When Song Mo returned to Yizhitang, his whole body exuded a cold aura, which was enough to silence everyone who saw him from afar, but he said to Dou Zhao as if he was reassuring: "Don't worry, I will take care of this matter." ”

His father could marry whoever he wanted, he didn't care at all, but if his father wanted to find someone to suppress Dou Zhao, he wouldn't agree no matter what.

Dou Zhao saw that there were green tendons popping out of his sideburns, and he couldn't help but comfort him: "Things are not as bad as you think, isn't this still decided?" Fortunately, my father told us early, and if we had known out after we had made up our minds, wouldn't we have been more passive? Now the top priority is to know how the father-in-law suddenly got into a relationship with the Hua family, so that he can see the move. ”

Regardless of whether Song Yichun took a fancy to the daughter of the Hua family, or decided to continue in order to suppress her, she didn't want this to happen until she was in charge of the inner courtyard of the British Mansion.

The Hua family is Wang Qingyuan's in-law in his last life. And the strength and arrogance of the Hua family left a deep impression on Dou Zhao. Unexpectedly, she would have to deal with the Hua family in this life!

Song Mo was confused by his father, and when he heard Dou Zhao say this, he quickly calmed down and called Chen He: "You go and ask Du Wei, what is going on?" ”

If his father wants to marry, it is impossible for Du Wei to be unnoticed.

Chen He left in response, but it was only half a cup of tea, and before Song Mo and Dou Zhao had time to change their clothes at home, Chen He folded back: "Lord Shizi, Du Wei sent someone over, saying that there is something related to the continuation of the grandfather of the country, and he is in a hurry, and he is waiting outside the second gate." ”

It seems that Du Wei is not derelict in his duties.

Song Mo's expression was slightly worried, and he asked Chen He to lead the person to the study, and then said to Dou Zhao: "You have changed your clothes and come over to listen to it." ”

Dou Zhao also wanted to know what kind of medicine Song Yichun was selling in this gourd, so he answered. I hurriedly changed my clothes and went to the study.

Du Wei sent over a fifteen or sixteen-year-old guy, his appearance and figure are very ordinary, he belongs to the kind of person who can't be found when he is thrown into the crowd, but he is very articulate, revealing a bit extraordinary.

“…… The thousand households of the Thousand Households of Weiqiu Ling in Ulzhou were sued by the bitter lord to the Ministry of War for not paying back the loan. The Ministry of War verified that it was true, and because there was no one to inherit the bitter master's family, it was ready to take back the hereditary position of Qiu Ling Qianhu. Huatang wanted the eldest son to overcome this shortage, so he took the path of Changxinghou and came to Kyoto to send silver. "I didn't expect someone to come in and listen. couldn't help but glance at it, who knew that under this glance, he couldn't help but look at it twice, and the speed of his speech slowed down, "I happened to meet Grandpa Guo at the gate of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, and Governor An Luhou of the Governor's Mansion of the Later Army took Grandpa Guo to drink, and Grandpa Guo seemed to have nothing to do." So he went with him. I don't know what was said during the banquet, but I only knew that as soon as the banquet was over, Nahuatang excitedly ordered his personal entourage to rush to Ulzhou. Because you once commanded, no matter what Grandpa Guo does. As long as there is a little abnormality, you have to find a way to figure it out. The person who was watching gave Du Ye a secret whistle, and Du Ye sent someone to pretend to be a robber who robbed. took out a letter from the entourage, and then knew that Hua Tang knew that Grandpa Guo had not continued the string. wanted to marry his eldest daughter to Grandpa Guo, with An Luhou as the matchmaker, Grandpa Guo did not refuse, and Huatang hurriedly asked people to go to Ulzhou to report to Mrs. Hua and ask for Miss Hua's Shenggeng Bazi. Du Ye saw that the situation was not right, and hurriedly ordered the little one to come and ask the prince for an idea. ”

Song Mo's eyes were cold, and he said, "Did the person who sent the letter find that the letter was lost?" ”

"Nope." The little guy didn't dare to look at Dou Zhao anymore, his eyes looked at his nose, his nose looked at his heart, and his voice gradually became calm, "Du Ye sent someone to stuff the letter back." ”

Song Mo nodded, afraid that Dou Zhao would not understand, and explained: "There are thousands and hundreds of households in each health office. Sometimes, when the father died, and the son was too young to manage the guard, he would lend the post to a relative, and promise to return it in five or ten years. The credibility is good, and it will be returned on time; Those who do not pay attention to credibility often borrow and do not pay back. Presumably, this Qiu Ling's thousands of households borrowed their relatives, but the son disappeared before he grew up, bargained with his relatives, and finally the conditions could not be agreed, and the family simply sued their relatives to the military department, and everyone broke up, and no one wanted to please him. If Huatang wants the eldest son to replace Qiu Ling's thousands of households, he must get the support of Shi Duanlan, the Marquis of Changxing, and the Governor of Houjun, Zhou Chaohe. ”

Dou Zhao can understand the words of the little girl.

She bowed slightly.

Song Mo sneered: "What a good idea for Huatang to fight!" It's a pity that I dialed the wrong abacus beads this time. He instructed the little guy, "You go and tell Du Wei to let him keep an eye on the people of the Hua family, including An Luhou, I want to know what they have done in the past few days?" ”

The little guy retreated.

Song Mo and Dou Zhao returned to the inner room.

Dou Zhao poured Song Mo a cup of tea.

Song Mo sat on the big kang by the window and drank tea while thinking about his thoughts.

Dou Zhao looked at him like this, where was he still sleepy, sitting on the side, doing needlework.

