Chapter 133 House Search

A sense of powerlessness welled up in her heart, how could she have such a father?

Xie Zhiwei's father, both civil and military, was selected as a Tanhua at a young age. He went to the border for five years, and in less than 30 years, he was already a fourth-rank official, and was entrusted with important tasks by the emperor. As for her father, A Dou who couldn't afford to support her, what a great opportunity today, was completely ruined by his timidity and fear of getting into trouble.

Xue Wanqing naturally would not take the blame for the revelation of the incident on her own shoulders. She intuitively felt that if her father hadn't been discouraged and begged for mercy, the emperor would have stepped down today.

As for her, not only is she recognized for her talent, she might even be conferred a title of baroness like Xie Zhiwei.

Now, everything is in vain, they have nothing to say, and they have to help the emperor lie.

Both father and daughter returned to Xue's house after scrambling and crawling. They both breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that the plaque of "Uncle Ningyuan's Mansion" on the lintel was still there.

Now, Xue Shipeng has no other choice. If his family finds out, his father and daughter not only did not bring benefits to the family, but almost dragged the whole family to hell. He might be beaten by his father and his clansmen. die.

"Sister Qing, what do you think we should do now?"

"Father, on the one hand, my father has to quickly help with the matter of the shop. If you have money, you can talk about anything. In the future, no matter who you follow, you will have to spend money; on the other hand, there is no final conclusion on this matter. On the emperor's whim, before there is a decree from the palace, according to the daughter's wishes, it is best for the father to report the good news and not the bad news."

"But, what if there is an emergency?"

"Father, my daughter just wants to ask, if father tells what happened in the palace today, whether it is grandfather or uncles, will he help father?"

Xue Shipeng shook his head like a rattle.

"That's it!" Xue Wanqing sighed inwardly. She really didn't know how the original owner's father lived to be in his thirties, married a wife and had children. His thoughts were as pure as a child's. She suddenly felt better. Tired, does she want to be a family member with such a person for the rest of her life?

Perhaps, returning from Xie's house is really not a good choice?

However, Xue Wanqing was unwilling to depend on others.

After the father and daughter returned to Xue's house with their own thoughts, one of them went to the nearest concubine's room, and the other went back to the house. After being tired for many days, no matter whether the sky will collapse tomorrow, at least, rest first some.

In the East Nuan Pavilion of Linde Hall, it is as warm as spring, but when we go outside, there is a gust of cold wind. The wind this autumn seems to be colder than in previous years. There are already two scattered stars hanging in the sky, and the night has come earlier than yesterday.

Luo Gang was waiting at the gate of the hall, saw Lu Yan coming out, hurriedly greeted him, bowed his hands and saluted, "Master?"

Lu Yan stroked the sleeves of the scarlet embroidered unicorn robe, raised his head, stood on the high palace steps, and looked at the distant night as cool as water, "It is the emperor's will to order Dongchang to search the house. Cooperate!"

"Yes!" Luo Gang cupped his fists and accepted the order.

At the hour of the hour, there was a commotion in front of Zuoye Gate. Lu Yan led the Dongchang Fanzi, and Luo Gang led the Jinyiwei. They gathered here, murderous and aggressive.

When the time came, Lu Yan glanced at the crowd, and when he saw that they were all there, he put his legs between the horse's belly, and the horse under his crotch raised its hooves and headed east.

All the people behind him also drove the horses, raising the whip in their hands high, yelling, the sound of horseshoes, dust all the way, followed closely.

Xue’s family is in the outer city, on Niuhang Street near Jinhui Gate.

From the inner city to the outer city, wherever the group of people passed, the doors were all closed, everyone avoided, and their faces changed when they heard it.

East Factory is haunted, and who is the unlucky one this time?

After about a meal, Lu Yan and the others arrived at the door of Xue's house. On the lintel was a plaque with gold letters on a black background that read "Decree to build the Ningyuan uncle's mansion". Dangling on the plaque, it looks extra ironic.

Even if the family has a title, it is nothing in the eyes of Dongchang people.

Lu Yan reined in the horse, and the horse stopped. He stared at the words on the plaque for a moment, then raised his hand and waved it lightly.

Luo Gang rushed out, and with a yell, the Jinyiwei under his command split into two, and surrounded Ningyuanbo's mansion from left and right.

When the siege was completely tight, behind Lu Yan, Father Tang Yuan drove the horse, stepped forward, dismounted in front of the gate of Uncle Ningyuan's mansion, went forward, and knocked the copper animal head on the door. ring.

"Who is it!" There was an impatient voice from inside the door, and then the door was opened, and the boy on the door rubbing his sleepy eyes stretched out his head and looked out, only to see bright lights, with embroidered spring knives , Jin Yiwei in flying fish suit held a torch to illuminate the area in front of the door as bright as day. Facing the gate, a young man in a red embroidered unicorn suit was wearing a pointed hat, white leather boots and brown clothes behind him. The Dongchang Fanzi with small sash in his clothes looked at him coldly from the front.

The boy's legs softened and he knelt on the ground, already stupid!

Eunuch Tangyuan kicked him, and shouted in a shrill voice, "Pretend to be dead, go in and report quickly, the Governor is here, why don't you let in?"

The boy was kicked awake, he didn’t want to die on the spot, so he hurriedly agreed, and after getting up, he crawled in and shouted, "Old man, son, get up quickly, Master Lu, the governor of Dongchangchang, is here..."

In the entire Ningyuanbo Mansion, the lights everywhere are on!

In this capital city, who doesn't know Governor Lu's name? Lord Governor Lu would not go to any minister's house easily, but if he went, except for those like Xie's family, there would definitely be no good things, either ransacking the house or exterminating the clan. Often, quarrels and clan extermination accounted for all, or the majority.

Lu Yan came to Xue's house at night, it would never be like going to Xie's house, but to drink a wedding.

Uncle Ningyuan Xue Pan hurried out while wearing a belt. Behind him, several sons also followed. Xue Shipeng walked last. He came out of the concubine's room in the sixth room, and his clothes were not arranged yet. He understood that his footsteps were swaying, as if he was stepping on cotton, which made him feel very uneasy.

Xue Pan first saw Lu Yan who had dismounted and stood in the cold wind at the door, and hurried forward, bowed his hands respectfully to Lu Yan, "Master Lu, it's late at night, please come and sit in the room." !"

Xue Pan was wearing a brocade gown with patterns of chickens and sheep, lanterns and trees, with a silk sash around his waist. His face, over fifty years old, had few wrinkles, a long beard hanging down his chest, and a pair of deep-set eyes flashed. Although the face is calm, there are huge waves in the heart. I don't know where I offended this powerful minister and caused such a catastrophe?

The third update!
