Song Yi

Chapter 660

Mrs. Zhao pleaded: "Master, I have already told you everything you asked me, you should give this old servant an antidote first."

Du Wenhao sneered and said, "What face does a dying person need?"

Mrs. Zhao begged: "This old slave knows that this old slave is just a bait for the master. You will not really kill this old slave. Even if you really want to kill this old slave, please ask the master and the second lady to let this old slave die." Have some dignity."

Wang Runxue smiled lightly, and said: "Don't worry, I will let you die with dignity, because what I gave you is not drunk flower powder at all, but just a medicine to relieve sweating."

Mrs. Zhao didn't believe it, and said: "Second Madam, don't play tricks on this old slave again, I know I was wrong."

Ruoyu said: "Our second wife said that if I didn't give you food, I didn't give you food. You can believe it or not."

Du Wenhao said: "It's so hot here, let's go inside and talk."

Wang Runxue glanced at Mrs. Zhao, and said in a low voice, "This woman was also instigated to look pitiful, so I let her go."

Du Wenhao jokingly said: "Don't you want to make people lose their money at the end of the festival? Now I feel sorry for him, and Ke Yao doesn't know if he has found Qingdai. Thinking of this, I get angry again."

Wang Runxue sighed softly, and said, "Alright then, leave her alone, let's go in and talk."

Du Wenhao glanced at Mrs. Zhao, and said: "Forget it, listen to you, come and drag this woman to the woodshed in the backyard and give her some water."

Mrs. Zhao was let go, she was grateful, and said: "Master Bodhisattva heart, this old servant heard the leader once said that you were acquaintances, but you killed people from our White Clothes Society, so I was angry."

Hearing Mrs. Zhao's words, Du Wenhao probably understood in his heart. Could it be that the Shen family and the others arrived in Dali? Du Wenhao thought that the dozen or so traitors from the White Clothes Society were captured in the capital and handed over to the emperor, and then beheaded, right? Because of this one thing?If so, then everything that happened is easy to explain.

Du Wenhao said: "Is your leader an old woman?"

Mrs. Zhao shook her head, and said: "Our leader, Laonu, has never met before. Every time, we just let us listen to the leader's teaching through the barrier, but because the voice is not an old man, it sounds like a child's voice."

Wang Runxue said: "Then is there an antidote to the medicine your leader gave Da Furen?"

Mrs. Zhao said: "The old slave is not clear, because the old slave has only joined the religion for more than half a year, and he has not even had a chance to meet the servants around the leader."

Du Wenhao nodded, asked his servants to take Mrs. Zhao away, and said to Wang Runxue in a low voice: "It seems that this white clothes club is the old white clothes club in the Song Dynasty. At that time, I happened to find out that there was a traitor in the white clothes club in order to pay for the emperor. , so I took this opportunity to hand over these traitors to the emperor, and I secretly let Qingdai release those who were arrested by the traitors. In fact, we are friends with the White Clothes Society, but they don’t know it.”

After hearing this, Wang Runxue said worriedly: "In this way, the leader has misunderstood you, my husband, I hope that Mingsen will be able to recruit the leader soon after he goes out this time, otherwise it is not a solution to continue like this."

Du Wenhao nodded, and the two returned to the room to talk.

At this time, someone shouted outside the door: "Madam Six, you are back."

Du Wenhao hurriedly got up and went out to have a look. When he saw Ke Yao coming back alone with a whip, his heart sank.

When Ke Yao walked to the door, he saw Du Wenhao looking at him sadly, and said, "Wen Hao, don't worry, my sister is so skilled, nothing will happen, it's probably because she's in a bad mood, go out for a walk by yourself, since you're leaving, Of course it won’t be easy for us to find it, what do you think?”

Wang Runxue came out of the door and said: "That's right, Mr. Xianggong, don't worry, Qing Dai may not come back by herself in a while, Ke Yao, you are also tired, take a rest quickly."

Ke Yao nodded, seeing Du Wenhao's uneasy look, he didn't know how to comfort him, so he sighed lightly and backed away first.

Du Wenhao said: "Let's go."

Wang Runxue was puzzled and asked, "Where are you going?"

