Tian Shenglan, who was very angry, came out of Liang's house and took a sedan directly back to Tian's house.
The sedan stopped outside the gate of Tian's mansion.
"Master, you are finally back." Butler Tian, who had been guarding the gate of Tian's mansion, hurriedly came over to greet him.
The bearer lifted up the sedan curtain, and Tian Shenglan walked out of the sedan. She looked at the housekeeper beside her, frowned, and asked, "Something happened at home?"
"We have a guest at home." Butler Tian whispered, while looking around.
Seeing Butler Tian's cautious look, Tian Shenglan said in a bad tone: "As a thief, it's really useless to have such a sinister look on your face."
Butler Tian looked innocent after being scolded.
Based on his understanding of Tian Shenglan, he knew without asking that he must have been angry at the Liang family and took it out on himself.
In the past, he would laugh carefully and let Tian Shenglan spread his anger. However, this time he did not do that. Instead, he whispered: "Master, the guests coming this time are unusual. You'd better go and meet them first!"
"Unusual?" Tian Shenglan's eyes turned around on the face of the butler in front of him.
Butler Tian nodded slightly and said, "Master, you will know it when you see it."
"Take me to see what kind of unusual guest this is." Tian Shenglan walked up the steps in front of Tian's mansion and finally entered the courtyard.
Butler Tian walked beside him.
After arriving in the courtyard, Housekeeper Tian whispered: "The owner of the Wang family in Yanqing is here, and with him are the slaves and thieves from Liaodong."
hiss!
Tian Shenglan took a breath and stopped at the same time.
Looking sideways at Butler Tian, he said: "You don't want your life. Why did you let the slave thief into the house? If anyone finds out, they will all lose their heads."
As he spoke, he placed his hand across his neck and made a stimulating motion.
"The younger one didn't know about it at first. He thought he was a business partner brought by Boss Wang. By the time he found out, everyone had already entered our house." Butler Tian looked bitter.
I also regretted in my heart that I shouldn't have recruited slaves and thieves into my yard.
"If Wang Dengku asks, just say that I was away and went outside the city." Tian Shenglan turned around and walked back.
Butler Tian smiled bitterly and said: "Master, even if we escape this time, Boss Wang and the others will inevitably come again. The more times they come, the more they come, one day they will show their feet and it will be even more troublesome."
Tian Shenglan, who was walking out, heard this and retracted his legs, turned around, frowned and said, "You mean I have to see them?"
"Master, you can't hide by hiding. It's better to meet them and find out their purpose of coming to our Tian family. Even if you don't want to get involved with the slave thieves, you can still take precautions in advance." Butler Tian said.
Tian Shenglan fell into deep thought.
After a while, he said: "It's a blessing, not a curse. Let's go and see them."
Saying that, he walked forward.
"I'll show you the way, little one." Butler Tian walked aside to lead the way for Tian Shenglan.
The Tian family has a hall dedicated to entertaining guests, and Wang Dengku and others were arranged in the main room used by the Tian family to entertain guests.
Arriving outside the hall door, Butler Tian whispered: "Master, when we go in soon, we can't call them slaves and thieves anymore. Now that the Jin people are powerful in Liaodong, we don't need to offend them with a title."
"Okay, let's go in!" Tian Shenglan opened the door of the main room and stepped in.
As soon as the door opened, everyone inside looked towards the door.
Tian Shenglan looked around the main room and saw several people in the room. In addition to Wang Denku's familiar face, there were also several unfamiliar faces.
These faces were all dressed in Han Chinese attire, and there was no sign of slaves or thieves at all. If it hadn't been for the butler's reminder, he would never have thought that there were slaves and thieves in them.
"Master Tian." Wang Dengku, who was sitting in the room, stood up and cupped his hands towards Tian Shenglan.
There was also a Han man in the room wearing a long gown. At this time, he also stood up and made the same gesture of cupping his hands.
Tian Shenglan walked a few steps with a smile on her face, came to Wang Dengku, and said with a smile: "I really have something to do. I didn't know that Boss Wang was coming, and I kept Boss Wang waiting for a long time."
"I was in a hurry and disturbed Mr. Tian." Wang Dengku responded with a smile.
Tian Shenglan looked away from Wang Denku, looked at the Han man wearing a long gown and asked curiously: "I wonder who this is..."
"Your Excellency, Li Ping, I have long heard of the name of the owner of the land and came here to pay my respects." The Han man named Li Ping said with his hands raised.
Tian Shenglan heard the other person's self-introduction and looked at the other person's appearance. He was completely Han, which was completely different from what his butler said.
Thinking of this, he turned around and asked the butler behind him.
Butler Tian nodded slightly towards him.
Tian Shenglan looked at Li Ping again, trying to see the traces of slave thieves on him.
"But what's wrong with you?" Li Ping noticed Tian Shenglan's eyes looking over him and couldn't help but ask.
Tian Shenglan said hesitantly: "Before I came, I heard from the servants at home that Boss Wang had brought some special guests, so I took a few more glances. Don't blame me."
"This is what Boss Tian wants to say!" Li Ping lifted the hat on his head with his hand and put it aside.
At this time, he had a bald head and a long, thin braid on the back of his head.
"This..." Tian Shenglan took a step back subconsciously.
I already knew it before I came here, but when I saw it with my own eyes, I still felt panicked.
"Don't get me wrong, Mr. Tian. I am indeed a Han, but a Han from Dajin." Li Ping said in a calm tone, as if he was talking about an ordinary thing.
Tian Shenglan hesitated for a moment and then said: "Given the relationship between Ming and Dajin, Mr. Li really shouldn't come, let alone come to my house."
"Don't worry, Mr. Tian, no one knows my identity. If I hadn't taken off the hat on my head, Mr. Tian probably wouldn't have been able to tell me my identity!" Li Ping said with a smile.
As he spoke, he put his hat on the table beside him.
There is a lot of hair hidden in the hat. When worn on the top of the head, as long as it does not move, it is indeed difficult for others to guess Li Ping's identity, especially since Li Ping himself is Han Chinese.
"Master Tian, please take your seat first!" Wang Dengku said from the side.
Tian Shenglan came back to her senses, nodded and said: "Yes, take a seat first, butler, go prepare tea."
Butler Tian, who was standing behind, retreated from the room.
Several people sat down again.
"Actually, I came here this time because I needed Boss Tian's help for something, so I had no choice but to ask Boss Wang to bring me to Boss Tian's house." Li Ping said.
"I don't know what happened!" Tian Shenglan said.
Li Ping said: "It's a good thing. My master asked me to come here to help the land owner make a fortune. I hope the land owner can come forward as soon as possible."
