[Qing Chuan] Yongzheng's embarrassing empress

Chun'er made a big bowl of mung bean paste, which was mixed with rose water and angelica powder.

Shuwan and Da Gege were sitting on the couch, and the four Gege in the backyard were sitting on chairs. Everyone's little faces were green, and everyone was applying a mung bean mask.

Big Ge raised his head and lifted up the big towel on his chest.

Shuwan wiped the gooeyness from the corners of her eyes with her fingers, and asked casually, "Big Gege, how is the business of the toy store?"

Da Gege sighed softly, "I didn't lose money, but I didn't make money either."

After a pause, Da Gege said sullenly: "I thought it was too simple. I thought I had a good idea, and I could make money by opening a shop. I didn't expect that it would be very difficult to guarantee not to lose money."

Wu Gege watched Da Gege grow up, and it hurts to see Da Gege's dejected look.

"Don't worry, Big Ge, you can't become fat if you eat one bite. You have just started your business. When you slowly accumulate experience, your business will be fine."

Shuwan agreed with Wu Gege's words, "That's exactly what I said, you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, don't be discouraged, you have never done business before, it's the first time you do business, it's great if you don't lose money."

Shuwan sighed, "This year is really not a good time to do business. If you can do a good job in promoting it, you can make more money. But it's a mess outside, and I dare not let you out of the house."

Song Gege asked: "Fu Jin, when did you say it will be peaceful?"

Song Gege didn't understand why the capital was in such a mess when the crown prince fell.

Shuwan couldn't answer Song Gege's question, she could only perfunctory a few sentences.

"Let's just stay in the mansion as before, and the chaos outside will not affect us."

It's almost time for the mask, so Shuwan and the others wash their faces together.

Shuwan had just splashed the water a few times, and the mung bean powder on her temples and nose hadn't been washed, when Su Peisheng broke in suddenly.

Chun'er scolded: "Eunuch Su! You are confused! How dare you break into Fujin here?"

Su Peisheng stomped his feet anxiously, "The lord is back, there's a cut on his hand!"

Hearing the news, Shuwan didn't bother to wipe her face, and rushed out in a panic with a towel still wrapped around her chest.

Fujin ran away, and the others quickly followed.

Shuwan quickly ran to the second gate, and saw the fourth elder brother head-on.She rushed to meet him and grabbed his arm.

Shuwan asked nervously: "How are you? Is your hand hurt? Show me!"

All the servants around looked at him, and the fourth elder brother was a little embarrassed.

"The wound doesn't matter, let's go back and talk."

Back in the main courtyard, Song Gege and others expressed their concern, and then returned to their small courtyard very tactfully.

Shuwan helped the fourth elder brother to sit down, staring at the gauze wrapped around the fourth elder brother's hand.

"How did you do it? After entering the palace, why are you still injured?" Shuwan scolded the servants for being ignorant, "You are injured, and the people below don't know how to prepare a sedan chair to carry you back. It's cold, how can you still be injured?" Hurt, just walk back like this!"

The fourth elder brother smiled and said: "The carriage I took back from the palace, when I get to the front, it is not far from the main courtyard, and it is only two steps away, no sedan chair is needed."

Shuwan held the fourth elder brother's hand, frowning tightly, "Hmph! There is no need for a sedan chair! It's just that the slaves are lazy!"

The fourth elder brother touched Shuwan's face, "It's so cold! What's on your forehead and nose?"

Shuwan raised her hand to wipe it, looked at the mung bean noodles on her fingertips, and blushed a little, "Just now I applied Song Gege and the others to my face, this is something for my face, I'm going to wash it off."

Shuwan asked Chun'er to scoop up water, and Chun'er mixed the warm water to claim credit for her master.

"Fu Jin heard that the prince was injured, so he couldn't care about anything at that time, and there were drops of water on his face! He just ran out like that, and we couldn't even catch up."

Shuwan scolded while washing her face: "You talk too much, I will sew your mouth shut tomorrow!"

Shuwan was so nervous about herself, the fourth elder brother was very satisfied.

He walked over and stood beside Shuwan watching her wash her face.

"Don't do this next time. It's cold outside, and if you don't wipe off the water on your face, you will get sores. It won't be pretty."

