Two hundred and eighty-ninth chapter [nothing to be courteous](2/2)
The Duke is favored and has great power. He did the right thing by recruiting such a foreign aid this time.
After entering the city, such a huge scene, with so many soldiers accompanying them all the way, naturally attracted many people in the imperial capital to watch.
After walking for a while, Du Wei realized that he was going in the wrong direction and couldn't help but ask: "Yi...how..."
In front of him, he saw a large group of people turning into a road on the left under the imperial city. Du Wei was very familiar with this road. However, it was not the small house where he lived before leaving the imperial capital. Instead, it turned to the place where the Luo Lin family used to be.
An old house!
There was a nice house in front of him, where Du Wei grew up. It originally belonged to Count Raymond of the Luo Lin family. However, after the coup, the house was confiscated. Du Wei did not want to come back after that. He was going to the northwest anyway. This house
Even though the Financial Secretary of the Imperial Capital took it back and sold it, he didn't care. Moreover, Count Raymond had been convicted of treason, and the house was not returned to Duwei at that time. According to the imperial decree, it was sold.
But this time when I came back and stood outside the door, I found that the house had been renovated. Even the stone slabs on the road in front of the door had been re-paved, and the door was built on an even more magnificent site. A stone carving with precious stones and pure gold
The emblem of the Tulip family came out and was inlaid on the gate. There was also a golden tulip flag next to it.
The original Earl's Palace has now become the Tulip Duke's Palace.
When Du Wei saw it in confusion, Camisillo, who was next to him, laughed softly: "My Duke, His Highness Chen personally asked the Financial Secretary to get this house back for you."
Du Wei opened his mouth: "Oh? But I remember that when I left the imperial capital, this house had been sold to someone else..."
Camisillo curled his lips: "Humph, His Highness Chen has come back by name. Even if there is already an owner here, no one dares to let him out." Baron Sac, the finance secretary next to him, also smiled and said: "Your Excellency, Duke,
You don't have to be polite. His Highness personally requested this house for you and bought it with money from the Financial Secretary. His Highness said that the Duke's Palace you have in the imperial capital is too small and not worthy of your status as a Duke.
.Although this house is the old house of the Luo Lin family, everyone knows your relationship with the Luo Lin family, so there is no need to make false excuses for the sake of appearance. People are nostalgic. You must like this house.
I just took it back to you, and I ordered it to be renovated with great efforts, but it cost a lot of gold coins!"
After saying that, he took Du Wei's hand and walked inside, smiling as he walked: "Come on, come in and see if you are satisfied! Many of the items in here were given by the fat man in Delan Mountain.
Yes, although this guy is very vulgar, he really has a good eye for picking things. To be honest, after we finished it, several of us took a look and we were really greedy! Even Count Villa was very greedy.
Said, compared with your house, his place has almost become a stable."
Du Wei walked in all the way and couldn't help but take a breath!
It seems that the regent has spent a lot of money to win over himself this time. The house has been renovated extremely thoroughly. The architecture of the house is majestic, luxurious but not tacky. When you walk into the yard, every plant and plant is clearly carefully thought out.
Along the way, there were dozens of servants in new clothes standing with their hands down. When they saw Du Wei coming from a distance, they quickly bent down and saluted.
"We have found these people for you. Among them, His Highness Chen has specially sent you a few etiquette masters from the palace for training. I guarantee that they will serve you to your satisfaction."
Walking all the way inside, Du Wei suddenly stopped. In the innermost part of the house, unlike the magnificent buildings in front, a small courtyard was reserved.
This courtyard was no other place, but it was the study room of Count Raymond. Du Wei couldn't help being stunned when he saw it. The original buildings here have been renovated, but this courtyard has maintained its original appearance.
.
"This is what I mean." Earl Villa whispered: "Since it is an old house, there must be some traces of the past, so that people can feel something grateful. All other places have been pushed aside.
It was rebuilt, but I heard that this was Raymond's study in the past, so I decided to keep it. Alas... Duwei, I know you are a nostalgic person."
Du Wei stood outside the courtyard and saw the small building standing inside. This building was completely different from the one outside. It did not show any luxury at all, but instead revealed some calmness in the indifference. It was evening at the moment,
Under the night, the house was shrouded in shadow, and the cold wind blew around it, rustling the grass and trees.
I don't know if the servants didn't turn off the lights after cleaning up, but in the study, there was a faint light coming from the window.
When Du Wei saw this scene, he suddenly felt as if a soft place in his heart had been hit hard!!
Memories of scenes in my heart come to mind one after another!
