Xie Pinggang’s expression became more and more serious, as if Xie Qiao owed him 10,000 taels of silver.
Today, he still had to go to the criminal division. With such a cold face, his colleagues were so scared that they did not dare to approach him.
Xie Qiao’s trip home was just to see her brothers, sister and father, and then she went to her own courtyard to chat with Chun Er and Granny Wan, so that they could rest
assured.
There were no other trivial matters.
Xie Pinghuai was still rushing to the academy for classes, so he could not talk to Xie Qiao much.
However, he was full of bitterness and wanted to tell his sister about it…
After the legendary grandmaster came back, his teacher, Xiao Yurong, treated him even more horribly. Recently, he had been very obedient and sensible, but Xiao Yurong
was still able to pick on him. He scolded him three times a day, which was even more punctual than eating.
That grandmaster…
Sigh, he said that he would see him in a few days. If he looked down on him, he would kick him out of the sect.
It was a little scary…
Xie Pinghuai did not feel a sense of belonging to the sect. It was already rare for him to have some fear and respect for Xiao Yurong, but to Old Master Li…
He had no feelings at all.
He only felt that he was a very annoying old man.
Compared to Xie Pinghuai, Xie Xi was a completely obedient child.
Occasionally, she would secretly go to Aunt Lin’s house behind Xie Pinghuai’s back and spend the rest of her time in the academy studying diligently.
Without Ms. Lu in the house and that so long had passed, Xie Xi’s personality had more or less changed. Since she started managing the house, she had become more
sociable and her mind had become more active. In the blink of an eye, she had already been promoted from the Begonia Courtyard to Snowball Bush Courtyard. Her
progress was great.
Not only that, Xie Xi even got an excellent evaluation in her arithmetic class and did very well in her exams.
Xie Xi started late. Xie Qiao was already very satisfied with her current improvement.
Her father’s official position was already high enough. It would be difficult for him to advance in his life. At most, he could rely on her relationship with the Crown Prince to
be conferred a rank. That would be the limit. However, her brother’s future was still very promising. Even if her father was gone in the future, he would still be able to
protect her.
Xie Qiao was worrying like a mother.
After spending an entire morning in the residence, she left again.
Chun Er had already sent her to the main entrance. She was very reluctant to part with her. She kept calling her as if she was going to marry someone.
This caused Xie Qiao to feel a lot of pressure. She felt like she was a heartless person.
In the afternoon, Xie Qiao changed into Mo Chusheng’s disguise and went to the teahouse that they had agreed on.
The guards sent by the Crown Prince also arrived on time to report the situation to her.
The leader was Qin Zhi.
He did not have the right to protect the Crown Prince, but he could do these things.
“Master, we have searched the southwest area and found many Taoist masters, but we didn’t find anything unusual. Besides, most of the neighbors know them.”
“Is there anyone with the Dharma name Liuming?” Xie Qiao suddenly thought of it and asked.
She thought that since that hooligan, Bao Yi, admired this Taoist master very much, then this Taoist master was probably not a very kind person. He would know some
unorthodox ways, which would suit this hooligan’s appetite.
Xie Qiao asked casually.
After all, she did not recognize any Taoist master in the capital except for Yuan Changzi.
“Liuming?” Qin Zhi thought for a while and took the notebook and flipped through a few pages. “Yes, here. Take a look.”
Xie Qiao looked at the black and white words on the notebook, which were quite complete.
This Taoist master Liuming came from a small Taoist temple. He was in his forties or fifties and had only been active in the capital in the last month. It seemed that the
Taoist temple he used to live in was no longer in operation.
“I remember this person too. He doesn’t look special. Like the other Taoist masters, he has a long beard. He looks like a very powerful immortal,” a guard said..
