Xia Sheng and the other two lived in the Weining Marquis' Mansion, but what made Xia Sheng a little uneasy was that during dinner, Mrs. Ye did not arrive as promised.

This made Xia Sheng’s initial plan fail.

His original plan was to give Mrs. Ye a detailed introduction to her father's disappearance at dinner to seek help from the other party.

Who would have thought that he would never see Mrs. Ye again?

According to Yun'er's explanation, Mrs. Ye went out of the mansion to meet a distinguished guest and would not come back in the evening, so that Xia Sheng and others would not have to wait for her and everything would be at will in the mansion.

The dishes at the dinner were very rich and all kinds of delicacies were available. Especially the special dishes in Luoyang City were not lost, but they were tasteless when eaten in summer.

Ning Zheng had a faint sad look on his face and he whispered: "Mrs. Ye, did he deliberately avoid us?"

Xia Sheng shook his head: "It's hard to say. Maybe there is really a big man who first entered the capital and needs Mrs. Ye to receive him personally. Let's not think about it so much. We have been waiting for so many days, so it's okay to wait for one more night."

Ning Zheng sighed softly: "That's all."

As he said that, he turned his head and looked at Meng Qi who was having fun. He couldn't help but smile bitterly: "It's better for us, Miss Meng, to have eaten a lotus leaf chicken in this time..."

Upon hearing this, Meng Qi raised his head suddenly, glared at Ning Zheng fiercely, bit the chicken bone in his hand, and said to Xia Sheng: "My benefactor, please let me kill him with one bone!"

Xia Sheng rolled his eyes in anger: "Eat a good meal, go back to the room to sleep after eating."

As he was speaking, a servant from Ye’s mansion suddenly ran in from outside and said respectfully to Xia Sheng: “Young Master Xia, someone is asking for a meeting!”

Xia Sheng's eyes immediately lit up and he kept saying, "Please come in."

Few people knew about Xia Sheng's residence in the Weining Marquis' Mansion, or to be more precise, only one person knew about it, that is, Bi Qingwen, the deacon of Yangcheng Shantang who escorted Xia Sheng and others to Beijing along the way.

In this way, is it possible that there is news from Qin Yan?

This Bi Qingwen is doing things very quickly!

Xia Sheng was thinking this way, and sure enough, the next moment, Bi Qingwen appeared in front of him, but his face looked a little uncomfortable.

Yes, Shantang and the people in the Marquis of Weining were all natural enemies, both in the court and in the market. Fortunately, Bi Qingwen was not from Luoyang, otherwise the servants of the Ye Mansion would have recognized his identity long ago and bombed him out.

As soon as he arrived in front of Xia Sheng, Bi Qingwen said straight to the point: "Mr. Xia, my lady is welcome."

Xia Sheng nodded and said to Ning Zheng and Meng Qi: "You two don't have to follow me this time, just stay in the mansion and wait for me to come back."

After explaining these words, Xia Sheng was about to leave with Bi Qingwen, but he never thought that such a scene would have caused many bad associations in the eyes of the servants of the Ye Mansion.

"I heard it right, my sister-in-law is going out to meet another lady?"

"Did you ask clearly when that person came in just now? Which entourage is it?"

"It is said that the younger sister-in-law just came to Luoyang today? He is not familiar with the place. How could anyone know that he is in our mansion?"

Such gossips naturally reached Wang Er's ears. He did not follow Mrs. Ye out of the mansion tonight because his identity was inconvenient, so he simply stayed to continue monitoring Xia Sheng, but he never thought that such a thing happened at this moment.

After hesitating for a moment, Wang Er immediately attracted two sword-bearing warriors and said in a deep voice: "You two follow up and see where he went, who he saw, and what he did, so there must be no mistakes!"

"yes!"

The two of them bowed their heads and quickly disappeared from the night. However, two vague shadows appeared behind the carriage that Xia Sheng was riding.

At this time, Xia Sheng didn't know that he had just walked out of the Weining Marquis' Mansion and was followed. He was just a little confused about where Bi Qingwen was going to take him.

"Looking at this direction, it seems that it is not the way to Shantang."

Bi Qingwen smiled and nodded and said, "I didn't expect that one day I came here, Mr. Xia was more familiar with this city than me. The place where the lady arranged to meet the young master was indeed not Shantang, but the Yanyu Tower outside the city."

Xia Sheng was stunned: "Yanyu Tower?"

"Not bad." Bi Qingwen was a little surprised: "It seems that Mr. Xia knows this place?"

Xia Sheng shook his head: "I have never heard of it, but judging from this name, it seems to be a...

Hearing this, a hint of embarrassment suddenly appeared on Bi Qingwen's face. He laughed dryly twice, and then Xia Sheng said, "It's a flower building."

Well, if we look at the secret only, the flower building is indeed a good choice. After all, no one would have thought that the dignified young lady of the Qin family would visit such a place.

But what made Xia Sheng even more worried was the profound meaning behind Qin Yan's actions.

Logically speaking, as the successor of Shantang and the eldest daughter of the Qin family, Qin Yan can’t go anywhere in the entire Luoyang City? Who dares to monitor her actions? But why do you need to hide and be careful when it’s just a small matter like meeting Xia Sheng?

What happened after the chaos of Hei Shui Town?

Why did Kang Wuwei refuse to see Xia Sheng on the pretext of seclusion? Why did Shantang change his attitude towards Xia Sheng by 180 degrees? Why did Qin Yan not have the attitude of being the eldest lady of the Qin family at all?

For a moment, countless questions poured into Xia Sheng's mind, and the answer was in Yanyulou.

As the capital of the Dajin Dynasty, Luoyang City was extremely strict in its laws and regulations. Not only did it have a curfew, but it also stipulated that flower buildings and gambling workshops were not allowed in the city. If anyone dared to do it in secret, he could be killed according to the law!

So if Xia Sheng and Bi Qingwen want to go to Yanyu Tower, they first need to leave the city.

Fortunately, before the city gate was closed, the carriage drove out of the city gate smoothly and headed south. After half an hour, a bright light finally appeared in front of everyone.

Bi Qingwen told Xia Sheng that this is the gold-selling cave for all the officials and nobles in the court. Not only are there any flower buildings, gambling workshops and other places, but there are also anything you can imagine here.

Xia Sheng was not qualified to comment on this. He was just a little curious about who was behind this huge chain of interests.

Although it is half an hour's drive from Kyoto, it is obviously unlikely to hide it from Shengting. Since that's the case, why didn't Your Majesty pull it out now?

Although the existence of this kind of place did not explicitly disobey Jin's laws, it undoubtedly made the laws and regulations in Luoyang City meaningless. Why can it stand here?

Before Xia Sheng could figure out the trick, the carriage slowly stopped in front of a magnificent building.

The mist and rain tower has arrived.
