu Chi blinked in confusion.

Isn't this quite the same as what Chu Xiaosan told me? Why is it that when he makes friends, he always meets a good friend like me who is qualified in all aspects, while when I make friends, I always meet a bad friend like this?

This is not right.

Is she taking advantage of me?!

So, this new type of social bully who felt she was being treated differently became unhappy.

The snow-white fingers took the initiative to reach out for the two layers of chains on the other party's wooden door. With a crisp click, the lock opened its mouth obediently.
