Dressed as Su Peisheng

Kangxi 45 years

Early December, Ping An Noodle House

An honest young man, covered in flour, opened the curtain of the back kitchen, and said to the woman sitting in the corner, "Sister, benefactor is here."

Xiuxiang hurriedly got up, and said deeply to the two who entered after her, "I have seen Eunuch Su and Eunuch Li."

"Girl, you're welcome." Su Wei took off the mink cap on his head, revealing big round and deep eyes, and smiled brightly at Xiuxiang, "Miss has been working hard these days."

"I don't dare," Xiu Xiang took a step back, lowered her head, her ears were slightly rosy.The demeanor of this Eunuch Su is really quite different from those eunuchs in the Eighth Master's Mansion who are either low-browed, hunched over, or domineering, using their master's status to play prestige.Sometimes, Xiuxiang would mistakenly think that she was talking to a well-educated nobleman, and couldn't help feeling ashamed.

Li Ying glanced at the little girl who was springing up, curled her lips secretly, stretched out her hand to open the bench for her master, picked up the warm hat that was casually thrown on the table, and dusted it off.

Su Wei didn't pay attention to Xiuxiang's expression, leaned over to sit down, rubbed his back waist, waved to Xiuxiang, and said, "You sit down too, this is at your house, there's nothing to be cautious about."

Xiuxiang pursed her lips, looked up at Su Wei, and sat down gently on the other side of the square table without any refusal, "Thank you, Eunuch Su, for helping my brother open this noodle restaurant. Otherwise, just rely on my little monthly rule, I can’t even afford my nephew’s school fees.”

Su Wei bent his lips, and put one hand on the table, "I promised you this, so there is nothing to thank. Your nephew has the ambition of scientific research, so don't delay your child's future. I will meet you later." When the caravan you know comes, I will send your nephew south. He is a scholar with many literati in the south of the Yangtze River, so he may not be able to find a good teacher. On the contrary, he is in the middle of the capital, so he is easy to attract attention."

"Your servant understands," Xiu Xiang nodded repeatedly, "My servant will never cause trouble for Eunuch Su, and Eunuch Su is in charge of everything."

Su Wei nodded with a smile, pondered for a moment and said, "I accepted your message, Babeile really didn't suspect Little Master Jiayi?"

"No," Xiu Xiang hurriedly shook her head, "In the past few days, Lord Belle's attitude towards the young master has changed a lot. He not only allowed us to move the yard, but also rewarded us with a lot of gold, silver and jewelry. Instead, it was Fujin's place. I heard it was my natal uncle. Seriously ill, I went back to the Prince's Mansion in Anjun, and haven't seen anyone since."

Su Wei pursed his lips, and his slightly deep gaze slowly scanned the coral beads on Xiuxiang's wrist.

Xiuxiang trembled, took off the bracelet, put it on the table, and said tentatively, "Grandpa Su, our little master has not been suspected, so he will definitely not confess to Mr. Su by committing suicide. This bracelet, slave girl When it's useless—"

Su Wei smiled softly, and pushed the bracelet back in front of Xiuxiang, "Don't be afraid, this is just a way to be prepared. Now, the little master Jiayi can be valued by Lord Belle, and she will compete with the eight blessings in the future , for our family, there is a lot of benefit and no harm, and I will never let a good girl die. However, Babeile is not a simple character—"

Su Wei raised the corners of his lips slightly, narrowed his eyes slightly, and Xiao Yingzi, who was standing beside him in a cold sweat, felt very familiar with his expression.

"Master Jiayi's status is embarrassing, and she has offended Bafujin again. At this time, she must not relax her vigilance because of the temporary victory," Su Wei continued, "If that Zhang family is really pregnant with a child, it will be useful. Yes. With her help, you and the young master will not be alone."

"However," Xiu Xiang hesitated, "it's a fact that Mrs. Zhang injured Lord Belle's body. Even if she is pregnant, she may die after she is pregnant in October."

"This depends on the little master's means. When a person's life and death are at stake, he will be much more courageous, let alone a person who is going to be a mother." Su Wei paused, and suddenly asked, "Babeile's How did your body hurt? How effective was the medicine?"

Xiuxiang pursed her lips, and said in a low voice, "I heard from the young master that Lord Baylor just hurt his energy, and he can recover with a little recuperation. I don't know if the medicine came in from the outside, and the medicine is not strong enough. , it doesn't seem to be working."

Su Wei frowned, exchanged glances with Xiaoyingzi, turned to Xiuxiang and said, "Master Jiayi's status has just started to stabilize, so it's not too hasty. Just help me keep an eye on the backyard of Baye Mansion, what's the matter?" , come to Ping An Noodle Shop to leave a message. I will take care of your family."

"Yes, thank you, Eunuch Su," Xiu Xiang stood up, and bowed to Su Weifu again.

Su Wei waved his hand without further delay, took the hat from Xiao Yingzi, and the two left the Ping An Noodle Shop one after the other.

"Sister," the strong man lifted the curtain and entered the back kitchen when he saw people walking away, "Will it be dangerous for you to help your benefactor in the Eighth Master's Mansion like this?"

Xiuxiang glanced at her brother, lowered her head, and said nothing.

The strong man wiped his hands on the apron in embarrassment, walked up to Xiuxiang and said, "If there is danger, we will not do it. Your nephew can read whatever you want. Don't be sour because of your sister-in-law. If so, put yourself in."

Xiuxiang shook her head, put the coral bracelet on the table back on her wrist, and stroked the beads lightly with her fingers, "Brother thinks things are too simple. From the beginning, I have no choice. If If it wasn't Eunuch Su, my little master and I would have been a handful of loess long ago..."

