The first battle general Wan Yankang returned to the mansion. At the gate, he saw the housekeeper standing at the door waiting with a very anxious look on his face.
The housekeeper saw the master coming back from a distance and ran up quickly.
"Master, you are back!"
"Butler, what's wrong with you today? Why are you standing at the door waiting for me? Is there something wrong?"
The housekeeper looked around, leaned into Wanyankang's ear, and whispered:
"Sir, His Royal Highness the Prince is here. He is drinking tea in the hall and waiting for you."
"ah?"
Wanyankang looked at the housekeeper in shock.
Starting more than ten years ago, Wanyankang and the second prince had become friendly in private and formed a loose interest team. Wanyankang and the eldest prince had no contact with each other.
This was the first time that the eldest prince took the initiative to visit Wanyankang's house.
Wanyankang was stunned for a moment, recovered his mind, and looked at the housekeeper:
"What is he here for?"
"Your Highness didn't say anything, and I didn't dare to ask. After all, he is the eldest prince and the successor in the eyes of the current emperor. I can't drive him away, can I?"
Wanyankang remained silent.
"Master, if you don't want to see him, you don't have to go back home. I'll tell you that you have something to go out and you may not come back today."
Wanyankang hesitated for a moment and said:
"Since he dares to come to my house, why don't I dare to see him? What a joke! I want to see what tricks he comes to play for me. Let's go."
With that said, Wanyankang strode into the mansion.
The eldest prince Wanyan He was drinking tea in the hall. There were two maids and two guards standing in the hall.
"Ouch, Your Highness the Great Prince, why are you here? You are such a rare and distinguished guest. It really makes this old minister's house shine!"
Wan Yankang walked in from outside with a smile on his face.
Wanyanhe put down his teacup and quickly stood up.
"Uncle Kang, my nephew just passed by the palace. I haven't visited your home for more than ten years. I came here specially to sit here. You won't welcome me, right?"
"Haha, look at what His Highness said, you are a distinguished guest. I can't even invite you. I can't even be happy that you are here. Butler, tell the chef to prepare a banquet according to the highest standards to entertain His Highness the Prince."
"yes!"
The butler glanced at the eldest prince, turned and left.
Wanyan He smiled faintly,
"Uncle Kang, you're welcome. I'm just here to sit down. By the way, I have a few words I want to talk to you alone."
Wanyankang nodded and waved to the guards and maids in the hall, and everyone immediately exited the hall.
Wanyankang looked at the eldest prince,
"Your Highness, if you have anything to say, just say it. I am all ears."
Wanyan He stood up and bowed deeply to Wanyan Kang.
Wanyankang was startled and quickly stood up, supporting the eldest prince with both hands.
"Your Highness, what are you doing? You are a prince, isn't this killing an old minister? You can't do it, you can't do it!"
The eldest prince straightened his body, looked up at Wan Yankang, and said very respectfully:
"In terms of seniority, you are my uncle. It is appropriate for a nephew to salute and greet his uncle."
"This, haha"
Wanyankang smiled happily and said quickly:
"Your Highness, please take a seat. I accept your wishes."
Wan Yankang personally picked up the teapot and filled the eldest prince with a cup of tea.
"Tea please!"
The eldest prince picked up the teacup and took a sip.
"Well, good tea. A few days ago, Heavenly Father rewarded me with some fine Yunwu Xueding tea. I have never been willing to drink it. Today I will do a favor and show my filial piety to Uncle Kang."
The eldest prince said, taking out a small green box from the space ring and placing it in front of Wan Yankang's coffee table.
Wanyankang was stunned and looked at the eldest prince.
This Yunwu Xueding tea is the best tea. It grows on the snow peaks of the mountains. This is a very special cold-resistant tea tree species. It is rare and dangerous. It is rich in ice ability. It is very beneficial to assist in improving the practice of ice skills. .
Due to the scarcity of production, even the Flying Leopard Emperor could not get much every year. Only his closest subordinates and princes could get a small box.
Emperor Fei Bao also once rewarded Wanyankang with two small boxes. Wanyankang naturally knew how precious this mountain snow-top tea was.
"Haha, Your Highness, why are you so embarrassed? This is a reward from the emperor, how can I accept it?"
"Uncle Kang, I came to your house empty-handed. Besides, you don't need anything. I'm just a favored person. I don't bring anything with me, which makes me very ashamed!"
Wanyankang no longer postpones,
"Since His Highness said so, it would be unreasonable for me to refuse any more. Okay, I'll give you the tea. Thank you very much."
When the eldest prince saw Wanyankang collecting the tea, he felt relieved and said:
"Uncle Kang, my nephew has been practicing in seclusion at Feibao Academy for more than ten years. He has no time to come to your house to visit you. Please don't be angry with me."
"What are you talking about, Your Highness? Your Highness is born with dignity. It's too late for the old minister to fawn over you."
"Uncle Kang is serious. My father often tells me that you are the number one general in the empire and have done a lot for the empire. He wants me to respect you more and get closer to you. If Uncle Kang doesn't mind, I will still be shameless in the future. I'm disturbing you."
"Haha, welcome, welcome, I wish you all."
"If my nephew does something wrong in the future, please ask Uncle Kang for advice."
"Your Highness is serious. I am an old man. I have experienced a few things at best. I can assist His Highness, but I cannot give you advice."
"Ha ha"
The eldest prince and Wan Yankang continued chatting in the hall for half an hour, chatting here and there and complimenting each other very much, which Wan Yankang was very pleased with.
"Uncle Kang, I still have something to do. I'm leaving now. I'll come visit you another day."
"Your Highness, would you like to stay for a light meal?"
"Next time, I really have something to deal with today. I will come here often in the future, and I will definitely have food for free, haha!"
"Okay, I won't force you. I'll give it to you."
Wanyankang saw the eldest prince to the door.
"Uncle Kang, stay, I'm leaving."
"Okay, Your Highness, please go slowly and see your Highness off!"
Watching the eldest prince leave, Wanyankang let out a long breath.
The housekeeper stood behind him and asked quietly:
"Sir, His Highness left without eating?"
"Haha, where did he come to eat?"
"What about him?"
"Oh, my age has been wasted. The eldest prince is so unfathomable and awesome."
"Ah? Master, why did His Highness come to visit you suddenly?"
"Haha, what do you think?"
"Your Highness is here to show your kindness and hopes to get your help."
"Yes, that's probably what it means."
"But, aren't we with the second prince?"
"Butler, remember, from today on, no matter whether it is the second prince or the eldest prince, we don't care about their affairs. They can fight however they like. We just treat it as watching a show."
"Ah? If the eldest prince wins the throne, will he turn around and deal with us?"
"Haha, if you were a great prince, would you do anything to an old minister at the imperial level?"
"No, I don't dare! With your status, sir, even the Flying Leopard Emperor will respect you three points. But, sir, what do you mean by just saying that the eldest prince is unfathomable?"
Wanyankang looked up at the sky and said quietly:
"A person has been suppressed by you for decades. You unite others to deal with him everywhere, but he comes to your house with a smile on his face and treats you with respect and humility. Isn't such a person scary?"
"Are you talking about His Highness the Great Prince?"
"With his favored status in front of the emperor today, he can still be humble and respectful and humble in front of us. Based on this, he is many times better than the second prince.
I guess the eldest prince is going to take action against the second prince. "
"ah?"
"From now on, when I thank guests behind closed doors, just say that I am practicing in seclusion and will not see guests for the time being, unless the emperor summons me for something."
"The second prince is also missing?"
"not see!"
