Dressed as Su Peisheng

Kangxi 48 years

On the ninth day of the first lunar month, Xipei Hospital

At noon, Shiyue took Xu'er into Niu Hulu's courtyard with a food box.

The maid Mulan hurriedly raised the curtain of the back room for the two of them. Niu Hulu lazily sat up from the couch, patted her side and said, "Sister, come and sit down, I have hot soup here."

Shiyue smiled helplessly, took off the cloak on her body and said, "I'm still hot, and it's not cold outside, and you've been in the house for too long. Always use Mrs. Tang, you should be weak."

"Where can I go if I don't stay in the house," Niu Hulu leaned on the cushion, propping his forehead with one hand, "Is it just annoying to be in front of others? It's better to stay in my own yard, at least Can breathe for a few more years."

"You," Shiyue slapped Niu Hulu's face, then turned to look into the east chamber, "Where's Hongpan? Why haven't you seen him?"

"I went to the East Courtyard early in the morning, saying that I was punishing some copying with Eunuch Su." Niu Hulu raised his hand and rubbed his forehead, frowning slightly. He was still thinking about playing with Hong Yun."

"Children, there is no one who is not playful." Shiyue beckoned Xu'er to put the food box on the round table, "Fujin is a little stricter this time, but it is understandable. Brother Honghui went early , Fujin inevitably takes brother Hongyun more seriously. I said, don’t quarrel with Fujin just because of this, and just let Hongpan play with his younger brothers carefully in the future.”

"Be careful? Sister, like me, thinks things too simply," Niu Hulu sighed, "I've been thinking about Fujin's appearance that night almost every day these days. If it weren't for Eunuch Su The prince was brought here in time. If my child was not young and everything was safe and sound, I'm afraid that Hongpan and I would have blood spattered on the spot. Seeing this clearly, in the days to come, there will be more than just a "careful" Can it cover it all?"

Shiyue tensed up, and looked at Niu Hulu with some confusion, "Are you thinking too much? Hongpan and Hongyun are still young, and they have their own sons, so it's not easy to have another son. What's more, That night, the prince has already revealed Hong Yun's identity in public. Fujin is not a person who can't tolerate others, after this time, everyone will live in peace in the future."

"That's what my sister said," Niu Hulu slightly bent his lips, turned his head to look out the window, but a trace of unwillingness flashed in his eyes.

East courtyard

Two figures, one big and one small, sat side by side on the round table in the inner hall. Prince Yong, who was reading the memorial in the study, looked up from time to time, with a serious expression, but the corners of his eyes were slightly raised.

"Eunuch Su," Hong Pan frowned and poked Su Wei, pointing his fleshy fingers at the last two characters on the pen, "why does the name of this bird have so many strokes? Can I write it as a crow? "

"It's called a partridge, and the crow's strokes are not too short." Su Wei rolled up Hongpan's sleeves, "Besides, this is a poem written by a poet, and we can't change it casually."

"Then it was written by someone else, and I can't change it, why should I memorize it?" Hong Pan puffed up his cheeks, his face was as round as a ball.

"Well, as the saying goes, if you have read three hundred Tang poems by heart, you can chant poems even if you don't know how to compose them." Su Wei was very satisfied with his "eloquence" in educating his children.

"Then how much more do I need to memorize before I can sing?" Hong Pan picked up a piece of mung bean cake and stuffed it into his mouth, "Can Mr. Su know how to sing? Does he know how to recite poems so that he can be the champion?"

"This..." Su Wei scratched his forehead in distress, "I'm afraid it's not enough to be able to recite poems, and Mr. Su is too stupid, and he probably won't be the number one in the exam after memorizing a thousand more poems. You, Ama, know a lot, so go back and ask him. "

"En," Hong Pan nodded obediently, picked up another piece of shortbread and took a bite.

"Brother, are you hungry? This pastry is too dry." Su Wei picked up the teapot from the stove, "Can Eunuch Su make some cheese for you to drink?"

"it is good--"

Just as Hong Pan picked up his tea bowl, a dry cough came from behind him, "Ahem!"

