034
After entering the mansion, Wang Yun was originally going to give up the main seat, but Lu Qing said that he could not overshadow the main seat, so he finally sat on the lower side.
As the banquet began, the two of them talked about some unimportant things, but suddenly Wang Yun smiled and said,
"Lord Marquis, my adopted daughter has good zither skills. When she heard that Lord Marquis had come today, she was eager to play a song for Lord Marquis.”
Lu Qing's eyes flashed when he heard this. Wang Yun was indeed good at seeking favors. In his eyes, he was no less than General He Jin and the Ten Attendants.
Therefore, he did not want to waste this opportunity. He was prepared to curry favor with Lu Qing. Clearly, he wanted to gain a future.
That was why he had decisively brought out his adopted daughter, Diao Chan. It must be known that heroes could not resist a beauty.
As Wang Yun clapped his hands, a woman with a graceful figure appeared behind the veil opposite Lu Qing.
Her slender fingers began to stroke the zither, and then the melodious sound of the zither rang out.
Lu Qing didn't know much about music, but he couldn't help but think that it sounded good.
As the song came to an end, Wang Yun gave a look to the servant girl beside him and slowly removed the gauze.
When the veil was removed, Lu Qing finally saw Diao Chan's lineup.
"Hiss!"
Although Lu Qing was already prepared because he had seen Cai Yan before, he still exclaimed after seeing it with his own eyes.
As expected of Diao Chan, one of the four beauties of ancient and modern times. Her appearance was no joke!
Suddenly, Lu Qing was filled with pride. He was not a pretentious person. He was from the modern era and was even more direct than the people of this era.
Moreover, since he had come to this era, he could not use the rules of modern people to restrict himself. Therefore, Lu Qing decided that he must obtain this woman!
After all, he was the current Youzhou Provincial Governor, the Duke of Liaodong! His status was extremely noble. Only a woman like this could match his status.
"This little girl Diao Chan greets Lord Marquis.”
Diao Chan looked at Lu Qing with surprise in her eyes.
Although she was Wang Yun's adopted daughter in name, in fact, Wang Yun had already treated her as a tool ever since she first appeared.
Although the Wang Clan treated her sincerely, she also knew that she would be given to a big shot one day in exchange for the future of the Wang Clan.
Now that this big shot had appeared, Diao Chan even wanted to cry tears of joy. After all, the big shots she used to think of were all pot-bellied old men.
However, the Lu Qing in front of him was not only young and heroic, but he also held a high position and was a major official of a territory.
The heavens were so kind to her!
What happened next was simple. Under Wang Yun's deliberate push, Lu Qing had no intention of refusing, so Diao Chan was given to Lu Qing.
From this, it could be seen that Wang Yun really treated Diao Chan as a tool. After all, if she was really his daughter, he would not simply give her away. Instead, he would marry her officially.
However, seeing how sensible Wang Yun was, Lu Qing also agreed to seek a future for him.
With his current status, as long as he offered some benefits, he could easily get Wang Yun a good official position from the imperial court.
The next day, Lu Qing left with the Youzhou Army. He left Luoyang on the grounds that he was the Youzhou Provincial Governor and that the foreign tribes might invade after the autumn harvest.
After Lu Qing left, Wang Yun got what he wanted and was promoted to one of the nine ministers!
This made Wang Yun extremely excited, because when it came to the nine ministers, as long as one of the three dukes retreated, he would have the opportunity to take over.
If he were to exchange for this official position, the price Lu Qing had to pay was just some gold, silver, and treasures seized from the Yellow Turban thieves. These were useless to Lu Qing, but they were very useful to He Jin and Zhang Rang, who were frantically trying to rope in people.
Therefore, the position of the nine ministers was naturally taken.
From then on, Diao Chan had nothing to do with the Wang family. This official position was enough to repay Wang Yun's kindness in raising Diao Chan.
On the way to Youzhou Province, Lu Qing and the others were in a hurry.
However, when they returned, there were two more carriages in the army. One was for Lu Qing and Diao Chan, and the other was for Guo Jia because he was not in good health.
At first, Lu Qing was embarrassed because he had been riding his own horse when he went to war.
However, Guo Jia told Lu Qing that this was fine. In fact, it was better to do this more so that the soldiers could recognize Lu Qing as their lord.
Lu Qing also understood Guo Jia's meaning. He wanted him to be a little more aloof. After all, if he was too familiar with the soldiers, it was inevitable that some people would not listen to him.
"Lord Marquis, what is Youzhou like?”
In the carriage, Lu Qing leaned on Diao Chan's thigh and enjoyed her care. He felt very satisfied.
"Youzhou? That was a place famous for its bitter cold in the Great Han Dynasty, but it should have changed a lot by now.”
Lu Qing said with a smile. Before he left, he had already given instructions on many plans. After that, he even sent Xi Zhicai back. The current Youzhou should have changed a lot.
Diao Chan nodded, her eyes filled with excitement.
Not only did she gain freedom, she even became the woman of the governor of Youzhou, the Marquis of Liaodong.
To put it bluntly, she would be one of the noblest people across Youzhou Province from now on. How could Diao Chan not be thrilled?
After all, everyone had vanity, especially women in this era. They relied on men to live.
Time passed day by day. After half a month, the army finally returned to Youzhou, and this was because they were all cavalry.
After a few trips, Lu Qing had decided to build roads. Otherwise, it would be inconvenient to travel.
After all, he had to build a road before he could get rich. In the future, he had to at least build a broad road in Youzhou Province!
