Chapter 292 - 291 Little Overlord: I Suspect You Are Setting Me Up
Ningzhou Prefecture City, even before the existence of Da Feng, had once served as the capital of a nation, boasting a glorious history. As it was now the central city of Da Feng, merchants from the east, south, west, and north converged here before spreading out in all directions. For this reason, the place was extremely bustling.
When Qin Liuxi and his party arrived, the Xiao Family had already sent people to wait for them, a trusted steward from Governor Xiao’s close circle. From a distance, he saw the Xiao Family’s carriage and immediately rode his horse forward, dismounting in front of Xiao Zhanrui’s carriage.
"This old servant pays his respects to the Eldest Young Master."
Xiao Zhanrui lifted the carriage curtain and said, "Ah, it’s Uncle Jiang. No need for formalities. Is everything prepared at the mansion?"
"Everything has been properly prepared, and the old master is also waiting at the mansion," replied Housekeeper Jiang as he looked towards the rear of the caravan and stepped forward. "Eldest Young Master, and that person?"
"He’s in the back."
"Shall this old servant go and offer my respects first?"
Xiao Zhanrui nodded. Although Mu Xi did not want to make a spectacle, the mansion was aware of his arrival. It was definitely appropriate to come forward and pay respects to avoid later retribution from some playboy.
Housekeeper Jiang went forward to offer his respects, although he did not even see the person in question. He had no expectation that someone as noble as Heir Mu would condescend to meet a servant like him. He simply reported his name and purpose in front of the carriage, made a bow, and walked away with his body bent.
In reality, Mu Xi was not in the carriage at all; instead, he was indolently lounging in Qin Liuxi’s carriage.
The carriages began to enter the city.