One big and one small all had their hairs on end, hurriedly returned to their seats and sat down, buried their bodies and continued to write vigorously.

"Grandpa Su, how much have you written?" Hong Pan wrote a few strokes, and then asked under his breath.

"More than 60 times," Su Wei flexed his wrist, feeling a sense of accomplishment.

"Ah, I've only written it more than a dozen times." Hong Pan looked at his handwriting which became more and more crooked with a bitter face, "Will you be scolded by Ama for writing so ugly?"

"It's okay." Su Wei patted Hongpan's little head, "You write slowly, and when Eunuch Su finishes writing, I will help you write the rest."

In the evening, Baye Mansion

Liu He put a stack of pulse cases in front of the eighth elder brother, "Master Belle, all the medicines used by Fujin and the young masters in the backyard for the past two years are here."

The eighth elder brother picked up Fujin's pulse case and looked through it, his thick eyebrows gradually frowned, "Fujin has been taking birth control medicine for the past two years?"

"Yes," Liu He bowed slightly, "Fu Jin has been using various prescriptions to recuperate his body, but the three young masters in the backyard rarely use them."

The eighth elder brother slapped the pulse case in his hand on the table, with a cold expression, "Mr. Zhang has a previous crime, and Mr. Mao has offended Fujin, and has been living in seclusion, but Mr. Ulanara, who is always by my side. Mr. Look at her surprisingly sensible and quiet, she is not like Fujin who is shabby and jealous, nor does she pretend to be virtuous to push people in front of her master, she usually cares for Zhang's and Mao's children. But now it seems..."

"Lord Baylor," Liu He said in a low voice, "Fu Jin, Cian Fujin, and Zhang Xiaozhu were all involved in that incident. Now we can only find the main evidence from a few pulse records. But when it comes to committing crimes As for the motive, side Fujin is no less suspicious than Fujin."

The eighth elder brother put one hand on the table, and the veins on his forehead straightened up, "At the beginning, the master and Fujin used the Ulanara family to make the fourth brother contract the epidemic. Not long after, the Ulanara family's parents passed away one after another, and the fourth sister-in-law He even invited Fujin and Ulanara to come over the mansion. But in the end, Fujin and Ulanara came back safe and sound, and there was no other action from the fourth brother. I always thought that the fourth brother arrested If there is no evidence, the fourth sister-in-law is also afraid of implicating her mother's family, so she can only be dumb and eat coptis. But if the person who poisoned the master was really Ulanara, then the complacency of the master at that time is really a joke!"

Backyard of Baye Mansion

The little elder brother Hongwang was toddling on the thick felt, and Jiayi and Mrs. Zhang sat on both sides laughing and chatting from time to time.

The eighth elder brother walked all the way to the door, and the people in the room noticed something.

"Oh, why is Lord Belle here at this time?" Jiayi hurriedly stood up and went to greet her, "It's all because the servants are lazy, and Lord Belle came without notifying."

"My concubine pays my respects to Lord Belle," Zhang's face paled, and he blessed the eighth elder brother.

The eighth elder brother ignored Mrs. Zhang and walked straight into the inner hall.Jiayi frowned, and asked Mrs. Zhang to take Hongwang back first, and then she asked someone to fetch water and walked into the inner room.

"I've been busy all day, so I'm tired." Jiayi squatted in front of the eighth elder brother and took off the boots for the eighth elder brother, "The concubine got hot water for me, and the master soaked his feet to relieve fatigue. "

The eighth elder brother looked down at Jiayi, his eyes gradually turned cold.

"Master—" Jiayi wanted to say something, but suddenly a hand grabbed her neck.

"Master, concubine, concubine—" Jiayi's face flushed red, and she was soon speechless, and could only use both hands to pinch Eighth Brother's arm in vain.

"It's you," Eighth Brother leaned over and dragged Jiayi to his eyes, "You did it? Right?"

Jiayi was cold all over, she almost subconsciously avoided Eighth Brother's sharp eyes, trembling with fear.

"Master Baylor!" Xiuxiang, who was carrying hot water into the door, saw this scene, and rushed in in a panic, the wooden basin fell to the ground, and the hot water spilled everywhere.

