Dressed as Su Peisheng

Chapter 138 Undercurrent

Kangxi 40 years

Siyefu

In July, the sky brightened very early, and when the morning light was faint, it was the beginning of Yinshi.The light pierced through the darkness, and Su Gonggong, who was in a misty sleep, immediately turned over and stuffed his head into the quilt.

The fourth elder brother opened his eyes and saw someone in the shape of a turtle, bent his mouth, and slowly reached out with one hand.

"Hmm..." Su Wei frowned subconsciously, and curled up into the quilt even harder, but he couldn't stop the hand that did bad things.

The fourth elder brother pursed his lips and smiled, leaned forward and kissed the tip of Su Wei's ear, Su Wei moved slightly, and his big eyes were barely opened.

After a while, there was a muffled "boom" in the room, shaking the door three times.

Outside the door, the servants waiting to serve looked at each other, and Zhang Qilin, the leader, picked out his ears with a calm expression.

In the bedroom, Su Wei was sitting on the head of the bed covered with a quilt, half-opening his big eyes and looking innocently at the fourth elder brother who fell to the ground with an angry expression on his face.

West Hospital

Song Gege got up very early, sitting alone in front of the mirror in a daze, without the company of his daughter in the backyard, it really was like a day for decades, as ordinary as water.

"Little master," Yang'er walked into the door carrying a water basin, "I heard from the little girls that Li Gege is sick."

"Ill?" Song raised her eyebrows slightly, "Didn't you see Fourth Master well yesterday, why are you sick today?"

"I don't know," Yang'er shook her head honestly, "Several old women were sent in the front yard, and they said they were serving Li Gege, and no one is allowed to disturb him during his recovery."

Song frowned and thought for a moment, then the back of her neck began to shiver slightly, "Is it the order from the fourth elder brother?"

"Eunuch Zhang Bao led the people here, I think it was ordered by the fourth elder brother." Yang'er said.

Song Shi pursed her lips, turned around and looked at the blurred figure in the mirror, and sighed after a while, "Forget it, let's just obey the order and tell the people below not to lean towards Li Shi's yard."

"Yes," Yang'er blinked, and bent over obediently.

Fujin Courtyard

Shi Yao combed Fujin's hair in a bun, and said slowly, "I don't know how Li Gege offended Lord Belle. He said that he went to court this morning to give orders."

Fujin stroked his temples, and sighed, "Ms. Li is a bit clever, but she is very impulsive. It's better to obey the rules than Mrs. Song. I think she was talking about the things before the northern tour, which angered fourth master. Master I mentioned it to me once, saying that no one below the third elder brother brought a concubine, so he changed his mind temporarily. Mrs. Li didn't know how to inquire, and lost her temper indiscriminately, and the fourth elder brother never had much affection for the backyard. Shouldn't you be ignoring her for a while now?"

Shi Yao pursed the corners of her lips, and stopped the smile on her lips, "It's because Li Gege is ignorant that she is not blessed, but the maidservant can see that Baylor still values ​​Fujin the most, if it wasn't for Fujin, Baylor didn't bring it Li's heart. Let me tell you, Fujin will go with me next time, and it will be a good thing to give our elder brother a younger brother while he is in good time."

"Nonsense," Fujin glared at Shiyao reproachfully, and Shiyao pursed her lips in amusement.

Fujin turned his head to look at himself in the mirror, reached out and gently stroked the corners of his eyes.

East courtyard

Su Wei didn't go to court with the fourth elder brother, and sat alone in the pavilion morosely.After all, Li Gege's incident started with him, and it went around and hurt several people's hearts.Now that the fourth elder brother has detained Li Gege, Ilha doesn't know what to worry about.

"Eunuch Su," Zhang Qilin leaned closer, "Are you hurting the spring and the autumn again here?"

"Are you hurting the spring and the autumn?" Su Wei glared at Zhang Qilin, "I am thinking about life, I will reflect on myself three times a day, do you understand?"

"I don't understand," Zhang Qilin shook his head disconcertingly, "I only understand that people value self-knowledge, take care of what should be taken care of, and what should not be taken care of, otherwise I will be tired and others will be tired too."

"What do you mean?" Su Wei turned his head to look at Zhang Qilin, "I didn't talk too much this time, you were there when the master spoke, I was just feeling bored."

"Too bored?" Zhang Qilin raised his eyebrows.

