Heshen is a strict wife

On the third day of September, Yinglian officially left for his post.

Nanjing, called Jiangning in ancient times, is a prosperous place in the south of the Yangtze River.

From the second rank, there is usually only one chief envoy in a province, but Jiangsu is a very special place. There are two chief envoys in this province, one in Jiangning, with jurisdiction over Jiang, Huai, Yang, Xu, Tong, There are six prefectures in the sea; one is in Suzhou, which governs the five prefectures of Su, Song, Chang, Zhen, and Tai.

Ying Lian was the political envoy of Jiangning, and concurrently served as Jiangning weaving.

The job of weaving is quite interesting to say the least.

Others may think it's nothing, but when Feng Shuangzhi finally stopped after rocking on the boat for a few days, and came to this weaving mansion where celebrities from later generations lived, he felt an unspeakable feeling.

Generally, this position is only in charge of various fabrics paid to the emperor, but later, it became a rather special position.

However, all Jiangning weaving is done by ministers of the Eight Banners dispatched from the Ministry of Internal Affairs. They are usually the emperor's confidantes, and they can secretly perform affairs during the reign of Emperor Yongzheng. Notify them one by one.

But Feng Shuangzhi's understanding of this official position is actually only in the Jiangnan Cao family.

However, now the weaving Cao family has fallen.

"Miss, why don't you leave?" Xi Tao was a little surprised to see Feng Shuangzhi stopped in front of the gate of Jiangning Weaving Mansion.

Feng Shuangzhi just stood still, he couldn't explain Cao Xueqin to her, and he couldn't talk about "Dream of Red Mansions". Even if Cao Xueqin was still alive, he might be in a state of desperation.

This Jiangning Weaving Mansion has already been copied, but after all, it has a profound heritage, and it looks grand and graceful from a distance.

The officials who received Ying Lian in front had already lined up and waited respectfully below, but Feng Shuangzhi did not attend.

I heard that Jiangnan's officialdom is the darkest, what's going on, now I'm starting to understand, Yinglian cannot do without entertainment, lured those people away, and left Feng Shuangzhi alone.

She stood in front of the plaque, pondered for a long time, "Go in."

The Zhizai Mansion in Jiangning used to be the residence of Lord Kangxi. Qianlong made two tours to the south, and both of them were repaired. The Weaving Mansion occupies a very large area.

Feng Shuangzhi didn't know what the truth was, but just after entering the door, many servant girls came down to greet her: "Slaves greet Second Miss Feng."

"Get up, it's hard for you to wait so early."

When she first came here, Feng Shuangzhi didn't understand the situation and acted very generously. These people probably didn't know what her reputation was in the capital.

Feng Shuangzhi held a fan in his hand and asked the maids to lead the way.

"Second miss, this weaving mansion is the residence of the sage when he toured the south, but my lord and you live in the Nanheng courtyard, so go this way." The servant girl seems to have been taking care of here for a long time, and she is very familiar with it. Condition.

After all, because of the particularity of the Jiangning Weaving Mansion, the maids who can lock the chat here must be quite familiar with the situation.

The officials below have arranged everything, and they are just waiting for Yinglian to come down, and they are rushing to curry favor.

Feng Shuangzhi smiled slightly: "What's your name?"

"Slave Shishi." The servant girl replied very reservedly, and led Feng Shuangzhi through the corridor through the mountain, and after passing through several doors, she saw the sign of "Nanheng Courtyard", "This is it, it's a The front and back yards, according to the previous practice, the female relatives are all in the back garden."

Feng Shuangzhi knew this well, so he didn't ask any more questions. He didn't bring much, just a few maids carried them. Feng Shuangzhi followed the maids in, but suppressed his doubts and didn't ask.

A servant girl's name is so named...

Maybe it's a place in the south of the Yangtze River, a little different, right?

