"May I ask which family this young master is from?"

Their original intention was to drive the two away, but when they saw the expensive clothes and jewelry that Zhu Ming and Liu Jin were wearing, they became more respectful.

Zhu Ming had no doubt that if he dressed more casually, these two guys would probably chase him away.

"Please go and inform Mr. Wang that a distinguished person is looking for him."

Zhu Ming didn't say anything, so Liu Jin stood up and looked up at the two guards proudly.

He was already quite annoyed by the way these two guys were taking advantage of their superiors.

This time, Zhu Ming did not stop his behavior.

"This……"

Seeing Liu Jin's arrogant look, the guards no longer had the same arrogance as before. They looked at each other and hesitated.

"Just tell him it's related to Lord Lu."

Zhu Ming's guards were still unsure of their identities and spoke indifferently.

Lord Lu dares to be so arrogant and domineering in the imperial city. If Mr. Wang has connections there, he should have heard of Lord Lu's name.

"Please wait a moment, gentlemen."

The guard then bowed to Zhu Ming and sent someone to report.

Soon, the door of Wang Yuanwai's mansion was opened from the inside.

A bloated middle-aged man walked out of the house, followed by a man with shifty eyes.

Zhu Ming took a look at the clothes on the man and thought that these two should be Mr. Wang and his housekeeper.

When Wang Yuanwai saw Zhu Ming and Liu Jin standing outside the door, he was obviously stunned for a moment, and then walked over with some suspicion.

"Gentlemen, please come in."

He walked up to Zhu Ming, bent down and made a gesture of invitation.

Zhu Ming just nodded, then strode into the official's mansion.

This official's mansion not only looks grand from the outside, but its interior is full of garden and landscape style, quite elegant. I wonder how much money was spent on it.

"My two lords, it is noon now. I have sent someone to prepare wine and food."

Mr. Wang entertained Zhu Ming with a respectful attitude. He clapped his hands and the maids on both sides came up with fruit plates and placed them in front of Zhu Ming and Liu Jin.

"Thank you very much."

Zhu Ming glanced at Wang Yuanwai, and without any hesitation, he picked up a bunch of grapes and started eating.

Only Liu Jin was still standing beside Zhu Ming, observing his surroundings vigilantly.

Lord Lu's identity is really useful. Just by moving him out, Mr. Wang entertained him so attentively.

"You two gentlemen, please take a rest first. I will leave for a while."

When Mr. Wang saw Zhu Ming eating the fruit with peace of mind, he gave a dry laugh and retreated.

"This doesn't look fake, does it?"

After leaving the room, Mr. Wang called the butler over and asked in a low voice.

Of course he knew about Lord Lu, but he had never heard that there were two such people around Lord Lu.

Just looking at the way they are dressed, they don't look like fake rich young men.

"Don't worry, Master. I have already sent someone to Lord Lu to find out about their situation."

The housekeeper just glanced at the room where Zhu Ming, Liu Jin were with a bit of viciousness, and said in a deep voice.

What I want to say now is to let them stay here, and when the people who go to inquire come back, they will know whether it is true or not.

"They probably went to find out our identities."

Zhu Ming swallowed the fruit in his mouth, glanced at the door, and said something nonchalantly.

"Then we are..."

When Liu Jin heard that Mr. Wang doubted Zhu Ming's identity, he instantly became serious.

He immediately asked Zhu Ming whether he should reveal the identity of the emperor's grandson.

"No hurry, there are still some things I don't understand."

Zhu Ming just shook his head, picked up another orange, peeled it and put it in his mouth.

After Zhu Ming finished speaking, Liu Jin suppressed his thoughts, but his hand reached for the sign in his arms.

After all, Lord Lu's relationship is not real. If anything happens, it will also prove the identity of the little grandson of the emperor.

"Sorry to have kept you waiting, gentlemen."

Not long after Zhu Ming and Liu Jin finished talking, Wang Yuanwai opened the door and walked in. He rubbed his hands with an apologetic smile and said, "I just went to urge the cook."

"No matter what you two say, please stay and have a meal before leaving."

After he finished speaking, without waiting for Zhu Ming and Liu Jin to refuse, he clapped his hands again, and the servants outside the door brought up the dishes one by one.

Before figuring out the identities of these two people, to be on the safe side, we should treat them as real people.

Otherwise, if they really did it, they would not be able to bear the blame from Lord Lu.

"Then we won't be polite."

Zhu Ming took a look at the dishes. Although they were not as good as the imperial meals in the palace, they were still rich in fish and meat.

He naturally knew what Mr. Wang was thinking, and he started eating without caring at all.

They ran out of the palace and out of the city. Half a day had passed and he was already hungry.

"Sir, is the food not to your liking?"

Mr. Wang looked at Liu Jin who was working meticulously beside him and asked in a low voice.

"Eat, Liu Jin."

Seeing that Liu Jin did not move, Zhu Ming swallowed the meat in his mouth and urged him again.

It doesn’t cost any money anyway, so it’s a waste not to eat it.

Seeing Zhu Ming speak, Liu Jin started to pick up his chopsticks.

Mr. Wang also sat down opposite Zhu Ming, holding chopsticks, but his mind was still on Zhu Ming.

"My two lords, I wonder if Lord Lu wants you here for something?"

After pretending to take a bite of the food, Mr. Wang looked at Zhu Ming suspiciously and asked.

His words and deeds were all meant to test the relationship between Zhu Ming and Lord Lu.

"By the way, are the tenants in the village next door renting your land?"

Zhu Ming did not directly answer Wang Yuanwai's question, but pointed in the direction of the village he had just seen.

"Forehead……"

Seeing that Zhu Ming's answer was irrelevant, Mr. Wang was stunned at first, and then nodded helplessly.

"It is indeed a villain's land."

He was very clear about the land under his command. Zhu Ming just pointed and he knew which piece of land he was talking about.

"How much is the rent?"

Zhu Ming nodded again, took a bite of the food, and asked again.

From beginning to end, she never looked at Mr. Wang directly.

Seeing Zhu Ming being so arrogant, Wang Yuanwai felt a little resentful, but he didn't dare to show it.

If these two were really the sons of Lord Lu, he could not afford to offend them.

"In previous years, it was 60%. This year, the harvest is good, so I plan to raise the rent to 70%."

He was afraid that this was Lord Lu's intention, so he did not dare to hide it and answered truthfully.

After saying that, he stared at Zhu Ming again: "I wonder what your plan is for asking this?"

Regardless of whether the identities of these two people are real or fake, he doesn't know what the purpose of suddenly asking this is.

"Nothing, I just passed by when I came here, so I just asked."

Zhu Ming just answered perfunctorily absentmindedly.
