Chapter 267: Visit
In the banquet room of the eldest princess of Ningde, there are flower trees planted in flower pots, although it is late autumn, they are still lush and green, and they look full of spring.
When Dou Zhao walked in, he couldn't help but perk up, stepped forward respectfully, and gave a big salute to the eldest princess Ningde who was sitting on the Luohan bed.
The eldest princess of Ningde was stunned for a moment and said, "Hurry up, hurry up!" There is no need to make a big salute. ”
Lu Shi's wife, Mrs. Lu Er, who came with her, hurriedly stepped forward to hug her.
Dou Zhao refused to get up, and said: "If it weren't for your guidance, I wouldn't even know what clothes to wear into the palace today, let alone be rewarded by the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother, and I would have been named 'Madame' by the emperor in advance." "I insisted on giving a big gift to the eldest princess of Ningde.
If you do a good deed, you don't necessarily ask for something in return, but someone can thank you heartily for it, but it can make people feel happy.
The eldest princess of Ningde smiled and pointed to the empty seat beside her: "Sit down and talk." ”
Dou Zhao naturally wouldn't be so big.
She smiled and thanked her, and sat on the embroidered pier under the head of the eldest princess of Ningde.
The eldest princess of Ningde couldn't help but bow her head secretly, and when the maids served refreshments, she asked about her entering the palace: "Where did the Queen Mother meet you?" Who brought you in? Is the Queen Mother okay? ”
Dou Zhao replied carefully and said, "...... The Queen Mother heard you say that I would play the leaf card, and let the prince take me into the palace to accompany her old man to play the leaf card. As she spoke, her eyes widened, "How do you know I can play the leaf card?" ”
That curious expression pleased the eldest princess of Ningde.
The eldest princess of Ningde said with a smile: "When you reach my age, you will know - you will lose wind when you speak, eat cakes and crumbs, and be disliked wherever you go, so you can only spend time playing leaf cards at home." That Mrs. Dou is about the same age as us, and she thinks it is the same. You grew up with her in Zhending. Always filial piety in front of her, this leaf card must be played well! ”
Dou Zhao was embarrassed.
Because of the memory of the previous life and the dislike of this life, although she lives in Zhending together, she rarely accompanies the second husband for recreation, and can play the leaf card, but it is because she often did her filial piety in front of the Tian family in her previous life.
But no matter what, the eldest princess of Ningde deliberately mentioned her in front of the queen mother, and she gave her a rare opportunity. She thanked the eldest princess of Ningde again.
The eldest princess of Ningde said with a smile: "The family doesn't talk to each other. When your second aunt entered the palace, I also mentioned her, but she didn't have such a creation as you. It can be seen that this kind of thing also depends on who it is. ”
Mrs. Lu couldn't help but blush.
Dou Zhao hurriedly said: "It is up to people to plan things, and it is up to heaven to make things happen." But the kindness of the eldest father made me remember it. Much appreciated. ”
Mrs. Lu couldn't stop nodding.
Dou Zhao suddenly sighed: "Everyone in the world knows that the closest person in the world is blood relatives." Broken bones and tendons. But when something happens, he would rather give the good to others than to those blood relatives. also said in a eloquent way, 'Give the benefit to others, or a personal favor, and get a praise from others; gave the benefits to relatives, and those relatives should be taken for granted. Not only do you not say yes, but if things go wrong, you will be blamed for your inability to help deal with the aftermath in a hurry'...... But they didn't think of it. At the moment of life and death, it is those relatives who can help you wholeheartedly and regardless of gains and losses. ”
The eldest princess of Ningde listened to the slight movement of her eyebrows, lowered her head and took a sip of tea. Said leisurely: "But life and death, those who fall into the well and kill you." And those blood relatives ......."
"yes!" Dou Zhao responded, smiled brightly, and said, "Look at me, come and see you still say these words - it can be seen that this relative is the same as a friend, and he must also distinguish between good and bad, and he can't blindly look at relatives and relatives, nor can he blindly accommodate." Then she changed her words and said with a smile, "The prince said, please seal Mrs. Shizi, the court has a charter." The emperor issued a special decree, which is one of the few in this dynasty, and it is also the emperor's favor, so it should be celebrated. I want to take advantage of the good weather these days to hold a chrysanthemum banquet at home tomorrow and invite relatives and friends to come to the house to be lively. She said, smiling and glancing at the second lady, "I also invite the eldest princess and the second cousin to come." ”
Second Mrs. Lu already knew about it before, but it was nothing, but Changgong Ningde was very surprised. Ask the palace maid next to you: "What time is tomorrow?" ”
The palace maid hurriedly smiled and responded, "Tomorrow is the fourth day of the new year." ”
The eldest princess of Ningde thought for a while and said, "I'll be fine tomorrow...... Then we'll go early in the morning. The last sentence was instructed by Mrs. Lu.
Mrs. Lu Er's compliments should be.
Dou Zhao was also very happy.
After chatting for a while, she got up and said goodbye.
Second Mrs. Lu sent Dou Zhao out.
The eldest princess of Ningde was helped back to the inner room by a female official who looked like a palace maid.
"Yantang's daughter-in-law, it's a little interesting!" She smiled at the female officer, "Every word has a deep meaning. ”
The female official obviously understood the words of the eldest princess Ningde, and said respectfully: "Then will you go to the British Mansion tomorrow?" ”
"Go, why don't you go?" The eldest princess of Ningde smiled, "What she said also has some truth. The Dingguo Mansion was killed, and Yantang helped to run before and after, and his own son was nothing more than that! As she spoke, her smile gradually faded, and her voice lowered, "Han'er and Qin'er are both older than Yantang, but not only are there many Yantang, but the Lu family has withered to this day." If Yantang can take care of one or two, maybe Han'er and Qin'er's children and grandchildren can still have one or two people who support the court......"
