Ninefold Purple

Because he had to rush back to the palace to work, Song Mo got up at Yinshi the next day, and after a simple breakfast, he hurried back to the capital city on horseback.

Songluo stayed and was in charge of the trivial affairs of the outer courtyard, while Duan Gongyi and Chen Xiaofeng were in charge of the guards of the other courtyard.

There is a small vegetable field behind the other courtyard. Dou Zhao accompanied his grandmother to water and catch insects. If Brother Yuan was not naughty by his side, life seemed to be back when Dou Zhao was not married.

When Song Mo came to see her, he couldn't help but twist her nose, and said with a smile: "When we are old, we will move to another courtyard. You plant flowers and I water them. I will go back to visit my grandson during the New Years and holidays." Granddaughter, if they please us, we will give them a few more red envelopes; if they annoy us, we will go back and lose our temper..."

Dou Zhao smiled and bent over.

After Song Mo left, Ji Ling came to visit her.

Grandmother knew that she was raised by a rich family and was not familiar with farming, so she specially entertained her in the small flower hall.

She smiled and talked with her grandmother for a long time, and played with Brother Yuan for a long time.

Seeing her like this, Dou Zhao felt exhausted. Seeing that it was noon, he simply asked her to help mix the cold noodles, and talked to her in the tea room: "Did something happen at home?"

Ji Ling saw that the lunch was made of freshly harvested Qiao Mai noodles, served with green cucumbers, white and tender sprouts, and golden peanuts. The second wife came to visit and brought some gold and silver, saying that they didn't know when I got married with your twelfth brother. It’s not good to live in the Wang’s house. Let me send someone to bring Mrs. Seven back. This is what a virtuous woman does. I thought that this is not a matter for me as a daughter-in-law, and I was afraid that the elders would misunderstand, so I came to talk to Grandma Fourth Aunt. Say."

Dou Zhao sneered.

A good idea from the Wang family.

If Dou Dechang marries a daughter from another family, the new wife may have to take this matter into her hands in order to get a good name when she enters the house, and it will inevitably be a troublesome thing.

Fortunately, Dou Dechang married Ji Lingze.They know each other well, otherwise, just explaining the ins and outs of it, I am afraid it will be difficult to talk about it.

She said bluntly: "I finally sent Mrs. Seven out of the house, sister-in-law, please don't bring her back again."

Ji Ling narrowed his eyes and smiled after hearing this, and said, "With your words, I can rest assured." She changed the subject and asked about Dou Zhao's body: "I think your steps are very light, you don't seem to be pregnant. Looking at the child, what's the secret?"

Dou Zhao couldn't help joking with Ji Lingze: "Sister-in-law, why worry? When the good news about sister-in-law reaches me, it won't be too late for me to pass on some experience to you."

Ji Ling blushed when he made a fuss.

After lunch, Ji Lingze was sent away, and Dou Zhao took a lunch break in the inner room.

The noon sun shone harshly on the courtyard.It makes people lazy and unable to lift their spirits.

In a daze, she heard a commotion.

Dou Zhao couldn't help frowning.Instructed Ruotong who was serving: "Go and see who is shouting there?"

Ruotong trotted out of the house, and soon came back.

"Ma'am, it's the second master." She said hurriedly, "It is said that the second master and his friends went to Baique Temple to play, but who knew that the carriage suddenly overturned, and the second master's leg was crushed, and the pain was severe when he moved. Thinking Madam was escaping the summer heat in another courtyard, so the second master ordered the guards to hire a sedan chair to bring him over. He also asked us to hire a doctor for him."

Dou Zhao frowned, and said, "How many of them came here? Where are they all now?"

Ruotong said: "A total of fifteen people came from them, three of them are friends of the second master, and the other 12 are the guards of the second master. Songluo put them all in the Dongkua courtyard of the outer courtyard, and the second master's leg was injured , was guarded by two young servants and lived in the small study in the outer courtyard, and sent another young servant to invite the doctor."

As soon as she finished speaking, a little servant girl ran in and said, "Second Master's close servant said that he was ordered by Second Master to greet his wife and the old An on behalf of Second Master."

It was just a matter of etiquette, so Dou Zhao asked someone to send Song Han's servants away with a few pieces of silver, and told Ruotong: "Go and pass on my words, let Master Duan send more people to patrol, don't let the second master's Someone touched the second door."

Ruotong bent his knees to respond, stepped back to pass on the message.

Songluo quickly invited a doctor over.

The doctor said that Song Han may have sprained his ankle, but it may also be a bone injury. It is best to take two sets of medicine, do not move, and rest for a few days.If your leg still hurts, you may have broken a bone; if your ankle is just swollen, you may just have a sprained foot.

Song Han turned pale with fright, and urged Songluo repeatedly: "Hurry up, go to the imperial hospital and invite an imperial doctor." Then he asked his personal servant to ask Dou Zhao for an Arhat bed: "If this is true If I hurt my leg bone, I will be crippled. None of you are allowed to touch me, I will lie on the Arhat bed and recuperate."

Dou Zhaocai didn't bother to care about him, so he asked someone to lower the kitchen door to the front yard, saying, "There is no unused Arhat bed in the warehouse. Since I want to rest in bed, I can use this door to carry him to the guest room temporarily."

Song Han was trembling with anger. Seeing that the three companions were present, he had no choice but to agree resentfully, and was carried into the guest room by his guards.

