After Ruoshu got up, he saw that the weather was fine today, so he prepared to leave the house.

When he arrived at the silver building, Du Jiuqi actually waited there, and after Ruoshu and Zengye finished discussing it, he said that he had something to report.

As soon as he came up, he pleaded guilty first, saying that he had already found a way to clean up He Youwei.

After hearing this, Ruoshu looked at him for a long time before asking, "Why do you have to make your own opinions?" ”

Du Jiuqi said: "The owner, Jiuqi can't swallow this breath, the owner can rest assured, we haven't shown any sloppiness, and no one will know that we did it." ”

Ruoshu said: "Let's hear it." ”

Du Jiuqi said: "He Youwei has a memorial arch on the road every day, it has a history of nearly 100 years, a while ago it rained, there was water, we secretly loosened the foundation, and when he passed by, he pulled down the archway with a rope, so heavy things, even if he could not be stoned to death, he could also break his hands and feet, and then take advantage of the chaos to take away the rope on the ghost of the ghost." ”

Ruoshu listened, still looked at him for a long time, and said: "If something goes wrong, it must be a demon, he has offended only us recently, you think that everyone else is a fool, you can't think of this?" ”

Du Jiuqi said: "Without evidence, how can you plant dirt casually? ”

Ruoshu said: "Since when did my words no longer work? ”

Du Jiuqi said: "The owner, our Qingzhou affairs, the secret guards can do it, and they don't need help from others?" ”

Ruoshu listened, thought for a long time, and said, "How did you guess?" ”

Du Jiuqi said: "This matter started because of him, and the temper of the Yidong family naturally wants him to be responsible." ”

Ruoshu said: "So you rushed to do it with your loophole method? ”

Du Jiuqi said: "Jiuqi can't see it, and ask the owner to make it clear." ”

Ruoshu said: "The archway naturally falls, how can it be the same as pulling it with manpower?" Without any warning beforehand, only a rainstorm and a hundred-year-old archway fell? And it fell on someone who has an enmity with us? I ask you, how many people were injured at that time? ”

Du Jiuqi changed from one knee to two knees, knelt down and said: "The owner, Jiuqi deceived the owner, this matter is still in the planning and has not been implemented." ”

Ruoshu listened, laughed angrily, couldn't help but stand up from behind the table, looked at Du Jiuqi who was kneeling down in front of him, didn't speak for a long time, until he walked to the window, then turned around and said to him: "I used to trust you very much, now, how many points do you think there is left?" ”

Du Jiuqi replied: "Jiuqi has never betrayed the owner, but he is unwilling to let the owner be controlled by others, we can obviously solve this matter by ourselves, why should the owner borrow the hands of others?" ”

Ruoshu did not answer his question directly, and said: "I know that you are an ambitious person, and I have already said that I am willing to fulfill others to find a better place, including you." You speak from your heart, how shall I treat you? ”

Du Jiuqi knelt on the ground and said: "This matter is Jiuqi's mistake, from now on, Jiuqi will not dare to make a mistake in front of the owner, please calm the owner's anger, although the punishment of Jiuqi is." ”

Ruoshu said: "You get up, in the future, you will be a person who wants to be a marquis and worship the prime minister, how can you kneel casually." I have already returned your life contract to you, and now you and I can only be regarded as a cooperative relationship, if you are together, if you are not together, you will be divided, without so much courtesy, I am afraid that I will not be able to stand it. ”

Du Jiuqi straightened up and said: "The owner said so, Jiuqi has no way out, if the owner is unwilling to do it, Jiuqi will cut himself after going to the ancestral house to visit his parents and relatives, my sister Ruoxian is still underage, please take care of the owner." ”

After saying that, he got up and prepared to leave.

Ruoshu stopped him and said, "You still dare to blackmail me? ”

Jiuqi didn't reply, and said: "The owner has said everything just now, and Jiuqi doesn't have any intention of coercing. ”

Ruoshu sneered and said: "No wonder my grandmother said that men in this world are not credible, and they must have their own ideas for everything." I came out of Qingzhou, and I encountered one by one her words. You don't have to die, everyone is scattered, you take your Yangguan Road, and I cross my single-plank bridge. When we see each other in the future, say hello if you like it, and don't like to pretend that you don't know each other. ”

Jiuqi turned his head, looked at her and said, "Dongjia, although I, Du Jiuqi, have no long things, I have never broken my trust. If the owner believes in me again, I will still be the leader of the Secret Guard, and I will be the same for the rest of my life. Even if he can really become a supreme minister one day, he will make it the biggest reliance of the owner and use it for the owner. As long as the owner doesn't drive me anymore, Jiuqi will stay by the owner's side forever. After speaking, she looked at her silently, she stood in front of the window, facing herself, but she couldn't see the expression on her face clearly, and only saw the petite and delicate body motionless in the light and shadow, which made people dare not despise her.

