Dou Zhao smiled and said, "My mother-in-law is from a general and she should be in good health. Why will her health become very poor after giving birth to the second master?"

Song Mo's expression dimmed, and he whispered: "My mother and my second uncle have the best relationship. Hanzhu's cousin is the second uncle's posthumous daughter. When my mother was pregnant with Tianxiang, Hanzhu's cousin suddenly had chickenpox. The high fever did not subside. My mother was extremely anxious. She went to the palace to ask the Empress Dowager for medicine. She took care of Hanzhu's cousin for several days with her second aunt. Later, she became angry and lay in bed for more than half a month.

"Later, my grandfather died. Although the palace sent eunuchs and female officials to help organize the funeral, my mother could not let go and she became angry again.

"When I was born with Tianen, I had to bleed heavily and almost lost my life. Tianen was born very weak. He didn't suck milk after three days of landing. My grandmother was devoted to her mother and didn't care about Tianen, so she gave Tianen to her father. The father didn't know how to take care of the child, so she had to invite her aunt to take care of Tianen for two or three months.

"My mother also felt that she owed Tianen a lot and was particularly indulging in Tianen. She only wanted him to be healthy and grow up safely and peacefully, and did not dare to ask for anything else," he said, smiling bitterly, "As far as the ruthlessness is concerned, Tianen became like this!"

After more than a hundred years of founding the country, most of the children of the family of meritorious deeds are like Song Hanlin.

If there were no experiences in previous lives, Dou Zhao thought it would be good to have a younger brother-in-law like Song Han, but she firmly believed that Song Mo would not kill his father for no reason, so there would definitely be problems with Song Yichun and Song Han.

But she has no evidence now.

Dou Zhao comforted Song Mo indifferently: "Ten fingers still have their own strengths and weaknesses. You can't ask the second master to be the same as you, right? He has been as good as you since he was a child, and he can grow up to such a big age safely. It is God's favor. You can't be greedy for the sake of heaven."

Song Mo put his shoulders on her smile, and kissed her on the cheek.

Dou Zhao changed the subject and said, "What do you think about the Hanlin Academy? What should I leave to Bo Yan?"

"Bo Yan?" Song Mo was very surprised and hesitated. "Is this OK?"

"I think he is more suitable." Dou Zhao said, "First of all, he has traveled to many places over the years, and is steady, steady, upright, chivalrous, and smart and changeable. He, a new Jinshi, came to deal with Zhao Jiepei and Chen Songming, which is not so eye-catching, and can also make Zhao and Chen less alert." She said, helping Song Mo tidy up his clothes and smiled, "Second, I am also a little selfish - if things are really as we guessed, with his status and eloquence, it is easier to impress the fifth uncle to make the right choice, so as not to drag the Dou family down."

Dou Qijun is his own person no matter what.

Song Mo naturally prefers to use his own people.

He thought, "Then I'll find an opportunity to talk to Boyan and talk about his words."

It is only three years before the Liao Palace has changed, and time is getting more and more urgent.

Dou Zhao couldn't help but urge Song Mo: "Then tell him earlier."

Song Mo was touched and said, "I don't know what the King of Liao is going to do? It's really worrying to wait like this far away."

Dou Zhao reminded him: "He wants to get things done. He must have a chance, right? As long as the emperor is healthy for one day, he will have no excuses to enter Beijing for one day."

Song Mo's eyes lit up as he heard this.

The next day, Dou Qijun was invited to have dinner at the Zuixian Tower. Then Song Mo entered the palace to serve on duty. Dou Qijun ran to see Dou Zhao with a pale face, but sat in her flower hall and wanted to speak but stopped, with an uneasy face.

Dou Zhao sighed and simply went straight to the point with him: "This is just our guess, but I am afraid that if it is a fact, there is a whole family on both sides, so it is always better to prevent problems before they happen."

Dou Qijun nodded, looking a little dazed.

Dou Zhao asked Chen Qushui to send Dou Qijun home.

After the carriage was halfway through, Dou Qijun came to his senses. He looked up but saw Chen Qushui's quiet face under the shaking light. He couldn't help but be stunned and lifted the curtain of the carriage. Outside the carriage were Duan Gongyi and Chen Xiaofeng's agile figures.

He realized in vain that his fourth aunt was very extraordinary, and seemed to have prepared for everything today a long time ago.

The thought flashed and he couldn't help laughing.

At that time, most of the fourth aunts were too young. The Liao King had not yet opened a mansion, so how could things happen as he imagined?

I was really scared today and had some random thoughts.

He smiled and thanked Chen Qushui, jumped out of the carriage, waved at Chen Qushui freely, and walked into the door.

Chen Qushui looked at his back and smiled slightly, and ordered the coachman to go home.

Dou Zhao, Mrs. Jiang, became more and more interested in the past events of Song Yichun.

After the Buddha's birthday, Dou Qijun passed the exam for Shujishi, and received the Five Poison Sacrificial Sacrificial Sauce and Iron Medicine in the palace. Dou Zhao took advantage of Dou Shiying's rest and returned to Jing'an Temple Hutong. In addition to giving his father the Dragon Boat Festival gift, he also brought his father two bottles of Iron Medicine in the palace.

When the daughter came back to see him, Dou Shiying was naturally overjoyed and left her to have lunch at home. She checked Dou Zhao's words in the study and gave her two excellent Shoushan stone seals.

Dou Zhao smiled and said, "Dad remembers clearly that he gives me the same thing every time."

Dou Shiying said proudly: "You have liked this since you were a child, why don't I remember it?"

