Chapter 744: Stepping into the Prime Minister's Mansion (Part II)
"Let's go and see the Prime Minister's Mansion of our empire. ”
The previous short episode did not bring any discomfort to the hearts of several people, but when she knew that Gu Chen was the one who came out of the mud and was not stained, Lu Qi's admiration for him was even more uncontrollable, presumably if it weren't for the presence of others at this moment, she really wanted to throw herself into that warm embrace.
"Click...... I've been wanting to visit the old man for a long time, let's go. Ren Yaoxiang's tongue slowly swept across the slightly dry lip flap, revealing a hideous meaning.
......
The Prime Minister's Mansion, like the residences of other imperial officials, is located in the rich land in the east of the city, according to legend, because this land is far away from the east, every day at sunrise, there will be a thick purple gas swaying, and this breath is called the health of the people in the city, with the effect of consolidating the foundation and prolonging life.
Therefore, among the imperial officials, there was also a unanimous demand that the mansion be built in this area.
In the east of the city, there is a clear difference between this and the west of the city, that is, although the streets here are also very open, some are even much larger than the main streets in the west of the city, but this place is far less lively than the west of the city.
At a glance, on both sides of this wide street, there are all red official gates, and there are fewer warblers and swallows on both sides of the street, but there are many more gorgeous carriages that come and go on the road at a fast speed. Whenever the carriages stopped at a mansion, an official dressed in imperial court clothes could be seen entering the mansion, and then the carriage was led down an alley by the men waiting at the door, and disappeared.
"These people, holding the Imperial Fortune in their hands, enjoy the specially built shelter of the Empire, but they don't see how much effort they have contributed to the Empire, but they are excellent at intrigue and using power for personal gain. ”
Walking on the street, Gu Chen looked at the towering official doors on both sides of his side, and sighed. Thinking of the small village where he once lived, that place also belonged to the Tianyan Empire, but the people there were all working for a living, and these imperial officials who held power and had nothing to do were simply different.
"Hee-hee...... On the emperor's side, these people can't help themselves, if there are no means, I'm afraid I don't know where they have become, but I don't know that accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger. Lu Qi smiled, she was used to seeing these officialdom, even the former Lu family, if they wanted to do some small business, they had to look at the faces of many officials.
"It's just moths, what do we have to do with it?" Walking behind, Xiao Dingshan touched his huge bald head and grinned. Indeed, they are puppeteers who are beyond the common people, and these deceitful people cannot be involved, and even if the empire wants them to work for them, it depends on their faces.
"Hehe, it's still Dingshan who thinks clearly, but in the world, some things are inevitable. Gu Chen looked back and smiled at Xiao Dingshan.
After walking for about half an hour, the road barely came to an end, and at this moment, in front of the few of them, there was a huge mansion that seemed to occupy an extremely large area and stretched across the street.
The courtyard wall of the mansion runs from north to south, spreading for many miles, and there is no end in sight as far as the eye can see. In front of the gate of the mansion, there are eight armored guards with lacquered mahogany sticks in their hands, eight of whom are tall and tall, and their eyes are particularly sharp, and they are people who have been practicing martial arts for many years.
Looking up again, at the top of the lacquered red mansion door, a lintel that is one person high and one zhang wide is impressively engraved with several gilded characters of "Prime Minister Yu Mansion". Look at the font dragon flying and phoenix dancing, there is a unique aggressive momentum.
"Huo, the old horseman's house is so magnificent, when will we get this kind of house to live in. Ren Yao looked up at the gilded lintel and exclaimed.
"Hehe, I'm afraid you won't live long, and you will stink of wine and meat. Gu Chen laughed, and then he glanced at Ren Yao and motioned for him to go and call the door.
"What kind of people, the Prime Minister's Mansion, the idle people are waiting to leave as soon as possible. ”
Just when Ren Yao had just taken a few steps forward and had not yet walked to the front of the mansion, the eight armored guards suddenly raised the wooden sticks in their hands, raised their eyebrows coldly, and scolded loudly.
"Hey, the slave family doesn't know where the old man Yu lives, I want you to say, go, tell the old man, and say that the slave family came to find him today, let him open the door, and greet me. Ren Yao stood in front of a few people, crossed his hands on his hips, and immediately looked at those people.
"Huh?"
For a while, those eight people were obviously stunned by his momentum, and after being a guard in the Prime Minister's Mansion for so many years, even Emperor Tianyan didn't have such a big deal here.
"Well, where did the demon woman come from, she dares to go wild again, and advise you to leave quickly, otherwise don't blame our brothers for being ruthless. Among the eight people, the man who seemed to be the leader was slightly stunned, but he also reacted quickly, and then saw him step out violently, his gesture sank, and the wooden stick in his palm suddenly burst into a burst of roaring.
"Uh...... I'm going to go, he, he dared to call Ren Yao Demon Woman, tsk, it's over, his life is over. ”
In the distance, Lu Qi just heard the man's address to Ren Yao, and he couldn't help but be dumbfounded. After her pretty face twitched, she couldn't help but pray secretly for what that person would suffer next.
"Witch, me...... I'm cāo, how the do you dare to say another word?" Sure enough, hearing this, Ren Yao's face suddenly crossed, his red lips opened slightly, and his eyes were full of disbelief.
You can call me a beauty, or you can call me a lady, even a girl. And you black briquette-like subordinate, it's good, a witch who opens her mouth and closes her mouth. Even the boss never said that.
"The eye-opening thing of the dog's day, today the slave family will teach Yu Cang's old horseman, what is called the royal majesty. ”
Airplanes!
The cold sound fell, and I saw a silver flash on his palms hanging from his waist.
Rumble!
The soles of his feet slammed on the ground, wielding the two puppet powers, and rushed straight towards the door of the mansion.
And at this time, when the two puppets that were dancing on Ren Yao's side suddenly appeared, the person who was still clamoring to clean him up before was the one who felt that it was not good.
Having lived in the Prime Minister's Mansion for a long time, how could they not see that this bewitching "woman" is clearly a puppeteer, and in the face of the terrifying coercion released by their hands, where do they still have the slightest sense of confrontation.
Yes, they did practice martial arts, but they were only a little stronger than ordinary people, and it was okay to teach some ruffians and hooligans a lesson, but if they really had to face a puppet master with terrifying strength, I was afraid that they would not even have a chance to escape.
"Grandma...... Grandma spares her life. ”
"Grandma? Who the is your grandma...... Die to Lao Tzu. ”
Ren Yao's anger intensified, his body stretched out in mid-air, and the majestic puppet power in his palms became even more turbulent.
His eyes were cold, his palms waved suddenly, and suddenly, the two puppets like death sickles swept towards the eight people at a rapid pace.
