Chapter 84 The future is long
Liang Jin knew that Zhao Bao was hurt yesterday.

He originally thought that Zhao Bao might not show up in the next few days.

But I didn't expect that he would come here so early in the morning.

"Brother Jin, I'm sorry. I was just talking nonsense yesterday."

"If Xiaolian comes over next time, please apologize to her for me."

"My words scared her, and I always treated her as my own sister."

Zhao Bao said to Liang Jin.

Liang Jin looked at Zhao Bao and did not answer.

He was not sure whether what Zhao Bao said at this time was true.

Perhaps these words were just insincere words spoken by Zhao Bao in order to save the relationship between the three of them.

Zhao Bao changed the subject:

"Brother Jin, I have good news for you. I'm leaving Zongwu Mansion soon."

"It's basically been decided. I will be transferred to Chengqian Palace to serve Concubine Han."

"Last night, a young eunuch in Chengqian Palace died of a sudden illness, leaving a vacant position. I just happened to meet the criteria for leaving Zongwu Mansion, so the higher-ups asked me to fill the position."

"Noble Concubine Han is favored by His Majesty. I am fortunate to serve her. This is a very good opportunity for me."

"I have finally made it out of this sea of ​​suffering, and I will definitely seize this opportunity."

When Liang Jin heard this, his heart moved.

Concubine Han?
Isn’t that the daughter of Han Guozhang, the backer of the Qingzhou Yang family?

He didn't expect that Zhao Bao would actually go to serve Concubine Han.

But this is naturally good for Zhao Bao.

The treatment of eunuchs with masters and those without masters in the palace is very different.

Especially since he is with a favored concubine, the benefits are naturally self-evident.

Liang Jin then congratulated:
"Congratulations! Being by the Imperial Concubine's side is an opportunity many people would never ask for."

“Although this can help you avoid a lot of suffering, you must also be careful with your words and actions.”

Zhao Bao nodded:
"Don't worry, Brother Jin, I know all this."

"I'm afraid I won't have the chance to visit you in the near future. Please take care of yourself, Brother Jin."

"If one day I can... Never mind, I won't say these big words anymore."

When he said the last sentence, Zhao Bao also laughed at himself.

Liang Jin also smiled and patted Zhao Bao on the shoulder.

Zhao Bao said goodbye to Liang Jin:
"Brother Jin, I'm going back."

"Please remember to apologize to Xiaolian and explain on my behalf."

Liang Jin guarantees:

"rest assured."

Zhao Bao nodded, turned around and prepared to leave.

He took two steps and suddenly stopped.

He looked at Liang Jin, wanting to say something but stopping himself several times.

Finally, he said only one sentence:
"Brother Jin, you and Xiaolian will always be my Zhao Bao's relatives."

After saying this, he left completely.

Liang Jin looked at his back and sighed.

The three of them may have had some minor problems yesterday.

But just based on Zhao Bao's last words, Liang Jin knew that the relationship between the three of them would always be the most worth cherishing.

……

the other side.

Zhao Bao hurried back to Zongwu Mansion.

As soon as I entered the gate, I suddenly heard a sinister voice:
"Zhao Bao."

Zhao Bao trembled when he heard this and turned around hurriedly.

I saw a fat old eunuch with a big belly standing not far away.

It’s Li Dafu!
Zhao Bao's heart skipped a beat.

The person he least wanted to see finally showed up.

Although he knew that Li Dafu had always wanted to kill him, Zhao Bao still put on a flattering smile and quickly stepped forward to salute:

"Godfather!"

Li Dafu suddenly stretched out his hand and pressed it on Zhao Bao's head.

This moment.

Zhao Bao felt his hair stand on end.

If Li Dafu wanted to kill him now, he would have no power to resist.

"Zhao Bao, I heard that you are going to serve Concubine Han?"

Li Dafu asked with a smile.

Zhao Bao quickly replied:

"It's all thanks to my godfather."

Li Dafu waved his hand and said with a smile:

"This has nothing to do with our family. If the Taoist leader hadn't come to congratulate me, our family wouldn't even know about this."

"Zhao Bao, you've made our family suffer by hiding this."

Zhao Bao felt a panic in his heart.

I originally thought that this matter could be accomplished smoothly without going through Li Dafu.

But unexpectedly, Li Dafu found out in the end.

He could only answer:

"Godfather, I dare not hide this from you."

"Honestly, this matter hasn't been finalized yet, so my son plans to tell his godfather after it's confirmed, and at the same time repay his godfather for his kindness in raising him."

Speaking of this, Zhao Bao had a flattering smile on his face.

But Zhao Bao's heart was cold.

He always kept Li Dafu in mind.

Sooner or later, he will definitely "repay" Li Dafu.

Zhao Bao has always believed in the principle of revenge.

"what?"

Li Dafu took back his hand from Zhao Bao's head and rubbed his fingertips:
"Zhao Bao, it's so cold, why are you sweating so much?"

Zhao Bao smiled awkwardly.

Li Dafu said with little interest:

"Zhao Bao, you are still too young. You have trained in Zongwu Mansion for too short a time and don't quite understand the rules of this palace."

"If Godfather lets you serve Concubine Han like this, it will only harm you."

"So, godfather plans to keep you in Zongwu Mansion for a while longer, train you well, and find a better way out for you in the future." "As for Concubine Han, you have a brother who is also leaving Zongwu Mansion and can take your place."