Baye Mansion

After Liu He had diagnosed the eighth elder brother's pulse, he prescribed a new prescription for Xiao Rongzi.

Brother Ba was sitting on the soft couch, seeing Liu He lowered his head, he lowered his voice and said, "Master's health has not improved, how sure are you?"

Liu He froze, and hurriedly knelt down and said, "Lord Baylor, forgive me, it's because this medicine is too overbearing. It's easy to remove the drug's properties, but if Lord Baylor's body is to be recuperated, I'm afraid it will take years and months—"

"Bastard!" The eighth elder brother swept the medicine bowl with one hand, his eyes were tearing, "The years and months? Do you want Lord Ben Belle to spend the rest of your life with you!"

"I don't dare," Liu He kowtowed repeatedly, "I have little knowledge, and I don't know much about poisons. Fortunately, I have two teachers who work in the Imperial Hospital. It's better for me—"

"No," Brother Eight interrupted Liu He sharply, "If I can call the imperial physician, why should I use you? I must not reveal half of my illness!"

"Your servant understands," Liu He's eyes moved, "How about this, I will ask other patients to go to the Imperial Hospital for consultation, so that no one will suspect Lord Baylor."

The eighth elder brother pursed his lips, thought for a moment, then turned his head and told Xiao Rongzi, "Find someone with a clean foundation and use up the rest of the medicine powder. The people in Tai Hospital are all good people, so you must not be careless. "

"Yes," Xiao Rongzi leaned over to accept the order, and sent Liu He out of the main hall.

Prince Yong's Mansion

Ding Qi, who was dressed in an official uniform, was led to the East Courtyard, where the fourth elder brother leaned on the soft couch with a lazy expression.

"My humble minister pays homage to the lord," Ding Qi put down the medicine box, and gave the fourth elder brother a well-behaved courtier's gift.

The fourth elder brother curled up his lips and smiled, and put the ancient book in his hand aside, "I have heard from Su Peisheng and the others that you did a good job in the imperial hospital, and I did not misunderstand the person at the beginning."

"My lord's absurd praise," Ding Qi cupped his hands, "This minister can be what he is today, thanks to his promotion. No matter what the future of my minister is, I will never forget the kindness of Prince Yong's residence."

The fourth elder brother nodded, sat upright, and put his wrist on the tea table, "Take the pulse of the master, after the last serious illness, the master always feels tired."

"Yes," Ding Qi hurriedly opened the medicine box, took out the wrist pillow, put Si elder brother's hand on it, and asked for his pulse carefully.

After a stick of incense, Ding Qi leaned down, "My lord has suffered a serious illness, and has lost some vitality, and needs nourishment for a while. I will prescribe a few more medicinal meals for my lord. The so-called medicine tonic is not as good as food tonic, nourishing from the root, Only then can the sickness be completely dispelled.”

The fourth elder brother nodded slightly, watched Ding Qi take out a pen and paper to write a prescription, hesitated for a moment and said, "I have one more thing to ask you, if this man hurts his descendants, is there a way to recover?"

Ding Qi was slightly taken aback, looked up at the fourth elder brother, then hurriedly lowered his head and said, "Report to the lord, whether this can be recovered depends on the severity of the injury, how long the injury was, and how the injury was done."

The fourth elder brother pursed his lips, and frowned slightly, "It was a small injury, like that of eunuchs, but it was not so thorough, and it grew a little later, but it was not as capable as a normal man."

"This," Ding Qi thought for a while, "if it was injured at a young age, it may be difficult to recover. Moreover, the human body has a balance of yin and yang over time. If you store yang arbitrarily, the balance will be broken, and your lifespan may be shortened. "

"It's actually like this..." Fourth elder brother pondered for a moment, then raised his head and said to Ding Qi, "I'm just asking casually about today's matter, don't mention it to others."

"I understand," Ding Qi bowed his head and cupped his hands.

In the evening, there was a strange silence in the study of the East Courtyard.

Su Wei held his mink fur hat and stood in front of the fourth elder brother's desk.The fourth elder brother held the tea bowl in one hand, and the tea he just drank was in his mouth, and he didn't swallow it for a long time.

Xiao Yingzi waited for a long time, but did not see any reaction from the fourth elder brother to his master's great feat, so he couldn't help poking out half of his head behind Su Wei curiously.

Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, Grandpa Su, who had experienced many battles, squatted directly on the ground, and the fourth elder brother spurted out a sip of tea, pouring Xiaoyingzi a heart-warming cold.

There was a burst of earth-shattering laughter in the room, and Zhang Bao, who was standing next to the bookshelf, silently led Xiao Yingzi, who was still dripping with tea, back outside the door.

Su Wei was quite embarrassed by the laughter. He shook his hat and scratched the back of his head and said, "What are you laughing at? I've been planning carefully for so long, and you won't be surprised!"

"Grandpa, grandpa is pleasantly surprised, ahaha..." The fourth elder brother laughed out of breath, "This king's Eunuch Su is really amazing..."

Su Wei curled his lips, moved to the side of the fourth elder brother step by step, and said slightly aggrieved, "But I missed a move, and the medicine was not strong enough, so it didn't have much effect."

"That's enough," the fourth elder brother managed to hold back his smile, patted Su Wei's buttocks and said, "If it really doesn't work, according to Lao Ba's temperament, he will definitely not leave Mrs. Zhang behind for a child who hasn't seen her yet." , and will never promote the Ulanara family so quickly. Even if he suspects the Eight Fortunes, he can admit another side Fujin into the mansion to fight against the Eight Fortunes. Promote a Ulanara who is also suspected, but It's because I don't want to make any more troubles. So, Master Ju reckons that your medicine may really work. "