Du Wenhao said: "It's better to take the initiative to attack than to sit on the sidelines and wait for a rabbit. Let's take Mrs. Zhao to find the leader of the White Clothes Society."

Wang Runxue said: "I can't go now, Mr. Qing Dai is not here, nor is Housekeeper Ming, what if..."

Du Wenhao said with a sullen face: "Let her go. You promised me that you will be together no matter what. Now that a crazy woman can't resist a few words of instigation, she left. Why should I worry about her? Let's go!" , without Mingsen, we will go the same way, call Ke Yao, the three of us will do."

Wang Runxue didn't dare to say more, knowing that Du Wenhao was in a fit of anger, so she had to send someone to find Ke Yao, while she prepared the chariots and horses herself.

Hearing what Wang Runxue said, Ke Yao knew that this would not work, and Wang Runxue never opposed Du Wenhao, not even talking back.

Ke Yao said: "No, this is too reckless, I'll go and talk to Wen Hao."

Wang Runxue said: "No, when Qing Dai leaves like this, my husband will be very angry. You will only be scolded if you go. I don't think it's possible, so I will pretend to be sick. It will be a while. This Qing Dai is also the same. At this time, it is obvious Knowing that the eldest lady was framed by someone, some words should not be taken seriously, once she left, Xianggong was really angry."

Ke Yao has always been an outspoken person, who is not afraid of offending others if he speaks out. Seeing what Wang Runxue said, he wanted to speak for his sister.

"Second Madam, what do you mean the Eldest Madam was framed by someone? Don't mention my sister, I don't even know about it. If I knew, my sister must not be that unreasonable person who took this opportunity to mess around."

It was only then that Wang Runxue realized that she had said something wrong, and said embarrassingly, "Look, I was also confused. I even forgot that you and Qing Dai were not there when Mrs. Zhao said those words. I'm sorry, I made a mistake."

Ke Yao said: "What did the woman say?"

Wang Runxue then told Ke Yao about the previous events one by one.

When Ke Yao heard this, he said angrily, "What a hateful woman, I just thought she was instigating the eldest lady to have a quarrel with us, but I didn't expect that she would have something to do with the White Clothes Club. You don't want to go, wait until I find that The leader will judge."

Wang Runxue was completely speechless. Everyone in the family seemed to be at war with their swords, as if they were about to go out with a knife and fight someone desperately. Wang Runxue held Ke Yao down with a wry smile, and said, "It's still the same old saying, it's not that the whole family doesn't live together. Now that the house is closed, I first told you that my husband should not be rash, but now that I tell you, you are even more excited than my husband."

Ke Yao felt a little embarrassed, and said, "I'm also angry, and I can't blame Wen Hao for doing the same. Well, I'll listen to the second lady, and let's go to the front yard to persuade the husband."

The two walked to the front yard while talking, but there was no sign of Du Wenhao.

Wang Runxue was in a hurry, so she called the porter and said, "Where's the master? Did you go out?"

The concierge said: "No, the fifth lady is back. The master took the fifth lady to the firewood room in the backyard to look for Mrs. Zhao."

When Wang Runxue heard it, she was immediately happy, and said, "Fifth Madam is back?"

The concierge said: "Yes, as soon as you and the sixth lady leave, the fifth lady will come back."

Ke Yao let out a long breath, and said, "It's good now, I was scared to death, Wen Hao only listened to my sister, now that she's back, we don't need to be scolded."

Hearing this, Wang Runxue felt somewhat uncomfortable. Thinking about what Du Wenhao said before saying that he promised to be together forever, he felt sad. After leaving, will Xianggong be in such a hurry?

Seeing that Wang Runxue's previous joy disappeared, Ke Yao stood there in a daze with a gloomy expression. Knowing that he had said something wrong again, Ke Yao was secretly annoyed, so he tugged Wang Runxue's arm affectionately and said, "What are you thinking, okay?" Alright, let's also go to the firewood house in the backyard to have a look."

Wang Runxue said lightly: "Forget it, now my husband won't go out in a hurry to fight for a leader, so let the two of them stay alone for a while, I'm tired too, go back and rest for a while." After finishing speaking, he pushed Ke Yao away. hand, quietly left alone.

