Reborn with super powers: The general wants to repay his kindness
Chapter 119 This little lady is...
He picked up the token and looked at it carefully, then handed it back to Luzi with both hands, and said hurriedly: "This is not the place to talk. Please follow Shang."
Lu Yanzhao nodded to Li Cheng, put the token in his arms, and followed Shang Yilan out of the private room with Li Cheng, heading to the backyard behind the tea house where outsiders stopped.
Behind the tea house is an elegantly decorated courtyard, which is occasionally used to entertain distinguished guests, but since the young master of the Shang family is here, it will naturally not be used to entertain foreign guests.
Walking through the courtyard to the reception hall, Shang Yilan reluctantly controlled himself not to look back and stare at Lu Yanzhao's face.But the more he looked, the more certain he became. This man was General Huwei, who was famous in the capital for his fierce reputation. No, he should be called Marquis of Dingguo now.
Only now did he have time to study the young lady walking side by side with Lu Yanzhao, and recalled the young lady's title to Lu Yanzhao: cousin!
Damn it, why hadn't he heard the Sixth Prince mention that Lu Yanzhao had other relatives besides those troublesome family members of Marquis Wu'an?And you are still following Lu Yanzhao?Not to mention that his colleague Lu Yanzhao was not very familiar with him. I am afraid that even the Sixth Prince had never seen Lu Yanzhao with a young lady by his side.
Shang Yilan is a good person, and he has more discernment than Lu Yanzhao when it comes to getting along with his sister.How could he not see the difference in how Lu Yanzhao treated the little lady around him?Lu Yanzhao has a reputation for being vicious. Apart from his reputation on the battlefield and the scar on his face, the most important thing is that he never treats any of his sisters with pretentious words.
And this little lady... I just heard from the waiter that he personally led the horse for her.In this way, rich associations suddenly opened up in Shang Yilan's mind.
After Lu Yanzhao was invited to the main seat, Shang Yilan, who was born in the imperial business and had no official status, wanted to bow to see him.
Lu Yanzhao raised his hand to stop him: "Young Master Shang, there is no need to be so polite. I have something important to ask you." The other side led Li Cheng to sit down on the seat next to him, and at the same time introduced the other party's identity to Li Cheng.
Li Cheng clasped his fists and said, "Li Cheng, I have met Mr. Shang."
"You're welcome, Miss Li." Shang Yilan responded politely.
Shang Yilan had gotten along with Lu Yanzhao in private. Although this person seemed cold and hard to get close to, he actually didn't have many rules, so he would bother him when the Sixth Prince had nothing to do, but he never refused the Sixth Prince's offer. If you get close, you can see the general.
Seeing his attitude towards Li Cheng at this time, I couldn't help being surprised.He became more and more curious about Li Cheng, and even more curious about the scar that even the imperial doctor could not completely remove. Why was it gone?
However, there was nothing on the face of the young master of the Shang family. He just smiled and said: "General, wait a moment. I will bring you some refreshments."
Lu Yanzhao turned around and looked at Li Cheng, nodded and said, "Okay." Lu Yanzhao didn't need it, but was thinking about whether Li Cheng had eaten well just now?
Shang Yilan didn't let outsiders serve him, but the shopkeeper didn't dare to let him serve tea or water, so he was the one who served the tea. When he saw the two people the young master personally entertained sitting on the main seat, the shopkeeper He lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes without saying much. He placed the tea and snacks on the coffee table and then quietly retreated, not allowing anyone to enter the yard again.
"Please." Shang Yilan stretched out his hand and said.
Lu Yanzhao first pushed the dim sum towards Li Cheng. He was not interested in dim sum, but the dim sum in Shangjia Teahouse tasted pretty good.
Shang Yilan turned his face away when he saw this, and used his sleeves to block his almost uncontrollable expression.General Huwei waited on people expressionlessly. This scene was really unbearable for him for a while.
"How is the situation in the capital?" Lu Yanzhao turned around and asked.
Shang Yilan sat on the side seat, cupped his hands and said: "General, no, you should call the general a Marquis after returning to the capital. Your Majesty has already drafted a decree to confer the general as a first-class Marquis of Dingguo. You will be called upon to do so after you return to the capital." Will issue an order. And all the government offices in the capital are aware of this matter, so Wu'an Hou Mansion is a little uneasy..."
Shang Yilan told Lu Yanzhao everything he knew, and Lu Yanzhao sneered clearly: "How can they really imagine that the adopted brothers will inherit the title and that they have already cheated?"
"I haven't heard of it before leaving Beijing."
Lu Yanzhao could guess what the selfish and greedy people in Wu'anhou's mansion would do. He really didn't know where the people in Wu'anhou's mansion had the confidence to think that His Majesty would follow their whims. ?Even if he really died outside as they wished, this title would never fall to them.
The matter of the title was within his expectation.The emperor had revealed this intention to him before, and this time he had successfully escorted him, and the title was worthy of the name.As far as Lu Yanzhao was concerned, being promoted to an official position was just to disgust the Wu'an Marquis Mansion. Seeing their jealousy towards him made Lu Yanzhao feel a little happier.
But now, looking at Li Cheng, who was smiling and eating snacks, the title had another meaning.
Shang Yilan had been paying attention to the situation of the two people opposite him. The young lady's expression was that she was enjoying the tea, which made him feel relieved but also a little disappointed.
Why was this little lady not surprised and happy at all when she heard that General Huwei had received a title?It's like it's none of my business.If he had any other ideas, he could talk to the Sixth Prince.
Shang Yilan tried his best not to show a weird look, and replied seriously: "The papers haven't been handed over yet, but the papers asking Jinlin to be the Marquis of Wu'an have been sent over. After leaving the capital, I received news from the capital, Wu'an The old lady and the Marquis of the Hou Mansion have recently been either hosting banquets or going to other noble houses, and the matter of seeking the title of general has been spread privately throughout the capital, and now people all over the capital are waiting to see the joke in the Wu'an Hou Mansion."
It's the end of the year, and the Wu'an Hou Mansion has put on a good show for the people in Beijing, and many people will be grateful to them.
Lu Yanzhao paused while holding the tea bowl. Without mentioning when he would return to the capital, he asked, "How could Mr. Shang leave the capital and appear here?"
Shang Yilan said with a smile, "The general is missing, and the sixth prince is most worried. Now he has obtained your majesty's order to secretly search for the whereabouts of the general. I was worried and followed him. On the way, we got news that the general finally appeared. The place is in the deep mountains and old forests in this area. We investigated separately and after we came down here, the sixth prince went to the neighboring county of Anqing County the day before yesterday because he heard that someone suspected of being a general had appeared. The general also knew the character of the sixth prince and got the news. No matter where you sit, he will come immediately when the news comes."
Lu Yanzhao had guessed that Shang Yilan's departure from the capital was arranged by the sixth prince, but he did not expect that the sixth prince would also leave the capital, so he secretly searched for him.When the prince leaves the capital, he still needs to cover up his affairs secretly. It must have been a waste of effort to get permission from His Majesty.
This friendship made Lu Yanzhao feel a little warm in his heart.
Lu Yanzhao nodded to Li Cheng, put the token in his arms, and followed Shang Yilan out of the private room with Li Cheng, heading to the backyard behind the tea house where outsiders stopped.
