Tao Yuwei had a delicious meal with her aunt Ji Tong at the famous Xiangmanlou. She took the opportunity to comfort her aunt who was worried about her son, and then the two parted ways.
"Princess, would you like to go back home for lunch now?"
The head maid Yunxiao saw her master dozing off in the private room of Xiangmanlou and asked with concern.
Tao Yuwei forced herself to open her sleepy eyes and thought for a moment, "Go send a letter to the Third Princess, inviting her to come. Tell her she'll regret it if she doesn't come."
It was a hot day, and she didn't want to go to the palace again in such a hot weather.
With Xiao Daifu's thoughts, she will definitely come.
I don’t know whether the eagle she sent out found the whereabouts of her two brothers.
What worried her most was the woman that her cousin brought with him after returning to Beijing.
If not handled properly, it will bring disaster to the entire Weiyuan General's Mansion.
Yunxiao immediately took the order and left.
Only Bai Shuang was left standing behind her to serve her.
While the third princess had not arrived yet, Tao Yuwei closed her eyes again, intending to take a nap for a while.
At this moment, she heard a lot of noise coming from the next box.
"Yunxiao, go out and see what's going on."
Yunxiao bowed and opened the door of the private room to check the situation.
It was at this time that Tao Yuwei clearly saw a number of Xiaoyu Guards wearing uniform black clothes running hurriedly downstairs. They were probably here to catch someone, but it seemed that the other party had escaped by jumping out the window.
Yunxiao went out to ask the waiter at Xiangmanlou about the situation, but found out nothing.
When I returned to the private room, I saw that my master was still awake. He was standing in front of the window, looking down.
Tao Yuwei didn't recognize Xiao Yuwei, the man who led the team to capture people.
Soon, the Xiaoyu guards downstairs dispersed.
Tao Yuwei sat back down at the round table and asked about the information Bai Shuang had found out.
"My Lady, the waiter at Xiang Man Lou is very tight-lipped. No matter what I ask him, he always shakes his head to indicate he doesn't know."
"No problem, I'm just curious."
While the master and servant were talking, two figures came down from the third floor, moving hurriedly and walking very fast.
When the two figures disappeared downstairs, they were seen by Tao Yuwei who was looking out through the window from time to time.
"The backs of those two people look suspicious. Could it be that Xiao Yuwei came to arrest them just now?"
When she wanted to see the other person's appearance clearly, he had disappeared.
Tao Yuwei immediately became interested.
If she could help the villain catch these two people, Xiao Lichen would owe her a favor. When the time comes, if he needs her help, he probably won't refuse her.
Tao Yuwei mobilized her mental power and quickly found two sparrows outside.
[Help me catch up with the two men who just left Xiang Man Lou and find their whereabouts. I'll come back and give you some white rice.]
The two sparrows nodded, chirped and flew away.
The two men who left Xiangmanlou walked around in a nearby alley and came to the gate of an inconspicuous courtyard.
Not long after, he opened the door, walked in quickly, and the door closed instantly.
As soon as you enter the house.
The bearded man in the lead turned around and asked his men in a cold voice.
"These Xiao Yuwei are omnipresent. It seems that Xiao Lichen has revitalized the Xiao Yuwei."
After being disguised, King Junshan Xiao Long was extremely dissatisfied with Xiao Yuwei and was even more wary of Xiao Lichen.
As pawns in the hands of the Emperor of the Great Zhou, the Xiaoyu Guards were put aside during the reign of the previous emperor. Their only duty was to protect His Majesty in secret.
Later, when his nephew Emperor Jianchang ascended the throne, he would occasionally help His Majesty deliver messages.
It was not until Emperor Jianchang appointed Xiao Lichen, the crown prince of Prince Yong's Mansion, that the power of the Xiaoyu Guard gradually expanded. Judging from the current momentum, the power of the Xiaoyu Guard has surpassed the scope of its responsibilities in all previous periods of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
It reached the point where they could monitor all officials, gather information from below, and arrest people everywhere.
Guard Fei Qiong said thankfully, "Fortunately, the prince arranged for people to lead them away in advance."
This time when I came to Beijing, I felt like I was hitting a wall everywhere.
Xiao Long removed the fake beard around his mouth and said in a deep voice, "After we meet that man, we will leave the capital as soon as possible."
He thought for a moment and then asked, "Is it safe to arrange for the Fourth Prince to stay?"
Fei Qiong nodded affirmatively, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, that place is absolutely safe, but..."
Xiao Long looked over with a stern expression. Fei Qiong's heart trembled as he said, "It's just that the Fourth Prince is unwilling to cooperate. He keeps clamoring to enter the palace to see His Majesty."
"Add more medicine to his food and take him away from the capital as soon as possible."
Xiao Long sighed. He took the opportunity to sneak into the capital, but was still discovered by his eldest nephew.
He must meet that person in person and make plans for the future.
Otherwise, this trip to the capital would not only fail to achieve its purpose, but would also result in heavy losses.
"Yes, I will pass on the message right away."
Fei Qiong just turned around and was about to walk out of the house when Xiao Long stopped him.
"No! It's not safe here anymore. Hurry, get out of here."
Xiao Long trusted his intuition very much. He quickly put a beard on the human skin mask and left quickly with the guards.
Not long after they left, two sparrows flew into the courtyard.
However, the house is deserted.
When they flew back to Xiangmanlou and landed on the window of the private room where Tao Yuwei was, she was already chatting with the third princess who had come out of the palace to meet her.
When Tao Yuwei saw two sparrows flying over and received the news that someone had been lost, she was very disappointed.
The villain Xiao Lichen is very capable, and without her help, people might be able to find those two people.
