Chapter 197: Etiquette to People
With the sign of the Grand Governor's Palace, the carriage passed through the inner gate easily, and was allowed to pass without even checking who was in the carriage.
Although it is an inner city, it is not much smaller than the outer city, even if the number of princes and magnates is far less than that of the outer city.
Just because, the mansion in the inner city is too big, to say the least, it is more than ten times larger than the outer city, not because of the large population of the princes and magnates, but because of the large number of servants in the palace.
Every family, without dozens of servants, is not easy to go out and claim to be powerful.
Even the Han family's Governor's Mansion, which does not often live in the capital, has dozens of people who live and take care of it, and there are even more powerful people who go to the capital.
And like the Zhenxi Wangfu Villa, with hundreds of acres of courtyard, Zhu Shengnan has lived in the capital for nearly ten years, and there are at least 100 servants in it.
If you add the guards, as well as the caretaker of the capital's industry, plus the nails in the dark, there are all kinds of people, and there are always thousands of people.
Of course, these people don't necessarily live in the annex!
Usually, only the servants who take care of Zhu Shengnan's diet and daily life, tidy up the yard, plus the guards, will live in the other garden.
The last time I came to the Villa, it was close to the evening, because I had to socialize with Hu Tao and others, Lu Chuan didn't really see the whole picture of the Villa.
When I entered here again this time, I found that compared with half a month ago, the garden was already full of greenery and spring.
The small bridge and flowing water, the small pavilion of the corridor are beautiful.
I don't know if Zhu Shengnan knew that the blacksmith workshop was open today, and expected them to come, or if he had been idle recently, and it happened to be in the other garden.
The three of them didn't wait long before they met them in the pavilion of the small lake center where the banquet had been entertaining.
"Brother Han, Sister Yu Feng, Brother Lu, you are here together, it really surprises me!"
Zhu Shengnan looked at the three of them with a smile.
"The county lord is not surprised, this time I entered the mansion, my little sister and I just walked by the way and sent Brother Lu here!"
Han Baohu said slightly sideways.
"I've seen the county lord!"
Lu Chuan stepped forward and saluted.
"Brother Lu, is there something wrong?"
Zhu Shengnan asked directly.
"The last time I disturbed the county lord's banquet, I was grateful to the county lord for his magnanimity and not pursuing it, but even more so for protecting him, and I apologize deeply!"
Lu Chuan knew that the county lord in front of him was by no means as rough as he appeared on the surface, so he did enough etiquette and presented the wooden box to the road, "This is a thing that was accidentally obtained under the bottom, cast by the master of the blacksmith workshop, and invited the county lord to taste it!"
"Huh!"
Zhu Shengnan's thick eyebrows raised slightly, and he nodded.
Immediately, a beautiful maid stepped forward, took the wooden box, opened it to see that there was no danger, and then put it on the table in front of Zhu Shengnan.
"Good stuff!"
Zhu Shengnan's slender fingers gently brushed on the dark cyan scale armor, as if they were counting the dense layers of cloud patterns on it, and he raised his head and said indifferently, "This kind of treasure armor comparable to Xuan Bing is the most precious, Brother Lu is really willing to cut his love?"
"As the saying goes, the sword is matched with a hero, the county lord is in the capital, and even the Great Jin is a first-class female woman, a pair of armor, naturally nothing is nothing!"
Lu Chuan said with a smile.
The two siblings, Han Baohu and Han Yufeng, looked at each other, and seemed to be a little unbelievable, Lu Chuan, who was ruthless and decisive in killing, still had such a flattering side.
Of course, regardless of Zhu Shengnan's status and status, just at the age of his early twenties, he is already a second-grade master, and he deserves to be called a woman!
"I didn't expect Brother Lu to be so good-spoken!"
Zhu Shengnan patted the scale armor and said meaningfully, "But there is an old saying, if you are courteous to others, you must ask for something."
If Brother Lu needs anything, he might as well tell him bluntly!"
Lu Chuan raised his eyebrows, secretly a little unhappy.
Lao Tzu has sent the treasures in front of you, and you are still pretending here?
But considering that in the future, he had to press down and continue to think of a snake with Zhu Shengnan.
After all, as far as the situation is concerned, he really needs Zhu Shengnan's help more now!
"Don't hide it from the county lord, when I first arrived, I was not familiar with the place, and I showed my wealth at the county lord's banquet before.
I never thought that it would attract the covetousness of thieves, but fortunately, there are still some means to do it, so there is no accident!"
Lu Chuan groaned slightly, and said eloquently, "It's just that these people are thieves, even in the blacksmith's workshop, they have not escaped the peeps of thieves." ”
"That's it!"
Zhu Shengnan's thick eyebrows frowned slightly, his eyes flashed, and he fell on the Han family brothers and sisters and said, "Could it be that even Brother Han can't protect you?"
"Brother Lu......"
Han Yufeng's face changed, and she was about to pick up, but she was pulled by Han Baohu, and shook her head slightly.
"Ha, I have a good relationship with Brother Han, if there is trouble, of course he will not stand idly by!"
Lu Chuan snorted and said in a deep voice, "But Brother Han came to the capital this time to study, and he didn't bring many guards with him."
What's more, the Han family's ancestral home is Liangzhou, and the whip is beyond the reach of the whip, even if Brother Han has the heart to help, it is not enough.
I can't do it, so I can only ask the county lord for help, and ask the county lord to help me and help one or two!"
"It stands to reason that I won't turn a blind eye to it for the sake of the younger sister of the Yang family or Brother Han, but it seems that Brother Lu's troubles are more than just this one!"
