Following Liu Tao's order, the servant behind him naturally rushed towards Xie Yun'er and the three girls without any ambiguity.
But the next moment, the entire Xianglai Station was filled with screams.
The two servants flew backwards. One of them hit the ground hard, while the other knocked over the table and fell on his back, clutching his chest and vomiting blood.
The remaining servants froze on the spot, their faces pale.
Liu Tao and Wang Li were even more stunned.
Under everyone's shocked gaze, two strong men appeared in front of the three women.
It was these two people who took action just now and beat away Liu Tao's servant, and they were extremely vicious, aiming to kill people.
The guards who followed the three women into the city were all guards from the Tianji Camp in disguise.
Under Qin Feng's careful craftsmanship, the guards of Tianji Camp have already become pure killers. If they don't take action, they will see blood.
At the same time, the other Tianji Camp guards also walked downstairs one after another.
In the blink of an eye, Xie Yun'er and the three girls were surrounded by ten burly men. The momentum displayed by just throwing the pestle was intimidating.
The people outside the door recovered from their shock, and a heated discussion broke out in an instant.
"What am I talking about? These three women, you can tell at a glance that they have extraordinary origins!"
"No wonder he is so calm and composed when facing Liu Tao and Wang Li. It turns out there are so many guards around him."
"This is not an ordinary wealthy family, at least it is the daughter of a minister! Look at these guards, they are all tall and powerful."
"More than just tough? Didn't you see them take action? With just one blow, they almost killed the two servants."
"Yes, these guards are not only Lianjiazi, but they must also be elite soldiers. They rush to kill the opponent when they take action."
"Just having these guards is enough to prove the background of these three ladies."
Hearing the sound outside the door, Liu Tao's face was uncertain. Even he did not expect that there were so many guards around the three women in front of him.
It is certain that the three women must have a court background.
However, considering that his family was supporting a concubine, Liu Tao's panic instantly calmed down.
His eyes turned disdainful again.
"Haha, no wonder you dare to be so arrogant, it turns out you are the daughter of an official residence."
"I don't believe that the daughter of a second-grade official or above would come to Caoyun County quietly."
"If you are really the young lady of a feudal official's family, I'm afraid there would have been a big fuss before you came, and the county magistrate would have personally gone out of the city to greet you."
"In my opinion, you are just the children of ordinary Beijing officials at best."
Hearing Liu Tao's insights, Wang Li on the side breathed a sigh of relief.
If you are just a daughter of an ordinary official residence, there is nothing to be afraid of. As the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot suppress a local snake, unless those ministers who are truly powerful want to come to Caoyun County to run wild, unless they have enough of this official position.
Liu Tao became more serious and sarcastic: "It seems that you don't know the status of Caoyun County in Daliang."
“All the emperors of the past dynasties have visited Caoyun County in person.”
"Even His Majesty, the present His Majesty, stopped in Caoyun County on his first trip after taking the throne, all the way south."
"Not to mention ordinary Beijing officials, even those important officials in the court who truly cover the sky with one hand will not easily interfere in Caoyun County!"
"If you obey obediently, I will spare you the injustice. Since I am shameless, don't blame me for being rude."
"Come here, go to the county government to transfer someone!"
Liu Tao's eyes were full of contempt. Even though the guards beside the three women were extremely tough, there were only ten of them. As long as they transferred people from the county government, they could be easily destroyed even by sheer numerical advantage.
To be on the safe side, Liu Tao also waved his hand to signal his servants to seal off the entire Xianglai Station to prevent the other party from escaping.
The people watching on the scene all gasped.
"It's bad, these three ladies are in big trouble."
"Liu Tao transferred people from the Yamen. I'm afraid the Xianglai Inn will be stained with blood today."
"Hey! I've known for a long time that no matter how well-established these three young ladies are, they have to keep a low profile when they arrive in Caoyun County."
"Who says it's not the case? If they politely explain it to Liu Tao, Liu Tao might give them some face."
"The result is that we have to fight. As an outsider, I have to go head-to-head with one of the most powerful gentry in Caoyun County. Isn't this like getting kicked in the head by a donkey?"
"In the final analysis, these wealthy ladies from Kyoto are used to being arrogant and have no idea of the dangers of the world."
Not long after, the Yamen officials, together with the Yamen soldiers, gathered nearly a hundred people and immediately surrounded the three and outer three floors of Xianglai Station.
Liu Tao was originally very arrogant, but when he saw so many people coming, he became even more arrogant.
He held his head high and laughed loudly: "Hahaha, in Caoyun County, we are the undoubted masters here!"
"I don't care what status you have in Kyoto. If you dare to act recklessly in Caoyun County, you will die!"
"Don't worry, I like your stubborn temper the most. I have plenty of time and I will slowly condition you, haha."
Just when everyone thought that the three women in front of them had no chance of saving their lives, a burst of shouting suddenly came.
"Liu Tao, you're fucking crazy!"
Everyone at the scene looked over and saw the crowd being forcibly pushed away.
Gao Cheng, another noble son of Caoyun County, hurried over with his servants.
Liu Tao was furious when he saw Gao Cheng. If this bastard hadn't done bad things many times over the years, how could he have missed so many beauties?
He spent a lot of effort today and would never allow Gao Cheng to ruin his good deeds again!
Seeing the angry Gao Cheng, Liu Tao took the lead in attacking without waiting for him to speak.
"Gao, what are you doing here?"
"Hmph, don't think I don't know what kind of medicine you, bastard, are selling in the gourd."
"The beauties that were taken away from me in the past were all released by you afterwards, right?"
"If you are just greedy for beauty, that's fine. After all, we are the same kind of people. But if you want to be a good person, then I won't agree to it!"
"These three women are all mine. If you want to rob them, be prepared to face the wrath of my entire Liu family."
Facing Liu Tao's angry shouting, Gao Cheng's expression turned even colder.
He gritted his teeth and said word by word: "Bastard!"
"Do you know who these three women sitting in front of you are?"
"If you touch a hair of theirs, not only your Liu family, but the entire Caoyun County will be buried with you!"
As soon as these words came out, the scene fell silent instantly.
Everyone looked surprised. After all, Gao Cheng was one of the most powerful children in Caoyun County. Even he said so...
