Ninefold Purple

Mrs. Jing Guogong Zhang Pei's wife Yuan almost died of dystocia when she gave birth to her son Zhang Yuanming. Zhang Yuanming was dull by nature and became obese and fat when he grew up. Madam Yuan felt upset when she saw it. She preferred her second son Zhang Jiming and youngest son Zhang Xuming. Therefore, Zhang Yuanming is already in his twenties, and Jing Guogong's mansion has not yet established a son. This not only makes Wei Tingzhen very disturbed, but also makes Zhang Jiming and Zhang Xuming very disturbed.Jing Guogong's mansion looked at the colorful flowers, but under the surface, there was an undercurrent.

Wang Qinghai is the fourth son of the Marquis of Ting'an, and he has a good relationship with Wei Tingyu, so he naturally knows the ins and outs of this.

Hearing this, he fell silent, and asked Wei Tingyu softly, "Then what are you going to do?"

Wei Tingyu said: "So I have to go back and find my father quickly!"

Wang Qinghai lifted his spirits and said, "You mean..."

Wei Tingyu's face flushed instantly: "I can't let Miss Dou get divorced, right? How will she live then?" He stammered and said with a twisted expression.

Wang Qinghai laughed loudly, and patted Wei Tingyu's shoulder vigorously, causing Wei Tingyu to stagger and almost fall: "I knew that Brother Wei is a good man who stands up to the sky, and he wouldn't just run back like this .Let’s go, I’ll accompany you to tell the old master.”

Wei Tingyu nodded and put his arms around Wang Qinghai's shoulders. The two got on their horses and rode away with whips.

In the flower hall, Dou Zhao was still talking to Chen Qushui: "...Have you ever thought about why the Dou family and the Wei family retired, why did you not come forward, but let the He family come forward?"

Chen Qushui also thought about this issue, and he said cautiously: "I think it may be because the sixth master and the seventh master strongly opposed this marriage, and the fifth master didn't want to destroy the friendship between brothers, so he had to leave this matter to He For the Sixth Master and the Seventh Master, it can be said that it is to let the He family retreat in the face of difficulties; for the He family, there can be an explanation, and neither party will offend. The biggest reason is actually because the fifth master is currently competing for the pavilion. At the critical moment of the old age, there is no room for any mistakes, especially no stains on morality to be caught by the opponent - the reason why the fifth master can compete with Wang Xingyi is because the fifth master has behaved well over the years and is anxious Righteousness, highly praised by colleagues..."

Dou Zhao kept nodding.Laughing: "We have to seize this opportunity!"

"Opportunity?" Chen Qushui was puzzled: "What opportunity? The matter has already escalated, the Wei family will not return the token to the He family, right? Then what have they become? Selling their wives for glory, the Wei family can still be in the Xun family in the future." Get a foothold in the noble circle!"

"Don't be so absolute about anything." Dou Zhao said, "I may not know about other things, but I know everything about the Wei family. At this time, the Jining Hou Mansion has been far away from the temple and the royal family for a long time. It not only needs the support of powerful officials to get generous errands to support the family, but also needs money to support the increasingly embarrassing expenses." As she spoke, she paused, and mentioned Zhang Yuanming: "...he is about to It's a concubine, and it's an elder. And it's too early to ask for the crown prince. This matter is just a piece of cake for the He family. With Wei Tingzhen helping to talk about Xiang, with the love of Wei Laohou and his wife for her, ten times In the eighth and ninth meetings, the Wei family will agree that Wei Tingyu will use Zhang Zaiming's invitation to be crowned son to negotiate terms with the He family."

Chen Qu couldn't help raising his eyebrows, and looked down on the Wei family even more in his heart.Said: "What does Fourth Miss mean?"

"I would like to ask you, sir, to go to the capital in person and have a good talk with Wei Laohou." Dou Zhao said with a smile, "Whether it is for face or profit, it is the best choice to leave the token with the Wei family. After all, I The fifth uncle may also become the elder of the court. I have a large and generous dowry." After finishing speaking, she joked again, "You can also take this opportunity to help my fifth uncle rectify his name-it's not that our Dou family wants to withdraw this marriage, it's completely It's because the Wei family has ignored this marriage for so many years. They bow their heads to marry a wife and raise their heads to marry a daughter. The Dou family can't come to the door by themselves, can they?"

Chen Qushui hesitated, and said, "Can you tell the Wei family how much property you own?"

"That's not necessary." Dou Zhao said with a smile. "I'm afraid I won't be able to get away at that time. After all, I'm the daughter of the Dou family, so it's normal for the dowry to be richer than an ordinary family."

She thought of Wei Tingzhen's satisfied expression when she saw her dowry when she married into the Wei family in her previous life.

Chen Qushui understood, and said with a smile, "I will definitely pin this fault on the Wei family."

Dou Zhao giggled twice.

※※※※※

Ji Yong smiled as he looked at the note in his hand.

The Wei family proposed that if the He family could help Zhang Yuanming to be crowned son, they would return the engagement token to the He family.

not bad. [

Dou Zhao is worthy of the title of prince at any rate.

He couldn't help but curled up his mouth, and ordered the boy who was close to him to say: "You take my name card, let's go to the Jining Hou's Mansion." His tone seemed a little happy.

Therefore, Zishang boldly smiled and said, "What are we going to do in Jining Marquis Mansion? We are not familiar with those noble families..."

Ji Yong glanced at him coldly.

Zishang hurriedly asked the maid to help Ji Yong change clothes, went to Ji Yong's study to get a name card, sent someone to set up a carriage, and accompanied Ji Yong out.

