The Dingguo Mansion is located in the west of Shengjing City.

There, including the Zhuangyuan Mansion itself, is where the magnates of the capital live, not only the Dingguo Mansion but also many other dignitaries who have been knighted and won the king.

Wei Shaoguang and Xiaoxi each took a sedan chair and swayed to the door of the Dingguo Mansion.

handed over the name post, reported the name, and they were greeted warmly and secretly.

Along the way, he followed the little maid into the Dingguo Mansion.

This is a large area, exquisitely arranged mansion, the rockery in the house is connected to the lake water is clear, the exotic flowers and plants are maintained next to the water pavilion corridor, the eaves gray wall is hidden behind the green trees and flowers, in the gradually colder late autumn can also see a lot of blooming flowers and plants, Wei Shaoguang had to compare his own florist with the gardener of the Dingguo Mansion, and finally eccentrically thought that his own florist status is noble, elegant temperament, handsome appearance, and victory!

Wei Shaoguang, whose thoughts had gone astray, smiled awkwardly in his heart, uncovered the stubble, and looked at the scenery in the mansion along the way.

Soon he was taken to a separate building.

"Two adults, this is the place where the old man is recuperating, please come in."

This is an independent three-storey building, facing the water facing south, surrounded by rockeries, lush green trees and flowers, beautiful scenery, birds and birds, but it is a very suitable place to recuperate.

Before entering the door, the noisy sound inside had already come out through the door, Wei Shaoguang and Xiaoxi glanced at each other, smiled slightly, Shaoguang stretched out his right hand to invite Xiaoxi to walk in first, and then she walked in with an easy-going attitude and a smile.

As soon as you enter the door, you will see a large wooden screen, and when you go around this screen, you will see a room full of panicked people.

Men and women gathered around the old grandfather's hospital bed, crying and mourning, full of sorrow, and there were maids and maids carrying golden basins and medicine bowls back and forth.

Wei Shaoguang and Xiaoxi stood at the screen, making way for those scary people who were in a hurry, and the two of them glanced at each other again, Shaoguang smiled awkwardly, put his hand into a fist to his lips, and coughed heavily.

The cough finally caught the attention of a middle-aged man.

Mo was about forty years old, wearing a plain brocade robe, with a haggard face, and immediately walked over after seeing Wei Shaoguang and Xiaoxi, pulling out a stiff smile and bowing his waist, "Lord Yan, Father-in-law, please forgive me for the poor hospitality in the Guogong Mansion, it's really ...... Today there is an emergency, my father ...... He! Alas! ”

"It's okay, Lord Yao, Xiaguan will not embarrass you because of this little thing, Xiaguan has also heard about the affairs of the Guogong Mansion, you can rest assured that Xiaguan came with Gonggong Xi today to hand you the way, don't worry!"

Wei Shaoguang smiled and helped him up.

This person is the eldest son of the Dingguo Mansion, called Yao Bingwen, the current official worship from the second grade of the official Guanglu Doctor, as for why it is the eldest son, it is because the children of the Dingguo Mansion lineage survived less, the eldest son died young, and only a few girls in the lineage grew up, so the eldest son born in the third room is the future heir to the title.

"Lord Yao, the miscellaneous family came to your mansion on the orders of the emperor, so don't put the cart before the horse."

Compared with the easy-going light of Shaoguang, Xiaoxi is a little difficult to speak, and the two of them are singing red and white, but they also cooperate strangely.

"Yes, yes! Hi Father-in-law, you're right! Please also here, please, there is a vacant room next to it, be quieter, please come in with me, if you have anything you want to ask, just ask. ”

He stretched out his hand to the ear chamber on the side, Wei Shaoguang nodded, turned around and let Xiao Xi in again, "Father-in-law Xi, please go first!" ”

Xiao Xi was not polite, shook off the dust resting on his elbow, and walked in first, followed by Shaoguang and Yao Bingwen.

"Someone! Serve tea! ”

Yao Bingwen beckoned the maid and told her to serve two good teas.

The little maid nodded and ran away quickly, Yao Bingwen stretched out his hand to close the wooden door, walked to the main seat and sat down, and said to the two of them with a somewhat humble attitude: "Presumably the little sister should have communicated with the adults a little bit, right?" ”

He was referring to Concubine Li.

