Dressed as Su Peisheng

Kangxi 42 years

After the consultant left, Grandpa Su, who flew back to the East Courtyard like a gust of wind, became manic.

Lord Qianlong's mother-in-law, Niu Hulu, is about to enter the mansion, and the fourth elder brother wants to interrogate Suo'etu's wife and children at night. All important matters have been left behind by Su Wei. At this time, there is only one thing that makes his neck chill. Lord Kangxi knows up!

"Boss Gu is the emperor's confidant. I heard from my master in the early years that the consulting business is to help the emperor handle affairs outside." Su Wei walked from the east to the west of the room, and from the west back to the east, "he issued an imperial edict When he acted so naturally, what he said to me was ambiguous, and he was clearly implying me about duty and affection. By the way, there is Niu Hulu——"

"Okay," the fourth elder brother leaned on the couch with his cheeks, stretched out his hand and pulled the anxious Eunuch Su to sit beside him, "You don't even think about it carefully, if Huang Ama really knows, you can still be alive and kicking at this moment Going around in circles in front of Grandpa?"

"But, that's the emperor's secret decree. The consultant line has no intention of evading me," Su Wei's face turned pale, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.

The fourth elder brother smiled, and stretched out his hand to wipe Su Wei's sweat, "You value the secret decree too much. Suo'etu's family members are detained in Suo'ertu's mansion, and there are special guards. The Lord wants to interrogate them. No matter how much you keep it secret, it is impossible." Don't disturb anyone, let alone the people around you. Your Eunuch Su has been with you for so many years, and no one inside and outside the palace knows that the consultant line is the best of the best. He didn't avoid you, which is also a gesture of kindness to you. .As for what I told you before I left, it was nothing but the teachings of the elders to the younger ones."

The fourth elder brother's words seemed to be reasonable, Su Wei blinked his eyes and thought for a while, and finally calmed down his restless heart just now.

"Okay, I'm tired after being tormented by you." The fourth elder brother patted Su Wei on the back, "Take a rest with my father, we will have a night trial for repeat offenders tonight."

"Oh, good..." Su Wei was still a little listless, climbed up on the couch and lay down next to the fourth elder brother, and closed his eyes with his head full of wild thoughts.

The fourth elder brother stroked Su Wei's hair for a while, watching his breathing gradually calm down, and his face with a soft smile gradually lost expression.

Zhang Bao knelt in the main room, and after listening to the fourth elder brother's words, he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar in a cold day, "I wish to die to prove my innocence, master, please learn from me!"

"Keep your voice down, he's sleeping in the house," Si elder brother lowered his eyes, sipping the tea in his hand, "If this is done correctly, no one will be able to escape suspicion. But you, my lord, still have [-]% confidence. Therefore, I leave it to you to investigate. Now, the most suspicious people should be the people who have been with the Lord since the establishment of the mansion. Whether it is a doorman or a guard, if you have stayed in the mansion for a long time, if you want to find out something, you must I can detect some troubles."

"Yes, the slave is taking orders." Zhang Bao bent down, raised his head again and said, "Master, if you find something, how should you deal with it?"

The fourth elder brother put down the tea bowl, and walked to the door with his hands behind his back, "If it's really from the palace, you can't act rashly. It's best if you can use it for me like Ma Lian. If you can't, it depends on what news he holds in his hand." ..."

"Your servant understands," Zhang Bao bowed his body, "Your servant will investigate now!"

Zhang Bao led the order to retreat, and the fourth elder brother opened the curtain to look at the person who seemed to be sleeping peacefully on the couch in the house, sighed softly, turned and went to the study.

As the footsteps drifted away, in the dim light of the evening, a pair of big clear eyes slowly opened.

At night, the side door of Si Ye's mansion opened, and a carriage drove into the long street.

Suo'etu's family members were detained in the original Suoxiang Mansion, under the care of Suo'etu's two elder brothers Xinyu and Fabao.Lord Kangxi has an order that if something happens to Suo'etu's family, Xinyu and Fabao will be killed.

