Chapter 341 Beautiful Spider Spirit VS Cold Ascetic Monk 45
Yu Yao and his party spent the night repairing at the Huainan Station. At the first dawn of dawn, they got ready and embarked on the road to the capital.
The capital city has been a place where dragons hide and tigers lurk since ancient times, and today it is even more abuzz with a grand royal sacrifice.
Emperor Xuanwu personally led the royal family and hundreds of officials to the Ancestral Temple to hold a grand royal sacrifice.
To comfort the ancestors and announce the joy of the return of the sixth prince Duguji (Xuanji) to the royal family.
Xuanji was dressed in a luxurious royal robe and stood in the center of the princes. There was an unworldly indifference between her brows, while still retaining the dignity and majesty of the royal family.
On Zhuque Street, there was a huge crowd, and people poured onto the street one after another, just to witness this rare royal occasion.
Children were playing among the crowd, vendors took the opportunity to sell various gadgets, and the air was filled with a festive and lively atmosphere.
At this time, Yu Yao just arrived in the capital and wanted to go straight to the house in Wuyi Lane.
Unexpectedly, the way was blocked by a crowded crowd in front.
"Madam, there are too many people in front of us and the carriage can't pass. I'm afraid we have to wait for a while."
The coachman's voice came from outside, with a hint of helplessness.
Yu Yao gently lifted the car curtain, and a ray of morning light fell on her face, reflecting her beautiful silhouette.
She raised her eyes and looked ahead, and saw a mighty royal team marching slowly.
At a glance, Emperor Xuanwu stood above Long Chu. Although he was old, he was still heroic and handsome, exuding the majesty of an emperor.
The dragon is extremely gorgeous and shines brightly in the sunlight.
Emperor Xuanwu looked solemn and looked forward.
Dugu Ye followed closely behind. The prince was dressed in rich clothes, with long hair tied up, sword-shaped eyebrows at the temples, deep and mysterious eyes, a high nose, an evil smile on his lips, exquisite facial features, and an evil temperament. .
Following them were a group of princes, each showing off his or her talents.
Xuanji is also among them.
He was dressed in the prince's court uniform and was extremely handsome. His face was like white jade, his sword-shaped eyebrows were raised, his eyes were as deep and clear as a cold pool, his nose was high, his thin lips were lightly pursed, and his temperament was cold and pure.
The bald head is particularly conspicuous among the princes, but it is not ugly. On the contrary, it looks more solemn and solemn, making people afraid to approach.
Seeing Xuan Ji and Dugu Ye, she smiled slightly and followed them with her eyes.
Uncle Zhou got off the carriage and walked over, about to speak.
When Yu Yao saw him, he took the lead and said: "Uncle Zhou, go and find out what's going on?"
"Yes, madam."
Uncle Zhou swallowed what he was about to say, responded, turned around and went to inquire about the news.
Xuanji seemed to sense something, and he looked through the crowd to this side.
I happened to see Yu Yao.
Yu Yao was also looking at him, their eyes met in the air.
Xuanji was slightly startled, feeling surprised, happy, and full of doubts in his heart.
Isn’t Yaoer in Lianhua County? How did you come to the capital?
He wanted to go over and ask what was going on.
But when I thought that we were on the way to the Ancestral Temple at this moment, it was really hard to stop and go there, so I reluctantly gave up this idea.
I thought about asking someone to find out where Yaoer lived, and to find her after the sacrifice in the Ancestral Temple.
Yu Yao winked mischievously at Xuan Ji and made another face, making Xuan Ji chuckle.
Dugu Ye was extremely confused when he saw Xuan Ji's eyes were looking somewhere and he even smiled rarely.
He also looked over and unexpectedly saw a heartless woman.
Still making faces.
Dugu Ye was surprised, happy, confused, and full of jealousy.
Although I wonder why Yaoer appeared in the capital, I also know that it is not convenient to go there at this moment, so I can only go back and ask others.
Yu Yao glanced at Dugu Ye and smiled sweetly at him, her smile was beautiful and charming.
In an instant, Dugu Ye's soul was taken away. He wanted to rush over immediately, hold the woman in his arms, and kiss her fiercely.
Seeing Dugu Ye's evil and wolf-like eyes, she instantly understood what he meant, her face turned red, and she glanced aside, no longer looking at him.
Mainly afraid of being discovered by Xuanji.
Because Xuanji has been staring at her.
The three of them just looked at me, I looked at her, and she looked at the air...
The royal procession finally passed through Zhuque Street slowly, and also passed by Yu Yao's carriage.
The people gradually dispersed, and the streets returned to their former tranquility and smoothness.
Uncle Zhou came back at the right time, walked to the carriage, and reported to Yu Yao: "Madam, I have inquired clearly. I heard that the emperor has found the sixth prince who has been separated for many years and canonized him as the King of Wei. Today is the official meeting. Go to the Ancestral Temple to hold a grand sacrificial ceremony.”
Listening to Uncle Zhou's report, Yu Yao's heart moved slightly, but she didn't say anything and just nodded lightly.
After the royal team had gone away, she told Uncle Zhou: "Go to the shop at No. 18 South Street to find Liu Yun and tell her that I have arrived in the capital. If you don't know the way, ask someone. . As for us, let’s wait at the Wuyi Lane house first.”