Feng Shuangzhi didn't think much about it for the time being. When he arrived in the back garden, he realized that this place in the south of the Yangtze River is beautiful. Even though it was already late autumn, the flowers, plants and trees were not withered, and there was plenty of moisture. There were pots of dragon claws piled up in the yard. Chrysanthemums, begonias are almost connected in one piece by the courtyard wall, and there is a maple forest behind the rockery from a distance. The leaves are all yellow and fallen all over the ground, which is very beautiful.

The emperor's palace, this treatment is really unusual.

"Miss, in this room, if you see something inappropriate, tell the maid outside the yard, and we will adjust it for you."

Shishi led the other maids to tidy up their things, and came to report after tidying up. She peeked at Feng Shuangzhi, as if secretly guessing whether the master was taking good care of her.

Feng Shuangzhi sat on the main seat in the hall, here, he could see the rockery and flowing water outside as soon as he raised his eyes, it was indescribably comfortable.

She was tired from the long journey, so she had to talk about things tomorrow, so she let the maids go down first, and then said: "I'll rest early today, and I'll talk about other things tomorrow."

"Yes."

Xitao responded and waited for Feng Shuangzhi to wash up, then went out to change into a green gauze curtain, but saw Feng Shuangzhi looking at something under the lamp.

At her hand was the fan given by Deng Tuzi. She pressed some letter papers and sat under the lamp. , you hold down a bit, don't let the maids below think that we are easy to bully."

After all, she is a newcomer, an old maid and new master, who knows what will happen in the future?

Feng Shuangzhi had already explained some things on the way, and while she was talking, she put the notes into the box.

Turning around, Xitao waited for her to fall asleep, drank some warming and soothing soup before going to sleep, and then lay down.

However, the fan was placed next to her pillow, and Xi Tao was about to leave, but she still couldn't hold back.

"Miss, I still don't understand...why do you..."

"Xi Tao...you will understand in the future."

She was tired and didn't want to talk anymore.

Maybe someone else would think that Feng Shuangzhi is crazy, but she doesn't.

The box was placed in her new dowry, but there was nothing serious about it.

She's not crazy, nor is she shameless, it's just that she raised these things at a premature time.

After all, Feng Shuangzhi had a teacher named Zheng Shifang, and Zheng Shifang was also in contact with He Shen.

Sometimes, Zheng Shifang would bring over the things written by the students in the Xian'an Academy, and occasionally ask Feng Shuangzhi's opinion - Zheng Shifang used to use these things to test her.

Feng Shuangzhi would hide it at first, but after a long time, she felt that her sharp thoughts would be discovered sooner or later, so she simply stopped hiding, and secretly dared to comment on the things written by those Eight Banners disciples.

Zheng Shifang sometimes thinks the same as Feng Shuangzhi, but the two start from different perspectives when making comments. Occasionally, Feng Shuangzhi's remarks are more brilliant, and Zheng Shifang shamelessly uses them directly.

I don't think the time is short, but in the Xian'an Academy, occasionally some people will receive very strange comments, and among these people is He Shen.

So gradually, Feng Shuangzhi also saw something different from the poems and essays of so many people.

That time, she opened it by chance and saw the strategy, which was about the relationship between staff and officials.The aides are generally the think tanks of officials, providing advice for officials. In the end, He Shen wrote "For officials, officials, customers?" at the end, which made her feel unusual.

I always feel that this seems to imply that behind Zheng Shifang, Feng Shuangzhi is also reading his theories. After all, sometimes her views are quite different from Zheng Shifang's.

He Shen may refer to the fact that in addition to Zheng Shifang, the teacher who is an "official", there is also the person behind the "Guest Qing"—that is, Feng Shuangzhi.

This time, she borrowed Zheng Shifang's mouth and gave a comment.

——An official is still an official, and a guest is always a guest.Officials have functions, and guests have guest posts.

So after going back and forth, next time Feng Shuangzhi will find other meaningful articles...

On the day when Zheng Shifang was about to leave, what Feng Shuangzhi saw were the poems and essays homework submitted by the entire Xian'an Academy.

Others wrote about the Bold and Unconstrained School, but he picked the Huajian School to comment on that time, and in the end he even touched on the word gambling, so he quoted a sentence——Linglong Dice An Hongdou, lovesickness.

