Chapter 157 The enthusiastic people of Luojing
Sheng Huaian and his party had not yet arrived in Luojing, but had just entered the territory of Jingzhou when the news had already spread to Luojing.
When they heard that the hero Sheng Huaian, who had recovered the grasslands of Hexi County and defeated the Rongdi, was about to enter the capital, many scholars and young ladies from aristocratic families were excited.
The scholars, firstly, admired Sheng Huaian's talent for poetry and secondly, envied Sheng Huaian's achievements.
Many young ladies from aristocratic families heard that Sheng Huaian was handsome and talented, and he took up a sword and mounted a horse, defeated the Rongdi, and recovered the territory.
It is said that beauties love heroes, and they love heroes with poetic talent even more.
Many young ladies from aristocratic families in the boudoir have long admired Sheng Huaian.
"Miss, Miss, I heard that General Sheng Huaian is about to enter the city." Lu Huan came back trotting and said breathlessly when she entered the boudoir.
"What? Really!" Wang Shiyu looked happy.
"Many people outside are saying that General Sheng and others have already arrived outside Luojing City." Maid Lu Huan said.
"Let's go to the city gate." Wang Shiyu said immediately.
"But, the master doesn't allow you to go out for no reason!" Maid Lu Huan said.
"It's okay, just don't let my father know, let's go." Wang Shiyu pulled the maid and ran to the back door.
If the Minister of War Wang Cheng Wang knew that his daughter was chasing stars, I don't know what he would feel in his heart.
Qian Xiaoxiao, the daughter of Qian Cheng Qian, the Minister of Rites of Qian Mansion, also quietly ran out of Qian Mansion after hearing the maid's report.
"I heard that Sheng Huaian, who has been famous recently, will enter the city today." Shangguan Feiliu said.
"Recently, teahouses and restaurants are discussing this General Sheng everywhere. Why don't we go and see who he is." Shangguan Yanchen suggested.
"Let's go and see what it looks like, whether it has three heads and six arms."
"Wait, I want to go too!" Shangguan Haitang said.
"Cousin!"
"Cousin!"
Several disciples of the Shangguan family looked at Shangguan Haitang.
"Why, if you don't take me with you, I will tell my uncle and others about your stay at the Jiaosifang last night." Shangguan Haitang threatened.
"You won't go by yourself." Shangguan Feiliu was speechless. This cousin followed her everywhere, making them have to sneak around when they went to the Jiaosifang.
"No, I just want to keep an eye on you and prevent you from making mistakes and affecting the reputation of our Shangguan family." Shangguan Haitang said seriously.
Several disciples of the Shangguan family had several layers of black lines on their faces.
"Let's go, let's go, aunt, I'm afraid of you." Shangguan Yanchen surrendered.
This girl was still good when she was practicing in Xuanjian Mountain. Now that she is back, she is like a follower, meddling in this and that.
Xie Wan Ning, the eldest daughter of the Xie family, also ran out of the mansion quietly with her maid.
In the capital, many young ladies from aristocratic families ran out quietly just to see what the man who was unparalleled in poetry, dressed in bright clothes and rode a horse, and roamed the grasslands looked like.
"Let's go. I heard that Sheng Huaian entered the city today. Let's go and see the general who wrote "Don't laugh at me sleeping drunk on the battlefield. How many people have ever returned from the battles in ancient times?" The scholars of Hengshan Academy ran down the academy and headed towards the city gate.
Sheng Huaian and others looked at the magnificent ancient city from afar, like a huge monster lying on the ground.
"General, the front is Luojing, the capital of our Great Wei." Shangguan Shuo said.
"Let's go, General Sheng, I think His Majesty has received the news that we are going to enter the city and has sent people to greet us." Han Yanran said.
"Yes!"
Sheng Huaian nodded. If he entered the city earlier, he could also rest earlier. He was exhausted from the journey.
He also wanted to take a hot bath as soon as possible.
Although he has almost reached the state of no dirt and no leakage, and there will be no dirt on his body, it is still very comfortable to take a hot bath.
The Yinyue Goddess followed the team and covered her face all the way. Otherwise, the appearance of the Yinyue Goddess would cause some unnecessary trouble.
When they walked to the city gate, Qian Cheng, the Minister of Rites, and Chen Wentai, the Junior Secretary of the Honglu Temple, were already waiting at the city gate.
Empress Han Yanran sent two ministers to welcome Sheng Huaian, and she almost came in person.
"But is it General Sheng Huaian?" Qian Cheng looked at Sheng Huaian in red robe and silver armor and asked with a bow.
"It's me, I don't know who you are, sir." Sheng Huaian bowed in return.
