The prince is very cruel

Chapter 219

On this day, Qin Yao tied her apron around her waist and tied her hair into a bun. As usual, she prepared a table full of home-cooked dishes and fiddled with the dishes and chopsticks.

"Husband, come and eat."

Because the servants in the house were dismissed and there was no one to cook, she took over. However, her cooking skills were unique and she was good at both entertaining guests and cooking in the kitchen.

"Hahaha!"

"What have you done again? It smells so good!" Guan Ning appeared out of nowhere, hugged her from behind, and sniffed her fiercely.

This posture was familiar to both of them.

Qin Yao turned around and rolled her eyes, saying coquettishly: "Cai Xiang, why are you sniffing me? Stop touching me and eat quickly."

"Hahaha, my lady is right. Let's do it after dinner."

Hearing this, Qin Yao almost fell to the ground, looking at him with a speechless, disgusted and coquettish look.

Guan Ning is thick-skinned and doesn't care.

"Pike, this is good. It can supplement protein." He said and grabbed it with his hands.

Qin Yao was about to stop him when suddenly, there were bursts of hurried footsteps and people talking on the street outside the mansion, as if something big had happened.

Guan Ning looked out curiously: "What's going on outside?"

"Maybe someone is getting married, it's so lively." Qin Yao said.

At this time, Yu Dilong suddenly rushed in.

"Report!!"

"Prince, two, two..." He gasped, his expression excited: "The Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi has arrived and has entered the capital!"

boom!

The news was nothing more than an earthquake, which made Guan Ning's eyes sharp in an instant. Qin Yao seemed to be hit by something, and she was distracted and worried.

"So fast?"

"How many people are returning to Beijing?"

"The prince seems to have brought three thousand personal guards with him, but they cannot enter the capital and are stationed outside the city. He only brought two hundred people with him."

"The imperial court has sent a welcoming team. In addition to His Majesty, many important figures have come to welcome us in person. It seems that the team will pass by our mansion." Yu Dilong said with wide eyes.

Guan Ning narrowed his eyes when he heard this. A figure like the Governor-General of Guangdong and Guangxi had a designated route to take when returning to Beijing. The road in front of Guan's mansion was a secondary road, not a main road. How could he pass by Guan's mansion?

But no matter what, Zhao Tai returned to Beijing with such a strong momentum that he couldn't eat anymore.

"Let's go out and take a look."

"Yes!"

When he reached the gate, he saw a grand occasion. The people welcomed him warmly. Along the way, a large number of officers and soldiers formed a human wall to leave the road open. The scene was so grand, as if the emperor was traveling.

Not only that, a large number of officials and some dignitaries who were not seen in the past showed up, surrounding a team like stars surrounding the moon, their faces almost broken by smiles.

There are not many people in the world who have such ability.

"Is this Zhao Tai?" Guan Ning murmured, his gaze far-reaching. For the first time, he witnessed what it meant to have omnipotent power and be surrounded by people.

"So many people, even a second-rank official, came out to greet him!" Qin Yao exclaimed, her charming face full of shock.

You should know that in ancient times, second-rank officials were the top of the pyramid, and first-rank officials almost did not exist.

"Oh my God, escorted by the imperial guards, welcomed by ministers, what a grand ceremony..." Yu Dilong and others couldn't help but look worried. If this guy takes action, he probably won't care about the law, right?

Only Guan Ning could remain calm and watch indifferently.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Zhao Tai's convoy was getting closer and closer.

The people all cheered: "Welcome the Governor-General of Guangdong and Guangxi!"

"Welcome the Governor-General of Guangdong and Guangxi!"

"Live a thousand years, live a thousand years, live a thousand years!"

The main carriage was majestic and mysterious. It never showed up, and even the princes and nobles disdained to get off the carriage to greet him. The guards surrounding him were arrogant and looked down on everyone, as if they didn't even take the imperial guards seriously.

Guan Ning was in the crowd. At this moment, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration and seemed to see Zhao Tai's vital point!

This guy, who doesn't know how to keep a low profile and is so arrogant about everything, is almost a template of someone who is too successful and threatens the emperor. How can the emperor not be afraid of such a person?

Although the emperor sent people to greet him and gave him enough face, Guan Ning didn't believe it. He didn't believe that the old emperor could trust Zhao Tai. Since ancient times, once a minister reached the highest position in the country, a knife would appear over his head.
