Chapter 779: Re-entering the Garden
readx;?“ May I ask what is the name of this person, and what is his position in the City Lord's Mansion?"
Zuo Feng did not rush to answer the other party's question, but instead pointed to the seat next to him, motioning for the middle-aged man to sit down, and then asked. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
This time it wasn't like chatting with Amber before, he didn't deliberately lower his voice, he also deliberately wanted the people around him to hear what he said. The middle-aged man was slightly stunned, but then he happily did it, ready to clasp his fists and salute again.
Zuo Feng waved his hand, refused to salute him again, and said, "You don't need to be so polite, it's almost enough." ”
The middle-aged man was stunned again, he didn't expect Zuo Feng to be so interesting, not at all like the unfathomable and extremely mysterious terrifying teenager that the city lord said. He couldn't connect the humorous young man in front of him with the evaluation in the mouth of the city lord no matter what.
With a slight smile, he said: "I am an ordinary supervisor in the City Lord's Mansion, and my identity is like this, my status cannot be discussed, it is just so-so." This time I came to invite you by order of the city lord, and before leaving, he also made a special explanation, so that I must discuss with you that I can't use it. ”
There weren't many people in this restaurant, and most of them came in after Zuo Feng came, so the dishes ordered by Zuo Feng came up quickly.
Listening to what he said, Zuo Feng did not answer immediately, but made a gesture of please. The middle-aged man shook his head with a smile and said, "I have already eaten, and the city lord's mansion has also prepared a meal, which has been specially explained by the city lord." ”
Zuo Feng waved his hand and said, "Since this meal has been ordered, it would be too wasteful not to eat it." Since the supervisor didn't eat, the friend and I were welcome. ”
The middle-aged man nodded with a smile and said, "Since that's the case, then I'm not welcome." But I don't dare to call the director, you can call me Tao Steward. ”
As he spoke, the middle-aged man picked up his chopsticks and unceremoniously picked up the dish and took a bite. Seeing that this Tao steward began to eat so generously, not only did he not have the slightest dislike for him, but he had a good impression of him.
"The city lord asked you to invite me, but you said what you want me to do, it won't be as simple as just letting me come and be a guest. If there's anything you want, it's best to make it clear before I go. ”
The middle-aged man smiled and spread his hands and said, "I didn't expect Shen Gongzi to confess so much, so I won't beat around the bush." The city lord invited you to be a guest, firstly, because he wanted to ask about some important things, and secondly, he also wanted to help Shen Gongzi solve the troubles in front of him, so it should be regarded as taking what he needs.
Of course, just like this invitation, it is done by respecting Shen Gongzi's wishes. Obviously, this invitation is also a test for Shen Gongzi, and I can't make you believe everything I say, but if it were me, I would probably bet on it, after all, ......"
When he said this, Director Tao didn't forget to turn his head and look around, the meaning of which was self-evident.
Zuo Feng smiled slightly, but did not answer what he said, but lowered his head and ate the meal in front of him. Amber didn't say anything from beginning to end, he just silently ate the meal in front of him, listened carefully to the conversation between the two, and understood what Zuo Feng was thinking with his understanding.
After a while, when Zuo Feng and Amber came out of the restaurant, there was one more person beside them, it was the Tao master of the City Lord's Mansion.
This person speaks extremely politely and reasonably, and at the same time is very low-key, if it is not for a clear-eyed person, it is difficult to see that this person's cultivation has reached the Qi refining stage, and his mind is very outstanding, compared to his cultivation, it is much more powerful. Otherwise, it would be impossible for the city lord to let him be a lobbyist, and Zuo Feng made a statement between a few words of conversation.
The three of them did not walk on the street, although some people followed behind and on both sides, but these people obviously knew the Tao master, so they would deliberately keep a certain distance from the three of them.
Master Tao was obviously clear about the people around him, but he didn't care too much. Said casually: "Little brother Shen Feng is really calculating, I didn't expect that in less than half an hour in the morning, the painter's seventh prince had already entered the game, it seems that our city lord's evaluation of you is still lower." ”
Zuo Feng remained silent, but he didn't deliberately deny it, just casually said "oh".
Director Tao didn't care either, and continued: "Actually, this method of yours not only fooled us, but even the Su family and Yao Zhen have already fallen into the Tao. It's just that although your method is good, it won't last long, at least those of us who found out at the first time already understand that this is your next trick. ”
This Tao master had no intention of concealing it at all, but he was extremely honest, and his good impression of Zuo Feng was a little more.
