Dressed as Su Peisheng

Kangxi 46 years

In early September, East Courtyard

Early in the morning, dark clouds covered half of the sky, and the air became more humid and dull.

Eunuch Su, who was lying on the bed, kicked off the quilt, and the hair behind his ears stuck to his neck in a mess, and his tired heart panicked.

"Boom..." A muffled thunder came from the sky.

Xiaoyingzi went into the bedroom with the water basin in his hand, seeing his master's bulging cheeks and frizzy braids, he reluctantly got up from the bed.

"My lord should be at the gate of the palace at this time." Xiaoyingzi put down the basin, moistened the cloth towel and helped Su Wei wash up, "I've been bored for a long time, and the rain probably won't stop for a while, Master, is he still going out?" ?”

Su Wei buried his face in the towel, took a few breaths, raised his head and said, "Wait a minute, if it clears up in the afternoon, go to Liulichang, Yin Shengrong's piano store will open soon."

Hearing this, Xiaoyingzi immediately had a bitter face, took two steps forward and tilted his neck, and said, "Master forgot all about the words of the prince again, that Yin Shengrong clearly has an impure mind. When we first meet, please invite Master to go with you." Xishan and Yuexia have a heart-to-heart talk and so on. In the past few months, I have been thinking of ways to get close to you, so you don’t send it up by yourself. The prince has already left the conversation before. If you have anything else, the apprentice will ask for it. It's a board!"

"I said how did I teach you such a timid and timid apprentice?" Su Wei turned around and put on his plain robe, and gave Xiaoyingzi a look of hatred, "If you weren't so talkative back then How could the lord know about Yin Shengrong? Now that everyone has set up camp in the capital, even if you don’t have to worry about him, you have to worry about shopkeeper Yu, right? Our salt business is still in the hands of others. Reciprocity is the foundation of business understand?"

Xiao Yingzi pursed her lips, lowered her head and handed Su Wei the boots, "Anyway, you are right, if the prince hits me later, you have to help me—"

"Okay, okay," Su Wei patted Xiaoyingzi's shoulder in a good mood, "Who would dare to hit you without your master speaking? Hurry up and open a small warehouse, and prepare a congratulatory gift for Yin Shengrong. Master will bring it to you in the afternoon." You go to Liulichang and have a good time."

"You still said that courteous reciprocity is the foundation of doing business. In fact, you want to go out to play." Xiaoyingzi pouted, lowered her head to straighten Su Wei's robe, and secretly slandered a few words in her heart.

At three o'clock, the palace

Lord Kangxi, who had just returned to Beijing for a few days, didn't seem to have much thought about dealing with the trivial matters of the court, and he only gave a few rough instructions in the early court before letting him go.

The fourth elder brother came out of the Qianqing Palace, and Malhan, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, rushed up, and cupped his hands at the fourth elder brother, "Long live just now praised the Enke matter for the prince's smooth handling, and the students from all state capitals have now successfully passed the exam. It can be seen , Lord Long Live recognizes the ability of the prince even more."

"My lord is serious," the fourth elder brother breathed a sigh of relief, "The crown prince accompanied the emperor Ama on his north tour, and the trivial matters in Beijing will naturally fall on our brothers. In the case of Enke, this king is also listed as a minister in the cabinet. Your Majesty will get it done. It doesn’t require much ability, and it doesn’t count as any credit, it’s just a duty that should be done.”

"My lord is too self-effacing," Malhan lowered his head slightly, "It's obvious to all that Long Live Lord attaches great importance to his lord. Now that there are a lot of things going on in Beijing, the impeachment of Tuoheqi and others by Lord Jingxi of Zhenguo has not yet come to fruition. The case of Nanshan Collection came out again. The Holy Majesty feels uneasy, the more he can share his worries at this time, the more beneficial he will be."

The fourth elder brother nodded in agreement, but before he could speak, the ninth elder brother Yinzhen and the tenth elder brother Yinhun passed by.

The two saluted the fourth elder brother perfunctorily, and then they left the Rijingmen together.

The fourth elder brother frowned slightly, and also stepped out of the threshold of the Rijingmen, but overheard Yin Hung complaining to Yinzhen, "I don't know why the myna met Huang Ama, I was thinking about going to the myna today." Let’s take a stroll in the new garden.”

