Reborn with super powers: The general wants to repay his kindness

"... Mr. Shang and the Shang family are smart people and know how to make choices. But the same cannot be said for the rest of the Shang family, especially the second master of the Shang family. Now his reputation is even louder than that of the head of the Shang family. Not only does he occupy a higher position after the branch, He has acquired a lot of property from the Shang family and is very close to the fourth prince. His family also sent his sister to the fourth prince’s residence.”

"Fourth Prince?" Jiang Yingwu frowned. Cheng Xuan knew it by looking at his expression and said, "Looking at you, someone must have come to persuade you to join the Fourth Prince's Palace after the results were released, right? Now His Majesty's dragon body is gradually recovering. , you and I, who are just about to enter the official career, should not wade into such muddy waters. Otherwise, there is no guarantee that the fourth prince will not become..." Cheng Xie's voice became smaller and smaller, and he extended a thumb and then Made a five sign.

Jiang Yingwu squeezed the wine glass in his hand tightly. Those days made him frightened and panicked, and his original expectations for his future were also cast a shadow. This capital was full of dangers.

Wang Yu had just arrived and didn't understand many things. Since it was the first time he met Cheng Xuan, he didn't say much and only listened with his ears.

"Jiang understands." Jiang Yingwu raised his glass to indicate that it was a rare friendship for Cheng Xuan to remind him at this point.

Cheng Xuan smiled and drank the glass of wine with him. For the sake of what Jiang Yingwu reminded him, he gave him some advice to prevent him from being deceived.

And although Jiang Yingwu has a more upright temperament, he is not a clumsy person. Who can say that there will not be other fortunes in the future?

"That's right!" Cheng Xuan changed the subject and said, "What does Brother Wang's family do for a living?"

Wang Yu didn't expect that Cheng Xuan would suddenly ask him. He was stunned for a moment before reacting, and replied with a smile: "My family mainly makes a living in grain and oil in Anqing County, but my maternal family has passed down the ink-making craft, so I also run a business." Si Bao, when I come to Beijing this time, I also want to explore the road first and see what’s going on.”

Jiang Yingwu also said: "Brother Wang's family is good at making ink. Most of the ink I use was donated by Brother Wang."

Wang Yu saw Jiang Yingwu helping to lead the conversation, and hurriedly took out a wooden box from his side: "My grandpa made this with his own hands. I hope Brother Cheng won't dislike it."

Cheng Xuan didn't expect to be involved in this kind of business, so he became interested and opened the box. There were three ink sticks inside. He could tell by the smell of the ink that it was good. He just had to wait until he went back to try it out to know whether the ink was good or not. He said with a smile. : "Then Cheng accepted it shamelessly."

Wang Yu was busy and gave it up. He still had confidence in his own Mo, and he was also lucky to have Jiang Yingwu as a good friend.

The three of them finished drinking and left the restaurant. Cheng Xuan said goodbye to the two of them, agreed to meet again another day, and left in two directions.

This scene fell in the eyes of the people in the carriage that stopped at Yidi. Zhao Shuyun and Li Qi stared at Jiang Yingwu's figure, and disappeared into the crowd, never to be seen again.

"How could it be possible? Why is Jiang Yingwu in the capital? By the way, he must be here to take the exam. Qi'er, do you think he has seen us? Will he tell us about us?" Zhao Shuyun first saw an acquaintance. She panicked, after all, this relative knew that she was very guilty, and she was far less calm than Li Qi. "And the young master who just talked to Jiang Yingwu is the young master of the Cheng family who has met twice in the house. Just in case..."

"Why are you panicking!" Although Li Qi was angry and worried when he saw Jiang Yingwu, he was much calmer than Zhao Shuyun, and said displeasedly: "I remember that Mr. Cheng family, you forgot that they said that Mr. Cheng was a Jinshi in Jinke. If the same It’s not surprising that I know each other.” But if Jiang Yingwu also passes the exam...

The Jiang family refused to marry her, which made her hate her so much. Before she came to Beijing, she would never let go. She must marry Jiang Yingwu. Looking at Anqing County, who has a son as outstanding as Jiang Yingwu? ?

But now Li Qi only had hatred and disdain in her heart. "The Master of the Cheng family is just a minister of the Ministry of Industry. Although Mrs. Cheng is related to the Queen, she is not of a high status. We don't need to be afraid of her." Now Li Qi has come to Beijing to see many powerful people enjoying the glory they have never seen before. It's really He regarded himself as a descendant of the Queen's uncle, and even the Minister of Works looked down upon him.

Li Qi straightened his back as he spoke. He thought that among the powerful people in the capital, how many families could compare with the wealth of Duke Cheng'en?Duke Chengen's Mansion is the mother's home of the Queen's relative, the Empress.

"What if Jiang Yingwu passes the imperial examination this time?" Zhao Shuyun asked Li Qi's worries.

"Huh, he's just a newly promoted Jinshi. The Jiang family has nothing to rely on in the capital, so there's nothing to worry about! Go back and ask him if he has sent an official. If not, he will be sent to the farthest and most remote place from the capital. Never come back in my life." She wanted to show off in front of Jiang Yingwu and see how regretful he was, but she didn't dare to really meet these people who knew her background for fear that she would be exposed.

"That's fine, it's best not to meet in the capital again." Zhao Shuyun hurriedly agreed.

The two men hurried back to Duke Chengen's Mansion without even getting off the carriage.

Because Li Cheng ate a lot, Lu Yanzhao and Shang Yilan ate slowly with her, taking more time than others.

After eating and drinking, Li Cheng thought of a very famous dish with extremely complicated ingredients. Looking at the two noble people around him, it was not difficult to find the ingredients.

Of course Shang Yilan applauded after hearing this, and he was not reluctant. He just made a list of the ingredients he needed, and if he didn't have them here, he would find a way to quickly deliver them from other places.

Cheng'en Palace

The old lady heard the message from her servant that Miss Li Qi was asking to see her. She waved her hand lazily and let people find an excuse to disappear. The nanny who was waiting at her side went out for a while and then turned around and said with a smile: "The old servant said that the old lady is a little tired." Yes, that child was quite well-behaved. Before leaving, he told the old lady to have a good rest."

The old lady Chen leaned on the couch and beat her legs. Grandma immediately took over and started beating her gently. The force was neither light nor heavy, making her half-squint her eyes as if she was about to fall asleep.

Suddenly I heard her say: "What do you think the Queen is thinking? Do you really not care about the last bloodline of the Luo family? She was the one who asked our Cheng'en Palace to pay attention to the news about her cousin in the early years, but now she has been found. On the contrary, she is unwilling to pay attention to her. The Queen's temper has become more and more erratic over the years. It's a good thing that Your Majesty and her are a young couple, otherwise... our whole family will not be in a good situation. "

The old mama's eyelids twitched. Chen dared to scold the queen. She didn't dare to answer another sentence. She raised her head and smiled: "Is it possible that the time has passed for too long and the queen no longer cares about her as much as she did at first? Besides, the queen has not been here since she was a child. After I died, I was always depressed..."

Mrs. Chen said unhappily: "At first, her brother and I advised her to adopt a prince and keep her by her side, but look what she did? She still thought that her brother and I would harm her. Although she and the Duke are not the same person. She was born from my mother, but after all, her surname is Mei, don’t you understand the principle of prosperity and prosperity? I think she remembers the grudges of the past."
