"Good birds choose trees to perch, Mr. has exhausted his affection, you don't have to feel guilty, I don't know what Mr. plans to do next?"

Wei Rong lowered his head and smiled: "The situation is dark, and the career is difficult, I might as well learn from my teacher, find a quiet place, be a teacher, and preach and receive a career." ”

At that time, Xiao Yuzhi was disgusted with the deceit on his career, and he was willing to go against Xiao Pei's wishes, and the father and son turned against each other, leaving the Xiao family with his wife and a pair of children, and went to Qinghe County to give a lecture.

Xiao Qingyan raised the teacup and said, "Then Qingyan will replace wine with tea and practice for Mr." ”

"Thank you."

Wei Rong is far-sighted, cautious and cautious, and is really a rare talent.

Xiao Qingyan could see that he would not really be a teacher, he was only in his twenties, he was full of ambitions, and he was counting on his ambitions, and he probably already had a new place in his heart.

Xiao Qingyan had the intention of recruiting Wei Rong, but she herself was only a fifteen-year-old teenager now, and she had no convincing power to keep such a talent by her side.

I just hope that the two of them will not become enemies in the future!

After separating from Wei Rong, Xiao Qingyan took a rough inventory of all the shops, and when she came out of the last shop, it was already dark.

When I returned to Xiao's house, I happened to meet Xiao Yuruo who was going out by car.

"It's so late, where is the third uncle going?"

Xiao Yuruo stroked his precious green beard, and he didn't know if it was because of the lantern under the door, his face looked ruddy and spiritual.

"King Huaining has a banquet tonight, and most of the scholars in Beijing have received invitations, and my Xiao family is also among them."

"King Huaining? King Huaining also entered Beijing? Xiao Qingyan's heart sank.

King Huaining is the uncle of the king of Guang'an, and his status in the royal family of the Great Jin Dynasty is respected.

Xiao Yuruo smiled proudly: "Jiulang, as the young master of the Xiao family, your news is inevitably too delayed, today at noon King Huaining should be recalled to Beijing, as soon as he entered Beijing, he was named Dazai by His Majesty, recorded Shangshu affairs, and assisted the government with Taiwei Yang, and was also given the grace of going to the palace with a sword and entering the court." ”

"Captain Yang? Mo is not Yang Xun, the nephew of Empress Dowager Yang? "Taiwei Ji has just been wiped out, is the Yang family so eager to take the position?

Xiao Yuruo said: "It is Yang Xun, although Yang Xun replaced Taiwei Ji, in my opinion, the Queen Mother may be interested in supporting the clan and balancing the Yang family......"

Speaking of the back, Xiao Yuruo was already talking to himself, he suddenly came back to his senses and coughed: "What I am doing with you, you may not understand what you say." ”

Xiao Yuruo got into the carriage with his tail cocked, and Xiao Qingyan couldn't help but roll his eyes under the cover of the night.

I don't understand the situation is you!

She scolded angrily in her heart, furrowed her brows, and her eyes fell on Qin Er, who was accompanying her beside the carriage.

Xiao Qingyan reached into his sleeve and touched it, and took out a paper bag: "Zhou Shu, you find a clever person to follow, and let him quietly tell Qin Er that there is an opportunity to secretly put this into the third uncle's wine at the banquet, and it is best to put it in the first glass of wine, otherwise I am afraid that the third uncle's tail will be overwhelmed, and even his braids will be warped." ”

Zhou Shu wondered, how much medicinal powder was still hidden in the young master's sleeve? The medicinal powder that killed Dong Ting last time was also found from inside.

But when he heard the braids, he immediately lost his mind and almost blurted out: "Braids? ”

has been following the young master for a long time, and he also knows a lot about the strange words that the young master pops up from time to time.

"Are you saying that the third master may be in danger tonight?"

Xiao Qingyan urged: "Go quickly." ”

Zhou Shu didn't dare to delay, and asked quietly: "Do you think it's appropriate to find that kid Qian Feng?" ”

"Yes."

After returning home, Xiao Qingyan went straight to his mother's Qingping Residence, but he was absent-minded on the way.

The third uncle with the cocked tail may be right, the Empress Dowager Yang wants to use the power of the clan to balance her mother's family.

In recent years, the Yang family has taken advantage of the power of the Empress Dowager Yang to lean towards the government and the opposition, and the ambition is obvious, but the Empress Dowager Yang is old after all, if the power of the Yang family is allowed to swell, Yang Xun will definitely seek to usurp the throne before the death of the Empress Dowager Yang.

When the Qin family changed its surname to Yang, the queen mother was no longer the queen mother, and a hundred years later, the Yang family would not enshrine an old aunt in the ancestral hall of the temple.

But before balancing the Yang family, Empress Dowager Yang was bound to weaken the clan first. You must know that those powerful clan princes are more threatening than the Yang family, and they are qualified to fight for the throne justifiably.

King Huaining, King Guang'an, one has the status of a clan, and the other has the military power to garrison Kyoto, Empress Dowager Yang wants to take advantage of the fisherman, right?

Tonight's banquet of King Huaining will definitely have some scholars absent, and only a stupid moth like the third uncle will be in a hurry to fly up and burn the hot stove of King Huaining, but as everyone knows, this is burning with his own life!

As soon as Xiao Qingyan arrived at Qingpingju, a maidservant girl hurriedly came out of the courtyard.

"Jiurou, you're back!"

Xiao Qingyan saw that the maid goddess was wrong, and asked, "What's wrong?" Could it be that the sixth sister has an accident again? ”

The east and west courtyards have been cleaned up, and the others have also moved out of the north courtyard, but the third aunt Yuan refused to take Xiao Yongning back, for fear that Xiao Yuruo would be unfavorable to her daughter again, as if she was relying on Xiao Qingyan.

"No, it's not the sixth lady, the sixth lady took the medicine today, and she has been very quiet, not crying or making trouble." The maidservant was full of worry and said, "Yes, Madame, Madame has not come back since she went to Xu's house in the morning." ”

"What? You say the mother hasn't come back yet? ”

"Yes, the slave is thinking about whether to go to Xu's house and ask."

"I know, I'll go to Xu's house in person."

At this time, it was already night, and the sky was full of stars, and it was said that the ceremony should have ended a long time ago, and the Xu family had no reason to leave the female guest until now.

When he arrived at Xu's house, Xiao Qingyan didn't see the carriage that his mother was riding in when she traveled outside the gate of Xu's house, nor did he see the carriages of other guests, it was empty.

She didn't knock on the door herself, but only let the guards who accompanied her go. As her mother said, her identity is not suitable for rushing to the door of the Xu family.

Soon, the guards returned.

"Young master, the Xu family's disciple said that all the guests left after the luncheon."

Gone in the afternoon?

Could it be that my mother had gone somewhere else?

Xiao Qingyan thought for a moment and said to the guards: "You stay here, if you see your mother, come back as soon as possible and report it." ”

Before leaving, she ordered the guards again: "Try not to let the Xu family notice you." ”

The guards should be fist-hugging.

When he returned home, Xiao Qingyan deliberately asked the coachman to go around the city and go to several places where his mother frequented, but he didn't see Wang Yun and the Xiao family's carriage.

When he returned to Xiao's house, it was almost close to Hai Shi, and Zhou Shu was waiting outside the gate with a lamp.

Xiao Qingyan got out of the car and saw Zhou Shu looking back.

"Young master, didn't you pick up Madame?"

Xiao Qingyan's heart sank: "Mother hasn't come back yet?" ”