They lived in the Ji family's house in Jingdu Gongzhong, which was located in Nanxunfang, the most central part of Kyoto, where the six government offices, Hanlin Academy, and Zhan Shifu were located.The three-room house with five entrances and three roads occupies one-third of Yuhe Hutong, which is very grand.

In the main courtyard they met several young men dressed as scholars.

Seeing Ji Yong, they made way for him from a distance.

Ji Yong didn't even raise the corner of his eyes, and just turned a blind eye and walked away.

But Zishang recognized that the leader was Young Master Min from Twelve Masters' family, and the others were unknown, so they should be students of Young Master Min's Guozijian.

He smiled at Master Min as a greeting, and then he heard someone in the group say dissatisfiedly: "This is your successful young man Xie Yuanlang? Isn't he too arrogant? Not as good as him, but it may not be the day when there will be no title on the gold list..."

I heard Master Min laughing and saying: "Brother Jieyuan, you have misunderstood. My younger brother is not arrogant, but 'only reads the books of sages and sages, but does not hear foreign affairs'. I don’t understand these worldly things. Don’t talk about you and him. It's the first time we met, even if we have known each other for a long time, and haven't seen each other for some days. He will also immediately forget what you look like. For this reason, my younger brother has made a lot of jokes. Everyone in our family is used to it. You and him We've known each other since we've been together for a long time, since he was a child he didn't recognize people..."

Fortunately, I met Master Min.If you meet Young Master Yu, let alone explain to Young Master, it's good that he doesn't instigate others to trouble Young Master.

Zishang quickly caught up with Ji Yong and walked out of the gate.Just as he was about to say something nice for Master Min in front of Ji Yong, he saw a black lacquered carriage wrapped in green cloth parked in front of them.

Getting out of the car was Ji Yong's father, Ji Qi.

He was about forty years old, wearing the official fourth-grade scarlet official uniform embroidered with cloud and wild goose patch, handsome, gentle and elegant.

Ji Qi smiled and asked his son: "Jianming, where are you going?"

Ji Yong didn't even blink.Said: "I'm going to Yubaoxuan to see if there is a better inkstone."

"Is there enough money?"

Ji Yongli ignored him and got into the carriage directly.

The son helped him and replied: "Enough, enough!"

Ji Qi didn't think so, nodded, and told them to "be careful". [

The son nodded again and again.Hastily saluted Ji Qi and climbed into the carriage.

Ji Qi watched their carriage drive out of Daiqiao Alley before entering the gate.

※※※※※

The Jining Marquis Mansion is located in Yumingfang in the west of the city, where Yan’an Marquis Mansion, Changxing Marquis Mansion, and Xingguo Duke Mansion all opened their mansions. Most of the founding meritorious deeds of the previous dynasties opened their mansions there, and it is also nicknamed "Fugui Fang" by people in Kyoto. .

Ji Yong met Chen Qushui who came out from Jining Hou at the gate of Jining Hou's mansion.

He was surprised.

Chen Qushui was even more surprised, and stepped forward to salute Ji Yong.

Ji Yong said, "Why are you here? Where's Miss Fourth?"

Chen Qushui said with a smile: "Miss Si is really determined, she sent me to the Jining Hou Mansion to do something."

Ji Yong frowned, pulled Chen Qushui and said, "What did Miss Si send you here for?"

Chen Qushui smiled but did not answer.

Ji Yong looked at the joy in the corner of his eyes and eyebrows.There is a faint feeling in my heart.

He snorted coldly and said, "Don't think that I can't find out. Tell me, it's just to save me a little effort."

Chen Qu said without a smile: "Being entrusted by others is a matter of loyalty. Please don't make things difficult for me, Mr. Ji."

Ji Yong sneered and said, "I didn't expect that Zhang Kai, the governor of Fujian, is a soft bone, but his staff are loyal and brave men."

Zhang Kai, the governor of Fujian, abandoned the city and fled when the Japanese pirates attacked Fuzhou.He was beheaded by the sword by Jiang Meisun, the commander-in-chief of Fujian and the Duke of Dingguo, and his head was hung on the city wall of Fuzhou for three days.

Chen Qushui's face changed drastically, and his expression suddenly became very cold: "Then I have to ask Ji Juren to find out by himself." After speaking, he swayed his sleeves and boarded a carriage next to him, and walked away.

Looking at Ji Yong with a gloomy face anxiously, he couldn't help muttering in his heart.

The young master has never been looked down upon like this before at such a young age. I'm afraid he will be very angry?

I don't know how the young master will punish this Mr. Chen?

However, this Mr. Chen seems to belong to Miss Dou's Fourth Miss, who is also very powerful, pretending to be deaf and dumb, and beat that Pang Kunbai half to death.If the young master punishes her, I don't know if she will come to the young master to settle the score?

Although the young master has a strong personality, every time he meets the fourth young lady of the Dou family, it is like fire meeting water. No matter how strong your fire is, she can chill the young master's heart with a few words, and make the young master calm down for a long time. I can't breathe.

If the Fourth Miss of the Dou family had a dispute with the young master, would this little fish and shrimp be affected?

Thinking in pain, Ji Yong gritted his teeth and said "Let's go back".

The young master is not going to Jining Marquis Mansion anymore?

He was slightly taken aback, and hurriedly helped Ji Yong get into the carriage.

In the evening, when Zixi, who helped Ji Yong inquire about the news, came back, Ji Yong was furious in the room.

"This woman, can't she be more peaceful? I said I will help her, and I will naturally handle things properly. She is not in the limelight!" After cursing, he slumped on the grand master's chair again, Looking at the blue-green twig pattern painted on the top of his head, Chengchen grinned: "However, he is really smart and capable..." He jumped up and asked, "What restaurant in Kyoto is the best?" Okay, I want to invite He Yu to drink!"
