The place where Gusu City is located is steaming, and the dragon is in full swing. Therefore, Emperor Taizu chose this place to establish a country. In the center of the city is naturally the Imperial City of the Great Calendar, and the vermilion palace wall is built around the imperial city. From the Suzaku Gate, the mansions of large and small officials are built separately, and the closer to the imperial city in the Great Calendar, the more noble the mansion is. In the past, there was a mansion here, with a supreme glorious status, and I don't know how many virtuous and famous ministers came out here.

However, because of a rebellion, the whole clan was destroyed. This illustrious mansion for several years was finally submerged in the prosperity of the imperial capital.

Xie Yaoguang stood alone at the door of the abandoned mansion with an umbrella. Staring at the vermilion lacquer mottled door, the handwriting on the old seal pierced her a little afraid to open her eyes. Everywhere you look, cobwebs crawling wantonly and crumbling in the wind.

Many people in the capital know about this mansion. It was the mansion of the Gu family, the first gate in Dayue in the past. wanted the Gu family to have many famous and virtuous ministers, but they were defeated by the emperor after all. Every time I think of the rebellion case back then, the blood of the Gu family stained the bluestone steps, and the wails and resentments of that day seemed to be still entrenched in front of the mansion. I couldn't help but shudder. What a glory it once was, so many people envied it. can't resist the emperor's sentence, "The crime of rebellion is a major crime, and the nine clans are connected." ”

Hide the edge in your eyes. Grandfather I'm back......

By the time Xie Yaoguang arrived at Chaofeng Tower, it was already full of people, and the dignitaries and dignitaries in the city were almost pouring out, and the three friends and four friends, bosses and subordinates greeted each other. Xie Yaoguang was in a hurry to deal with some things, and Su Wan stepped out of the door, and the two made an appointment to meet in the Su family's brocade shed later. Suzaku and Zhuo Jing escorted Xie Yaoguang left and right, and went to meet Su Wan. Along the way, it was slightly better to walk to the Jinpeng area.

Lift the curtain and enter. Su Wan saw Xie Yaoguang coming, greeted him, and sat down with Xie Yaoguang in his arms. Catching a glimpse of Su Yu, he looked at himself with a guilty face, raised his eyebrows and smiled.

This will be before sitting down. Chaofeng Tower suddenly rang the bell, nine long and five short announced the arrival of the emperor. The downstairs was suddenly solemn, and the birds did not hear it, only the bright voice of the master of ceremonies led everyone to worship.

Looking up from the brocade canopy, looking at the canopy palace fan and the beaded crown brocade robe in the railing of the Fenglou. Except for the fact that you can roughly guess the emperor's position in the main building, the rest of the faces are blurred. The people on the tall buildings looked down condescendingly, and it was clear when they looked at the people downstairs. The celebrant announced the ceremony of the lord of Jingning County to seek marriage, and the martial arts test began. Su Yu had already gone backstage to wait because of the registration. Su Yu had a position today, and he also left with Su Yu. Only Su Wan and Xie Yaoguang were left in the brocade shed at the moment. The sheds of the Xu and Xiao families are not far from the Su family. At this moment, the young ladies of the two families came to the Su family's shed and pulled Su Wan and them to chat.

"A-Yao, do you know, Wan'er had it once when she was a child. almost burned down Su Houye's study. made Su Hou Ye angry half to death. It's because I fell in love with the pair of lanterns in Su Houye's study," Ye Lingyu took Xie Yaoguang's hand and smiled.

"Lingyu, you see you smiling like this, it's like a splashing monkey"

"Who do you say splashed the monkey? See if I don't scratch you to death"

Looking at the two of them who were laughing and laughing, Xie Yaoguang smiled at the corners of his mouth.

Someone outside the shed suddenly announced in a long voice, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived, His Royal Highness the King of ——, Shou has arrived-"

There was a sudden silence in the shed, and Xie Yaoguang slowly stood up with a calm expression. The two people who came in one after the other knew that they were brothers at a glance, both tall and sturdy figures, with deep eyes and thin lips, and looked a little like Xianbei people from a distance. Although they have similar faces, the prince Ye Lin's eyebrows reveal a yin owl, which makes people not very happy. On the contrary, Shouwang Ye Linjing, who came in later, looked more comfortable, and showed a deliberately peaceful smile as soon as he came in.

