Kangxi 48 years

On the first day of December, Baye Mansion

In the courtyard of the little master Jiayi, Su Wei stepped forward with a smile, "May I ask this lord, who is his name, and what is his official position?"

"What's our commander's name? Is it your turn to ask an eunuch?" A guard with a big arm and a round waist took a step forward and said in a rough voice.

Su Wei frowned, and Commander Liang on the opposite side had already shouted the guard away, turned his head and cupped his hands at Su Wei, "Liang Yi, a second-class guard, a fourth-rank official, temporarily serving as the guard commander of Baylor Mansion. He comes from a rough background and doesn't know how to speak properly, please don't take offense, Eunuch Su."

Su Wei raised his eyebrows with surprise in his eyes, "You know me?"

Liang Yi laughed, "Eunuch Su's name, everyone in the capital doesn't know it. I followed Lord Belle into the palace in a humble position, and met Eunuch Su several times."

"Our family recognizes Ihazi, the chief of ceremonies of the Eighth Master's Mansion, but I don't have any impression of Commander Liang," Su Wei smiled gently, speaking casually, but it made the faces of several people who followed Liang Yi change.

Liang Yi himself didn't seem to care much, "Ihazi mostly follows Lord Baylor, and his humble job is mainly to guard the safety of Baylor's mansion."

"Oh, no wonder," Eunuch Su smiled softly, and the face of the guard who had just yelled at him turned pale.

"Since this is the case, then our family should ask Commander Liang for advice." Su Wei stopped in a circle with his hands behind his back, raised his head and looked at Liang Yi, "What mistake did our princess' personal maid make, Commander Liang?" Do you want to embarrass a girl like this?"

Liang Yi lowered his eyebrows, pondered for a while, and smiled at Su Wei, "Grandpa Su may have misunderstood, how dare you embarrass the princess's servants in a lowly position? It's just that we are ordered to protect the safety of Fang Fujin, and according to the rules, everyone enters and exits this courtyard." All the people who are here have to ask a few simple words. This is where the responsibility lies, and this offends the girl."

"Oh?" Su Wei raised his eyebrows and narrowed his eyes, "Why is there such a strict defense in this prince's mansion? Could it be—"

Su Wei's voice paused, and when he spoke again, his face was serious, "The illness of our concubine's niece is actually something else?"

"Eunuch Su's words are wrong." Liang Yi did not show any guilt, but pursed his lips into a smile, "This is Babeile's mansion, and the person living in this house is Lord Beile's side Fujin. Before he got married, he was indeed the princess niece, but now, Chu Fujin is a member of the Baylor Mansion."

Liang Yi glanced at the eloquent Eunuch Su, and there was a touch of temptation in his words, "Master Baylor is only worried about the body of Fujin, and the lowly officials also follow the rules. What's more, Eunuch Su thinks that the dignified Baylor mansion's back house What could be wrong?"

"Our family is just talking casually," Su Wei pulled the corners of his lips, "Ba Ye's family is simple, and Ba Fujin is a rare shrewd person. I don't think there will be any dirty things like jealousy?"

Liang Yi invisibly breathed a sigh of relief, and lowered his head, "Don't worry, Mr. Su, Lord Belle always loves Fujin the most..."

"That's good." The person in front of him was a smart man, but also a courageous one. With just a few words, he blamed Jiayi's affairs on the troubles of the women in the back house, and he was not afraid of offending Fujin at all.

Su Wei didn't want to expose Xiuxiang, so he simply acquiesced, turned his head and glanced at Shujin, and said, "Since it's a simple question, Commander Liang should ask it here. Our family has to take Shujin back quickly, and the princess can return it to me." Worried about it."

Liang Yi's eyes fell on Shujin, but his expression didn't relax, "I'm asking questions here, I'm afraid I'll disturb Fang Fujin's rest, why don't Mr. Lao Su and Miss Shujin go with Beizhi, and Xiaozhi will send you two back soon." Huage."

