Luo Chen didn't expect Princess Mingyue to move so quickly. Only two or three hours after the house deed was handed over to him, she even had the plaque ready to be replaced. Luo Chen expected that Princess Mingyue must have arranged someone before giving him the house deed.
Started doing it.
Thinking of this, Luo Chen also secretly admired Princess Mingyue's thoughts. Unexpectedly, Princess Mingyue had already guessed that he would accept the house deed.
Shaking his head and throwing away the thoughts in his mind, Luo Chen led the horse to the door of the mansion, grabbed the copper ring on the door and knocked several times.
After a while, the door of the mansion creaked open, with a gap just big enough for people to step in. A middle-aged man with a middle-level second-rate status, neatly styled hair, and a face as resolute as a knife or an ax appeared in the gap.
.
Seeing Luo Chen's appearance and revealed cultivation, a heartfelt smile appeared on the middle-aged man's resolute face, and he asked in a deep voice: "Are you Mr. Luo?"
"That's right! It's me!"
Luo Chen nodded, looked at the middle-aged man's cultivation with slight surprise, and then asked doubtfully: "What? Do you know me?"
"Haha! I have never seen Mr. Luo before. It was someone sent by the princess who told me about Mr. Luo's appearance."
The middle-aged man shook his head, and then hurriedly opened the door: "Quick! Mr. Luo, please come in quickly! Give the horse to the younger one."
The middle-aged man said this and stepped forward to take the reins from Luo Chen's hand.
Seeing the middle-aged man walking with a limp, Luo Chen discovered that the middle-aged man's right foot was actually lame.
"I'll do it myself!"
Luo Chen smiled and shook his head, then led the horse into the mansion.
"The villain Zhang Junjie thanks Mr. Luo. Thank you Mr. Luo for curing the princess's hidden illness!"
After closing the door, the middle-aged man turned around and knelt down, saluting Luo Chen solemnly.
"There is no need to perform such a big ceremony, get up quickly!"
Luo Chen was shocked and hurriedly helped the middle-aged man who called himself Zhang Junjie up.
"Yes! Mr. Luo cured the princess's illness, and he is our benefactor!"
Zhang Junjie stood up and said with gratitude.
Shaking his head, Luo Chen said nothing more, looked at the deserted mansion and asked, "Are you the only one in this mansion?"
"No, there are two of them!"
Zhang Junjie shook his head and said: "In addition to the little one, there is also the Wu family who is a bitch. She went out to buy things for Mr. Luo."
"Um!"
Luo Chen nodded, tied the horse to a pillar, and said, "Take me around the house!"
"Yes, Mr. Luo, please come this way!"
Zhang Junjie said, limping ahead and leading the way.
This mansion is not big, only about 20 acres, but although it is small, it has all the internal organs, such as front yard, backyard, rockery, flowing water, pavilions and pavilions, and a small back garden.
The overall architecture of the mansion is antique and very unique, and the interior of the mansion has been cleaned cleanly. It is obvious that Junjie and his wife put a lot of thought into this picture.
Walking in the back garden, Zhang Junbao looked at the plum blossoms in bloom and said: "The princess likes plum blossoms, so there are many planted here. However, the princess rarely comes here. Since the princess got this mansion, she has never lived here. She has always been here."
It’s the little one and the bitch who are taking care of it.”
After saying that, Zhang Junbao said in a low mood: "After handing over the affairs here to Mr. Luo, the young couple will leave."
"Uh...leave?"
Luo Chen, who had been listening to Zhang Junjie's words, was stunned and asked in confusion: "Why are you leaving?"
"Hey! The princess gave this mansion to Mr. Luo, so the young couple will naturally leave." Zhang Junjie said with a wry smile.
"Need not!"
Luo Chen shook his head and said: "You two continue to stay in this mansion. I won't be here often. You will have to continue to manage this mansion from now on."
"this……"
Zhang Junjie was stunned when he heard this.
"What? Don't you want to?" Luo Chen frowned.
"No!"
Zhang Junjie came back to his senses and hurriedly bowed: "I am willing, young master. Thank you for taking me in!"
"Um!"
Luo Chen nodded, said no more, and continued to visit the mansion.
In the evening, Luo Chen, Zhang Junjie and his wife had dinner together.
"Uncle Zhang! What's wrong with your legs?"
Putting down the bowl and chopsticks, Luo Chen wiped his mouth and asked casually.
Hearing this, Zhang Junjie paused with the chopsticks in his hand to pick up the food, and Wu also stopped chewing the food in her mouth.
"well……"
After looking at each other with Wu, Zhang Junjie sighed softly, put down his chopsticks, and said in a deep voice: "My skills are inferior to others, and I was interrupted by others!"
"Hmm? Can you talk about it?"
As early as when he met Zhang Junjie, Luo Chen secretly felt that it was a pity that this second-rate middle-level warrior could only stay in this mansion to guard the door because he had a lame leg.
"Hey! There's nothing you can't say."
Zhang Junjie smiled indifferently, then suppressed his smile and said: "The younger one was originally the deputy general of the Tujiao Army. He was later transferred to the East Palace to serve as the commander of the crown prince's guard. Three years ago, in a conflict between the crown prince and the King of Wei, he was killed by the King of Wei.
The Western Region warrior under his command was defeated, and although he was finally rescued by Princess Mingyue, one of his legs was broken as a result."
As Zhang Junjie spoke, although his face looked downcast, there was a flash of fierceness in his eyes from time to time.
When she heard her husband mentioning old things again, Wu turned her head away and secretly wiped the tears from her eyes.
"Tu Jiao Army? Have you served in Tu Jiao Army? Or were you a deputy general?"
Luo Chen was secretly surprised! You must know that the Tujiao Army is one of the three most powerful legions in Daqian. It is stationed in the southernmost part of Daqian. It has been at war with the barbarian army of the Nanjiao Kingdom all year round. Its combat power is terrifying. It can be said that the Tujiao Army
It is no exaggeration to say that it is the most powerful legion among the three legions of Daqian.
Luo Chen never expected that the crippled warrior guarding the mansion was actually the deputy general of Tu Jiao Army. Looking at the temperament revealed by Zhang Junjie, Luo Chen nodded secretly. I'm afraid it was probably true.
"Haha! That happened a long time ago, so don't mention it!"
Zhang Junjie smiled with nostalgia, then picked up the chopsticks again and started eating.
"Um……"
Luo Chen glanced at Zhang Junjie thoughtfully, then turned his head, took out two banknotes from his arms, put them on the table, and said with a smile:
"Aunt Wu! Keep these two thousand taels of silver notes and use them for the expenses of the mansion. In addition, buy a few servants back! There are only three of us in such a big mansion, so it is really deserted. Besides, there are so many people in the mansion.
You and Uncle Zhang are too busy to deal with this matter!"
"this……"
Looking at the banknote, Wu was stunned for a moment, then shook her head and said: "Master, there is no need for these. The princess left a lot of silver when she sent someone here today, which is enough!"
"Keep it! I may not be in the house often in the future, so keep it for later use!"
After Luo Chen finished speaking, he pushed the banknote in front of Wu, then stood up, walked out of the lobby, and walked towards the backyard that Wu had tidied up for him.
