Zhuo Wen looked at the respectful Liu Tao in front of him with some surprise. He didn't expect that the chief manager of the outer courtyard, as mentioned by Manager Chen, would be so awed when he saw him. Obviously, he must have heard about his performance in the martial arts field just now!
"It's quite rare that you, a person from the outer courtyard, are quite well-informed!" Zhuo Wen said meaningfully.
"Master Zhuo Wen powerfully defeated Zhuo Leng, the strongest disciple in the martial arts field, and defeated the martial arts coach who was in the Zhuangfu realm with just one move! Even the second master of the Zhuo family in the inner courtyard suffered a loss at the hands of Master Zhuo Wen
, such a blockbuster deed, the villain happened to see it at the martial arts field at that time!"
"At this time, Master Zhuo Wen is already the most popular figure in the entire Zhuo family. If I still can't recognize Master Zhuo, I'm really blind!" Liu Tao lowered his posture as much as possible, and his tone was extremely respectful.
said.
As soon as Liu Tao said this, the whole courtyard suddenly became quiet, and Manager Chen, who was struggling in Zhuo Wen's hands, was also stunned!
Although Steward Chen is only a small steward, his knowledge is extraordinary. He was deeply impressed by Zhuo Leng in the martial arts field!
Zhuo Leng is known as the strongest man in the martial arts field. His own strength has reached the peak of the Qi Refining Realm. It is said that he is only one step away from reaching the realm of divine bravery. Once he reaches the realm of divine bravery, he will reach the sky and become a member of the family.
The core disciple of the Academy, his status has been rising since then!
But such a young expert with such a high level of cultivation was actually defeated by this good-for-nothing young master in front of him, which made Manager Chen even more horrified!
What makes Steward Chen even more incredible is that the martial arts instructor, who was much more powerful than Zhuo Leng, was defeated by Zhuo Wen with one move, and from Liu Tao's words, it could be vaguely seen that the powerful second master of the Zhuo family in the inner court was defeated by Zhuo Wen.
It was a secret loss at the hands of Zhuo Wen!
At this moment, Manager Chen finally realized how terrifying the young master in front of him was. He knew that this time he had offended someone he shouldn't have!
"Master Zhuo Wen! Please don't kill me. What happened just now was caused by me being bewitched by this bitch. I blindly believed this bitch's words and actually tried to hurt you, Master!"
Manager Chen saw something was wrong and quickly shifted the responsibility to Lin'er, the maid not far away!
At this time, Lin'er's face turned pale. When she saw Liu Tao, the general manager of the outer courtyard, being respectful in front of Zhuo Wen, she knew that Zhuo Wen might have turned over. Thinking of her fierce words and deeds just now, Lin'er felt uneasy in her heart!
She was very afraid that Zhuo Wen would retaliate against her. After all, it seemed that Zhuo Wen's status in the family had become extraordinary. It would be easy to kill her humble maid!
Liu Tao glanced at the frightened Manager Chen with a cold look, and said with a respectful expression: "Master! How did this person offend you?"
"They are just ignorant ants. These two people were rude to me and even wanted to harm me! Manager Liu should know what to do, right?"
Zhuo Wen glanced at Manager Chen and Lin'er indifferently, threw Manager Chen on the ground, and looked directly at Liu Tao!
"These two slaves are so audacious. Young Master Zhuo Wen is now the core disciple of the noble master. You actually have evil intentions towards him. Come on! Drag these two people down and put them in an underground prison!"
Liu Tao was suddenly startled, and then stared coldly at Manager Chen and Lin'er, who were not far away, who were somewhat at a loss. In his heart, he cursed the two of them for being stupid. It was not good to offend anyone, but he had to offend the ruthless master in front of him, Liu Tao.
But having witnessed Zhuo Wen's cruel methods in the martial arts arena with his own eyes, the scene of Zhuo Wen destroying Zhuo Wu's arms is still vivid in his mind!
"Director Liu! Please spare our lives, don't put us in an underground prison! Otherwise we will die!"
As soon as Manager Chen and Lin'er heard about the underground prison, their faces suddenly turned extremely pale!
The underground black cell is famous in the outer courtyard. There is nothing in the underground black cell and it is pitch black. The people locked in it have either gone crazy or committed suicide. It can be said that the prisoners inside are simply worse than dead!
"The only thing I can blame is that you are so ignorant that you offended Master Zhuo Wen. Master Zhuo Wen was kind enough not to kill you on the spot!"
Liu Tao snorted coldly, and then immediately ordered the men behind him to take the two of them down!
After handling the affairs between the two of them, Liu Tao came to Zhuo Wen with a flattering smile on his face and said: "Master Zhuo Wen! I wonder if you are satisfied with how the villain handles it?"
Zhuo Wen nodded slightly, with a smile on his face. Liu Tao in front of him was obviously reciprocating his kindness by being so respectful to him. Zhuo Wen's status in the family has skyrocketed, and he has suddenly become a hot genius in the family!
As long as such a character does not die, he will definitely have a place in the family in the future. Liu Tao obviously saw the potential and opportunities in Zhuo Wen, so he treated Zhuo Wen so wholeheartedly. In fact, the purpose was to have a good relationship with Zhuo Wen, and in the future in the family
Just for convenience!
