Seeing Chang Mao's hesitant expression, the old man started to struggle violently.
"Master! You were brought up by my old slave. I have been running the family for decades, but I have never caused any serious trouble!"
"If the eldest master is still here, he will definitely let me go!"
"Old slave has dedicated his whole life to the Chang family, wuwuwuwu!"
The old man lay limp on the ground, crying hoarsely. The soldiers of the Chang Mansion next to him did not dare to pull the old man down immediately, and could only look at the head of the house, Chang Mao, inquiringly.
Chang Mao's face was full of sadness. His hometown manager had no merit but hard work. Indeed, there had never been any major disasters in Chang's house.
Also, what the old man said really hit Chang Mao. If Chang Yuchun was still here, he would have smiled heartily and then released his old man.
Chang Mao weakly raised his hand and signaled the soldiers to put down his old servant. The strength in his arm relaxed, and ecstasy flashed across his face. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
"Thank you, master! Thank you, master! I'm going to leave now, as far as possible!"
"Walk for what?"
A weak but clear voice sounded behind everyone. The old man's eyes widened as if he were seeing the Lord of Hell, and his face was ashen.
Yang Rong's back felt cold. He turned around and saw a young man in plain clothes standing under the eaves. The young man's eyes were like poisonous snakes. Yang Rong only took one look at him and would never forget him again.
Zhu Yunxi.
"Yunxi, why did you come out?"
"Uncle, the incense is gone. I'll come out and get some."
Lan Yu and Chang Mao looked over and saw that Zhu Yunxi was indeed holding a bundle of incense in his hand. Zhu Yunxi was really passing by.
"Okay, let's take him to Dali Temple."
Zhu Yunxi waved his hand, and the two Changfu soldiers immediately rushed forward again, twisted the old man's butler up, and dragged him out without any hesitation. The old man's chief was like a broken newspaper, and his soul was frightened.
Clang.
Zhu Yunxi returned to the house, closed the door again, and never looked at his hometown boss from beginning to end, as if he accidentally stepped on an ant. Isn't this normal?
Even though his hometown boss had always treated Zhu Yunxi as his ancestor, Zhu Yunxi was not a human being and didn't even have any human touch.
The farce ended abruptly.
Lan Yu looked at Chang Mao, hugged Chang Mao's shoulders, and comforted,
"Okay, uncle will take you to have a drink later."
Chang Mao nodded dejectedly. The incident with his hometown boss really hit him hard.
Yang Rong was shocked on the spot. What frightened him the most was that the entire Chang Mansion, from top to bottom, including the two princes and the soldiers, immediately accepted this outcome.
Zhu Yunxi's words were the final word, and no one, not even his hometown boss, questioned Zhu Yunxi's judgment.
The water in Changfu is really deep.
Yang Rong's hands trembled slightly. He seemed to understand the meaning behind His Majesty's throwing him to the Chang Mansion.
Cultivate oneself, manage one's family, govern the country, and bring peace to the world.
If the Chang family can be cured, then the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty will be no problem.
Moreover, after Yang Rong became so gilded, he became half a regular family member.
His Majesty has good intentions and has high hopes for Yang Rong.
Lan Yu hugged Chang Mao and strode away.
"Uncle, I'm going too."
As soon as he heard that he was about to eat, Chang Sen ran over to follow him. Chang Mao turned around, looked at Yang Rong, and ordered,
"Xiao Yang, please clean up the account book. Thank you for your hard work."
Chang Mao is still worried about keeping the ledger.
"Yes, sir."
Yang Rong bowed and saluted, watching the two princes leave.
Checking old accounts and keeping a ledger is not a problem for Yang Rong.
However, Yang Rong looked at the house with complicated eyes, wondering if he should tell His Highness now,
Yang Rong took two steps toward the room by accident and stopped in front of the door. There was not even a sound in the room. If he hadn't just watched His Highness walk in, he would have thought it was an empty room.
Yang Rong raised his hand and stretched it out,
"Mr. Yang."
Yang Rong's hand shook, turned around, looked at the soldiers of the Chang Mansion, and asked,
"What's up?"
The soldiers of the Chang Mansion said,
"The Minister of Rites wants to see you?"
Yang Rong snorted and said,
"Please come in quickly."
The soldiers of the Chang Mansion were ordered to retreat. Yang Rong glanced at the room with lingering fear. The courage he had just now disappeared in an instant.
After a while, Yang Shiqi walked in. Seeing the orderly appearance of the Chang Mansion, he smiled and said,
"You did a good job."
Yang Rong smiled and shook his head,
"Brother Yang, you are so complimentary."
Yang Rong invited Yang Shiqi into his room, a side room in the courtyard. Yang Shiqi had just asked the soldiers, but Lan Yu and Chang Mao were not there, so he didn't need to visit anymore, so he came directly to see Yang Rong.
Seeing that there was no one around, Yang Shiqi became bolder and asked in a lower voice,
"how do you feel?"
Yang Rong smiled bitterly,
"Only now do I understand His Majesty's deep intentions."
Hearing what Yang Rong said, Yang Shiqi had a look of relief on his face. He was also worried that Yang Rong would be dissatisfied with his current position as the head of the family, and something would happen again. Now it seemed that he was worrying too much.
Yang Shiqi said meaningfully,
"I envy you as a brother. Not only as a brother, but I don't know how many people in this capital envy you. You are now being noticed by all the nobles."
Yang Rong was shocked when he heard this. He only knew that the Chang Mansion was not simple, but he really didn't expect that he was just an ignorant and idle family manager of the Chang Mansion, and he was actually qualified to be noticed by the entire Yingtian Mansion.
Seeing Yang Rong's surprised look, Yang Shiqi smiled and said,
"It's no exaggeration to say that, except for the palace..."
Yang Shiqi stretched out his finger and pointed at his feet,
"This is the Yingtianfu hub."
"hiss!!"
Yang Rong took a breath.
Yang Shiqi lowered his voice a little more and said,
"I heard that the next big move will start from here. If you do a good job, you will have a bright future."
Yang Shiqi looked at Yang Rong enviously, even though Yang Rong was already stunned by the shock.
However, Yang Shiqi has no jealousy towards Yang Rong. If he was jealous of Yang Rong's talent, Yang Shiqi would not take Yang Rong out of Jianzhou Mansion. On the contrary, no matter how good Yang Rong was, Yang Shiqi would be happier.
Yang Rong came back to his senses and looked at Yang Shiqi with grateful eyes.
"Brother Yang..."
He also knew that the earth-shaking changes in his destiny were all because of Brother Yang in front of him. The two had a gang relationship, so the friendship between them was still very deep.
Yang Shiqi waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to say more.
Yang Rong nodded, keeping his gratitude in his heart, and then said softly,
"After seeing His Highness today, I felt something was wrong here."
"Your Highness? Have you met His Highness Zhu Yunxi?"
Yang Shiqi exclaimed.
