Not long ago, Kaiyang just ushered in a big victory.
And after the victory, there was a carnival.
Therefore, even though Wang Zheng had arranged for people to clean up the streets in advance, ordering pedestrians to disperse and cover up traces, Sun Ce could still see a lot from the traces.
Those were the fireworks... and noise that happened in this city not long ago.
Didn't Wen Chou even attack the inner city once?
When he walked through the gate, Sun Ce's expression changed slightly, and the smile on his face suddenly became lighter.
In my heart, I once again paid more attention to Wang Zhenghe, the Yellow Turban thief.
At this time, the size of this team has become much smaller, and most of the soldiers have been ordered to go to the military camp to rest and recuperate. Now, only Sun Ce and more than 20 soldiers are left.
Under the guidance of Yu Jin, they galloped through the magnificent inner city gate, then passed through Yuanzhan alleys, and arrived at the most prosperous Nancheng District in Kaiyang.
Compared with Linzi, Kaiyang is inferior as a whole, but because it is a thoroughfare to three provinces, it is even worse in terms of the gathering of merchants.
And Dongcheng District, where such prominent families and wealthy businessmen gather, is naturally prosperous and magnificent.
Each house is separated by a cloister and connected by ramps. The brick walls seen along the way have their own painted murals. The steps are covered with long steps of square bricks, showing their grandeur. If there is no one to guide you, it is not uncommon for you to get lost.
This scene shocked Sun Ce again.
Langya County is already rich, and it is natural for the county to be prosperous. What is strange to Sun Ce is that under the occupation of a group of Yellow Turban thieves...
How can this prosperity still exist today?
.....
When they came to the west of a square, Yu Jin, who was in front, reined in his horse and stopped.
Have you reached the place?
Sun Ce, who had been observing carefully all the way, was slightly startled again when he looked at the wide-open house in front of him.
In less than two hours after entering the city, he had already been surprised three times.
This is a three-story high-rise building, surrounded by courtyard walls, with vague Hakka palaces, pavilions, gardens, and corridors, giving it a luxurious atmosphere.
"Is this the general's residence?"
Looking sideways at Yu Jin, Sun Ce asked in surprise, with an expression of uncertainty.
Shouldn't it be here?
According to Sun Ce's thinking, Wang Zheng was now the Commander-in-Chief of Huangjin Qu, the leader of the three armies, and the entire Kaiyang belonged to him. No matter how luxurious the courtyard was, it was reasonable.
But it definitely shouldn’t be on the east side!
With Wang Zheng's current status, whether he chooses the previous county seat in Kaiyang or rebuilds his residence, logically it should not be in such a location.
Not only is it located in Dongcheng District, but the location is also somewhat remote. In this case, no matter how good the courtyard is, it is only a small house and a small business owner willing to accept it as a private residence.
Not to mention the royal government, even the most famous families are not willing to set up their main residence here.
"Of course not." Yu Jin laughed and said, "This is the place the general arranged for the envoy and others to stay."
This is right.
Sun Ce nodded, but waved his hand: "Major Jin, it's still early, so there is no need to bring me here at this time."
"If not, how about we go meet General Tiangong first?"
"Your Majesty is unaware of something." Yu Jin quickly explained:
"The general has informed you before that your delegation will have to travel over mountains and ridges from Yangzhou to this place. They will be covered in dust and wind, so they should take a bath and rest for a while."
"At the same time, he has prepared a banquet, also in this house, so that the envoy will not have to travel back and forth. Soon, the general will come here to meet him."
Informing...
Thinking of the sentinels who appeared beside Yu Jin when he entered the city, Sun Ce immediately grasped the key point.
So this arrangement was made on the spur of the moment after I entered the city?
Why?
No matter what the reason is, it must be that Jin Yu discovered something during the conversation with me and informed Wang Zheng that this change occurred!
Thinking of this, Sun Ce's burning eyes fell on Yu Jin, his expression straightened, he looked at it for a while, and then smiled again:
"The general is such a careful person."
"I am indeed a little tired." He took off his feather crown and stretched his muscles: "In this case, it is better to obey orders than to be respectful!"
Sun Ce became more and more interested in Wang Zheng, whom he had never met, and Jin Yu in front of him.
Both the king and the minister are quite interesting...
It is indeed not comparable to ordinary Yellow Turban thieves. No wonder Cao Cao and Wen Chou fell down one after another.
From Sun Ce's point of view, if Wang Zheng and Yu Jin had gone out together to welcome him before, then it would be normal for the host to follow the guests at this moment, and he was obviously lowering his position.
