Chapter 201

The Tian Clan siblings slowly paced under the privet tree. Tian Miaowen asked, "Are we still not going to make an appearance?"

Tian Binfei smiled, "What's the hurry? Our capital is limited, so … we must have absolute confidence before we can place our bets. For now, we need to observe more and move less!"

Tian Miaowen lightly sighed, "Tong Ren is already in such a state, but we, the Tian family, still have not taken any action. What can we expect others to do?"

Tian Binfei stopped in his tracks and slowly turned around. He looked at Tian Miaowen with a piercing gaze, "Why should I care about what others think? Some people only know how to point fingers and spout nonsense. There's no need to take them to heart!

If you are swayed by their views, when you fail, they will just change their words and continue to show how brilliant they are and how stupid you are. At that time, we will use our own actions to prove to others that we are indeed stupid!

When Gou Jian endured hardship and flattered his husband, the number of people who misunderstood him and looked down on him was much more than us. If Gou Jian was eager to prove himself to those who ridiculed and looked down on him, would he still have the success he had in the future? "

Tian Binfei lightly sighed and raised his hand to pat Tian Miaowen's shoulder, "Tolerance is a knife. First, you hurt yourself, then you hurt others. If you can't endure it, you will lose!"

Tian Miaowen slightly leaned to the side and cleverly avoided his hand. She did not know when it started, or maybe it was when she discovered that her brother seemed to have an unusual feeling for her, but she started to resist even normal physical contact from him.

Tian Binfei's gaze was slightly disappointed, but he immediately smiled lightly and regained his elegance, "Unfortunately, the conflict between Yang Yinglong and the Song family started at a bad time. He can't pull himself out now. Otherwise, he could directly intervene in the chaos in Tong Ren. This would be the best opportunity for him to control Tong Ren. That would also be the best opportunity for us."

Tian Miaowen's slender and long eyebrows that seemed to naturally have a delicate and pitiful feeling frowned, "Without Yang Yinglong's help, Yu Junting actually succeeded. This is really surprising!"

Tian Binfei said, "She can convince the barbaric and ignorant Sheng Miao and the stubborn Liang Yue Valley. No one would have thought that she would suddenly appear and cause Zhang Yutong's defeat. This is expected."

Tian Miaowen glanced at him and said, "Don't you remember that Grandpa An once told us not to interfere with Sheng Miao coming out of the mountains?"

Tian Binfei said, "I've already thought of it. Could it be … it's for today? Could it be that the seedlings are already in the hands of Old Master An?

Tian Miaowen suddenly said, "How much do you know about the new sect master of the Gu God Sect?"

Tian Binfei smiled bitterly and said, "The Sheng Miao has been living in seclusion deep in the mountains for thousands of years. They don't involve themselves in affairs and are meaningless to us. So, I have always neglected them!"

Tian Miaowen said, "In other words, we don't know what kind of person the new leader of the Gu God Sect is?"

Sheng Miao came out of the mountains after this new leader succeeded the position. The emergence of seedlings began after the new Sect Master succeeded the throne. What is his plan? Is he a puppet supported by Grandpa An? Was he a puppet supported by Grandpa An? Tian Miaowen said, "I will go and find out about this leader!"

Tian Binfei knew that his little sister was looking for an excuse to leave him again. He smiled helplessly and said, "Okay!

Tian Binfei knew that his little sister was trying to find an excuse to leave him, so he helplessly smiled. "Alright! You go and investigate the Gu God Sect. Be careful, they …. have many strange abilities. " Be careful when you go to investigate the Gu God Sect. They … have many strange abilities. "

A very strange and charming smile slowly appeared on Tian Miaowen's face. She had a sharp chin, willowy eyebrows, and big eyes. Her charm naturally had a kind of alluring femininity, so it wasn't strange to have a charming smile. What was strange was that indescribably strange look in her eyes.

A strange and charming smile appeared on Tian Miaowen's face. She had a sharp chin, willowy eyebrows, and big eyes. She was born with a seductive femininity, so her smile was not strange. What was strange was her strange gaze.

Tian Binfei's heart suddenly skipped a beat. He felt that his sister's words seemed to have a hidden meaning. What did she mean? What did she discover? However, he could not see anything from Tian Miaowen's face because she had already turned around and left. That graceful figure and gait, walking under the tree, was a scenery, walking in the wind, was a part of the wind …

That beautiful figure immediately lost his heart, his eyes, and he could not think of anything else.

… …

Ye Xiaotian accompanied the Yu Family and busied himself for the entire day. In the evening, he finished arranging the defense of the entire city and returned to his mansion. He had just dismounted from his horse and had not even entered the mansion when a black shadow leaped out from under the screen wall and pounced towards Ye Xiaotian.

This mansion was under the control of Ye Xiaotian's people. It was impossible for an outsider to sneak in. Ye Xiaotian only thought that Fuwa was going to give him another "head-on bow". He immediately leaned to the side and made a sword sign with his right hand. He shouted, "Du! Stop, squat down! "

The black shadow was stunned. He stopped in front of him and asked foolishly, "Why do I have to squat down?"

