Ninefold Purple

Dou Zhao heard the words and his face gradually turned pale.

Chen Qushui smiled wryly.

A coward who abandoned the city and fled, regardless of the life and death of the people!sinner!

Anyone who knows his experience will sneer at him, right?

He couldn't help lowering his head, and murmured: "Miss, I'm old, and my knees will be sore and painful every time it's windy and rainy. I'm afraid I won't be able to serve you anymore. When the rain stops, I'll come back to the truth." go……"[

There was no sound in the hall, and Dou Zhao neither spoke words to persuade him to stay, nor let him go smoothly. The oppressive silence made the sound of rain falling outside the house more clearly audible, and the hall seemed even quieter.

Chen Qushui raised his head in surprise, and saw Dou Zhao sitting there blankly, his eyes staring straight.

He couldn't help being horrified, and shouted "Miss Four" loudly: "You, what's wrong with you?"

Dou Zhao was in a trance and didn't hear what Chen Qushui said clearly.

She was trying to remember the past.

In the previous life, not long after the Jiang family had an accident, the British wife died of illness, and Song Mo was kicked out of the British government when she was still in her filial piety.

She has never experienced any of this.

Song Mo is one year younger than her.

At that time, she was only thinking about how to marry into the Marquis of Jining, and she was indifferent to people and things other than Marquis of Jining.It wasn't until she married into the Marquis of Jining and entered the elite circle in Kyoto that she heard some things about that year intermittently.

Duke Dingguo's mansion established itself with military merits, and the children were usually thrown into the military barracks to practice as soon as they turned 14 years old. Therefore, there were not a few people who got promoted and got rich and held heavy soldiers, but more people died on the battlefield silently.In order to ensure the prosperity of the offspring.The Jiang family has the habit of accepting concubines, and there is no obvious difference between the concubine and the concubine. They all learn martial arts from the master and study in the Jiang family school.It only depends on who has the ability to lead troops. This point has been criticized by the wealthy in Kyoto.But that's why.The famous generals of the Jiang family came out in large numbers, and their in-laws spread all over the country.

Jiang Meisun is the sixth generation Ding Guogong.He has 12 brothers, and only five are adults.In the third year of Yongming, he was ordered to guard Fujian. Except for the fifth brother Jiang Boxun who stayed in the capital because he was young, the second brother Jiang Zhusun, the third brother Jiang Lansun, and the fourth brother Jiang Songsun all followed him to the south.

Yongming eight years.Jiang Zhusun died in battle, and the emperor posthumously named him Marquis of Qinghai.

During Jiang Meisun's 18 years in charge of Fujian's general army, he made outstanding military exploits and almost wiped out all the Japanese pirates along the coast, so that private ships in Fujian and Zhejiang did not dare to go to sea during the day.As a result, the big commercial firms and wealthy gentry who sell smuggled goods in the south complained endlessly, and those who offended them did not know who they were.But he happened to be on good terms with several cabinet scholars. No matter how the censors of the Metropolitan Procuratorate impeached him, he would be safe and his family would not diminish. Gradually, no one would touch this bad luck.

But at that time, for some unknown reason, a censor suddenly impeached Jiang Meisun for killing good men and taking meritorious deeds, and raising the bandits' self-respect.Jin Yiwei was also ordered to escort the Jiang brothers to the Dali Temple in Kyoto for interrogation.

What is even more strange is that the brothers Jiang Meisun and Jiang Lansun were tortured and died on the way back to Beijing. Jiang Songsun committed suicide as soon as he was imprisoned in Dali Temple.

It is said that after receiving the imperial edict, Mrs. Mei, the wife of the Jiang family, took the Jiang family's female family members, including a three-year-old and a two-year-old granddaughter, while Jinyiwei ransacked the house.All committed suicide by taking poison.

When Caishikou asked about killing, there were only men from the Jiang family and no women.

In the ten years that followed, the Fujian pirates were no longer able to resist, and they repeatedly went ashore to massacre the city.