Zhuo Wen didn't care about Liu Tao's intention. After all, people go to higher places and water flows to lower places. Who doesn't want to be successful and stand out!
Although Liu Tao, the general manager of the outer court, has little influence in the inner court, he is like a local emperor in the outer court. More importantly, Liu Tao has a large base of subordinates. Although they are all powerful slaves, they are still a force that cannot be underestimated.
power!
Moreover, Zhuo Wen heard that the people in the outer courtyard are very well-informed, and Zhuo Wen just needs someone to collect information for him. Now, although Zhuo Wen has established a firm foothold in the family by relying on his own talent, there is no force around Zhuo Wen that he can trust.
Moreover, there is his second uncle in the inner courtyard, watching covetously from the dark!
It is absolutely necessary to establish a force that you can trust, otherwise even if you are extremely powerful, you will still be unable to defeat four people with just one fist!
And Liu Tao himself is the general manager of the outer courtyard, with many subordinates, and he is very scheming and astute. Zhuo Wen just lacks such a character!
After pondering for a while, Zhuo Wen looked at Liu Tao with a smile and said, "Liu Tao! I wonder if you are interested in becoming the housekeeper of Qianlong Pavilion?"
When Liu Tao heard this, a look of ecstasy suddenly appeared on his face. He quickly leaned over and bowed, and said with a slight tremor at the corner of his mouth: "Liu Tao is willing to become the steward of Qianlong Pavilion. I hope that I can solve the young master's problems in the future!"
Liu Tao has been waiting for Zhuo Wen's words for a long time. Originally, Liu Tao kept lowering his figure in order to gain Zhuo Wen's favor. It is best to let Zhuo Wen reuse him!
Although Liu Tao has great power in the outer courtyard and can dominate the sky with one hand, it is only the outer courtyard. Once he reaches the inner courtyard, he does not dare to be arrogant and restrains himself a lot!
Now that he has suddenly become the steward of Qianlong Pavilion, he no longer has to be as cautious in the inner courtyard as before!
Qianlong Pavilion is one of the top five huge pavilions in the inner courtyard. Not only are there many pavilions inside, but it is also said to be guarded by a team of hundreds of guards. It can be said that Qianlong Pavilion itself is a powerful force in the inner courtyard!
"I hope you can do this. If this young master discovers that you have thoughts of betrayal, I don't need to tell you what will happen!"
Zhuo Wen showed a cold smile on his lips and looked at Liu Tao indifferently.
Liu Tao looked at Zhuo Wen's indifferent eyes and couldn't help but think of the cruel methods Zhuo Wen had shown in the martial arts arena before. He couldn't help but shuddered and said quickly: "I will never dare, young master, don't worry!"
"Well! As long as you are loyal enough, your benefits will be indispensable in the future. Now you send some people to my residence to clean up. Let's go to Qianlong Pavilion first!" Zhuo Wen stroked his sleeves and took Chun'er first.
Leave first!
Liu Tao responded respectfully, and then began to dispatch his men to Zhuo Wen's dilapidated residence to tidy up!
I have to say that Liu Tao's efficiency is indeed very high. In about a quarter of an hour, Zhuo Wen's residence was cleaned up, and then he walked into the inner courtyard with a group of people!
Along the way, Zhuo Wen entered the inner courtyard unimpeded with the family token in his hand. After seeing the family token in Zhuo Wen's hand, the guards in the inner courtyard showed awe on their faces!
When Liu Tao first saw the family token in Zhuo Wen's hand, he had a look of shock on his face. The family token was the personal badge of the current head of the family, Zhuo Xiangding. He didn't expect that the head of the family would even hand over such an important thing to him.
Zhuo Wen, it shows how much he respects Zhuo Wen!
So Liu Tao became more determined to follow Zhuo Wen. He knew that the young man in front of him definitely had a bright future!
Chun'er was very curious, looking around all the way, with an excited smile on her face!
When a group of people finally arrived in front of the Qianlong Pavilion, everyone was stunned. Zhuo Wen, who had always been calm and composed, couldn't help being stunned when he saw the Qianlong Pavilion for the first time!
On a wide square stands a stone tablet several feet high. On the stone tablet are engraved the three characters "Qianlong Pavilion" written in Chinese characters. Behind the square is a tall red lacquered gate, with two huge stone lions squatting on it.
Both ends of the gate look so grand!
Behind the door is a huge attic. At first glance, it occupies a very large area!
"As expected of Qianlong Pavilion! Just from a distance, it has an aura that overwhelms the mountains!" Liu Tao looked at Qianlong Pavilion in front of him and sighed unconsciously!
At this time, hundreds of guards wearing dark yellow armor were standing upright in the huge square in front of Qianlong Pavilion. In front of the guards, there were two men riding tall blood jade horses looking down at Zhuo Wen and the others!
Zhuo Wen frowned slightly as he looked at the hundreds of guards in front of him. The purpose of these guards was obviously to stop Zhuo Wen and others!
"Young Master! These guards are called Qianlong Guards. They are the escort team of Qianlong Pavilion. The two people sitting on the blood jade horse are the chief and deputy commanders of Qianlong Guards. Their strength is at the level of Zhuangfu Realm! Look at them.
Your current attitude seems to be evil!"
Liu Tao looked at the hundreds of Qianlong Guards in front of him with some fear, and carefully whispered in Zhuo Wen's ear!
