That night, Qin Daochuan looked at Ruo Shu who was closing his eyes and pretending to be asleep beside him, and asked, "Shu'er, why didn't you ask me why I wanted to reopen a door in the right courtyard?" ”

Ruo Shu closed his eyes and replied: "You naturally have your own reasoning, you are very resolute, Qin Dong and their hands and feet are also fast, but the feng shui of the right courtyard has been damaged, so I have to renovate it, and it is much more troublesome to rebuild the passage." ”

Qin Daochuan smiled bitterly and said, "I know you won't care." Tomorrow I will go to the guard camp outside the city to prepare the team, and in three days I will leave for the north with the Western Xia mission, and I will advise my grandmother not to send her off, so that you will not be tired. ”

Ruoshu still closed his eyes and said, "Thank you, general, why be compassionate." ”

Qin Daochuan hugged Ruoshu into his arms, gently rubbed his chin on her hair, and said: "Shu'er, to tell you from the heart, I am happy that you are pregnant, I am just worried that I will not be in the house when you give birth this time, although I have begged Xu Qiantong, but I am still-" Ruoshu felt that his arm holding him was tight and tight, and his breathing was heavier than the next, so he said: "I feel okay myself, much easier than last time." ”

Qin Daochuan said: "You don't have to go out of the house if you have nothing to do, you really want to go, and you have to choose a day with good weather during the day." ”

Ruoshu smiled: "You plan to ban my feet again?" ”

Qin Daochuan said: "I know that you don't like that the most, at first I didn't want you to be more serious, so I trapped you in the house, but now I am afraid that something will happen to you, and I want to ban you, but I am afraid that you will annoy me." ”

Ruoshu said: "I thought I was afraid that I would leave, but now that I have so many children, I can't go anywhere, so I relaxed, right?" ”

Qin Daochuan leaned his face towards Ruoshu and said softly: "Shu'er, Shu'er, this mouth... "If Shu knew that every time he traveled far away, he always had to guard himself and entangle for a long time, but he never messed around, so he let him go.

Who knows, he suddenly stopped halfway and said, "Shu'er, be more tolerant of Xianya, and so is Zhongzhan." They don't stay with you for a long time, and your grandmother is always strict, if you are cold to them, it will definitely make them even more unrelieved, and they will seem more separated from you. After all, you are their mother, the person closest to them, so it's good to take care of them more. Several children are getting older day by day, and if the difference in food and clothing is too great, it will also affect their brotherhood and sisterhood. ”

Ruoshu thought about it and nodded.

Qin Daochuan continued: "In another year or two, Zhongzhan will go to Lanxi Academy to study, and Xianya will also have her own place to live, and everything will be fine." ”

Ruoshu snorted.

Qin Daochuan said: "Shu'er, can't you be more enthusiastic? ”

Ruoshu replied: "I'm like this now, how enthusiastic do you want me to be?" ”

Qin Daochuan said: "Like me, talk to me more, it's okay to do anything." ”

Ruoshu replied: "Then I wish the general success and return triumphantly as soon as possible." ”

Qin Daochuan said: "Excellent, very good. Shu'er, would you like to write more when you reply to my letter? ”

Ruoshu was going to settle the account again. Qin Daochuan had already said: "If I write a thousand words, you will reply a thousand words, okay?" ”

As soon as Ruoshu's word came out, he blocked it back.

When Ruoshu woke up the next day, Qin Daochuan was no longer visible, and when he saw Lan Zhi alone in the morning, he asked, "Where is Xia Wei?" ”

Lan Zhi replied: "A few days ago, I said that I was homesick and wanted to go back to Qingzhou, I have agreed, now I am packing my luggage, Xia Ju said that there is a convoy back to Qingzhou today, and she happens to go back together." Because there are many things to repair the yard these days, I forgot to go back to the owner for a while, and asked the owner to punish him. ”

These newcomers, Ruo Shu was not impressed, so he said: "When they came, they said that you are in charge, and you don't have to report anything to me, just tell me today." ”

Lan Zhi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, Xia Wei saw Qin Daochuan get up in the morning, and wanted to go to be courteous, but was stopped by her, and after Qin Daochuan left, he called her to speak, now I am afraid that she is still crying in the house, when is it now, how many things are pressed on the head, not to mention that it is never possible, just so shallow eyes, you can't stay in the right courtyard, the previous Xia Lotus was just a sentence, and she was driven back by the owner, how many times has she been, the owner is entangled in many things, and she doesn't notice it for a while, if she knows, with her current mood, I'm afraid it won't be easy to settle the account, in the future, Xia Wei will thank herself.

