Chapter 50

Different from the emperor's Wende Hall, Ding Wei's study was warm and fragrant. If he had to find a disharmony in the room, it could only be him.

Ding Wei, who is over sixty years old and has white beard and hair, knows at a glance that he has been a senior official for most of his life. Although he is sitting on the couch without moving, his left hand is holding the tea tray, and his right hand is resting on the tea cup. But it just makes people a little awed, wrapped in the beautiful and beautiful clothes bestowed by the emperor, like a god statue in a temple that has survived for thousands of years, with a pair of eyes that are chaotic, but it seems that you can see the most hidden things in your heart without looking at you. of secrets illuminated.

"Sit down." After Yan Ziqin saluted, Ding Wei still looked down at the milk flowers scattered on the tea, let him sit on the bamboo chair facing him, raised his head as if struggling, his cloudy eyes I was so tired that I didn't even have the strength to blink.

"Today, we only talk about old friends, regardless of government affairs. We can relax a bit and don't need to be restrained."

Yan Ziqin bowed his hands respectfully, and sat down after a few times of evasion, and said: "Young boy, how dare you talk about your old friendship with the Duke of Guo."

Ding Wei laughed loudly, and said, "Although this is the first time we have met, your uncle Yan Shu is an old acquaintance of this old man. I remember when he first came to see me, I was the doctor You Jianyi, and he is like you too." Age, but not as mature and sensible as you, I gave this old man a blank stare. Haha, it was all decades ago, you don’t have to worry about it, and this old man didn’t take it to heart either.”

"Your father-in-law, Qu Zhang, was also trained under the old man. Young people don't know how to restrain themselves, but they show their sharpness. Later, they became sensible. Now they can take the position of privy envoy, sharing the worries of the officials and the queen mother. Isn't it great. Maybe you don't know, he came here last night in person after not visiting for more than ten years, and he vouched for you in front of me, saying that you are a very fair person and will never be biased. He worked hard for you, and the old man worked hard for the dog , the reason is the same, so, do you want to save this face for your father-in-law?"

Yan Ziqin looked at his nose and his heart, and said: "The Duke is also sharing the worries of the officials and the Queen Mother, and he still asks the Duke for advice when he is born late. How dare you speak lies."

Ding Wei said with a smile: "I can't talk about advice. To be an official in the same dynasty is to be of one heart and one mind. Since you understand the painstaking efforts of the old man, you just need to remember that although there is a blue sky above your head, there is also a big tree for shade. There are sun and moon in the middle of the court, everyone can see it, but there are not many real big trees.”

While talking, a servant girl timidly came to report, hesitant to speak, Ding Wei said: "Master Yan is my own, let's talk about it."

The servant girl said: "My lord, Mrs. Luo...is in a hurry to go back."

Yan Ziqin remembered that he heard that Luo Qiyu had been invited to the Duke of Jin's mansion last night, and it seemed that he hadn't left today. He heard Ding Wei say, "The Qiyu Pavilion has been sealed, where is she going?"

The servant girl bowed her head and said nothing, Ding Wei said again: "Then, let her go with Master Yan."

Yan Ziqin hastily declined, but Ding Wei said with a smile: "Chang'e has loved young people since ancient times, and she likes Lord Yan's friend named Du. Why don't you be beautiful?"

Yan Ziqin had no choice but to thank him, but couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat. It turned out that Ding Wei had known about Du He for a long time, but he hadn't revealed it, because it was unnecessary and not worth it.How many secrets does this old and cunning person hold?Yan Ziqin was thinking as he turned to leave under his half-smiling gaze.

But she explained that Shu was at home, and even though she knew that Yan Ziqin would be fine, she couldn't avoid worrying, so she sewed up the hood. After noon, Chunxiu brought a daughter-in-law in her thirties, who was Yuan Yizhen's confidant, and said she would come to get the medicine , Mrs. Yan, please help me.

Seeing the man flustered, Mingshu asked, "Do you know what kind of medicine this is?"

The man was silent, obviously understood, but it was hard to say it.

Mingshu said: "Then do you know how powerful this medicine is? Your lady is at a time when both Qi and blood are deficient. She took this medicine and lost her life. Can you afford it?"

The man lowered his head and whispered, "Madam Yan, don't worry, you won't be held accountable anyway."

Mingshu was upset at first, and when she heard this, she said anxiously: "What do you mean you can't be held accountable to me? If you don't take her life as your life, can I just watch you do whatever you want?"

The man said: "Our lady has made up her mind. The children of the Zhang family can't stay. If you keep them, your heart will soften. You can't go away for the rest of your life. If you really think about your lady, give the medicine to your servant. Our lady entrusts you to grab the medicine, but it's just In order not to let the people in the house know, if you are in a hurry, the servants can grab a pair and go back, and they will be beaten and scolded to death by the Zhang family, and the lady can't be dragged into the arms."