"Yeah," Su Wei leaned over and grabbed a grass and put it in his mouth. "It's all about me. Now that Li Gege is being imprisoned, Ilha is worried, and my father is also uncomfortable..."

"Master, why is it uncomfortable?" Zhang Qilin raised his ears, and approached Su Wei like a curious baby.

Su Wei smacked his lips, "Li Gege knew about me at the beginning, and he was loyal to the fourth elder brother. Later, he gave birth to Ilha, and the fourth elder brother treated her a little—"

Su Wei was taken aback, shut his mouth suddenly, almost bit his tongue, glared at Zhang Qilin angrily and stood up, "I don't know anything, I'm going to eat!"

Zhang Qilin pursed his lips, looked at Su Wei's bitter and bitter back, and smiled gloatingly, "Doesn't it feel good to eat?"

In mid-July, the thirteenth elder brother and the fourteenth elder brother were about to move to the palace, and the fourth elder brother took the two younger brothers to the house and let them choose the ceremony of moving to the palace in the warehouse.

The thirteenth elder brother was always loyal and courteous, and picked up a few of them that were practical and rare in the palace, and the fourth elder brother gave a few precious calligraphy and paintings as a gift.

The fourteenth elder brother is not restrained at all, and looks like a master. He went into the warehouse to pick out valuables, and Su Wei was terrified watching from the side.

At the end of July, Beijing seemed to be on fire, and the fourth elder brother asked the emperor for an order to take his family to Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing to escape the summer heat, and the emperor agreed.

In the backyard, the fourth elder brother is not going to take Li Gege with him, Fujin asks to stay and take care of Li Shi, Song Shi always doesn't like to go out.In the end, there was only Shiyue, and several young masters accompanied the fourth elder brother to Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing.

Yi Erha has always been thinking about Li Shi's illness, and there was a lot of trouble when he was leaving. The fourth elder brother had no choice but to ask Li Nanny to lead Yi Erha to the Xipei courtyard to have a look, and talked to Li Shi through the screen, It's a temporary stop.

Life in Zhuangzi is consistently free and comfortable.

When the sun was not high in the morning, the fourth elder brother led Honghui to the field to tend the farmland, and the two little Gege put on coarse clothes and followed Madam Li to pick vegetables in the vegetable field.

Shiyue watched the excitement under the shed while talking to Su Wei who was squatting on the edge of the field.Within a few days, Eunuch Su, who was habitually lazy, was forcibly carried by the fourth elder brother to weed the farmland.

Throughout the summer, Beijing and China were peaceful on the surface, and the tension and urgency during the northern tour seemed to have never happened.On the eighth day of August, good news came from Changchun Garden, Wang Guiren gave birth to eighteen elder brothers, the Holy One was overjoyed and rewarded Liugong.

The fourth elder brother led Su Wei to stay in Zhuangzi until September, after Lord Kangxi returned to the palace from Changchun Garden, he followed him back to the capital.

At the beginning of September, Suo'etu turned up and asked to retreat for the third time, and the emperor finally agreed, and Suo'etu's brother Xinyu was temporarily appointed as the minister of the bodyguard.

For a while, two rumors arose in the court, one said that Suo Xiang's ups and downs in the court had come to an end, and it was difficult for him to take on the big responsibility.The other said that the emperor Ti Xinyu took over the position of minister of the bodyguard, which is enough to prove that the Holy Majesty attaches great importance to Suoxiang, and the glory of the Hesheli family will continue.

Neither the prince nor the elder brother said a word about this, and the two factions that had always been incompatible in the past have now all died down.The situation in the court was calm for a while, but it was not known whether the calm lake was a bottomless quagmire or a rough undercurrent.

On the contrary, the fourth elder brother often went to the palace recently, helping the emperor and the prince read the memorials, and participating in political affairs, it seemed that he was very busy.

Su Wei doesn't know what other people think, anyway, he himself is quite worried, the fourth elder brother often wakes up inexplicably in the middle of the night, and then hugs him all night long to stay awake.Su Wei really wanted to talk to the fourth elder brother, but he swallowed the words again.

In October, after the Golden Festival, the court was busy measuring the land in Huguang and other places. The fourth elder brother almost lived in the palace, but Kangxi was very happy to grab a strong man to help him.It's just that Eunuch Su has to run around in the underground palace and in the mansion from time to time.