People in Kyoto shook their heads and sighed "It would be great if Duke Ding was still alive" every time they heard such a thing. [

After King Liao ascended the throne, he vindicated the Jiang family.The portrait of Jiang Meisun entered the Zhongci Temple, and the Dingguo Mansion, which was given to the eldest princess Ningde by the first emperor, was also taken back. The Liao King specially recruited Song Mo to ask if anyone in the Jiang family survived.

Song Mo replied that the Jiang family was a descendant.

However, there have always been rumors in the market that Jiang Meisun's youngest brother, Jiang Baisun, has a posthumous son who is still alive. When something happened to the Jiang family, he was quietly taken away by the Jiang family's loyal servants and raised in Qujie Luxiang.

Mrs. Guo, Mrs. Xuanning Hou, told her about this incident and said with a smile: "Since it's a full house raid, Jin Yiwei's people must count the number of people, not to mention Jiang Boxun's son, he is a close servant, a head and a face. There will be no one less in charge. Those people in the market just like to make up these things, making people think that good people must be rewarded..."

Calculating the time, Song Mo was kicked out of the house in 14 years of Taiping.

Going forward, the British princess should have died in the summer of the 14th year of Taiping...or maybe in the spring or the winter of the 13th year of Taiping...

The Jiang family should have happened in the 13th year of Taiping.

It is now April of the 13th year of Taiping...

Dou Zhao jumped up.

In other words, it is possible that Jiang Meisun was ordered to be questioned at this time!

Dou Zhao thought of the baby who was not yet a hundred days old.

She was sweating profusely, and asked Chen Qushui: "Mr. Chen, do you think something happened to Duke Ding?"

Chen Qushui was puzzled by Dou Zhao's question, and he thought to himself, "Isn't it possible? Ding Guogong looks rough, but in fact he is delicate. Everything is in his heart. He is a general guarding one side. If something happens, There should be some news. We haven't heard anything yet, and Ding Guogong and Zeng Yifen have a very good personal relationship..."

When he said this, his expression froze, and he looked at Dou Zhao.

Dou Zhao was also looking towards him.

The two looked at each other and exclaimed in unison, "Now Zeng Yifen is dead..."

Yes, now that Zeng Yifen is dead, the cabinet is changing from the old to the new, and the elders of the cabinet don't care about themselves. How can there be time to pay attention to Jiang Meisun who is far away in Fujian?

If anyone has a grudge with Jiang Meisun, this is a good time to do it.

"Could something really happen to Duke Ding?" Chen Qushui's forehead was also sweating thinly, "Then, that child..."

"Tuogu!" Dou Zhao said, taking a long breath.

Only Tuo Gu could act in such a secretive way, and let Song Mo, the son of the British prince, follow him lightly and escort him all the way with a master himself.

She tried her best to calm down slowly, and said calmly: "Now we can only pretend that we don't know anything." Then she looked up at the roof.He murmured, "I hope this rain will stop soon, and even if it doesn't stop, it will fall less." [

They are on their way.will leave early.

Chen Qushui's complexion became very ugly. He looked at Dou Zhao with a look of embarrassment, and said softly, "I'm afraid it's not that simple..."

Dou Zhao frowned.Listen carefully to what he has to say.

"Have you noticed the green-clothed scribe standing beside Song Shizi?" Chen Qushui said with difficulty, "His surname is Yan, his name is Yun, and his style name is Chaoqing. , I heard that he was favored by Duke Ding’s younger sister, Mrs. Ying, and he was going to be a teacher for my son. I just recognized him, so I guessed that the young man belonged to Song Mo, the son of the Duke of England.”

Dou Zhao understood, and hurriedly said, "Did that person recognize you?"

"Back then, Yan Chaoqing was a celebrity in front of Ding Guogong, and I was just one of Zhang Kai's many aides. But this person is thoughtful and has a photographic memory. Because of this, he was appointed to be in charge of the documents of the General Military Mansion." Chen Qushui said frankly. Authentic, "When I saw him, I hurriedly retreated to the room. I don't know if he saw me or not."

※※※※※

Song Mo didn't sleep either.