Xie Yaoguang guessed that these two would inevitably come to look for him, but he didn't expect these two to appear at the same time, and saluted with everyone. Except for Xie Yaoguang, the others present were all related to the royal family, so they were naturally quickly helped up and seated.

King Shou looked around, his eyes naturally fell on Xie Yao's face, looked at it carefully, turned back to Su Wan, and said loudly: "I have long heard Su Yu say that you invited the young lady of the Xie family in Luoyang to come to the house as a guest, the Xie family has made meritorious contributions to my calendar, and this king should have visited the door in person, but he has always been entangled in trivial matters."

When the prince heard King Shou's words, he glanced at King Shou with disdain and snorted coldly. If it weren't for the two mansions to contain each other, I'm afraid that as soon as King Shou heard the news from Su Yu, he would go straight to Su Mansion. However, King Shou was still smart and knew that his father had always disliked such behavior, so he invited the queen to send a female official to visit Xie Yaoguang. Hearing the news from others, although Xie Yaoguang met with the female official, he made the other party go back to the queen with surprise.

Therefore, it is still the mother concubine who is smart, so that she can visit Xie Yaoguang today. Do the full number of salutes.

"This is Miss Xie, and she really has a square demeanor," King Shou looked at Xie Yaoguang with gentle eyes and praised: "Over the years, my calendar and the national policy of the three kingdoms of Northern Yan and Xidi have been able to proceed smoothly thanks to the great help of the Xie family." This king will definitely play His Majesty and reward the Xie family to comfort the people. ”

"His Royal Highness King Shou praises falsely, the Xie family is the worry of the people of the Great Calendar, which is what should be done, and it should not be rewarded by His Majesty."

Seeing that King Shou was speechless by Xie Yaoguang's soft words, he hurriedly answered: "What Miss Xie said is extremely true, we are the matter of being loyal to the king, how can we say that we will be rewarded." Moreover, this king has long heard that the Xie family is of good conduct and has the style of the Wei and Jin dynasties. Naturally, I don't care about these false names. ”

Xie Yaoguang raised his lips and chuckled lightly and did not answer.

"I heard that Miss Xie has been in poor health since she was a child, and she came to the capital to recuperate. I don't know where Miss Xie has been."

"Recently, I have been unwell, and I have only been to Hanshan ......Temple so far," Xie Yaoguang said, lowering his eyes to hide the helplessness in his eyes.

The two distinguished guests here naturally knew what happened in Hanshan Temple, and they all glanced at each other.

"Although Hanshan Temple is a century-old ancient temple, the scenery during it is indeed much inferior to the gardens outside the city of Gusu. There are several royal gardens with good scenery, if Miss Xie is willing to have a waist card wide in this palace, you can take Su Wan and them with you."

"Thank you for your kindness, Yaoguang is happy and pure, plus it is natural to be a royal nobleman who can come to the garden, wouldn't it be rude to collide with a nobleman," Xie Yaoguang glanced at the white jade waist card in the prince's hand and smiled.

King Shou, who was temporarily down, appreciated Xie Yaoguang more and more, and saw that she frequently made the prince even more happy. The prince is really stupid and dull, and he can't see that this Miss Xie has no intention of accepting the prince's gift.

"The meaning of playing this kind of extremely physical effort, Brother Huang, you can also think of it? This king has a pair of high-grade Qiluo jade produced in southern Xinjiang here, and the ancestors have cloud jade to raise people. Beautiful jade with beauty, this king feels that this jade is very suitable for Miss Xie. In addition, there is a medicinal spring in the palace of this king, which is the most nourishing qi and benefiting the body, and the father is full of praise for it. And the location is clean, no one disturbs Miss Xie on weekdays, so you can rest assured. This king can also discuss the rhetoric article with Miss Xie from time to time."

Xie Yao's eyes flashed with hesitation. Su Wan on the side was indeed very excited when she heard it, she had heard a little about the medicinal spring of King Shou, if Xie Yaoguang could really live in it, it would be somewhat beneficial to her body.

"Linjing, you're too confused, aren't you? No matter how open the Great Calendar is, wouldn't it be ruinous for you to be in the same room with Miss Xie, and the Prince of Qingyu sneered and reprimanded: "Presumably, Miss Xie can't look down on such a thing as Qiluo Jade."

