Death Reincarnation Game Chapter 869: The Protector
bsp;Su Peng and Ling Xiaoyu went to the Protector's Mansion together. Su Peng and Ling Xiaoyu walked and talked along the way, telling each other about their experiences during their separation.
After Ling Xiaoyu broke up with Su Peng, she returned to Zhongzhou. Under the training of her father Ling Zhui, she entered the Six Gates. Because of Ling Zhui’s status among the Six Gates, Ling Xiaoyu rose quickly and became a A deacon at the six-door Zhongzhou headquarters.
Don’t underestimate that she is just a deacon. In fact, this is a very important position. According to modern official positions, Ling Xiaoyu is probably the director of the separated public security bureau in a district in the capital. There are only five such deacons in the entire Zhongzhou .
Today, Ling Xiaoyu was entrusted by the Protector to find Ling Meier, the daughter of the Protector, and she happened to meet Su Peng here.
"It turns out that you and the Protector's daughter were childhood sweethearts."
Su Peng listened to Ling Xiaoyu’s story and said to Ling Xiaoyu.
Ling Xiaoyu nodded, and she said to Su Peng: "Yes, my father is somewhat close to the Protector because of his position. He is considered a subordinate of the Protector. When I was a child, I often followed my father to the Protector's Mansion. At that time, he was still the Marquis, and Ling Meier and I were similar in age, so we got along very well... It's just that Ling Meier's temper became a little weird later..."
"Oh? What's the magic?"
Su Peng asked casually, Ling Xiaoyu suddenly blushed, and then said: "Stop talking about this, tell me about your situation, Brother Su, you are so powerful, I have heard about you in the Jianghu in Zhongzhou With your great achievements, you not only have a great reputation in the martial arts world, but you have also become the master of Liangzhou and Yuzhou. It is really amazing. My father also appreciates your achievements very much."
"It's just a coincidence."
Su Peng smiled slightly when he heard this. It was a coincidence that he embarked on the road of fighting for hegemony. But now that he heard the lovely girl Ling Xiaoyu say this to him with an admiring tone, although Su Peng was not very vain, he still felt very Not bad.
"It's a pity that I have a job now and can't leave Zhongzhou. Otherwise, I must go to Brother Su's territory to see how Brother Su has managed his place."
Ling Xiaoyu said to Su Peng.
"Okay, if you go, I will definitely welcome you."
Su Peng said to Ling Xiaoyu.
Ling Xiaoyu smiled sweetly, then she made a sound and said: "We have arrived at the Duke Protector's Mansion."
Su Peng looked forward and saw that the two of them had already walked far away from Fengyue Street. The place where we are now is a very spacious but quiet street. There are big houses on both sides of this street, and there are basically stone lions at the door. According to the etiquette system, this shows that the residents of this street are high-ranking officials.
Su Peng and Ling Xiaoyu kept walking inside. When they reached the end of the street, Ling Xiaoyu stopped in front of a large house.
Su Peng took a look at this house. It was very luxurious. Two two-meter-high stone lions were located in front of the house. The door was seven or eight meters wide. There are eight armored guards outside the door, standing astride swords, on both sides of the door. A large vermilion plaque hangs above the door. There are two small gold-lacquered characters in the upper left corner of the plaque, which are the two characters "Imperial Gift", and four below. In large characters, it reads 'Guo Guo Gongfu'. There is a gold lacquer square seal in the lower right corner, with four ancient characters 'Seal of Emperor Dawu' on it.
Seeing the seal, Su Peng took a second look. The name of the Wulin Empire was Dawu. The Dawu Emperor Seal was the seal used by the Wulin Emperors of all dynasties. Emperor Dawu used this seal to seal his seal, which showed that he was benevolent to the Protector of the Country. More pampering.
Ling Xiaoyu didn’t pay much attention. She had been here too many times and had no special feeling. She took Su Peng and walked inside.
I saw Ling Xiaoyu walking inside. None of the eight guards stopped him. Ling Xiaoyu was a regular visitor here, and the Protector had already ordered him not to stop him when he saw him.
However, Su Peng was stopped, and a guard said to Su Peng: "Stay, who are you? Please tell me your name!"
When Su Peng heard this, he hesitated.
Although Ling Xiaoyu is familiar with this place, it is not Ling Xiaoyu's home after all, and Ling Xiaoyu has no way to bring herself in.
Although Su Peng has high martial arts skills, this time he is here to find someone, not to fight, so he cannot force his way in.
He is now hesitating whether to give his real name.
After thinking for a while, Su Peng said: "I am Su Peng of Liangzhou, and I would like to see the Lord Protector."
"Liangzhou Su Peng!?"
After hearing Su Peng's self-registered number, the guard was obviously surprised. He looked at Su Peng up and down for a while before he said seriously: "Mr. Su, please wait a moment. I will inform the owner right away."
This person's tone was at least seven points more respectful than before.
Su Peng nodded. He was not a nobody in the world now, he was already a powerful person. It was normal for the guard to know his name.
This is the reputation of Jianghu. Su Peng can no longer see the system prompts, but from the reputation of Jianghu, Su Peng now has at least dozens of times the reputation of Zhao Qiu.
The guards went to report. Ling Xiaoyu was beside Su Peng. Ling Xiaoyu said to Su Peng with some admiration: "Brother Su, you are so powerful. Uncle Protector is famously arrogant in the imperial capital. His guards have all fought in real wars." Soldiers usually have high standards, but I didn’t expect them to be so respectful to you, Brother Su.”