Ruoshu looked at him for a long time before saying, "Okay, I'll believe you again, one last time." ”

Sitting in the carriage back home, Ruoshu thought back to the confrontation with Du Jiuqi just now, and felt that there was something wrong, but he couldn't say it.

When I returned to the house, I was a little depressed.

When Xianya came to ask for peace, seeing her like this, she thought it was because she couldn't go to Jincheng this time, so she said: "Mother, father, they are going to Jincheng to worship their ancestors, and my grandmother originally wanted me to go with me, but I refused, why should you?" ”

Ruoshu glanced at her, and Xianya continued: "Since ancient times, there is a difference between men and women, the male protagonist is outside, and the female protagonist is inside, since my father said it, Xianya should not mess with the rules, and she should stay in the mansion well." ”

Ruoshu glanced at Lan Zhi, who was carrying things in, and said, "Lan Zhi, it's good to put things away, go and see what Ah Yun is doing now, I am free at this time, and I can accompany her to paint." ”

After speaking, he looked at Xianya, who was drinking tea, and said: "Since your father wants you to stay in the mansion well, you can go back early, if you have no food to eat, send someone to the right courtyard to say, I will ask someone to send it." ”

Xianya grabbed the tea bowl in her hand, slowly put it down, got up and returned the salute, and walked out.

Lan Zhi watched her leave the right courtyard, glanced back at Ruoshu, and saw that her face was really ugly, and she didn't dare to say more, so she lowered her head to look for Ah Yun.

When Ah Yun came, he was holding a painting with a small bird on it, which seemed to be the one that copied Qin Daochuan.

Ruoshu looked at it and said: "It's a little interesting, but the color is a little different, maybe it's because the light in your room is not good, wait a few days, the backyard will be cleaned up, after the third brother moves out, he will leave that room to you, his light is good, my mother will arrange it for you, and put a desk for you to draw." ”

Ah Yun asked, "Mother, will the fourth brother and the sixth brother move out in the future?" ”

Ruoshu snorted.

Ah Jun then asked, "Then what can I move in with them?" ”

Ruoshu said: "They are men, and they will be followed by the same boys as them in the future, so they will naturally move to a separate courtyard." You're different, you're Miss Jiao, how can you mix with them? Until there is no good place to go, it is natural to live with my mother. Besides, doesn't your eldest sister live with her great-grandmother? ”

Ah Yun sighed.

Ruo Shu thought to himself, I had to take the time to see how the preparations were going.

As soon as Qin Daochuan came back, he mentioned a few times that he wanted to find another place for Zhong Zhan, and Zhong Lan also said that the boy was older, so how could he still be a nurse and a slave waiting by his side. I have arranged an entourage for them, and they should take care of their daily life in the future, and they will be brothers who will live and die together on the battlefield in the future, and they must cultivate this tacit understanding from the company of years and months since childhood.

Ruoshu has no brothers and sisters, and has been accompanied by Lan Zhi and Lan Xuan since he was a child, and he felt that it made sense, so he began to prepare.

At that time, Du Jiuqi bought a total of five courtyards in the back, and when Lan Xuan and the others got married, they lived in four, and the remaining one lived in the people in the right courtyard.

Now, except for Lan Xuan, the other three didn't plan to return to the capital, so they left three courtyards empty.

This time, Ruoshu packed up two and prepared one for Zhongzhan and one for Zhonglan.

and said to Qin Daochuan that she only managed it, and she couldn't control the rest.

Qin Daochuan said with a smile: That's nature.

When Ah Yun was tired of painting, Ruoshu asked Lan Zhi to ask the nurse to take her back to rest.

He sat in a soft chair and went to the backyard with Lan Zhi.