Seeing that Wang Runxue had left, Ke Yao said to himself, "Look at your stinky mouth, if you don't talk, you're going to die!"

Someone behind him said, "Who do you think is going to die?"

Ke Yao turned his head and saw Du Wenhao standing in front of Ke Yao holding Lin Qingdai's hand. Du Wenhao looked at Ke Yao with a smile, and the previous depression had long since vanished.

Ke Yao shook his head and said: "It's nothing, just talking to myself. Where did you go, sister? It's such a hot day, so it's hard for me to find you. Some people know that I haven't found you, and they want to eat me to relieve their anger. .” After speaking, he glanced at Du Wenhao.

Lin Qingdai smiled, and said: "You are lying again, I believe what other people say, but you need to think carefully about the truth and falsehood of what you say."

Ke Yao said: "In the first place, you didn't see Wen Hao, and the second lady was so scared that she didn't dare to speak."

Du Wenhao said: "Okay, okay, it seems that you are the only one who has a mouth, and now you have to do serious things, don't play tricks."

Lin Qingdai said: "Wen Hao and I went to see Mrs. Zhao. I discussed it with Wen Hao. It is better to take the initiative and take Mrs. Zhao to find the leader of the White Clothes Club."

Ke Yao had no choice but to say: "Okay, whatever you say is what it is, when shall we leave?"

Du Wenhao said: "Only Qing Dai and I took Mrs. Zhao to go. The housekeeper will not be here, so you must guard."

Ke Yao was unhappy, and said: "Aren't there more than 30 nursing homes and second wives at home? You want to leave me alone again."

Lin Qingdai smiled, stretched out her hand and tapped Ke Yao's forehead lightly, and said, "Be obedient, we can't leave the house empty. We not only need to guard against the people from the White Clothes Club, but also Wang Shiba's people."

Ke Yao was puzzled, and said, "What's wrong with Wang Shiba?"

Du Wenhao said: "Qing Dai came back specially, do you think her anger has subsided? Is it because when I went to Wuweitang, I overheard Wang Shiba sending someone to get the medicine, saying that he was waiting for something to be done before cleaning up?" I also heard Shitou talking about us, Wang Shiba and Sun He have a big event to do tonight, probably this is why Shitou left today, so you must stay."

Ke Yao was stunned, and said, "Why don't I know so many things?"

Du Wenhao said: "Okay, let's talk slowly later, you are born and waiting at home, and now I am not sure whether the stone belongs to Wang Shiba or someone sent by the court, so the guards at home and Ming Sen can't believe it completely, tell me, are you still going with us?"

Ke Yao didn't hesitate to go, and said: "Okay, then you must be careful. Don't worry, Madam Gu brought two generals with her? It shouldn't matter."

Du Wenhao said: "Look at me, I actually forgot about them, that's what I said, well, let's discuss everything with Mrs. Gu more."

After the three of them finished talking, Ke Yao was about to walk Du Wenhao and Lin Qingdai to the door, when suddenly a carriage stopped at the door, and the three of them saw a person alighting from the carriage, and upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Sun He!
Lin Qingdai whispered: "What is he doing now?"

Du Wenhao shook his head, then smiled and walked towards Sun He.

Sun He smiled and cupped his hands and said, "Hahahaha, sorry for the sudden visit, why, you seem to be going out?"

Du Wenhao said with a smile: "Zhuo Jing is going to offer incense in the temple. Anyway, I have nothing to do. Why did your lord come here at this time? It's such a hot day, be careful of heatstroke."

Sun He said: "So that's the case, then I'll come back another day."

Lin Qingdai stepped forward and bowed to salute: "Since Mr. Sun is here, it will be the same if we go another day."

Ke Yao just didn't want Du Wenhao and Lin Qingdai to go, so he took the opportunity to say: "Yes, yes, there is no rush to offer incense."

Du Wenhao invited Sun He to the lobby to speak.

Before entering the hall, Sun He looked around, sat down and asked, "I heard that Mr. Gu's daughter is here?"

Du Wenhao was taken aback, but said with a smile, "Is your lord well informed?"

Sun He smiled slightly and said, "Do you know why she came here this time?"

Du Wenhao looked at Sun He, and saw that Sun He was also looking at him, as if he wanted to see something from his expression.