"Lord Baylor, be merciful, Lord Baylor," Xiuxiang cried and rushed forward to save her master, but was kicked on the stomach by the eighth elder brother, "Master Baylor, Lord Baylor, please let go of my little master. After all, my young master is the side Fujin you invited, please be kind to Lord Belle..."

Seeing that Jiayi's face turned from red to white, and her struggling movements became weaker and weaker, Brother Ba finally clenched his lips and threw the person in his hand to the ground.

Jiayi fell under the table, and coughed out of breath, Xiuxiang quickly crawled over, helped Jiayi to smooth her chest.

The eighth elder brother glanced coldly at the master and servant on the ground, and walked out of the house.

"Little master," Xiuxiang sobbed and helped Jiayi stand up, and let her lie down on the couch, "Little master, how are you? Why is Master Belle so angry all of a sudden? Did Fujin say something to us again? "

Jiayi's face was pale and her eyes were in a daze. She was stunned for a long time when she heard Xiuxiang's words, and then she suddenly realized that her hoarse voice was full of uncontrollable fear, "He knows, he knows everything!"

At night, Prince Yong's Mansion

After seeing elder brother Hongpan off, Eunuch Su stretched his waist, kicked his boots, and lay down on his back directly on the couch.The fourth elder brother who was leaning on the couch reading a book was hit by someone's head.

"This copying is really not a human job. You are too cruel to be an Ama." Su Wei moved his sore wrist. He wrote it a hundred times by himself, and wrote it for Hongpan more than 60 times. The neck doesn't look like his own anymore.

"Hongpan isn't tired yet, who told someone to meddle in his own business?" Si elder brother moved his upper body and moved Su Wei's head to his lap.

"The child is too young, writing so many characters is not good for bone development," Su Wei patted the couch honestly with his sore hands, "Besides, what kind of Bodhisattva is carried by a four-year-old baby? When I was old, it would be great if I could read the moonlight in front of my bed."

"Bodhisattva is the name of the poem." The fourth elder brother picked up Su Wei's hand and gently squeezed it. "The name of this poem is Shu Jiangxi Stoma Wall. I have copied it so many times and still haven't remembered it!"

"I just can't remember it, I just can't remember it!" Mentioning the case of being punished, Su Wei became angry, "Brother Hongpan is right, why do I have to recite poems written by others? Besides, this poem is not practical at all, I have lived for more than 30 years and I don't know what a partridge looks like?"

"Master, you are such a mess, Hongpan and the others are all spoiled by you," the fourth elder brother knocked on Su Wei's forehead, "However, I see that Hongpan's spirit has recovered quite well in the past two days. I don't know what's going on with Hongyun, but Fujin is still staring at him, I'm most afraid that their brotherhood will become estranged."

"You also know how to maintain the relationship between brothers." Grand Duke Su rolled his eyes fairly, and angrily rolled half a circle on the fourth elder brother's lap, "The fourteenth elder brother has made a great contribution and came back, and you can't say a few nice words. They rushed to bring you so much donkey-hide gelatin."

"However, more than 70 pirates have been suppressed, and the old lair has not been found. What kind of great achievement is this?" The fourth elder brother opened his eyes and said in a cold voice, "It's just the old eight and his gang who are blindly supporting him. If he just indulges in this In that short-lived achievement, don’t think about having any great achievements in the future.”

Su Wei sighed helplessly, turned over, and pointed the back of his head at his fourth master. He really sympathized with those masters who taught the princes morality and etiquette. What are you talking about with these arrogant guys with their eyes above their heads? Brothers and friends are purely taking off their pants and farting!

next day, early morning

The Nian family and the Geng family came out of the Fujin courtyard hand in hand, Hong Yun elder brother was standing in the corner reciting the memorization, listening to the content was actually recited to Shi Ji.

"Oh, this Fujin is too strict in teaching children." Geng walked beside Nian, with a rather unbearable expression, "Hongshi is as old as Hongyun, and now he can't even speak a whole sentence. Don't Speaking of Shiji, I didn’t even teach him the thousand-character prose.”