When Ye Xiaotian heard him speak and saw that his height was not right, he took a closer look and cried out, "Xun Tian? Why is it you? Didn't you go with Daheng to buy farming tools and grain seeds? "

Su Xuntian choked and said, "Yes! Didn't I come back early? In the end, the Zhang family caused trouble and Tongren was in chaos. I hid here and there, worried, I didn't know the taste of food and couldn't sleep at night … "

Ye Xiaotian held back his laughter and said, "Alright, alright. Aren't you fine now? When did you come back? Where's Daheng? "

Su Xuntian accompanied him to the mansion and said, "Young Master Daheng was a little slow with the goods and hasn't come back yet. I guess he heard about the chaos in Tongren halfway and stopped to observe. I came back three days ago and only found out about the incident when I entered the city. Fortunately, I knew about it early. If I came back to the mansion, I'm afraid I'd fall into the eyes of the Zhang family … "

Su Xuntian nagged him about how he had been wandering around and how hard he had worked these few days. Ye Xiaotian couldn't help but laugh and said, "Now that the County Supervisor Yu has become the head of Tongren, there will definitely be a new generation of officials. When the time comes, I'll help you get a suitable position to compensate for your hard work."

Su Xuntian was overjoyed and quickly said, "How about the Tax Ambassador? I'm still very good at accounting. "

Ye Xiaotian rolled his eyes at him and said, "You want to profit at the expense of the public? Aren't you afraid that I'll put righteousness before family? No way! What you said reminded me that I need to find you a job that doesn't involve money. "

Upon hearing this, Su Xuntian's face became sullen again, "Daren, look at me, I've worked hard and dutifully …"

Ye Xiaotian ignored him and called a guard over and asked, "Where's Mr Li?"

The guard replied, "Mr Li is arranging food and accommodation for the troops and has not returned yet."

Ye Xiaotian said, "Good! After Mr Li returns, invite him to see me! "

Ye Xiaotian swaggered off and Su Xuntian shouted from behind, "Daren, Xuntian has worked hard for you even if he doesn't have any merits. If the Tax Ambassador is in a difficult position, a tax collector is also fine! How about I'm only responsible for the taxes of Taiping, Qingping and Qinglang Streets? Otherwise, I'm only responsible for the taxes of Zhongmen Pier! Daren … "

… …

The next morning, after eating breakfast, Ye Xiaotian met with Gedore, Ge Long, Li Qiuchi, Su Xuntian and the others and made simple arrangements for the matters at hand. After assigning the specific details, he got up and went to the Yu Residence.

Two quarters in the afternoon was the deadline given by Yu Junting to Zhang Yutong. Whether it was a peaceful solution or a real fire burning down the prefectural yamen, the series of follow-up reactions would be different. Although Ye Xiaotian did not reveal his true identity and currently announced that County Supervisor Yu had the support of Gedore and Cooling Moon Valley, he could not really stay out of this matter.

When Ye Xiaotian arrived at the Yu Residence, he saw a few carriages parked in front of the gate and a few people holding visiting cards waiting in front of the residence. He couldn't help but smile. These must be the Tongren officials who see where the wind blows, urgently seeking an audience with the Yu Family.

Although many people in the Yu Family did not know how much help Ye Xiaotian had given to their Chieftain, they knew that Ye Xiaotian had always been on their Chieftain's side and was one of them. Therefore, as soon as they saw him arrive, they immediately invited him into the mansion.

Under the envious gazes of the officials who were waiting to pay their respects, Ye Xiaotian entered the Yu Residence. The steward bowed and said: "Master Ye Xiaotian, please take a seat in the small study room. Our Chieftain is receiving a guest."

The steward led Ye Xiaotian into the third courtyard and directly into the small study room. This was a courtesy that ordinary visitors would not receive. Ordinary guests had to be received in the front courtyard. Those of high status had to be received in the second courtyard's living room. To be led to the small study room in the third courtyard meant that he was completely treated as one of them.

Ye Xiaotian sat down in the study room and a young maid immediately served him tea. Ye Xiaotian saw the steward and the young maid standing respectfully at the side and couldn't help but smile: "You guys do what you need to do. I don't need to wait on you. I just want to let the County Supervisor know that I will be waiting for her here!"

The little steward hurriedly agreed and led the little servant girl out, bowing and bowing. Today was really too busy in the residence. On one hand, the Yu Residence was searched and controlled by the Zhang family two days ago. It was very chaotic and needed to be rearranged and tidied up. On the other hand, there were many guests today and he really did not have the time to stay here.

Ye Xiaotian drank a few mouthfuls of tea and stood up with his hands behind his back to admire the calligraphy, paintings, antiques and orchids in Yu Junting's study room. Although the design of Yu Junting's study room had the charm of a scholar, it was definitely not feminine at all. It was roughly the same as the study rooms of some male officials.

Ye Xiaotian had never understood calligraphy and paintings and antiques. He casually browsed through them. His eyes swept around and suddenly saw the wall beside the antique shelf. He couldn't help but be slightly startled. Looking at the decorative patterns on the wall and the antique shelf, Ye Xiaotian suddenly remembered what Yu Junting said to him that day when he was hiding in the secret underground passage under the County Supervisor's detention room:

"Here, do you see this pattern? At first glance, it looks the same as other places, but in fact, it is different from the patterns in other places. Although I have set up secret passages in many places, I have not actually walked through them all. I only know the general location of the passages. If I really need it, how can I find it? I have to rely on this secret record. "

Ye Xiaotian was feeling bored and suddenly became interested. There was a secret door here, but where did it lead to? Did it lead to the outside of the residence or to the boudoir of the County Supervisor? Ye Xiaotian curiously stretched out his hand and imitated what Yu Junting did that day. He twisted and pressed on the strange pattern and a secret door opened silently …