Song Mo smiled: "Go to sleep!" I have to enter the palace early tomorrow morning. ”

Dou Zhao wanted to give a good impression to the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother, and she really didn't want to stay up late, but seeing Song Mo like this, she couldn't lie down, and couldn't help but say: "Anyway, it's not a matter of a day or two to get here in Ulzhou, so you should rest early!" When you get some sleep, you're in a better mood and your mind is clearer, and you might have a good idea. ”

Song Mo nodded, got into bed, leaned on the head of the bed and continued to think about it.

It's no longer as glamorous as it was just now.

Dou Zhao couldn't help but sigh in his heart again.

I am afraid that this kind of contradictory mood can only be understood by people who have lived in two lives.

※※※※※

Just after the ugly hour the next day, Song Mo and Dou Zhao got up, and after dressing according to the product, the two went to greet Song Yichun.

Song Yichun's gaze lingered on the faces of the two of them for a while, as if he wanted something to happen from their expressions, but in the end, he found nothing, and couldn't help frowning and waving them to retreat.

There was no intention of sending them into the palace.

It's better that way!

Dou Zhao and Song Mo took the car to the palace.

Along the way, I met the carriages and sedan chairs of the early dynasty from time to time.

In front of the carriage and next to the sedan chair of officials above the third rank, there are entourages carrying lanterns with their surnames written on them, and officials below the third rank are carrying bare lanterns of the death wind.

Dou Zhao looked interesting and was in a good mood. In the crowd, I tried to find my uncle's or father's carriage, but unfortunately I didn't see it.

When they entered the palace, they knew that the emperor had gone to the early court.

Song Mo smiled: "Let's wait here for a while." ”

If you don't wait, can you go back?

Dou Zhao pursed his lips and smiled.

Song Mo looked at her and was fine, and his heart was slightly settled.

There were palace maids on the left and right, and the two of them couldn't say anything, so they sat there and drank a few cups of tea, and when they saw that the sky was bright, the waiter hurriedly ran over.

"Lord Shizi, the queen mother went to Cining Palace. Let you go to Cining Palace and knock on it. ”

Dou Zhao and Song Mo went to Cining Palace again.

In the previous life, although she also entered the palace every time she saw the court, she followed the inner and outer women who met in the court, everyone looked at me, I looked at you, and occasionally took the time to whisper a few words. It seems to be coming soon. Unlike now, the road is full of towering walls and lonely passages, no matter which direction you look at, you can only hear your own footsteps, as if there is no end to it.

Only then did she deeply realize that being on duty in the palace was also a chore. No wonder Wei Tingzhen didn't want Wei Tingyu to come out to receive an errand.

Song Mo saw a few drops of sweat on Dou Zhao's forehead, took out a handkerchief and handed it to her: "Wipe the sweat, it'll be there soon." ”

The attendant who led them to Cining Palace couldn't help but glance back at Dou Zhao.

Dou Zhao was smiling at Song Mo and didn't notice.

The chamberlain led them into Cining Palace. Go straight to the side hall in the back.

Dou Zhao knew that it was the queen mother's bedroom.

In the previous life, she had only been to the main hall at most, and she couldn't help but look left and right a few times on the way.

A good-looking man. The palace maid who was at the age of Hanashin was standing in front of the side hall and waiting.

Song Mo arched his hand at her and called her "Aunt Lan".

Dou Zhao stepped forward and bowed. Then shouted "Aunt Lan".

Aunt Lan smiled and nodded, looked Dou Zhao up and down, her eyes were soft, she was quite friendly to her, and turned around and led them into the side hall.

There are only the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother in the side hall.

The Queen Mother sat on the Luohan bed in a homely lilac-colored makeup gown, her black hair neatly curled, and she only wore an emerald ring the size of a pigeon's egg on her hand, which looked like she was only in her early forties, but in fact she had passed her sixtieth birthday five years ago.

The queen mother sat at the bottom of the queen mother, with fair and delicate skin, a long face, and a pair of bright eyes, very bright. Although there are fine wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, they do not make people think that she is haggard, but make people think that she is very amiable.

These two, Dou Zhao had seen them more than once in his previous life, but at that time, the impression they gave her was completely opposite to that at this time.

The Queen Mother is amiable, and the Queen Mother is solemn and dignified.

Especially the Queen Mother, the last time she saw the Queen Mother, the emperor had already died, and the King of Liao named the Queen Mother as the Queen Mother, and they were ordered to enter the palace to congratulate. The Queen Mother described her withered as like an eighty-year-old woman, supported by someone, who fainted before completing the ordination ceremony, and died of illness within two days.

She still remembers the skeletal stiff face of the Queen Mother.

Dou Zhao lowered his head and bowed to the two mothers with Song Mo.

Then she heard the queen's voice gently say to the queen mother: "Although I grew up in the countryside, I think this etiquette is good, it can be seen that he is a smart and clever child." ”

Dou Zhao thought that after this queen mother was promoted to the queen mother, she dared to kill the favorite concubine of the king of Liao, but the king of Liao, who was already the son of heaven, did not dare to say a word, so he felt a little nervous.

She lowered her eyelids, respectfully lowered her hands and stood aside, and heard the Queen Mother say with a little displeasure: "The Dou family in the North Building is the home of poetry, books and etiquette, and the girl who has been raised will naturally not be bad." ”

Dou Zhao heard the queen mother respond with a smile and a "yes", and her voice was extremely tame.

Such a queen mother is not the queen mother she knew in her previous life.

The Empress Dowager beckoned to Dou Zhao: "You come over, let me take a closer look." ”
