Chapter 1009: Ancestor Worship in the Imperial Ancestral Temple
Xin Aowu was very happy to get a positive answer: "It's not easy to get your affirmation."

Gu Yanheng glared at Xin Aowu: "When did I ever say that about you?"

"You never said anything about me, but you are the smartest one among us. If you think it's good, then it's good."

"How about reporting this to the Jingzhao prefect?"

Jingzhao Prefecture is in charge of the capital's public security, so it is normal to say hello to Jingzhao Prefecture. It is not wrong for Xin Aowu to ask this.

Gu Yanheng shook his head: "No, if something important was really lost in the palace, then the thief must be extraordinary. Ordinary officials from Jingzhao Prefecture are no match for them. Have you ever thought about why they scouted around the Imperial Ancestral Temple?"

Xin Aowu hissed, then slapped the back of his head in annoyance: "Yeah, why didn't I think of that? You are really smart."

"But now that we've noticed something's wrong, we can't just pretend we didn't see it."

Gu Yanheng: "Who is my father?"

Xin Aowu's eyes lit up: "Yes, let's go, let's go to Prince Jin's Mansion."

How could I forget about King Jin?

After he was crowned king, many people might have forgotten that Lord Gu was also the Privy Councilor and was in charge of the military power of the entire country!

The two of them couldn't wait to come to the palace, but Gu Qingjue was not there.

"When will your father be back?"

Gu Yanheng: "I don't know about this. You have nothing else to do, so just wait patiently."

Xin Aowu followed Gu Yanheng to his courtyard. After walking a few steps, he heard the voice of a female relative. Gu Yanheng listened carefully and found that it was Princess Huai'an.

Why did she come to the palace?

Gu Yanheng's feet were somewhat out of control.

Xin Aowu: "Let's go, we are not going to wait in your yard."

"Well, I remember that I haven't greeted my mother yet. You go first, I'll be there soon."

"Eh!"

Before Xin Aowu could even complain, Gu Yanheng had already disappeared quickly.

Gu Yanheng originally thought that only Princess Huaian was there, but he didn't expect that the eldest princess was also there.

"Greetings to the Princess, Princess Huai'an."

"Mother."

The eldest princess was very satisfied with Yan Heng's care, but it seemed that her own daughter always said something bad about him.

Su Yixin asked: "Why did you come back at this time? Didn't you go to see your friends?"

"Yes, he is in his son's yard now."

Su Yixin smiled and said, "You brought the person home. Do you want to report to your mother? You don't need to inform me specifically about this. Go ahead!"

Gu Yanheng replied "yes", and when he turned around, his eyes uncontrollably looked at Princess Huaian.

Princess Huaian glanced away.

The eldest princess and Su Yixin both noticed the "little interaction" between the two.

After Gu Yanheng left, the princess spoke apologetically, "This child has been spoiled by me, please don't blame me, Princess."

"Princess Huai'an is true to her nature. We all have our likes and dislikes. It's a good thing to be able to express them as straightforwardly as Princess Huai'an."

The princess smiled helplessly and shook her head: "This is only in Kyoto City. Outside of Kyoto, no one knows her identity as a princess. In this case, who would spoil her?"

Princess Huai'an was embarrassed by what she said: "Mother, how can you talk about your daughter like that?"

"Isn't what mother said right?"

The princess wanted to scold him a few more times, but after all, there were people around, so she held back: "Forget it, that's it for today, let's go back."

Su Yixin walked them all the way to the door, and only turned around after they got on the carriage, ready to go to Gu Yanheng's yard.

"Mother, they left?" "Yes."

Xin Aowu then stood up and saluted Su Yixin politely: "Hello, Princess Shuyang."

"Well, how is your mother these days?"

Xin Aowu smiled and said, "She's fine. She either uses a knife or a gun every day. Other people's backyards are full of flowers and plants, but my mother pulled them all out and turned them into a martial arts training ground."

Su Yixin couldn't help laughing: "It seems like you have been enduring your mother for a long time, but I heard from your mother that you are the one who likes to have fun in the martial arts arena the most!"

Xin Aowu: "My Lady Princess, you really don't cooperate with me at all."

After they finished talking, they burst into laughter.

Su Yixin really likes Xin Aowu's personality.

"It's almost time for dinner, stay and have dinner."

Xin Aowu: "Even if the princess doesn't tell me, I will stay. I haven't eaten the food in your mansion for a long time, and I miss it very much."

When the lunch was served, Xin Aowu started to eat with big mouthfuls. Although he ate big mouthfuls, he was a child of aristocratic family after all, so he still had the proper manners and did not give people a bad impression.

After finishing his meal, Xin Aowu burped and said, "The food in your house is still delicious."

Gu Yanheng: "You are flattering me too much. It is said that the chef in your house used to be the imperial chef. How can his skills be bad?"

Xin Aowu: "I didn't say the food in my house is bad."

Su Yixin discovered that her son didn't talk much normally, and among his friends, it seemed that only Xin Aowu could arouse his desire to talk.

After the food was cleared away, they moved to the flower hall to drink tea. Xin Aowu drank his tea and said slowly, "We have finished the meal. When will the King of Jin be able to come back?"

Su Yixin raised her eyebrows: "You came to the mansion to see the prince?"

Xin Aowu nodded: "Yes, it's a pity that the prince is not here."

Su Yixin looked at Gu Yanheng. Gu Yanheng thought about it and decided that it was okay for him to tell his mother, so he told her what they had discovered in the teahouse.

"Mother, do you think they are suspicious?"

Su Yixin didn't see it with her own eyes, but from her description, these two people were definitely not ordinary people. Ordinary people would not have nothing better to do than observe what was going on in the Taimiao.

As for the purpose, it is still unclear.

Su Yixin put down the teacup and thought, what were they doing observing the Taimiao?

There is nothing valuable in the Imperial Ancestral Temple except the tablets and portraits of successive emperors. And it is heavily guarded, so it is impossible to enter and steal things.

That's not stealing.

But planning something?

What could happen in the Taimiao?

Su Yixin suddenly had an idea: New Year's Day ancestor worship?

Could it be related to this?

"The prince has been busy lately and comes back very late every day. I don't know where he is. I will tell him about this when he comes back."

Xin Aowu stood up and said, "Alright, Princess, I'll take my leave after bothering you for a while."

Only mother and son were left in the flower hall.

Gu Yanheng cleared his throat and asked indifferently, "Mother, the eldest princess and Princess Huai'an came to your house. Is there something going on?"

Su Yixin raised her eyebrows and said, "It's okay, can't they come to the mansion for a walk?"

Gu Yanheng: "..."

That's not what he meant?

Gu Yanheng scratched his head in a rare childish manner: "Mom, how old are you, and you still have such a childish heart."
