The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 2179
"So, marrying a wife and a virtuous person is a very important thing. To be honest, if I hadn't been optimistic about Jinyang's temperament, even if she was a royal princess, I would not have let her in. It has nothing to do with status. A A good-tempered headed mistress can also determine the fate of the family and whether it can prosper."

"Mother, what you said is true." Xuan Shijing bowed his head to be taught.

Facts have also proved that what the old lady said is correct.

Because Xuanqing has a very strong mother, many places are restricted.

Regardless of whether it was before Xuanqing got married or after he got married, his mother was always the head of the family. She was always strong, didn't know how to give in, worked hard in everything, and became sick from overwork.

Thanks to Xuanqing's filial piety, she did not have a miserable old age.

I don't know whether she suddenly came to her senses or was still stubborn before she died.

"So, having said so much, what do you think?" The old lady asked, "Would you like to go?"

Xuan Shijing nodded: "Go, the dead are the most important. It's been so many years. Besides, it's just a farewell. If you go, you can live with your face."

Xuan Shijing felt that the grievances of the previous generation should end here.

After so many years, it can be regarded as a knot in my heart.

Xuan Shijing asked the people in the house to prepare things, and took Gao Jun and Chang Le to Chang'an City.

Xuanqing lived in a small house in Chang'an City, and with the money he saved over the years, he could only buy such a house. Over the years, the price of houses in Chang'an City has risen faster and faster, and Xuanqing is only a member of the household department. He is a small official who is clean and honest, has few other ways to get money, doesn't have Xuan Shijing's brains, and doesn't have any talented servants under him, so he is naturally not as beautiful as Xuan Shijing.

In the small courtyard in front of you, white lanterns have been hung at the door. After entering the courtyard, you can see the mourning hall in the front hall at a glance.

Xuan Shijing walked into the courtyard, walked around the screen wall, and walked into the courtyard.

Although he is dressed in casual clothes, who doesn't recognize Xuan Shijing when he is an official in Chang'an City?

Most of the people who came to Xuanqing's house to express their condolences were also Xuanqing's usual colleagues, so it was very surprising to see that the Duke of Qi had come in person.

"Qi Guogong Xuan Shijing, come to express condolences~~"

After Chang Le and Gao Jun, who were following Xuan Shijing, gave the things to the servant of Xuanqing's family, the servant sang loudly.

Even if he didn't sing or drink, after Xuan Shijing walked in, everyone's eyes were focused on him.

"The next official pays homage to the Duke of Qi."

Officials around came over to say hello to Xuan Shijing.

"En." Xuan Shijing just nodded, then passed them and entered the mourning hall.

Xuan Shijing took three sticks of incense from the person next to him, saluted respectfully, and then inserted the incense into the incense burner.

Kneeling aside, Xuan Qing, who was wearing filial piety, kowtowed in return.

"My condolences." Xuan Shijing said in a low voice.

"Yeah." Xuan Qing also nodded.

Now this occasion is not an occasion where you can talk too much, so after exchanging a few words, Xuan Shijing left the small courtyard of Xuanqing's house.

"Grandpa, you came out so soon?" Chang Le was very surprised to see Xuan Shijing went in and came out after a short while.

"Otherwise? I still have to cry in there?" Xuan Shijing said: "Come over and pay homage, and it's over."

The friendship between Xuan Shijing and this late aunt is not as good as the relationship between the students in Zhuangzi and Li Yizhi.

Xuan Shijing has not forgotten what kind of crimes he suffered during the ten years when he left Longxi. It can be said that the culprit is the woman lying in the coffin in the mourning hall in the courtyard.

If she wasn't so cruel, why would Xuan Shijing be like this?
His uncle didn't have such a cruel heart, nor did he have so many opinions.

"Let's go, go to the Xuanwu Tower, Gao Jun, you go to the Ministry of Rites, I will wait in the Xuanwu Tower during lunch time, and let Dou Xiaoguo come to see me." Xuan Shijing ordered.

"Yes, Lord." Gao Jun nodded in response.

Come to Junchen to investigate Dou's family, this is no longer a confidential matter, people in Chang'an City also know, although they don't know how Dou's family will deal with it, but no matter what happens, Dou Xiaoguo can't do anything, otherwise Xuan Shijing couldn't explain to her daughter.

This is all for An An's future happiness.

An An's eyes are not on the Dou family behind Dou Xiaoguo, nor how powerful Dou Xiaoguo is, but on Dou Xiaoguo, who treats her wholeheartedly and likes her.

When the storm is about to come, Xuan Shijing wants to meet Dou Xiaoguo, and by the way, remind him a few words.

"Let's go, Changle, let's go first." Xuan Shijing said.

"Yes." Chang Le replied.

Xuan Shijing and Chang Le got into the carriage, Chang Le drove the carriage towards Xuanwu Building, while Gao Jun turned and walked towards the Ministry of Rites.

At noon, Xuan Shijing asked the servants of Xuanwu Building to arrange meals on the fifth floor, and Dou Xiaoguo also arrived as scheduled.

"My son-in-law has met his father-in-law."

Dou Xiaoguo was still in official uniform, came here in a hurry after coming out of the Ministry of Rites, and didn't even have time to change his clothes.

"Sit down, it's just a light meal, don't be so polite." Xuan Shijing laughed.

"Okay." Dou Xiaoguo responded, sat opposite Xuan Shijing, lifted the flagon, and refilled Xuan Shijing.

"Come on, let's eat first." Xuan Shijing said.

Weng and son-in-law moved their chopsticks, and Xuan Shijing talked about Junchen's investigation of Dou's family after they were full of wine and food.

"Lai Junchen is checking your house, you know about this?" Xuan Shijing asked.

Dou Xiaoguo nodded and said: "I know, but my uncle's side should not be idle. It has been several days and I haven't heard anything."

"Although this is the case, don't be careless." Xuan Shijing said: "You must have heard of Lai Junchen. He is a person who can make trouble without trouble. It's also unlikely that the Dou family has nothing wrong with them, but for any big family, don't say that you are clean, and you are a member of an aristocratic family, you should know how many sects there are in it."

"Yes." Dou Xiaoguo responded.

"I happened to be in Chang'an City today, so I'll meet you by the way, and remind you, no matter what happens to the Dou family, it won't involve you for the time being. Do what you should do now, don't need to be distracted, and don't worry about anything else." Xuan Shijing said.

"Yes, my son-in-law understands." Dou Xiaoguo said.

"Take a ten thousand step back, even if something happened to the Dou family, nothing will happen to you." Xuan Shijing said: "Your father-in-law and I have been in the court for so many years, at least I can still protect myself." son-in-law."

"Yes, son-in-law, thank you father-in-law." Dou Xiaoguo got up and bowed to salute.