"Pulling seedlings to encourage growth, painstaking efforts, and nothing to die," Nian shook his head lightly, "It is only natural that Fujin values ​​the prince's only son, but he should consider the child's ability to bear more. I looked at Hong Pan and Hong Shi That’s good, the children in our family are all smart, there’s nothing wrong with being enlightened later.”

Geng smiled and nodded, took off the veil to cover the corners of his lips, and finally blurted out, "I'm afraid that Fujin is not only worried about the honor of a legitimate son, the most noble of the Qing Dynasty My son, isn't he also ended up in the confinement of Xian'an Palace?"

East courtyard

Seeing that the sun was rising, Xiao Yingzi, who was lying at the door, heard his master singing and sighing three times.

"Master, you've woken up. I've heated up breakfast for six—" Xiaoyingzi who pushed the door and entered was sat on the bed. A father-in-law who was still in a daze after having a good time was stunned on the spot. Swallowed back into the stomach.

Su Wei lowered his head and looked at himself strangely. It's okay not to look at him.Not to mention the bruising marks on the chest, two spots are still suspiciously swollen, if it wasn't for his recently bulging stomach, he probably would have an A-cup.

For the sake of his fame, should he immediately turn around and die by hitting a pillar, or should he dissect Xiaoyingzi on the spot and bury his body in the backyard?

"Master," Xiaoyingzi took two steps back indiscriminately, put his head on the door frame and said, "Would you like to take a bath first, I'll ask the waiter to heat the water."

Forget it, such a useful apprentice, let's keep it for now.Grandpa Su, who regained his composure in a moment, wrapped his pajamas indifferently, and got off the bed tremblingly with the help of the bedposts, "I want to eat first, serve me two big bowls of egg porridge!"

By the time Su Wei finished his breakfast, took a shower, and was able to lift his legs and put on his boots smoothly, it was almost noon.

Walking out of the East Courtyard, just as Xiao Shuzi came back from the Main Courtyard, "Master!"

The corners of Su Wei's eyes twitched, he raised his hand and rubbed Xiao Shuzi's head, and led Ku Kui out of the garden, only to see Jia Jinlu standing beside the rockery.

"Master, did you come here specially to wait for me?" Su Wei stopped. Jia Jinlu was kind to him and promoted him. After entering the palace, he has been in charge of training the new eunuchs and has never caused any trouble for Su Wei.

"I came here with Xiaoshuzi," Jia Jinlu and Su Wei walked behind the carved door together, "I wondered if the new year is coming to an end, should we have a couple of young elder brothers to match people? a charter?"

"Brother Hongyun naturally needs to be more careful," Su Wei tapped his palms, "After I asked the prince later, the master took the little eunuchs to Fujin's place, and let Fujin and the young masters choose by themselves. "

"I think so too," Jia Jinlu frowned, glanced at Su Wei and whispered, "But others are easy to say, what should Xiao Shuzi do?"

Su Wei raised his head after hearing this, and Jia Jinlu continued, "Master has also heard about your sister. The little scholar often goes in and out of the East Courtyard, he loses face in front of the prince, and is Li Ying's apprentice. If we don’t deal with it, we won’t be able to explain it on the other side of the backyard.”

Isn't it?Su Wei rubbed his temples in distress, and sighed after a while, "Forget it, let Xiao Shuzi go with the other eunuchs, and whoever is assigned will be the one."

"Master!" While speaking, Xiaoyingzi ran over.

Jia Jinlu nodded, and left first, Xiaoyingzi looked around, leaned up to Su Wei and said, "Ping'an Noodle Shop sent a messenger, saying that Miss Xiuxiang is anxious to see you."

Su Wei frowned and said, "Usually we send people to pass the message, how did you find the palace today? What if someone finds out."

"I also find it strange." Xiaoyingzi scratched the back of her head impatiently, "But it is indeed the guy from Ping'an Noodle Restaurant, who has been entangled with the guards at the door for a long time, saying that Miss Xiuxiang is in a hurry and must see you as soon as possible .”

"What can be so urgent?" Su Wei turned his hands away, lowered his head and thought for a moment, and suddenly got startled in his mind, "It's too bad, I'm afraid something will happen!"
