Chapter 185 It’s unnecessary

A moment later, Han Fei came in with a young man in brocade clothes. Yang Zhengshan stood in front of the main hall door, looking at the young man in brocade clothes who was getting closer.

The man was wearing a crimson purple brocade robe, with a white jade double fish pendant hanging around his waist, and walking towards him with a folding fan in his hand.

He has a handsome face, bright eyes, a faint smile on his lips, and an indescribable affinity.

What a noble young man!

Yang Zhengshan secretly admired in his heart.

It's not like he hasn't seen wealthy and noble young men before, such as Zhou Xu, the son of the Duke of Ningguo. His transcendent nobility was enough to make countless people feel inferior to him.

Although the young man in front of him is not as good as Zhou Xu, he has more youthful vitality than Zhou Xu.

"Wang Zheng from the Shouguo Mansion pays his respects to Lord Yang!"

Wang Zheng came to the front of the hall and saluted calmly with his fists clasped.

Yang Zhengshan was looking at him, and he was also looking at Yang Zhengshan.

His slender figure stood in front of the hall as straight as a gun, his broad shoulders showed his heroic spirit, his ruddy face did not look old at all, and his shiny black beard hung neatly, making his originally fierce aura much softer.

This Lord Yang is definitely not someone to be trifled with!
Wang Zheng thought to himself.

Yang Zhengshan's eyes flickered, "So it's the young master of Shouguo Mansion, come in!"

The Mansion of Duke Shou!

Yang Zhengshan's heart couldn't help but jump.

He didn't know much about the noble group of Darong, but he also knew the six dukes of Darong.

The Shouguo Mansion is the most special one among the six dukes of Darong.

Because he is a relative by marriage.

The current Duke of Shouguo is the emperor's personal retainer, and he is already ninety years old.

With this ancestor around, as long as the Shouguo Mansion does not rebel, all the civil and military officials in the court will force the lords of the Shouguo Mansion to obey.

But why did the people from Shouguo Mansion come to see him?
Commander of Songzhou Guard!

Yang Zhengshan thought of the key in an instant.

Because apart from this, the other party had no reason to come to him.

The two men entered the main hall and sat down as host and guest. Han Fei immediately served them tea. Yang Zhengshan glanced at the two followers behind Wang Zheng calmly.

A post-natal warrior, and it seems that he is not a low-level post-natal warrior.

From this, it can be seen that Master Wang Zheng is also quite favored in the Shouguo Mansion.

In noble families, favored children will receive more resources.

Don't think this is a trivial matter. Take Zhao Yuan for example. He is also the son of a noble family. However, he is a bastard who is not loved by his father and mother. Therefore, when he first came to Chongshan Town, he could only start as a centurion.

If Zhou Lan hadn't promoted him, he would probably still be a captain of a hundred households.

And what about the person in front of me?

As soon as he came up, he set his sights on the commander of Songzhou Guard.

A common man dares to dream of the position of commander of Songzhou Guard. This courage is not given by Fish Leong, but by the confidence given by the old Duke Shou.

"I wonder why you are looking for me?"

Yang Zhengshan broke the silence and asked.

Wang Zheng said with a warm smile, "I came here to ask for a favor!"

"What's the matter?" Yang Zhengshan also had a warm smile.

Wang Zheng looked at Yang Zhengshan meaningfully, as if to say, "Can't you guess what I'm doing?"
"Songzhou Guard Commander!"

Yang Zhengshan showed a look of astonishment, "What do you mean, sir?"

"This young master wants to be the commander of Songzhou Guard!" Wang Zheng said directly without any intention of hiding anything.

Yang Zhengshan was slightly stunned. "Sir, did you find the wrong person? I am only the deputy commander of Songzhou Guards, but I cannot be the commander!"

Wang Zheng shook his head and said slowly and methodically: "I know you are Zhou Lan's confidant, so I hope you can give up the position of commander of Songzhou Guards!"

