The common people have no complaints, because in a while, not only General Xia will return triumphantly, but more importantly, the new emperor who has just ascended the throne will also come.

It is said that General Xia's triumphant army was the subordinates who had led the new emperor for seven or eight years.

Therefore, rather than saying that the emperor is welcoming the triumphant soldiers, it is better to say that he is welcoming his own soldiers.

In addition, I heard that the new emperor looks like a dragon and a phoenix. Not only is he handsome, but he is also full of heroism.

Many people happened to take this opportunity to catch a glimpse of the holy face.

Especially those ladies from aristocratic families who are about to enter the palace for draft, they want to have a sneak peek.

If he could squeeze in front of the new emperor and be seen by him for his beauty, maybe he would make himself the head of the four concubines without the need for a draft!
However, most of the people watching the excitement.

Not to mention the people's intentions to watch the army enter the city, anyway, the streets were bustling with people, and it was extremely crowded.

Xia Chun's family of four, grandparents and grandchildren of three generations, came to Hongcheng Building unimpeded, and were about to enter the previously reserved private room.

Coincidentally, Shi Ju and Lu Tao, who had an appointment yesterday, also came over.

"I have seen the master, madam, the third young master, and the young master Sun!" Shi Ju took the lead in saluting the four grandparents of the Xia family.

Seeing that there are many people, Mrs. Ding said with a smile: "Hey, you're welcome, come in first."

"Serve Aunt Ju."

After entering the private room, Xia Siyu, who was originally held in the arms of his third uncle Xia Siyu, yelled obediently.

Shiju smiled at him and said, "Hey, young master Sun, do you want Shiju to hug you?"

"No, no, the third uncle is tall, and he will be able to see the second uncle clearly later." The little guy waved his hands again and again.

Lu Tao went to push open the big window first, and looked with his head: "Shiju, the view from this private room is really good."

"Really?" Shi Ju also followed.

"Of course." Xia Siyu, who was holding his little nephew, curled his lips and said in a low voice without looking at who made the reservation.

Shi Ju withdrew her head from the window, followed Chunxiu who was behind Ding to pour a glass of water for each of the masters, and then stood behind Ding respectfully.

After all, Ding was her mistress before, and Shiju habitually stood behind her.

"Tomorrow, come to grandma first, have some pastries, and ask your second uncle to hold you when my second uncle enters the city."

The little grandson was very excited when he woke up in the morning, so he didn't even bother to have breakfast, so he was reluctantly fed half a small cup of lean meat and black rice porridge.

"Okay." Xia Haoming was very obedient, and said to Xia Siyu: "Little uncle, you should rest for a while, and hug Minger later."

"Hey, what does it smell like?" Lu Tao suddenly wrinkled his nose and asked.

Shi Ju stood behind Ding, so she couldn't smell it.

"Hehe, I'll smell it tomorrow too. It's delicious." The little guy was about to get off Xia Siyu's body. Hearing this, he turned his head to the window and patted his hands.

"Greedy cat." Ding cursed with a smile.

"Tomorrow is not a greedy cat." The little guy threw himself into Ding's arms with his short legs, stretched out two small lotus arms to wrap around one of Ding's arms, and swayed to defend himself.

"Okay, okay, we're not greedy cats tomorrow." Mrs. Ding said repeatedly, taking his chubby body into her arms, and patting his back.

Xia Chun also pursed his lips and picked up his beard, picked up the Ru porcelain teacup in a happy mood, pinched the lid of the teacup with two fingers, gently brushed off the floating leaves, took two sips slowly, then closed the lid, and put it gently on the teacup. In front of the mahogany four immortals table.

Xia Siyu smelled the smell of grilled skewers on the tip of his nose. He had eaten it with his classmates before, and it tasted very good.

The skewers are sold by barbarians from Dayong.

Lu Tao ate breakfast in a hurry today, and she was not full yet, smelling the spicy food, she couldn't help but hook the glutton.

Facing Mrs. Ding, she said, "Mrs. Xia, let me buy a few skewers for Young Master Sun to taste?"

Shi Ju stood there pursing her lips and smiling, the little girl was afraid that she was greedy and used Young Master Sun as a cover.

"Chunxiu, take the silver and go with Lu Tao, buy some more, and let's try it out." Ding ordered, looking at the little grandson in his arms who was eagerly waiting for her to nod.

"Okay." Chunxiu nodded and followed Lu Tao downstairs.

Lu Tao took Chunxiu down, and it turned out that directly opposite their private room, there was a 50 to [-]-year-old man dressed in a foreign race, who was roasting mutton skewers with charcoal. This old man was tall and tall. He is strong, with much bolder eyebrows and lighter eyeballs. He has an upturned mustache, a felt robe, and suede fur boots with raised heads on his feet. A machete about a foot long hangs from his waist .

Two hands each hold four or five skewers of mutton, and they are cooked on the grill.

One of them asked the price, and when he answered, he spoke Chinese fluently.

There are also many Darong people doing business here in the capital, and she has also seen many Darong people, but she has never had such close contact with them, so she must pay close attention to them.
After all, Lu Tao is a bodyguard, and he never forgets to observe people carefully wherever he goes, so he first took a closer look at the foreigner old man. Although he was dressed as a foreigner, his nails were very clean, unlike those who would deal with dirt all day long. Some are black and yellow.

Looking at his familiar technique when grilling skewers, she probably worried too much.

Can't help but make her suspicious, this grilled skewer seller doesn't sell it under other windows, but sells it in the private room squatting in Xia's house, isn't it suspicious?
Besides, half of the Jin country that was just defeated were from Darong.

Most of the captives surrendered this time were from the state of Jin, so it is better to be careful.

Lu Tao and Chunxiu each carried hot and steaming kebabs wrapped in lotus leaves and walked upstairs to the box. When they reached the corner of the stairs, Lu Tao saw a familiar person hiding in the dark corner, so he couldn't help but stop. , turned sideways to let Chunxiu go upstairs first.

This person turned out to be Wei Yi who hadn't seen him for many days.

Ever since Wei Yi came back from an expedition with Wei Ziqian, Lu Tao has never met him face to face, only once, saw his back from a distance, and passed by in a flash.

It's not that Wei Yi avoided her, but that those days were too busy.

Lu Tao's little face was full of surprises and a little bit of complaint, and on the surface he pretended to be indifferent: "Hey, who am I? It turned out to be Wei Wei."

It's just that why are you sneaking here?
Wei Yi was going upstairs to look for her, but he was ordered by the Prime Minister to remind Lu Tao to be careful not to let outsiders enter and leave their boxes at will.

I happened to see Lu Tao crowded in the place selling skewers, so I hid at the corner of the stairs and waited for her.

Wei Yi dodges and walks to the dark place on the other side of the stairs, and Lu Tao follows him.

Wei Yi stopped, and said with serious eyes: "Miss Lu, Master ordered, no matter what happens outside later, you have to stop the Xia family from leaving the box door, and you can't let anyone in."

Wei Yi: Without Miss Lu's jokes, there seems to be something missing in my heart, empty.