Dou Zhao looked at the silver threads on Dou Shiying's temples, thought for a while, and said, "Did my father and Mrs. Seventh just plan to drag it like this? Haven't you ever thought about finding someone to take care of your diet and daily life by your side?"

Dou Shiying seemed a little embarrassed when her daughter asked about her private affairs.

He coughed a few times, looked around and said, "What are Yantang doing? Why don't he come to pick you up?"

Dou Zhao couldn't speak deeper, and smiled and said, "He was pulled to Shenji Camp by Ma Youming and came back only when the lights were in hand. I told him that he would go back early and told him not to pick me up."

Dou Shiying remembered Dou Ming.

He sighed in his heart, and his interest in talking to Dou Zhao was dwindling.

Dou Zhao thought his father was tired, so he said a few words to him, so he got up and said goodbye.

Dou Shiying did not force her to stay and said, "Since Yantang doesn't come to pick you up, it's better to go back early." She sent her sedan chair to the gate.

Because the Dragon Boat Festival is approaching. There are many pilgrims in Jing'an Temple. The sedan chairman in the Duke of England's mansion is afraid of rushing to Dou Zhao, so he turned a corner and walked from Shibei Hutong behind Jing'an Temple. Who knew that there was a family to get married in a wife in Shibei Hutong. The sound of firecrackers kept coming, so the sedan chairman had to bypass Shibei Hutong and walk from Fucheng Street to Xuanwu Street and pass through Yuqiao Street.

The sedan chair staggered and walked forward with his head silenced.

Dou Zhao lifted the curtain in boredom and looked out, but saw the tall spire of Wanming Temple.

She felt aroused in her heart and said to Duan Gongyi beside the sedan chair: "I want to go to Wanming Temple to burn incense."

"This is not possible!" Duan Gongyi smiled and said, "There are people burning incense everywhere today, and you can't squeeze them now. If you really want to go and see me, wait until I go back to discuss with Mr. Yan in the evening, and wait until we say hello to the host of Wanmingsi, and then come with you to burn incense." He said, "It's not that I have entered Kyoto and the people in the British Duke's Mansion have become more particular, but that you are different from the past and cannot bear the fatigue."

Dou Zhao smiled slightly and said, "Or why don't we find a quiet place next to Wanming Temple and sit there! I happened to have something to ask you to inquire."

Duan Gongyi ordered the sedan chairman to park the sedan chair on the side of the road. He sent someone to the front station and found a small teahouse two streets away from Wanming Temple, and placed Dou Zhao in the private room of the teahouse.

Dou Zhao said: "There is a family named Li. A widowed mother lives in Erzhao Hutong nearby with her son and daughter. She moved out 17 years ago. Go and ask me if there are any old neighbors who know where they have moved? If someone asks, you say that it is a distant relative who comes to surrender, and don't attract other people's attention."

The Li family has lived here since the previous dynasty. Even if they moved away, the old neighbors would not be so clean. At the beginning, the news was tight, so it might be difficult for them to contact their old neighbors, but now more than ten years have passed, so maybe some old neighbors may not know where they are going.

Duan Gongyi was suspicious, but he asked nothing and left.

Dou Zhao sat behind the bamboo curtain on the second floor of the teahouse and looked at the crowd around him.

No wonder Song Yichun would set up a golden house near Wanming Temple. There was a street selling rouge and pollen, with people coming and going, and most of them were women. In addition, female pilgrims often come and worship Buddha in Wanming Temple, which were close to the Li family. Whether Song Yichun or Li Tiao Niang came to visit and leave here, it would not attract too much attention.

She sat down and drank two cups of tea, and Duan Gongyi returned.

His expression was a little embarrassed and said, "The neighbor said that since the daughter of the Li family died of sudden illness, the Li family sold their ancestral house and moved out. I asked where I moved, but no one knew. However, the family who lives in the Li family's ancestral house seemed to know the Li family very well. They asked me a lot. I was about to leak the stuff, so I had to run away in panic." He blushed and said, "Madam, I'm sorry, I didn't do what you told me."

Dou Zhao was a little surprised and said, "Can you find out who is living in the Li family's ancestral house now?"

"I asked." Duan Gongyi said, "It was an old neighbor of the Li family who had been around for many years. Seeing that their family was selling cheaply, he bought it. He also said that in the first two years, someone came to ask about the Li family, but unexpectedly, after more than ten years, someone came to ask about the Li family."

Dou Zhao was stunned and said, "Did you ever ask who came to ask about the Li family?"

"I asked." Duan Gongyi said embarrassedly, "But that family became suspicious of me, saying that Li's mother is from the capital, and there are no relatives far away from Hebei... I didn't dare to continue asking."

It seems that such things need to be done by professionals!

Dou Zhao smiled and comforted him a few words, and said in disappointment that he went home.

But as soon as he stepped into the door, a servant came to report: "Mr. Chen from the Jinyiwei sent his wife to give you a Dragon Boat Festival gift. The wife was waiting outside the door and wanted to come in and ask you a question. Do you see it or not?"

At least he found two maids with good skills for himself, so he still has to give him this little face.

Dou Zhao smiled and said, "Then let her come in!"

The servant smiled and called "yes" and turned around and brought someone in.

It was just kowtowing to her on behalf of Chen Jia and saying a few festive words.

When Dou Zhao saw that his wife was fair-looking, with a proper manner, and spoke politely. She was a very safe person. She felt a little favor in her heart and gave her a reward to her two top-notch Feng Hongs.