Shuwan sneered, "Next time? This time you get hurt, I'm enough to worry about it, and next time, my heart will jump out."

The fourth elder brother smiled helplessly, "Today was an accident..."

Shuwan finished washing her face, wiped off the water droplets on her face, and then helped Si elder brother to sit down.She helped the fourth elder brother take off the big outer clothes, and found a pillow for the fourth elder brother to lean on.

The fourth elder brother sighed comfortably, "Oh, today is a disaster. When I stopped Huang Ama, I didn't grab his hand, and I accidentally got cut by a knife."

Shuwan took a can of face cream, casually rubbed the paste on her face twice. "The emperor called you into the palace for some important business, right? Why are you using your swords and guns again?"

The fourth elder brother sighed again, and told the story of what happened today.

After hearing this, Shuwan became furious, "I mean! You have always been cautious, but you just entered the palace, how did you get injured? It turns out that the fourteenth elder brother was involved!"

In the past, the fourteenth elder brother was still young, and Shuwan felt that he was just a little mischievous, and thought that this little uncle was okay.Now that the fourteenth elder brother has grown up, how come the more he lives, the more he goes back?It's getting more and more annoying!

Shuwan's anger was directed at Fourteenth Elder Brother, and the emperor called people to inquire about the candidate for the crown prince. Shuwan didn't take this important matter related to the community into consideration at all.

In her eyes, the prince is far less important than the wound on the fourth elder brother's hand.

Shuwan thought for a while and said: "No way! I have to pass the sign and enter the palace, and make a fuss with Brother Fourteen!"

The fourth elder brother stopped Shuwan, not allowing her to go.

"Forget it, I'm already injured. If you go to the palace to make a fuss, my injury won't heal. You go to make a fuss, and you feel happy. The people in the palace should arrange for you to be arrogant.

Look at Ba Fujin, who has been placed under house arrest, but the emperor reprimanded her when he thought of it, saying that she was unruly, and that elder brother Ba was under the control of his wife. "

Shuwan refused to listen to the persuasion, "You are all hurt, what do I want to be famous for? Don't blame me for speaking harshly, your own brother knows how to deal with trouble. For him, the words of the eighth and the ninth are more useful than the imperial decree." !"

Hearing that Shuwan made arrangements for her younger brother, the fourth elder brother was not annoyed.He and the fourteenth elder brother were born at odds. Although they lived together in the palace when they were young, they didn't have much interaction with each other, and the fourth elder brother didn't have much affection for this younger brother.

Although there is no brotherhood towards the fourteenth elder brother, the fourth elder brother can't let Shuwan enter the palace to make trouble.

He thought about it, and persuaded Shuwan from another angle.

"Among the princes who have been entrusted out of the palace, I am considered top-notch now. The eldest brother and the eighth brother will probably stay in the mansion for the rest of their lives. The third brother is older than me, but his title is not as high as mine. The rest of the princes are all It's my younger brother, they don't have such a high title as me, and they don't have my connections.

I stood on the cusp of the storm, and many ministers in the court vaguely approached me.Now my every move is watched by someone, you and I are one, and your words and deeds also represent my wishes.

If I just want to be an idle prince, and you make trouble casually, let's do whatever we want!But I have other thoughts in my heart, so I can only wrong you and bear it for me. "

Shuwan sighed, and said sullenly: "Forget it, just listen to you! I don't want to hold you back!"

The fourth elder brother smiled and waved to Shuwan, letting her lean in his arms.

Shuwan sighed: "Be quiet! Be careful not to touch your hands!"

"Small injury, it doesn't matter!" The fourth elder brother smiled, "I know you are doing it for my own good, and I appreciate it."

Shuwan glared at him, "Who wants you to appreciate it? You may not be grateful to you for helping the fourteenth elder brother block the knife today. He just owes a lesson and won't be beaten a few times. Someone wipe his ass!"

The fourth elder brother smiled and shook his head, "If you say that, you are underestimating the fourteenth. The fourteenth gangs up with the eighth, so it may not be that you like the eighth.

A few years ago, he came to the house to make trouble. At that time, he was young and energetic, and he was really confused by the humble and generous appearance of the old man.He has lived in the palace these few years, the emperor would rather take his younger elder brother with him than to take him with him when he travels.He has been neglected for several years, and it is time for him to improve.