Being Zhou Lan's confidant and not wanting to give up the position of commander of Songzhou Guard seem to have nothing to do with each other on the surface, but in fact the two are closely connected.

Because Yang Zhengshan is Zhou Lan's confidant, he is qualified to compete for the position of commander of Songzhou Guard, otherwise he would have no chance at all.

Yang Zhengshan stroked his beard, and the smile on his face became more kind. "So he is the man of Mr. Li Chunhui?"

"That's right!" said Wang Zheng.

"He framed me, was it also at your instruction?"

Wang Zheng shook his head. "It's not a false accusation. I just want to cause you some trouble. Even if there is a problem, I won't let you get into trouble."

"After all, you are Zhou Lan's!"

This person is quite open and honest, and doesn't seem to hide what he does or thinks.

But this is normal. After all, he has the support of the Shouguo Mansion. In this cold northern land, he doesn't need to worry too much.

"Haha~~Then should I also thank you, sir?" Yang Zhengshan chuckled.

Framed, just to cause him some trouble?
This inexplicable trouble really made Yang Zhengshan laugh.

"No need to thank me. I just hope that Lord Yang can be more sensible." Wang Zheng said calmly.

Yang Zhengshan withdrew his gaze, picked up the tea and took a sip.

"Oh, what a pity!"

He said in a somewhat teasing tone.

"What a pity?" Wang Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly.

Yang Zhengshan raised his head and looked at him calmly, "It's a pity that you did something wrong."

"What's the matter?" Wang Zheng frowned slightly.

"You shouldn't have let Li Chunhui target me!" Yang Zhengshan shook his head, "Because from the beginning I never thought of being promoted to the commander of Songzhou Guard."

"All you're doing is unnecessary."

Do more!
Wang Zheng's face changed slightly and his expression became gloomy.

It doesn't matter whether it is unnecessary or not. What matters is that Yang Zhengshan is mocking him.

"Lord Yang, please think carefully before you speak!" His tone turned cold.

However, Yang Zhengshan said indifferently: "It's really unnecessary. If Li Chunhui hadn't targeted me, I wouldn't have paid attention to the position of Songzhou Guard Commander!"

"According to my opinion, I will stay in Anyuan City for at least three years, and then seek promotion after three years."

"After all, I have only been in Anyuan City for half a year!"

He said it calmly, and of course what he said was true.

Wang Zheng's face turned ugly. He believed what Yang Zhengshan said and knew that he was wasting his time. "Since Lord Yang is not interested in that position, I would like to thank Lord Yang for his help!"

After saying that, he stood up and prepared to leave.

There was no need for him to continue doing this.

"Wait!" Yang Zhengshan stopped him, "Sir, don't be impatient. I still have some things to say!"

Wang Zheng, who was about to leave, stopped and turned to look at Yang Zhengshan, "What are you talking about!"

"The position of commander of Songzhou Guard has been taken!" Yang Zhengshan said with a smile.

You little bastard, I'll let you act so arrogantly and cause trouble for me.

I’m going to piss you off to death!
"It has an owner? Who?"

There was a cruel look in Wang Zheng's eyes.

This is his true face. His previous gentle appearance was just a disguise.

"Tan Jingtai, the commander of Songzhou Guard!" The smile on Yang Zhengshan's face became even bigger.

The angrier this guy gets, the better he feels.

I suffered a lot from Li Chunhui before, and now I can give it all back to this young man.

"Impossible!" Wang Zheng said without thinking.

He had already investigated the situation of Songzhou Guard a long time ago, and he had knowledge of the two commanders of Songzhou Guard, Tan Jingtai and Yang Zhengshan.

Otherwise he wouldn't target Yang Zhengshan.

In his eyes, Tan Jingtai had no qualifications to compete. In the entire Songzhou Guard, only Yang Zhengshan was qualified to compete.

