Although Xia Liuchuan was a little worried, he had nothing to do, so he had to leave Xia Dongyue's office.

"Brother, do you seem to have something on your mind, is it because you haven't gotten the Guardian Cocoon?" When Xia Xianyue saw Xia Liuchuan, she saw Xia Liuchuan's brows tightly locked, so she asked with concern.

"Zhou Wen is on his way to the imperial capital, and the old man has ordered the people in the Eastern Courtyard to bring Zhou Wen back before he enters the imperial capital. Xia Liuchuan said.

"Why did the old man bring Zhou Wen back?" Xia Xianyue didn't know about this, and after hearing this, her face changed slightly.

Xia Liuchuan hurriedly stopped Xia Xianyue from continuing, looked around, and saw that no one else was passing by, so he said in a low voice: "It's good that you know about this matter, don't mention it again, and don't tell anyone." Also, don't ask too much about the old man, do you understand?"

"Why?" Xia Xianyue still didn't quite understand.

In fact, Xia Xianyue's impression of the old man is very vague, although the old man is the real ruler of the Xia family, but Xia Xianyue is so big in the Xia family, and the number of times she has seen the old man is only a handful.

In her impression, the old man was a serious old man in a white robe, who only occasionally appeared in some important sacrifices of the Xia family, and he usually lived in the east courtyard.

The East Courtyard is also a forbidden place in the Xia family, and without the call of the old man, even Xia Dongyue cannot enter and leave the East Courtyard at will.

Only some people who are specifically responsible for taking care of the old man's daily life can enter the East Courtyard.

Most of the people who are responsible for taking care of the old man's life are not from the Xia family, but they are loyal to the old man one by one, and they will not question or hesitate about the old man's orders.

When Xia Xianyue was young, she once met an elder of the Xia family, and she didn't know what mistake she had made, so she was forcibly arrested by the people in the East Courtyard, and she never came out after entering the East Courtyard.

"Don't ask why, trust me, brother won't hurt you. Xia Liuchuan and Xia Xianyue looked at each other and said.

"I see. Xia Xianyue nodded slightly.

"Go and rest. Now that this matter has been handed over to the Eastern Court, we don't have to worry about it anymore. Xia Liuchuan seemed to have some worries, and went back to his residence after speaking.

But before he could open the door, someone came and said that the old man wanted to see him.

Xia Liuchuan's heart was shocked, he had already guessed why the old man was looking for him.

Xia Liuchuan took a deep breath and followed the housekeeper towards the east courtyard.

If it weren't necessary, Xia Liuchuan would rather never enter the East Courtyard again for the rest of his life.

When he was young, he actually liked to go to the East Courtyard to play, and the old man also doted on him, and the other Xia family members were not allowed to enter the East Courtyard at will, but he was allowed by the old man to enter and exit freely.

At that time, Xia Liuchuan could be said to be windy and rainy, even if he pulled out the flowers and plants planted by the old man himself, the old man just smiled and never punished him.

But after the age of fifteen, Xia Liuchuan rarely went to the Eastern Courtyard again, although his privilege was still there, but he was unwilling to go again.

Stepping into the familiar garden and looking at those familiar furnishings and flowers, Xia Liuchuan's mood was indescribably complicated.

"Xiao Chuan, Dongyue has already told me everything about you, don't worry, I will let Zhou Wen enter the imperial capital alive, let you win the bet, and get the opportunity to contract with the guardian. "An old man in a white robe was sitting in the stone pavilion, feeding the carp in the pond next to the stone pavilion.

"Got you covered. Xia Liuchuan bowed slightly and said.

He is a person who is not afraid of heaven and earth, and dares to do anything, but only in front of this old man, he does not dare to act arbitrarily.

The old man continued while feeding the fish: "It doesn't take much effort, it's just a matter of slowing down, after you contract the guardian, I want you to bring Zhou Wen back to me with your own hands, can you do it?"

"Old man, everyone around you is better than me, why do you have to let me go?" Xia Liuchuan said.

"If you don't want to, then let the moon go. The old man said lightly.

Xia Liuchuan opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything, just nodded: "I know, I'll go and bring Zhou Wen back." ”

"Remember, you are the future master of the Xia family, no matter how strong the people below are, they are always just subordinates. The old man said.

Rukawa understood. Xia Liuchuan lowered his head and said.

Zhou Wen rushed all the way to the imperial capital, but he didn't encounter anything strange again, except that the wood was too heavy, which made him rush very hard, and there was no trouble when he arrived.

When Zhou Wen saw the boundary monument of the word imperial capital from afar, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.

"Old sheep, after arriving in the imperial capital, where will this wood be placed?" Zhou Wen asked the antelope on the side.

The antelope wrote on the ground with its hooves: "Standing on the top of the Forbidden City." ”

Zhou Wen saw the words written by the antelope clearly, and his eyes widened suddenly.

The Forbidden City in the imperial capital is now a very special dimensional realm, and it is also one of the dimensional realms that the Xia family values the most, and its importance is not under the ancient sword mound.

As far as Zhou Wen knew, since the dimensional storm, the Xia family had blocked the dimensional realm of the Forbidden City, not allowing anyone to approach.

If he himself wants to get in, it shouldn't be difficult to get in with the ability of the invisibility cloak.

But if you want to carry such a big guy into the Forbidden City, it is impossible to be unaware, and you must have a conflict with the Xia family.

"Lao Yang, did you really deliberately trap me?" Zhou Wen seriously suspected that it was because he forcibly pulled Lao Yang out to go on the road with him, so Lao Yang deliberately tricked him.

The antelope ignored him and stepped over the boundary monument of the imperial capital.

Zhou Wen had no choice but to follow, and now he had no other choice.

Zhou Wen went out relatively little, and he had never seen a city as big as the imperial capital, and Luoyang seemed a little small in terms of scale and number of people.

Because there were too many people, Zhou Wen did not ride the Dawei King Kong Bull, and walked forward carrying the wood by himself.

Although this is the imperial capital, when they saw Zhou Wen walking on the street carrying such a big piece of wood, they still looked sideways.

Zhou Wen originally planned to contact Wang Lu after arriving in the imperial capital. But now that he is carrying a big log, it is not easy to invite her to dinner, so Zhou Wen simply did not contact her first, and when the matter of this wood is resolved, it is not too late to contact her.

I found a hotel to live in, and the room price was quite expensive, but Zhou Wen still paid happily and booked a room for a week.

It is relatively close to the Forbidden City, and from the floor-to-ceiling windows of the room, you can see the Forbidden City in the distance, which is why Zhou Wen chose to live here.

"How can you get this piece of wood in?" Zhou Wen stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, staring at the ancient Forbidden City in the distance, and many thoughts flashed through his heart.
