Dressed as Su Peisheng

Kangxi 45 years

September [-], Xilaishun

Brother Fourteen took quite a long time for this meal, and it was almost evening when he went downstairs, and there were only a few tables of diners left in the shop.

Su Wei, who was pulling the abacus beads behind the counter, heard the movement, and hurried up to greet him, "How is the meal, sir? Is the taste okay?"

"It's not bad," Elder Fourteen slightly raised his head, "Your soup base and sauce are really good."

"Oh, my servant, thank you Fourteenth Lord for your compliment," Su Wei smirked twice and lowered his head, his brows and eyes curved into a slit.

Fourteenth elder brother glanced at Su Wei, sighed secretly, "I have something to ask you, you go with me."

Su Wei was taken aback for a moment, but didn't ask any further questions. He bowed his head and followed Elder Fourteen out of Xilaishun.

Outside the door, Lu Rui had already led the horse. After waiting for the fourteenth elder brother to get into the carriage, he waved to Su Wei and said, "Grandpa Su, please."

Su Wei blinked his eyes, thinking why the kid didn't stutter anymore, and with a premonition of boarding a pirate ship, he followed Elder Fourteen into the carriage.The brown steed snorted, turned around and drove towards the intersection.

The Hefeng Building, which is across the street from Xilaishun, is overcrowded at this time.The adult men at the three-five-one table were all dressed in rough linen and linen clothes. Individually they looked very ordinary, but together they were a bit scary.

In the private room on the second floor, the tenth elder brother Yinji was sitting by the window with a gloomy face, the teapot on the table was already cool, but the servants who were serving him did not dare to approach easily.

"Jun Wang," Dachun, the tenth elder brother's personal bodyguard, pushed the door open, leaned over to the tenth elder brother and said, "The fourteenth elder brother has already come out, and just took the servants into the carriage and left."

"Humph, he's a good judge," Yin Qu curled up his lips coldly, turned his head and looked out the window, two bright red lanterns had already lit up under Xi Laishun's newly painted eaves, "Send the order, let's do it!"

"Yes," Dachun bent down again, and took the order.

After a while, several groups of people in different costumes walked out of several nearby restaurants one after another.In the depths of the alley, several carts full of wine jars creaked towards the corner of the street.

On the other side of the carriage, Su Wei looked at the fourteenth elder brother who was silent all the way from time to time, and did not dare to open his mouth for a long time.Knowing the cause and effect, Lu Rui hid outside the car door early, leaving Eunuch Su and his master looking at each other.

"Master Fourteen," after hesitating for a while, Su Wei finally dared to speak, "If you have anything to ask this servant, just ask, and this servant will know everything."

The fourteenth elder brother glanced at him, stretched out his hand and opened the window to look. The carriage had already driven out of the long street, and it was some distance away from Xilaishun.

"Stop fooling me." Brother Fourteen leaned against the wall of the car, "If it was about Brother Four, you wouldn't know everything."

Su Wei pursed his lips. He didn't understand the meaning of Brother Fourteen's words for a while, so he smirked twice and said, "The prince is the master of the slave, and you are also the master of the slave. The slave is a little eunuch, masters When you ask a question, you can naturally say whatever you can."

"Cut," Elder Fourteen snorted coldly, turned his head away, and after being silent for a while, took out a few banknotes from his sleeve and handed them to Su Wei.

Su Wei took the bank note and was stunned. Others didn't know it, but he was familiar with it. The 2 taels of silver note was exactly what he told Zhang Bao to secretly send to the fourteenth master's house.Later, the fourth elder brother donated 5 taels to the thirteenth elder brother. He was afraid that the fourteenth elder brother would find out that he was unbalanced, so he forced the fourth elder brother to give 5 taels to the fourteenth elder brother.The first 2 taels is not so conspicuous.It's just that I don't know why Brother Fourteen suddenly took out the bank note again.

"Master Fourteen, what is this?"

"Don't pretend to be a fool for me," Elder Fourteen folded his arms and said in a low voice, "After thinking about it, my brother has the courage and ability to send these 2 taels without permission, and there is no one else but you! Say, Is it your ghost idea?"

Su Wei shrugged his shoulders in astonishment, and said with a grievance on his face, "The Fourteenth Lord thinks highly of this slave, and the slave only has six taels of silver a month, so he can make up 2 taels in the year of the monkey. Besides, after our prince Didn’t I give you 5 taels back? How could you suspect this servant?”

"Huh," Elder Fourteen sneered, took out another silver ticket and patted it in front of Su Wei, "Why do you think I suspect you? Let me ask you, do you think a person who has always insisted on his identity, desperate to face, Will a stubborn person who has just been promoted to the title of prince put away the internally-produced money and give away money from a private bank like Shanxi Tianhe Bank?"

Su Wei was stunned for a moment, shaking his head again and again, and then he nodded vigorously after realizing something, and finally froze in place without shaking or at all.

Elder Fourteen glared at him resentfully, then leaned angrily on the cushion and stopped talking.

Su Wei bit his lip, thought for a moment, and cautiously approached, "It is true that the slave made up his own mind about this matter at the beginning, but the master knew it right away, and the slave's money was also given by the master. Later, 5 Wan Liang is even more money from the prince. In the end, you and the prince are blood brothers, so the money is nothing. "

Fourteenth elder brother gave Su Wei another look, and said in a neutral manner, "You can talk, and I don't even know how my elder brother disciplines you. He dares to make his own decisions with 2 taels of silver! If this is given to you Ladder, can you poke a hole in the sky?"