Listen to him, his method is indeed a success. But in this way, the City Lord's Mansion and the Su family, which are very powerful, will inevitably send people to investigate. The painter has become the target of public criticism, and of course he will not be as timid as he is to deal with Zuo Feng, and he will not dare to cause dissatisfaction among other families.
They directly sent the masters of the family, and even swaggered into the painter to investigate. It was also discovered relatively early in Huaqi, so after he understood Zuo Feng's purpose, he immediately issued a strict order, do not have any obstruction to those masters, and do not take the initiative to provoke, let them come and go freely to check at will.
Hua Qi is also a shrewd person, although he was deceived by Zuo Feng at first, but he reacted soon after. Although his approach was a little cowardly, he knew that if he had any action to resist, it would immediately make people misunderstand it even deeper, and when the time came, he would really jump into Ye Xuanjiang and he would not be able to wash it.
Powerful forces such as the City Lord's Mansion and the Su Family sent out not only a high level of cultivation, but also a large number. Because they didn't have too many scruples, coupled with the explanation of Hua Qi, they were like no one in the painter's cultivation ground, and they investigated all the suspicious places.
But in the end, of course, nothing was found, and the principals of these families also realized that this was mostly a ploy of Zuo Feng. Since Zuo Feng has a dislike for the painter, he came to visit so early and gave important things, which is indeed a bit unreasonable.
But if you think of it as a conspiracy, a conspiracy that puts the painter in opposition to everyone, it makes sense.
Now that the City Lord's Mansion has reacted, most of the Su family and Yao Zhen have also understood this matter, and knowing how much this still makes Zuo Feng sigh a little secretly.
He had something in his heart at this time, and he didn't deliberately hide it on the surface, and Steward Tao was immediately aware of it. He stretched out his finger and pointed to the side, and said, "I don't think you need to be so discouraged, although I don't know what method you used, but this painter is indeed in a lot of trouble at the moment." ”
Seeing Zuo Feng's puzzled look, he continued: "Everything that happened before and after you as a painter was seen by various families outside, and it was also because you did enough work that anyone including us and other big forces believed it was true.
When we carry out our actions, the painter is not open to everyone, and those who do not have a strong family background are still seriously injured or beaten away by the two old men of the painter, so that some things are not clear. ”
Hearing this news, Zuo Feng was also secretly happy in his heart, and at the same time, he also felt that the middle-aged man beside him was worthy of being the head of the City Lord's Mansion. Not to mention the delicate mind, the observation of words and colors is also a first-class level, and I can see some doorways from the changes in my demeanor, and the content of what I say is what I want to hear.
He believed that this was not a fabrication made up by Master Tao to cater to himself, and that the two old men of the painter had seen them with their own eyes, and that the two old men had lived to be dogs at a young age. Don't think about it, and it's still the kind of impulsive and irritable character, but it's really a good character to help yourself drag seven backwards.
It's a pity that I didn't know much about these at the beginning, if I had this news earlier, I could have made some deployments in advance, then the result would probably be more satisfactory.
Not to mention that these two old men have injured a lot of people in the invading family, even if they only hurt one and a half, it will cause a lot of shock. The practice of painting seven is the safest, at this time it is easy to be quiet and not easy to move, and the more you act, the easier it is to arouse the suspicion and attention of other families.
Now it seems that the period before the painter's selection tomorrow should not pose any threat to himself. In this way, some of the troubles for the left wind are reduced.
The three of them came to the villa between talking and talking, remembering the scene when he came here the night before, Zuo Feng couldn't help but feel a little emotional. This mountain courtyard is a blessed land and a dangerous place for itself.
I have gained a lot of benefits here, and at the same time, I have made a lot of enemies here and caused a lot of trouble. If the time could be rewind to that night, Zuo Feng might have hesitated to participate in the competition, but after thinking about it, most of the results were the same as now.
Believe or not walk through the huge archway, the group led by the city lord has stood at the main entrance of the annex at this time. Standing beside the lord of the castle stood a row of warriors, each dressed in military uniforms, who also looked very energetic.
Looking at it, there were no Su Jing and Su Xiao father and son among these people, which made Zuo Feng feel a little relieved.
The city lord saw Zuo Feng walking beside Master Tao, and walked down the steps with a loud laugh. His pace was not too fast, and he deliberately pressed his speed until the left wind reached the bottom of the steps, and only then did he walk a few quick steps to the bottom of the steps and stand.
These powerful people are particularly concerned about some details, and he deliberately does this, which is to make himself appear one level higher than Zuo Feng, and at this time, Zuo Feng must raise his head when he looks at him.
