Yang Tao, on the other hand, didn't find it unacceptable.
He had an empty title, and it was safe for his family to eat, drink, and wait for death. But if anything happened, he would still be at the mercy of others.
Empty titles were not as safe as real power.
If he was afraid of overdoing things, he could be a little more mediocre in the future. His military rank was neither too high nor too low. It was still safe.
Anyway, even if he had real power, Jiang Pengji still had to give him the empty title. He had two layers of protection.
Most importantly, he was used to fighting and fighting. It would be hard for him to return to peace. Yang Tao was not someone who could sit still.
Yan Lin sighed. "Think about it slowly, Zhengze. Whether you agree or not, remember to drag it out a little longer. Keep him in suspense."
Yang Tao was dumbfounded. "Keep Liu Xi in suspense?"
Yan Lin said, "Whether it's a man or a woman, those who get what they want too easily don't know how to cherish it."
Keeping him in suspense was not only to let him know how to cherish it, but it was also to increase his own value.
Yan Lin knew Yang Tao's temperament better than anyone else.
To put it bluntly, he knew what kind of sh * t he was about to poop when Yang Tao stuck out his butt.
He was decisive and decisive. Once he made a decision, he would not hesitate. Yan Lin was teaching him to be reserved and to put on airs.
After all, if he didn't put on airs now, he might not have the chance to do so in the future.
Yang Tao's expression was complicated. "I have a family."
Yan Lin's words were too ambiguous.
Jiang Pengji was a good-looking woman. She was charming, powerful, and powerful.
Even though humans had gotten rid of the stupidity of beasts, there were still some similarities. When it came to choosing a mate, capable males were favored by females. Regardless of gender, powerful and powerful men were indeed more attractive to the opposite sex.
There were many gossips among the people about this female lord and the officials around her.
It was just like when a man was surrounded by female officials. The people would think that there was some kind of indecent relationship between them.
Yan Lin glanced at Yang Tao's face and let out a rare snort.
"Shaoyang, why are you looking at me like that?"
Yan Lin smiled. "Zhengze is beautiful, but you are not the most beautiful woman in the world. That Lanting Duke will not covet your beauty."
Yang Tao had always been very confident in his face. He said, "How is it not stunning?"
Yan Lin asked him, "What do you think about Liu Xi's man, Wei Ci?"
Qian Su and Yang Tao were stunned. Why did the topic change to Wei Ci?
Qian Su recalled Wei Ci's face and heard Yang Tao say, "A refined gentleman, outstanding."
Yan Lin asked, "What does he look like?"
He was a refined gentleman who stood out from the crowd. What people praised was his moral conduct, but Yan Lin asked about his face!
Yang Tao racked his brains and racked his brains for a long time. He felt that any word that was used to describe Wei Ci would seem slightly vulgar.
In the end, he said, "Sha, is, he," Shaoyang said.
Qian Su couldn't restrain her laughter and almost couldn't hold it in.
Yang, Yang, Yan, and, Yan, Yan, was, said.
","., and Wei, was,..,.....
Yang of, Yang, of, and,....,.,, of Yang of Yang of things., of, of, of. of Yang,..,. of...
Yang Tao was an adult. How could he not answer that question? He said straightforwardly, "Of course it's the lovers' necks, going to hell together …"
It was as if someone was strangling him and muffling his voice. Qian Su also stopped. The two of them looked at Yan Lin in shock.
Yang Tao said, "I remember Liu Xi has many accessories. Why did you notice this?"
Qian Su understood.
When they first met, Yan Lin pointed out the mistakes in his accessories. He was so observant that it seemed like he had OCD.
Accessories weren't something that could be worn casually. What kind of accessories would be worn according to one's status, occasion, and age … These were all things that had to be paid attention to. If he made a mistake, he would be ridiculed behind his back for not knowing etiquette.
No matter how casual Jiang Pengji was, she was still a lord.
Today was the day she and Yang Tao made their vows. She couldn't make a mistake on such a small detail.
If she made a mistake …
It was not because she didn't care, but because …
The three of them looked at each other. They had mixed feelings.
Yan Lin looked down and murmured, "Keep it to yourself."
Yang Tao said, "I know, I know. I won't tell anyone."
He used to think that the gossips spread by the ignorant people were slandering her. He didn't expect Jiang Pengji to really have an affair with the officials.
Yan Lin added, "Don't think too much."
The two of them might really be in love. If she, as the lord, had fooled around with the officials, it wouldn't have come to this.
He could feel the atmosphere of a group of forces. Yan Lin's first impression of Jiang Pengji was that she was "upright." He also realized that other than Wei Ci, who seemed to be in a relationship with Jiang Pengji, the others didn't treat their lord as a woman.
Yang Tao was the most obedient. He did whatever his friends said.
Soon, it was lunchtime. Jiang Pengji invited Yang Tao and the others to eat with her. The various delicacies were delicious.
Zhangzhou had a lot of seafood. Under the guidance of Salted Fish in the streaming room, Jiang Pengji expanded her menu.
Yang Tao and the others grew up near the water. They didn't know that common seafood, such as scallops and oysters, could be cooked in such a way.
Before Jiang Pengji came, the culinary skills of this era were limited to plain water. There were few seasonings, and the most they could do was add salt.
The gentry ate meticulously, but they didn't have many ways to cook. No matter how good the ingredients were, the taste of the food was limited.
Yang Tao finally understood where Jiang Pengji's Zhangzhai Restaurant could go. The food was indeed delicious.
Therefore, Yang Tao asked Jiang Pengji for a chef.
Shao Yang said that Jiang Pengji needed his help. It was okay for him to be a little willful.
As expected, Jiang Pengji agreed. She even asked for the second-best chef in the kitchen. Yang Si's eyes turned red with jealousy.
He had coveted his lord's chef for so many years. His lord had never thought of rewarding him. Yang Tao had just arrived and he wanted to take it!
Seeing Yang Si's angry expression, Wei Ci smiled and passed him a plate of roasted oysters that he hadn't touched.
Unexpectedly, Yang Si rolled his eyes at Wei Ci after taking it.
Wei Ci understood immediately. He whispered, "When the war is over, I'll give you one of the chefs in my manor."
Yang Si was satisfied. "This is what you said. Don't go back on your word."
The cooking skills of the chefs in Wei Ci's manor weren't worse than that of the lord's. It was just that Wei Ci needed to recuperate and eat more carefully. These chefs were specially transferred over by the lord. If he couldn't ask the lord for help, he could take advantage of Wei Ci. It was fine as long as he could satisfy his tongue.
Wei Ci smiled. "You can't eat too much of it."
Seeing that Yang Si liked to eat oysters, Wei Ci kindly added.
Yang Si asked, "Why?"
Wei Ci said, "It strengthens Yang and nourishes Yin."