"I don't dare," Su Wei shrank back to the car door with a smirk, "Isn't it because I understand the master's mind that I dare to make my own decisions? The master is thinking about the fourteenth master, even if you can't be ashamed, you don't always go Go to the palace—”

"You're still blaming the master," Elder Fourteen threw a cushion over, "If I hadn't informed Elder Brother about what happened before—" Elder Fourteen paused, didn't say any more, just tensed up. Face said, "Take the silver ticket away, you should go back too!"

"This can't be done," Su Wei lifted the curtain of the car with one hand, "The master already knows, and the slave dares not make his own decisions anymore! Please keep the bank note, and the slave will leave first!" Without waiting for the car to stop, he directly Jumped out of the carriage and ran back.

"Eunuch Su!" Lu Rui yelled, but Su Weiquan pretended not to hear him, and rushed into the alley.

"Forget it," Elder Fourteen opened the car window and looked in the direction of Xilaishun, "Let's bypass Su Peisheng and go to Hefeng Tower!"

At this time in Xilaishun, the flames soaring into the sky illuminated the whole shop red, and the sound of wooden shelves snapping came from time to time.

The shopkeeper Ji Hongde was instructing the guys to put out the fire, but unfortunately, the carts that crashed into the shop were full of old wine, and a spark would burn them into pieces, so beating them with clothes was of no use at all.The people nearby ran out of the house, some helped put out the fire, some watched and discussed, and the nearby shops and houses were all saving their valuables.

As soon as Su Wei turned out of the alley, he heard noisy voices. When he looked up, he saw that the whole Xilaishun was surrounded by flames and smoke.

"How did this happen?" Su Wei rushed to the scene of the fire in shock, and was hurriedly stopped by Ji Hongde with a face full of ashes, "Don't go, Mr. Su! The fire is too big, be careful of danger!"

"Why did it suddenly catch fire?" Su Wei stared at the already unrecognizable facade, and his consciousness was in a trance for a moment.

"Several carts loaded with wine crashed under the window, and the wine jars fell directly on the coals." Ji Hongde coughed twice, and there was another crackling sound outside the fire scene, and an exclamation came from the crowd.

Su Wei woke up suddenly, pushed Ji Hongde away and ran to the front of the fire and shouted, "Don't fight the fire, stay away from the fire, beware of the wine jar exploding!"

Seeing this, Ji Hongde also stepped forward and said, "I listen to Cai Dong, everyone withdraw! Wang Fu, go and notify the fire dragon team!"

Guys gathered around one after another, and Su Wei asked Ji Hongde to count the number of people while comforting the surrounding people.

The sound of collapses came from the shop one after another, and the explosion of the wine jar drew the flames further away, and there was another commotion in the crowd.Some burnt people fell on the side of the road, and Su Wei hurriedly sent people to rescue them.

In the chaos, no one noticed that a group of men in bunts with daggers pinned to their waists slowly approached the crowd.

Wo Fung Building

The tenth elder brother Yinji stood at the window of the private room, looking at the thick black smoke not far away, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth.

The guard Dachun came from the outside and said in a low voice, "Jun Wang, the subordinates are all ready, and the Fire Dragon Team and the Yacha also arranged for people to stop it. But, after all, there are so many people watching, just in case was discovered—”

"What are you afraid of?" Elder Brother Shi interrupted Dachun's words, "If your hands and feet are sharp, can anyone still suspect me? Besides, just burning down one of his stores is not enough to put a gap between your teeth. No Let him bleed a little, it will be hard to dispel the hatred in my heart."

"But," Dachun pursed his lips, and then hesitated again, "There are many ordinary people around, and my subordinates are worried about hurting innocent people."

"What is there to worry about?" Elder Brother Ten bent his lips, "Prince Yong's shop caught fire, causing the surrounding people's homes to be destroyed and displaced. How can he have the face to teach others a lesson when such a reputation spreads?"

"This subordinate understands," Dachun leaned over and cupped his hands, "Subordinate, let's go!"

"Wait a minute," a tall and straight figure appeared at the door of the private room, blocking Dachun's way.

Yinti turned her head, and when she saw the person coming, she frowned and said, "Yinti, you are here to make trouble for me today, right?"

Elder Fourteen took a step forward, with cold eyes, "Xilaishun is already on fire, Brother Ten should let out his anger, so why make things worse?"

"It's not up to you to deal with this king's affairs!" Yinji glared at the fourteenth elder brother, then turned his head and looked out the window, "If you want to complain to the fourth brother, go ahead! Anyway, I have already seen it, you are A grass on the wall that is muddy everywhere, while wooing mynah, leaning on his own brother at the same time, and pretending to be loyal, it is disgusting!"

"Brother Ten set fire to hurt people in broad daylight, and you blamed me instead?" Elder Fourteen raised his eyebrows, "Do you really think that Huang Ama will not pursue people if they kill someone? Governor Shuntian is not a good friend If you ask him to find out the truth, and hand over a booklet, Brother Ten will not just be squatting in the clan's mansion."

"Are you threatening me?" Elder Brother Shi turned around with a sneer, "This king has a way to shut up all the insiders, believe it or not? The starling has already traveled north with Huang Ama, don't think I will say more For your sake."

"Since the tenth brother mentioned the mynah, I still have a question to ask." The fourteenth elder brother curled his lips and said, "Your act of setting fire in broad daylight and then trying to kill someone, does the mynah know? Last time you The fourth brother was imprisoned in the clan mansion, how much effort did the eighth brother plead for you. The tenth brother said that I always pretended to be loyal and disgusting, but I didn't expect that when the tenth brother came here, I didn't even want to pretend."

"You—" the tenth elder brother was speechless for a while, after looking at the fourteenth elder brother for a while, he turned his head and said, "Dachun! Let's go back home!"