The next sentence was "you know that gambling is gambling, why don't you give up gambling? Confrontation: I don't know the outcome, the game may be victorious, but if you abandon it, you will lose."

Feng Shuangzhi finally read it out, but he was not sure.

However, the matter of Fukan'an is like a curse, which is always in her mind.

Every word and sentence of Heshen is talking about strategies, but he also wrote his own thoughts into it. Feng Shuangzhi can see it clearly if he has a heart.

Only that time, she didn't express any opinions on other people's policies, because she didn't know how to answer them.

Originally, I was thinking about talking about marriage after she came back from Jiangning, but——

She didn't expect that when she went to visit Yuan Mei for the last time, she would meet him.

Since ancient times, a gifted scholar and a beautiful woman have been the perfect match in other people's mouths, but she is from a wealthy family, and He Shen is from a declining family, so the family status does not seem to be very equal.

After Heshen and Zheng Shifang left, he didn't get any other word-for-word news. He just expressed his heart, but he hasn't gotten her reply yet.

But he intercepted her carriage and drew a fan for her.

That "Shi Zhonglan" was reminded by He Shen himself, and finally Feng Shuangzhi burned it himself, because he didn't want to have anything to do with Qian Feng.However, He Shen actually knew the face of that fan, and repainted it.

When he passed the fan to her through the curtain of the car, she held it in her hand and remembered that sentence.

He knew that she was interested in him, and she also knew that he was interested in her, but it had never appeared so directly.

Even they have been communicating in that obscure way, without using direct words to confirm each other's intentions.

What's more, maybe the communication and the like are all their conjectures...

But when He Shen stood in front of her car, she knew it and didn't think much about it, everything was like this.

So she said such things directly, not because she hadn't been afraid, because she was afraid that he would think her contemptuous, but she was not so sober at the time—Feng Shuangzhi felt that she was actually a very timid person, especially after going through the previous life. After that incident, she has always had a feeling of fear about her marriage.

In history, Feng Jiwen died of illness. In her previous life, she was pushed down and drowned by her concubine. It didn't seem to have a happy ending. When I said it, I was not afraid, but when the real thing came, I would still be worried.

At that moment, if he didn't say it, Feng Shuangzhi felt that he would never say such a thing in his life.

Although it was out of line, she felt that it was her sincere words.

No one knows, the silence between her uttering that sentence and He Shen's answer felt to her that every second seemed like a year, and when he whispered the word "good", Feng Shuangzhi finally settled down.

She suppressed all her emotions, told Xitao to shut up, and then left.

At this moment, lying on the new bed, Feng Shuangzhi's mind was full of old things, and he fell asleep in a daze for a long time.

So a new day begins.

She temporarily buried this incident in her memory, sorted out all her feelings, and faced the new environment and new people.

The fact that Jiang Ning's political envoy and weaving Ying Lian took office still caused a great commotion, at least for those in the officialdom, it took a certain amount of effort to win over such a newcomer.

For Ying Lian who just lost his son, the most important thing is probably his granddaughter, so the busiest person is actually Feng Shuangzhi.

Ying Lian used to manage the river project in Jiangning before, and now that he is back in Jiangning, he is quite familiar with it. As for Feng Shuangzhi, he is in a completely new environment.

There were many officials' wives who invited her to drink today, to enjoy the flowers tomorrow, and to have a poetry meeting in two days, but Feng Shuangzhi declined them all, saying that it was the time of filial piety, and he didn't want to go out more. Others felt that Feng Shuangzhi might not be a very easy person to get along with, and also felt that Yinglian was controlling him, and if he didn't come out at this time, he didn't want to be wooed by them, so he took a break for a while.

The winter in the south of the Yangtze River is very cold and humid, but it is still warmer than that in the north. After this winter, Feng Shuangzhi started to go out.

Yangzhou with fireworks in March, the Grand Canal that runs across the north and south, the tank boats on the canal, the brokers traveling from south to north, and the tea, water, and people in the south of the Yangtze River.