Du Wenhao smiled, and said: "I have treated Mrs. Gu before, so you know that the two families have some personal relations. Mrs. Gu has gone to the south now, and I haven't seen you for a long time, so I missed it, so I came to have a look, and Her son also wanted to study medicine with me, so she asked her to come over in person.”

Sun He twitched the corner of his mouth, and smiled, and said, "It's just such a small matter that even alarmed the two generals Zhao and Fang in the court. What's the matter?"

Du Wenhao heard that Sun He didn't believe his words, so he said with a smile: "Who says no? Since the adults are here, it's better to say hello to Mrs. Gu and the two generals in person, right?"

Sun He immediately said: "That's natural. Although I have resigned, the new magistrate has not yet arrived. It is still necessary for me to meet them."

Du Wenhao knew that the real purpose of Sun He's trip was to find out about the itineraries of the two generals, Gu Hualuo and Zhao Fang. It seemed that he and Wang Shiba really had an ulterior purpose, otherwise he would avoid it with his personality. That's common sense. How could there be a seventh-rank magistrate begging to see a minister's daughter and at least two generals of fourth rank?

Du Wenhao then asked people to invite Gu Hualuo and the two generals, and then he talked to Sun He without saying a word. Du Wenhao found that Sun He was obviously absent-minded, and turned his head to look at the door from time to time. After a while, the servant came back to report , Madam Gu said that there is no need to meet, everyone will be in the south in the future, and there will be more opportunities to meet each other, and now I am tired and want to rest.

Du Wenhao saw that Sun He's face was very ugly, and when the servants retreated, he comforted him: "Your Excellency, don't worry about it, they just arrived in Xiushan County today, and the boats and cars are exhausting. It's human nature to want to rest for a while."

Sun He complained: "These people are really arrogant, isn't it just to see it? It doesn't take much energy and time, and they still say they don't see each other. By the way, how does she know that my home is also in the south?"

When Du Wenhao saw Sun He say the last sentence, his face changed, from the previous unhappiness to panic.

Du Wenhao smiled and said, "My lord, have you forgotten that the Gu family and the Liao family are family friends? Besides, Zixu is also a frequent visitor to the Gu family now. Isn't it normal for you to return to the south after you resign?"

After listening to Du Wenhao's explanation, Sun He secretly breathed a sigh of relief. After a while, he said with a smile: "Since everyone has come, I think I should do my best as a landlord. Please tell me, sir." Say good things, and invite the three of them to have a light meal in the humble house tonight. I don't have the face to invite them, so..."

Du Wenhao said with a smile: "Or tomorrow, my lord don't leave tonight, just stay at the house, I have already ordered someone to set up a banquet, although it is not as exquisite as the one at your lord's house, but it is also a little bit of my heart."

Sun He lowered his face, and said: "I said it's where I am, so don't refuse, sir."

Du Wenhao saw that Sun He insisted on inviting Gu Hualuo and Generals Zhao and Fang to his mansion, and he was unwilling even a day later, so he must have a purpose in looking for Sun He, otherwise why must he be here? What about tonight?

Du Wenhao said with a smile: "Forget it, since your lord insists so much, it's better to be respectful than obedient. You go back first, and I'll go and talk to my wife and the two generals."

After hearing this, Sun He was happy, stood up and cupped his hands and said, "Then I will wait for you at home."

Du Wenhao smiled and sent Sun He outside the door, and when he saw Lin Qingdai near the porter, he gave her a wink, saw him get into the carriage, and then called Lin Qingdai to come over, saying: "Follow him until he comes home."

After hearing this, Lin Qingdai jumped onto the roof and quickly disappeared from Du Wenhao's sight.

Du Wenhao thought about it carefully. If it meant that Sen had already released the news, then what should he do if the people from the White Clothes Society came tonight and he was not at home? And it was so easy to seize the opportunity to find out what happened to Sun He What is the relationship with Wang Shiba? I didn't expect the people from the White Clothes Club to join in the fun. Du Wenhao needs to think carefully about the matter together.

Before he knew it, Du Wenhao came to the guest room where Gu Hualuo was staying, and saw the door was open. Du Wenhao was standing at the door and was about to knock on the door when someone spoke in the room.