Today, Xiu Mu's right minister stood in front of the window of the study, thinking about what he heard from his wife last night, and a fire rose in his heart, his good daughter fell into the hands of him Qin Daochuan, how could it be like this, obviously he treated his daughter harshly, but he didn't know it, he didn't leave him any face in the court recently, and the family banquet was always pushed three or four, when did it start?

Could it be that the Lu family in Qingzhou was pregnant for the first time, and when he sent someone to marry her, it was no wonder that the person who went was either dead or disabled, and the other party was extremely ruthless, not like an ordinary family member, only Qin Daochuan had this ability, his subordinates all came back from the battlefield, which one had not been stained with human blood, and since then, he has slowly become cold to the He family.

He regretted it afterwards, man, who doesn't have heirs, let alone the Qin Mansion.

Wen's is the niece of his beloved concubine Wen when he was young, his parents are gone, and he has been raised under Wen's name, who knows that Wen's one child has a difficult birth, one corpse and two lives, before he died, he took his hand and begged him to be kind to Xiao Wen, who was only nine years old at the time, and he must find a good family for her in the future. Who knew that before he could make a move, she herself climbed up to the succession of the prince of the Guogong Mansion.

In the end, he raised a tiger by himself, and finally harmed his daughter. With the nature of the lady, she will ask the Wen family for it back without his intervention.

It's just that now, the Qingzhou Lu family can't stay any longer, whether it's the idea of the lady stealing the beams and changing the pillars, or the idea of succession, it's not the best policy, and only one hundred can get rid of the future troubles forever.

Alas, this daughter too, when she was a minor, she liked to show off in front of people, and she was almost favored by the emperor, but he used the doll to prevaricate the past, otherwise how can there be harmony with the concubine Niangniang now, how can there be the wealth of the mansion today, with the mind of the eldest daughter, which is the opponent of the concubine Niangniang.

Who knew that she didn't stop for a while, she actually despised herself and had to follow Qin Daochuan, and fell into this step of the field, how could she really care about her if she was only a parent, the eldest daughter of his right minister, the marriage given by the emperor, the second order, how could she not be the duchess of the Guogong Mansion in the future, thinking of this, she turned around and called the steward to come and gave a few orders.

Ruoshu saw Du Jiuqi in the stable on the morning of the third day after Qin Daochuan left, his body was still clean and neat, but his eyes were red, and when he saw Ruoshu, he knelt down on one knee and pleaded guilty, saying that it was not the capital these days, so the owner had been waiting for a long time.

Ruoshu shook his head and said that it was okay, let him get up and talk back.

Jiaosu thoughtfully moved two chairs, and under Ruoshu's repeated instructions, Du Jiuqi sat down.

Ruoshu glanced at Lan Zhi, and Lan Zhi immediately stepped back and stood three meters away, with her back to Ruoshu.

Kakujuku and Samjiu also stood far away in front of the side door.

Ruoshu motioned for Du Jiuqi to sit closer, he hesitated for a while, and gently moved the chair closer.

Ruo Shu said in a low voice: "I see that you have not been in the capital recently, I'm afraid you have collected a lot of information for him, right?" ”

Du Jiuqi replied: "Yes, I went there recently-"

But he was stopped by Ruoshu and said, "Is there any bad news about the right minister?" ”

Du Jiuqi nodded.