"You don't have to worry about it."

Li Dafu's words seemed to be for Zhao Bao's benefit.

But Zhao Bao knew very well that Li Dafu wanted to keep him and continue to kill him.

They even want to deprive him of the opportunity to rise to prominence!

At this moment, Zhao Bao hated Li Dafu so much that he wanted to eat his flesh and sleep on his skin.

But Zhao Bao still flattered:

"Godfather, please stop joking with your son."

"My son really wants to serve Concubine Han, so please don't try to persuade me."

Li Dafu's expression suddenly changed.

His smile quickly disappeared and turned gloomy.

At the same time, his aura became gloomy and cold, and an invisible pressure enveloped Zhao Bao tightly.

Li Dafu snorted coldly:
"I'm not trying to persuade you, I'm just telling you."

"At least our family has a say in personnel changes within the Zongwu Mansion."

Zhao Bao didn't expect Li Dafu to turn against him like this.

He gritted his teeth and straightened up:

"Godfather, my son has made up his mind."

"Please help me, godfather!"

Li Dafu stared at Zhao Bao for a while like a poisonous snake.

Obviously Zhao Bao's determination successfully aroused his anger.

Suddenly, he chuckled coldly:

"Okay, Zhao Bao, you think you've grown wings."

"Looks like Godfather has to teach you some family rules to teach you a lesson."

As he spoke, a ball of cold and gloomy energy gathered in Li Dafu's palm.

He has decided to get rid of Zhao Bao!
A useless person is naturally not qualified to serve Concubine Han.

Zhao Bao also felt the danger in an instant.

His eyes twitched wildly and he was about to turn around and run away.

Sudden--

"Cough, cough, cough..."

There was a cough.

Li Dafu and Zhao Bao raised their eyebrows at the same time and looked in the direction where the coughing sound came from.

I saw a skinny old eunuch with gray hair walking slowly towards me.

It was Cao Xian.

Cao Xian walked over and waved towards Zhao Bao:
"Zhao Bao, come here."

"Master Chief Dao is still waiting for you to go through the formalities for transfer to Chengqian Palace. What are you still doing here?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Bao hurriedly turned around and wanted to leave.

Li Dafu was unwilling to miss this opportunity.

If Zhao Bao really went to Chengqian Palace to serve Concubine Han, he would have no chance to kill Zhao Bao in the future.

Immediately, Li Dafu finally decided to take action.

He stretched out his big hand and slapped Zhao Bao's waist fiercely.

This blow would surely break Zhao Bao's lumbar vertebrae and completely paralyze his lower body!

"call!"

Before Zhao Bao could react, Cao Xian's figure had already appeared beside him.

Cao Xian raised his hand and faced Li Dafu's palm.

"Bang!!!"

With a muffled sound, a strong air wave surged out from the palms of the two men and swept wildly around.

Cao Xian and Li Dafu both took two steps back at the same time.

This time the contest was evenly matched!

Cao Xian coughed twice and said lightly:
"Master Li, you're not afraid of being laughed at for attacking a junior from behind."

Li Dafu's eyes were stern, and he said sharply:
"Cao Xian! What does this have to do with you?"

"Could it be that you want to go against our family?"

At this moment, Zhao Baocai suddenly realized that he was almost in danger.

Frightened, he quickly retreated behind Cao Xian, gritted his teeth, and silently kept Li Dafu's debt in mind.

I only heard Cao Xian chuckle and say:

"I'm already seventy-eight years old and riddled with illnesses. I don't have more than two years left to live. And you, Mr. Li, are only sixty-one, an age with a bright future ahead of you."

"If Chief Li were to fight an old man like me, it wouldn't be worth it if something bad happened."

"Besides, I have just reported Zhao Bao's matter to the chief steward. The transfer order was personally signed by the clan leader."

"Does Chief Li need to review this? Or do we need to ask the chief steward for personal confirmation?"

As Cao Xian spoke, he took out a transfer order from his sleeve.

Li Dafu did not reach out to take it.

He did not doubt the authenticity of the transfer order, and no one in the Zongwu Mansion dared to impersonate the general manager to issue the transfer order.

Cao Xian then rescinded the transfer order:

"It all depends on what Director Li decides now."

Having said that, Cao Xian turned around and left with Zhao Bao.

After hearing the last part, Li Dafu narrowed his eyes dangerously and stared at the backs of the two people as they left.

He was hesitating.

Hesitate whether to take action!
Zhao Bao is protected by Cao Xian, so he may find it difficult to eliminate him today.

Especially if Cao Xian really made a big deal out of this matter and reported it to the general manager, it would be difficult for Li Dafu to explain himself.

After all, Cao Xian was transferred to Zongwu Mansion through the general manager, and the two have a close relationship.

The steward is the head of Zongwu Mansion, and Li Dafu himself has no way to question his decision.

No matter how you look at it, it is not worth it to offend the general manager for Zhao Bao, whose life is as worthless as a dog.

Li Dafu hesitated again and again, and finally put his hand behind his back.

He stared sinisterly at the direction the two men left, with a sinister look in his eyes:

"Okay, we'll let you go today."

"But there's still a long way to go, so we can have some fun later."

"Zhao Bao, don't think you can escape our clutches just by hiding in Chengqian Palace!"