When I was young, my "father" held me in the yard and teased me hard in order to make me talk.
When I was young, in order to practice my martial arts, I asked the Alpha Guard Chief to check my body here.
Later, I invited Master Clark from the Magic Guild to check my magic talent here.
At that time, his father was disappointed with him again and again... Well, scenes like that must have hit this man hard. After all, as an earl and the head of the family, he shouldered the important responsibilities of the family, but his only son was a waste.
Later, when he returned to the imperial capital from Luo Lin's hometown, it was also in this study that his father tried to repair his relationship with him.
But, it was also in this study that father and son finally broke up completely!
I still remember that in the summer before the coup, it was also in this study that my father admitted that he had sent people to kill him...
I remember that day, my heart was so cold!
The sky is empty in summer, and my heart is like an abyss...well, that's how it feels.
At this time, Du Wei sighed in his heart, his mind was wandering a lot, and he couldn't help but feel a little crazy. Count Villa and others next to him seemed to understand Du Wei's mood, and they didn't say anything to disturb him.
Finally, after a while, Du Wei took a deep breath, turned around, bowed deeply to the people behind him, and then said in a deep voice:
"Everyone...thank you!"
Du Wei's "thank you" was extremely sincere and came from the heart. Earl Villa and others smiled, and the Delan Mountain monster muttered: "Okay, my Duke. Everyone, too."
I've been waiting for you in the cold wind for a long time! I originally wanted to get you to drink, but I know you've been tired all the way. It's not too late to drink tomorrow. But now, fat man, I have to go back and keep warm! Damn it
Weather, if I don't drink two jugs of hot wine quickly, I'm afraid my fat man will really turn into a popsicle."
As soon as he said this, everyone burst into laughter. Then Du Wei offered a few words of apology. But everyone knew that Du Wei had just come back and was not to be disturbed, so they all left.
Du Wei sent everyone away, looked at the new servants in the house, called the guards he had brought, and asked them to go down to rest. He had his gifts moved into the study, and then asked everyone to leave. Stay.
Du Wei is alone in the study.
The appearance of this study has remained the same as before. Even the chair was once used by Count Raymond... I don't know where the Finance Secretary's guys found it.
Du Wei sat behind the desk, where his father used to be. Then, as if subconsciously, he turned around casually, touched the bookshelf at the back, and found from behind a few books. Sure enough, he found a few books.
He took out a wine bottle from behind.
Looking at the wine bottle in his hand, he couldn't help but smile: "What a Count Villa, he really knows how to spy on people's thoughts! I even kept this thing as it is."
He touched the wine bottle in his hand, then unscrewed the cap and took a sip, sighing deeply.
Well, back then... my father must have often sat in this study drinking alone.
He is the head of the family and shoulders the important responsibilities of the family. Unfortunately, my son has disappointed him extremely. A heavy burden rests on his shoulders alone, and he has no one to talk to. The only way to relieve the pressure is to hide in the study.
I secretly took a few sips of wine.
Well, my mother was always worried about my father's health and wouldn't allow him to drink too much, so my father hid this bottle behind the books on this bookshelf.
Thinking of this, Du Wei's heart felt sour at first, then warmed up, and he didn't know how to sort out the feeling in his heart.
He was born here, but he suppressed his qq that had been kept in a cage.
Since becoming the "Duke's pet", in public places and with outsiders present, QQ can usually only squat in a large cage specially made for it.
At this moment, everyone outside was gone, so QQ jumped down and walked out of the cage. The cage was never locked, it was just a show for outsiders.
After all, after Du Wei learned about QQ's true identity, he locked the first pope of the Temple of Light in history in a bird cage, which really made him feel a little embarrassed.
"The expression on your face is really strange right now! I have been in Northwest China for almost two years, and I have never seen such an expression on your face." QQ sighed.
Du Wei shook his head: "You don't understand these things."
Then he rubbed his face and said with a smile: "Okay, now we are finally back. But this regent gave me a big surprise."
QQ said nonchalantly: "The surprise is a surprise, but I'm afraid he's just being nice to you, and it's not without conditions."
Du Wei casually took another sip of wine and said with a smile: "Of course! As a monarch, he has always controlled his subordinates. Even if his methods are ever-changing, no matter how complicated and subtle they are, they are just appearances. In the end, it was revealed.
, in the end, it’s just that: carrot and stick!”
He rubbed his nose and smiled bitterly: "First, he mobilized so many dignitaries in the imperial capital to hold a triumphal ceremony for me, which gave me enough face. Then he returned the house to me. It was a sentimental card! So
