After leaving the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Xia Shang settled another matter.
I originally wanted to have a good rest at the beginning of the new year, but things before me came one after another, and it was impossible to ignore everything I wanted.
Now that Liao Baishen has appeared, Xia Shang's carefully prepared gifts have been sent out. Future plans are earlier than expected, so Xia Shang has to make more arrangements.
The gift to Liao Baishen was just an introduction, and Xia Shang could not estimate how many things would happen in the future. He needed to think carefully about the things he might encounter in order to prepare for the future.
This matter is related to the power struggle between the three princes, and the turmoil must be quite big.
But what is even more troublesome than this is the turmoil caused by Yue Lingbo.
Speculations about this matter are not over yet. Martial arts people from all walks of life have gathered in the capital. Many martial arts masters in the martial arts world are already secretly observing in the capital. What will Yue Haitang do when she arrives in the capital?
If the legend about being number one in the world is shattered, what will happen to the capital? Will these upcoming events affect your plans?
The wind and snow are still there, and the weird weather has not stopped even after the Chinese New Year.
Perhaps it was because the heavy snowfall in the past few days had gradually dampened the enthusiasm of the people in the capital for the New Year. On the way from the Metropolitan Procuratorate to his home, which was only two-quarters of an hour away, Xia and Shang saw people standing under the eaves of their houses looking worriedly at the sky.
.
The rumors that started last year are still continuing.
This strange weather seems to herald some kind of disaster, and may even affect the fate of the country.
The ancients were originally full of awe for natural phenomena, and the weather abnormality has lasted for two months. Even modern people like Xia and Shang began to doubt whether this really portends something...
As soon as winter entered this year, the weather became weird. Xia Shang initially thought that he had encountered a rare extreme climate, and that his plan had to take advantage of such weather to work.
But as time went by, Xia Shang gradually felt that this was something unusual. The weather was so different that even he gradually felt uneasy.
A month ago, Xia Shang took the time to browse the weather records of the past twenty years, but there had never been a cold on such a scale. Xia Shang also decided that it might be due to strong cold air that had not been seen for decades.
But today, the wind and snow are still there, which is beyond Xia Shang's understanding.
Xia Shang didn't understand the weather, but he still encountered continuous wind and snow that lasted for more than two months, and there were only a handful of sunny days in the middle.
This incident made Xia Shang a little uneasy, but he was not a god and could not change the weather. Besides, there were still many things on his mind, so he could only go with it.
When I came home in the snow and wind, I found that the family next door had already started moving. I heard from Yue'er that her wife had negotiated with the neighbor and had bought the yard next door.
After hearing this, Xia Shang smiled heartily and thought to himself that his wife had a good connection with him, and she helped him finish what he just wanted to do.
It was dinner time at this time, and banquets were set up in the yard, and a cloth shed was set up to protect against snow. The whole yard looked crowded but very warm.
Seeing Xia Shang come back, Liu Ruyan trotted to Xia Shang: "Are you hungry, sir? You'll be ready in a little while."
Before Xia Shang could reply, he heard someone behind him shouting urgently: "Is Mr. Xia here? Is Mr. Xia here?"
The person who came was a young boy. He shouted and was about to rush into the yard, but was stopped by the servant at the door.
"Where did you come from? You don't even know where this place is!"
"I'm from Prince Yong's Mansion! I'm here to invite Mr. Xia!"
Hearing that it was someone from Prince Yong's Mansion, the servant at the door stepped aside.
It happened that Xia Shang was at the door, and when he turned around, he was seen by the boy who came.
The young man's face was filled with joy, and he hurried to Xia Shang, clasped his fists, and gave a deep salute: "Sir, please follow me to Prince Yong's Mansion. Your Highness, Prince Yong, has something urgent to discuss with you."
Xia Shang had already expected the invitation from Prince Yong's Mansion, which means that Liao Baican handed over the things to Prince Yong according to his request.
It's just that Xia Shang didn't expect that King Yong would go there by himself so soon.
However, Xia Shang didn't want to appear too plain, so he pretended to refuse and complained, and was dragged by the servant into the carriage to the palace.
Half an hour later, Xia Shang arrived at Prince Yong's Mansion.
This time, King Yong went out to greet him personally. Judging from the snow on his body, it was obvious that he had been waiting in the snow for a long time.
Seeing his car Jiao coming back, Li Yong ran to the front of the car without waiting for the carriage to stop, opened the curtain, and pulled Xia Shang out of the car.
This was not to show respect for Xia and Shang's etiquette. In fact, Li Yong was completely panicked and had completely ignored the so-called etiquette.
What does Xia Shang want to show?
They didn't know the same thing, so they put on an unhappy expression on their faces and complained: "Your Majesty, it's still the first day of the Lunar New Year. No matter how anxious you are, you won't deny people time to reunite with their families, right?"
"This matter is not a trivial matter, and I am really helpless. Once this matter is over, I will compensate Mr. Xia."
"Your Majesty is so anxious, what is the matter?"
"My king..." Li Yong was excited at first, but he quickly controlled his emotions. He looked around and lowered his voice, "Come with me and talk in the room."
Led by Li Yong, Xia Shang entered the palace, but Li Yong took Xia Shang through the back door and saw no one all the way there.
This was different from Xia Shang's expectation, so he asked: "Where is the princess?"
Li Yong suddenly paused at his feet, loosened his grip on Xia Shang, and his gaze on Xia Shang became wary: "Master Xia and Princess..."
"The prince is joking. There is nothing going on between the official and the princess. It's just that the princess usually takes care of various matters. It's a bit strange to see the prince instead of the princess today."
"If the princess had not left the palace today, I would not be so anxious to invite you to come."
After entering the palace, Li Yong's nervousness eased, and he pulled Xia Shang away again and said: "Although I am mediocre and inactive, I am not willing to be manipulated by women. The princess has too much control in my hands, and I have nothing to do, but what happened today
This matter is of great importance, and I don’t want the princess to know about it for the time being, so please come and give me the details.”
"It's all now. What on earth did the prince mean?"
"I have got a treasure!"
Li Yong and others were excited and quickly led Xia Shang to a small room.
The room was filled with debris, and there was a shabby table in the middle.
Li Yong took out a brocade box from the hidden compartment on the back of the table.
If you would recognize the brocade box when you saw it for the first time, wouldn’t it be your own item?
But at this moment, Li Yong regarded it as a treasure, carefully placed it on the table, and then opened it gently, revealing a seemingly ordinary but very delicate brush inside.
The shape of the brush is not unique, but the very fine carvings on the pen barrel are vaguely visible, and some gold patterns can be faintly seen by the firelight.
"This is?" Xia Shang pretended to be surprised.
Li Yong's eyes flashed with magic and he whispered: "There is no doubt that the magic pen is there!"