Shiyue's father, Wu Zhuguo, entrusted someone from Shanyang County to send a lot of things to his daughter, and happened to be met by Su Wei who was returning home.

Su Wei sent things to the Xibei Hospital for others. Shiyue was very happy, and picked up a lot of local products and distributed them to Su Wei. People call him honest and honest. He has been a scholar all his life, and now he can benefit the people of one side, and his father has fulfilled his wish."

Su Wei grinned, "My father is honest and serious, so you can feel more at ease in the mansion."

Shiyue pursed her lips and smiled, noncommittal.

It is not advisable to stay longer in Shiyue Courtyard, Su Wei quickly said goodbye and left.There was silence in the west courtyard, Song Gege didn't like to go out, Li Gege's door was watched closely by two nuns.

Su Wei looked into Li Gege's courtyard, and unconsciously lowered his head to take a half step away, but when he stepped out of the gate of the Xipei courtyard, he was startled by a small figure huddling behind the door.

"Er Gege?" Su Wei went around to the back of the door, and it was Yi Erha who was squatting on the stone platform behind the door, his eyes were as red as a rabbit caught in the wind.

"Grandpa Su," Yilha replied with his mouth flattened, and lowered his head to scratch the cracks in the stone.

"Why are you here alone?" Su Wei looked around, "Where is Nanny Li, where are the servants beside you?"

Yilha glanced at Su Wei, sniffled, "I threw them away, who told them not to let me see my mother... But I managed to get to the West Secondary Courtyard, the two gatekeepers My nanny still won't let me in."

Su Wei swallowed his saliva, squatted next to Ilha, and said falteringly, "Well, Li Xiaozhu is sick, and when he recovers, Gege can--"

"Liar!" Ilha interrupted Su Wei, "Don't think that I can fool me just because I'm a child, what disease takes so long? Besides, my mother has always been in good health. I know, it's Ama Got angry with Er Niang, locked her up!"

Su Wei was speechless for a moment, Ilha wiped his eyes, his small face was already disfigured, "I guessed it when I came back from Zhuangzi, but Ama is always not in the mansion, and Fujin doesn't listen to me , I don’t know who to turn to…”

Seeing Ilha's tears falling down like beads, Su Wei panicked, "Er Gege, don't cry, this way, I will help you find a way, and I will tell Lord Belle."

Ilha sobbed and looked at Su Wei, "Really? Tell me, will Ama agree?"

Su Wei pursed his lips, and said to Ilha soothingly, "Er Gege, don't worry, Lord Belle has always loved you, knowing that you are suffering, and will definitely let you see Xiaozhu Li."

Yilha looked at Su Wei with his mouth squinted for a long time, then nodded slowly.

Su Wei pretended to be full of business, left the fourth master's mansion, and boarded the carriage into the palace.

Zhang Qilin, who was traveling with him, looked at Su Wei for a long time and said, "I heard from the servants that you went to the Xibei Academy and found Er Gege for Nanny Li?"

Su Wei nodded, Zhang Qilin frowned and said, "You still remember what I said last time, this backyard is not our business."

Su Wei looked at Zhang Qilin and sighed, "But we can't go on like this forever, Er Gege is still young. No matter what happens to Li Gege, the fourth elder brother has to take care of the child's affection."

Zhang Qilin scratched his head in embarrassment, wanting to say something but didn't know how to say it.

"Stop!" Su Wei yelled out, turned and said to Zhang Qilin, "You enter the palace, I'll go to Wenfangzhai."

Su Wei lingered in Wenfangzhai until the evening before he could buy a pair of brushes he was satisfied with. The master craftsman in Wenfangzhai was getting old, and now it is almost impossible to buy pens made by him except regular customers.Su Wei also took advantage of De Zhu's affection at the beginning, and spent a lot of money to find such a set.

Su Wei, who entered the palace with the box in his hand, was a little absent-minded. After entering the Jingyun Gate, he kept walking along the wall without looking up, until he shouted, "Bold!" The boxes were scattered all over the place.

"The slave is guilty," Su Wei knelt on the ground, and didn't dare to look up to see who it was. Anyway, he didn't salute, so he just confessed the crime.

For a while, no one responded to Su Wei's words, and Su Wei didn't dare to move at will.

After a long while, a hand with an apricot-yellow sleeve with gold patterns picked up the writing brush in front of Su Wei. Su Wei's heart skipped a beat, it was the prince.