"I am Qian Cheng, the Minister of Rites, and I am here to welcome General Sheng into the city under the order of His Majesty." Qian Cheng replied.
"Hello, sir." Sheng Huaian said politely.
The Minister of Rites is a second-rank official and an important official in the court.
"General Sheng is too polite." Qian Cheng said with a smile.
Sheng Huaian looks really young. He is young, but he has made great military achievements, is talented in poetry, and has a handsome appearance.
"Chen Wentai, the Junior Secretary of the Honglu Temple, greets General Sheng." Chen Wentai bowed and saluted.
"Sheng Huaian greets Junior Secretary Chen." Sheng Huaian immediately returned the salute.
This is another fourth-rank official.
"Let's go, General Sheng, let's go into the city first. It's not a good idea to block here." Qian Cheng said.
"Okay, I'll listen to you, Mr. Qian." Sheng Huaian nodded.
Qian Cheng glanced behind Sheng Huaian and saw Xiao Chuyi. No wonder he hadn't heard the voice of this little tyrant of the Xiao Mansion in the past six months. It turned out that he had secretly gone to the northwest to join the army.
The welcoming team received Sheng Huaian and his party and entered the city.
Sheng Huaian, Qian Cheng and Chen Wentai were walking side by side. As soon as they entered the city, they saw many people standing on both sides of the street.
"Here he comes, here he comes. Look, that should be General Sheng Huaian." A scholar shouted.
"Wow, so handsome." A girl suddenly shouted.
On both sides of the road, the second and third floors of teahouses and restaurants were full of people.
Seeing Sheng Huaian's handsome and resolute face, his handsome face and extraordinary temperament, countless women immediately became crazy about him.
"So young, he feels younger than us."
"At such a young age, he has made great achievements. It's incredible."
"Damn it, are you going to let people live? I thought that the general who defeated Rongdi would be a rough-faced, powerful and strong general. Why does he feel more like a pretty boy than me... No, why is he more handsome than me?"
"Haha, it seems that General Sheng is still very popular. Look, these people are all here for you." Qian Cheng said with a smile.
"Master Qian, you are joking. They are just curious." Sheng Huaian said modestly.
"Miss, look at how handsome General Sheng is." Lu Huan and Wang Shiyu stood in the crowd, their eyes full of infatuation.
This is a hundred times more handsome than those weak scholars.
"The man on the street is like jade, and the young master is unparalleled in the world." Wang Shiyu looked at Sheng Huaian and said blankly.
Silver saddle on white horse, red robe and silver spear show heroic posture.
"Miss, Miss, look, the one with the master is General Sheng." Qian Xiaoxiao's maid Xiao Cui shook Qian Xiaoxiao's arm and said.
"Speak softly, don't let Dad find out." Qian Xiaoxiao was frightened and quickly hid behind the crowd.
"Huh?!"
Qian Cheng felt that he heard his daughter's voice. He looked over, but there were too many people and he didn't see Qian Xiaoxiao's figure.
"What's wrong, Master Qian." Sheng Huaian naturally noticed Qian Cheng's subtle changes.
"No, nothing, maybe I'm too busy these days and a little tired." Qian Cheng said with a smile.
I think he was hallucinating, how could he hear his daughter's voice?
His daughter is a gentle and well-behaved elegant woman, she would not come to such an occasion.
After all, he is confident in his family education! !
Sheng Huaian looked at the people on both sides of the street, many of whom were scholars, and there were many beautiful women in bright clothes. There was some surprise in his eyes. Is he so famous in Luojing?
"General Sheng, I like you!"
A young lady from a noble family suddenly shouted, and then ran away with a red face.
Sheng Huaian:......
Why do I feel a bit like the feeling of a star in my previous life walking on the street and being confessed by fans.
This girl from Wei Luojing is really lively and cheerful.
"Haha, it seems that the people in the capital Luojing are very enthusiastic, so they welcome General Sheng." Qian Cheng said with a smile.
Han Yanran looked in the crowd, really showing off, hum, how can it be in broad daylight? !
"Haha, it's really enthusiastic." Sheng Huaian was ashamed. He didn't know that he was so popular in Luojing.
"Young and promising, with military achievements, handsome appearance, and extraordinary talent in poetry, these are very popular no matter who it is." Chen Wentai said with a smile.
Young heroes like Sheng Huaian who are both civil and military and handsome are rare.
Compared with Sheng Huaian, many young men from noble families in Beijing can be said to be straw bags.
How can a piece of gold suddenly appear among a group of straw bags and not be popular?
After a long period of peace, many children from noble families only know how to enjoy themselves and lose their enterprising spirit.
They are not good at literature and martial arts, but they are proficient in everything.
Compared with them, Sheng Huaian is a natural talent, unparalleled in literature and martial arts!