Although Lao Ba is locked up now, he still has the support of Lao Jiu and Lao Shi.In addition, most of the officials in the DPRK and China supported Lao Ba, and even Tong Guowei ignored Lao Ba's charges and openly supported Lao Ba as the prince, which shows Lao Ba's rich connections.

The old fourteen is also more optimistic about the old eight, so he wants to stick to it and fight for a position next to the old eight.It would be even better if he could poach the old eight's corner! "

Shuwan said: "Unexpectedly, your brother is quite scheming."

The fourth elder brother laughed at himself, "Which one of the princes in the palace has no scheming? The old fourteen is fighting for his own future. I don't blame him, after all, I have my own little thoughts.

My fifth brother and I rescued him today, he is so kind and righteous, the emperor must like it.We should show weakness now, I will recuperate my injury at home for a few days.If you should enter the palace to pay your respects, please pay your respects, and don't mention anything bad about Old Fourteen.We are so wronged and endured, the emperor and Er Niang would like it more. "

Shuwan understood that the fourth elder brother wanted her to make green tea.

also!Although making green tea is not as refreshing as being a shrew, but for Si Age's acting career, she will be a green tea white lotus who understands righteousness once.

"Okay! I'll listen to you!"

After talking about the fourteenth elder brother, Shuwan finally has the heart to understand the important affairs of the country.

"The emperor asked everyone to recommend a candidate for the crown prince, so is he going to appoint a new crown prince soon? How many chances do you have if you are so reluctant?"

The fourth elder brother held up his gauze-wrapped hand, "You! Naive! Is this a grievance? To the emperor, there are so many people fighting for him, so what am I?"

The fourth elder brother sighed: "The emperor really wants to appoint a new prince as soon as possible to stabilize the court, but...it's difficult! In the past, the emperor tried his best to suppress the prince and lead the prince to the right path. He never considered other princes.

After the prince was abolished, the emperor began to observe the princes, and I just entered the emperor's sight.Now the emperor just doesn't hate me, so he doesn't dare to use me yet. "

Shuwan persuaded: "Let's not worry, the current position of the prince is a target, whoever becomes the new prince will have a hard time."

The fourth elder brother explained: "For the emperor and for us, the establishment of a prince is a dangerous situation, and it is a difficult situation.

The emperor wants a good prince who is gentle and martial arts, but the prince is strong, has achievements and virtues, and can win over the ministers of the court.The emperor would be afraid of such a prince.

If everything depends on the emperor, the emperor will feel that such a prince is weak and incompetent, unbearable to be the king of a country.This speed is difficult to control, the emperor is not easy to control, and I don't know how to do it well. "

Shuwan nodded, "It's really difficult! But now we have a negative example. When you don't know what to do, just look at the next door. That Ba Ye is too arrogant! Ministers all praise Ba Ge, who Knowing the kindness of the emperor? Did he think that the emperor would make him the crown prince because of the persecution of his officials?

Hmph, the emperor is not a fool, how could he be coerced?Just wait and see!It's not something that can be accomplished with a large number of people, the harder he pushes, the more the emperor hates him! "

The fourth elder brother nodded with a smile, "It's still Fujin who has insight, after listening to your words, I'm so enlightened!"

The fourth elder brother's words made Shuwan very happy, she smiled and kissed the fourth elder brother's forehead.

"I'm so smart, I'll show you next time! I'll go to the kitchen and ask them to cook some medicinal food for you, and some blood-enriching soup. You bleed, so you must make up for it!"

Shuwan got up and went to the kitchen. After she left, the smile on the fourth elder brother's face faded.

He was afraid that Shuwan would be worried, so he always looked very relaxed in front of her.In fact, the fourth elder brother is like walking a tightrope now, for fear of taking a wrong step and falling into the abyss.

The fourth elder brother was recuperating at home, the emperor rewarded a lot of medicinal materials, and appointed an imperial doctor to go to the fourth elder brother's mansion every day to change the medicine.

When the imperial physician removed the gauze, Shuwan saw the hideous wound on Si elder brother's palm, and felt so uncomfortable that she wanted to cry.

She thought it was just scratching the oily skin, but she didn't expect the wound to be so deep that the skin was ripped open.

