Chapter 28 Came to find him
Gu Lingyu sat on the ground in a daze.
Was he thrown out by Xie Anci?
Gu Lingyu stood up, brushed off the dust on his butt, and left with mixed feelings.
Xie Anci finally got some free time, and hid in the study to enjoy a moment of peace.
Xie You rushed out of the Regent Palace and came to the largest wine house in the capital, You'an House.
The shopkeeper saw Xie You and saluted respectfully. Xie You raised his hand and signaled him not to make a fuss.
"Let's talk about it when we go upstairs." Xie You said coldly.
The young man's face was full of frost, and he looked mature and stable.
"Yes." The shopkeeper looked around and hurriedly followed.
This You'an Building is the largest wine house in the capital. People don't know the real owner of the wine house, but they only know that he is someone who should not be offended.
Previously, a famous playboy in the capital made trouble here, and his legs were broken when he returned. However, the man did not come back to cause trouble, and disappeared directly.
After that, people were a little wary of this You'an Building. It's okay to come to eat, but to come and cause trouble is to ask for trouble.
Xie You came to the private room on the top floor, and the shopkeeper followed closely.
"Master, why are you here?" The shopkeeper asked cautiously.
"Prepare a mansion for me. I'll live there recently." Xie You frowned. He didn't want to go back to the Regent Prince's Mansion now.
He would tell his adoptive father after he passed the imperial examination. He was ready to kill first and report later.
"Okay, I'll prepare it right away." The shopkeeper responded quickly.
Although the handsome young man in front of him is much younger than him, he is a powerful figure.
Not only You'an Building, but most of the shops in the capital are his.
The shopkeeper dare not say that the young man in front of him is the richest man in the entire Aolong Kingdom, but at least he is the richest man in the entire capital.
"Wait, find me a courtyard closest to the Regent's Palace." Xie Youduo instructed.
"Yes." The shopkeeper knew Xie You's identity and thought that Xie You had a quarrel with the Regent.
But he was just a servant, so he naturally didn't dare to ask too much.
And Xie You didn't want others to know that he was the boss of You'an Building, so this secret was only known to him.
This shopkeeper is also very knowledgeable. If you want to survive in this capital and make money, you should ask less and do more.
"You go and do your work. I'll be fine by myself." Xie You waved his hand, signaling the shopkeeper to leave.
"Yes, just call me if you need anything." The shopkeeper said respectfully and retreated.
Xie You took a sip of tea and frowned, which was not habitual. Sure
enough, the tea outside tasted much worse than the tea in the Regent Prince's Mansion.
Time passed quietly, and in the blink of an eye it was evening.
After thinking about it, Butler Zhang came to find Xie Anci.
"Your Majesty, the young master ran away and never came back." Butler Zhang was a little worried.
This was the first time Xie You had quarreled with Xie Anci, and he ran away and never came back.
It was getting dark, how dangerous it would be at night.
"Run away and never come back?" Xie Anci frowned.
It seems that Xie You is too spoiled by me. He dared to be angry with me for so long and didn't come back.
"Forget it, let him go." Although Xie Anci said so, he still put down the book in his hand.
Butler Zhang hesitated for a while and said, "Prince, how about sending someone to look for him?"
Xie Anci was silent for a moment and said, "No, he will come back by himself."
Xie Anci didn't think Xie You could go anywhere alone.
He didn't have many friends in this capital. Usually, he was either hanging around him or reading.
However, until late at night, Xie You still didn't come back.
At this time, Xie You was lying in the yard next to Xie Anci. He was now living in a lane away from the Regent Prince's Palace.
Although he felt a little resentful towards his adoptive father, he was more reluctant to see him angry.
But only in this matter did he want to make his own decision.
He wanted to assist his adoptive father and help him solve his problems.
Instead of being an obedient adopted son all his life.
Xie You lay on the bed and looked at the empty room. There was no trace of his adoptive father here.
He didn't like it.
Xie You got up and went to see what his adoptive father was doing.
Thinking of this, Xie You jumped to the top of the wall and looked at the somewhat dark Regent's Palace.
Unexpectedly, he saw Xie Anci coming out of the study.
Xie Anci gathered his robe. He was wearing a water blue brocade robe today, which made him look more upright under the moonlight.
Where is his adoptive father going so late?
Are you going to look for Li Jinchen?
Xie You held his breath and planned to follow Xie Anci to check it out.
Xie Anci was filled with anger and irritability.
It was so late, and curfew was almost here. Why hasn't Xie You come back yet?
There should be a limit to being angry.
Xie Anci got on his horse and prepared to go look for him.
Butler Zhang, who was guarding the door, asked hurriedly, "It's so late, where are you going, Your Majesty?"
"To the palace. Go to sleep first." Xie Anci lied and rode away from the palace.
Xie You hurriedly followed, his eyes dim.
It turned out that his godfather was going to the palace to look for Li Jinchen.
Is Li Jinchen so good?
Why go to look for him so late at night?
Xie You thought of what happened last time and his face turned pale.
No, he had to stop his adoptive father.
Li Jinchen, that jerk, didn't deserve to be his adoptive father.
Xie You followed Xie Anci out of the palace, but saw that Xie Anci didn't walk towards the palace, but seemed to be walking aimlessly.
Xie Anci felt a little regretful. He didn't even know where Xie You usually went.
Every time he returned home, he would see Xie You waiting at the door to greet him. Occasionally, Xie You would go out to buy some pens, ink, paper and inkstone.
He seemed to not understand his adopted son at all.
Xie Anci stopped in the middle of the road. It was already completely dark, and no one dared to wander the streets during curfew.
Should we go back?
Xie Anci shook his head. Could it be that Xie You was kidnapped by a trafficker?
Thinking of this, Xie Anci's face turned livid.
What is my adoptive father doing? Why isn't he moving?
Xie You, lying on the roof, looked puzzled. Aren't we going to the palace?
It doesn't look like he's going to the palace.
Xie You scratched his head and saw a group of torches approaching Xie Anci.
They were a group of soldiers on night patrol.
"Who is so bold? It's curfew time now, why are you wandering on the street?" The leading soldier shouted.
Xie Anci turned his head slowly.
Everyone saw Xie Anci dismounting from his horse.
"Meet the Regent!"
Everyone was in doubt, and the leading soldier was even more trembling with fear.
He just yelled at the Regent?
Wouldn't he be killed by the Regent with a sword?
"Get up." Xie Anci said coldly.
"Did you see a young man wearing... a black robe with his hair standing up high?" Xie Anci asked, thinking about what Xie You was wearing today.
Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads.
"I haven't seen him."
"No."
"Forget it. If you see him, tell him to go back to the Regent Palace. His name is Xie You. Don't arrest him." Xie Anci was a little depressed and ordered.
"Yes!" Everyone agreed quickly.
Xie You, who was squatting on the roof, seemed to have stars in his eyes, and the smile in his eyes could not be hidden.
The godfather was not going to the palace, but to find him...