Noon, Xipei Hospital

When Nian Shi entered Geng Shi's house, the fourth elder brother Hongshi was staggering and chasing the hydrangea bell in the mother's hand. The innocent laughter unique to children filled the warm room.

"Why is Fujin here at this time?" Seeing Nian, Geng quickly stood up from the couch, "It's still raining outside, Fujin isn't careful about himself."

Nian smiled and patted Geng's hand, and the two of them sat down on the couch again, "I'm thinking about Hongshi, and I can't sit still in the room. These days are hot and cold, and Hongshi's body is thin. I'm afraid he's going to get sick. It just so happens that some nutritious mountain delicacies are sent by the family, and I see that they are all delicious and easy to digest, so I rushed to bring them to you."

"Let Fang Fujin bother you," Geng squeezed the handkerchief to cover the corner of his mouth, "Hongshi always landed a little early, and his body has not been as strong as children of his age. Fortunately, he has taken care of him in every possible way this year, and now he has improved a bit. .Ci Fujin always takes care of Hongshi so much that I don't even know how to repay him."

"What are you talking about in return? Sister Geng is too out of touch." Nian pursed the corners of her lips, and her quiet eyes fell on the babbling Hongshi, "I really like this child, watching Hongshi bit by bit When I grow up, I feel that the life in the palace is somewhat hopeful. Otherwise, I will live day after day, and even the spring, summer, autumn and winter will not feel real. I just don’t know if my sister will be able to have such a blessing in her life. "

"Ci Fujin is still young," Geng handed over the hot tea brought by the maid, "My lord is usually too busy with political affairs to have time for the backyard. I'm not afraid that my lord won't see this child. of."

Nian smiled softly and sighed slowly, "I hope it's as my sister said, what else can my sister expect now?"

Geng Shi pursed her lips, thinking that the fourth elder brother who could not see anyone in the sky also frowned slightly, "Speaking of which, our prince is too pure-hearted and ascetic, and there is no girl to serve you in the East Courtyard, so why do you keep doing it all the time?" Why don't you come to the backyard? I heard that even at Fujin's place, the prince just sits and leaves occasionally. This man, no matter how calm he is, there will always be times when he can't control it? "

Nian's body shivered slightly, and after some inexplicable thoughts turned in his mind for a while, he forced a smile and said to Geng, "Maybe it's just like what my sister said, the prince is too busy. I heard from the servants in the front yard that , Wang Ye likes to read some scriptures and Buddhist books on weekdays, and I guess he is used to self-cultivation, so he doesn't worry about it anymore."

Geng thought for a while, and didn't think about anything else, and nodded with a smile.

Sunny after the rain, Liulichang

The signboard of Yinji Piano Shop has been hung under the eaves, and the pavement decoration is particularly elegant and quiet. Su Wei's carriage has just driven to the intersection, and the sound of the piano can already be heard.

"At the beginning when Yin Shengrong said that he was going to open a piano store in the capital, I thought it was just a joke." Su Wei opened the car window and looked out, "I didn't expect that after a few months, he actually opened it."

With a bitter face, Xiaoyingzi rubbed his cuffs, seeing that Yin Shengrong had come out from the shop, he quickly lowered his voice and said, "Let's leave quickly after giving the congratulatory gifts, Master, don't let him continue to chat endlessly. "

"Okay, don't be so long-winded," Su Wei turned his head and glared at Xiaoyingzi, got up and got off the carriage, "Congratulations, congratulations, Shengrong's shop is different from a distance, and it has a bit of a big hidden in the city. It’s a sense of calm. When it opens, it must be a place where literati and refined scholars flock to.”

Yin Shengrong smiled when he heard the words, and the red mole between his eyebrows became more conspicuous, "Brother Su still has eyesight, no better than those ordinary people in the capital, who think they have a lot of bad money, and wish to compare themselves to others everywhere. Shengrong's store is not welcome for idlers Well. Brother Su, if you have something to do, it’s better to come here a few more times.”

Xiao Yingzi pouted from behind, Su Wei pretended to laugh a few times, and hurriedly asked the guards to remove the gift from the car, "It's just a small gift, I hope Shengrong doesn't despise vulgarity."

