Chapter 1975
Shi Anxia took Dong Xi back to the Young Master's Mansion to rest for a while, and then went to the Duke of Heguo's Mansion.
The red gate is tall and wide, and the golden plaque is brilliant.
Hanging above the door lintel of the Heguogong Mansion was the newly bestowed plaque of the Emperor Zhaowu. The four characters "Heguogong Mansion" in black background and gold lacquer were written with great force, and the imperial seal in cinnabar was still bright. Anyone who saw it would praise the Emperor's favor.
But now, Shi Anxia only felt that the golden plaque was very dazzling and annoying. He didn't even bother to glance up and just walked into the mansion.
The concierge rushed into the inner courtyard, his voice trembling as he shouted, "She's back... Her Royal Highness the Princess is back!"
Wei Cailing was overjoyed when she heard this, and she held onto the vermilion lacquered corridor column and breathed a sigh of relief.
The return of my sister-in-law means the return of the backbone. It is better to have someone to discuss things with my husband.
In the side room, Yao Sheng was staring at a bowl of cold ginseng soup.
In recent days, she has been unable to sleep or eat well because of Tang Chujun's disappearance, and her originally fair and rosy cheeks have become sunken again.
At this moment, she heard the noise outside, and the porcelain spoon fell back into the bowl with a "clang", splashing a few brown stains on the moon-white skirt, but she seemed not to notice, and stood up and went out.
Shi Chengxuan was about to leave the house and had taken half a step over the threshold when he heard the doorman announce, "The princess is back," and he stopped abruptly.
Hey, is the leaky little cotton jacket back?
He was inexplicably overjoyed. The soles of his black boots rubbed out a half arc on the bluestone steps. He turned around and walked quickly towards the inner courtyard, not even caring about going out.
When everyone was halfway through their conversation, Shi Yunqi came hurriedly back from outside. It was his mistress who had sent a servant to the Northern Propaganda Department to call him.
His sleeves were rolled up randomly, and there were traces of undried ink on his slender knuckles. It seemed that he had hurried back after receiving the news without even having time to put down his pen.
The ink is of different shades, as if writing all the worries and torments of these days on his hands.
He had only one thought: his sister was back, and his mother should be back too.
Wei Cailing and Yao Sheng looked at each other, and tacitly found an excuse to leave, leaving the two siblings to discuss the matter.
Before leaving, she did not forget to take out all the maids and old women serving in the hall, and then gently closed the carved door.
But Shi Chengxuan seemed not to notice the expressions of the crowd, and instead slumped deeper into the wooden chair.
Ever since his daughter went to Tiema City, he had been talking about going to visit her every day, but he never managed to go.
Now that I have finally seen it, I naturally want to take a careful look at it.
Shi Chengxuan hunched his shoulders and looked at his daughter eagerly, like an old cat drenched by the rain. He was just waiting for Shi Anxia to call him "father" in a soft voice, so that he could pour out all the worries and grievances he had felt in the past few months.
Who knew that his little cotton jacket was not only leaky, but also covered with ice. Shi Anxia didn't even spare him a glance, she just stood up and straightened her sleeves.
Shi Yunqi understood and stood up as well.
You're not leaving, are you? Then let's go... The brother and sister left the main hall and headed for the study.
The two men in brocade robes left one after the other, leaving Shi Chengxuan alone facing the loneliness in the hall.
Shi Chengxuan was so angry that he pulled Chang Wu's sleeve, "Look! Look carefully!" He pointed at the corridor that was already empty, "How can a son or daughter behave like this? They treat their own father like a plague!"
Chang Wu patted his back skillfully to calm him down, "Calm down, Grandpa. Recite 'my dear child, my dear child, my dear child' three times in your mind, and you will feel better."
Chang Wu's eyes rolled, and he took the opportunity to move closer and offer another suggestion, "Master, didn't you always say that you want to be a father that the princess would be proud of? Why don't you do the study and exam exam thing you mentioned the other day?"
Seeing his master's expression soften, Chang Wu struck while the iron was hot, "Let's do as the opera shows and be a calm and steady master. Talk less and read more. When the princess sees the sage books piled on your desk..."
Shi Chengxuan's eyes lit up when he heard this, it made sense, and he immediately rushed back to his study. However, he had just opened the first page of the book "Bei Yi Chun Qiu" when he used it as a cushion and fell asleep.