Thinking of something, she added, “Remember to bring the house key.”
They don’t have the key either. Can't get in.
“Yes, ma’am.”
Uncle Zhou responded and left.
Yu Yao told the driver to go to No. 28 Wuyi Lane.
The coachman responded, asked someone for directions, and then drove the carriage slowly towards Wuyi Lane.
Along the way, her thoughts were flying, thinking about the unexpected encounter with Xuan Ji and Dugu Ye just now, and ripples appeared in her heart.
The carriage moved smoothly on the old stone road. Not long after, they stopped in front of a strange house.
The gate of the house is closed tightly, and the golden sunlight falls on the heavy gate, which is simple and solemn.
Yu Yao did not get off the carriage, so she took An An and Youyou to sit in the carriage and wait.
Liu Yun bought this house in the capital for her. She didn’t know what it was like inside.
The key is also with Liu Yun. If Uncle Zhou doesn't get the key, they won't be able to get in.
At the same time, Xuanji and Duguye followed the royal team to the Ancestral Temple.
The sacrificial ceremony was solemn and solemn, with smoke lingering and bells ringing melodiously.
Emperor Xuanwu stood in front of the altar with a calm and solemn voice: "My ancestors are on high, today I will bring the crown prince Duguye and my bead, and the sixth prince Duguji (Xuanji) to worship our ancestors together. , I pray that my country, Dayu, will be peaceful and prosperous forever."
Prince Duguye lowered his eyes slightly, with many thoughts in his mind. How could Yao'er appear in the capital?
Could it be that you miss him? Did you come to the capital specifically to find him?
Then he glanced at Xuan Ji who was also absent-mindedly beside him. Thinking of Yao'er making faces at him not long ago, his face suddenly turned dark.
Stop this ridiculous idea in a blink of an eye.
Xuanji didn't know what Dugu Ye was thinking. Although he was concerned, he could only focus on the ceremony at the moment, silently planning to find Yao'er as soon as possible after the ceremony.
After the sacrifice lasted for a while, it finally ended.
Xuanji and Duguye hurriedly arranged for people around them to find out where Yu Yao lived.
Afterwards, they each found a lame excuse to say goodbye to Emperor Xuanwu. After receiving Emperor Xuanwu's consent, they all eagerly rode away.
Emperor Xuanwu looked at the backs of the two people leaving in a hurry, his expression slightly wrinkled.
I always felt that there was something fishy about these two brothers, but since everyone had left, it was hard to call them back to ask questions, so I could only lead all the civil and military officials back to the palace.
In front of the house in Wuyi Lane, Yu Yao was a little anxious waiting, and the two children were also restless.
She simply took her two children down to stretch their muscles.
Aunt Zhou was waiting at the door of the house with Goudan.
A few coachmen squatted in the corner to rest.
After waiting for a long time, the group finally saw Uncle Zhou coming back.
Uncle Zhou was sweating and panting from running.
I quickly ran closer and took a few breaths.
After his breathing stabilized, he said: "Madam, Shopkeeper Liu is very happy to know that you have come to the capital. Let me tell you that she will be here later."
As he spoke, people were already here. Take the key and walk to the house to open the door.
Yu Yao nodded slightly but said nothing.
As the door of the house opens, a quaint house is revealed in front of you.
She took An An and Youyou in.
The first thing you see is an exquisite and quiet house, with mottled green-gray brick walls and thickly carved wooden doors.
There are ancient stone wells, moss, locust trees and carved stone benches in the courtyard.
The main house is Chinese style, with yellowed tiles and old lanterns.
The house is simple and elegant, with an Eight Immortals table, dried flowers, calligraphy and paintings, the room is simple and tidy, and there is a desk by the window, just like a paradise.
Yu Yao took An An and Youyou to look around the house.
Goudan was full of curiosity about this strange place, jumping around and exploring every corner.
Bo Zhou, Aunt Zhou and several coachmen moved the luggage from the car into the house one after another.
After the luggage is placed properly.
She took out some banknotes from her purse, walked over, and handed them to the three coachmen.
"Thank you for your hard work. These coins are your reward. Thank you for escorting us all the way."
The road to the capital was long, so these coachmen escorted and helped along the way, and they also put in a lot of effort, so Yu Yao gave more.
The coachmen were very happy when they saw that the money given was more than the originally agreed price.
“Thank you, madam.”
Several coachmen thanked each other and then returned the same way.
Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou moved the luggage into the house one by one and put it away.
"Madam, this house is really nice. Shopkeeper Liu is very interested."
While Uncle Zhou was busy, he did not forget to smile.
Aunt Zhou also interjected, "Madam, I see that this house is very clean. It has all the things that should be in it. There is no need to buy anything else. It shows that shopkeeper Liu is a caring person."
Yu Yao smiled slightly and said, "Shopkeeper Liu is pretty good. When she comes, I have to thank her properly."
As soon as she finished speaking, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door.
She looked up at the door and saw Liu Yun walking in with a smile on her face.
"Why don't you write to me, madam, when you come to the capital, so that I can make arrangements in advance."
Liu Yun is dressed in a light blue dress, with a graceful figure, elegant temperament, and a beautiful face. smile.
"Don't I want you to be busy? I haven't written to you. I just talked about you to Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou, so you came over."
Yu Yao saw Liu Yun , was very happy and walked over with a smile.
