Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey!

"No, I must urgently report this news to the guild leader; otherwise, Chen Jiusi will definitely have him schemed against."

Thinking of this, Zhuzi looked at the somewhat panicked Cuiju. Cuiju said, "Zhuzi."

"Ah?"

As Zhuzi looked at Cuiju, she said, "Should we tell Guild Leader Nan about this, or perhaps Darugachi, the Hall Master? He has been secretly colluding with the Zoroastrian Sect. If caught, that is an offense punishable by the extermination of nine generations. By then, we, as mere servants, will definitely suffer too. I don’t want to get arrested by the government, Zhuzi, you must help me!"

"Let’s report it to the authorities!"

Cuiju looked at Zhuzi, who responded, "Sister Cuiju, don’t be foolish. As two servants reporting our master, it’s impossible for us to win. No one would believe us."

"But I heard everything with my own ears! I can testify!"

As Cuiju spoke, Zhuzi responded, "Sister, don’t joke around. Who would believe a maid’s word? Even if we report to Lord Yelu, the Hall Master only needs to claim that you framed him. He could even say that you conspired with the guild leader, Nan Batian, to accuse him, and then he’ll be off the hook, but what about you, Sister Cuiju?"

"So, Sister, don’t be foolish. It’s impossible to win this; just forget all about it. If anything like this happens again, come to me and I’ll help you ponder over it. Don’t ever do anything rash; it could cost you your life."

"Ah, alright. I’ll listen to you, all of it!"
