Chen Qingyang's dishes were also quickly served. He ordered a pot of wine and ate a bowl of fish. The fish was the Imperial City Jellyfish. It was roasted red, had a rich broth and was sprinkled with green onions. Fish in the mouth, soft and tender, mouth savory.

Add to that the taste of the millet wine, it was truly delicious!

Chen Qingyang was tasting the wine and eating the meat while Grandmaster Wu's story was nearing its end. Next, it was time to reward him. A little girl brought a tray over to collect the money. When she received Chen Qingyang's tray, the little girl sweetly shouted, "Big brother!"

Chen Qingyang smiled. He was not a stingy person. He took out ten taels of gold and threw them on the tray.

With this, the little girl was immediately dumbfounded. She had never received such a large reward!

"Thank you, big brother." The girl finally reacted after a long while. The surrounding people were also stirred. Everyone wanted to offer a few pieces of silver as a reward. It was like five yuan, ten yuan. Chen Qingyang's move was f * cking six thousand yuan!

A tycoon!

All the guests looked at Chen Qingyang in a new light and whispered to each other in private. Chen Qingyang was too lazy to care.

However, Grandmaster Wu was a sensible person. He immediately pulled his granddaughter before Chen Qingyang, bowed deeply, and said, "This old and useless one thanks young master for the reward."

Chen Qingyang was not arrogant. He stood up and said, "Old sir, there is no need to be so courteous. It is just a small matter."

Grandmaster Wu said, "Young Master is generous, this old man will be forever grateful!"

Chen Qingyang's interest was piqued. He said, "Old Mr., if you have nothing to do, can you sit and drink with me?"

Grandmaster Wu was slightly startled, then he smiled and said, "Good, good, of course it's good."

After the storytelling, those who needed to leave also left. As for the rest, they all went to have fun.

Grandmaster Wu pulled his granddaughter to a seat, and Chen Qingyang shouted, "Waiter, come here."

The waiter immediately came over and asked, "Come, please give your instructions, guest."

Chen Qingyang then asked the little girl with a smile, "Little sister, what do you like to eat, just take care of it. Big brother will treat you to it."

The little girl looked at Grandmaster Wu timidly. Grandmaster Wu then said, "Young Master is generous with his rewards, how about this old man comes to be the host?"

Chen Qingyang smiled and said, "Anything is fine. As long as old mister is happy."

Grandmaster Wu laughed and said, "Young master is extraordinary, he is definitely not an ordinary person." He then said to the waiter, "Bring me a roast goose, my granddaughter is going to be very greedy."

"Alright!" The waiter responded.

Grandmaster Wu ordered two more dishes. After that, Chen Qingyang poured the wine for him.

Grandmaster Wu and Chen Qingyang raised their cups. After the two of them drank a cup of wine, Chen Qingyang picked up dishes for the little girl and asked casually, "Little sister, what's your name?"

The little girl then said, "Big brother, my name is Wu Xiaohua."

Grandmaster Wu continued, "Xiaohua originally wandered to the Imperial City. Anyway, I'm a lonely old man, so I was my companion. I took her in as my granddaughter to raise."

Chen Qingyang smiled and said, "I see."

Grandmaster Wu said, "May I ask for Young Master's name?"

Chen Qingyang said, "Old sir, my surname is Chen and I have a single name, Yang."

"Oh, so it's Young Master Chen. "Judging from Young Master Chen's accent, he doesn't seem to be from the Imperial City." Grandmaster Wu said.

Chen Qingyang told the truth and said, "I just arrived at the Imperial City today."

Grandmaster Wu said, "Is Young Master Chen coming to the Imperial City to play or...?"

Chen Qingyang said, "It's for the sake of becoming an official."

Grandmaster Wu was slightly surprised, he said, "Young Master wants to join an official?"

Chen Qingyang said, "That's right."

Grandmaster Wu took a sip of the rice wine, but didn't say anything.

Chen Qingyang said, "Old sir, isn't it appropriate to join an official's office?"

Grandmaster Wu replied, "Not really. However, there are 30 million people in the Imperial City. There were three hundred million people in the Great Kang Empire, and every day, there were over a million students trying to find a foothold in the imperial city. However, most of them had returned in disappointment. The Royal Capital is bustling with activity, but behind the flourishment, there's more cruelty. "

Chen Qingyang went silent.

Grandmaster Wu said, "But Young Master Chen, you're an extraordinary person. You'll definitely be different."

Chen Qingyang said, "To be honest, sir, I am a cultivator. I knew Marquis's sixth son, Lan Jianyi, from before. The reason why I've come here today is also because I have an agreement with young master Lan Jianyi.

Grandmaster Wu immediately raised his glass and said happily, "So it turns out that Young Master Chen has already planned it out, but this old man's worries are unnecessary. "Duke Lan is now a powerful official in the imperial court, and Young Master Chen knows Young Master Lan. It would be much simpler if he were to become an official."

Chen Qingyang said, "Old sir, we're just chatting. I also want to know more about Marquis. Can you tell me about it? "

Grandmaster Wu said, "Young Master Chen, you're stopping this old man. "This old one is just enjoying his meal. In fact, how could a person like Duke Lan be able to come into contact with me, a mountain villager?"

Chen Qingyang smiled and said, "That's alright, let's drink."

