The afternoon after Zhu Gaoxu left the Wei Guogong Mansion.
Xu Qin was sitting in the side hall at the fourth entrance of the courtyard, commanding the entire mansion's security.
He had been feeling uneasy.
I'm afraid that Zhu Gaoxu will act recklessly.
After a while, the guard boy hurried in to report.
"Young Master, an official chariot came to the door of the mansion, and the person who came down to knock on the door was an old monk. He said he came from the palace, holding a gold medal and said he wanted to see you in person."
The gold medal displayed by the boy has a dragon engraved on it.
Dragon-shaped gold medal, gifted by the emperor.
Xu Qin was startled when he heard this, and was suddenly surprised.
Could it be that Yao Guangxiao himself came to visit in person?
Zhu Di's enthronement ceremony is about to take place. As the chief adviser, he must be very busy.
Now, it is very difficult for anyone to meet him.
But at this juncture, how could he be free and take the initiative to come to Xu Mansion?
There must be something important involved?
"Hurry up and open the main door, notify everyone in the mansion, line up on both sides of the corridor, and welcome the master!"
Xu Qin ordered.
Perhaps, this great immortal is his only magic weapon to stop Zhu Gaoxu.
"As commanded."
The doorman was confused.
He still didn't understand that the visit of this monk in black made the young master so excited that he even mobilized the troops to follow the highest etiquette.
Just now.
Yao Guangxiao stepped down from the official carriage on the horse stool. When he looked up and saw the appearance of the Wei Guogong Palace, he knew that no one had been correcting it for many years, and it showed signs of decline.
"Master, are you going to call the door?"
A member of the Jinyi Guard Qianhu bowed his head and spoke.
"No need, I will go in person, and you will stay back later."
Yao Guangxiao waved his hand.
Although he was obsessed with dragon-slaying and encouraged Zhu Di to rebel, he had great respect for those who were loyal to the emperor and patriotic.
Yao Guangxiao had long admired and respected Xu Da, the founding military god of the Ming Dynasty and the only prince with a different surname in the temple.
This was the former residence of the military god and should be treated with the highest courtesy and respect.
I saw him climbing up the steps, grabbing the copper ring on the tiger's head, and buttoning the door.
After a while, the sound of chaotic footsteps came from inside.
"Crunch..."
The side door was halfway open, and a young man in green clothes leaned out to look around.
Behind him are two majestic and extremely vigilant soldiers with swords.
The boy looked at the old monk in black in front of him with very doubtful eyes, feeling very surprised.
"Who are you looking for? Does he have a name?"
Famous post is an introduction to the status of the current wealthy and aristocratic people.
With the name card, the servants can enter the inner house and report to the master, who will select and decide whether to meet each other.
If so, what standard will be used to receive it?
If you don't see him, there will be more reasons to persuade him to quit. Just let the young man go and perform on the spot.
Yao Guangxiao couldn't laugh or cry when he heard this.
Where would he be.
"As for the name card, I didn't bring it with me. I do have a token here. You can take it and report it to your young master, saying that an old friend is here to meet you."
As he said that, he took out a golden nameplate made of pure gold and jade from his arms and handed it to the young man in green.
The boy in Tsing Yi has obviously never seen the world and is even less literate.
Facing the royal gold medal in the palace, he only felt that this piece was made of gold and jade and must be very valuable.
He quickly stretched out his hands to take it, his expression became very respectful, "Master, please wait a moment, I will go and report to my young master."
With that said, he turned around and trotted into the inner house.
After waiting for a moment, there was a burst of chaotic footsteps from inside the door.
It sounds like there are quite a few people.
"Hurry up and open the door of the mansion to welcome the distinguished guests."
A shout like a bell came out.
The tall main entrance has not been opened for many years.
There was a creaking sound, and the two doors on the left and right opened.
A lot of dust suddenly fell on the top of the door.
Under the protection of everyone, Yao Guangxiao took several steps back.
As soon as the door opened, Xu Qin walked out neatly dressed.
He folded his palms together, bowed them respectfully, and said:
"Junior Xu Qin welcomes the master!"
"Hey Mr. Xu, there is no need to pay such a big courtesy. I am here for a private visit today. I am here as an old friend, so I don't have to pay those complicated customs."
Yao Guangxiao raised his right hand slightly as a half salute, with a smile on his face.
They had only met once, and it was still on death row, but Yao Guangxiao regarded him as an old friend.
This shows that he gave Xu Qin enough face.
Of course Xu Qin knew that this was called Corporal Li Xian. He did not show off, but bent down and waved his hands, saying:
"Master, please come in."
Yao Guangxiao held his head high, raised his legs, crossed the high threshold from the main entrance, and entered the Duke of Wei's mansion with steps as if he would not recognize his relatives.
Only one Jinyi Guard Qianhu followed him, while the rest of the Jinyi Guards were on guard outside the gate.
There were a large number of people lined up on both sides of the corridor to welcome him.
All the concubines, maids, craftsmen and servants in every room in the house are waiting eagerly for him.
I saw three people walking from the gate of the mansion.
The young master bent slightly and accompanied an old monk wearing black cassocks.
Behind him was a Qianhu official wearing a flying fish suit and holding an embroidered spring knife.
I saw him holding his head high, looking straight, and looking majestic.
Jinyiwei? !
Everyone trembled when they saw it.
There was chatter on both sides of the corridor just now, but it fell silent in an instant.
Just like a sheep seeing a bad wolf, it stands on its side, not daring to breathe.
Look at the old monk again. He is tall and has a pair of piercing triangular eyes.
After entering Wei Guogong's residence, Yao Guangxiao always had a smile on his face, pretending to be kind and kind.
He seems to be very concerned about his image and takes it very seriously.
However, the expressions of the people around him made him quite embarrassed.
He didn't know yet that everyone was afraid of Qianhu, the Jin Yiwei guard behind him.
The Jinyi guards ransacked the house twice, like wolves and tigers, and they will be unforgettable for the rest of their lives.
Of course, with Yao Guangxiao's cultivation level, he didn't know how to write the word "embarrassment" for a long time.
The guests and hosts were seated on the left and right sides of the main hall, while others stood outside the door and were not allowed to enter.
In the huge main hall, only Xu Qin and Yao Guangxiao were empty.
After a while, the maid of the house brought tea, snacks, etc.
Yao Guangxiao picked up the tea bowl and took a sip first as a sign of courtesy.
He put down the tea bowl and coughed dryly, then spoke first:
"Mr. Xu, I have always admired the King of Zhongshan and the Imperial Army God for a long time. Today I visited the former residence of the Army God in person. I am very excited. Please don't be formal, Master. We can get straight to the point if we have something to say."
This time, unlike in Tianlao, both parties were considered equal, so Yao Guangxiao was particularly polite.
He also did not bully Xu Qin when he was young, relying on his old age to betray his old age.
"It's okay to get straight to the point, but I am a junior. If Master has any instructions, please tell me. I know that I must say what I must say and must fulfill my words."
Xu Qin was also honest and respectful.
The purpose of Yao Guangxiao's sudden visit is self-evident, which is to ease the awkward relationship between the Zhu and Xu families.
King Yan is about to ascend the throne, and the princess will arrive in Nanjing in a day or two.
On the eve of his accession to the throne, the first priority was for the monarch and his ministers to unite and work together to create a prosperous Ming Dynasty.
The biggest concern in Zhu Di's heart is the existence of the remnants of the Jianwen Party.
Will he make waves on the day he ascends the throne?