"It's Yunfan, come in."

Du Wenhao thought to himself, why does Gu Hualuo call him like this, as if he is close to him.

Entering the door, seeing Gu Hualuo sitting in front of the window as a female celebrity, and seeing Du Wenhao coming in, she smiled at him and said, "Are you coming to be a lobbyist?"

Du Wenhao sat down with a smile, Gu Hualuo poured a cup of tea for Du Wenhao and put it in front of him, and continued to embroider with her head down.

Du Wenhao said: "Madam is so leisurely?"

Gu Hualuo smiled, and said: "It's not Zi'er, she's such a big girl, if she doesn't wear this thing at night, she will complain about being uncomfortable when her stomach catches a cold, it's strange for you to say, I With so many grandchildren around my father, Dudu just likes Zi'er. When I went to the south this time, my father was reluctant to let me take Zi'er away. It was Zi'er who insisted on following me, and my father had no choice but to let me go. "

Du Wenhao thought of Yan Zi's cute expression, and said with a smile: "Zi'er is very cute."

Gu Hualuo said with a smile: "This time my father asked me to take Zi'er back again, saying that he thought very well, so I asked Yan Feng to take Zi'er back to the capital. I thought that if you agreed to take Feng'er back As an apprentice, then I can rest assured that he will come directly from the capital."

Du Wenhao said: "So, Zi'er has arrived in the capital now?"

Gu Hualuo hummed, and said, "Yes, it has arrived."

Du Wenhao remembered the matter of being a lobbyist, and said: "By the way, since Madam knows that I am here to be a lobbyist, why don't you call me back, go or not?"

Gu Hualuo said with a smile: "Since that Sun He invited you out, there is no reason for me not to go."

Du Wenhao was uneasy, whether Sun He suspected that the purpose of Gu Hualuo was related to Wang Shiba and his affairs. Thinking about it, there was indeed something strange, but it was just one Gu Hualuo, and it was enough to send one or two lieutenants to escort him Why do you have to let two generals come over, and it's just a matter of Yan Feng studying medicine, so why bother to mobilize so many teachers?
Could it be...!
Du Wenhao thought of something related to the stone, but when he thought about it, if Gu Hualuo and the stone were together, then she would not say that she knew someone before, so there is only one possibility, that is, Gu Hualuo did not know about it, but It was the two generals who knew.

Du Wenhao said: "Why don't I tell Lord Sun to forget it."

Gu Hualuo looked up at Du Wenhao, and said with a smile, "Isn't it just for dinner? It's not a grand banquet, what are you afraid of?"

Du Wenhao felt that Gu Hualuo had something to say, but he didn't say it clearly. At this moment, General Zhao walked in, and seeing Du Wenhao was there, he cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Du is here too?"

Du Wenhao asked General Zhao to sit down, and said: "Master Sun, magistrate of Xiushan County, invited the general, his wife, and General Fang to the county office for dinner tonight. I'm coming over to discuss with my wife."

Seeing that General Zhao's expression changed, Du Wenhao quickly calmed down, and said, "Master Sun? Is that the one who handed over the memorial to the court and asked to resign from office?"

Du Wenhao nodded and said yes.

General Zhao looked at Gu Hualuo and said, "Madam, what do you think?"

Gu Hualuo put down the embroidered plate, and said: "Then go, I have already rejected it before, who would have expected that Sun He would still insist, and even brought Mr. Du over."

General Zhao said: "Mr. Du and Mr. Sun are very familiar?"

Before Du Wenhao could speak, Gu Hualuo said: "It's just that I took care of Sun He's daughter, and then helped Sun He's daughter find an excellent husband-in-law, so the two families became acquainted."

Du Wenhao thought, Gu Hualuo seemed to be explaining something for herself. Was she afraid that General Zhao would misunderstand her relationship with Sun He?If she doesn't know anything, why is she worried?
Du Wenhao smiled but did not answer.

Only then did General Zhao understand, and said: "Hahaha, look at me, could it be that Mr. Liu Zixu Mr. Liu often mentioned is you, Mr. Du?"

Gu Hualuo said with a smile: "Of course it is. If it weren't for Mr. Du, Liu Zixu wouldn't be where he is today."
