After playing with Princess Changle for a while, Li Chuan left.
Now that Li Er's status had improved, although he had not ascended the throne, his power had already been established.
He couldn't enter Li Er's harem as he pleased as he did before to avoid criticism, so he rejected the young princess's repeated invitations.
Moreover, he was also very curious about the house that Li Er gave him.
As soon as he walked out of the Eastern Palace, Li Chuan saw Xu De, the head of Li Er's residence, waiting there. This was probably Li Er's order.
"Xu De greets Young Master." When Xu De saw Li Chuan, his face was filled with respect as he bowed to Li Chuan with a smile.
"Who is Chief Manager Xu waiting for?" Li Chuan asked with a smile.
"Young Master must be joking. I am naturally following His Highness 'orders to respectfully send Young Master back to the residence.”
Xu De knew how much His Highness valued Li Chuan, so he did not dare to be disrespectful.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, General Manager Xu." Li Chuan cupped his hands in thanks.
"Young Master, why are you like this? If Young Master doesn't mind calling me by my name, it's fine.”
Xu De could be considered an old fox since he had been by Li Er's side for so many years. It had almost become his instinct to speak human language when he met people and speak nonsense when he met ghosts.
"How can this be done?" Li Chuan smiled and waved his hand.
"Could it be that Young Master despises us as servants?”
Xu De immediately pretended to be angry.
" Hehe…" Li Chuan smiled awkwardly. Servants were also different. Which servant of the past emperors was easy to deal with?
It's better to offend a gentleman than a villain!
He was too lazy to waste time on this form of address, so he called him by his name,"
"I'm afraid of you! Lead the way! Xu De…"
In fact, in this era, only those who were very close to someone would call them by their name. Otherwise, it would be impolite to call them by their names.
" Young Master, please get in the car..." Xu De was all smiles as he bent down and made a welcoming gesture.
" Heh…" Li Chuan followed the direction Xu De was pointing at and indeed saw Li Er's luxury car parked there. It had to be said that this stance was quite intimidating.
Although Li Er was more thoughtful, loved his face, and liked to show off…
However, in order to win over the hearts of the people, this guy was really good at it. He was almost touched.
Li Chuan smiled as he got into the carriage. After he sat down, he shook his head as if he was talking to himself.
If Li Er didn't have this ability, how could he have gathered so many talented generals around him?
This ability was precisely the reason why Li Er could conquer the world and create the rule of Zhenguan.
However, it was the art of controlling people!
He wasn't a pet, so how could he fall for it?
Besides, Li Er was a stingy guy. He had helped him so much, but he only gave him a sinecure, and it was a fifth-grade official.
To be honest, he was still a little unhappy.
A man, a real man. If he couldn't gallop across the world with his golden spears and iron horses, wouldn't he have wasted the heavens to let him come to the Great Tang?
Since Li Er wanted to guard against him and refused to let him lead the army, he could only take the unconventional path.
"Young Master, we're here."
Just as Li Chuan was lost in his thoughts, the carriage stopped. Xu De's voice interrupted Li Chuan's thoughts.
"Yes."
Li Chuan nodded, gathered his thoughts, and walked out of the carriage.
After getting off the carriage, Li Chuan immediately saw that the mansion was indeed magnificent. The gatehouse was tall. Although it did not have the style of a royal palace, it was definitely one of the best mansions in Chang 'an.
Tsk tsk…
Li Er was really willing to spend money. Just this mansion was definitely worth a lot!
Thinking of this, Li Chuan remembered that Wang Junkuo seemed to have given him a priceless Cat's Eye Stone.
Two rows of warriors in casual clothes stood outside the gate. They had long swords on their waists and sharp eyes. Li Chuan could tell at a glance that these guys were definitely the warriors selected by the army.
When they saw Li Chuan, they bowed respectfully.
Li Chuan also nodded slightly in greeting as if he was the host.
"Xu De, let's go in and have a drink together to show our hospitality as hosts.”
Then, he looked at Xu De beside him and asked with a smile.
"Young Master, I still have to return to the palace to report to His Highness. How about I come back another day to disturb Young Master?”
Xu De had a smile on his face as he rejected him very subtly.
"Then it's a deal."
Li Chuan didn't force him. Xu De was a sensible person. There were many people around, and his identity was very special. It was indeed not appropriate for him to have too much contact with foreign officials. Otherwise, how could Li Er allow him to continue staying by his side?
"I'll take my leave first."
Xu De cupped his hands and said goodbye.
Li Chuan returned the bow. After watching Xu De and the convoy leave, he swaggered towards the main entrance of the mansion.
A gentle breeze blew as he walked inside at a moderate pace.
It had been almost a month since he arrived in the Great Tang, and he finally had a place to settle down.
Looking at the flowers, grass, bricks, and red tiles inside, he felt a little refreshed.
"Welcome back, General."
As he walked into the house, the two rows of warriors who were standing straight saw him walking over and immediately greeted him respectfully in unison.
These people were the guards of his mansion.
Li Chuan nodded. He was calm and composed as if he was taking a stroll in the courtyard. There was a smile on his face that made people feel like they were bathing in the spring breeze as he walked unhurriedly.
After entering the inner courtyard, Li Chuan saw dozens of people dressed as servants standing on both sides. The men were on the left and the women were on the right.
"Welcome back, Master."
Everyone shouted in unison again.
Li Chuan nodded slightly again. The corners of his mouth curled up as he continued to walk toward the inner courtyard hall.
He knew very well in his heart that these people were nominally the servants and guards that Li Er had given him, but he did not know how many of them were spies that Li Er had planted in his residence.
These kings were all like this.
If they didn't do this, they wouldn't feel at ease. Even Li Er wouldn't be spared.
Of course, Li Chuan also knew that he had yet to gain a firm foothold and should not act rashly. In the future, he would not take any of these people and return them all to Li Er.
