Seeing the general asking about this matter, Ding Er immediately replied: "I have already found out that there are seven of them in the group, living in a private house in the west of the capital. The two of them acted on their own today and only said they were out for a walk. I have asked a few brothers to take care of them. They are waiting for the general to decide whether we should send someone to arrest them or hand them over."
"Send the man and the confession to Grand Tutor Chen, and we won't be involved in the rest." Yan Gui waved his hand and walked inside, whispering as he walked, "Let that old man owe me a favor, so that he won't be annoyed by me for no reason."
Chen Taishi was the imperial tutor of the previous emperor and had always been very prestigious in the court. Zhao Xu's ascension to the throne had some hidden reasons that were not disclosed to outsiders. Chen Taishi neither supported nor opposed it, but just kept silent and stayed at home to recuperate.
"Yes." Ding Er took the order and left.
Ding Wu followed Yan Gui into the front yard and into the study room. Yan Gui picked up today's official newspaper and read it carefully, tapping his fingers on the desk in meditation.
Today is September 24th, and they still have 16 days before they leave. He wants to take advantage of these ten days to have a good rest and spend more time with Weiyang. Once they arrive in Liuzhou, he is afraid that he will not be so leisurely.
The next day, Yan Gui asked Ding Wu to prepare the carriage, and the two of them went to watch the opera happily again.
Yesterday I was with my children and it was inconvenient to go to the theater, so I went to watch a shadow play. Today I brought Weiyang to watch the show on purpose.
After entering the teahouse, a waiter immediately came to greet them warmly. Yan Gui and Wei Yang only brought Ding Wu and Ding Si, Li Ma and Kong Gu. There were not many people, so it was hard to tell what kind of grand occasion it was.
The waiters in the store were all sharp-eyed. As soon as they saw the two people's clothes, they knew they were either rich or noble. They quickly flattered them, "Hey, this gentleman and his wife, please go upstairs. There are VIP seats upstairs."
Yan Gui nodded, and the waiter's face was full of smiles. He bent over, stretched out his right hand, and led the group to the VIP seats upstairs.
The view from the second floor is different from that from the first floor. The VIP seats are separated into small rooms. It is quiet and you don’t have to squeeze with those people. You can also see the whole picture of the stage clearly.
As soon as the two sat down, the waiter immediately served fruits, snacks, sunflower seeds and tea. Yan Gui also ordered a pot of wine and a few cold dishes.
Wei Yang's eyes were immediately attracted by the liveliness on the stage. Yan Gui reached out and took the wine pot, slowly poured himself a glass of wine, and drank it leisurely.
Seeing that Wei Yang didn't even look at him, he couldn't help but move closer and put it to her lips: "Try it?"
Seeing Wei Yang shaking her head, he didn't take it seriously and just kept drinking by himself, feeling contented.
The autumn sunshine is as bright as gold.
As dusk fell, Yan Gui leaned on the chair, looking downstairs, and yawned out of boredom.
A play was being performed in the center of the hall downstairs. It was a very cheesy scene of a man chasing a woman, "flowers have feelings but water is not."
Yan Gui yawned again and glanced at Wei Yang, who was staring at the audience with bright eyes and great interest.
There was a knock on the door, but Yan Gui didn't move. Wei Yang was so absorbed in watching that she didn't hear anything. Ding Wu walked over suspiciously and opened the door. There stood a woman dressed in men's clothes, without any makeup, with a heroic look between her eyebrows.
Seeing the door open, her eyes lit up: "Excuse me, is General Yan in there?"
Ding Wu looked at Yan Gui hesitantly, and seeing that Yan Gui did not even turn her head, he asked in a low voice: "Excuse me, young lady, what can I do for you?"
"I admire General Yan very much and want to meet him in person."