Su Peng smiled slightly. Things like respect and honor never come out of thin air. Su Peng's strength also has a matching record. The other party naturally treats him differently from others. The other party is a soldier who came down from the battlefield and can understand it better. It is not easy to understand the hardships that Su Peng has established, so it is easier to understand Su Peng's glory and respect Su Peng even more.
The two waited at the door for a while, and not long after, the guard and a person in charge returned.
"The Protector invited Su Jijiu to the main hall. The Protector was dressing up and wanted to see Su Jijiu in person."
The steward who came out said respectfully to Su Peng.
Su Peng nodded. Although he mainly came to see Ling Meier, the other party prepared such thoughtful etiquette, and even the Lord Protector personally wore formal clothes and showed that he valued himself so much. Su Peng was embarrassed not to see her. Anyway, Ling Mei'er was at the Duke Protector's Mansion again. Su Peng met the owner first, and then it wasn't too late to go find Ling Mei'er.
Su Peng and Ling Xiaoyu followed the steward and walked into the house. The Protector's Mansion was very large, with five people in and five people out. Su Peng and others walked for a long time before they came to the main hall. .
The steward led Su Peng and others to the door of the principal room. He asked Su Peng and the others to wait for a while, and then he went in and reported to the Lord Protector.
Not long after Su Peng waited at the door, he suddenly heard a hearty laugh. In the main hall, a man in his fifties wearing bright yellow official uniform walked out.
"Is it Liangzhou Su Jijiu? Hahahaha... I have heard about the name of Su Jijiu for a long time when I was in Zhongzhou. I didn't expect you to come to my place as a guest. What a distinguished guest!"
The man in bright yellow robes walked out of the main hall.
Su Peng took a look at this man. He was about fifty years old. He has a tall and strong body. Although he holds a high position, the skin on his face is slightly weathered and his appearance is very good. He has the majesty of a general. The only thing he has some shortcomings is. It's because this person's eyebrows are raised, so his expression looks a bit sharp and overly arrogant.
But at this time, he had a smile on his face, which gave Su Peng a lot of face.
This person is wearing a bright yellow official uniform, with a strong military etiquette. He is at least a second-grade official and the holder of a title of marquis or above. Only then could he wear bright yellow official robes, and he was here to greet him, so he must be the Lord Protector.
Although the Protector Xu Yan looked a little arrogant, he was very enthusiastic when facing Su Peng today. He walked out, took Su Peng's wrist, and said to him: "Come on, come on, let's talk after we go in."
Su Peng smiled. He and Protector Xu Yan walked into the main hall, and Ling Xiaoyu also walked in.
The three of them entered the living room and sat down respectively. The servants served tea. After several people took a few sips, Xu Yan entered the topic and said to Su Peng: "Isn't Su Jijiu very busy with affairs in Liangzhou? At this time, the world There is great chaos. Strong figures are needed everywhere to stabilize the country. If Su Jijiu is not in charge of the overall situation in Liangzhou, why did he come to the imperial capital of Zhongzhou? What is the matter with me, Xu?"
Su Peng heard this and replied: "Actually, this time it was because of other things. I was passing by Zhongzhou and heard that a friend was in Zhongzhou, so I came to have a look. I met Xiaoyu on the street just now and learned that I That friend was a guest in the mansion, so he came to the Duke Protector's mansion to bother him."
"Oh? Your friend is at home? Who is your friend?"
Xu Yan heard this and asked Su Peng.
"Miss Lingmeier, she is not your beloved."
Su Peng said to Xu Yan.
When Xu Yan heard this, a light flashed in his eyes.
However, he did not hide it, nodded and said: "It is true. Miss Ling Meier is a guest in my house. She is living in the back house now. Does Su Jijiu want to meet her?"
"It's time to protect the country."
Su Peng said.
Xu Yan nodded and said: "I also happen to want to meet Miss Lingmeier, so let's go together."
Su Peng nodded, and the Protector also stood up and walked to the back house with Su Peng and Ling Xiaoyu.
Even in his own house, Xu Yan was pompous. His entourage led the way, while Xu Yan walked with Su Penngling Xiaoyu.
The back house of the Protector's Mansion had to pass through a large garden. Just when Su Peng and others walked to the middle of the garden, suddenly at the other end of the garden, a man who looked like a housekeeper trotted towards this side in a panic. Come.
"Bold! I bumped into the prince, can you take the responsibility?"
Seeing this man in such a panic, the two Xu Yan's followers who were leading the way shouted loudly at the man.
The man then saw clearly that it was the Protector Xu Yan, and he was so frightened that he quickly knelt on the ground.
Xu Yan's expression was a little unhappy. He felt that he had lost face in front of Su Peng. He said to the man gloomily: "Aren't you Lin'er's manager? You are in a panic, what do you look like!"
"The Duke of the country atones for his sins!"
The man kneeling on the ground hurriedly explained: "I was about to go find the Duke of Guo, but there was trouble in the back house!"
"What's going on?"
Xu Yan's expression became even more worried as he said to the man.
"My lord, the young master wants to use force on Miss Ling Meier and start a fight with Ling Meier's guards!"
The man said.
Before I finished speaking, I heard a "boom" sound. The wall of the back garden was broken by someone, and someone knocked in from outside the wall...
