Tie Butian fell silent for a moment, then suddenly raised his eyebrows and said, "Liu Cui Lake... how about it?"

"Very good," Chu Yang smiled, but his words carried a deeper meaning, "Regarding the matter of recruiting people through rewards as I mentioned, how does His Highness the Crown Prince feel about it?"

Tie Butian laughed playfully, "Pretty good."

Chu Yang also smiled, and both of them smiled with deep significance.

"I have already told Cheng Ziang that you have full authority over the Buxian Pavilion," Tie Butian looked at Chu Yang seriously, "Brother Chu, but I need to know what’s happening here. I can’t be deaf."

Chu Yang was slightly moved. Tie Butian’s words were already very clear and sincere.

"I understand, so I just gave a warning, but didn’t eliminate them," Chu Yang said, "But I have one thing I don’t understand: why do you trust me so much?"

Tie Butian stared at him for a while, then slowly smiled, "Intuition! I feel that you are worth my trust, it’s that simple."

Chu Yang suddenly found that Tie Butian’s smile was very charming. His smile started from his eyes, slowly curving, then his nose tip gently moved, his lips slightly pulled, and finally, both cheeks bloomed with a smile.

But when his eyes just started to curve, it made people feel very happy. Such a smiling Tie Butian not only lost the aura of a "born king" but also seemed extremely approachable and likable!

Chu Yang was startled by the thoughts that arose in his heart, and repeatedly reminded himself: Chu Yang, this is a man! This is a man!

Seeing Chu Yang staring at him blankly, Tie Butian suddenly turned serious and said, "I’m leaving." He stood up and hurriedly walked away with a brisk pace, not even waiting for Chu Yang to see him off, quickly disappearing.

As if he were escaping!

Chu Yang twisted his mouth and muttered to himself, "When he came, he didn’t walk with such authority, but when he left, he walked with the steps of a king. If you don’t walk like this, are you not the Crown Prince anymore? Truly, the ultimate in showing off."

Tie Butian walked out of the Buxian Pavilion and went a long way before he remembered, "Oh no, I forgot to mention the border situation..." He wanted to turn back, but after some thought, he gave up. He thought to himself: This guy, he always looks into people’s eyes when he talks, always making me nervous...

As the Crown Prince, Tie Butian’s authority had grown over the years. In the entire Tieyun Kingdom, except for Tielong City, no one dared to look him in the eye while speaking; but Chu Yang was an exception!

Chu Yang had a habit: he liked to look into people’s eyes when he spoke.

Tie Butian didn’t know that this was due to Chu Yang’s Mingle Ling Great Technique. Chu Yang was always prepared to use the Mingle Ling Great Technique to test the truthfulness of what others said. This was indeed a habit; whether it was a man or a woman, Chu Yang always looked into their eyes when speaking...

Because, when a person lies or thinks, their eyes will inevitably show some signs. Truly, those who can lie without a hint of nervousness or change in their eyes are few and far between...

In the following days, Chu Yang was busy on both fronts.

Then, in the afternoon of that day, Tie Butian, for some reason, sent Wu Qianqian over, saying she was to be Chu Yuzuo’s assistant.

Chu Yang was rather at a loss about this decision. Naturally, Wu Qianqian’s unparalleled beauty also made the rough men of the Buxian Pavilion look at her with green eyes, secretly envying the Yuzuo’s good fortune, and marveling at the degree of favor he received: such a beautiful woman, the Crown Prince actually sent her over... This clearly showed the trust and reliance on this Chu Yuzuo had reached a certain level.

And the actions of the Buxian Pavilion also truly began with great vigor from those few days!

The newly appointed Yuzuo, after reorganizing the Buxian Pavilion, immediately began his operations. He rarely showed himself, and only Wu Qianqian, who had just been transferred from the Crown Prince’s residence, passed notes outside.

Each note was a death warrant for an official! They were first arrested, then personally interrogated by Chu Yuzuo, and a large amount of evidence was presented. Then it was handed over to Tie Butian, and a royal decree followed, leading to the extermination of the entire family.

Often, several families and places would be implicated.

Chu Yuzuo personally set up three teams, all dressed in black when on duty. The Blood Fire Team, led by Captain Cheng Ziang, worked day and night, raiding, arresting, and killing...

The Iron Blood Team, led by Chu Yuzuo himself, worked day and night, interrogating and gathering evidence...

The Heavenly Strategy Team, led by Chen Yutong, worked in shifts day and night, analyzing intelligence, catching clues from the smallest details, and reporting to Chu Yuzuo for decisions.

For half a month, the capital was filled with a bloody atmosphere, and the existence of the Buxian Pavilion almost completely replaced the Ministry of Punishments; even the prison, which belonged to the Ministry of Punishments, was taken over by the Buxian Pavilion.

The efficiency of the Buxian Pavilion was unprecedented. Everyone was so busy that they didn’t even have the energy to complain, rushing back and forth all day. Even when they had a moment of leisure, they were forced to practice.

Because Chu Yuzuo said: The Buxian Pavilion needs experts and talents; those who don’t meet the training requirements should commit suicide. It’s better than being killed by others. Want to quit? Absolutely not. Once you join, you can only leave through death or disability in a mission. Even if you are disabled, you will still be given a task to analyze intelligence...

Under such strict rules, everyone trained with complaints. It seemed as if a steel blade was hanging over their heads at all times.

But Chu Yuzuo was impartial. A certain brother who didn’t train hard was discovered by Chu Yuzuo and was immediately pinned down and given two hundred military lashes!

Four military sticks were broken, and blood and flesh were splattered.

While the beating was happening, Chu Yuzuo sat in his office, listening, and sent a note: Beat him to death! If he dies, it’s his fault; if he survives, he continues to train!

Under such life-threatening pressure, everyone was silent.

Such high pressure made everyone feel suffocated; but nine days later, a third-level martial artist suddenly announced in the morning with great joy: "I’ve broken through to the fourth level!" Under such pressure, he actually broke through a level!

Who didn’t know the difficulty of breaking through in training? With such a pleasant surprise, everyone naturally wanted to see. When they saw, everyone’s eyes turned blue with envy: under such busyness and pressure, he actually broke through...

A few days later, several people also discovered with great joy that the bottleneck they had been stuck in for years suddenly showed signs of loosening, as if they were about to break through...

Inspired by these examples, everyone trained even harder without needing to be urged. They couldn’t fall behind... how embarrassing would that be? Besides, with higher skills, they would have a better chance of achieving great deeds, and the titles of nobility and high ranks were within reach...

Thus, everyone seemed to suddenly understand Chu Yuzuo’s good intentions, and the atmosphere changed from the previous gloom to a fiery enthusiasm.

Chu Yuzuo is doing this for our good!