Zhu Shengnan said meaningfully.
"Sure enough, ten days and a half months is enough for this county lord to find out some clues!"
Lu Chuan squinted his eyes, muttered secretly in his heart, and said quietly on his face, "People are in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help themselves, who will be in trouble?"
Isn't a character like the county lord who doesn't eat the fireworks of the world also haunted by mundane things?"
"Bold, dare to speculate on the county lord?"
Before Zhu Shengnan could speak, the maid behind him was already upside down and scolded.
"Don't be rude, step down!"
Zhu Shengnan raised his eyebrows and scolded, but he didn't let the maid apologize to Lu Chuan, obviously he didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
Let the maid retreat, but only because of Lu Chuan's face, most likely because of the presence of the Han family brothers and sisters.
Otherwise, with this status, I don't know what method will be used to make Lu Chuan bow his head, even if he has already shown a low profile.
Lu Chuan smiled lightly, not thinking that nothing had happened.
Han Baohu's sword frowned, and his eyes flashed with worry, Han Yufeng didn't have much heart, and he was already pouting to express his dissatisfaction.
The former, of course, knows Lu Chuan's temperament very well, for fear that he will be unhappy and cause trouble, which will be a big trouble.
As for the latter, it would be pure selfishness!
It's just that although the brother and sister have noble status, it is impossible for them to turn their faces with Zhu Shengnan for this trivial matter.
Whether it is Lu Chuan's request for Zhu Shengnan, or the identity and status of the other party are there!
"Brother Lu is really a smart person!"
Zhu Shengnan patted his armor again, and said lightly, "I accepted the gift, as for your trouble, I will let people take care of it!"
"Thank you, Lord!"
Lu Chuan got up and hugged his fists and bowed slightly.
"Please!"
Zhu Shengnan picked up the teacup and said.
Of course, Lu Chuan knew the truth of serving tea to the guest, but he didn't move.
"I was negligent!"
Zhu Shengnan groaned slightly, and called with a chuckle, "Lan'er, give Lu Gongzi a sign of the palace!"
"Yes!"
Lan'er, the maid who had just retired, stepped forward and handed a wooden card to Lu Chuan.
"Thank you to the county lord, I am still in trouble, so I won't bother the county lord much!"
Lu Chuan took it, glanced at Han Baohu's brothers and sisters, and immediately said goodbye and left together.
"Master, this person is so rude and demanding, this attitude is too rampant, you should teach him a lesson!"
Lan'er stepped forward and said indignantly.
"Rampant must also have the ability to be rampant!"
Zhu Shengnan didn't care, and patted his armor with a light smile and said, "If it weren't for his strength to cut three grades with one sword, how would I allow him?"
"But you don't have to be so indulgent!"
Lan'er pouted and frowned, "This person is ruthless, if he relies on the brand of the palace and does evil outside, wouldn't it ruin the reputation of the master?"
"Heh, you, little clever ghost, that's just a sign that is convenient for entering the inner and outer cities for the first time, and you can't transfer anything from my palace!"
Zhu Shengnan shook his head with a smile.
......
On the way back, Han Baohu opened his mouth several times, but in the end he didn't say anything, just sent Lu Chuan to the gate of the inner city, and returned to the Dadu Governor's Mansion with Han Yufeng.
"In the end, he is a child of a family, and he still knows the severity, and he is not blinded by the treasure!"
Lu Chuan rubbed the sign in his sleeve, watched the Han family's carriage disappear into the crowd, and turned around and walked towards his yard.
With this sign, it is much easier to enter and exit the inner and outer cities!
Even if his whereabouts may fall in the eyes of those who have a heart, with his strength, if he wants to hide his whereabouts, there are not too many ways.
Because of this, Han Baohu knew the general purpose of his visit to the capital, so he did not propose to give him a sign of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion.
Moreover, Han Yufeng wanted to mention it several times, but he interrupted him.
With the power of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, don't say one, even ten or eight pieces can be given.
It's just that what Lu Chuan has to do is too involved, so big that Han Baohu can't hold it, and most of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion may not be able to resist it.
Without saying a word all the way, I returned to my residence.
After sending away a few green-skinned gangsters who were shy and wanted to be rewarded, Lu Chuan came to the backyard pavilion, brewed a pot of hot tea, and poured himself a drink, silently realizing what he had obtained in the blacksmith's workshop.
"It seems that Sanpin is not far away!"
Silently feeling the heat surging in the body, like an invisible dragon snake, swimming in the meridians, and constantly converging towards the dantian, Lu Chuan knew that this was about to break through the three products, luck dantian, and open up the meridians.
Just as Lu Chuan was about to make persistent efforts and take this opportunity to try if he could condense his internal qi and open up the meridians in one breath, he was interrupted by an uninvited guest.
Like half a month ago, it was a group of people in black, who came to the backyard and killed Lu Chuan without saying a word.
What surprised Lu Chuan a little was that there was only one of the third grades, and although the rest of them were not weak, they were far worse than the previous batch.
Lu Chuan didn't have anything to say about these assassins who were not afraid of death, and a little corpse powder was sprinkled on them, allowing these people to follow in the footsteps of the previous batch of people.
Knock knock!
But before the corpse liquid could sink into the soil, Lu Chuan heard that the door of the front yard was knocked on, and he was not polite at all.
Bang!
Even, without waiting for the green-skinned gangsters guarding the door to open the door, the gate was directly torn apart, rushing into a group of black-clothed people in strong suits, heading straight for the backyard!