Wei Shaoguang nodded, "Xia Guan has indeed seen Concubine Li. ”

"Alas! When something like this happens at home, it's just a shame for my little sister, it's me, who is an older brother, who didn't take care of this family! Otherwise......"

Yao Bingwen seemed to be very guilty, his brows locked deeply, and he let out a long sigh.

Seeing this, Wei Shaoguang showed a comforting smile, and said to him with a smile: "Lord Yao, you don't have to blame yourself so much, we have already heard about the matter of Grandpa Guo, and the most important thing now is to quickly recover the fragments of the Sealing Talisman, once such things fall into the hands of people with bad intentions, it will be a major event to destabilize the country's society!" Please also ask Lord Yao to focus on the overall situation, as long as the fragments of the Sealing Talisman can be recovered, Grandpa Guo can escape this catastrophe. ”

"Please also ask Lord Yao to cooperate with the investigation of the lower officials, if the lower officials are offended, please don't blame the lower officials."

"Where, where! Lord Yan is willing to think about my country's government, and I should thank you, so how can I blame it? ”

"Hahahaha! With Lord Yao's words, Xia Guan has a score in his heart. ”

Wei Shaoguang laughed a few times, and it happened that at this time, a little maid walked in with tea and pastries.

"Lord Yao, there is something unclear about the lower official, please be able to help the lower official solve his doubts."

The little maid bowed down and exited the room after serving tea, Wei Shaoguang glanced at the door and then withdrew his gaze, looked at Yao Bingwen and said, "It may be a little presumptuous, my lord, may I ask when the Liu family usually goes out of the mansion for private meetings?" And on what basis did you leave the house? Have you ever noticed where she often goes to have private meetings with Ye Qiu? Please also ask Lord Yao to tell the lower officials truthfully. ”

"This ......" Yao Bingwen didn't seem to expect Wei Shaoguang to know so much news, surprised and hesitated for a moment before answering with an embarrassed smile, "That Liu family mostly picks at the beginning of the month, by going out to buy rouge gouache to relax, and the place she goes to is also the place she usually goes, but there are also times when she loses it, she will block her subordinates and say that she walks alone, and then comes back when it gets dark." ”

"And where will she go?"

"Near the Eighteen Hutongs, the place to buy jewelry and rouge gouache is a shop called 'Longcuifang', which is located next to Suzaku Street, but it is very close to the Eighteen Hutongs, and the Liu family has the habit of listening to operas, and will always go to the opera garden to listen to the opera for a while."

"Who would have thought! She's just going to get along! That Ye Qiu sang martial arts in the opera garden! ”

Yao Bingwen seemed to be very angry when he mentioned the nineteen aunts, Wei Shaoguang smiled and nodded, "Xiaguan understands." ”

She looked at Yao Bingwen with a gentle smile on her face, which always made people feel that she was a very reliable and extremely approachable person, Yao Bingwen's anger slowly dissipated, and there was a little shame in her eyes when she looked at Wei Shaoguang, as well as a deep look and scrutiny, Shaoguang didn't care, just smiled and spoke softly:

"Lord Yao doesn't have to be too angry, then the Liu clan and the thieves stole the royal talisman, which is a felony of beheading, and after being arrested, she and Na Yeqiu will definitely hang at the gate of the city as a warning."

"However, there is a sentence that the lower officials still have to admonish, the old grandfather Rong Ma has made great achievements in his life, and he is a well-known figure, and the lower officials do not want to see the appearance of the grandfather of the country in the evening, so ...... If you should decide, you will decide! It is better for Lord Yao to make a decision as soon as possible on matters in the house. ”

The words have come to this point, whether it is hinting or reminding, Wei Shaoguang will stop and say no more. And Xiaoxi on the side didn't say much during the whole process, just sat quietly on the side and listened to the two talking.

When the conversation was almost over, there was a sudden scream outside, followed by panicked footsteps, and the chatter outside the door gradually became louder.

"Presumptuous! What do you do? Just came in recklessly? What's going on with the outside? ”

Yao Bingwen shouted at the servant who slammed the door and walked in.

The servant "Bang" quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed and begged for mercy: "Big boy! Oh no, Grandpa Guo! He's dying! ”

"What?!"