"Brother Su?" Yin Shengrong welcomed Su Wei into the shop, gently caressed several brocade boxes with his white fingers, and looked at Su Wei as if with flames in his eyes. Sheng Rong likes the gift from Big Brother Su."

"Uh, Shengrong is too polite." Su Wei rubbed the goosebumps on his back invisibly, and smirked twice with a little embarrassment, "Just like it, just like it..."

In the evening, after finally getting away from Yin Shengrong, Xiao Yingzi who got into the carriage was almost crying.

"I said I wouldn't let Master come over, but Master wouldn't listen." Xiaoyingzi twitched and clutched Su Wei's sleeves, "If you say that Xiuxiang is a young deer who just fell in love, then Yin Shengrong is a thousand-year-old who eats people but doesn't spit out his bones." Fox. If he hadn't brought his guards with him today, he would have swallowed Master alive!"

"It's not that serious." Su Wei was also a little guilty. When Yin Shengrong took him to the tea room to listen to the piano in the afternoon, Zeng softly whispered in his ear, "Sheng Rong is not a ignorant person. If Brother Su is not good How could Shengrong be so obsessed with ordinary people like this? Now that Big Brother Su is doing things for noble people, he has to hide it, but it's just boring for a long time, isn't it boring?"

What he said made Su Wei frightened and terrified. Firstly, he was afraid that this person would find out his relationship with the fourth elder brother. Secondly, he was a standard straight man in the past, okay?

At the beginning of the colorful lanterns, the palace of Qianqing was not clean.

Lord Kangxi was sitting behind the dragon case, on which was the account book of letters between Suo'etu and many important ministers in the court, together with Tuo Heqi's recent frequent actions.The account of Zhen Guogong Jingxi's impeachment of Tuoheqi and several people who had many banquets during the funeral of King An was also found out.

The eighth elder brother stood in the middle of the room with his head bowed. He had been standing for a whole day from the early morning till now.

Seeing that the imperial meal on the table was cold again, Liang Jiugong had no choice but to hold the fly whisk tightly in his hand, and bravely stepped forward and said, "Long Live Lord, the key to the palace gate has been locked, or the servant will tidy up the side hall for you." Babele to stay for one night?"

"No need," the Long Live Lord who had been silent for a whole day finally opened his mouth, and the books on the table were closed one by one, "Lao Ba, go out of the palace, I'm tired too."

"Huang Ama!" Yinhu raised his head, did not see Lord Kangxi's wrath, did not hear any words from Lord Kangxi, just stood there for nothing for a whole day, and for the first time he lost his composure.

"Zhen, I'm tired..." Lord Kangxi stood up with the support of Liang Jiugong, without looking at Yinhu again, he turned and went directly to the bedroom.

At night, Xiao Yingzi, who had escaped a meal, got into the bed comfortably.

The front yard, which was still lit with candles, was not very peaceful, and the bed covered by the curtain was creaking and shaking.

Su Wei was pressed on a brocade quilt, naked in humiliation, with tears in the corners of his eyes, powerlessly letting the numbness on his back rush into his bone marrow.

The person on his body was still wearing pajamas, but the fine cotton cloth rubbed against the place where the two met, which was more abrasive than the raging hands on the waist.

"I, I don't want it anymore." Hearing the sound of clappers outside, Eunuch Su seemed to be grabbing a life-saving straw. With the last bit of strength, he twisted his body and crawled into the quilt, "You have to go to court tomorrow, don't bother gone."

"I don't mind making a fuss, what do you hate?" The fourth elder brother turned sideways and followed, turning his lower body to play tricks, "Or is there another beautiful woman to invite tomorrow? Let Grand Eunuch Su want to rest early and take care of himself." Recharge your batteries?"

"master--"

Su Wei, who was buried under the quilt, hadn't got the strength to speak when Zhang Bao's voice came from outside the door.

Being disturbed by someone, the fourth elder brother was very upset, frowned and said, "It's so late, what's the matter?"

Zhang Bao who was outside the door took a deep breath, scolded Zhang Qilin who was pretending to be dead a hundred times in his heart, and said in a low voice, "Return to the master, someone from Fujin sent news that Nianbian Fujin was ill, and tonight launched a High fever, I'm afraid I'll have to call the imperial physician overnight."