Thinking of the culprit, Shuwan's teeth itch with hatred.

After the imperial physician left, Shuwan said distressedly: "If the imperial physician hadn't come to change the dressing, I wouldn't have known the wound was so deep! I should have opened the gauze yesterday!"

The fourth elder brother smiled and said: "My flesh is all glued to the gauze, look at the wound and remove the gauze from my flesh, won't this make me suffer again?"

Shuwan rolled his eyes at him, "You are always very reasonable, I won't tell you anymore, I'll go to Wu Fujin's house for a while."

The fourth elder brother refused, "A while ago I was so busy that I hit the back of my head with my feet, now I'm free, aren't you at home to accompany me?"

Shuwan said coldly: "Be good, I have something to do! I'm going to mess up Brother Jiu's business. You stay at home and play with Guaibao, so don't delay my business."

After speaking, Shuwan left the fourth elder brother and left. The fourth elder brother hesitated to speak, and finally sighed, and went to Guaibao's room to watch his son sleep.

Shuwan changed her clothes and went to Wu Fujin's place in a carriage, and Wu Fujin went to the second gate to greet her in person.

"What kind of wind brought you here?"

Shuwan smiled and said, "Of course it's the wind of getting rich!"

Wu Fujin thought about it, and welcomed Shuwan to the main hall, and asked the maid to guard the door.

Shuwan took off her cloak, and sat opposite Wu Fujin holding the stove.

"What's the matter? When I came here before, we were all discussing matters in the main courtyard. Why are you so solemn today?"

Wu Fujin sighed: "I can't go to my yard! Fifth elder brother is hanging around in my yard!"

Shuwan smiled, "He's really clingy! I don't know if Wu Fujin has changed his mind?"

Wu Fujin's eyes dodged a little, "Let's talk!"

Shuwan bowed her head to drink tea. She respected her friend's privacy and would not ask the bottom line.Just as she was about to change the subject, she heard Wu Fujin complain.

"He is so annoying! He has a thick skin. I scolded him, but he didn't get angry. He just lived in my yard with confidence. My main house used to be so clean! When he came, he piled up his things all over the place. Yes, they robbed my bed and quilt!"

Shuwan pursed her lips and snickered, "Since Fifth Brother is not good, why don't you kick him out!"

"I wanted to kick him out, but now he's injured and can't get him out!"

Shuwan was extremely surprised, "Injured? How did you get hurt?"

Wu Fujin said in a low voice: "Sister-in-law should know that the emperor wanted to chop off the fourteenth elder brother, and the fifth elder brother stopped the emperor by hugging the emperor's leg."

Shuwan thought about it for a while, the fourth elder brother didn't tell her that the fifth elder brother was injured!

"I know about this, our fourth elder brother was also injured."

Wu Fujin said apologetically: "I should have gone to see fourth brother, but it's not nice to say that the emperor wants to cut off his son, we have to keep it a secret, and it's not easy to come to the door."

Shuwan said angrily: "You are too polite! He is just a little skin trauma, there is no serious problem, no need to visit. But your fifth elder brother, how did he get hurt? Why haven't I heard of it?"

Wu Fujin's face was a little red, "He...he didn't step on the carriage properly when he got out of the palace, slipped and sprained his foot."

Shuwan: Just say no!The matter of the emperor beheading the fourteenth elder brother is just mentioned. Could it be that the story of the fifth elder brother's foot will be more colorful if the ins and outs are told in this way?

Shuwan sighed: "Twisting your feet is not a trivial matter, you have to take good care of them!"

"Who says it's not! Just because of this, it's not convenient for me to drive him away."

The fifth elder brother changed his mind, Shuwan saw that Wu Fujin looked cold and hard, but in fact his heart had already softened, and it was only a matter of time before the couple reconciled.

After all, they are two people who have lived together under the same roof for a long time. If they can reconcile, Shuwan also instructed them.

Before the fourteenth elder brother angered the emperor, the ninth elder brother winked at the fourteenth elder brother and deliberately encouraged him.The fourth elder brother could see clearly from the side of the emperor.

Shuwan couldn't talk to the fourteenth elder brother, and she felt suffocated again, so she thought of the mastermind behind the scenes, the ninth elder brother, and wanted to vent her anger on him.

