Chapter 396: Origin

The housekeeper of the Tang family is a person who understands the general trend and understands things, and after Li Yan's persuasion, he finally threw an olive branch of peace to Tang Chuan. [No pop-ups. For Tang Chuan, this is tantamount to saving a lot of trouble.

In this regard, it is worthy of the talent he focuses on cultivating, and Li Manhuang's efficiency is indeed good

However, the Tang family's housekeeper threw out an olive branch, which does not necessarily mean that he is in charge of the entire Tang family manor, in the final analysis, the owner of this Tang family manor is the old man of the Tang family.

"By the way, Steward Tang knows that in this underground secret passage, there is a woman who has come and gone without a trace" Suddenly thinking of the woman who was inexplicably full of mysteries, Tang Chuan hurriedly asked.

"I don't know much about that person, I only know that she has a quirky personality, and she has always been a loner in doing things, and everything is done according to her own preferences. The reason why he is in the Tang family manor is also because he fell in love with the secret passages that extend in all directions under the manor. ”

After recalling it slightly, Steward Tang told it all very honestly.

Originally, the old man was also going to arrest her, but because her cultivation was too high and unfathomable, the old man and the old medicine head were unpredictable. In addition, the woman did not do anything that had an impact on the Tang family, and over time, the old man let it go. ”

"Oh yes" Tang Chuan tilted his head slightly, his gaze drifted to the unknown distance, as if thinking about something.

"Then, Steward Tang, with your understanding of Old Man Tang" Retracting his distant thoughts, Tang Chuan paused, glanced at Steward Tang coldly, and slowly swallowed word by word and asked, "Where do you think Old Man Tang and Old Medicine Head will be hiding now?"

"This" Steward Tang hesitated for a while, looked at Tang Chuan's eyes, and was a little embarrassed, "I can probably guess a few places with high probabilities"

"Why" Tang Chuan ignored it, and didn't seem to take Steward Tang's embarrassment in his eyes, "thinking about the old feelings"

"This" Steward Tang's face froze, and his face was a little embarrassed.

"Please forgive me for overstepping the rules" Steward Tang directly looked righteous and awe-inspiring, and was not ready to hide or play any tricks, so he simply opened the skylight and said bright words, "I also begged Doctor Tang to open the net and leave his life"

"Heh" Tang Chuan sneered inexplicably, "It's easy to say"

If they know each other, then it is easy to say. It's just that Tang Chuan will not leave behind a scourge that will affect himself or the people he cares about, that's for sure.

Overall, Steward Tang's performance was qualified. Although Tang Chuan admires people who focus on the overall situation and know how to look at the current situation, if they are people who have been together for decades but don't care about the old feelings at all, Tang Chuan doesn't need it.

"Trouble the housekeeper, ask someone to call Li Manhuang, I have something to explain to him."

Tang Chuan likes to do things on the spot, and he doesn't like to drag it out, this matter of the old man of the Tang family and the old medicine head, naturally the sooner it is handled, the sooner it will be finished.

However, on this premise, he had to settle Zhou Xiaonuo before he could start acting, no matter how strong Tang Chuan's ability was, it was impossible to fight with Zhou Xiaonuo anytime and anywhere.

Others Tang Chuan is not at ease, he can still trust Li Manhuang's loyalty and ability. Only by asking Li Manhuang to come to protect Zhou Xiaonuo's personal safety at all times can he rest assured.

Looking down at Zhou Xiaonuo's sleeping face, Tang Chuan sighed in his heart, if he didn't have to deal with things, he really didn't want to leave Xiaonuo's warm fragrance and warm jade

After Tang Chuan's order, the Tang official family immediately sent someone to the gate of the manor to invite Li Manhuang. Tang Guanjia is a very discerning person, looking at Tang Chuan's expression, even if Tang Chuan has not said anything, Tang Guanjia still prepared a room very well for Zhou Xiaonuo to rest.

Almost after a stick of incense, Li Manhuang hurried to the room where Tang Chuan was.

"Brother Chuan, I'm here" Li Manhuang entered the room with a big grin, although Tang Chuan was his master and boss, but because of his similar age, Li Manhuang still treated Tang Chuan more as a friend.

"Shut up." Tang Chuan replied unceremoniously.

"Eh" Li Man was stunned for a moment, and when he saw Zhou Xiaonuo lying on the bed resting, he reacted instantly, "Hehe" smiled dryly, a little embarrassed, "Brother Chuan still knows to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade"

"You're guarding Xiaonuo here, don't let anyone disturb her." Tang Chuan, who was originally sitting on the edge of the bed, got up, "I'll go and finish everything first." ”

"Take care of Xiaonuo, if she is a little displeased, you should be ready to loosen your muscles"

"Brother Chuan, don't" As soon as Li Manhuang heard this, he instantly became anxious, "It's okay for you to let me do things, I'm not good at coaxing girls."

Li Manhuang can do everything he ordered in Tangchuan as perfectly as possible, but he is the only one who is hard at coaxing girls, not to mention that this object is still a woman from Tangchuan.