It is a fat job for Jiangning's chief envoy to also weaving. The wives of the officials also voted for Feng Shuangzhi's liking. Don't blame it, after all, when the water is clear, there will be no fish, as long as the water is not enough, it will be fine.

It's just that this speed has always been in the hands of the emperor, and no one can tell when it will change.

In his spare time, Feng Shuangzhi was reciting poems and painting. Together with the ladies of the government in Jiangnan, the salt merchants in Yangzhou, and the female relatives of the water gangs in charge of the water transportation in nine provinces, how many people were by Feng Shuangzhi's side. With their own circle.

In the capital, Feng Shuangzhi, the granddaughter of a second-rank official, may not be considered anything, but after being sent out, this position has risen from the second-rank position, and Feng Shuangzhi's smooth, unscrupulous Offending people easily and being easy to get along with, he soon won the favor of a lot of officials' wives and ladies.

There are many officials in the south of the Yangtze River, and there are many officials in the south of the Yangtze River, and there are many romantic scholars in the south of the Yangtze River. It's not that Feng Shuangzhi, who is well-known for his talents, has never received gifts from bold and talented scholars, but he has never ignored them.

As time went by, some people said that Feng Shuangzhi was a high-minded person, and that one day anyone would be able to get her favor.

——Actually, they all forgot that Feng Shuangzhi still had to participate in the draft.

In the blink of an eye, more than three years later, in the autumn of the 29th year of Qianlong, Feng Shuangzhi was in the weaving mansion in Jiangning, presiding over a flower appreciation gathering, but heard a lady from the Suzhou magistrate's family say: "A few days ago, there was news that the Lord Long Live would The southern tour will be in the first month of next year, so it's a good time!"

Feng Shuangzhi was pouring the wine, and the wine glass in his hand stopped, but there was nothing strange about it, and he stuffed the wine glass into Miss Yang San's hand: "If I can't say the next sentence, this glass of Xingzihong will belong to you gone."

"Miss, you are really vicious, everyone knows that I am just a straw bag, an embroidered pillow, and you want me to be a pair, sisters, listen carefully, I will be a pair in a while, you all have to have a drink! "

Then Miss Yang San scanned the surroundings, and finally thought hard for a long time, but still couldn't come up with anything, and drank it honestly: "Only you people are elegant, ordinary people like me don't know what wind, flowers, and snow are. Moon..."

Feng Shuangzhi was joking with everyone, seeing that it was getting late, he sent people out one by one. After the banquet in the courtyard was over, Feng Shuangzhi went to greet Yinglian, so he mentioned Qianlong's southern tour.

Previously, Yinglian was reassigned, one was because of the status of the royal family, and the other was because he wanted to avoid sad things. After all, in the capital, he went to his daughter-in-law and died of his son. Now more than three years have passed, no matter how old he is The wind and rain are gone.

"Mafa has been away from the capital for a long time, it's time to go back." Feng Shuangzhi said very directly.

Now that she is older, she dares to say things that she didn't dare to say back then. After all, she is now an independent person, and the teachers she hires are all well-known talents. It was Yuan Mei who passed through Jiangsu when he traveled the world. , but also to take a special look at it, but it didn't take much credit for Feng Shuangzhi.

Feng Shuangzhi gradually revealed the brilliance of himself, so that no matter what he said now, Yinglian would not be surprised.

In fact, what Feng Shuangzhi said was exactly what Yinglian thought.

He put down what he was doing and only smiled: "Have you heard?"

"Long live Lord's southern tour is a good opportunity for Mafa." Over the years, the southern tour has rewarded a large number of officials, "Mafa has been far away from the capital for too long, although it is not easy to do things under the emperor's feet, it's just..."

It's just that they all know that the real power lies at the feet of the emperor.

Those who are officials outside, who knows if they will be tricked by others if they turn around?