"Thank you Brother Huang for mentioning it, it is true that this king is not thoughtful and offended, and I hope Miss Xie will forgive me. This Qiluo jade is regarded as a gift of apology. This king knows that the Xie family has strong financial resources, and may not be able to look down on these mundane things, but he has a little heart, and he hopes that Miss Xie will accept it," Shou Wang replied with a smile, his tone was extremely pious, as if he had really offended Xie Yaoguang.

The crown prince is not ashamed of King Shou's behavior. If it weren't for the presence of outsiders, the two of them would probably have had another fight.

Looking at the brothers in front of them, they were respectful, modest and polite, but in fact, they were secretly fighting even more, and a sneer appeared on the lips of the two brothers. These two are really funny. After collecting his thoughts, he slowly bowed down and said: "His Royal Highness King Shou's kindness Yaoguang has a heart, Qiluo jade is a rare thing, how dare Yaoguang accept it without merit." As for the matter of the medicinal spring, Your Highness, you have a good intention, but the Xie family style is strict, and Yaoguang does not dare to cross the rules."

The prince couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw that Xie Yaoguang also rejected King Shou. As for King Shou, he also knew that Xie Yaoguang would not show his bias in front of him and the crown prince. Anyway, today is just a meeting, and the real kung fu is still to come. But at the moment, he felt that this Miss Xie was definitely not a canary raised in the back house, and she should be a minister to assist him in achieving a career.

Thinking of this, King Shou laughed, raised his glass and said: "Today, this king is negligent and punishes himself with three cups."

Su Yu, who was talking about the competition, lifted the curtain and entered, and saw that the prince and the king were all in the shed, and a trace of astonishment flashed on their faces. Xie Yaoguang caught Su Jue's expression change at this moment, and the corners of his lips curled into a sneer. Su Jue probably never imagined that the crown prince would also appear here, according to his plan, only King Shou would appear here today to meet with him. Such secret information can be known by the opponent, and the Shouwang Mansion is not airtight.

King Shou glanced at Su Jue. Su Jue hurriedly stepped forward and said, "I heard that the maid in the house said that Miss Xie is superb in the piano, and even my father was amazed. I remember ......"

"I have a treasure in my house - Green Yi." King Shou took over the conversation and said with a smile: "This king has always loved the qindao, and he has treasured a lot of guqins in the house. Isn't Miss Xie also a fellow believer?"

"Not really! I have never heard Miss Xie's piano with my own ears. However, my father was full of praise for Miss Xie, and the sound of the piano was dusty."

"That's really a coincidence," Shou Wang clapped his hands and said, "I hope Miss Xie will give me more advice in the future."

Xie Yaoguang smiled and looked at the two people in front of him, a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes. Others saw that her eyes flickered as if she was moved, and her lips pursed lightly, as if she was hesitating about something. King Shou caught a glimpse of Xie Yaoguang's appearance, and naturally knew that Xie Yaoguang was moved. He said that how could people have no desires, no matter how noble the Xie family was, they were just ordinary people. Gold and silver jewelry Xie Yaoguang can't look down on, and there is always something she likes in famous paintings and elegant music.

To recruit such talents, it is natural to do what they like.

"There is also a collection of guqin scores "Guangling San" in this palace, if Miss Xie has always been able to call Sister Wan to accompany you, absolutely no one will dare to stop you"

Su Wan, who was named, was stunned. When he wanted to speak, the prince took the opportunity to answer: "Lin Jing, you are really good, if Miss Xie really likes you, why hide it?" It's better to give it directly to Miss Xie. So you make a price......"

"How can such a peerless genealogy of the imperial brother be measured by money. Presumably, in Miss Xie's eyes, such a sheet music should be a priceless treasure."

Xie Yaoguang looked sleepy, lowering his eyes to cover the emotions surging in his eyes. The prince was about to open his mouth to fight back, and when he saw Xie Yaoguang's tired look, he was about to swallow his words back. For fear of offending Xie Yaoguang by opening his mouth indiscriminately, there is no possibility of recruiting after missing talents. Anyway, the two of them were tied today, and no one got any benefits, but they were able to leave some impressions in front of Xie Yaoguang. The two of them politely cared for a few words together and left separately.