There was no light in the room, and he stood in front of the fan, looking out at the pouring rain with a calm expression.

A gust of wind blew away, blowing away the strands of rain.The air is filled with moist moisture.

A thin figure quietly walked out from the darkness, he stopped three feet away from Song Mo, and said respectfully: "My lord, be careful not to get caught in the rain. Do you want me to close the door?"

Song Mo ignored him and asked, "Has Mr. Yan not come back yet?"

The man was about to answer when he suddenly turned his ear to listen.Then he showed a smile and said, "Young Master, Mr. Yan is here."

Song Mo nodded, turned around and sat down on the grand teacher's chair next to him.

Yan Chaoqing and a rather simple-looking man walked in drenched, and the water from the corners of his clothes dripped onto the green brick floor.

"Young master." The two saluted Song Mo, and Song Mo pointed to the grand master's chair beside him, signaling them to sit down and talk.

Unaffected by the night, the thin figure quickly poured a cup of tea for each of them, and then quietly retreated into the darkness.

Song Mo asked calmly: "Did you find anything?"

Yan Chaoqing and the man who came with him looked at each other, and they couldn't help showing a bit of a bitter smile: "My lord, I'm afraid we will be in trouble this time!"

Song Mo looked at the two peacefully.

The man who came with Yan Chaoqing said: "We met one of Zhang Kai's aides." Then he explained the grievances between Jiang Meisun and Zhang Kai, "This man's surname is Chen, his name is Bo, his style name is Qushui, and his name is Yuechuan. He is proficient in documents. Laws, who are good at judging people and judging people, and with sharp words, have the talent of Zhang Yi. When Zhang Kai sent troops to attack Dubian Fifty Lang, it was this person who persuaded Daoyuan, the governor of Zhejiang Province, to send troops to help. He is now working in this family Mister Accountant."

"Are you sure?" Song Mo's face revealed a solemn look for the first time.

"Yes!" Yan Chaoqing said with certainty, "Xu Qing took me to lie outside his door for almost half an hour, and he was very restless all the time. It seems that I want to say something to Miss Dou's fourth, and I recognize us after thinking about it."

Song Hei was silent for a long while, then said softly: "There is a guard who has reached the pinnacle of martial arts from his family, and an accountant who was once Zhang Kai's staff, plus a dozen or so followers with extraordinary skills, this Fourth Miss of the Dou family, It's really not easy. Xu Qing," he smiled and told the man who came with Yan Chaoqing, "keep an eye on this house and don't allow anyone to come in or out." Then he said to Yan Chaoqing, "I'm afraid we will stay here for another day tomorrow. Please rest early, sir!"

Yan Chaoqing and Xu Qing's expressions tightened.

Their whereabouts have been leaked, and the young master's words are to kill people to silence them.

Xu Qing hesitated and said, "There are more than [-] of them..."

"Be even more cautious." Song Mo was unmoved, and his tone was light.

The two didn't say anything anymore, they responded in unison, and retreated.

Song Mo looked at the night like a thing, calmly walked through the furnishings in the house, and raised the curtain to enter the Nuan Pavilion behind.

In the Nuan Pavilion, only a bean-like oil lamp was lit.

The soft-featured nanny and Yiqu lay beside the baby, and immediately sat up vigilantly when she heard the sound. Seeing that it was Song Mo, she breathed a sigh of relief, called "Young Master" softly, and was about to get up and get down. bed.

Song Mo made a gesture to signal her not to wake up the child, then bent down and gently stroked the child's black hair, and said with a smile, "Is the child okay?" The smile was very gentle, so peaceful under the light Detailed and harmonious, people feel at ease immediately after seeing it.

The wet nurse nodded and smiled: "Young master is very obedient, he doesn't cry or make trouble." When she said this, she couldn't help tears when she thought of the birth mother of the child who hanged herself in order to keep the secret.

"Don't worry," Song Mo comforted her, "We'll be there soon."

The wet nurse nodded vigorously, looking at him with eyes full of trust.

Song Mo walked out of the Nuan Pavilion tall and straight.