Grandmaster Wu followed the old man and drank his wine. He said, "Everything this old man knows, I've heard rumors about it. I don't dare to tell it to you, Young Master Chen."

Chen Qingyang said, "That's nothing. Let's just treat it as a casual chat and not taking it seriously."

Grandmaster Wu said, "Alright then, Young Master Chen, I'll just say it casually."

Chen Qingyang knew that the old man still had some stock. He smiled and said, "Tell me, I'm listening."

Grandmaster Wu said, "Duke Lan is a very impressive person. It's also because His Majesty has someone like Duke Lan to help him, that's why he was able to have his current situation so smoothly."

Chen Qingyang said, "Duke Lan is indeed powerful."

Grandmaster Wu smiled and said, "Besides, Young Master Chen, Duke Lan's strongest point is not his martial arts. Do you know what it is?"

Chen Qingyang said, "But I don't know."

Grandmaster Wu said, "Duke Lan's strongest point is loyalty to the king. He can do anything for His Majesty. "He'll never forgive anyone who says half a word about 'Your Majesty' in private."

Chen Qingyang was slightly surprised and said, "Sir, your words are quite interesting."

Grandmaster Wu smiled.

Chen Qingyang knew that the old man was reminding him. After all, he was going to the Wu Steel Manor to rely on himself, so the old man was telling him some things about the Wu Steel Manor.

Grandmaster Wu continued, "Duke Lan and His Majesty share the same ambition. This is the hardest couple to come by. There isn't any suspicion between them."

Chen Qingyang replied, "Continue on." Grandmaster Wu said, "But Duke Lan also has his own troubles."

"Oh, what's the trouble?" Chen Qingyang asked.

Grandmaster Wu said, "Duke Lan has a total of seven sons and a daughter. One of these children was born of a concubine. This son is his youngest son, and his name is Lan Tingyu. "

"That doesn't seem to be a problem." Chen Qingyang said.0

Grandmaster Wu smiled and said, "Young Master Chen, let me finish."

Chen Qingyang said, "Alright."

Grandmaster Wu said, "Duke Lan is an impartial person. His wife, Lili, is very well-mannered. His sons and daughters are all young talents, filial and capable at the same time. "

Chen Qingyang said, "Could the problem be Lan Tingyu?"

"Lan Tingyu's background is very special." Grandmaster Wu said.

"How special?" Chen Qingyang asked.

Grandmaster Wu said, "Lan Tingyu's mother is Holy Maiden from the Stellar Hall. The Stellar Hall at that time, vaguely speaking, it was not any worse than Great Apocalypse Temple. Duke Lan and His Majesty wanted to destroy the Stellar Hall, but they didn't want to cause too much damage. So Duke Lan deliberately approached Lan Tingyu's mother, Ye Luanfeng. Ye Luanfeng fell in love with Duke Lan and became Duke Lan's concubine. For Duke Lan's sake, Ye Luanfeng had given Duke Lan the ultimate technique of the Stellar Hall, the Great Stellar Art. After which, the Stellar Hall was destroyed. Ye Luanfeng stayed at the marquis' house and gave birth to Lan Tingyu for Duke Lan. "

Chen Qingyang said, "And then?"

Grandmaster Wu said, "When Ye Luanfeng left the Stellar Hall, her power was crippled. She's a great woman, but she loves the wrong people. "

Chen Qingyang's heart tightened.

Grandmaster Wu said, "Later, when Lili was six years old, she died of a serious illness. It was rumored that Madame Lin had killed Ye Luanfeng. However, no one knew the specifics. Since Lan Tingyu was still young, he naturally could not uphold justice for his mother. But more than that, Duke Lan gave the order. That is, Lan Tingyu cannot practice martial arts. "

"Why didn't you let Lan Tingyu practice martial arts?" Chen Qingyang was taken aback.

In an instant, Chen Qingyang's heart was filled with grief. He seemed to see his own shadow on Lan Tingyu.

Grandmaster Wu said, "I don't know why, but Lan Tingyu is not allowed to practice martial arts."

Chen Qingyang's gaze was heavy.

"Lan Tingyu has suffered a lot over the years. He was not well liked in the house of the Marquis, and his life was even worse than that of a servant. Even Maidservant can bully him. " Grandmaster Wu said.

Chen Qingyang said, "Does Duke Lan not know about it?"

Grandmaster Wu said, "I'm not sure whether Duke Lan knows this or not. But Duke Lan did not control it. "

"Why is that?" Chen Qingyang asked.

Grandmaster Wu smiled and said, "Who knows what Duke Lan is thinking?"

Chen Qingyang sighed. But he quickly said, "But even so, it's not Duke Lan's problem, is it?"

Grandmaster Wu said, "If Lan Tingyu has been suffering like this all this time, of course it won't be Duke Lan's problem. However, the key issue is … "

"What is it?" Chen Qingyang was confused.

Grandmaster Wu said: "Duke Lan does not allow Lan Tingyu to practice martial arts, but for some reason, all of a sudden, Lan Tingyu's cultivation level became very powerful. None of Duke Lan's sons were his match. In addition, Lan Tingyu also took part in the Imperial Examinations and got first place. His Majesty personally conferred the title of young general Zhenyuan, and even conferred the title of fourth rank to him. "
