Chapter 152 The Attitude of the General's Mansion

In the early morning of the next day, Luo Lingfeng and his party bid farewell to Liuyun City and embarked on a journey to Yuqingzhou.

Luo Lingfeng's followers rode non-stop all night and arrived in Jiangning at dawn. After a short rest, he began to ask around for the exact location of the Shen Mansion and headed in that direction without hesitation.

The Shen Mansion is located in the core area of ​​Jiangning's inner city. Its architecture is grand and magnificent. The whole mansion is like a mighty lion squatting here, or like a sleeping tiger lying in it, exuding an incomparable majestic atmosphere.

On both sides of the gate of the mansion stand two stone lions, each one ten feet tall. The stone lions are unique in shape, with different postures and lifelike appearance.

The main entrance of the mansion was a wide and tall copper-iron gate, two meters wide and two meters high. A huge door knocker hung in the middle of the gate, flashing a cold metallic light. And right above the gate, a huge golden plaque with four sides gilded with gold hung high, engraved with two shining golden characters: Shen Mansion!

The attendant walked forward and gently knocked on the beautifully carved door. With a slight sound, the door slowly opened a crack, and a servant with sharp eyes and a shrewd expression appeared at the door. The attendant stepped forward and said respectfully, "I am the attendant of the Sixth Master Luo of the General's Mansion in Shangjing. I have come to see Master Shen today!"

When the servant heard this, he immediately showed respect on his face, and quickly stepped aside to invite the attendant in. Then, he led the attendant through several magnificent mansions and picturesque gardens. Every time they passed a place, the attendant couldn't help but marvel at the grandeur and beauty of the mansion.

Finally, they arrived in front of an elegant study. The servant knocked on the door gently, then pushed it open and walked in. A moment later, Master Shen came out quickly with a happy look on his face.

Master Shen said to his attendant with a smile on his face: "Thank you for coming from afar, young man! Please come into the flower hall and have a rest!" After that, he personally led the attendant into the flower hall and arranged for him to sit in a comfortable seat.

Then, Master Shen turned to the maid beside him and ordered: "Hurry up and prepare a sumptuous breakfast for the distinguished guest!" The maid took the order and left, moving quickly and skillfully. After a while, all kinds of exquisite snacks and tea were brought up and filled the table.

The attendant respectfully took out the letter Luo Lingfeng had given him and presented it to Master Shen: "This letter was specially asked by my son to be passed on to you, Master Shen!"

Mr. Shen frowned slightly, but still took the letter and opened it to read. After reading just a few lines, his originally tense face relaxed, replaced by a happy smile.

Master Shen turned to the maid beside him and ordered: "Go and invite the young lady over quickly!"

Not long after, Shen Yourong came to Mr. Shen under the guidance of the maid. Mr. Shen could not wait to hand the letter to Shen Yourong: "Rong'er, take a look quickly, this is a letter sent by the Third Master Luo of the General's Mansion."

Shen Yourong took the letter with great curiosity and started reading it. It said, "To Mr. Shen, everyone in the General's Mansion wishes Luo Lingliu and Miss Shen a long and happy marriage! I hope Mr. Shen will comfort Luo Lingliu. The General's Mansion will definitely send someone to discuss the marriage someday! Respectfully submitted by Luo Lingzhang!"

After reading the letter, Shen Yourong's lips curled up slightly, revealing a relieved smile. She immediately turned to the servant and ordered, "Send Boss Luo away quickly, and tell him that I have thought it through and will not force him to get married!"

The attendant quickly put the snacks and tea into his mouth, then bowed to Master Shen and said goodbye: "Master Shen! My Sixth Young Master and Young Miss have already left Liuyun City. Once they cross Yuqing Prefecture, they will come to the Shen Mansion to discuss the marriage of the Second Young Master! I hope Master Shen and Young Miss Shen can do their best to appease the Second Young Master!"

Mr. Shen smiled and responded, "Then I'll trouble you. Don't worry, we will be waiting for you!"

After the entourage left, Master Shen gently stroked his beard, his eyes flashing with cunning and shrewdness: "Rong'er! From the current situation, it seems that the General's Mansion does not object to letting Luo Lingliu marry into our Shen family! Luo Lingliu is indeed a business genius, and your father is very satisfied with him! But...if Luo Lingliu has no love for you, then we don't have to force it! After all, a forced melon is not sweet!"

Shen Yourong smiled and said firmly, "Father! I can feel that Luo Lingliu actually treats me differently! It's just that the throwing of the embroidered ball made him unhappy! Later, he lost to me in the account book competition, so he must be a little angry!"

Mr. Shen looked at his stubborn daughter, shook his head helplessly and sighed, "You! You have been competitive since childhood, and you want to do everything the best. But men all want face. If you beat him, where will he put his face? Alas!" He knew that his daughter had a strong personality, but he was also worried that her personality would cause setbacks in her love life.

Shen Yourong didn't care. She thought she was just showing her true self and she did nothing wrong. She believed that people who truly loved her would appreciate her strengths and tolerate her weaknesses. However, she didn't realize that love is not a simple competition, but requires the joint efforts of both parties.

At this time, Shen Yourong was looking forward to her next meeting with Luo Lingliu with great joy. She firmly believed that as long as she persisted, she would be able to move his heart. As for Mr. Shen, he could only pray silently in his heart, hoping that his daughter could find her happiness as soon as possible.

Before nightfall, the carriage of the general's mansion arrived at the gate of Yuqing Prefecture. Xiao Jinghan slowly lifted the curtain of the carriage, looked at the gate with cold eyes, and said coldly: "The governor of Yuqing Prefecture, Li Mingjie, is the cousin of the prime minister. This man has evil intentions and is treacherous and cunning! His methods are sinister and cruel! In the previous snowstorm, he dared to embezzle the relief money and grain without telling the court, causing countless victims to be displaced and starving!"

Luo Lingfeng was also furious after hearing this, and angrily replied: "If he hadn't relied on the Prime Minister's support, I'm afraid he would have died no less than a hundred times!"

The anger in Xiao Jinghan's eyes grew more intense: "He was tyrannical in Yuqing Prefecture, bullying the people and forcibly taking women. He was simply a lawless local emperor! What's even more hateful is that the imperial envoy Liu, who was sent by the court, also fell into his hands and died on the way back to Beijing!"

Luo Lingfeng was shocked: "Could it be Lord Liu Zhiquan? I heard that he was unfortunately buried in an avalanche!"

Xiao Jinghan sighed: "Actually, that's not the case. It was because Li Mingjie learned that Lord Liu had solid evidence of his crime, so he ordered his men to blow up the mountain wall on the road Lord Liu had to take to return to Beijing, causing an avalanche that killed Lord Liu!"

Luo Lingyue frowned. Did Xiao Jinghan come to Jiangnan with them just for Li Mingjie? Did he want to get rid of the Prime Minister's people?
