[Red Mansions] The prince is polite

Xiao Liu, who was delayed by the second girl Zhong, did not go back, but turned halfway to the embankment where the fourth brother would stay today.There are stretches of pergolas set up on the edge of the river embankment now, Xiao Liu wandered around for a long time but didn't see the fourth brother, until a government official came running over.

In a few words, I realized that the eldest brother and the governor of Hedao had just arrived and were looking for details in the government office, so they also invited the fourth brother over.Xiao Liu thought about it for a while, no wonder when he went to the government office before, he always felt that the atmosphere inside had changed from the general atmosphere in the past, as if facing a big enemy, it turned out that the immediate boss and the big brother with real power came, so it was no wonder that the river workers were re-arranged to start work.

Xiao Liu laughed at himself, thinking that the fourth brother must know about Xin'er, so he ordered the bearers to go back home, ignored Shi Shuan's jokes, and fell asleep with his head covered when he returned to his room, from midday to sunset. Did not see call.

When the fourth master came back with his elder brother, after listening to Shi Shuan's careful narration, his eyes were a little stern, and he waved his fingers silently to make him back off.

After the elder brother was stopped by the guards in the mansion at the gate of the sixth courtyard, he was not angry. Instead, he patted the guards on the shoulder, turned around and walked to the fourth brother who had just whispered a few words to the servant, and said with a smile:

"Your guards are very good, and you should be rewarded in return. I also heard that because of them, oh, there is someone named Xue who stopped Xiao Liu in the house for a month. According to Xiao Liu's temperament , they are amazing."

"It's because I was a bit tougher, which made the sixth brother still not say anything to me. Just now, the servant who served Xiao Liu came to tell me that he didn't eat lunch, and he slept sullenly and hasn't woken up until now."

"It's okay, just be careful. It's windy and rainy outside. If Xiao Liu has something bad or bad, you can't escape the blame. His temper is not long, and he will be fine in a while."

Fourth Master squeezed out a wry smile, called Shi Shuan again, and ordered, "Uncle and I are resting in the flower hall. If Xiao Liu wakes up, lead him over."

After that, he went to have a drink with the elder brother and talked about trivial matters, but after a short while, the two pots of wine were down, and while the fourth master was drinking and his face was hot, he took his arm and asked for his opinion.

Fourth master narrowed his eyes slightly, stroked his forehead, and slowly lay down on his side, as if thinking for a while, speaking very slowly,

"Huang Ama's thoughts are hard to guess. Ge Erdan has become more and more restless in the past few years. The matter of food and grass is not only related to internal and external troubles. We are all siblings, so we didn't investigate deeply. I checked the officials, but I can't guarantee whether Huang Ama knows what's right, so you and the second brother should stop interfering in this matter, and just avoid suspicion."

The elder brother drank a glass of wine abruptly, and with reddish eyes, he drank sharply,

"Fourth brother, you are the only one who can say such a thing. Now, the brothers, except for Xiao Qi who is weak-hearted, who doesn't care about right and wrong, and is wise and protects himself, the rest are acting fiercely underneath.

Now that the eighth brother has united with the ninth and tenth brothers, he is becoming more and more prominent in front of Huang Ama, and Huang Ama even agreed to his marriage with the Guo Luoluo family.I don't see any surprise that his ambition will grow bigger and bigger as his wings are full.

The second younger brother became more and more outrageous, relying on Huang Ama's favor, he did not do much business, and searched for treasures everywhere.For these things, even the business of selling officials and nobles has been done. "

The fourth master sighed, "Second brother is the crown prince, and he will understand in a few years. The reason I did things for him and covered up the absurd things was because I didn't want him to disappoint Huang Ama again. As for the eighth brother, you don't have any I can't control the law, I just hope he can leave room for things and don't involve the sixth brother.

The sixth brother doesn't like these things. In fact, he annoys me and those officials. I really don't like to see their faces.I only hope that in the future, I can have a Zhuangzi, weeding and farming, talking sweet, watching the stars, tasting wine and enjoying family relationships. "

The elder brother sneered, "Just think about this kind of thing. You are conscientious, reliable, determined, and don't hide your secrets. Not only is Huang Ama pointing at you to do things for him, but even the second brother is relying on you." .”

Fourth master knew what big elder brother was hiding in his heart, and didn't want to arouse his vigilance. He looked down at the wine glass pinched between his fingers, and said in a low voice,

"Brother, I don't care about that. If Huang Ama hadn't been afraid that I would be too hard-tempered and do things too carelessly, she would fall here and give me all the soldiers under Ma Zongbing. I don't know if I can still talk to you. I'm afraid Xiaoliu will also be affected by my drastic actions, how can Huang Ama think about it."

The elder brother laughed, raised his wine glass and touched it with the fourth younger brother, "Okay, look at your listless appearance, don't mention these things. By the way, I heard that you will be a young man in Beijing. The old man got it here, what kind of plum blossom cakes do you specialize in? Let me also see how delicious it is, and let the sixth brother come here with you to do business, and I will never forget it."

After the fourth master groaned, Nian Gengyao was replaced by Nian Gengyao, who gave a few orders in a low voice, and finally asked, "It's already this hour, and the sixth master hasn't woken up yet?"

Nian Gengyao looked at the elder brother in embarrassment. He was hesitating for a while, and the frowning fourth master was impatient. He picked up his robe and walked quickly to Xiaoliu's yard. Nian Gengyao Yao hurriedly followed.

After the elder brother was stunned for a while, he also followed closely, wondering if something had happened to the sixth brother.

The farther you go into his courtyard, the cleaner it is, but there are more and more people guarding nearby. When you open the door and enter, you can see the stone bolt shaking into a sieve and a pretty-looking maid, one kneeling in the room, One knelt outside the house.

The little servant girl's clothes were very disheveled, she crouched in a ball, and even her crying was suppressed extremely low. If it wasn't for the terrible silence in the courtyard, and she was kneeling at the front, she wouldn't have paid attention to her.

And Xiaoliu, who only wore a moon white inner shirt and loosely braided hair, stood barefoot on the blanket inside the door, looking at the stone bolt kneeling outside the door with a cold face, in his originally clear eyes, there was a dark mountain rain want to come.

The rest of the guards all lowered their heads, standing neither close nor far away, able to ignore indecent assault, and able to do things as quickly as possible.

Shishuan, who was under the pressure of his master, couldn't bear it any longer and kept begging for mercy. He really couldn't figure out why his master, who was usually the most talkative and the best at handling, didn't want a woman to come to his door. Normally, at this age, he was the most Curious, the most tossing, the most willing to refuse, if you are infatuated, you will not let go.

In the future, if you open a yamen and build a mansion, even if you are just a bed warmer and have no status, you will be older and more feared than the new entrants.Besides, the straw grows a first-class water spirit. Even without herself, she can still be a concubine of a rich family, but the thought of her can make her rise up, and she will no longer be called by that brat Nian Gengyao. It is also a good thing to drink.

It's just that he didn't expect that he would really anger the master who had never shown a cool look.

Fourth master and the elder brother who came after him knew what was going on at a glance, their faces were dark and terrifying.
