After walking for a long time, they finally reached their destination, the reception hall. The decorations in the hall were very luxurious. In the center of the hall was a white jade decoration that Shen Yan had never seen before.

From Chen Yan's perspective, the ornament was of very good quality, carved from a piece of almost whole jade, crystal clear and glittering with a soft light, and that one piece alone was very expensive.
Walking a little closer to Chen Yan, I discovered that the calligraphy and paintings hanging above the wall were created by a very famous talent in the previous dynasty. Now, if you want to buy them, there is no demand at all, and they are simply not available, yet they are hung so casually in the hall.
Even the chair they were sitting on was inlaid with a thin layer of jade, which felt warm to the touch and did not make people feel cold at all in such a cold winter.
The cushion on the chair was also delicately embroidered, and it was soft and very comfortable.
Chen Yan carefully felt the pad under his hand. The pad was not like the high-end fur they had usually seen. It was even softer than the softest animal fur.
Shen Yan felt a bad premonition coming to his mind, and Chen Feixu could only stand beside Shen Yan and could not sit down.
So he didn't feel Shen Yan's strange feeling, but he saw Shen Yan's expression, which was a little strange.
"I don't know what material these cushions in the City Lord's Mansion are made of. They feel very strange and are so soft."
Shen Yan praised, carefully touching the cushion under his hand, and looking at the butler's face, hoping to see some clues from it.
But the butler didn't change his expression, he just smiled and said: "It's just some ordinary furs. It's just that the regent has never sat on such ordinary stuff, so he feels a little strange."

Chen Yan still felt something was a little strange, but it was not a good idea to pursue it any further, so he asked about the whereabouts of the city lord.
"I wonder where the city lord has gone. Is he usually so busy? He is really too busy. The court also intends to send more court officials to help the city lord relieve some of the pressure. I wonder if the city lord can agree."
Shen Yan took the opportunity to talk about this matter. It seemed that this housekeeper could be compared with the city lord's status, because the servants of the entire city lord's mansion treated the old housekeeper very seriously.
Chen Yan looked at the housekeeper who was instructing the servants on the side with something and had a very serious expression on his face, so he thought in his heart.
But unexpectedly, the old butler was not fooled. After hearing what Shen Yan said, he just smiled slightly and then spoke like someone else practicing Tai Chi.
"Your Majesty, please discuss this matter with our permanent resident! This old servant really cannot make the decision on this matter. No matter how much the Regent and I say, the city lord will be unhappy."
Although all the words were said in a joking tone, it made Shen Yan realize that this servant was not as lowly as she said.
