Chapter 184 (2/2)

Kyoto, the third day of the first month.
In the early morning, the side door of Yongping Houfu's house was banged constantly. The gatekeeper opened the door and saw that it was Siyuan, the young man of Wenchang Houfu's house. He asked, ”do you come to find Shizi in this early morning?”
Si Yuan hurriedly said: ”yes, my son asked me to invite Shizi to have a talk in the mansion, and also asked Uncle Wang to pass it on.” Si Yuan said, and he put a ingot of silver into the door.
Wang Bo hurriedly pushed out the silver and said with a smile, ”you son, give me this set. You don't need to wait. I'll tell the housekeeper now.”
Wang Bo then closed the door again, turned around and walked quickly to the housekeeper's residence.
Soon, the housekeeper hurried to the qingwenyuan where Shizi lived, and repeated Siyuan's words.
Zheng Zhongwen was in a hurry for several days. He just returned to Houfu yesterday. The spirit of energy hasn't been completely recovered. He was sleeping soundly in the winter morning. When he was interrupted by this, there was a fire in his heart. But when he heard that Yin Yixuan asked him to go, he didn't say much. He got up and quickly dressed and left the door.
Outside the gate, Si Yuan has arrived at the main gate from the side door to wait for the marquis. Seeing Zheng Zhongwen coming out, he hurried to meet him.
”Your son is having a banquet in the prefecture of Wenchang today?” Asked Zheng Zhongwen, smiling Chao Siyuan.