"Commander Liang," Feng Jinchao lowered his voice and walked up to Liang Yi, "Isn't that bad? They came with Princess Yong. If you make things difficult, isn't it blatantly embarrassing Fujin?"

Liang Yi glanced at Feng Jinchao, ignored him completely, and continued to look at Su Peisheng, "What do you think, Mr. Su?"

Su Wei glanced outside the courtyard, straightened his sleeves and said, "Since Commander Liang has said so, it's not easy for our family to refuse, so let's go with Commander Liang."

"Thank you, Eunuch Su," Liang Yi waved his hand, and Su Wei walked out of Jiayi's yard with his head held high.

"Commander?" The burly bodyguard came to Liang Yi's side just now.

Liang Yi glanced in the direction of the lotus pond in the distance, and stretched out his hand to wipe lightly on his neck!The guard bowed his head and stepped back.

Shujin followed behind Su Wei, feeling very uneasy, "Eunuch Su..."

"Don't worry," Su Wei curled his lips and walked swaggeringly, looking unsuspecting.

A group of people left Jiayi's small courtyard, bypassed the flower pavilion, and walked up a chasing corridor.

Not far away is the Moon Cave Gate leading to Hechi, and several guards following Liang Yi began to approach Su Wei and Shujin!

"Su Peisheng!"

A clear and pleasant voice sounded, and Mo Yaqi and Ilha came through the moon cave gate with a string of maidservants.

"My servant greets you two!" Su Wei bowed and saluted.

Shujin's eyes lit up, and followed Yifu.

Liang Yi didn't care about being surprised, he took a few steps back and bowed with the guards.

The two Gege ignored the group of guards, and went straight to Su Wei and Shujin, "Where are you two hiding to be lazy and slippery? You dare to run around in other people's houses. I think you are all skinny." !"

"Oh, this slave is wronged." Su Wei wrinkled his face, took a few steps forward, pointed back at Liang Yi and said, "Gege Mingjian, it's the commander-in-chief who insists on taking two slaves with him." Go ask questions! You said, the servant and Shujin were ordered to visit the side Fujin for the princess, what is there to ask! But no matter what the servant says, they just won’t let go, and the servant can’t help it, right?”

Seeing Grandpa Su who turned his face faster than flipping a book, Commander Liang, who has always been calm, didn't react for a long time.

Mo Yaqi, on the other hand, acted like he didn't want to pay any attention to it. He didn't even glance at Liang Yi, and led Yi Erha to walk forward, "Emiang is waiting for your reply, hurry up!"

"Hey," Su Weili responded, and followed Shujin behind the two princesses with his head buried.

A group of guards didn't know what to do for a while, Liang Yi was always worried about Shujin who entered Jiayi's room, and finally bit the bullet and stopped Mo Yaqi, "Please forgive me, I'll pay you back—"

"presumptuous!"

Mo Yaqi's face turned cold, and Liang Yi was not sure to finish speaking, "What is your identity? How dare you stop Ben Gege!"

Grand Duke Su hurriedly leaned over to Da Gege, "Return to Gege, this man is a second-class guard, a fourth-rank military officer, and he looks after the backyard of Baylor Mansion!"

Liang Yi's complexion changed, and the demeanor he had been trying to maintain was faltering in an instant.

Mo Yaqi smiled softly, and his attitude couldn't be more arrogant, "A mere fourth-rank military officer brazenly detains the slaves of our palace. Bengege doesn't want to argue with you, but you made an inch of it and stepped on Bengege's head!"

"Forgive me, I have absolutely no intention of disobeying Ge Ge," Liang Yi leaned over and cupped his hands, "It's just that I was ordered to protect the safety of Fang Fujin. According to the rules, I should ask Miss Shujin a few words, and it won't waste too much time. Lord Gege, please have a lot of questions, I will definitely apologize to the princess after asking."