The officialdom here in Jiangsu is too chaotic, especially because of the existence of the Grand Canal, there is a lot of money in the officialdom.The Cao Gang and the Salt Gang, the land of water transportation in nine provinces, also involved in river governance. Every year, the Jiangnan scientific examination fraud is the most serious. If you stay for a long time, there will always be accidents. It is better to go back under the eyes of the emperor. The opportunity to show up is relatively familiar, and it is the most suitable for Ying Lian who is getting old.

Ying Lian had an abacus in his mind to calculate these things, and he also felt that three years was about the same. If he could take advantage of Qianlong's southern tour to earn the credit, he would be transferred back to the capital almost in the blink of an eye.

Qianlong made a southern tour in 27 years, but at that time Yinglian felt that the time was not ripe, so he suppressed it.

But Feng Shuangzhi still has to be drafted at that time, and he still has to go to the original circle.

However, Qianlong's arrival also added a bit of worry to Feng Shuangzhi's heart.

Soon after, this worry was indeed fulfilled.

"You should have heard about Brother Six, right?" Ying Lian asked her.

Feng Shuangzhi thought for a while, then nodded and said: "Mr. Zheng is Sixth Brother's aide, and I only mentioned a few words about Sixth Master."

Originally, Zheng Shifang was the staff member of the sixth elder brother Yongrong, who was Qianlong's favorite elder brother, so he wanted to fight for the establishment of the reserve, but he didn't expect that Qianlong had already been adopted to Shen in the winter of 24 years. Jingjun Wang Yunxi is the heir and named Baylor.Zheng Shifang probably came to teach at the Yinglian Mansion at this time, and for a while afterward, they were all planning this matter, but the adoption incident came out, and there was no room for change after that, and finally nothing happened, Zheng Shifang took the An errand in Suzhou let go.

Qianlong had many sons, but most of them were short-lived.

The eldest brother, the second elder brother, and the third elder brother are no longer in this world; the fourth elder brother has been adopted by Yun Yu as his heir; the fifth elder brother Yong Qi is the most favored now; It is equivalent to missing the throne; as the eldest son, the seventh elder brother died at the age of two; the eighth elder brother Yongxuan is alive and well now, but he has heard that his conduct is not good, and he has never been very popular with Qianlong; the ninth elder brother and the tenth elder brother I went early; the eleventh brother was similar to the eighth brother, and was not loved by Qianlong because of parallel reasons; the twelfth elder brother was the current empress's son, and I heard that the holy family was growing; the thirteenth and fourteenth elder brothers died early——

At this time, the main event came.

The fifteenth elder brother Yongyan, born in 25, is the son of the current imperial concubine Wei Jiashi, and he is only four years old now.

If Feng Shuangzhi didn't even remember this person, he would be a traveler in vain.

Have you seen Huanzhu anyway?Concubine Ling is a very famous person. This woman failed to become a queen during her lifetime, but after her death, she was posthumously named a queen because her son became an emperor.

The fifteenth elder brother Yongyan will be the future Emperor Jiaqing.

As for the sixteenth son of the emperor, he is also the son of Concubine Ling, but he is too young to be named yet.

Feng Shuangzhi hasn't been eating, drinking and having fun these years. He knows more people and gossips more. He hears a little bit more or less, and accumulates a lot. He can quickly piece together a huge amount of information.

Ying Lian's return to Beijing must be due to the transfer of the entire court background. Every time he tours the south, there are certain personnel transfers.

Now that Qianlong is old, the princes have a lot of secret rivalries.

There are many abolished princes, and the only ones who can still participate in this kind of thing are the fifth elder brother Yongqi, the eighth elder brother Yongxuan, the eleventh elder brother Yongxuan, and the twelfth elder brother Yongxiu... As for Yongyan, he is too old now. Small, probably no one has noticed him yet.

"Mafa never asked about these things before, this time it's..." Feng Shuangzhi didn't know what Yinglian was up to.

But Ying Lian said: "Your filial piety is coming to an end, and the draft will be held in April next year, just after Shengshang's southern tour, so it's time for me to make some plans for you."

