The host also wants to be a boss today

Chapter 446
It's the beginning of summer and the weather is slowly warming up. The favored concubines in the palace have already started to use ice cubes. The palace people rush in and out to distribute the fresh lychees rewarded by His Majesty to each palace. It is unreasonable to be comfortable.

The streets of the capital city are still full of traffic, a bustling scene, against the sun, peddlers are shouting enthusiastically, and naughty children are chasing after the crowd from time to time, which startled the passers-by to exclaim.

Because today is the day when the general's class is returning to the court, apart from ordinary people, you can also see many princes and ladies from wealthy families, surrounded by servants in uniform.

Looking up, the teahouses and taverns on both sides were already full of crowds, and the waiter was struggling to squeeze through the crowd with the dishes, lively and lively.

The ones with status booked the boxes early, and watched the scene on the street below through the window while drinking and eating.

Many literati also took advantage of this opportunity to meet together, waiting to witness the demeanor of the young general, and each wrote a poem.

Perhaps it was hot weather, and everyone was crowded together again, so the people sitting in the lobby became a little impatient and asked questions at the top of their voices.

"Xiao Er, when will the general's troops come over? Are you sure they will pass through this street?"

Xiao Er came over with a smile and served a jug of wine, wiped his sweat with the towel on his shoulders, and said with a smile.

"Guest officer, what are you talking about? This street is the only way to enter the palace. The general is returning to the court today. The court has issued an order to enter the palace for rewards. Anyone who has a little bit of information knows, so you can rest assured. Go ahead, this letter, you can’t go wrong.”

"That's right, I just don't know where the troops are. I closed the shop on purpose today to join in the fun. I can't be blind for nothing."

"Hey, look, there are young ladies and gentlemen from rich families coming in and out on this street all the time. To tell you the truth, our upstairs is also full of dignitaries. Even if you don't believe me, you have to trust these adults."

"...It makes sense, then bring a pot of clean water over, and add side dishes by the way."

"Okay, just wait a moment."

This is the busiest street in the capital, and there are many restaurants and teahouses. Although it is not a place to look at, as long as there is a little bit of status, they will all gather here, and no one knows that the large army has arrived in Xifang City.

On the contrary, many young masters of aristocratic families were a little surprised when they heard the news from the servants.

"What? The general is not in the army?"

The servant responded, saw his young master waving his hand, quietly opened the door and retreated.

The other people in the box also heard this sentence and looked at each other.

"Why is the general not here? Then we are waiting in vain?"

"There must be something. I must be in the team by now. The one in the palace has already sent someone over."

After listening to his words, the others were finally relieved.

"That's true. It would be against the order if he wasn't here, but you have heard of the other party. What kind of person is he?"

"I don't know about this. I only heard that the general is about the same age as us. The general has always been stationed at the border. The last time I saw this was when the old general left office five years ago."

"No hurry, see you later."

...

Dongfang City.

A low-key carriage is driving on the road, and the difference can only be seen through the dark patterns and floral decorations on the curtain.

With a hoof, the carriage was forced to stop.

The maid sitting outside looked at the scene in the distance, then turned her head and spoke to the inside.

"Princess, the front is blocked. It looks like the convoy of the third prince. I don't know who it is colliding with. Do you need servants to go over and find out?"

It was quiet inside for a while, and then the curtain of the car was lifted, revealing a small half of his face.
