The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 177 Accompanying
Hearing this, Mrs. Wang shook her head, and said with a smile: "This courtyard is only completed, and the things inside are not fully prepared, so it is uninhabitable. Don't mind, you can't be negligent."

"Yes, mother, don't worry, my boy knows that, two days ago, Dai Zhou gave me the case of Lushan Academy, just to hold me back from investigating Sun Yaoting's matter, otherwise it wouldn't be such a coincidence , An unsolved case that has passed for more than half a month, is handed over to Hai'er, an official who has just arrived at Dali Temple, his intentions are obvious."

"Then what are you going to do about this case, Jing'er?" Wang asked.

Xuan Shijing: "Check it out, since the case is in the hands of your son, let him check it out, and he will be worthy of the title given by His Majesty. Mother, have you heard of the case at Lushan Academy?"

"This mother heard that the academy lost money, right?" Wang said.

"That's right, Jingzhao Yin's Mansion went to investigate for a while, saying that there were too many students involved, and it was impossible to start. At that time, Mr. Xiao Yu was giving lectures in the academy, and many gentlemen from the academy brought students there. Jingzhao For this reason, the Yin family handed over the case to Dali Temple." Xuan Shijing said: "But when I was chatting with Qian Dui that day, I mentioned the tuition fees paid by the students of this academy. Steal them all, relying on manpower alone, it is impossible to move the money out of the academy silently."

Wang: "Jing'er suspects the actions of the internal thieves?"

"That's right, but why is Jingzhao Mansion silent about this?"

"Jing'er doesn't need to worry about this matter, just go and investigate, you still have Dai Zhou on top, since this case has been assigned to you by Master Dai, no matter what you find out, Master Dai will handle it for you. " Wang said with relief.

The current Xuan Shijing, because of the complicated environment in Chang'an, always thinks too much. This kind of cautious temperament makes Wang's both gratified and distressed.

Xuan Shijing nodded after listening to Wang's words, that's right, even if this matter is found out, there is still Dai Zhou behind him, and Dai Zhou can't do it, at worst, please trouble His Majesty Li Er again, it's just a trivial matter Why should I worry too much about a small theft case? It seems that I have been too nervous these few days because of Sun Yaoting's matter.

Xuan Shijing, Mrs. Wang, and Zhong Zishuo walked around the courtyard, chatting, and walked around for more than half an hour before they finished shopping around the new courtyard on the Zhuangzi.

"Uncle Zhong, the construction of the courtyard on this village was paid for by money?" Xuan Shijing looked at Zhong Zishuo who was on the side.

Zhong Zishuo nodded and said, "Exactly, Feng Hao suggested that when this yard was built, and then the money was transferred from the chamber of commerce in our house. Later, when His Royal Highness Wei Wang came to the village, he was short of work again. People from the Ministry came to supervise the construction."

It must have cost a lot to build such a large courtyard. It seems that Qiandui has been secretly running business in the Western Regions with Erxianzhuang all these years, and he has indeed made a lot of money. It is ridiculous that some people in Chang'an City are still staring at the bright side. If they don't let go of the small and poor business in the government, how can they know that the real big money is just not letting them see the pile of money.

Xuan Shijing came to Zhuangzi so suddenly this time, the kitchen in the yard didn’t have time to prepare ingredients at all, and Zhong Zishuo went to the farmer’s house in Zhuangzi to search for the ingredients for lunch. It was a simple meal, but Xuan Shijing’s mother and son ate it. happy.

Seeing her mother's cheerfulness all day today, Xuan Shijing felt even more guilty. She hadn't been with her mother for more than ten years, and there were several more than ten years in her life.

For more than ten years, he had no choice but to be separated from his own child. This parting, this yearning, this deep love deeply infected Xuan Shijing.

"Mother, can we come to Zhuangzi for a walk when we have free time?" After dinner, Xuan Shijing took Wang to the edge of the river built on Zhuangzi for a walk: "Mother, look, there are peach blossoms on both sides of the river. Trees, the peach blossoms will be in full bloom in March and April next year, and the scenery here must be beautiful at that time."

Seeing Xuan Shijing's high spirits, Wang said with a smile: "Success, as long as you are free, Jing'er, mother will accompany you out for a walk. It is rare that you have the heart to want to accompany mother."

Xuan Shijing smiled and said: "Mother, to be honest, sometimes my son really wants to be like an ordinary official young master, fighting cockfights, walking the dog, and doing mischief in Chang'an City, but it won't work. In our huge Hou Mansion, from now on, my son will be the pillar of the Hou Mansion, the head of hundreds of households in our village."

"Jing'er has been very sensible since she was a child, and sometimes my mother wonders whether God has pitied my mother for what happened in her previous life, so she gave me such a sensible and smart son." Wang said with emotion: "Although I have experienced wind and rain these years, There have been a lot of troubles, but mother has always been grateful to God in her heart. Although he took my husband away, mother will not complain. This is fate. My wish is to watch you grow up safely, marry a wife and have children. When you were young, your mother expected you to become a talent, but now, your mother has also seen your ability, but she regrets it. Now you should be At an age where you are happy to study and play, but now you want to be involved in this bottomless court, trying to prevent those who want to harm the Hou family, you have to bear too many things that you shouldn't have to bear at this age."

It turns out that someone has always understood what I have endured. Xuan Shijing sniffed and smiled: "Mother, my son is doing well now, with Mother by his side, and Long'er, Gao Jun and Shi Hu's gang , Worry about the life of the Hou Mansion every day, help Dali Temple to investigate the case when you have nothing to do, you are lucky if you find out, they can't say anything if you can't find out, eat and drink with the princes Wei Wang and Wu Wang when you are free It's good to drink, so, mother, don't think too much, my son is not tired at all."

"Yes, yes, as long as our family's life is good, mother will be happy." Wang said with a smile: "If Jing'er introduces a daughter-in-law to mother, mother will be even happier."

Wang and Xuan Mingde can be regarded as free love, so Wang does not want to interfere too much with Xuan Shijing. Anyway, Xuan Shijing is still young, and it is okay for me to worry about it myself after two years. No, since Xuan Shijing returned to Chang'an, Wang Shi began to pay attention to the news of the ladies and gentlemen in Chang'an City. Although he said that he was not in a hurry, it was always right to wait and see first.

Naturally, Xuan Shijing didn't know about these things, if he knew, he would definitely be ashamed, a 14-year-old child, in future generations, is considered a puppy love, in the Tang Dynasty, parents had to make an engagement for Zhang Luo, this world is still quite crazy.

Accompanied by her own mother on the Zhuangzi for a leisurely stroll for most of the day, in the middle of the afternoon, the Wang family was a little bit sleepy, so Xuan Shijing ordered everyone to harness the carriages and go back to the Marquis' Mansion.

As soon as he got off the car at the Hou's mansion and entered the mansion, His Majesty Li Er's imperial edict arrived at the Hou's mansion.