Mingshu thought to herself, if she didn't give her the medicine, she might really do so, so she gave her another set of medicine for clearing away heat and fire that had been prepared in advance. The prescription for abortion pills is just a matter of fooling around for a while.

After handing over the medicine, he asked again: "Can Zhang Lin be at home tomorrow? Tell your ladies not to take medicine. It's inconvenient for you to ask a doctor at Zhang's house. I will quietly bring one in tomorrow and show her. The doctor said that this medicine can Eat and eat again, don't be impulsive."

The man responded, and I don't know if he kept it in mind. After she left, Ming Shu took out the real abortion pill and sighed. Others take their own lives as a trifling matter.

Just as he was thinking, he shouted outside the door, saying that the official's carriage had returned.

Everyone in the family knew about Yan Ziqin's visit to the lobby of the Ministry of Justice, and they were all sweating coldly as they ushered the carriage in. The one who got out was not Yan Ziqin, but a beautiful lady, dressed lightly even though it was the middle of winter. , the big-sleeved blouse swayed with the north wind, so beautiful that everyone's heart was chilled.

"Where's Du Lang?" Willow eyes and peach cheeks, rouge and pink, speaking with a Sichuan-Chongqing accent, who is it but Luo Qiyu?
The servants were discussing a lot, not knowing where the officials got a stunning young lady, they all looked at the madam who came over with pity, and were even ready to persuade a fight, the two old nuns could not even speak their lines. Get ready—"Is there any cat that doesn't steal, Madam, think about it."

Unexpectedly, Luo Qiyu saw Qu Mingshu at a glance, and then ran over with her six-width skirt, grabbed her and said, "You really are a daughter's family. I didn't miss it the first two times." Seeing Mingshu's puzzled expression, Luo Qiyu took her hand and said with a smile: "Officer Yan was invited by Mr. Zhang of the Ministry of Criminal Justice on the way. Let's go in and chat. It's still too cold outside, making me shiver..."

"So, Ding Wei already knew that Du He was hiding beside us?" After hearing Luo Qiyu's explanation, Mingshu asked in shock.

Luo Qiyu pursed her lips and nodded, aggrieved: "If I had known this, it would be better to let Du Lang go out and walk around. I haven't seen him for more than two months. I don't know if he thinks about me."

Just as she was talking, she lowered her head and suddenly saw the medicine package on the table. She thought it was Ming Shu who was sick, but when she picked it up, it was the abortion medicine. She was so scared that she threw the medicine out and said, "This The medicine is yours?"

Mingshu shook her head hastily, but was misunderstood again, "A friend of mine entrusted me to buy this."

Luo Qiyu looked at the house above, shook her head and said, "Is this kind of medicine going to be bought by someone else? It's all blood-infused medicine. Is she going to have an abortion or is she going to seek death?"

Mingshu said happily: "So Miss Luo knows medicine?"

Luo Qiyu waved her hand and said: "It's not a miracle doctor. There used to be an old woman who served me who specialized in treating women's diseases. I've learned a lot from it, but it's not really a skill."

Mingshu said: "My friend is weak in both Qi and blood, is it okay to use this medicine?"

Luo Qiyu's complexion changed, and she said: "Unless she wants to die, throw this medicine as far away as possible. Could it be convenient for me to check the pulse?"

Mingshu said: "Ms. Luo is willing to go and see. It is really great. Her family is in a special situation. I asked a doctor outside to see a doctor. I am afraid that the news will be leaked. If it is not good to spread it, if Mrs. Luo goes, it will be a hundred times." gone."

Luo Qiyu covered her mouth and smiled and said, "Don't thank me, I'm going to bother you for a while. Now that I've come out of Qiyu Pavilion, I don't plan to go back. By the way, where is Du Lang? Did he mention anything recently? To me?"

Ming Shu smiled and said, "Stop talking, the carriage stopped at the gate of Qiyu Pavilion yesterday, and he wanted to see you in person. I don't see you today, I'm afraid he's putting on airs and being shy."

Luo Qiyu sniggered with a red face, stopped talking, and went to Duhe's room according to Mingshu's instructions.

Mingshu sent Luo Qiyu away, and her face became heavy again. She didn't know that Yan Ziqin was successively invited by Ding Wei, Duke of Jin, and Zhang Shixun, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment. There was some unknown contest in it, so she asked Chunxiu to prepare for a trip back to Qu Mansion, thinking Discuss the countermeasures with my father, and arrange for my family to wait at Zhang Shixun's residence. Once Yan Ziqin comes out, let him go to Qu's residence as soon as possible.
