Chapter 1022 Father and son meet

Xiahou Yanyu returned to Mrs. Ru in despair.

Madam Ru just tried on a new pair of shoes and was quite satisfied.

As a concubine, the dress code should not exceed her status, but now she can wear a walking robe.

She glanced inadvertently and saw her daughter's devastated look.

Naturally, she would not have thought that something was wrong on her side, after all, the city lord had personally agreed to her just now.

So she asked: "Did your son-in-law make you angry again? It's time for you to control your temper. You can't just rely on your status as the city lord's daughter to deny your son-in-law a chance every day."

Xiahou Yanyu's eyes were red.

Mrs. Ru stopped looking at her in the bronze mirror. She turned around and sighed: "Why are you still crying? How much grievance is it that it has to be today?"

Xia Hou Yanyu said aggrievedly: "I hope something happened to me..."

This matter is not only related to her mother's life status, but also related to her legitimate concubines.

Who doesn’t want to be the daughter of the city lord’s palace?

"Tell me, what's wrong?"

Mrs. Ru really has no spare mood to deal with her daughter's willfulness today.

Xia Houyan said: "Dad is gone."

Mrs. Ru was stunned: "What did you say?"

Xia Hou Yanyu said sadly: "Dad suddenly left without saying a word. Today... I'm afraid I won't be able to come back."

"Who told you that?"

If Madam doesn't believe it, "Your brother is one month old, and your father will wait until tomorrow for big things! Besides, I haven't heard of any big things happening on the island! All the major sects are here. If anything really happens, it can be solved at the City Lord's Mansion. It's useful."

Going out of the house?"

Xiahou Yanyu choked with sobs and said, "If mom doesn't believe me, just ask dad's guards!"

Madam Ru hesitated to speak, and couldn't help but clenched her fingers: "Then your father... did you leave any words?"

For example, declare her the wife of the city lord.

At this time, Xie Jinnian came over.

Xie Jinnian saluted Mrs. Ru at the door: "Mrs. Ru, my adoptive father has urgent matters and needs to leave the house. Please ask me to complete my brother's full moon ceremony on my behalf."

Xie Jinnian's words about Mrs. Ru were like a bolt from the blue, hitting Mrs. Ru's head.

Xia Houjin did not change his title.

Xia Houjin will complete her son's full moon ceremony on her behalf.

Not a word was mentioned about her and she was promoted as the wife of the city lord.

The color drained from her face instantly.

She still didn't give up and looked at Xie Jinnian blankly: "You...your foster father...do you have anything else to explain?"

"There is indeed something."

"Say it!"

"After the banquet, thoroughly investigate Elder Hai's matter."

As if the last thread in Madam's heart was broken.

Tears of grievance burst into her eyes and she couldn't stop them.

She didn't want Xie Jinnian to see her embarrassment, so she turned around reluctantly.

But her trembling shoulders still betrayed her emotions.

Xie Jinnian said calmly: "If Madam Ru has nothing to do, I will go and entertain the guests first."

Madam Ru's nails dug into her palms: "Do you know... why the city lord left?"

Xie Jinnian said: "I don't know."

After Xie Jinnian left.

Mrs. Ru looked at the large boxes of jewelry on the dressing table and was so angry that she threw her hands and threw them all to the ground!

Xie Jinnian heard the movement in the yard.

His steps paused, his expression did not change at all, and he walked calmly and calmly to the main hall where the banquet was held.

Inside the house.

Cailian advised: "Madam, please don't be sad. The city lord must have something important to do before he leaves. The city lord has already promised you and will not break his promise. When he comes back, he will make you the city lord's wife."

Mrs. Ru said nonchalantly: "Will he?"

Cailian comforted her and said, "Madam, you have to believe the city lord. The city lord is not someone who changes orders every day. Besides, he must be feeling extremely guilty when he leaves in such a hurry. He might even think of ways to compensate you when he comes back!"

Xia Houyan also nodded: "That's right, mother, dad has already released the news, and it is not a promise to you alone. He, grandpa, and uncle also said the same. He can't break his promise in public. Besides, I can't think of it.

What reason does dad have to break his promise? It’s not like that woman named Yun Xi has come back to life!"

Cailian quickly agreed: "Yes, madam! The eldest lady is right!"

Xiahou Yanyu's expression turned cold: "Father left the house right after Baihua Palace left. Could it be that they were the trouble? Cailian, take care of my mother, and I'll inform my grandpa and uncle!"

Cailian responded: "Yes, Miss."

-

The autumn wind is bleak.

Xia Houqing took Qing Gong to its extreme.

After seeing the note, he immediately ran after it without any hesitation.

Although there are many masters in Mingxia Hall, everyone is drinking and having fun, and it is so noisy that it is not surprising that they are not noticed.

However, the guards of the city lord's palace performed their duties faithfully, and no one noticed the intruder.

This is very strange.

Or, this person is extremely talented.

Or, this person is in Mingxia Palace today.

No matter which one it is, he must find this person out!

southeast!

Xia Houqing felt the slight movement of the leaves.

He took a big step, jumped up, and swept towards the direction of the movement as if he was riding the waves.

He came to a dense forest.

The movement disappeared again.

He landed on the open space in the middle of the bamboo forest, looked around cautiously, and said with a fierce aura: "Who is pretending to be a ghost here? Come out!"

A breeze blew by, and the leaves on the right side rustled.

He raised his ear and struck out with a palm.

A figure jumped out of the sky and jumped from one big tree to another.

The figure seemed to have no intention of coming down, and just stood on the branch with arms folded.

Xia Houqing looked at him coldly: "Is this the note you wrote to me?"

The other person was wearing a full-face mask, even his chin was completely covered.

A casual man's voice came from under the mask: "I was just ordered to deliver a message."

The voice sounds a bit old.

Xia Houqing asked: "Who asked you to give it to me?"

The other person holds out five fingers.

Xia Houqing was puzzled: "What?"

The other party said: "Five hundred gold, a message."

Xia Houqing frowned, it wasn't because of the five hundred gold, which was nothing to him, but because he was in a hurry and didn't bring it with him.

The other party added: "You can also write an IOU. I brought a pen and paper."

Xia Houqing: "..."

Xia Houqing agreed.