When he mentioned it, Feng Shuangzhi remembered that the draft meant that she was going back to the capital.

You can only get married if you fail in the three selections, and it's not like you didn't get thrown out for a marriage without getting a sign in the first draft, but Feng Shuangzhi's luck in his previous life was not very good, and he was forced to choose three times. I don't know if it is. The eunuch in charge had trouble with her, and she was forced to become an old lady.

"Nurse has been teaching in the mansion for a while, Shuangzhi is studying hard, Mafa doesn't have to worry too much, even..." Even if he is unlucky and enters the palace, there will be no way to deal with it.

Feng Shuangzhi was trying to reassure Yinglian, and Yinglian could hear it.

He sighed: "Recently, I received a letter from your husband, saying that another elder brother wants to recruit him as an aide. I reckon that the situation in the court is about to rise again, and I don't know whether it is right to go back at this time." It's a blessing or a curse, I just hope it doesn't implicate you."

Opportunities cannot be missed. Qianlong's southern tour only happened once every few years. If he didn't seize this opportunity and return to Beijing to report on his duties in the future, he would not have much chance to stand out.Only this time, the southern tour, the southern tour from January to April next year.

"Mafa don't worry, granddaughter knows the seriousness of the matter. It's getting late, don't disturb Mafa's rest, Shuangzhi will leave."

"Go, Feng Zhong has lighted the lamp for Miss."

Coming out of Ying Lian's place, Feng Shuangzhi went back to her room, Xitao saw her hurried footsteps, with a worried expression on her face, and became anxious again: "Miss, were you alright just now? Why didn't you just come out... ..."

Feng Shuangzhi said: "The Holy Majesty will make a tour to the south in the first month of next year. This Weaving Mansion will be renovated a lot as a residence. There are many craftsmen coming in and out today. Don't walk around at will, lest you bump into others."

"Yes. But...Miss Yang San invited her to go on a lake tour the day before yesterday. The boats are all ready, miss, are you still going?"

"I must be going, why did you suddenly ask about this?" Feng Shuangzhi sat down and took the tea served by Mei Xiang. The poem was sensible three years ago, but Feng Shuangzhi didn't like it very much. She, who later found out that she wanted to serve Ying Lian, simply threw her away, but she was sold away within two years, perhaps because she made a mistake while serving Ying Lian.

"Didn't it be said that the salt gang on the lake capsized many boats a few days ago? The girl from Mr. Zhang's family fell into the water and was picked up by a man. As a result... I heard that she was beaten to death when she returned, but it was said that she died of illness... ..." Xitao said cautiously, and only after arriving in Jiangning did she realize that the world is not stable. There are many salt merchants in the Jiangnan area, especially in Yangzhou. Where is the salt merchant not famous?

These salt merchants have money in their hands, their families are rich, and their food and clothing are much better than those of the officials. The whole officialdom is also full of money.

Feng Shuangzhi didn't dare to ask Yinglian what was so great about it, she was afraid that if she really asked something, it would be a big trouble.

It's not that Feng Shuangzhi didn't understand what Xitao said, which caused a lot of uproar in the city before. It's just that, without saying a word, she felt that Miss Zhang's family had been wronged in her heart.

She thought about the matter between herself and Heshen, and suddenly aroused all kinds of emotions in her heart, so she let Xitao go first and went back to the house by herself.

In the past two years, I haven't heard much about He Shen, except that Yuan Mei traveled around the world, walking between the capital and various places, and would accidentally know a thing or two when he came to see Feng Shuangzhi, and it was during the correspondence with Xizhu bingo.

Now Xizhu has also reached the age of marriage, and next year will be drafted together with Feng Shuangzhi.

She knew that Feng Shuangzhi was coming back, so she often wrote to tell her how many young talents there were in the capital, which family's son, which family's young master, could say anything.

As a leader in the Xian'an Academy, He Shen is naturally on the list, but Feng Shuangzhi can feel it when he read Xi Zhu's letter. Xi Zhu looked down on He Shen, and he mentioned it only in a few words.

