Lu Chen got up and took Ji Tong out of the side hall. Liu Jing and Feng Huai naturally followed Lu Chen. When they arrived at the door of the mansion, they saw that Su Dingfang was already waiting with a group of back Wei guards. Here, final inspections of the boxes on each carriage are being made.
"Master!" Seeing Lu Chen walking out of the gate, Su Dingfang led the Bei Wei Guards to salute Lu Chen directly.
"Are you all ready?" Lu Chen waved his hand to show off his courtesy, then looked at Su Dingfang and asked.
"Back to you, sir, everything is ready!" Su Dingfang responded.
"Then let's go!" Under Liu Jing's service, Lu Chen turned over and rode on the back of the white fox. Su Dingfang and others also mounted their horses. Lu Chen led the team and slowly left Lujiazhuang.
When they arrived at the gate of Chang'an City, the soldiers guarding the city naturally knew the Duke of Chang'an County. What's more, there was a lot of talk in Chang'an City about the "good manly" of the County Duke. Although the soldiers guarding the city seemed to be still He was very respectful, but his eyes were more or less twinkling, but Lu Chen didn't care at all.
After a routine check of the boxes on the carriage, Lu Chen led the convoy into Chang'an City. Naturally, he was inevitably talked about by others on the way. Lu Chen still looked as if he was gone, even though Lu Chen also told Su Dingfang and others There is no need to pay attention to this matter, but these people still feel a little suffocated.
"Don't be upset about this. I don't care, so you don't have to care either!" Lu Chen naturally noticed the behavior of his subordinates and said with a smile.
"Yes!" Everyone responded, but the tone still sounded a little aggrieved. Lu Chen couldn't say anything more, he just smiled faintly and continued to lead the team forward.
"Oops! Why did the Patriarch's Mansion look like this?" Lu Chen originally wanted to go straight to the Imperial City, but in order to see the excitement of Yin Ashu's Patriarch's Mansion, Lu Chen deliberately took a detour. At that time, Lu Chen was sitting upright on the white fox, looking at Yin Ashu's mansion on the side of the road, showing surprise.
At this time, servants were coming in and out of Yin Ashu's house, constantly carrying some things out and putting them on the bullock cart outside the door. Many of the items were burnt and had been scorched black, and they were all burnt. The smell spread in the streets.
Lu Chen pretended to be disgusted and took out his brocade handkerchief to cover his mouth and nose, looking at the servants coming in and out.
The person directing these servants to work was the housekeeper of Yin Ashu's house. Hearing someone's strange words, he immediately turned his head to look at the source of the sound. When he saw clearly that it was Lu Chen sitting on the horse, His face suddenly changed slightly, and he immediately turned his head away, as if he hadn't seen Lu Chen, and continued to direct his servants to work.
"Who is that! My father-in-law is asking you something!" Lu Chen naturally saw the butler's expression and winked at Su Dingfang beside him. Su Dingfang looked directly at Ji Tong. Ji Tong nodded slightly and said directly shouted at the butler.
"How unbecoming is it to shout in front of the Guozhang's house!" The housekeeper naturally knew that Ji Tong was calling him. He originally thought that Lu Chen was passing by. Although the other party said something weird, he just wanted to think of it as someone who was passing by. He didn't hear it, and he didn't see it being mixed up. After all, the last time his master Yin Ah Shu came to the palace to sue Lu Chen, he came back disappointed.
After that incident, these people all understood that the Chang'an County Lord was not someone they could offend. In addition, Concubine Yin Defi later sent people to Lujiazhuang to ask for the so-called "dressing table" from Lu Chen, but Lu Chen ignored them. After ruthlessly blasting out the Lujiazhuang, this group of people understood even more that Lu Chenna really didn't give any face to the Yin family.
Now that Ji Tong has called him by name, the housekeeper can only bite the bullet and come to Lu Chen, but he still has to scold Ji Tong to show the status of their so-called "Guo Zhang's Mansion" majesty.
"What kind of behavior do you have to yell in front of me!?" He scolded his subordinates in front of him. If Lu Chen could bear it, he wouldn't be Lu Chen. What's more, Lu Chen is here just to watch jokes. Yes, even though this joke was also made by his subordinates, Lu Chen directly scolded the butler.
"I've met Mr. Lu!" Although the housekeeper felt unhappy after being scolded by Lu Chen, he still respectfully saluted Lu Chen. The main thing was that Mr. Lu "thrown people away" at the slightest disagreement. , this housekeeper still vividly remembers how those servants and yard workers were thrown in front of his house last time.
"Yes!" Lu Chen nodded lightly, "I ask you, what are you doing? Are you going to renovate it?" Lu Chen put his hands on the saddle, leaned forward slightly, and looked down at the people standing there. The housekeeper in front of him asked directly, pretending to be confused.
"Young master, you are joking!" The housekeeper looked at Lu Chen's expression and felt as disgusted as if he had eaten a fly. However, he could not offend the county man in front of him, so he could only reply with a smile, "This is not a leak in the house last night. , are you transporting those damaged things out of the city to dispose of them today?" the housekeeper explained patiently.