Mo Yaqi raised her eyebrows, and looked at Liang Yi with a look of surprise, "You mean, Ben Gege can't take these two slaves away today?"

Liang Yi froze for a moment, and pursed his lips lightly.

Yilha laughed at the side, looking more like a young girl, "What a big joke, do we two sisters need to reason with your slaves? I don't care about the rules , today we are going to take Eunuch Su away! If you have the guts, stop him and try!"

Liang Yi also didn't expect that a few words of arguing with him would actually arouse the aggressive temperament of these two princesses.He always thought that Ge Ge from Prince Yong's Mansion would be gentle, dignified, virtuous and virtuous.

Mo Yaqi also didn't care about the angry guards who had to shrink back, and walked directly to Liang Yi, Liang Yi had to take two steps back and hang down.

"As a slave, it is a good thing to obey the rules." Mo Yaqi put his hands together in front of him, looked forward, and his posture was grand, "However, it is not enough to serve the royal family just to know how to obey the rules."

Liang Yi didn't dare to respond, Mo Yaqi turned his head and glanced at him, his tone was slightly cold, "Besides the rules, you also have to know how to be respectful!"

Liang Yi bowed his head, and Mo Yaqi smiled softly, "Ben Gege is the daughter of Prince Yong, and she is of the orthodox royal blood. Let alone you, a small fourth-rank military officer, in our palace, even the first-class guards of the third rank have not dared to come You are showing off in front of me! It is the eighth uncle who treats his subordinates leniently, otherwise, based on your actions today, Ben Gege would have killed you long ago!"

Liang Yi also shuddered, feeling ashamed to be bluffed by two young girls.But these two girls are really the jewels in Prince Yong's palm. Thinking of that stern-faced prince, Liang Yi doesn't feel that the big Ge Ge's words are too exaggerated.

Mo Yaqi ignored the group of guards, supported by the maid, and together with Ilha, took Su Wei and Shujin calmly to the garden.

"Commander, what should we do?" Several guards couldn't help worrying. If Lord Belle knew that people from Prince Yong's mansion had entered the room of the Fujin and walked out intact, they might lose their heads. up.

"What can we do?" Liang Yi frowned, "Can you go and snatch him back?"

No one dared to answer, Liang Yi let out a breath slowly, "Fortunately, there is a woman who follows that girl the whole time, and there should be no small tricks for Fang Fujin! What happened today, I went to the yard to say hello, and you all just pretended nothing happened Pass!"

"Yes," several guards responded, but they were still a little worried, "But, if Fujin told Lord Belle first..."

"Let's just say that the girl just asked a few words outside the window." Liang Yi's face darkened, and he looked at the back of the group walking away, but his eyes were quite playful, "Su Peisheng, you really deserve your reputation..."

A group of people walked to the vicinity of Huage, and Shujin followed the two princesses to answer the conversation.

Zhang Qilin slipped out of the grass, patted his chest and said, "But I was scared. Fortunately, Feng Jinchao secretly pointed out the way, so I was able to take the two Gege to the lotus pond first. Why, they really want to kill people in broad daylight Shut up?"

"What do you think?" Su Wei snorted coldly, "For such a big matter, with Brother Yiba's temper, he would rather kill three thousand by mistake than let one go. I didn't alarm him today, otherwise, even if If two Gege come forward, Shujin and I are afraid that we will have a narrow escape."

"Since you know it's dangerous, why do you have to come here?" Zhang Qilin looked incomprehensible, only feeling a headache.

"Don't underestimate the little master Jiayi's pawn," Su Wei glanced at Zhang Qilin, "If necessary, it might be able to turn things around."

Eunuch Zhang "cut" and followed Su Wei back to Huage.

After noon, everyone was ready to leave.

Si Fujin didn't want to stay for a long time, so he took the two Ge Ge back to Prince Yong's mansion first.

After entering the mansion, Fujin called Su Wei to his side, "Did you get the news? How is it?"

Su Wei pursed his lips, pondered for a moment, and nodded to Fujin.