Xi Zhu wrote a letter about the things in the capital, but it was just so that Feng Shuangzhi would not be completely blinded when he came back.

Feng Shuangzhi was grateful for her kindness, and had already regarded Xizhu as a confidant, but she never said a word about He Shen.After all, such a matter involves too much...

So until now, Xi Zhu still thinks that Feng Shuangzhi and Fu Kang'an are a couple, and every time she writes a letter, she always talks about Fu Kang'an.

If Feng Shuangzhi hadn't taken out the fan to look at it from time to time, he might have been brainwashed by Xi Zhu.

Fukang'an is good here, and there is good. After entering the Xian'an Academy, he quickly became friends with He Shen. Fukang'an was praised by his master for writing poems. Fukang'an went to autumn hunting with Lord Qianlong. Good luck...

The paper is full of Fukang'an, the power of brainwashing is very powerful, especially after three years of daily washing.

——Feng Shuangzhi was surprised that he hadn't changed his mind yet.

However, she began to worry about whether He Shen had changed his mind.

The first month of the 30th year of Qianlong finally came.

The empress dowager, accompanied by the empress Ulanara, brought several elder brothers, among which the younger elder brother Yongyan from the imperial concubine was impressively listed, and at the same time brought Fukang'an. When hearing this name, Feng Shuangzhi felt his eyelids twitch, and always felt that something bad was about to happen.

Departed from the capital on the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, arrived in Suzhou on the first day of the second lunar month, watched the Qiantang tide at the end of February, and took the empress dowager to stay in Jiangning Mansion in March.

So he was extra kind, and Jiangning weaved Yinglian, took over the emperor's car, and welcomed Qianlong to live in the palace.

It's just that this was originally a great favor, but it would be great if Feng Shuangzhi didn't meet Fu Kang'an, or in other words, didn't hear about what happened on the eighteenth day of the leap month.

Empress Wulanara is the successor of the empress. The first empress Fucha died, and Wulanara gradually came to power and was named empress. She shaved her hair directly, and was later sent back to the capital in advance by Qianlong, so she probably fell out of favor.

The twelfth elder brother Yongxi knelt for a long time in front of the holy car and begged for mercy, but was reprimanded and thrown out with a tea bowl. When the holy car fell into the palace, he fell out of favor.

The situation between North Korea and China suddenly became dark and turbulent.

Feng Shuangzhi had a general understanding of these things, but he was not very clear after all.

People often say that the authorities are confused, but the bystanders are clear, but the bystanders who don't know the direction of the development of things can't even see clearly.

In the evening of that day, she passed by the corridor at the back of Baosha. This is not within the scope of the palace, so no outsiders came in. Feng Shuangzhi was more casual. She cut flowers to put in vases, but she didn't expect that the flowers inside Someone was talking in the room, it was the voice of two men, the wooden window was half closed, and Feng Shuangzhi passed in front.

"Go and investigate clearly. Brother Twelve will never say, go and find out who the queen has contacted before... No matter what, I want to know..."

"Third Master, the queen has fallen out of favor now, this..."

"If you want to investigate, you can investigate. If you don't want to do this job, hand over your head before leaving!"

"The third master spares my life, the slave is momentarily confused, the third master spares my life!"

Then it seemed that someone kicked up and pushed it inside, and someone fell to the ground.

The man said again: "Don't tell me about this, Ah Ma, if he knows half a word, you won't be able to keep your tongue. Get lost!"

Feng Shuangzhi was just passing by, and he never expected to hear such a conversation. It seemed to be related to the fall of favor of the eighteenth queen of the leap month. Feng Shuangzhi subconsciously wanted to hide when he heard it, but the window was Concealed, she hid by the window, with her back against the wall, and only dared to come out quietly from the shadow in the wall when she heard that there was no movement inside.

Unexpectedly, the moment she took a step, a palm grabbed Feng Shuangzhi's neck and pressed her hard against the wall. The palm was a man's palm with long and strong fingers, but The palm seems a little rough, probably due to years of martial arts practice, so it left marks.

