There's something wrong with the general.

Chapter 20 Tiehan's Past

"Then how did you recognize me at first sight when there are so many people in this room?"

Could it be that Wen Qianyi also asked someone to draw a portrait of himself in disguise?

Haha, how is that possible.

"Your Majesty is the General's younger brother, so the General will naturally recognize you. However, my skills are not up to par, so I couldn't recognize Your Majesty. If it weren't for the General's guidance, I might have spent a lot of effort."

After hearing this, Wen Yuxi was surprised again. In other words, ordinary people couldn't recognize him at all, so how did Wen Qianyi find him? It was like a one-to-one mapping in mathematics, he could find him in one go. Moreover, he seemed to know that he was trying to play tricks, so he found so many people to "protect" him.

"So that's how it is. Then I'm relieved. If someone as powerful as Brother Tie can't recognize me, then others shouldn't be able to recognize me either."

"That's right, so you can put your mind at ease now, my Lord."

Wen Yuxi nodded and said, "When I go back today, Brother Lao Tie must say a few good words for me. I'm afraid my brother will be angry with me."

Tiehan smiled and became much softer.

Wen Yuxi opened his mouth slightly in surprise.

"The general loves you dearly, so he wouldn't be able to criticize you in the slightest. Don't worry, dear Marquis."

Okay, this guy is a general.

His fake brother was so cold and aloof. Sometimes he was so gentle that people couldn't resist him, and sometimes he suddenly became extremely cold, so distant and close at the same time that people always felt uneasy. However, based on his experience of dealing with this brother in the past few days, this person would give in to soft words and not to tough ones. If he gave in when the time came, this matter should be over.

"Anyway, thank you for your personal protection, Brother Tie. Now that we've finished our meal, let's go back. Waiter, check out."

Wen Yuxi turned around and greeted the waiter.

The waiter took out an abacus and reported a number.

Wen Yuxi put the silver on the table without blinking.

Tie Han was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the price of this table of dishes was not very expensive, but the taste was very good. This was the restaurant opened by the Marquis. He was really a good material for doing business.

But what puzzled him was that since it was his own restaurant, why did he have to pay?

Wen Yuxi saw the confusion in his eyes, smiled and explained, "The money in the restaurant is also money. I come here to buy things, so of course I have to pay. Anyway, the money earned in the end will go to me, so it's better to keep a low profile."

The two were about to leave when Butler Wang hurried downstairs, walked up to Wen Yuxi, and whispered in her ear, "My Lord, the carriage is waiting at the door. I need your help to get rid of this tall man beside you."

After saying that, he glanced at Tie Han with hostility on his face.

Wen Yuxi gestured for Tiehan to wait here first, then pulled Wang Gui aside and said, "No need for Steward Wang. I'll go back with him later. He's the man my brother sent to protect me, and he won't hurt me. I'll trouble you to take care of the restaurant during my absence."

"My Lord, what are you talking about? This is what I should do."

Wen Yuxi patted his shoulder to show encouragement.

This person was the steward he had personally chosen when he first arrived in this world. Later, he was put in charge of the business of the Marquis' Mansion. He was very capable in doing the job and was a rare talent. Wen Yuxi trusted him very much.

After saying goodbye to Butler Wang, Wen Yuxi and Tie Han left the restaurant together.

Wen Yuxi stood at the door and looked around, and sure enough, he found a carriage parked at the door.

He pointed to the carriage road and said, "Brother Tie, let's take that carriage back. I've been running all day and my legs are almost broken."

Tie Han nodded and said, "My Lord, you don't need to ask me for your decision. Just make it yourself and I will do as you say."

Wen Yuxi couldn't help but roll his eyes.

Bullshit.

It sounds nice, but isn't it true that we are restricted by him in everything we do?

But no matter what, today's outing is full of novelty and excitement. I have to go up the mountain with Wen Qianyi tomorrow, so I should go back early to rest and replenish my strength.

Wen Yuxi got on the carriage, then opened the curtain, revealing his head and said innocently, "Brother Tie, I don't know how to drive a carriage, so I'll have to trouble you to drive."

Tiehan nodded, jumped into the carriage and sat down, holding the reins in his hand, and leaned slightly to the side and said, "My Lord, please sit down."

As soon as he finished speaking, the carriage moved forward and Wen Yuxi sat back on the couch obediently.

After walking for a while, I felt drowsy sitting in the car.

Wen Yuxi had just finished his meal and was feeling sleepy. He yawned and lay sideways on the couch in the carriage.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Wen Yuxi woke up from his coma in pain.

His head hit the wooden board inside the carriage.

Wen Yuxi squinted his eyes, sat up dazedly, held his head with his hands, and asked unhappily, "What's going on? Aren't you home yet?"

Tie Han said, "Please forgive me, my lord. The carriage just ran over a pothole and it was a bit bumpy. But we are almost to the Marquis' Mansion. Please wait for a moment, my lord."

Haven't you arrived home yet?

Also, the roads in ancient times were too bad. Modern roads are better. It’s so convenient to take Didi when going out. It’s painful to come to this broken place.

Wen Yuxi's bad mood suddenly broke out when he woke up in a bad mood, but he suppressed his unhappiness.

He leaned back in the carriage sullenly, digesting these bad emotions alone.

Wen Yuxi is an optimistic person, positive and good at adjusting his mindset.

After my mind was clear for a while, my mood suddenly improved.

The autumn nights are already a bit chilly.

Wen Yuxi suddenly had the urge to go out and sit for a while. After thinking about it, he decided not to waste time on internal affairs. He immediately lifted the curtain and sat outside the carriage shoulder to shoulder with Tie Han.

"Why did the Marquis come out? It's cold at night. We're almost there."

Although he said this, he did not stop Wen Yuxi's actions.

The crowds were already very few at night. Wen Yuxi crossed his hands behind his head, closed his eyes, and felt the cool breeze brushing his cheeks, feeling unusually comfortable. "Brother Tie, how many years has he been with the general?"

Wen Yuxi suddenly asked this question, and Tiehan suddenly didn't know how to answer.

His memory was instantly pulled back to thirteen years ago, when he was still a twelve-year-old farm boy. His mother died early and his father was seriously ill in bed. In order to treat his father's illness, he spent all the money in the family. Because he was young and very thin, no one was willing to hire him to work, so he secretly learned skills from other people and wove bamboo baskets to sell for a living.

Later, his father died and eventually did not survive the winter. He sold everything he could but still could not raise enough money for his father's coffin. So he went to the market, hoping to sell himself so that his father could rest in peace.

But everyone who saw him shook their heads and refused to buy from him.

He was too small to be worth the money.

He almost starved to death that winter, but it was the general who pulled him out of the fire.

Not only did he bury his father, he also found someone to teach him martial arts.

He can get to where he is today thanks to the general's cultivation.

For the general, he would protect him even if it meant sacrificing his own life.

Wen Yuxi closed her eyes, so naturally she couldn't see the tears and determination that flashed across Tiehan's eyes.

I just felt that after I asked this question, he fell silent. I thought Tiehan didn't want to answer, so I didn't ask again.

"Why do you suddenly ask this, Lord Marquis?" Tie Han asked back.

Wen Yuxi swung his legs leisurely and said casually: "It's boring to sit here, so I just asked casually. Brother Tie, don't be nervous."