The fourth elder brother held the emperor's secret decree and successfully knocked on the door of Suoxiang's mansion. Xinyu personally accompanied the fourth elder brother into the mansion, and Su Wei followed behind, feeling quite embarrassed along the way.The luxury and splendor of Suoxiang's mansion is second to none among the high officials in Beijing. However, Suo'etu has been imprisoned for only two months, and the garden is already full of broken flowers and willows. It was filthy.

But when everyone entered the main hall, Eunuch Su realized that the dilapidated courtyard was just an appearance, and the most touching thing was the rich and powerful people who once called the wind and rain.

Geerfen got up from the bunk, with shackles on his feet. Although his face was in a mess, his voice was very indifferent, "The guilty minister waits to see Si Baylor, Si Baylor Wanan."

The fourth elder brother pursed his lips, and slowly glanced around for a week. The male family members who were sleeping on the main hall and the female family members who came out of the inner hall had already gathered in one place, and they all bowed down to salute.

"Get up," the fourth elder brother said in a gentle voice, "I was ordered to hear some news, and I don't want to make it difficult for you. Please cooperate with me so that Ben Baylor can make a smooth transition."

Geerfen leaned over from the side and said, "The guilty ministers will definitely obey Lord Baylor's arrangements, but regarding my father's matter, I have to explain everything I have to say. I really don't know what else I can do for Lord Baylor."

The fourth elder brother took a look at Geerfen, and said in a slightly cold voice, "If you don't know, then think about it carefully. Master Suo has not been in the court for a short time, so he will definitely remember something."

Xinyu ordered people to clean up two of the wing rooms as interrogation rooms. Fu Nai and Shen Tingzheng, one Wen and one Wu, were the presiding judges, and Su Wei stood behind the fourth brother who was drinking tea to watch the fun.

Suo'etu's family members were brought in one by one and taken out one by one. The female family members shook their heads or remained silent, but they rarely cried.When it was the men's turn, all they confided were old sesame seeds and rotten grains, and when it came to the nephews of Suo'etu Xinzhong, they began to practice Tai Chi again, blurring the focus.Seeing that it was midnight, Shen Tingzheng didn't write a few words at all.

"Master, this is not the way," Fu Nai said as he walked up to the fourth elder brother.

The fourth elder brother put down the tea bowl and sighed softly. Su Wei's neck began to feel cool.

"Punishment", the fourth elder brother lowered his head slightly, and stroked his cuffs.

"Yes," Fu Nai bowed to accept the order.

When Suo'etu's nephew was dragged into the room, Su Wei finally knew why Xinyu asked people to clean up the two rooms.

The dull pause and depressing groans reminded Su Wei in a trance of many years ago, when Zhengsan was stolen, and he and a group of slaves were taken to the Punishment Department.It was one of the most inconspicuous courtyards in the palace, with low beams and a gray room. There were no instruments of torture or blood in the eyes, but certain voices that came to my ears from time to time made people want to collapse due to depression.

"Lord Baylor," Xinyu pushed the door in, interrupting Su Wei's terrified thoughts.

"What's the matter?" Brother Si tilted his head slightly.

Xinyu swallowed secretly, bowed down and said, "Please forgive me, Lord Baylor, I'm afraid I have to go to the clan's residence."

"Now?" Brother Si squinted his eyes, "Who told you to go over?"

Xinyu was a little taken aback, with a hesitant look on his face, the fourth elder brother put down the tea bowl, and said with a crisp sound, "Ben Beile came here under the secret order of Emperor Ama, what do you dare to hide?"

"Don't dare, don't dare," Xinyu lowered his head in a hurry, "Go back to Sibeile, Sanbeile and Babeile at the clan's mansion were also ordered to interrogate Suo'ertu by the emperor's secret decree, and just sent someone to summon the ministers, I'm afraid something will happen hear the news."

"Oh?" The fourth elder brother raised his eyebrows slightly, and exhaled slowly, "That's fine, you just go there. However, it's helpless for me to know what's going on with the third brother, and you have to keep silent about what's going on here. After all, what we received were all secret decrees, and if any party leaked the news, Lord Suo might not be able to explain it before Huang Ama."

"Yes, yes, I understand, thank you Sibei Le for your reminder," Xinyu bowed repeatedly, then bowed and retreated.

The fourth elder brother's complexion slowly fell, Su Wei frowned and thought for a long time, but still didn't quite understand, "Master, why did the emperor go to such lengths to pass on so many imperial edicts, asking you to interrogate Suo'etu and his family members separately?" Ah? If you want to investigate what Suo Ertu committed, why not investigate it openly?"

The fourth elder brother thought for a while, then slowly shook his head, "Huang Ama's thoughts are too difficult to guess, and I can't guess for a while, but now it seems that Huang Ama is more important than investigating Suo'etu. The performance of the three of us."

As the sky gradually brightened, Su Wei was leaning against the corner and drowsy.Shen Tingzheng finally got a few pieces of paper out of his pen, and the fourth elder brother checked them one by one, and there were some new things, but they were all not big or small.

"Master," Shen Tingzheng got up and said, "Geerfen, those people will not open their mouths even if they are dead. I am afraid that the others have vomited nothing. Should we send someone to investigate in private? At the beginning, Wei Jingguo followed Shao Gan, but stayed behind. Lots of clues."

The fourth elder brother shook his head and flicked the paper in his hand, "It will be over in a few more days of interrogation, and whatever can be asked is what it is, there is no need to waste it."

"Yes," Shen Tingzheng thought for a while, bowed his head and accepted the order.

When Su Wei returned home with the fourth elder brother, it was already daylight, and before he had breakfast, Fujin sent someone to invite him.Su Wei muttered and left fourth elder brother behind, climbed into bed to catch up on sleep, fourth master had to slap him twice, and took Zhang Qilin to Fujin courtyard by himself.

Fujin welcomed the fourth master into the house, but saw that the fourth elder brother looked tired, "Did you not rest last night, okay? But what happened in the house?"

"No," the fourth elder brother shook his head, took a sip of the tea offered by the maid, "it's just that the weather was too hot and I couldn't sleep well. Since Huang Ama has an imperial decree, Niu Hulu's affairs can't be done." Negligence, Zhuangzi will not go there for now, you should make good arrangements to bring people into the mansion as soon as possible."

"Yes," Fujin slightly leaned over, with a calm expression, "The four small courtyards on the west side courtyard are all occupied, and I want to tidy up the east wing of my courtyard, although it is not spacious, it can still accommodate people. "

"No need," the fourth elder brother shook his head, "You are Fujin, how can you let Ge Ge live in the same courtyard as Geng Shi? Even though it is a small courtyard, there are wing rooms that can accommodate you The servants who serve are all arranged to live on the East Road."

"My lord is right, it's my concubine's negligence," Fujin raised the corners of his mouth, and bowed to the fourth elder brother again, "It's really a good thing that a newcomer enters the mansion, it's time for us to have a baby in our backyard."

The fourth elder brother looked at her, picked up the tea bowl and scraped off the tea dust, "There are more and more people in our house, I'm afraid it's too tiring for you to take care of the backyard by yourself. My master wants to ask Huang Ama for the throne." Fujin, I might as well help you."

Fujin was taken aback, and looked at the fourth elder brother with a bit of coldness in his eyes, "Thank you for understanding my concubine's hard work, I don't know which one is the master who wants to be sealed?"

The fourth elder brother pursed his lips, picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, "Ms. Li has been in the mansion for many years. She is also dignified and stable, and she is not as dull as Mrs. Song. In addition, she has contributed a lot to giving birth to Irha. It is worthy of the title of side Fujin."
