Chapter Forty-Six: Taishou Mansion!
Hearing Li Xinran's domineering words, Lu Chen just twitched the corners of his mouth and didn't speak, how could a family that could exist from the Sui Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty be wiped out?
After this small county town, it was not far from Minzhou, they walked for about a day or so, and when dusk came, they could already vaguely see the majestic city in the distance. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
When they came to the city, it was already dark, and the soldiers guarding the gate hurriedly opened the city gate to welcome them in after seeing the official talisman displayed by Lu Chen, and escorted them all the way to the Taishou's mansion.
When he came to the Taishou Mansion, it was the housekeeper in the mansion who opened the door, Lu Chen inquired, and then he learned that the Taishou was called by the current head of the Jiang family to drink.
Hearing this news, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he said with a slight meaning, "Lord Taishou has a very good relationship with this Jiang family!" ”
Hearing Lu Chen's words, the housekeeper smiled a little awkwardly and said, "General, you don't know that the Jiang family's power in Minzhou City is too strong, and every time the Taishou arrives, he will try his best to have a good relationship with the Jiang family." ”
"Oh? So who controls this Minzhou City? Lu Chen smiled.
Hearing such straightforward words, the housekeeper was stunned for a moment, and then responded with a little deep meaning, "On the surface, we are naturally too guarded."
He won't say anything about this, but Lu Chen can hear the meaning of the words, on the surface, he is too controlled, and he can't say who is in secret.
"Everyone is tired from running all the way from Chang'an City, don't stand here" At this time, the housekeeper suddenly smiled and diverted the topic.
Lu Chen didn't continue to ask, after a group of people entered the Taishou Mansion, Lu Chen found that the area of the Taishou Mansion was very large, and there were also a lot of rooms, even if more than a hundred of them were crowded in, it would not be crowded in the slightest.
In the middle of the night, Lu Chen found the two subordinates sent to him by Song Cai and said, "While you have just entered here, I will find an opportunity to send you out later, and try not to let people see your faces." After you go out, don't contact me again, you go buy the next store first, and when the Datang Express here opens, I will go to you." Remember, I may have to confront this Jiang family in the future, and you must not let people find out that they have anything to do with me......."
Lu Chen gave half of his property and printing presses and other things to the two of them, and he believed that Datang Express would soon be able to develop here. Of course, the premise is that the Jiang family does not block it.
Before dawn, these two people had already left the Taishou Mansion, which was brought out by Lu Chen, and when they went out, their whole bodies were covered, but because of Lu Chen's leadership, the person guarding the door did not stop them.
Walking to a remote place, Lu Chen whispered to the two of them, "Let's go, remember not to be too high-profile here, and guard against the Jiang family!" ”
Lu Chen believes that when Datang Express starts business, the Jiang family will definitely target it, after all, the huge profits in this industry are eye-catching.
Lu Chen walked back for a short time, and abruptly, his figure disappeared in place in a flash.
"Say, why are you following us?" In a corner, Lu Chen put his saber on the neck of a man in black and said coldly. Just when they came out of the Taishou Mansion, Lu Chen noticed that there were people behind him, but he didn't startle the snake until he sent the two here, Lu Chen pretended to go back, but in fact he followed again, and sure enough, the two black-clothed men who were following him were following the two people he sent away.
Lu Chen quietly killed one person from behind them, and as soon as the other person reacted, Lu Chen's saber was already on his shoulder, so frightened that this person suddenly didn't dare to move.
What Lu Chen didn't expect was that he hadn't used any means, and this person had said everything that should have been said and what should not have been said, it turned out that these two people were filmed by the housekeeper of the Taishou Mansion to spy on Lu Chen, after all, this housekeeper didn't know Lu Chen's attitude.
Lu Chen asked suspiciously, "Then he sent two people with such weak strength?" Not afraid of being found out by us? “
Hearing Lu Chen's words, the man in black suddenly said with some shame, "I... We are in the Taishou Mansion, and our strength is already good~"
Lu Chen was speechless, this is so weak?
After asking what he wanted to ask, he saw Lu Chen's hand move slightly, and with a cold light flashing in the night sky, this person fell to the ground with an unwilling face.
Lu Chen calmly walked towards the Taishou Mansion. The next day, the housekeeper came to visit and asked with a smile, "The general doesn't know that he is quite satisfied with his stay here?" ”
Lu Chen stretched his waist and said with a smile, "It's okay to live, it's just that there are too many bugs at night, but I have already solved the two little bugs last night, so the housekeeper doesn't have to bother!" After speaking, Lu Chen also smiled at the housekeeper, revealing a row of white teeth, making people look as if he was a boy next door.
However, after hearing this, the housekeeper's face froze, and then he smiled and said, "Don't worry, general, there will be no more insects in the future, and the old man will definitely clean it up for you."
Lu Chen smiled brightly at the housekeeper again, and said, "Thank you butler!" ”
At this time, the housekeeper suddenly changed the topic and said, "We are too guarded, please everyone!" ”
After speaking, he went to the next room with Lu Chen to call Li Xinran, and then followed the old housekeeper to the living room of the Taishou Mansion.
When he came to the living room, Lu Chen saw a slightly chubby middle-aged man sitting inside, and after seeing Lu Chen, he immediately greeted him enthusiastically and said, "The two generals came from afar, and Yan missed the welcome!" Please forgive me! ”
Lu Chen didn't care, arched his hand and said, "It's too polite, I don't know what Tubo has done recently?" ”
"The general is really dedicated, he just came and began to ask about the border defense, and recently Tubo has been repelled by General Lin Yuan. However, listening to the recent news from General Lin Yuan, it seems that Tubo is about to start a counteroffensive again? ”
After listening to this Taishou introduce the situation here, Lu Chen said, "Taishou, can you find us some books about Tubo?" We won't bother too much in the Taishou Mansion, and when we get the book, we will leave Minzhou City! ”
Hearing this, the Taishou was obviously stunned, he thought that these two teenagers were forced to come. There are many ministers and generals in the court who will go to the frontier for training, but few of these people really participate in the training, such as those who came to Minzhou City a few years ago, only one has been on the battlefield, and the other teenagers are staying in Minzhou City for a period of time, at most they will watch the battlefield in the rear.
However, the two who came this time were about to go to the battlefield as soon as they arrived in Minzhou City, which made Taishou a little stunned for a while. After coming back to his senses, Taishou advised, "The two of you don't know how dangerous the battlefield is, and you will lose your life if you are not careful, even the general is the same, Yan suggested that the two of them should stay in this Minzhou City, and when the time comes, Yan will write a letter to the two of them to prove that the two of them have been on the battlefield, and you must have completed the task!" ”