Fujin's face turned pale, and he almost couldn't stand up.

Shu Jin hurriedly supported her. Su Wei knew what Fujin was worried about, and said in a low voice, "Master Jiayi's parents have passed away. If Fujin is worried about her natal family, just keep her family away from Baye's house. But this is a big deal. But little, without complete evidence, Fujin must never disclose it to others."

"I understand the seriousness of the matter," Fujin collected himself, "You go and report to the prince."

"Yes," Su Wei bowed and bowed to leave.

In the evening, East Courtyard

After hearing what happened, the fourth elder brother was abnormally silent.

Su Wei leaned forward and sat next to the fourth elder brother, "I always thought that the eighth elder brother should be somewhat arrogant despite his deep scheming and vicious methods. I didn't expect that he could really do such a thing!"

"It involves a dispute over military power," the fourth elder brother knocked on the kang table. "Looking at the eagerness of the eighth brother, he must have repeatedly hit the wall when he infiltrated the border. He has already disregarded his face and identity. At this time, as long as he is given a child, how old is it?" He can bear the humiliation."

Su Wei snorted, took a piece of biscuit from the table and ate it by himself.

The fourth elder brother squinted and looked over, Grandpa Su rubbed his back and said, "What are you doing again? Let me tell you, I have no money in my shop!"

The fourth elder brother hooked his mouth, wrapped his long arms around, and pulled him into his arms, "This king is also strange. How can Grandpa Su find beauties in his arms wherever he goes?"

Su Wei was stunned, and then realized, "You mean Xiuxiang? Zhang Qilin, that big traitor!"

"It's rare to have a few loyal people by my side," the fourth elder brother said in a cool tone, "I don't know if it's because the rewards are less than usual, and everyone dares to lie."

"Who lied to you, didn't you all read the handkerchief I gave her last time—" Eunuch Su, who was belatedly aware of it, saw Prince Yong who instantly turned into a black-faced Duke Bao, raised his hand and gave himself a small slap, telling you Mouth!

The fourth elder brother snorted coldly, kicked off the kang table and lay down on the couch.

Eunuch Su hurriedly pulled the blanket over, lay down next to the fourth elder brother, touched the fourth elder brother's chest for a while, and took out a handkerchief.

After using it for a year, the embroidery threads were all worn out. Su Wei smacked his lips, raised his head and looked at the fourth elder brother and said, "I'll embroider another one for you later, you—"

The fourth elder brother lowered his eyes, and Su Wei put a sticker on the person again, "Can you return the 5000 taels to me?"

On the fourth day of December, the governor's office in Sichuan

Nian Gengyao, who came back from abroad, saw the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi, E Hai, who was sitting in the main hall.

"Master Nian is very polite," E Hai put his hand on the table, his tone was meaningful, "The governor knows that Mr. Nian has been very busy recently, and he is afraid that you don't have time to take care of Sichuan government affairs, so he came here to visit."

"Thank you, Governor, for your concern," Nian Gengyao said in a calm tone, neither humble nor overbearing, "with the help of colleagues, the people in Sichuan are also rich and safe, and there is no official business piled up in the yamen. Please rest assured, Governor."

"Really?" E Hai raised his brows, "But how did the governor hear that Mr. Nian forced grain requisition, which caused public resentment and the common people complained?"

"There is absolutely no compulsory collection of grain by the government. The treasury is filled with grain, and it is purchased at the market price. Your Excellency must have misunderstood it," Nian Gengyao replied calmly.

E Hai chuckled, and put a memorial on the table, "The Governor has already written the memorial, and many local officials in Sichuan have reported to the Governor that Governor Nian disregarded the people's livelihood, and collected grain at a low price in the name of supplementing the grain. , leading to complaints from the common people. Now, there is a war at the border. If the people are uneasy, wouldn’t it be worse for the court? The governor advises Governor Nian that in the future, it is better to look at yourself and think about the future!"
