Liu Manor
The butler reported to his master with a very bad expression and said,”
Master, someone from the Ministry of Justice has arrived!”
Why would the Ministry of Justice come to the Liu residence for no reason? It must be because it was related to the case of the Lin family slandering the princess of Guguo,
However, coming to the Liu residence meant that they might have already found out about the Liu residence.
Liu Xinren’s face darkened as he said to the butler,” They’re not friendly. Go and send them away.”
The butler said,” But, Master, the person who came is the Minister of Justice.
This… This old servant can’t just send him away!’
The Minister of Justice was a second- grade official, the same as his master.
Therefore, he was not someone a slave could dismiss!
Liu Xinren thought for a moment and said to the butler,” Just say that your master is sick and can’t meet guests!”
The butler thought for a moment and said,” Yes, Master!”
After the butler left, he said to the Minister of Justice,” I’m sorry, Lord Dai. My master is unwell and is not in a good condition to receive guests! If you have any urgent matters, this old servant can pa.s.s them on to my master!”
After hearing the butler’s words, a hint of anger appeared on the lord Dai’s face.
Liu Xinren was not sick before, and he was not sick after that. However, after the butler went in, he fell ill.
Hehe, he was just fooling a three-year-old.
Lord Dai placed the cup in his hand on the table and said seriously,” Since Lord Liu is seriously ill, then as a colleague, I should be more concerned. Let’s go, housekeeper, take me to see Lord Liu!”
Butler Liu was shocked when he heard that Lord Dai was going to visit his old master.
He hurriedly stopped him and said,” Lord Dai, there’s no need. The doctor said that this kind of cold is contagious. Therefore, for the sake of your health, it’s better for you not to go!’
Lord Dai waved his hand and said,” Hey, what are you saying? My colleague was sick. Since I’m here, how could I not go and visit?”
As he spoke, he headed in the direction of Lord Liu’s house. Butler Liu did not have time to stop him.
However, not long after, Lord Liu appeared with the help of his servants. “Cough cough…l don’t know… Cough cough…” Lord Liu coughed violently after saying a few words. His face was a little pale as he panted heavily and continued, “l didn’t know that Lord Dai had arrived. I’m sorry for my disrespect!
Lord Dai took a few steps forward and cupped his hands in front of his chest.” Lord Liu, I’m sorry for disturbing you!!
Then, he sized up Lord Liu’s expression and frowned slightly. He immediately asked in confusion,” Lord Liu, you were very healthy yesterday. Why are you sick suddenly?”
Butler Liu immediately went forward and explained, “Lord Dai, my master accidentally had a cold wind enter his body last night and had a high fever in the middle of the night. Only this morning did the heat subside slightly. However, the doctor said that he still needs to rest in bed!”
Then, he stepped forward and said,” Sir, the doctor instructed you to rest in bed. How can you get out of bed?”
Lord Liu waved his hand and said, “I’m fine. Cough cough… I should have come out to welcome Sir Dai!”
After he finished speaking, a servant girl hurriedly ran out and said anxiously,” Master, you should take your medicine!”
Lord Liu immediately reprimanded sternly, “What are you shouting for? Cough cough… Can’t you see that your Master… Cough cough is entertaining guests?”
Although he looked stern on the surface, he sounded weak.
The servant girl seemed a little aggrieved, but she insisted,” But, Master, if you don’t take the medicine, it will get cold!”
When lord Dai heard this, he frowned and said,” Then Lord Liu, rest first and recuperate. I’ll take my leave!”
When Lord Liu heard this, he was delighted in his heart, but he did not show it on his face. He said, “Then, 1 will not send you off!”
After Lord Dai left, Lord Liu, who was being supported by his servants, immediately bent his hands. He looked energetic and didn’t look sick at all. However, his eyes stared coldly at the departing figure.
“You can leave!” Lord Liu ordered.
“Yes, sir!” The servants immediately replied.
When there was no one else, Butler Liu smiled and said,” Master, you’re still brilliant. Once you appear, you make Lord Dai leave!”
Lord Liu snorted coldly and said,” If we don’t do this, that stinking rock Dai Lixin will definitely not be willing to leave! ”
Butler Liu was still very worried.” Old Master, Lord Dai has already left..
However, would Sir Dai give up just like that?”