Ruoshu continued to ask: "What is related to people's livelihood?" ”

Du Jiuqi said: "There was another insect plague in Dongjun this year, but there are not too many displaced people. However, there was a flood in North County, and now that the weather is hot, I heard that there is a plague in some places. The most famous is Yang Daguang's lawsuit for thousands of miles. And-"

Ruoshu stopped again and said, "It's good that there are more, only these three places may be missing." Has Lu Jiuye arrived in the capital? ”

Du Jiuqi replied: "It's here." ”

Ruoshu said: "You arrange it now, and I will go to see him." ”

Du Jiuqi stood up and arched his hand, turned around and walked towards the door, Jiaosu looked at him worriedly, but he turned his head and glared at him, and Jiaosu nodded helplessly. After he left, he closed the side door, looked back at the owner who was still sitting on the chair, and said in his heart, you also pity our boss, the owner didn't close his eyes for three days and three nights, and almost ran to death a horse.

Ruoshu said lightly, "Participate in the horse and go to the hall." Lan Zhi went to pick up the wooden box. ”

As soon as the group went out of the side door, they stopped, Ruoshu asked Lan Zhi to go out to have a look, and Lan Zhi reported back: "The owner, it is four guards with knives riding horses to stop in front." ”

At this time, I heard someone say loudly: "Madam, before leaving, the general ordered me to wait for the protection of Madame to travel, Madame must not be surprised." ”

Ruoshu listened and asked Lan Zhi to tell Shenjiu and Jiaosu to go with them.

The four of them didn't say anything more, but they were in a group of two, one left and one right, guarding the comfortable carriage and horses.

When they arrived at the back door of the hall, the four of them did not go in, but only guarded the back door.

Du Jiuqi saw it, and quietly asked Jiaosu, Jiaosu shook his head and didn't know, Du Jiuqi remembered Ruoshu's words just now, and guessed that it was related to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion.

When they arrived at the private room, Lu Jiuye and Zeng Ye were already waiting inside, and after seeing the ceremony, Ruoshu said straight to the point: "The ninth master is very fast. ”

Lu Jiuye replied: "As soon as Lu Jiu got the letter, he set off immediately, and he didn't dare to miss the owner's affairs. ”

Ruoshu asked, "Qingzhou can be arranged?" ”

Lu Jiuye replied: "The person chosen by Zengye, Lu Twenty, has been working in the Qingzhou account office since he was self-conscious, and now he has taken over Lu Jiu's errand. ”

Ruoshu asked, "Can Grandpa make it clear to you?" ”

Lu Jiuye replied: "Lu Jiu thanks the owner for his appreciation, please ask the owner to command." ”

Ruoshu said: "The shopkeeper of Fushun Yinlou has everything the same as Luzeng Yinlou, and you should know the general situation in Qingzhou, and the specific details will naturally be known when you take over the position of shopkeeper." But here's a big deal, and I have something to test you. ”

Lu Jiuye replied: "Lu Jiu is at the behest of the owner. ”

Ruoshu turned his head and asked Lan Zhi to open the wooden box, and said to Lu Jiuye: "Here is a silver ticket for 100,000 taels of Lu Zengyin Building, one hundred taels and one piece, I want you to exchange it for broken silver pieces of unknown origin, about five taels each, and the error cannot exceed five millimeters, how many days can you do this?" ”

Lu Jiuye replied briskly: "Go back to the east, ten days." ”

When Zeng Ye heard this, he was almost anxious, and Ruoshu then asked, "How to do it?" ”

Lu Jiuye said: "These days are when the shopkeepers of various banks hand over the quarterly silver, just re-melt and weigh in the silver buildings in various places, if according to the number of the last quarter, only take fifty percent to me, there are also August ten thousand taels, another two thousand taels, Lu Jiu went to ask Boss Du for help, in other silver buildings or shops around the capital to exchange for silver taels, he owes me a favor, should pay me back." ”

When Ruoshu heard this, he was happy and said: "Du Jiuqi will also owe everyone a favor, which is rare." Except for the time when the silver is dissolved, the rest is also feasible. ”

Lu Jiuye knelt down on one knee and arched his hand: "East, Lu Jiu is willing to take over this position." ”

Ruoshu said, "Okay, I'll give you this opportunity." If you do this, you will be the shopkeeper of Fushun Silver Building. ”

Lu Jiuye arched his hand again, got up and took the wooden box in Lan Zhi's hand, and turned to leave.