"Otherwise, you leave things to me to do, how about you accompany me here" Li Man discussed weakly.

"The old man of the Tang family and the old medicine head, if you think you can deal with it, then you go" Tang Chuan sneered, if it wasn't for the purpose of recovering the red needle, Tang Chuan didn't want to leave when Zhou Xiaonuo needed him.

"Hehe" Li Manhuang's face stiffened, he laughed a few times, suddenly raised his head and stood up straight, pretended to give a military salute, and replied categorically, "Guarantee the completion of the task"

"Never let others hurt Miss Zhou's hair"

Tang Chuan glanced at Li Manhuang slantedly, and didn't say anything, but habitually glanced back at Zhou Xiaonuo, and saw that she was sleeping comfortably, so he didn't say more, and he lifted his breath under his feet, and he flew out of the room and crossed to the place where Steward Tang was outside the door.

"Let's go." Tang Chuan landed next to Steward Tang lightly, and said concisely, Steward Tang hurriedly led the way, and moved towards the place where he guessed that Old Man Tang and the old medicine head were probably located.

Tang Chuan followed behind Steward Tang, watching him always press the secret door switch in an inconspicuous place, and moving forward like a maze in the dark passage that was not spacious and bright, silently remembering the location and route of the secret door mechanism.

"That's it, I guess." After about a stick of incense, Steward Tang stopped in front of a secret door, turned to Tang Chuan and said, "If I didn't guess wrong, it should be right here." ”

"Since you're here, come in" As soon as Steward Tang's words fell, Old Man Tang's deep voice came from inside the secret door. Although his voice was full of energy, Tang Chuan still heard a sense of decadence from it.

Steward Tang's figure trembled invisibly, and then returned to its original state, as if the tremor just now was just an illusion.

Steward Tang quietly opened the secret door mechanism, after the secret door was opened, it suddenly opened up, different from the passage outside, the room inside was spacious and bright, and the area was also large, it looked like it should be a practice room.

And Old Man Tang sat cross-legged on the ground, his eyes closed, calm, and his face looked very calm. The old medicine head was sitting cross-legged not far from Old Man Tang's side, contrary to Old Man Tang's calm face, his face was full of haze, and his body also exuded a thick black air pressure.

"I knew you would come, but I didn't expect it to come so soon"

"Since you are here together" Old Man Tang opened his eyes and looked at Steward Tang, his eyes were blazing, "I guess I believe that you have already thrown an olive branch."

Steward Tang's original name was Shen Hengxin, but after many years in the Tang family, the title of Steward Tang followed him like a shadow, and gradually became Shen Hengxin's name.

"Old man, for so many years, you should always know where my ideals are" Steward Tang was neither humble nor arrogant, and did not explain much, but only felt guilty.

"I didn't expect you to be surrendered so quickly" In his memory, Shen Hengxin should not be such an easy person to be surrendered.

"It's not that I'm surrendered." Steward Tang retorted lightly, "It's just the persuasion of old friends, and the good birds choose trees to perch on." ”

"Hehe" Old Man Tang laughed dryly, and he didn't pursue it much, "For so many years, Tang Liu's personality and temperament have not been very promising, but it is difficult for you to endure it all the time."

When Steward Tang was only Shen Hengxin and Old Man Tang was only Tang Jiahui, as soon as the two met, they hit it off at first sight, and the heroes sympathized with each other.

Tang Jiahui is determined to break out of the world, but it is a pity that there are too few people around him who have strategies but can confess. And Shen Hengxin is just the opposite, not only has no desire for status, money and power, but has a deep sense of accomplishment for his own advice and success.

At the moment, the two hit it off, complemented each other and helped each other, which broke out of the world in Yanjing.

It's just a pity that no matter how successful a person is, he can't withstand the passage of time, and Tang Jiahui has only one son Tang Liu.

Tang Liu, under the oppression of Tang Jiahui, Shen Hengxin, and the three old medicine heads who joined the Tang family halfway, his cultivation was indeed considerable, and he was worthy of being a young man, but his heart had not grown much, and he was really not a good expert who could take power.

Therefore, over the years, even if Tang Liu's cultivation has achieved great success, Tang Jiahui still can't completely rest assured that he will inherit the position of the head of the Tang family. And Shen Hengxin, under Tang Liu's repeated teachings, also slowly became discouraged and lost patience.

"If you follow Tang Liu, it will indeed bury your ability" Old Man Tang sighed, Zhuge Liang, who had a clever plan in ancient times, was only eight buckets high, but when he met Adou who couldn't be helped, he still ended up regretting it for life.

For Tang Liu's heart has always been immature, in addition to being helpless, Old Man Tang is still helpless. The relationship with Steward Tang is a relationship between the top and bottom on the surface, but in fact, it is also a close friend for many years, and he knows that his son's incompetence has kept him suppressed.

Steward Tang has always followed Old Man Tang's side, laying the foundation for the Tang family's family diligently, but he has never wanted anything in return. For so many years, Old Man Tang knows the roots, but he can't repay him, so Old Man Tang is selfish, and he also hopes that his best friend for many years will not regret Zhuge Liang as much.
