Chapter 19: Becoming a Guest

"Please!" At the door of the city lord's study, the old servant spoke again. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"Hmm!" Yang Man, who was inconvenient to look at more, nodded, slowly pushed open the door, and walked in, the city lord's residence was not as magnificent as he imagined, and the study was not the kind of poetry and books full of literary and ink atmosphere, but hung a lot of strange things, at first glance it really didn't look like a study.

Without much observation, Yang Man walked to the study, and a slender figure with white hair and a slender left hand stood with his back to him looking out the window, huh......? White-haired, is the castle lord already very old?

You should be thinking about something, right? That's why he didn't notice him coming in, Yang Man thought about it, pinched his throat, pretended to cough and then saluted, "Lord City Lord!"

"Huh......?" didn't react, could it be that I was too quiet, Yang Man raised his voice, "City Lord?" ā€

Yang Man frowned, still hasn't reacted? What are you looking at? Yang Man approached curiously, looking out of the window through the gap blocked by Baijie, what was he looking at? Why can't I see anything, closer? Yang Man got closer again, but Bai Jie suddenly turned around, Yang Man lowered his head and froze his steps, and felt a curious gaze Yang Man froze, "Hehe! ā€

"What are you doing?" Bai Jie asked, his tone gentle.

Yang Man's eyes widened, and he mechanically retracted his steps and stood up, and replied mechanically: "I didn't do anything."

Yang Man raised his head, and his face was suddenly filled with a look of astonishment, "Bai ...... Bai Jingyan? ā€

Don't blame Yang Man for being like this, everyone who saw this father and son was more or less surprised, not for anything, just because they looked too similar, and the only place that could distinguish them the most was hair, Yang Man wondered if Bai Jingyan was playing his own father and joking with himself, and Yang Man made a subtle observation that this was not Bai Jingyan, because he found the fine lines at the corners of Bai Jie's eyes......

Bai Jie had expected Yang Man's reaction, and with a smile on his face, he explained, "Xiao Yan is my son."

"Hmm...... Well, you know...... Know! The lord of the castle is so young! Soon Yang Man realized his gaffe, in Yang Man's heart, Bai Jingyan saved him and carefully healed him for the past few days, he was very grateful, and this Bai Jie is Bai Jingyan's father, and he has long heard that the city lord is very good at doing things reasonably, and he should give him high respect for reason, so he bowed his hand seriously and said: "Under Yang Man, I don't know what the city lord is doing here?"

"Don't worry, you sit down first!" Bai Jie pointed to the chair under him.

Yang Man sat down generously, and the tea had been placed on the table next to him at some point, before he thought that the White City Lord was standing there with a solemn and solemn appearance that was not angry and arrogant, but now he saw that he was so kind.

"I heard Xiao Yan say that you searched for Yandu thousands of miles just to find Guan Haotian?"

"Do you know where he is?" Hearing Guan Haotian's words, Yang Man stood up excitedly.

"Sorry, I don't know where he is right now?" Bai Jie said apologetically.

Yang Man sat down with some disappointment.

"I don't know what your relationship with Guan Haotian is?"

"He's my brother!" Yang Man had no intention of hiding it.

"Brother?" Bai Jie looked a little confused.

"Actually, my name is Guan Man, just for some reason...... It's called Yang Man for the time being! "When I go back, my father won't be angry when he sees that my cultivation has risen so fast!

Is the name temporary? Bai Jie touched his beard, "Although Guan Haotian has lived here for several years, as a guest of the City Lord's Mansion, the City Lord's Mansion has never restrained him too much, he has always liked to be alone, except for important things, he will not bother him, he is relatively close to Xiao Zhi Xiaoyan." ā€

"Oh, that's it, well, you say he's a guest here?"

Bai Jie said: "Yes, all capable people in Yandu have the opportunity to become the guest secretary of the City Lord's Mansion, Guan Haotian is extremely talented, he is a cultivation wizard, and he can naturally become the guest secretary of the City Lord's Mansion!"

"Of course, Yang Gongzi's talent is also very rare, if Yang Gongzi is interested, he can naturally become a guest of the City Lord's Mansion!" Bai Jie said.

"Keqing? What is Keqing? Yang Man asked, this should be the real intention of this White City Lord to find him.

"Keqing is naturally a distinguished guest of the City Lord's Mansion, and the City Lord's Mansion will provide the corresponding Keqing with some cultivation resources, and the City Lord's Mansion has something that is not easy to solve, and sometimes it needs to trouble the Keqing to do it for him, and there will be a corresponding remuneration afterwards, of course, he does not force it, the Keqing has the right to refuse!"

Yang Man nodded and said that he understood, it turned out that this was the case, it should be similar to employment! But it can also be considered, anyway, because of the assassination, he is now penniless, and he can't live in an inn when he leaves the City Lord's Mansion, he also planned to find an errand to earn some money to live in Yandu, and it should be a good errand to be in the City Lord's Mansion, and he has lived here for a few days, and he still owes the City Lord's Mansion a favor, and the most important thing is that his brother has lived here......

After thinking about it, Yang Man decided that the proposal of the White City Lord was still good, so he asked Bai Jie, "Then how can I become a guest secretary?" ā€

"So Yang Gongzi agreed?" Bai Jie smiled.

Yang Man nodded.

"Young Master Yang doesn't need to do anything, you can just come up and get something!" Bai Jie pushes out a jade box on the table.

"Pick something?" Yang Man was puzzled, but he still got up and stepped forward.

Looking at the jade box, Yang Man pointed, for me?

Bai Jie nodded.

"What is it?" Yang Man picked up the box and opened it suspiciously.

"This is Keqing's order, this piece was returned by Guan Haotian when he left two years ago, I never thought that he would never come back after leaving!" Bai Jie looked at the purple jade plate that Yang Man had already held in his hand, and his expression was a little regretful.

"My brother's!" Only then did Yang Man begin to seriously examine the jade plaque in his hand, which was made of fine purple jade, crystal clear, especially with a few small characters about Haotian on it, but now his name Yang Man was added to the back of it.

"Never came back?" Yang Man muttered to himself.

"Yes, neither of the two conferences has arrived!"

He returned it two years ago, did he realize that something might happen to him? A trace of worry appeared in Yang Man's eyes.

Seeing Yang Man pondering, the White City Lord did not bother.

Soon, Yang Man restrained his expression and said, "Thank you Bai City Lord, Yang Man will accept this jade brand!"

"Good! Since you are already a guest of the City Lord's Mansion, don't feel constrained, and treat this place as your home, huh...... Just like Yibai, they are very casual ......"

"Hmm......? Mu Zhi is also a guest? Yang Man was a little surprised.

"Well, yes, listen to Xiaobai, you have fought each other, Xiaozhi has suffered a loss, and it is not easy to let Xiaozhi's child suffer!" Bai Jie said, in a peaceful tone.

……

Seeing that it was almost over, Yang Man was about to leave, after all, today's amount of information was still worth digesting, he went back to think about it, "I have been disturbed for a long time, if there is nothing else, then I will leave first!" ā€

"No hurry," the White City Lord waved his hand.

Well? Anything else?

"The previous events are secondary! And there's more to come! "The White City Lord seemed to be very serious.

What has just happened is secondary, haven't you yet stepped into the topic? Seeing this, Yang Man also began to get serious......

"Do you know how to play chess?"

"Understand?"

Under Yang Man's puzzled gaze, the White City Lord carefully placed a chessboard on the table......
