Yang Chen held the soft blue veil and smiled as he watched Concubine Yan's figure gradually retreat.
"I will treasure your things!"
Hearing Yang Chen's words, the retreating Concubine Yan paused slightly and her face turned even redder.
However, her figure did not stop and quickly disappeared.
Only a faint fragrance was left in the air.
Seeing that Consort Yan had left, Yang Chen's eyes lit up.
Since Lady Yan had come to test him, it was obvious that the Yin-Yang School had noticed him.
Perhaps it wasn't just the Yin-Yang School. The other factions had probably noticed him as well. It was just that they hadn't taken any action yet or were secretly observing him.
Yang Chen smiled faintly. So what if he noticed? He did not care.
He didn't think too much about it and put away the official token that Concubine Yan had left on the ground. He didn't plan to taste the wine and returned to the manor.
Not long after, Yang Chen arrived at the entrance of the mansion.
"General, you're finally back!"
When the servant, Ah Cai, who was guarding the door saw Yang Chen return, he was overjoyed.
"What's wrong? Is there anything going on in the residence these few days?"
Yang Chen glanced at him and said.
"General, you don't know, but on the second day after you left, many lords came to visit you…"
Ah Cai told Yang Chen about the situation in the residence over the past few days.
"General, these are the names of the lords who have come to visit. Other than some lords, there are also some people who have no status in the pugilistic world who have come to visit.”
As Ah Cai spoke, he handed a bamboo scroll to Yang Chen.
Yang Chen nodded slightly. This guy was a little startled.
He immediately took the bamboo slip and quickly glanced at it.
There were many officials written on it, but most of them were officials with lower positions than Yang Chen. There were civil officials and generals.
Most of them were generals.
Hmm?
Very quickly, Yang Chen saw the three words 'Prime Minister Lyu' written on it.
"Prime Minister Lu also sent people over?"
Yang Chen asked Ah Cai.
"Yes, General. Prime Minister Lu sent a servant to invite General to the banquet at the Prime Minister's residence. As General has left the residence, this lowly one asked him to pass on the message to Prime Minister Lu!”
Yang Chen nodded. He hadn't expected Lu Buwei to invite him to a banquet.
Although he was quite famous now, he was very clear about his current situation.
Although his rank and official position were not too low, his rank had already reached the high rank and his official position had already reached the general level, allowing him to lead an army.
However, compared to Lu Buwei, who was in charge of the military and political power of the entire Qin country, he was still too far away.
Putting aside the fact that Lu Buwei was already a marquis and a prime minister, there were countless officials who had been personally promoted by Lu Buwei.
There were also many officials and generals who relied on his power.
Even the old general Meng Ao was very close to Lu Buwei.
Apart from the court, the local government, and the military, he had over a thousand followers!
This kind of power, in the Qin country, other than the King of Qin, no one could compare to him.
He even had a force that no one knew about and was secretly cultivating.
His power and wealth could be said to be monstrous!
The current Yang Chen could be said to be penniless compared to him.
However, as long as he could make more contributions and continue to increase his rank and official position, his status and power would definitely rise faster.
Yang Chen sat down in the hall and continued to look down.
Eh?
Yang Chen's eyes lit up again!
Ge Nia?
Ge Nie, the successor of Phantom Valley, had actually come to his residence?
"General, this person is a little strange. I thought he was a swordsman and wanted to become a guest of the manor, but he said he wasn't here to join the general and refused to reveal his identity.”
Ah Cai looked at Yang Chen's eyes as he read the name on the bamboo slip.
"Hehe, he is not an ordinary swordsman. How could he easily join someone else's sect?”
Yang Chen smiled faintly.
It was a pity that he did not meet this guy. He did not know where this guy had gone.
He quickly finished reading the names on the bamboo slips. After pondering for a moment, Yang Chen picked out a list of names and handed it to Ah Cai. He asked him to inform the officials and generals according to the list and prepare to invite them to a banquet as a return gift.
Ah Cai nodded seriously and went to prepare.
Just as Yang Chen was preparing to meditate for a while.
"General, there is a general who calls himself Wang Jian and a few soldiers outside the residence who have come to visit you.”
Another servant reported.
"Oh? Wang Jian? Let them in!"
Yang Chen said with a smile when he heard that it was Wang Jian and the others.
Soon, Wang Jian and the five soldiers arrived in the hall in light armor.
"Greetings, General!"
The six of them bowed respectfully to Yang Chen.
"Brothers, there's no need to be so polite.”
Yang Chen looked at them and smiled. He gestured for them to sit on both sides.
"Thank you, General!"
The few of them did not decline and sat on both sides with smiles.
Yang Chen was quite happy when he saw the few of them coming.
These people were the 200 - 500 lords and marquises under his command during the attack on Shangdang not long ago!
Now, these people were already military marquises in the army.
As for Wang Jian, following Yang Chen, he had also obtained many battle merits. He was recommended by Yang Chen to Wang He, who then recommended him to the King of Qin, and was promoted to the rank of Military Marquis.
Now that the war was over, the military power was taken back!
In theory, although Yang Chen's official rank was higher than theirs, he could not order or mobilize them.
Now that the few of them had come to his residence, it was obvious that these fellows did not only admire him. They probably had other intentions.
As Yang Chen was thinking, he asked the servants to serve wine.
Everyone chatted while drinking.
Everyone knew each other, so the atmosphere was very lively.
After drinking and chatting for quite a while, Wang Jian and the other six suddenly looked at each other in unison.
The few of them nodded at the same time and then put down the wine glasses in their hands.
Yang Chen, who was sitting on the seat of honor, looked at the actions of the six people, and his eyes flickered.
