A Scary Old Man, Why Is He Here?
"In accordance with the emperor's edict."
In the Duke of Liang's estate, the voice of a eunuch with a croaky voice could be heard. The Duke of Liang, Lan Yu, was kneeling on the ground with an extremely respectful expression.
When all the voices fell, Lan Yu's face revealed an unconcealable excitement.
"Has the emperor approved the memorial?"
"Yes, Duke of Liang. The Emperor is kind enough to feel that it would be uncomfortable for you to retire and return to your hometown. Other than your other family businesses, he also left you two manors in the northern suburbs. Of course, this Duke of Liang Manor is also yours.”
"His Majesty also said that he would treat people who know how to advance and retreat well.”
"Duke of Liang, take care."
The eunuch with the croaky voice smiled. Lan Yu hurriedly waved her hand and instructed the butler to follow. She handed some money to the eunuch without leaving a trace.
After everyone left, Lan Yu returned to her room and closed her eyes.
For some reason, ever since the Emperor approved his request, he felt a rare sense of comfort and relaxation.
After a long time, a smile appeared on his face.
"Zhu Yu is right, Zhu Yu is absolutely right.”
"What do you mean Zhu Yu is right? Uncle, what did you say?"
At this moment, he suddenly opened his eyes and realized that someone had appeared beside him. This person was the founding duke, Chang Sheng.
When did this guy get so close to him? He actually didn't notice it at all?
It seems that my tense nerves at that moment have really completely relaxed
"When did you arrive? Why is there no sound?"
"Hehehe, I came long ago. The sound of my footsteps was quite loud. I thought you heard it and deliberately closed my eyes to rest.”Chang Sheng grinned. He seemed to be in a good state.
"Looking at you, the old man has also sent you the imperial edict, right?”
"Your guess is correct!"
Chang Sheng nodded heavily and said with a slightly excited expression,""I thought that the Emperor would take away all of my family business, but who knew that he would leave me a lot.”
"The emperor really didn't kill us all and left us some leeway.”
"Zhu Yu, this brat's predictions are not wrong at all."
Lan Yu's eyes flashed as she muttered to herself.
"What?"
"Uncle, I've heard you say that Zhu Yu is right since I came in. What do you mean by that?”
"What did this kid say to you?”
Chang Sheng's interest was immediately piqued. If he remembered correctly, Lan Yu had mentioned this person before and even said that it was Zhu Yu who gave him the idea?
Now, there seemed to be something else he had not said.
"This kid said that if we take the initiative to admit defeat to the old man, the old man will definitely forgive us and keep some of the family business we handed over.”
"Hey!"
"According to what Uncle said, this kid is a capable person."
Chang Sheng was extremely interested.
However, this was not the end.
Lan Yu turned to Chang Sheng and continued,""Do you know what this means?”
"What does that mean?"
"This means that we still have a chance to make a comeback in the future!”
Weng!
Chang Sheng's eyes widened.
Who didn't want to make a comeback? Becoming a general, they definitely wanted to!
"Could it be that this kid called Zhu Yu also said these words?”
"That's right! It's him!"
"Otherwise, do you think I would listen to his idea, although I admit that I was gambling.”
"But now…"
"Two of his words have come true, and the only thing that hasn't come true is his comeback. However, I have a feeling that perhaps it won't be long before everything comes true!”
As he spoke, his eyes flickered with hope.
As a general, he naturally wasn't willing to retire and return to the fields. If he could lead his troops to fight against the foreign tribes of Mengyuan again, the blood would reignite.
"This person is quite interesting!"
Chang Sheng slowly came back to his senses. He reached out and grabbed Lan Yu's shoulder."Uncle, you said you wanted to introduce us to each other. Where does Zhu Yu live?”
"Lotus Flower Alley, third row, first door.”
"Hehe, since I have no official position now and have nothing to do, I'll go and visit this person who gave us advice and saved us.”
"I have to thank you properly."
As he spoke, he ran away quickly.
When Lan Yu saw this, she frowned and said,"Stinky brat, let's go together."
”
However, before he could finish speaking, Chang Sheng, the founding duke, was nowhere to be seen.
Lan Yu smiled bitterly and continued,"Forget it, I'll prepare a generous gift before going tomorrow. Chang Sheng is right, I have to thank Zhu Yu properly.”
.......
Two hours later.
Chang Sheng came to Lotus Alley with some things in his hands. He shifted his head and looked left and right to find the first house in the third row.
"We're here. It's here."
When he saw Zhu Yu's residence, his heart thumped wildly.
"I heard from my uncle that this person seems to be an expert."
"Although I inherited the title of the founding duke, there are some things in the court that I can't see clearly. If I can get Zhu Yu's guidance in the future, that would be wonderful.”
Thinking of this, he lowered his head and looked at the gift in his hand.
In order to leave a good impression on Zhu Yu, he had taken a top-grade jade pendant from the residence and carefully selected some pastries.
"Let's go!"
"Let's meet!"
As he spoke, he walked to the door. He couldn't help but exclaim in surprise,"The door of the house isn't closed?"
When he stepped into the house, he looked around and finally saw a person lying on a strange chair in the courtyard.
He looked like an old man and said,"Sir, is Zhu Yu home?”
"Hmm?"
Zhu Yuanzhang, who had his eyes closed, opened them and turned to look at Chang Sheng, who was standing in front of the house with a gift in hand.
Weng!
When he saw the person lying on the chair clearly, Chang Sheng's head was in a daze. It buzzed and he felt like it was going to explode!
"Your Majesty. This?"
Chang Sheng?
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at him expressionlessly and asked the unexpected guest,""Why are you looking for him?"
"It's nothing."
"I'm just here to pay a visit."
Chang Sheng was now like a mouse that had met a cat. He was so scared that he took a few steps back, and his words were also intermittent.
"Oh, he's not at home."
"If you're not at home, that kid will come and visit again in the future.”Chang Sheng gulped.
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and closed his eyes to enjoy the last bit of sunlight.
Seeing this.
Chang Sheng didn't dare to disturb them or make a sound. He respectfully put down the gifts that he had carefully prepared in his hands and then left the house with light footsteps.
As soon as he left the house, he ran into a corner with a face full of horror.
His chest began to rise and fall rapidly, and he panted heavily. It was obvious that he was frightened.
"Why is the old man here?"
"Frightening!"
"This is too scary!"
