Volume 3 Meteor, Butterfly, Sword Chapter 82: Garden Manager

Chrysanthemum garden.
Su Weiyun walked all the way from the chrysanthemum garden to the study.
As he walked along, people greeted him.
"Hello, Lord Steward."
"Good morning, Lord Steward."
This was the first time that Su Weiyun experienced the vanity that power brings to people.
The old man has given the order that from now on he will be the garden manager.
The old man's men also learned things very quickly. No matter what they did , they were always very efficient.
study.
The study is a forbidden area for the old man.
The old man never let anyone in easily. He sent someone to invite Su Weiyun, which meant that he trusted Su Weiyun.
Don’t employ people you doubt, and don’t doubt people you employ.
The old man always does things so decisively.
Su Weiyun knocked on the door and entered.
There were two people in the study , one was an old man, and the other was the purple-clad man in charge to whom Su Weiyun had delivered the head and wedding wine yesterday.
The purple-clothed man had a unhappy expression, as if he was a child who had made a mistake and was about to be punished.
The old man saw Su Weiyun coming in and said with a smile: "I have already drunk the wedding wine. Next time you see Wu Laodao, please say thank you for me."
Su Weiyun said: "Okay."
The old man added: "I will keep my promise. From now on, you will be the garden manager."
Su Weiyun said: "Okay."
The old man said, "This is your colleague and my right-hand man. You can get to know him. His name is Ritsu Xiangchuan."
Ritsu Kagawa.
Su Weiyun immediately remembered what Boss Gao said to him before he left: "After you leave, remember to find a man named Lu Xiangchuan. He will be responsible for arranging your next actions."
The meaning of these words is probably: Ritsu Xiangchuan also wants to kill the old man, and he is your accomplice!
But Su Weiyun remained calm and said only one word: "Okay."
Lu Xiangchuan gave Su Weiyun a friendly smile as a greeting, but nothing else happened.
It seemed that he had never known about Su Weiyun before.
But since he was the one arranging the operation, how could he not know Su Weiyun?
Just by looking at this disguise and forbearance, Su Weiyun could tell that Lu Xiangchuan was indeed not an easy-to-get-along character.
——He is regarded as the old man’s right-hand man, so of course his martial arts skills are very good.
——There is no one else in the study room now, only the old man, Lu Xiangchuan and Su Weiyun himself.
——If they attack at this time, two against one, and it’s a sudden sneak attack, can the old man really defend himself?
Su Weiyun secretly gripped the hilt of the sword, he was already wanting to take action immediately!
Opportunities are rare and can never come back! When dealing with people like the old man, you can’t miss the opportunity!
Su Weiyun winked at Lu Xiangchuan.
Ritsu Xiangchuan lowered his head.
The old man looked at him with his head bowed and said, "Even if you underestimated King Wan Peng and failed to see his arrogant tactics, you don't have to blame yourself so much."
It was Lu Xiangchuan who went to deal with the matter concerning Wu Laodao and Wan Pengwang, and Su Weiyun came to his rescue in the end.
While the old man was speaking, Su Weiyun slowly put down his hand.
He suddenly remembered the word "patience" again.
He didn't even know the old man's martial arts skills, the deployment of guards in the garden, or the weapons and mechanisms in the study. Why should he act rashly?
After the old man finished speaking, Ritsu Kagawa responded softly: "Oh, thank you for forgiving me, old man."
The old man laughed, Lu Xiangchuan also laughed, and Su Weiyun naturally laughed too.
The atmosphere in the study seemed relaxed, joyful, and fair in rewards and punishments; but in fact, it was secretly experiencing a struggle between heaven and man, and a bloody storm.
After the old man comforted Lu Xiangchuan, he let him leave, then turned and looked at Su Weiyun.
"Do you know why I made you the garden manager?"
Su Weiyun asked, "What does a garden manager need to do? Plant flowers and cut grass? Introduce flowers?"
The old man asked back: "What do you think this place looks like?"
Su Weiyun said without disguising: "The emperor's study."
