Ninefold Purple

Chapter 99 Bearing Grudges

Dou Zhao's tone was a little hasty, which made Chen Qushui very suspicious of the source of her words.

No wonder fifth master said something to fourth miss?

But he immediately dismissed the idea.

How could Dou Shishu say anything to his niece who was not yet old enough about the temple?

He is a little confused. [

Dou Zhao also realized that his tone of voice was too hasty and perfunctory, so he couldn't help but sighed in his heart.

After all, he is still too empty-hearted and lacks confidence!

She had no choice but to say concisely: "People say that you are very wise and close to a monster... Sometimes thinking too much may not be a good thing!"

Chen Qushui was right when he thought about it.

Otherwise, Miss Si wouldn't have explained to herself.

Speaking of which, I was overthinking myself.

Chen Qushui taunted himself in his heart, and asked about Dou Zhao's future plans: "The Wang family, do you have any orders?"

"Let's put this matter aside for now." Dou Zhao felt that the fire was already on fire. If he fanned it too quickly, he might have blown out the flame. Why not let it go and let it burn slowly? Light some firewood or something, this fire may burn even more.So he said, "Pay attention to Zeng Yifen's body, it would be great if Wang Xingyi can stay in Xi'an."

Who can enter the cabinet, although the emperor's will played a decisive role, but that kind of leapfrog promotion is rare after all.As long as Wang Xingyi stays in the local area, he has little hope of joining the cabinet, not to mention there are still many people staring at him.If this still allows him to enter the cabinet smoothly, it can only be said that he is very lucky and it is God's will.

Chen Qushui said: "You mean... let us contact the fifth master?"

"Our fifth uncle must have planned for this matter." Dou Zhao said tactfully, "We just want to help him, and we don't have the qualifications and ability. The main thing is to find out more about the situation. If there is any change, we will not be too passive. "

"Understood." Chen Qushui laughed, "I'm also trying to get Fan Wenshu to get in touch with the people in the main store."

Dou Zhao nodded with a smile.

Chen Qushui went to Kyoto twice.Bring back good news.

"First someone accused Wang Xingyi of pretending to be a military leader, and then someone accused Wang Xingyi of being greedy for military pay." Sitting in the flower hall, drinking ice-cold mung bean soup, his voice was somewhat contented, "Although the emperor has stayed in the middle school, However, he sent his confidant eunuch Peng Qian to serve as the supervisor of Shaanxi Xingdu Division, which shows that he still has some grudges about this matter. So much so that Zeng Yifen promoted Wang Xingyi as the Minister of Dali Temple in advance a few days ago. The emperor did not agree."

It seems that Zeng Yifen still likes Wang Xingyi the most in the end.

Dou Zhaodao: "Is there any movement of my fifth uncle?"

"It's the same as before with Zeng Yifen," Chen Qushui said, "but we got closer to He Wendao."

Dou Zhao murmured: "If Ji Yong's uncle Ji Song can be eliminated early, maybe the Ji family will support Uncle Fifth..."

Chen Qushui was taken aback.

There are no permanent enemies, only permanent benefits.

Unexpectedly, Fourth Miss has already touched the threshold of officialdom!

Knowing is one thing.Implementation is another matter.It's like the staff of those officials in the borderlands, no matter how good their ideas are, without the support of the officials in the borderlands, it's just a pie in the sky.

He couldn't help reminding Dou Zhao: "Miss Si, even if Zeng Yifen and Ye Shipei take action personally, it may not be possible to make someone like Ji Zirong out early..."

Ji Song, whose name is Zirong.

"I know!" Dou Zhao said with a smile, "I'm just thinking about it." Suddenly, I feel a bit like those in Kyoto who have been spending time in restaurants all the year round, and they talk one after another.To do it is to not know where to start.

Time passed slowly until the beginning of August, during which time Dou Shiying sent two letters asking about Dou Ming's situation.Dou Zhao answered one by one: "Following Mr. Song's reading method has made great progress... I practice the pipa for an hour every day... I go to Dongfu every now and then to say hello to the second wife. At the time. The second wife specifically asked her to go to Fayuan Temple to offer incense... Sister Shu is engaged. My uncle's family name is Wu, and he is from Pingshan County. At the age of [-], I studied in Dou's family school. Dou Ming embroidered a pillow of twin lotus flowers and gave it to Sister Shu."

Dou Shiying is very satisfied.

He told Dou Zhao: "If she is disobedient, you just teach her a lesson. If she dares to contradict you, you tell her that I said it."

No matter who said this, she will be the one who will be hated in the end.

Dou Zhao ignored Dou Shiying.

Ji Yong is back.

He gave Dou Zhao a box with red lacquer and gold, which was so heavy that Su Xin almost missed it when she took it.

Dou Ming laughed at the side: "What did cousin Ji give my sister? It's so heavy? Could it be gold, silver and precious stones? Sister, open it and have a look?"

Ji gave Ji Yong a hard look, thinking that since Ji Yong was going to give something to Dou Zhao, he should know what it is after seeing it, so as to avoid random suspicion and nonsensical remarks.

But Ji Yong laughed and said, "I'll give your sister a good thing. If Miss Fifth is curious, why don't you open it and have a look."

Dou Zhao knew it was not a good thing when he heard his words, and wanted to stop Dou Ming, but then thought of Dou Ming's willfulness, so he simply let her open the box.

There are a pair of iron balls in the box, which are as big as a baby's small hand.

