In the evening.
In the Su Residence's Chef's Hall.
Young Master Su, who had caused a huge commotion in Jin Ling City, was quietly making dinner.
He was more of a homebody and liked to be alone.
So far, Su Guan was very satisfied with his current life.
"Your Majesty has arrived!"
A sharp eunuch's voice rang out, as if a loudspeaker had been installed, and the voice resounded throughout the entire residence.
Su Guan was stunned. He put down the chopping board and knife in his hand and went to welcome them.
The elegant and cold empress stood quietly in front of the mansion. Her skin was white and flawless, and her luster was like jade. She was wearing a bird dress that draped over the ground, adding a hint of freshness to her cold temperament.
Behind her stood a gentle, virtuous, and elegant beautiful woman. She was the most trusted female official, Xiao Wan 'er.
"Greetings, Your Majesty." Su Guan bowed slightly.
" I'd like to invite you to dinner…" Jiang Yanwan said as she sharply noticed the oil stains on his slender fingers.
"You're cooking personally?" Her eyelashes fluttered a few times, and her cold tone was slightly curious.
Xiao Wan 'er scrutinized this mysterious Young Master Su, and there was a hint of shock in her eyes.
A gentleman would stay away from the kitchen. For a man like Su Guan, who used to be in a high position, he would not get close to oil and smoke.
"I'm used to it." Su Guan was not reserved and said casually,"
"Welcome, Your Majesty."
Then, he ordered the guards to open the middle door to welcome him.
Looking at his back as he led the way, Jiang Yanwan felt that this back was very lonely, as if he was out of place in the world.
The first time she saw Su Guan, she felt that this man had an immortal aura.
He was detached from the secular world, like a banished immortal who had fallen into the mortal world by mistake.
"I want to see you cook."
After entering the main hall, Jiang Yanwan opened her red lips and suggested as if nothing had happened.
Su Guan couldn't figure out this empress, so he didn't refuse and walked into the kitchen hall.
Looking at his busy figure, Xiao Wan 'er could not see any rudeness. Her ordinary cooking movements were very elegant.
Weirdo!
The two simple dishes were ready. Seeing Empress Jiang strolling around leisurely, Su Guan invited her,"
"If Your Majesty doesn't mind…"
It was normal etiquette to add chopsticks to your house when you came to visit at mealtime.
"I'll try it." Jiang Yan nodded her delicate chin.
Xiao Wan 'er wanted to say something but hesitated. She knew that the Emperor was a picky eater and could only taste a few mouthfuls of a hundred delicacies at most.
How good could Su Guan's cooking be? Don't let His Majesty's Holy Body get sick from eating it…
Su Guan served them two bowls of rice, a simple steamed bass and a plate of vegetables.
Xiao Wan 'er had always been vigilant and cautious. She quickly took a bite of each of them to test if there was any poison.
However, when she tasted the soft fish meat, she was a little stunned.
Jiang Yanwan's eyes twitched slightly as she took a bite of the fish. Her actions were elegant.
"Your Majesty, how is your cooking?" Su Guan asked.
The empress's eyes flashed as she said reservedly,
"It's just so-so."
Su Guan didn't say anything more, thinking to himself that the empress's personality was really special.
She was cold and arrogant.
He had just tasted the imperial food in the morning, and the taste was far inferior.
The three of them concentrated on eating. Xiao Wan 'er's appetite was greatly stimulated, and she ate several pieces of fish in a row.
Suddenly, she noticed the hint in His Majesty's eyes.
As a confidant, she instantly understood and said calmly,
"The dishes in the palace are extravagant and wasteful. His Majesty pursues simplicity.”
Su Guan was a smart person, so how could he not understand the meaning behind his words? He would come here to freeload in the future.
He said respectfully,"
"Your Majesty, it is my honor to be able to lower yourself.”
Jiang Yanwan nodded her head slightly, her lips gently twitching as she smiled sweetly.
Su Guan was stunned. He caught that fleeting smile.
It was a faint smile, but it was like layers of cocoons peeling off with a light click, revealing moving butterfly wings that slowly unfolded in the evening breeze.
The iceberg-like Empress could actually smile?
At this moment.
The eunuch outside the mansion hurried over and said with a troubled expression,"
"Your Majesty, the martial arts masters of the Lu family of Wu County heard that Young Master Su is good at martial arts and are clamoring to compete in front of the residence.”
Jiang Yanwan's eyes turned cold, and her indifferent eyes were filled with a deep chill.
But she did not say a word.
Xiao Wan 'er was also silent.
There were two prominent families in Chu, the Lu family of Wu County and the Xiao family of Jin Ling.
She came from the Xiao family of Jin Ling, and the Lu family of Wu County had a wider influence. Many of their clansmen were officials in the court, and they even had connections in other countries.
He clearly knew that His Majesty was coming to the Su residence, but he chose this time. His heart was really bad.
However…
An ant trying to shake a tree, overestimating his own strength!
Although she didn't know much about Su Guan, she knew that he was very powerful!
Three years ago, before the late Emperor died, the Emperor and she disguised themselves as vulgar men and sneaked into the Divine Capital of Great Zhou to assassinate a general of the Zhou Country.
After that, he had fought with Wu Mingyue's number one eagle hound, the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, Su Guan!
This was the first time His Majesty had met Su Guan!!
To be able to fight with His Majesty, would Young Master Su's martial arts be bad?
To be honest, Xiao Wan 'er still didn't think that Su Guan's value could compare to Canglan City. The Emperor's gamble was destined to fail.
However, because of this secret experience, he was not as resistant and cursed as the outside world. Even if he suffered a terrible loss, he could at least gain a martial arts expert.
Su Guan's eyes were calm. In terms of martial arts, he had only lost to one person in his life.
He had a mole at the corner of his eye, an ugly appearance, a medium build, and sparse hair…
It was still fresh in his memory and had been engraved in the depths of his soul.
He found it hard to accept failure and cultivated crazily, but that person seemed to have evaporated from the face of the earth. He couldn't find her even after using all his strength.
Now that he was facing the provocation of an ant, he had to take it.
He had to open it with one punch to avoid a hundred punches. If he did not completely intimidate them, there would definitely be an endless stream of flies in the future.
After a long silence, Su Guan said lightly,"
"Your Majesty, can I kill people?"
"Correct!" Jiang Yanwan picked up a mouthful of vegetables and said casually.