This hand was so strong that Feng Shuangzhi instantly felt as if something was stuck in his throat.

She struggled, but raised her eyes and looked at the person in front of her.

Wearing an ordinary hat, tall and tall, but I can't see what he looks like. The other party is against the light, so I can only vaguely see some outlines. Feng Shuangzhi thought that this is a sudden disaster, and he will die without knowing it. Don't you understand?

Just when she felt hopeless, the man's hand loosened. Feng Shuangzhi immediately wanted to escape, but she didn't think that even so, she still couldn't escape from the man's hand.

Then, I heard a deep voice: "You are... Miss Feng Er?"

Someone finally recognized her, no—fortunately, this person knew her.

Feng Shuangzhi nodded hurriedly, thinking that he was really unlucky, and was almost killed in his own house.

This place is not in the category of a palace at all, it feels like she lived next door to a bandit, did not steal or rob, one day the bandit came to her house for dinner, thought she was a bandit, and cut off her head with a knife.

The man's icy palm seemed to hesitate for a moment, but finally took it away from her neck.

Feng Shuang wept from the pain, touched her neck, panted with her back against the wall, the man was still standing in front of her and did not leave.

Feng Shuangzhi only felt that this person was strange, but the other person stood in front of her, feeling an indescribably dangerous feeling, she did not speak for a while, and did not dare to leave directly.

The person in front of him, even though he couldn't see the outline clearly, was cold and gloomy.

"So you don't recognize me anymore." The man laughed softly.

Feng Shuangzhi only thinks that he is sick, who are you, why should he recognize you?

It's just that as soon as this thought flashed, Feng Shuangzhi saw the man turn half of his body from the darkness, and the face was exposed, with outlines, brows and eyes, vaguely familiar.

The conversation between the two people I just heard flashed across my mind like lightning, the third master - Fukang'an!

In the capital, the default titles of the third son and the third master belonged to Fukang'an. The third elder brother had already died, so no one would not carelessly mention it.

Just now... She really didn't associate that cold voice with Fu Kang'an at all.

Now Fukang'an seems to be a lot taller, at least taller than Feng Shuangzhi, and he can't tell that he is the little kid from back then. It's just that he hasn't seen him for more than four years. The change seems to be great.

The appearance is second, but the temperament of this body seems to have turned around.

Seeing Feng Shuangzhi was stunned, Fu Kang'an actually laughed at himself: "I have remembered you Miss Feng Er for many years, but you don't remember me. It was a waste of me giving so many things to Sister Xizhu, and entrusting her to give it to you." You mentioned me more in your letter, but... I meant it, but you didn't."

How did that kid become like this back then?

Feng Shuangzhi just felt really powerless for a while, "Third Master has changed too much, I didn't react for a while, please forgive me."

Back then, Fukang'an looked like a simple child, even if there was some scheming inside, it would not be like the one I met today, making people feel cold and scared.

"Even you said that."

Fukangan suddenly laughed, turned around and stood in the bright place, "Why are you here?"

Feng Shuangzhi breathed a sigh of relief, and finally recovered, "It happened that there were some flowers blooming in the garden, so I came over to put a vase, I didn't expect—"

"How much did you hear?" Fukang'an turned back and asked him, his voice was calm and he couldn't hear anything.

Feng Shuangzhi said calmly: "I said that I didn't hear anything, or didn't understand anything, does the third master believe it?"

"..." Fukang'an was silent.

Feng Shuangzhi stood up straight, returning to his usual dignified and elegant appearance, bowed his knees and said, "It's getting late, third master should rest earlier, Shuangzhi will leave."

She turned around, but was grabbed by Fu Kang'an, "I believe it."

Feng Shuangzhi was shocked and angry, but he didn't dare to shout loudly, so he lowered his voice and said coldly, "Let go!"

Fukang'an's eyes suddenly became cold and stern. He thought of the many words he had heard these days, and wanted to let go, but after all, he was unwilling to let go. He pursed his lips, looked at her, and suddenly whispered: "This year you