"Oh! This is so unfortunate!" Lu Chen said in a feigned surprise, and Lu Chen's words directly reached the ears of Yin Ashu who stepped out of the mansion, "Could it be that he did something that would make people angry?" Did you suffer retribution?" From the corner of his eye, Lu Chen naturally noticed Yin Ah Shu stepping out, so he directly raised his voice and said.
"Mr. Lu, if you slander me like this, I will go to court with you!" Yin Ashu naturally heard Lu Chen's sarcasm, and suddenly came to Lu Chen with some annoyance and said with a gloomy face.
"Isn't this Yin Guozhang! I have met Yin Guozhang!" Lu Chen still sat upright on the horse and casually retaliated with a punch at Yin Ashu.
"No, I don't dare to accept the courtesy of County Duke Lu!" Yin Ashu glared at Lu Chen angrily, "I just accidentally broke into the house yesterday, and County Duke Lu slandered me and did something outrageous. I have to pay retribution for this matter. County Master Lu should give me an explanation for this matter, right?" Yin Ashu raised his head and stared at Lu Chen and said angrily.
"Oh, I just said it casually, why should Yin Guozhang take it seriously? If there is any way to offend Yin Guozhang, I hope Yin Guozhang will forgive you!" Lu Chen directly raised his hand to Yin Ashu and said, "I I have something else to do, so I won't delay here! Farewell!" After Lu Chen said this, he shook the reins of the horse, regardless of Yin Ashu's expression, and rode away past Yin Ashu, directly brushing off Yin Ashu's angry beard. Shaking.
On the one hand, Yin Ah Shu left because Lu Chen ignored him, and on the other hand, he heard a verse of doggerel left by Lu Chen before he left: "Abiding by the law makes you depressed in the morning, strong beams sing for joy every night, riding a mule for self-interest at the expense of others, honest and fair starving "Building bridges and repairing roads is blind, and there are many murders and arson. I went to heaven to ask the ancestors, and the Taoist ancestors said: I can't do anything either!"
Lu Chen said that this limerick was just a whim. He remembered the setting poem of a cross talk master in later generations. He felt that this setting poem was very suitable for the occasion. Lu Chen recited it directly, but changed it at the end. Two words.
Lu Chen sat on the back of the white fox, and walked away while shaking his head, leaving behind such a limerick.
"My lord, have you really met Taoist ancestors?" After hearing Lu Chen's limerick, Liu Jing couldn't help but blinked and asked his lord in a low voice.
"Tao Ancestor?" Lu Chen turned to look at Liu Jing and pretended to be profound. Liu Jing looked at Lu Chen expectantly.
"How could I have seen it! If I had seen Dao Ancestor, could I still be here in this world?" Lu Chen glared at Liu Jing directly, "I don't think about gods and immortals all day long. You have to rely on yourself. Do you know that it is said that 'man can conquer heaven'?"
As they spoke, they had already arrived at the street corner, and the convoy was divided into two parts. One part was led by Lu Chen and went straight to the imperial city, while the other part followed Su Dingfang and Ji Tong, first to Li Xiuning's princess mansion, and then to the others. Lu Chen sent the share to the palace first, and then went to Li Xiaogong. In addition to sending the share money, Lu Chen also had something to discuss with Li Xiaogong.
Lu Chen led the convoy directly to the gate of the Imperial City. It was a coincidence that the person responsible for guarding the gate of the Imperial City today was still Chang He, the commander of the imperial army.
"Mr. Lu, you're fine!" Seeing Lu Chen, Chang He hurried up to say hello.
"Commander Chang, look at your glowing face. Are you about to be promoted after the new year?" Lu Chen got off his horse and joked with Chang He. According to the normal historical process, this commander Chang is about to become a member of the Xuanwu Sect after the new year. He became a garrison officer and took up the post of Zhonglang General.
"Master, how did you know?" Chang He was stunned when he heard Lu Chen's words. After all, not many people knew about this matter.
"Looking at your rosy face, either my wife is happy or you are going to be promoted. However, it is unlikely that my wife will be happy at this time of year, so it is designated that you are going to be promoted!" Lu Chen looked at Chang He and said with a smile.
"Mr. Lu really has a sharp eye!" Chang He was a little shocked when he heard Lu Chen's analysis, but he still smiled and flattered Lu Chen.
"It's all just speculation!" Lu Chen waved his hand directly, "I came to the palace this time to deliver something to His Majesty and the Crown Prince. Commander Chang, can you please inform me?" Lu Chen looked at Chang He and said with a smile.
"I'm here to inform you, please go check it out!" Chang He saluted Lu Chen directly and said, "It's a routine matter, I hope you can forgive me!"
"It should be!" Lu Chen didn't care about the inspection and just nodded with a smile.
Several Imperial Guardsmen went over to inspect the carriage, while Chang He quickly led the people into the imperial city and asked the chamberlain to report that Lu Chen was outside seeking an audience.
When Chang He came back, the inspections of several forbidden soldiers were completed. After seeing Chang He, the expressions of several forbidden soldiers were somewhat unnatural.
"What? Is there a problem?" Chang He looked at the several forbidden soldiers and asked in confusion.
