183 Felling of trees

"Huang's birthday, Kunlun Xiantao appeared at the birthday banquet?"

Outside the city of Baonan, in Tieling Village.

When Su Tiecheng, the third chief of the Baohou Mansion, heard the news, he was standing at the window of the study, looking at a golden laurel tree in the courtyard.

This is a laurel tree that he planted with his own hands when he was given Tielingzhuang in the past. At this time in previous years, the golden cinnamon was already fragrant, but this year, for some reason, not even a single flower has bloomed.

Mr. Su San has been living quite leisurely recently. It's just that this kind of leisure is definitely not what he wants-he, the third head of the Hou Mansion, is a deputy position, and he does not need him to manage the daily affairs of the Hou Mansion. If the head of power, that is, Bai Er, is willing to cooperate, he can get in touch with some things in advance to prepare for taking over the management of the Hou Mansion in the future.

It's a pity that Su Tiecheng and Bai Er don't deal with each other, and under the latter's various means, there are very few things he can meddle in the affairs he manages. In the past, when the little marquis still trusted him, he often gave him some things, but in the past six months, this kind of task has gradually disappeared, and he has even stopped summoning him for a long time.

Of course, Su Tiecheng knew what the reason was - he had offended people. Offending people is not a problem for him, and if he wants to break the routine in just 20 years, from a mere casual cultivator to the head of the Hou Mansion in power, he doesn't know how many people's interests will be snatched away, how can he not offend people!

But offending the wrong is the key - that Huang Jiasanlang, who didn't take it seriously before, even if he has some sect background, he is just a twenty-year-old young man, and his decades of experience plus the advantage of "local snake" can suppress him.

Who would have thought that Lao Jianghu also had a time when he looked away, and he Su Tiecheng actually made the mistake of treating the tiger as a cat - that kid was far beyond his own ability in terms of strength and cunning. The attempt to suppress him ended in complete failure, and he lost a lot of property in vain, not to mention favors, and became a pathfinder and a laughing stock for others.

Originally, if this was the end of the matter, and the two had nothing to do with each other from now on, then it would be over. But the super capable person surnamed Huang only came out of something today, and some new news will come out tomorrow...... Since he returned to Baoguo for half a year, almost all the big news in Baonan City has been related to him.

And the stupidity and mistakes about his Su Tiecheng have naturally been mentioned again and again, and the once strict and fierce Su San, who is famous for his prestige, has now become almost a clown-like figure in the praise of the people, what a humiliation!

If it's just a folk comment, then that's fine, after all, the thoughts of those fools and fools are insignificant, and the opinions of many high-ranking families are the core. However, as the Huang family increasingly entered the high-level circle of the Bao Kingdom, there were more and more people who wanted to make friends with him.

Even if it is to save face for the Huang family, it must alienate the other party who has contradictions with it - and unfortunately, the Huang family rose too fast and didn't even have time to make any enemies. At present, he is not on the right path with their family, and he is rummaging through the country, which is just a Su family.

The situation has changed, coupled with the new and old hatreds of the past, he Tie Lingzhuang has unknowingly become the target of everyone. Although he has not been hit publicly, the feeling of being restricted everywhere and struggling is like a fish drinking water, and he knows his own warmth and coldness.

What's worse is that even the lord of the country, the Hi family, has shown great kindness to the Huang family. In this way, Su Tiecheng, as the first person to propose the strategy of "preventing the little marquis from making friends with the Huang family", was immediately punished by the backlash - the little marquis alienated him, and for Su Tiecheng, this is the most fatal trouble.

He hadn't been able to set foot in the Baohou Mansion for more than half a month. The last time I passed, I was sent away with just a few words. What's the use of having an empty name as a manager? People can bring him up with a word, and they can replace him with a word. LI Rong,PENG Liang,ZHANG Xiuan...... There will never be a shortage of useful manpower around the little marquis, and there will never be a shortage of ambitious people who are staring at the position of the three chiefs and want to replace themselves.

The career is not smooth, and he has also encountered setbacks in his personal art industry, and the resources and wealth that he originally wanted to use to break through the realm were used to send favors and pay compensation. And the chance that might have been bumped into in the autumn hunt was also mixed up by the third child of the Huang family - if it weren't for him, how could the little marquis specially break himself away and not even give him the opportunity to line up in the spiritual land?

- All this is because of that Huang Laosan! He is his own nemesis! He is the devil who came down from heaven to restrain himself!

Staring at the half-dead golden cinnamon in the courtyard, the anger in Su Tiecheng's heart rolled like lava. Immortal cultivators attach great importance to luck, and often say that there are four things to cultivate immortals: wealth and law. But those who really embark on this path know that the most important thing in cultivating immortals is luck. When luck came, everything went well. If you have no luck, you can stuff your teeth by drinking cold water.

Think about how many stumbling blocks and roadblocks he has kicked along the way to have today's status. However, this time, he clearly saw that with the strong rise of the Huang family, he had become the stone that stood in the way.

What's even more depressing is that the other party doesn't seem to have much effort to kick him away - from the incident to the end, the Huang family probably doesn't know who they are facing. Everything was dealt with quietly and lightly by the third child of the Huang family.

After the two parties accepted the mediation and boycott, Huang Laosan did let go according to the agreement, and never acted against himself again. The dangers of these troubles encountered by oneself and the risk that the achievements of decades of struggle will soon come to naught, and even others cannot be blamed at all.

The whole world seems to revolve around each other, and good things will always fall on each other's heads, and those who oppose it, such as themselves, will be unlucky for some reason.

I had this kind of highlight moment back then, but now, in front of the luckier, it looks like it's about to become a stepping stone.

β€”β€”The so-called "Heaven and earth are all working together, and heroes are not free", as the saying goes!

Su Tiecheng has been distressed, angry, and scheming about this for the past few days, until this moment, he heard the news from his subordinates......

"The Huang family has Kunlun Xiantao?...... Heh, hehehe...... Providence?...... Providence!"

Suddenly, hearing such a penetrating laugh from the Lord, the subordinate who was reporting to him on the recent events in the city couldn't help but raise his head and look at his master quite nervously. However, Su San's manager didn't make any special moves, he still patiently listened to the report of his subordinates, and as usual, generously rewarded him with a spirit stone.

Only when his subordinates retired, did he say:

"Go and invite Master Liu, I have some things for him to do. ”

While his subordinates agreed, Su Tiecheng glanced at the courtyard again:

"Besides, go find a gardener and cut down this osmanthus tree. ”

Since it doesn't want to bloom, it never blooms. ”