The old man said calmly: "So the garden is the palace, and those guards are the imperial guards!"
Su Weiyun said slowly: "So I am in charge of the military power and command the imperial guards?"
The old man said: “You can say that.”
Su Weiyun took a breath of cold air. He did not expect that the old man would grant him such great power!
Su Weiyun couldn't understand why the old man could trust him so much?
The old man was calm and composed, his eyes were clear, he stood up, patted Su Weiyun's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Let's go, I'll take you to see the palace that you will rule next."
So the old man took Su Weiyun out.
The two of them walked into the chrysanthemum garden again.
It was autumn, the wind was brisk, the chrysanthemums were in full bloom, and the whole city was covered in gold.
The old man suddenly made a strange gesture and asked, "Where is the Eagle Group?"
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…
Suddenly, dozens of people emerged from at least five hidden places in the chrysanthemum garden. Each of them was young, strong and agile.
People kept popping up from the flowers, from behind the walls, like bamboo shoots after rain.
Su Weiyun gradually broke out in a cold sweat, and he realized that he seemed to have very little understanding of the old man's power.
The old man smiled and said to everyone: "From now on, this Master Su Weiyun will be your new leader, responsible for the safety of the garden. Do you understand?"
"yes!"
No one in the Eagle Group raised any objections.
The old man turned around to look at Su Weiyun, and seeing that he looked different, he asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Su Weiyun did not make any excuses. Instead, he soared into the sky, shouted loudly, and drew out his sword with a "clang" sound.
“Who is it?!”
A figure flew up from the corner like a frightened bird and soared into the air.
Instead of retreating, he advanced, drew his sword, and rushed towards the old man!
"Sun Yubo, prepare to die!"
He was already very close to the old man, and at this moment, he thrust out his sword, like a meteor streaking through the night sky, incredibly fast, and reached the old man in an instant.
The assassin turned out to be the killer from Happy Forest, the jealous Xiao He!
He actually came to perform the same mission - to assassinate the old man!
Su Weiyun was shocked, and he was struggling: Should he swing his sword in the opposite direction and attack the old man together with Xiao He?
But in fact, the old man didn't give him too much time to worry about it.
The old man only took action at the last moment when Xiao He's sword was in front of him.
He simply stretched out two fingers and lightly pointed forward like a dragonfly touching the water.
Then he withdrew his hand.
Then Xiao He also fell to the ground.
The sword fell aside with a crisp sound.
The Eagle Team members only reacted at this moment and immediately surrounded Xiao He.
Su Weiyun could guarantee that, apart from him, no one else present could see clearly what the old man was doing.
His shots were so fast and so accurate!
Su Weiyun then began to feel lucky that he had not actually attacked the old man just now.
The old man asked Xiao He coldly: "Who are you?"
Xiao He said: "My last name is He."
The old man asked, "Where are you from?"
Xiao He said: "My last name is He."
The old man snorted coldly and asked, "Who ordered you to do this? Do you have any accomplices?"
This time, Xiao He actually showed some expression on his face. He pointed at Su Weiyun and said, "He. He was my accomplice!"
Everyone looked at Su Weiyun.
Su Weiyun was not in a hurry. He just smiled and said, "You said I was your accomplice, but I have never even seen you. If you want to slander me, then shouldn't I also say that Lu Xiangchuan is my accomplice?"
Xiao He gritted his teeth and said, "If I hadn't seen him next to you, how would I have dared to take action?"
Su Weiyun sneered: "Don't forget, I scared you out of here!"
Xiao He Qiang retorted: "What you said is exactly the code we agreed on, have you forgotten?"
Su Weiyun said: "That's not the case!"
Xiao He wanted to throw dirty water again, but the old man became impatient.
"I'm handing him over to you. Please make sure you get some information from him!"
The old man turned and left.
Everyone in the Eagle Group gathered around Su Weiyun and listened to his orders.
In the end, the old man handed Xiao He over to Su Weiyun for disposal.
This arrangement couldn't be better.