Yang Zhengshan nodded, "Young Master is right. If we only rely on Lord Tan, we really can't sit in the position of Songzhou Guard Commander."

"But~~"

He paused deliberately to keep Wang Zheng in suspense.

Wang Zheng asked anxiously, "But what?"

The smile in Yang Zhengshan's eyes became more obvious.

Boy, you are still too young. How can you lose your balance so soon?
"But I can help him sit on it!"

"What!" Wang Zheng stared at Yang Zhengshan, "Master Yang, this is not a joke!"

Yang Zhengshan picked up the tea again and took a sip, "Han Fei, add more tea!"

Wang Zheng was really angry!

He is so angry.

This guy actually drinks tea!

Damn!

Han Fei didn't care whether he was angry or not. When Yang Zhengshan asked for more tea, he immediately brought the teapot over and added tea for Yang Zhengshan.

Yang Zhengshan moved the lid of the bowl and sipped it gently.

The tea is a bit hot, so don't drink it too fast.

"How could I joke with you, sir?"

"In the past two days, I have sent out two letters. Well, I just received news last night that the Dusi Yamen has prepared the documents."

"If nothing unexpected happens, Mr. Tan should have received the documents from his previous life today!"

Wang Zheng's face turned pale and blue, "Why do you do this?"

"I didn't expect that you would be interested in that position. Alas, this is a misunderstanding!"

"Look, if you had told me earlier, I wouldn't have to owe you a favor for Master Tan!"

"You may not understand me, but I have always been vindictive. I will make anyone who makes me unhappy unhappy, and I will cause trouble to anyone who causes me trouble!"

"Alas, what a pity! If you hadn't done this unnecessarily, I might have to call you Lord Wang now!"

"In fact, compared to Lord Tan, I still hope that you can take that position. I am short of money and food. With your status, as long as you take the position, you will definitely be able to provide me with a large amount of money and food."

Yang Zhengshan's face was full of regret, helplessness, and unconcealed sarcasm.

But his last sentence was not wrong.

If Wang Zheng had not committed such a crime many times, Yang Zhengshan would still support him as the commander of Songzhou Guard.

Because of his high birth, he had more confidence in Chongshan Pass and was more certain about asking for money and food from the Dusi Yamen.

When a new official takes office, he must win the hearts of the people.

As long as Wang Zheng is not stupid, he will definitely use the money and food to consolidate his position and enhance his prestige.

As long as Yang Zhengshan could get benefits, he didn't care who would be the commander of Songzhou Guard.

Wang Zheng really regretted it.

If he had known this, why would he have targeted Yang Zhengshan in the first place?

What a waste!
When Wang Zheng thought of the word "unnecessary", he felt so angry that his teeth itched.

"Master Yang, you are very good!"

He said through gritted teeth.

Yang Zhengshan grinned, "This officer has always been very good!"

"Haha, the young master just said that I am General Zhou's confidant! General Zhou has not only been kind to me, but he has also always treated me with courtesy."

His smile was a little arrogant, yes, arrogant.

In Wang Zheng's eyes, Yang Zhengshan's smile was so arrogant that he wanted to slap him.

General Zhou, Zhou Lan.

This is Yang Zhengshan’s biggest supporter.

Even if he was unscrupulous, he was not to the point of ignoring Zhou Lan.

There are still some differences between relatives by marriage and nobles.

Relatives by marriage rose to power by marrying off their daughters, while nobles gained titles by fighting on the battlefield.

Although they are all aristocrats and have the same titles, most of the nobles look down on their in-laws.

In particular, the Ningguo Mansion is a first-class duke's mansion with hereditary succession, and its title is higher than that of the Shouguo Mansion.

Yang Zhengshan cannot represent the Ningguo Mansion, but Wang Zheng cannot represent the Shouguo Mansion either.

No matter how favored Wang Zheng is in the Shouguo Mansion, he is not the Shouguo Mansion.