Originally, she planned to contact Wu Fujin to steal Brother Jiu's business together, but now that Fujin and Brother Wu have reconciled, and Brother Wu and Brother Jiu are brothers, it is not suitable for her to cooperate with Wu Fujin.

Wu Fujin asked: "Sister-in-law, you came here suddenly and said that there is a wind of getting rich today, is there any good business?"

Shuwan hid her original thoughts and found an excuse.

"Hey, how can I get rich? Your fourth brother's hands are torn apart. I feel uncomfortable looking at them, so I come out to take a break."

Wu Fujin sighed: "In theory, there are some things I shouldn't have said, but Elder Fourteen is really too much. He is such a big man, he can't do things well, he made the emperor very angry, he can't coax him well, And hurt others!"

Shuwan: "It's still the fifth elder brother who is kind and generous. At that time, he rushed over and knelt down and hugged the emperor's leg."

Wu Fujin laughed and said, "He's not clear in the backyard, but he's fine outside. If he doesn't even have the advantage of benevolence, then he's really useless."

Shuwan smiled, but Wu Fujin was stubborn.

Wu Fujin took a sip of tea, "Sister-in-law, it's a coincidence that you came today. You don't have the idea of ​​getting rich, but I have one!"

"What idea to get rich? Let me hear it?"

Wu Fujin smiled and said: "I heard that the emperor not only scolded the fourteenth elder brother, but also the ninth and tenth elder brothers. Now the ninth and tenth elder brothers are also locked up in the mansion, we can take this opportunity Stealing Brother Nine's business!"

Shuwan said in her heart: I want to too!But……

"Fifth elder brother and ninth elder brother are brothers, you poached the business of other brothers, fifth elder brother can't blame you?"

Wu Fujin sneered, "Who cares about him? He wouldn't think that after neglecting me for so many years, when we first got married, he was insulting and scolding, but now he coaxes me casually, and my anger can be relieved? Be his elder brother Meng! I don't need to reconcile with him, but I can't let the money in front of me go unearned!"

Wu Fujin's temperament is very different from when she first entered the palace. She manages the business of Ningzhuang Pavilion, fights in the mall, and has long cultivated a heart of stone.

Shuwan still hesitated, "Fifth elder brother is your husband after all, it's not good for you to steal the business of Jiu elder brother without telling him like this. You have a good relationship with Jiu Fujin, how will you talk when you meet Jiu Fujin? "

Wu Fujin smiled and said, "Sister-in-law and Jiu Fujin are also on good terms. If you're not afraid, I'm not afraid either!"

"I'm different. The ninth elder brother instigated the fourteenth elder brother. He was the first to be unkind. Our fourth elder brother will definitely have scars on his hands! It's good if I didn't call the door! I have a little reason You know me too, as long as I hold on to the truth, I'm not afraid of anyone!"

Wu Fujin thought for a while and said, "We're all on good terms with Jiu Fujin, then... let's bring Jiu Fujin into the group too!"

Shuwan: "Huh?"

I suspect you are daydreaming!She actually encouraged Jiufujin to poach her husband's corner!

Wu Fujin smiled and said, "Jiu Prince's business shop is big, unlike ours. These years, he only relies on Ningzhuang Pavilion to make money. Grain, spices, timber, these businesses are all done by Jiu Prince! He mainly relies on Ba Ah for his business. Brother helped him connect, and relying on Brother Ba's connections, he was unimpeded in all parts of the country.

With just you and me, this wall corner is not easy to dig. In the end, it will be good if we can dig more than half of it. Adding another Jiufujin will give us an extra helper.

Jiufujin also often comes to chat with me, do you think she is willing to let Brother Jiu hang out with Brother Ba?It's just that she is virtuous and can't control the affairs of men outside.I think, if the two of us try to persuade her, she will probably be happy. "

The money earned from doing business is in the hands of Brother Jiu, and it is given to Brother Eight for nothing. If it is held in Jiu Fujin's own hands, Brother Jiu will not be able to touch the money.

Shuwan was shocked by Wu Fujin's idea. This idea sounds fantastic, but it seems feasible.

Shuwan said to Wu Fujin: "Tsk tsk tsk, I really admire you!"
