The car drove all the way to the Zhao Family's gate.

Xu Taiping got out of the car and walked into the Zhao Family.

As soon as he entered the Zhao Family residence, Xu Taiping saw Zhao Buqian walking past him in a hurry.

"Old Zhao!" Xu Taiping shouted.

Zhao Biqian stopped in his tracks and looked at Xu Taiping, asking in surprise, "Patriarch, when did you come back?"

"Just came back." Xu Taiping walked up to Zhao Buqian and said, "In the future, when no one else is around, you can just call me Taiping, and don't use the honorific title. Our relationship is just right there, how can I afford to be called you?"

Zhao Bi Gan rolled his eyes at Xu Taiping, then said, "You've already become the head of the Zhao Family, yet you're still trying to make fun of me …"

"Now that you've let your daughter follow me, do you think you can?" Xu Taiping asked.

"I don't care about her. Do what you want. Right, it's peaceful. I still have something to take care of." Zhao Buqian said.

"What is it?" Xu Taiping asked.

"A few Zhao Family members were sneaking around the treasury and were caught by the Iron-Blood Army. I intend to go take a look." Zhao Buqian said.

"Sneaking around?" Xu Taiping raised an eyebrow, "Let's go take a look."

"En!"

Xu Taiping and Zhao Buqian walked towards the treasury.

Ten minutes later, the two of them arrived at the entrance of the treasury.

At this time, around the entrance of the treasury, there were hundreds of people.

These hundreds of people were basically members of the Iron Blood Army, and some were bodyguards of the Zhao Family. Of course, these bodyguards had all turned into treasured warriors.

Three men around the age of twenty to thirty squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands.

"You go first, I'll go over later. I'll see what's going on." Xu Taiping said.

"En!" Zhao Buqian nodded, then walked up to the three men on the ground and asked, "What's going on with you guys?"

"Butler, we're just walking around here. We haven't done anything!" answered one of the three.

"What's your name?" Zhao Buqian asked.

"I... My name is Zhao Rong. " The other party replied.

"Are you really just strolling around here?" Zhao Buqian asked.

"That's right, I was just strolling around!" Zhao Rong said.

"Butler, these are the things found on their bodies!" A member of the Iron Blood Army walked up to Zhao Biqian and handed him a piece of paper.

Zhao Bi opened the paper and his face changed.

"This is the design of the Zhao Family treasury!" Zhao Buqian stared at Zhao Rong and asked, "What are you doing with the design of the Zhao Family treasury?"

"This... "This..." Zhao Rong hesitated for a moment before saying, "We are just curious about the treasury, so we came to take a look."

"Honestly, are you guys here to steal something from the treasury? Previously, the treasures in the Zhao Family treasury were often stolen, did you do it? " Zhao Buqian asked.

"No, no!" Zhao Rong shook his head and said, "We really aren't here to steal! Butler, we are still members of the Zhao Family, so please let us go.

"You know that you're from the Zhao Family?" Zhao Rong, I know you. Zhao Rong, I know you, the branch of the Zhao Family, I have been checking the accounts of the Zhao Family, and I found out that you alone spent more than 100 million this year, but you didn't do any business, and the living expenses that the Zhao Family provides to people like you are 2 million a year. Tell me, the other 98 million, where did you come from? "

I am a member of the Zhao Family, after all, you are just an outsider with the surname Zhao, why would I need you to pay for it? The previous head of the Zhao Family did not control us, and our Zhao Family did not spend any of our money, so how could we leave it for you outsiders to spend?! Zhao Rong shouted angrily.

"Exactly, you're just an outsider. Who do you think you are? You dare to interfere with us!" A person beside Zhao Rong also shouted.

"What an outsider." Xu Taiping smiled coldly and walked over, saying, "Zhao Buqian is the chief steward I've appointed. The entire Zhao family is as big as Zhao Taiheng, and the entire family is just a small servant. Zhao Buqian can even manage them. Why can't he control the three of you?"

"Patriarch!" When Zhao Rong saw Xu Taiping, he quickly bowed to greet him.

"Patriarch!"

"Patriarch!"

The other two followed suit and bowed.

"Army lord!" The hundreds of soldiers of the Iron Blood Army kneeled down towards Xu Taiping as they shouted in unison, causing everyone to jump up in fright.

"All of you, get up." Xu Taiping said.

Just as everyone was about to get up, Xu Taiping pointed at Zhao Rong and scolded, "All three of you kneel down."

Zhao Rong and the others, who were about to stand up, immediately kneeled on the ground.

"Speak, what are you all sneaking around the treasury for? Why are there still treasures on him? " Xu Taiping asked.

