Chapter 53: Dreadnought

Previous Chapter

"What, did you provoke Si Hongzhi?" Lan Hanxian's face was expressionless, and in his opinion, it was already very normal.

Zhong Lijun's face was full of unhappiness, and he said: "How could I provoke him? Not the prime minister, you asked me to go to the treasury some time ago to get that kind of makeup and give it to the princess, and now that Si Hongzhi suspects that I went to steal it, and ordered someone to search my mansion." ”

The more Zhong Lijun spoke, the more angry he became, Lan Hanxian put down a stone in his heart, after all, this was not a big deal, he also knew that those toiletries were originally meant to be given to his mother, but he was negligent before, and he didn't say hello to Si Hongzhi.

"What, now they've started to search?" Lan Hanxian's expression was still calm.

"That's right, Prime Minister, if you don't care about it, then the entire Prime Minister's Mansion will know that maybe I stole something that was originally going to be given to the old lady, so what should I do?" Zhong Lijun was extremely anxious.

"Okay, let's go. Lan Hanxian could only put down the pen in his hand, and then stood up, the clothes on his body still looked a little thin at this time, and he walked straight out.

Zhong Lijun followed, and the servants along the way, when they saw that it was Lan Hanxian walking with Zhong Lijun, they all hurriedly stepped aside, then lowered their heads, and stood like this.

Now in Zhong Lijun's mansion, groups of domestic servants rushed in, and no one stopped them at all.

This Si Hongzhi has an extremely obese figure, and he has also walked in like this, for so many years, although Zhong Lijun has owned this mansion for a very long time, but he has never been here.

He glanced around, although this mansion was not very luxurious from the outside, it looked more like the mansion of an ordinary baron, but inside it was carved beams and paintings, as luxurious as the prime minister's main hall.

All around the mansion were placed incomparably precious things, which were paid tribute to the prime minister by various kingdoms every year, but the prime minister would also reward those things that he did not seem to particularly need to the people below.

"Big butler, do we need to look through the cabinets here?" a domestic servant ran up and said in front of Si Hongzhi.

Si Hongzhi had a big belly, and he said: "I turned it all over, after all, the loss of things in the warehouse is not a trivial matter, by the way, check everything here to see if it came out of the warehouse." ”

"Yes!" replied the servant at once, and went down to make arrangements.

All the work was in full swing, and at this time, a voice came from outside: "The prime minister has arrived." ”

As soon as this voice fell, everyone in the room immediately stopped the movements in their hands, Si Hongzhi had long expected that the prime minister would come, after all, Zhong Lijun Ke had always been the person by the prime minister's side, and he was the person who the old lady stayed here.

Lan Hanxian walked in wearing a thin blue coat, he was dressed very simply, his long black hair was tied together, and he looked a little flowing in the air.

Most of the people in this mansion almost focused their eyes on the prime minister, they were stunned for a moment, and they all lowered their heads quickly, and said in unison: "I've seen the prime minister." ”

Although they all work in the prime minister's mansion, there are not many opportunities to meet the prime minister.

"Prime Minister. Si Hongzhi turned around and saw the prime minister, he just nodded his head and showed favor to Lan Hanxian.

Lan Hanxian didn't say anything, his face was very calm, at this time, he didn't favor anyone, but said bluntly: "That dressing supplies, I ordered Zhong Lijun to go to the treasury to get them, and they are currently given to Princess An Nanguo in the main hall." ”

Lan Hanxian said a few simple words, but it made Si Hongzhi a little surprised, he didn't expect that the prime minister would actually give the toiletries to An Xuexin, after all, it was a gift from the Xuanwu Emperor, and it was something to give to the old lady.

"Prime Minister, the toiletries are for the old lady, and someone has already been sent to inform the old lady before, and they should be sent over in the near future. Although Si Hongzhi's words were not big, they were loud, and every word was full of strength.

Lan Hanxian naturally knows, but he doesn't have much affection for his mother Yan Fajiarong, who lives far away in the suburbs, and he has always been the old lady who lacks something, so he buys whatever he wants, but the old lady Yan Fajiarong rarely lacks things, after all, it is the prime minister's mother, and she is the first lady supported by the imperial court.

"I know, I have already decided on this matter, and then I will send someone to inform the old lady, and say that the toiletries are temporarily given to Princess An Nanguo for special reasons, and if there is a better one in the future, I will send it to the old lady. Lan Hanxian said indifferently.

"Yes!" Si Hongzhi could only agree, after all, he was just the chief butler of the Prime Minister's Mansion, how could he go to the Prime Minister's head.

"Everybody stops, it's okay to go. Lan Hanxian said loudly to everyone in the room again.

No one in this room dared to raise their heads to look at Lan Hanxian, they all lowered their heads, and immediately agreed loudly: "Yes!"

Zhong Lijun stood beside Lan Hanxian, looking at Si Hongzhi with an extremely proud face.

But Si Hongzhi didn't care about this, for him, he seemed to want to do things well.

In this way, after Si Hongzhi retired to Lan Hanxian, he hurriedly walked out from here with people, and only the original Zhong Lijun was left in this mansion.

Lan Hanxian has rarely been to this mansion, he looked around, the luxury here is also what he expected, after all, he always gives some of his things to Zhong Lijun from time to time, and this mansion was also built by his mother Yan Fajiarong when she was still living in the Prime Minister's Mansion, although it looks a little old on the outside, but it is still extremely luxurious inside.

Outside the mansion of the chief butler, the thin butler was already standing at the door with the little girl behind him, and on both sides of the door of the mansion, there were two guards.

"When will the big butler come back?" said the thin butler a little anxiously, he glanced at the girl standing behind him, the sun was shining on her body, and the sweat on her body couldn't stop dripping down.

"I don't know, the big butler went out with someone, and he should be back in a while, so you can wait here for a while. That's all the guard could say.