Ruoshu said: "Lan Zhi, I just remember now, this is my first time here. ”

Lan Zhi said: "When I first bought it, wasn't it inconvenient for the owner? Later, Lan Xuan and the others lived here, how did the owner get there? ”

Ruoshu looked around and said, "It's a little different from the drawings, and I don't know if the changes I made are appropriate?" ”

Lan Zhi said: "Today's weather is good, the owner simply goes shopping, if there is something inappropriate, change it as soon as possible." ”

Ruoshu glanced at her and said, "Yes, Lan Zhi is in charge." ”

Lan Zhi smiled and said, "I'm quite useful." ”

Talking and laughing, I arrived at Zhongzhan's courtyard, the courtyard is quite large, the orientation is good, square, the Qin steward who was busy in the courtyard saw Ruoshu coming, and hurriedly came forward to ask for peace, and said: "Madam, what do you think?" ”

Ruoshu asked: "Why did you choose this one, not in the front and not in the back?" ”

Steward Qin replied: "It was chosen by the eldest son himself, saying that this courtyard is big and convenient for him to move." ”

Ruoshu nodded and continued to ask: "Even so, the courtyard is also up to him, after all, he wants to live by himself for a long time." ”

Steward Qin replied, "Yes." ”

Ruoshu proposed to go to see Zhonglan's courtyard, and Steward Qin accompanied him all the way, saying: "I asked the third prince, and he said that it was casual, as long as it was enough to live, thinking that he was young after all, he chose this courtyard near the right courtyard." ”

Ruoshu walked in, the area was slightly smaller than Zhongzhan's courtyard, but it was also complete, so he said: "The general said that the courtyard of the two of them can't be like mine, the simpler the better, especially not luxurious, and they can only get used to living in the north in the future." ”

Steward Qin replied: "The general has already explained, and said that there will be no female dependents in these two courtyards in the future." But fortunately, both yards have direct access to the front yard, which is not a hassle. ”

Ruo Shu listened, looked at the door of the main wing, and the inside was really simple enough, so he didn't go in, turned around and walked out of the courtyard. said to Steward Qin, who was following behind: "I'll go to Lan Xuan's place to sit down, you can go and get busy!" ”

As soon as I entered the courtyard, I heard Lan Xuan's voice, "Joy, look at you, the clothes I just changed for you are angry with me!" ”

Ruoshu and Lan Zhi looked at each other and smiled, and Lan Zhi said loudly, "Joy, we have come to see you." ”

After a while, a little girl rushed out of the open door, about the same size as Ah Yun, and Lan Xuan followed behind, pulling her to salute together.

Ruoshu stood aside with a smile and watched Lan Zhi bring the things to Joy.

Lan Xuan said embarrassedly: "There is chaos in the house, and the owner doesn't say a word when he comes, which will make me embarrassed." ”

Ruoshu said: "You and I grew up together, if you have anything, you can just sit in the yard." ”

After Lan Xuan said a few words, she said, "Dongjia, I originally wanted to talk to you, Xia Mo and Xia He are pregnant again, I heard that they mean that they will stay in Juntun, I also want to go and see, Qin Nan said for a while, he will return to Juntun if he has something, I can go with him, and he also wants Juntun's family to see us." ”

Ruoshu listened and said: "This is a good thing, I heard that the general intends to buy another house for the four of them in Beijing, and we can still come and go often." ”

Lan Xuan nodded and said, "Even if we don't come to the capital, we can still exchange letters." ”

Ruoshu listened to the meaning of her words and asked, "Do you plan to stay in the military camp for a long time?" ”

Lan Xuan said: "Listening to what Xia Lian said in their letter, the scenery there is beautiful, and there are herds of cattle and sheep, I have long wanted to see it, and maybe I will be as happy as them." The general also often goes to the Northlands, and when the owner goes with him, we can still get together. ”

Ruoshu listened to it and remembered what Qin Daochuan said that he wanted to stay in the north with her and her children, and was silent for a while, but when Lan Xuan saw it, she didn't say anything more.

At this time, Qin Daochuan had already arrived in the guard camp, and he picked up other accompanying personnel, and instructed Qin Dong and the four of them to take people to Qingzhou to find out about Lu Sanye's injury.

After Qin Dong and the four of them were ordered to go, Qin Daochuan set off again with a large group of people, and the prince saw that he had changed people, and he was followed by soldiers dressed in the army, and his heart was even more drumming, and his face was a little unbearable.

Zhong Zhan asked Qin Daochuan curiously, and Qin Daochuan casually said something and sent it away.
