The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 220 Another Direction

With the pen and ink in Li Tai's study, Xuan Shijing wrote the papers to be presented to His Majesty Li Er. After finishing writing, he told Li Taiqian not to reveal the fact that he took Jinyang to Yanlailou , and then left Wei Wang's mansion, turned around the street and returned to Hou's mansion.

Back in the Hou's own courtyard, I found that Xiao Ji had already fallen asleep lying on the table in the hall of the room.

Suddenly I missed Longer so much. Xuan Shijing had no choice but to not disturb Xiaoji's sweet dreams. She spread the quilt casually and went to bed and fell asleep. Just let her fall asleep there.

I slept until dawn, and when I woke up again, there was no sign of Xiaoji on the table, probably because I woke up and left. On the table are the utensils used by Xuan Shijing for washing, and there are also things to be changed next to them. clothing.

Why do you feel like your life is so rough?
This is Xuan Shijing's feeling after Long'er left.

After washing up, he looked at the sky outside. It was still early today, so he probably could catch up with the breakfast at the house.

Sure enough, when she walked to the hall, Mrs. Wang was already sitting at the table and started eating. She looked up and saw Xuan Shijing coming over, and said with a smile: "Mother, I thought you were going to sleep for a long time today."

No matter how thick-skinned Xuan Shijing was, when he heard this sentence, he felt ashamed. He walked to the table and sat down, and said with a smile: "How can I, I have to go back to the academy this morning, by the way, mother What have you been doing in the mansion for a few days?"

Xuan Shijing knew that Mrs. Wang was bored in the mansion all day long, but she didn't know what she was doing. A normal person staying at home all day would be boring anyway.

"What else can I do, just plant flowers, do some embroidery and so on, and occasionally take the three treasures for a stroll in the garden. You child, you only want to raise the three treasures, but you take them to the study and ignore others. You None of the servants in the study house dared to go in, if I hadn’t passed by and heard Three Treasures screaming hungry inside, the poor little Three Treasures would have starved to death long ago.”

Er. Xuan Shijing was speechless, really, he went to Lushan Academy by himself, and Long'er was in Xuanwu, so naturally there was no man in the mansion to take care of Sanbao.

Xuan Shijing stretched out her head to look at Wang's feet, and saw that Sanbao was leisurely licking a bone in front of her.

No wonder there was a pot of pork meat on the dining table when I got up early in the morning, and I was still wondering when my mother's taste became so strong.

"Mother, will you feel bored staying in the mansion all the time?" Xuan Shijing asked while taking the porridge brought by the servants, picked up the chopsticks and started to eat breakfast.

"It's okay, I don't stay in the mansion all the time, I occasionally take the three treasures out of the mansion, taking advantage of the fact that the three treasures are still young now, and when they grow up in the future, they can't be taken out casually." Wang said.

Well, everyone is walking their dogs, and your old man has started to walk the tiger.

Suddenly thought, Xuan Shijing wanted to find some fun for Mrs. Wang at home, at least not having to stay at home alone and be bored day after day. Think about some TV dramas I watched before. Didn’t the noble wives of the Republic of China often get together to play together? What about mahjong, why not just make a mahjong set and ask Mrs. Shang Cheng, Mrs. Qin and Mrs. Li to come to the house together, just to make a table together.

Mahjong is the quintessence of China.

Having made up his mind, Xuan Shijing decided to draw the pattern of mahjong as soon as possible, and let someone find a craftsman to make it.

"Jing'er, how's your stay at Lushan Academy these past two days?" Wang asked.

"It's okay, the books I should read have actually been read when I was bored in the Western Regions in the early years. The most important thing is to investigate the theft of Lushan Academy. I didn't expect to find it in Yanlai Tower last night. Got a clue." Xuan Shijing replied.

"Oh? What? Did the thief go to Yanlai Building with the stolen money?"

Xuan Shijing shook his head: "That's not true. Apart from the tuition fees handed in by the students, Lushan Academy also lost other items. There was an auction in Yanlai Building yesterday, and the item appeared. It was in the hands of a merchant. Here, I think the thief stole something and sold it to a merchant." Xuan Shijing said: "The one who can do this kind of thing must be a student in the academy, and the family is not very good. Student, after all, it is not easy to be able to study in Lushan Academy, there is no need to ruin your future for such a small amount of money, mother, are you right?"

"It's true, but the thief got such a large sum of money. If the student's family is not very good, there must be traces of the whereabouts of the money." Wang said: "That's not the case. Keep all the money in your hands, there are so many people in the academy, if you are not careful, you may be discovered."

Hearing this, Xuan Shijing's eyes lit up, that's right, you can ask Gao Jun to visit the dormitory of the students while they are in class.

Although it is a little unethical to do so, in Datang, where did the theory of privacy come from? Didn't Sun Yaoting's residence have been there before?

After breakfast, Xuan Shijing remembered that he had to go to Wei Wang's mansion opposite to pick up Jinyang and go to the academy together.

He sighed secretly, there is no class in the academy this morning, if he didn't bring Jinyang, maybe he could go to the prison in Dali Temple to see Sun Yaoting, maybe he could ask something.

After leaving the Marquis' Mansion, I rode a horse to the gate of Prince Wei's Mansion. Since the two families were close to each other, the mansion often came and went. The concierge of Prince Wei's Mansion also recognized Xuan Shijing. Seeing that Xuan Shijing had arrived, he trotted all the way into the mansion. Sued.

After a while, Li Tai took Jinyang out of the palace.

Today's Jinyang is wearing a blue robe, although it looks a little old, but it is very clean. Yesterday Jinyang stayed in Wei Wangfu for one night, and he didn't bring a change of clothes at all, so he could only wear Li Tai's clothes back then. Fortunately, Li Tai's figure back then was not as plump as it is now.

"Brother Jing woke up very early today." Jin Yang said with a smile.

Jin Yang knew that there was no class in the academy this morning, and Jin Yang also knew that Xuan Shijing had a problem, that is, he liked lazy beds, and he never wanted to get up if he didn't get enough sleep when he was free.

"I'm here to pick you up today." Xuan Shijing smiled and said, "Should Si be riding a horse or a carriage today?"

"Of course it's riding a horse." Jin Yang smiled, and the servants of Prince Wei's Mansion had already pulled out a tall horse.

"This horse." Xuan Shijing saw that the horse was so handsome and strong, and then looked at Jin Yang's small body.

"Brother Jing, don't worry, Shizi Cong can understand spirituality." Jin Yang stepped forward and stroked Shizi Cong's mane. Shizi Cong enjoyed Jinyang's caress very much, and kept rubbing against Jinyang's palm.

It turned out that this was the Lion Cong awarded to Jinyang by His Majesty Li Er, and the Lion Cong was almost killed by the violent Wu Mei.

When Jinyang left the palace yesterday, he brought Shizi Cong with him. He was also accompanied by a horse official from the Nuan Pavilion. This horse official would follow Jinyang to Lushan Academy, and then he would take care of Shizi Cong.

This makes Xuan Shijing can't help but sigh, is it the child of a rich family?