The female officer was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "The eldest princess is serious, I think Young Master Han and Young Master Qin are filial and sensible......"
Hearing this, Changgong Ningde waved his hand, and interrupted the female official's words with some displeasure: "You have served me since childhood, and our feelings are different, but you can't say this to others." ”
The female officer was stunned and lowered her head.
The eldest princess of Ningde looked at it, sighed, and muttered, "It depends on what kind of person this Dou is?" If she's a grateful person, I don't mind borrowing some of her strength...... It's up to her to decide what she chooses......" After speaking, as if waiting for something, he tasted the tea carefully.
For a while, the room could hear the needle dropping, and it was extremely quiet.
The female officer held her breath even more, and her atmosphere was not out.
After a while, a little guy hurried in.
"Eldest princess," he said, "the prince and the prince have gone to the second master's mansion. ”
The eldest princess of Ningde heard this. He let out a long breath, and ordered the female officer to reward the little man with a tael of silver, and smiled happily.

Dou Zhao returned to the British Mansion when he was dark, and happened to meet Song Mo and Yan Chaoqing coming out of the study.
"Have you had dinner?" Song Mo asked Dou Zhao.
Dou Zhao shook his head and said, "I came out of Old Madam Lu's side, went to the Yan'an Marquis Mansion and the Jingguo Mansion again, and invited the people of the Wang family and the Zhang family to the banquet - since I am walking around like a relative, it is better to move around." ”
Song Mo nodded and said, "I haven't had dinner yet." Why don't you eat together! ”
Yan Chaoqing hurriedly said goodbye.
Dou Zhao was a little embarrassed.
Song Mo went to the hall as if nothing had happened.
Dou Zhao had no choice but to follow.
Neither of them noticed that Yan Chaoqing, who had already walked to the door, turned around and stared at them, until the curtain of the hall blocked the backs of the two, and he turned to leave.
Dou Zhao asked Song Mo, "Why haven't you had dinner yet?" ”
"I've been discussing my father's marriage with Mr. Yan!" Song Mo said bluntly, "I thought of a few ways. Although it is feasible, I always feel that the symptoms are not the root cause, and I want to think again! ”
Dou Zhao entered the house to change his clothes and came out, and Song Mo had already instructed Su Xin to pass on the meal.
"Do you want me to say hello to the fifth uncle?" Dou Zhao and Song Mo sat down at the square table in the hall one by one, "The promotion of officials is the responsibility of the officials. The fifth uncle has been in the ministry for many years, and now he is a cabinet scholar. Those people will sell the fifth uncle a face no matter what. ”
"Not yet." Song Mo said, "I want to try first how much strength Changxing Hou Shi Ruilan will give to Huatang." ”
Dou Zhao couldn't help but be a little worried when he thought of Changxinghou's personality, and said, "I heard people say it. If you ask Chang Xinghou to come forward to do something, you have to knock on the door with silver. But as long as Changxinghou receives the money, there is nothing that cannot be done. Even if things don't work out, the money will be returned intact...... Everyone said he was very trustworthy! "That's it. Dou Zhao himself felt very ridiculous, and showed a bitter smile. "Stealing the pillar for the pillar and getting a job for his son, I'm afraid that the price is not low, and I'm afraid that Changxinghou will be reluctant to return the silver...... "As long as Changxinghou opens his eyes and closes his eyes, he can make a difference."
Song Mo sneered: "If you don't retreat, then he has to have this life flower!" ”
Dou Zhao was shocked, and couldn't help wiping his sweat beads and forehead.
Why did things become ...... as soon as things came to Song Mo People can't help but sweat coldly?
Dou Zhao reminded Song Mo in a low voice: "The Marquis of Changxing is the chief soldier of Datong. ”
Song Mo said disapprerovingly: "There are many people who want to be the chief soldier of Datong." ”
Dou Zhao was speechless.
The two had dinner and went to greet Song Yichun.
In the afternoon, Song Mo had already asked Song Yichun to send a message, saying that he would hold a chrysanthemum banquet at home tomorrow to celebrate Dou Zhao's "wife" title, but Song Yichun did not mention this matter at this time, but talked to Song Mo about his marriage with the Hua family: "...... There is no one in the family who presides over the feed, so I want to invite your aunt to come over as an assistant. You don't have to worry about it. ”
In fact, it was to prevent Dou Zhao from taking this opportunity to grasp the power of presiding over the feed.
Song Mo said indifferently, "Okay."
Song Yichun glanced at Dou Zhao, and saw Dou Zhao's eyes and nose, and his nose was standing there, unusually tame.
Doesn't look like a hot-tempered person at all?
Is there some misunderstanding in this?
This thought flashed through Song Yichun's mind, and he felt that it was necessary to call the pottery again to ask.
The pottery that was sitting down with his entourage to drink sneezed a few times in succession, and couldn't help muttering, "Who is scolding me?" ”
Chen Qushui, who entered Kyoto City before sunset, also sneezed a few times in a row.
The little guy asked him, "What's wrong with you?" Would you like to see a doctor? ”
"No need." Chen Qushui rubbed his nose and instructed the servant, "You go to Yan Chaoqing, the staff member of the British Prince's Mansion, and say that I will wait for him in the pen and ink shop on the street below the Drum Tower." ”
It's also closer to the British government.
I don't know what urgency Yan Chaoqing has to find himself?