Songluo put Song Han's three friends in the guest room next to him, and then went to invite a servant to come to Beijing to invite an imperial doctor to treat Song Han.

The little maid who served in the front yard fried the medicine and sent it over, but Song Han knocked him down on the ground in agitation, and said roughly, "Which yard are you an idiot from? Didn't you see that it was a Mongolian doctor just now? He Do you dare to use the prescription you prescribed? Are you impatient?!"

The little maid usually only guards the empty house and cleans it up, but she has never seen this kind of battle, and she was so frightened that she burst into tears.

Song Han's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.

His friend came forward to persuade the little girl to go out, and comforted the little girl, saying: "Second Master fell his leg, and I feel uncomfortable, don't take it to heart."

The little maid nodded and retreated sobbing.

In the front yard, there were tea, snacks, and novels to relieve boredom. They tossed and tossed all afternoon, and it didn't stop until it was time to light the lamps.

Grandmother asked Dou Zhao, "Should I send a little maid to check on his injuries?"

"No need!" Dou Zhao played with Brother Yuan while turning the rope.On the one hand, he said indifferently, "The inkstone hall will rest in the day after tomorrow, he will definitely come over tomorrow night, and let him deal with it then."

Grandmother knew that the Song brothers were at odds, but she didn't know the details, but she always believed in Dou Zhao and Song Mo, so she didn't ask any more questions, and instructed Brother Yuan to turn the rope.

Older gingers are more spicy.In the end, Brother Yuan actually won against Dou Zhao.

He was so happy that he jumped up and down on the kang.Plague Dou Zhao for another game.

Dou Zhao played with the child with a smile. Brother Yuan didn't start yawning until Haishi.

She and the wet nurse helped Brother Yuan take a bath, and Brother Yuan fell asleep after touching the pillow.

Dou Zhao smiled and touched his son's black and smooth hair, got up and went back to the room.

The night in the country is very quiet.

In Xiangshan Bieyuan, only the rustling of the wind blowing through the treetops and the intermittent chirping of insects could be heard.

Three black shadows jumped out from the roof of the guest room.Jumped and landed on the roof of the main house.

Two people watched the wind, and one person quietly pried off the roof tiles, took out a thin bamboo tube and blew air into the house.

After a while, a faint sweet fragrance wafted out from the main room.

The three of them were lying on the roof.

After about a stick of incense, the three of them jumped in one file at a time from the parted roof.

It was as if a drop of water had fallen into a lake.

It was very quiet in the main room, without any sound.

Suddenly, a black shadow rose into the sky.Run towards the outside of the courtyard.

Suddenly the lights in the other courtyard were brightened, and there was a black figure with a thin figure.The masked face was exposed to the light without any hiding.

"My friend, where are you going?" Duan Gongyi came out of the darkness with a big knife in his hand, his resonant voice was deafening in the night sky, "This is the other courtyard of the British government. , Come whenever you want, leave whenever you want!" The voice didn't finish.Suddenly, a cold light flickered around Heiying, and someone swung a big knife and slashed at the top of his head.Drive the shadow off the roof.

The black shadow's skill was very superb, such a sneak attack that caught people off guard not only made him dodge, but also drew out the soft sword at his waist and fought with his attacker.

Duan Gongyi let out a "huh" and said loudly: "This is not a martial arts competition, so why are you still talking about one-on-one?"

There was a chuckle in the other courtyard, and more people surrounded the shadow.

Lots of people.

The black shadow was quickly defeated.

Duan Gongyi, who was at the side, hurriedly reminded: "Be careful that he commits suicide!"

It's just that as soon as his words fell, the figure of the black figure paused in vain and fell to the ground.

"***!" Duan Gongyi ran over cursingly, and pulled off the black cloth from Hei Ying's face.

He is one of Song Han's twelve guards.

"The black hearted thing, I see what else he has to say!" Duan Gongyi said indignantly, "Shoot the jaws of those three guys who broke into the house, and when the eldest son comes, he will have a living."

A guard answered "Yes", took out a handkerchief, covered his face with water, and entered the main room.

Duan Gongyi said, "Where is Second Master?"

Another guard said: "Don't worry, our human eyes don't dare to blink! I guarantee that not a single mosquito will fly in. However, if the second master commits suicide too, then I can't help it."

Suicide also takes courage.

The guard's tone was somewhat sarcastic.

Duan Gongyi couldn't help muttering: "It would be fine if he committed suicide, how much trouble would it save!"

He went to the courtyard where Song Han lived with a knife, stood at the gate and said, "Second Master, your guard broke into the main courtyard in the middle of the night, was besieged by us and committed suicide, did you come out and give us an explanation? "

There was no sound in the room.

Duan Gongyi laughed and said: "Second Lord, otherwise, some thieves broke in at night, and you were killed by the thieves in order to protect your wife!" He said, took two steps back, and said loudly: "I set fire to you!" Burn down the room!"

The lights in the room were immediately lit, and the door was opened with a "squeak". Song Han came out with a pale face, and shouted loudly: "I was hijacked by them when the carriage overturned. I tried to give it to you several times. You failed to deliver the letter, and I am also a victim! You are about to report to my brother, someone is going to kill him!"

Duan Gongyi couldn't help grinning, and said with a smile: "Second Master, I'm sorry, you should follow me to see my wife first! As for your guards, you should either throw down your weapons and come out with your hands up, or you can give their corpses to him. Throw it out! I dare not rush into the place where you lived!"