But when he went out to greet him, he didn't show his face, but now he has a humble and caring attitude, which means he is a bit arrogant in front and respectful in back.
There must be something mysterious in it.
In fact, this is all Sun Ce's overthinking.
Such a change occurred after the name of the future envoy was banned.
Nothing else.
Naturally, Yuan Shu, the Skeleton King, and Wang Zheng, a time traveler, have never paid attention to him.
But the future founder of the Soochow regime, the little overlord Sun Ce, was naturally very different.
Such a hero actually traveled thousands of miles to come here to pay a visit, and Wang Zheng was still willing to pay him three cents.
Of course, the maximum is three points, no more.
...
The handsome and elegant young man attracted everyone's attention as soon as he stepped into the courtyard.
What's more, countless maids of the Mi family couldn't help but cheer in their hearts, and even forgot to salute immediately.
"Oh my God, where did this royal grandson come from?"
"Even if not, he should be the direct son of a certain wealthy family, right?"
"Only with such an identity can he be worthy of his handsome face."
Girls love beauty, and sisters love money. This has been the case since ancient times.
And handsome guys can always make young girls' little rationality become more and more zero.
They completely ignored Sun Ce's brocade waist sword and his military general attire, thinking of it elsewhere.
Sun Ce was used to this, and he nodded to them one by one with a calm expression, then looked around the whole place, pointed at a pretty maid with a round face, and said with a smile:
"It's up to you to take us to the wing first."
Such a bright smile immediately made the maid blush and become dizzy, and her voice became stuttering:
"Um...of course...Sir, please..."
She also forgot to bow and salute first.
...
Mi Ling had informed Mi Fang of Wang Zheng's order in the morning, saying that he would temporarily rent a house to entertain distinguished guests.
Mi Fang is so shrewd and knowledgeable. Even General Tiangong has spoken, so what else can I borrow?
He immediately handed it over and donated this house to Wang Zheng directly.
Anyway, he also knew about his brother's previous involvement with Wang Zheng. He had put down all worries and was about to return to the East China Sea.
Therefore, this house at this time, including all the maids and servants inside...
It has become the property of Wang Zheng.
The round-faced maid naturally knew about this, but what she didn't expect was...
The new owner is such a handsome young man!
After taking Sun Ce and others into the room, she quickly ran towards the bathing hall to prepare for everyone to take a bath later.
While doing things, I was still thinking wildly.
I had only heard earlier that this General Tiangong was very young, but he was unexpectedly so handsome...
Hey, such a noble person should look down on slaves, right?
She squatted behind the bathing hall and kept adding firewood, while thinking resentfully.
But at this time.
A young girl happened to come here. When she saw that the oil lamps were lit in the bathing hall, and the clouds and mist were rising, her eyes lit up and she walked in lightly.
The jade feet stepped on the white porcelain surface, making a slight sound, but the maidservant was still unaware of it.
"Xiaoya."
A cooing cry suddenly sounded, and the maid was startled. She turned around and saw her young lady looking at her with a smile.
"You're a smart girl. You guessed that I was about to take a bath today." The young lady smiled and said, "I came here in advance to prepare. It's not bad."
"I want to reward you." He said, shaking his head, his round temples trembling, as if he was thinking seriously.
"No." The maid quickly explained: "Miss, this is prepared for General Tiangong."
"oh?"
Hearing this, the girl immediately tilted her head, stared at the maid and asked, "Is that yellow scarf thief here?"
"Have you met me?"
Seeing the maid Nuonuo nodding, the girl showed curiosity on her face and asked: "What does it look like? Does it have a green face with fangs and a beard?"
Regardless of men or women, the first point of attention towards the opposite sex seems to always be the face, unchanged from ancient times to the present.
The maid chuckled and shook her head: "No way, General Tiangong is very young." Thinking of that handsome face, her face turned red again.
"Ouch."
Seeing her being so shy, the girl looked suspicious, rolled her eyes a few times, walked in front of the maid, and pinched her round face: "Little girl, are you tempted?"
"Why, is that yellow scarf thief handsome?"
The maid's cheeks turned redder and redder. She was silent for a long time before she said carefully: "Yes."
He is very good-looking. I have never seen such a good-looking person.
She added silently in her heart.
"Is that so?"
The girl was stunned for a moment. She put her finger on her delicate chin and bit her lip. After thinking for a long time, she suddenly put her hands on her hips and raised her chest, and shouted without restraint:
