Dressed as Su Peisheng

Kangxi 45 years

July 28, Daliang Village in the suburbs of Beijing

Nian Shi and Li Shi got Fujin's approval, but when they returned to the small hall, Geng Shi had already started to mobilize.

"Nurse said that she can already see the child's head, and it's not easy to move now," Shiyue said with a pale face, and waited at the door with Niu Hulu, "Sister Song is going to clean up Geng's greenhouse, and we can get together after the child is born." Move over."

Nian nodded when he heard the words, looked inside the door with his head, and said with a little sigh, "I can only do this for the time being, I just feel wronged..."

"Speaking of which," Li glanced at Shiyue, her voice lowered, "Why did Geng suddenly fall when she was fine? Isn't Sister Wu always accompanying her in the small hall?"

Shiyue was speechless for a moment, and just about to lean over to apologize, Niu Hulu took a step forward and said, "I called my sister out of the small hall, sister Geng might have misheard our conversation, so she fell down in a moment of fright of."

"What did you talk about?" Nian raised his eyebrows slightly.

Niu Hulu didn't hide any more, pursed his lips and said, "Why do you still hide it from us? Eunuch Su took Ding Qi away when the princess gave birth. How could there be no rumors among the slaves? Just tell us." Honestly, my lord, did he really have smallpox?"

Nian's body trembled, he looked at Li Shi, and said in a low voice, "So what if you are, so what if you are not? Our palace is full of prosperity and damage. The younger sisters just need to rest in the village, other things Don't think about it too much. Otherwise, the master's heart will be messed up, and the slaves below will be turned upside down?"

Shi Yue tugged at Niu Hulu's sleeve, Niu Hulu lowered his head and didn't ask any more questions.

"Order," Nian turned to Ling Xi and said, "Let me hear any gossip in Zhuangzi again. The stewards in various places will be kicked out of the mansion directly for fifty boards per person!"

"Yes," Ling Xi leaned over hastily, and took people down to make arrangements.

In the warm room, Wanyan hugged her newborn brother, as if she liked something, "Look at the eyebrows and nose, how handsome! It looks like you when you were young, when you can open your eyes, you must be a handsome little brother .”

Fu Jin leaned on the bed, pursed his lips slightly, his expression was rather flat, only showing a little joy when he glanced at his baby body.

Wanyan knew what she was thinking, hesitated for a moment, then sighed softly, "Don't take it too seriously, don't say that you have been married to the prince for so many years, just say that this son-in-law was born, as long as there is nothing extremely important Son, the prince will never fail to come back."

Fujin breathed a sigh of relief, lowered his head and touched the quilt on his body, his face was still a little pale after just giving birth, "As long as the child is safe and sound, I don't expect anything else... I don't know what's going on with Geng's, head first Sister-in-law stops Nian and the others, so don't delay Geng's delivery."

"Don't worry," Wan Yan looked out the window, "Just now the girls came to report that although Young Master Geng gave birth prematurely, the birth went smoothly. A greenhouse has been cleaned up for her outside, and we just wait for the baby to be born, and we will move together." past."

Fujin nodded, and closed his eyes tiredly, Wanyan handed the little elder brother to the nanny, just about to cover Fujin with a quilt, when Wu Ya came from outside in a hurry.

"What are you doing here?" Wan Yan frowned, blocking the hot wind on Wu Ya's body, "Princess is weak, don't disturb her rest."

Wu Ya looked at Si Fujin who had closed his eyes, and pulled Wanyan aside, "Let me tell you, something happened. Just now I went to find out what Nian Fujin asked Dr. Ding to do, but it turned out that Dr. Ding was not there at all." In Zhuangzi, even Su Peisheng is gone."

Sifujin suddenly opened his eyes, half propped up his body and said, "Who are you talking about? Where did Su Peisheng go?"

"Princess," while talking, Shi Yao picked up the curtain and stepped into the house, "Geng Gege is born, and he is also a little elder brother."

At night, Prince Yong's Mansion

After a lot of tossing, the fourth elder brother finally stopped burning, and the pustules on his body no longer spread wantonly.

Zhang Qilin helped Su Wei change the sheets and quilts for the fourth elder brother, looked at Su Wei's pale face and said, "You've been busy all day, go and have a rest, here are me and Zhang Bao."

"No, I'm fine," Su Wei patted the neck of the fourth elder brother, and sat on the footbed with the edge of the bed.

"Don't worry, the master will be fine," Zhang Qilin sat down next to Su Wei, "The Zhou court judged that they put their heads on top of each other, how dare they not be conscientious. Besides, there are still the eleven examples above. Our master will definitely recover soon."

Su Wei pursed his lips and nodded slightly.

Zhang Qilin breathed a sigh of relief, and then said as if thinking of something, "By the way, the clan mansion and Shuntian mansion reminded me that our lord's illness was really caused by someone's manipulation, right?"

Su Wei glanced at Zhang Qilin, his eyes darkened, "Nine times out of ten, the master hasn't been to the west of the city recently, how could he have contracted this disease for no reason?"

"But," Zhang Qilin frowned, "I really can't think of anyone who is suspicious? The old man in the palace is responsible for the master's eating utensils. If you check them one by one, it will be like finding a needle in a haystack."

"You don't need to check one by one," Su Wei leaned back. "My master and I basically eat and live together. If the master is sick, but I'm fine, it means that there is nothing wrong with the master's daily diet. There must be something wrong." There are some occasions when I am separated from the master, when I go to the shop, when the master goes to court, and when the master goes to the backyard..."

"That's easy," Zhang Qilin slapped his hands, "Master, Zhang Bao and I must have someone by his side when he goes out. I remember most of the things the master used when he was out these few days. Just check them out one by one."

Su Wei turned his head to look at the fourth elder brother on the bed, and propped his chin with one hand, "I don't care who he is, or what his purpose is, this time, I will make him pay the price!"

A doomed sleepless night passed slowly in the sweltering heat, and at about dawn, Su Weicai fell asleep leaning against the bedpost.

"Su Wei, Su Wei..." A familiar voice called his name in the darkness. Su Wei wanted to open his eyes, but found that he couldn't move.

The cold touch wrapped around his neck, and the feeling of suffocation gradually came up. Su Wei tensed his nerves, biting the tip of his tongue fiercely, and a sharp pain pulled him back to reality from the boundless darkness.

"Eunuch Su," Zhang Qilin leaned over and patted Su Wei's face, "Are you stumped? It's almost dawn, go wash your face."

"How is the master?" Su Wei turned around and knelt down on the ottoman, reaching out to touch the neck of the fourth elder brother.

"Master hasn't woken up yet, and you have only slept for half an hour," Zhang Qilin said in a soft voice.

Su Wei sighed, and after a long while, stood up with the support of the head of the bed, "I'll go wash up, and then let the dining room prepare some food. Send someone to Zhuangzi to post a letter later, saying that the prince is not smallpox, let the little one Lord, don't worry."

"I see," Zhang Qilin nodded, watching Su Peisheng staggering out of the bedroom, he sighed softly.

Yuqing Palace

"How is the fourth child's illness?" The prince squinted his eyes and looked at Wei Min.

Wei Min lowered his head, "Returning to Your Highness, Prince Yong's Mansion was tightly besieged, and no news has come out yet. But I heard from people in the Clan Mansion that what the Prince has suffered is not smallpox, but another disease that has recently emerged in the capital." epidemic."

The prince picked up the tea bowl, scraped off the tea powder, and after pondering for a long while, he asked, "Then do you think the fourth child's illness was accidental or man-made?"

"This," Wei Min hesitated for a moment, bowed his body and said, "I really can't guess, if it was an accident, the Shuntian Mansion wouldn't be involved too. But if it's artificial—"

The prince put down the tea bowl, looked up at Wei Min, "You have been with Tuo Heqi for a long time, in your opinion, will Tuo Heqi hate the fourth child because of Wang Yi?"

"Ah?" Wei Min was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly knelt down and said, "No, no, Lord Tuoheqi is not a small-hearted person. Besides, His Highness has also issued an order not to make things difficult for Wang Yi. Lord Tuoheqi How could he poison Prince Yong without even moving a single hair on Wang Yi?"

The crown prince slightly bent his lips, stood up and helped Wei Min up, "I was just guessing for a moment, but you were frightened." The prince walked under the window with his hands behind his back, "Tuo Heqi's loyalty to the hall, the hall knows in his heart, and he will never stop." Because of a prince, he will have a quarrel with his own people."

"Your Highness is wise," Wei Min cupped his hands, "Actually, it doesn't matter whether Prince Yong's sudden emergency was accidental or man-made. The important thing is, if Prince Yong recovers, how will he view this series of accidents. Yi impeachment and Tuo Heqi are the first, there is already a gap between His Highness and Prince Yong."

"This hall understands," the prince sighed lightly, "it's just that this matter is still unknown, we can't act rashly, send messages to Tuo Heqi, Qi Shiwu, and Geng E, and restrain the people under our command, and don't let Wang Yi notice their relationship with this hall. relation."

"Yes, this subordinate understands," Wei Min took the order and retreated.

Xiao Chuzi came in with a sweet soup, seeing the prince staring out the window in a daze, he held the soup bowl and stood behind the prince.

The prince turned around and saw that slightly fat face, and then looked at the sweet corn soup in his hand, he couldn't help but smiled wryly, "I don't like sweets, I used a bowl last time because the weather was too hot. You're fine , and serve sweets to the hall in a different way every day."

Xiao Chuzi lowered his head, looked a little sluggish, hesitated for a while and muttered, "I heard people say that eating sweets makes me feel good..."

The prince was stunned for a moment, but finally he bent his mouth and took the soup bowl from Xiao Chuzi's hand.

At this time, Prince Yong's Mansion

There was a sound of vomiting in the dormitory, the imperial physicians discussed the prescription for a day and a night, but it was impossible to use it at the fourth elder brother's place.

"What can I do? It looks like it's burning again."

"There is no medicinal material with a strong smell in the prescription, it can still be used yesterday."

"Vomiting is a major symptom of this epidemic. The doctors in the city said yesterday that the patient can't eat anything at the end..."

Seeing that the fourth elder brother vomited until his face turned pale, and the imperial doctors gathered in the room were still arguing, Su Wei was in a hurry.It was Zhang Bao who stepped forward and led several imperial physicians to the outer hall for discussion.

Zhang Qilin brought a bowl of freshly brewed medicine, walked up to Su Wei and said in a low voice, "Grandpa Su, what should I do if the master can't drink the medicine, and it will burn again after a while?"

Su Wei grabbed the braids and looked at the fourth elder brother who was panting heavily on the bed, and then at the bowl of thick black concoction, thinking about it, "You all go out, I will feed the master the medicine, don't let others in."

"Oh, yes," Zhang Qilin handed the medicine bowl to Su Wei, and exited the bedroom with a little doubt.

The fourth elder brother was sober at this time, but when he saw the bowl of medicine, he turned his head away in disgust.

"The other pregnant women are pregnant in October, and they are not as weak as you." Su Wei sniffed while holding the medicine bowl, "You see Fujin's morning sickness is so severe, don't you still insist on eating?"

The fourth elder brother glared at Su Wei, his voice was so hoarse that he couldn't speak.

Su Wei pouted, suddenly lowered his head, took a big mouthful of the medicine juice, and leaned over.

The fourth elder brother was startled, shut his mouth tightly and turned his head away, but unfortunately he didn't have much strength, he couldn't even push Su Wei away.

Su Wei puffed his cheeks, his eyes were wide open, and he turned his head back and forth following the movements of the fourth elder brother, "Mmm! Mmmmm! Mmmmm!!!"

In the end, Eunuch Su couldn't hold on anymore, he put the medicine bowl on the ottoman, held the head of the fourth elder brother with both hands, and swallowed it in one gulp!

"Eunuch Su, you are crazy!" At the critical moment, Zhang Bao broke in and pulled Su Wei up, but it was still a step too late, "What if I get infected?"

"It's okay, it's clear that it's not a droplet infection." Su Wei broke free from Zhang Bao's hand, looked back at the blushing fourth elder brother who didn't know if he had a fever again, and said with a silly smile, "Sure enough, I didn't vomit. oh……"
