Chapter 94
Cao Liang went to visit him after he found out that He Yan was in the government today. The current He Yan is no longer the He Yan who was dismissed from office due to a flashy case and had nothing to do at home. Now He Yan serves as the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs and also has the title of Shizhong.
Head, both inside and outside, are all famous people.
He Yan has a very special status in Luoyang City. Although he has never recruited Cao Pi or the two emperors Cao, he has never been reused. However, as Cao Cao's stepson, he also married Cao Cao's daughter Princess Jinxiang.
As the current prince-in-law, no one dares to underestimate him.
Although He Yan was only a prince, his mansion was no less luxurious than those of county princes and rural princes. Moreover, early in the morning, there was already a lot of traffic in front of He Yan's house, and there was a constant stream of people coming and going.
Now Cao Liang's followers, Afu and Agui, have their own errands, so Cao Liang goes out, taking only Fang Bu with him.
In fact, Cao Liang also wanted to arrange an errand for Fang Bu. After all, with the expansion of the business, there was a shortage of manpower, but Fang Bu ignored him and did not care about anything else except being a bodyguard for Cao Liang.
Cao Liang had no choice but to do it. After all, his mother had arranged for him to come here, and he couldn't send him there at all.
When he arrived at the gate of He Mansion, Cao Liang got off his horse and handed over the greeting card and gift list.
The person in charge of welcoming guests at the entrance of He Mansion was a middle-aged steward. He glanced at Cao Liang's gift card, with a look of contempt on his face, and said arrogantly: "My master is currently receiving guests. Wu Xia receives them. Young Master should go first."
Go back and come back later."
The king of hell is easy to meet, but the devil is difficult to deal with. The domestic slaves of these big shots are often cunning and mean people. Cao Liang was too lazy to argue with him and asked: "I wonder when He Shangshu had a flaw. I have something important to discuss with you."
The middle-aged steward said in a tone of voice: "It's really hard to say. My master meets with dozens of people every day, and they all say they have important matters, and they can't be delayed. If the young master wants to meet, I'm afraid I can only make an appointment. Maybe
I’ll be free in three to five days.”
Cao Liang calmly took out a piece of gold, handed it over, and said: "I have something urgent, and I really can't wait for three to five days. Please ask the housekeeper to be accommodating and make it convenient."
When the middle-aged steward saw the gold, his eyes shone, he took it, put it in his sleeve, and said with a smile on his face: "Young Master is really a generous man, so be it, my master is chatting with Deng Shangshu at the moment, I will go in now
Let me ask if there is Yu Xia to receive the young master. Please wait a moment, young master."
Money can make all the difference. Despite the arrogant and domineering look on the evil slave's face, as long as a piece of gold is thrown out, he will immediately wag his tail like a pug and beg for mercy.
With Cao Liang's current worth, such a small amount of money is nothing. Buying a passepartout is more affordable than anything else.
Soon, the middle-aged steward came out with a smile on his face and said: "Young master, you are so lucky. My master is in a good mood today. You are allowed to come in. Please come with me."
Cao Liang cupped his hands and said, "Thank you so much, butler."
"Don't be polite. We, the slaves, are here to serve you, the master. But let's get back to the point. Master, you are generous to us servants. Why do you give us so little courtesy?
Stone powder, my master is not rare. If you give it to a first-class house, it will be a load. Can your five-stone powder be comparable to the one from first-class residence?" The middle-aged housekeeper obviously disliked Cao Liang's five-stone powder.
Cao Liang smiled brightly, this guy has eyes for gold and jade. He came today just to talk to He Yan about the Five Stone Powder. What would he give if he didn't give the Five Stone Powder?
Cao Liang ignored him and followed the middle-aged steward directly to the back garden.
The area of He Mansion is huge. The pavilions, terraces and pavilions are extremely exquisite and beautiful. The nine-curved corridor is even more ingenious and unique. The entire pavilion is luxurious yet quiet, rich but not majestic.
Reduce tranquility.
It can be seen that He Yan is a person who has great taste and enjoys life.
Cao Liang has seen those magnificent mansions, which were filled with nothing but the smell of copper, but He Yan's mansion, with its luxury, has a delicate freshness that is pleasing to the eye.
He Yan was a representative figure of the metaphysics school in the Wei and Jin Dynasties. Both in person and in his house, he had a free and uninhibited style. Even the reception area was not in the central hall, but in the back garden.
The back garden in spring is a good time for hundreds of flowers to bloom. Many precious flower species are planted in the back garden of He Mansion. They are colorful and fragrant, making people suspicious of entering a fairyland.
The sunshine and warmth of spring are harmonious. Bathing in the sunshine is undoubtedly the most pleasant thing.
Cao Liang saw He Yan, who was wearing a light robe and a lazy face.
This was the first time he saw He Yan. According to legend, He Yan was the most beautiful man in Luoyang. Although Cao Liang was mentally prepared, he was still quite shocked when he saw He Yan. He Yan was indeed so beautiful, compared to those
The most beautiful woman in the world must be even more beautiful. Her face is so soft and tender that it can be broken by a blow, her eyes are flowing, her eyebrows are delicate, her lips are red and her teeth are white, and her body is long and graceful. If it weren't for his lips, there would be no trace of them.
With Xu's short beard, Cao Liang really suspected that what he saw was an extremely charming and delicate beauty.
To be honest, Cao Liang is particularly disgusted with this kind of appearance between men and women. He is a good old man, without any masculinity. If he shaves off his two-character mustache, isn't he just a shemale?
?
Although Cao Liang had no interest in such a cute girl, he came here to ask for help. Naturally, he could not act based on his own likes and dislikes. He stepped forward and bowed, and said seriously: "Cao Liang of the Marquis of Gaoling Mansion"
, pay a visit to He Shangshu."
The reason why He Yan was willing to meet Cao Liang was because of his status as a descendant of Cao Liang's clan. He Yan was a royal relative and had an inseparable relationship with the Cao clan. For the sake of the brave cavalry general Cao Yan, he did not
May refuse Cao Liang's request for an audience.
He Yan nodded gently towards Cao Liang, smiled slightly, and said: "My nephew is really a talented person, and his future generations are formidable. Brother Bo Sheng has such a good son, and he will have a successor."
Cao Liang didn't take He Yan's words seriously. No matter how nice he said them, they were just polite words. He said humbly: "He Shangshu is ridiculously praised. My father also often mentioned that He Shangshu is the Taishan Beidou of metaphysics, leading the way."
, is a role model for our generation.”
Cao Liang secretly thought to himself, who wouldn't praise someone? As long as it's not too disgusting, even better, Cao Liang at least prepared a basket.