"We are only here to see the treasury. The treasury is our Zhao Family's forbidden area. We are very curious. Truly, Clan Chief, we are only curious." Zhao Rong said.

"You two, I'll give you a chance." Xu Taiping pointed to the two people beside Zhao Rong and said, "Whoever tells me the truth first, I will let bygones be bygones. If you guys don't say anything, and just cover each other up, then pray that I can never find out what you guys are here for in this lifetime. Otherwise, once I find out, you three …" Let alone the members of the Zhao Family's branch, even if you are from the main branch of the Zhao Family, you must die for me! "

Following Xu Taiping's words, a terrifying killing intent enveloped the three of them.

The three of them immediately began sweating like rain.

"I... I... I say! " One of the slightly skinnier men couldn't help but shout out.

"Zhao Xu, shut up!" Zhao Rong shouted.

"Shut the f * ck up." Xu Taiping scolded.

"Patriarch, I will speak, I will speak!" The person called Zhao Xu said excitedly, "Patriarch, it's all because of Zhao Rong. He said that he has the design of the treasury and knows where to hide from the guards and steal from it. He wants us to go with him to steal from the treasury!"

"Chief, he's talking nonsense, it's not like that!" Zhao Rong shouted excitedly.

"Is that so?" Xu Taiping looked at Zhao Xu and asked, "Do you have any evidence?"

"Yes, yes, yes. Zhao Rong stole the treasure trove a few times before, but it was our Zhao Family's own treasure trove. He sold all the things in the treasure trove, that's why he has the money to spend and drink outside. His car, everything else was bought with this money." Zhao Xu said.

"Zhao Xu, you bastard!" Zhao Rong shouted in anger, "I brought you along a lot when I was spending money, and you actually dared to betray me!"

"Looks like what Zhao Xu said is true." I always thought it was those servants who did it. After all, they are not really from the Zhao Family, I didn't think that the people who stole the treasure house are actually from the Zhao Family, and also from a branch family. If Old Master Zhao knew that not long after he left, those people from the Zhao Family started to steal things from his own family, he would definitely jump out of the coffin in anger … There are people like you who are good at making contributions to the whole of China, even trash like you can steal things from your own family. No wonder Zhao Gang was unwilling to stay in the family, because no matter how much more trash you are, you are still his descendants. Sigh, living for too long is really not good. "

"Patriarch, I was wrong, please forgive me. Those things were done by the previous Patriarch. After you ascended to the position of Patriarch, I didn't steal anything, Patriarch!" Zhao Rong said excitedly.

"You did not steal anything, but that was because you were caught!" As Xu Taiping spoke, he looked at Zhao Buqian and said, "Old Zhao, what should we do according to the clan rules to steal the family's finances?"

"Evict from the Zhao Family." Zhao Buqian said.

"No, Patriarch, I beg you, please don't expel me!" Zhao Rong shouted.

"Expulsion from the Zhao Family? "No, no, no, I won't expel you!" Xu Taiping shook his head.

Hearing Xu Taiping's words, Zhao Rong heaved a sigh of relief.

"If I expel you from the Zhao Family, you will resent the Zhao Family and resent me too. You are a member of the Zhao Family, and you know too many things about the Zhao Family. "I'm really sorry, Zhao Rong. You've hit the nail on the head." As Xu Taiping spoke, he looked at Zhao Buqian and said, "Take him down, do it. Clean up his limbs and make it easier for him to bear the brunt of the pain."

"Done?" Zhao Buqian looked at Xu Taiping in surprise.

"Yes." Xu Taiping nodded.

"Don't go, Chief. Please, don't! I definitely do not dare to have any resentment towards the Zhao Family. I will admit that you want to expel me from the Zhao Family, but please do not kill me. Do not kill me! " Zhao Rong rushed over to Xu Taiping's feet while crying. He held Xu Taiping's feet tightly.

"As a member of the Zhao Family, during the worst times of the Zhao Family, you didn't contribute to the Zhao Family, and even stole treasures from the Zhao Family to satisfy your own needs. A person like you isn't worthy of being a member of the Zhao Family, nor is you worthy of being a person. Xu Taiping said coldly.

"Men, take Zhao Rong away." Zhao Buqian said with a darkened face.

"Yes sir!" A few people who were guarding the treasure walked over and grabbed Zhao Rong, who was on the ground.

Zhao Rong cried loudly, but it was useless.

Many Zhao Family members were attracted by Zhao Rong's crying voice. They stood far away and watched as Zhao Rong was taken away.

Silence reigned outside the treasury.

A faint killing intent drifted in the air.