Everyone in the room froze.

Ji Yong smiled and started to spin the pair of iron balls in his hands.

The sound of the iron ball is high and low, crisp and sweet. [

"Isn't it interesting?" He looked at Dou Zhao with a smile, "Turning around like this every day when doing things can strengthen your body, and the fourth sister doesn't have to walk around the yard."

Is this something for girls?

Dou Zhao is angry.She said "thank you" with a smirk, and Su Xin put it away.

A look of depression flashed in Ji Yong's eyes, but he quickly regained his joy just now, and showed Ji a piece of Sichuan embroidery he brought back from Baoding Mansion: "...the blue weave pattern, with a few silk threads Dahong, it’s going to be cold in a few days, and my aunt happens to be making a cloak. It must be very nice.”

Ji accepted it with a smile.

Then there is the mahogany hairpin for Aunt Cui, the gold inlaid jade bracelet for Mrs. Ertai, and the beads for the eldest wife...

Dou Ming couldn't help being stunned, and said, "Cousin Ji. Where's mine?"

Ji Yong thought for a while and said with a smile: "I also brought something back for Miss Wu." Then he ordered the servant beside him: "Take out the big velvet silk flowers from the 'Plum Blossom' cage."

The boy went away in response.

Dou Mingjiao said angrily: "Why are mine big velvet silk flowers. Cousin Ji's is really biased!"

Ji Yong smiled and said: "I only brought these things back. How about you and your sister?"

Thinking of the pair of iron balls, Dou Ming immediately said, "I won't change them!"

Ji Yong sighed: "Then there's no other way, I didn't know you didn't like silk flowers, I'll give you something else next time." She looked very naive.

Dou Ming glanced at Mrs. Ji, said nothing more, and thanked Ji Yong with a sweet smile, and asked the maid beside him to pick up the silk flowers.

Dou Zhao saw that the silk flower was made of velvet.But it is so lifelike, there is a butterfly resting on the flower, a pair of trembling ones, very interesting.

Dou Ming smiled and looked at his sister, and asked Ji Hong to help her put the silk flower on her head.

after a few days.When Dou Zhao and Dou Ming came to say hello to the second wife, they found that the big maids and nuns of the Ji family were all wearing flannel and silk flowers on their heads, but the colors were different, and the things resting on the flowers were different.

Dou Ming's face turned red for a while, then turned pale for a while. He grabbed a maid and pointed to the silk flower on her head, "What is this?" The voice was very sharp, which startled the maid, and hurriedly said: " It's from Mr. Ji." After finishing speaking, he felt that the words were inappropriate again, and said in panic. "Mr. Ji bought a lot of silk flowers in Baoding Mansion, and when he came back, he would give one to anyone he saw. The servants brought tea to Mr. Ji, and Mr. Ji also rewarded me with one. There are also colorful clouds in Mrs. Ertai's house. I also got a melon and fruit..." His face turned pale with fright.

Dou Zhao saw that Dou Ming was so angry that his mouth was crooked.Busyly sent the maid away: "It's okay, Miss Fifth is just asking, you go and do your work!"

The servant girl ran away as if she had escaped from the tiger's mouth.

Dou Zhao warned Dou Ming in a low voice: "This is the second lady's yard, if you don't want to be grounded, just suppress your temper."

Dou Ming let out a cold "hum", and it took him a while to calm down.

Dou Zhao said to Ji Yong: "It's fine if you didn't bring a gift to Dou Ming, and you don't have to humiliate her like this!"

But Ji Yong said confidently: "I didn't bring anything to her in the first place. She begged for things in front of my aunt, so I had to perfunctory. Is this also my fault? Who would ask for things in front of others!"

Dou Zhaoyu.

"Okay, okay." Ji Yong said with a smile, "For your sake, I will never argue with her, so it's okay, right?" Then he said, "Fourth sister, is that iron ball fun? I I heard people say that anyone who goes to Beijing and passes through Baoding Mansion will buy that iron ball as a gift..."

Dou Zhao called Su Xin.

Smiling, Su Xin took out the pair of iron balls from the purse at her waist, and spun them around in a smooth and natural manner, with a voice like a low-pitched ditty.

Ji Yong smiled embarrassingly.

Dou Zhao raised his sleeves and left.

Dou Ming hated Ji Yong from then on.

At the family banquet on August [-]th, the big red lantern on top of Ji Yong's table ignited spontaneously. Everyone panicked, fearing that they would not be able to avoid it. They just sat there quietly in Ji Yong's place. The tea was poured over, soaking the lantern.

A few days later, a servant beside Dou Ming disappeared.

Dou Ming searched for a long time but couldn't find it. At night, someone found him in the fur toilet in the back alley of Xi Dou. In the corner, there are still many yellow and white things hanging on the head.

Dou Zhao's face was livid, and he asked Dou Ming, "What's going on?"

Dou Ming remained silent.

Dou Zhao sneered, "You don't have to say anything, it might be your turn next time..."

Before she finished speaking, Dou Ming screamed: "I just asked someone to put a few crotons on his horse, and he is so vicious..."

Dou Zhao thought of those vigorous and handsome horses.

Isn't that nothing?

Dou Zhao said in a deep voice, "Who told you that you can't put crotons in the horse feed?"

Dou Ming was taken aback.

Dou Zhao's gaze flashed like a knife's edge.

Dou Ming couldn't help taking a few steps back, and said in a low voice, "Yes, it's Brother Tan!"
