Dressed as Su Peisheng

Kangxi 49 years

February [-]th, Prince Yong's Mansion

Fujin was leaning on the couch in his own bedroom, while Hongyun was reading outside, with a childish voice, reciting obscure ancient prose with style.

Shujin hurriedly stepped into the door, bowed to Hongyun, and went straight into the bedroom, "Fu Jin, there is news from the Eighth Master's Mansion."

Fujin, whose eyes were slightly closed, opened them suddenly, Shujin took two steps forward, and said in a low voice, "Miss Jiayi is indeed happy, and it has been more than a month."

Fujin was dazed for a while, and a little dizzy, Shujin hurriedly helped her to sit up slowly, "Eunuch Su was right that day, what she did has nothing to do with Fujin. Anyway, our Ulanara family and She has nothing to do with her anymore, so Fujin doesn't have to worry too much."

"Although she is incompetent, there is still a layer of blood." Fujin sighed softly, "I was the one who decided to send her into the Eighth Lord's Mansion. I have to bear some responsibility for her later things. Now that I think about it, maybe When she caused the prince to contract the epidemic, she should have been sent away directly, so as not to end up with a heinous crime that might leave her relatives behind."

"It shouldn't involve too much, right?" Shujin rubbed Fujin's temples, "Aren't Miss Jiayi's Ama and Erniang not here?"

"Confusing the blood of the royal family is not an ordinary crime." Fujin lowered his head slightly, "If the incident happens, I'm afraid the eighth elder brother will put all the crimes on Jiayi, and how to deal with it at that time depends on the officials in the palace." attitude."

"Then," Shujin hesitated for a moment, looked up at Fujin and said, "Master, do you want to talk to the family first?"

Fujin gave a slight pause to the hand caressing his nails, "Time is fate. At this time, I can't take such a big risk. Everything must be based on the future of Prince Yong's Mansion."

Shujin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, lowered his head and said, "Is it because the servants are stupid, or because Fujin thinks well."

Fujin didn't speak any more, just quietly looked outside the door, where Brother Hongyun's reading sound continued...

the next day, early in the morning

A simple carriage was parked at the side gate of Prince Yong's Mansion, and standing beside the carriage was Dai Duo, a scholar in green robes.

Since Dai Duo was frightened by Xiaoyingzi's medicine once, he changed his previous publicity and did some clerical errands in the palace, keeping a low profile for several years.

Now, the prince suddenly ordered Dai Duo to be transferred to the south of the Yangtze River to serve as the county magistrate of Tonglu County.

"Mr. Dai," Fu Nai came out from the courtyard gate, and Dai Duo hurriedly bowed his hands in salute.

"Mr. Dai is polite." Fu Nai handed Dai Duo a small package, "The prince has always valued Mr. Dai's knowledge and ability. I hope that Mr. Dai will take advantage of this opportunity and not let the prince down."

"Yes, yes," Dai Duo nodded again and again, and then asked cautiously, "Does your lord have anything to say?"

"My lord doesn't have any special orders," Fu Nai curled his lips, "I just hope that Mr. Dai can listen and watch more, and do more for the common people."

Dai Duo pondered for a while, then bowed his body and said, "Dai Duo understands, and I will definitely live up to the lord's appreciation."

East courtyard

The fourth elder brother was propping his head on his side, looking at the person next to his pillow who was so asleep that he didn't know what Jinxi was.

Grandpa Su smacked his lips from time to time, and he didn't have the slightest intention to get up to serve others.

The fourth elder brother looked at it for a while, leaned over his head, and took a bite on the man's chin.

"Well," a certain person was suffering from pain, opened his eyes in a daze, and saw the person on his body smiling maliciously, got up and angrily pushed him away, turned over and hugged the pillow and continued to sleep.

"Let's go into the palace with my master today," the fourth elder brother sat up, and slapped Su Wei's butt regardless of severity.

Su Wei woke up completely with an "Ouch", and the fourth elder brother remembered that he was still "injured".

"Does it hurt?" The fourth elder brother wanted to lift the quilt to have a look, but was held down by Grand Duke Su angrily.

"It won't be a good thing as soon as I enter the palace with you. The carriage has just been repaired. You should let me stay at home." Su Weifu lay back on the pillow again, "Curry is going to bottom out, and I have to find a way to get money out Woolen cloth."

"Okay, don't dare to delay Su Caidong's earning money." The fourth elder brother rubbed Su Wei through the quilt, "The 5 taels you just received, are you going to use it?"

"What!"

Grandpa Su turned over and sat up, "Didn't you just withdraw 1 taels? Where did it go?"

The fourth elder brother looked innocent, "You must be rewarded for doing things. Only when the rewards and punishments are clear will people respect you. Besides, it is time for Fu Ning'an to use money at the frontier. Otherwise, the current military camp is already old There are eight worlds."

"So," Su Caidong looked desperate, "Am I going to fight against the Cao and Li families who hold weaving and salt transport envoys? The eighth elder brother has inexhaustible treasures, and I only have a few A dry shop!"

"Master's money is a little tight recently, there's nothing I can do about it," the fourth elder brother stretched out his hand to touch Su Wei's face, "You asked for money back then, but I even gave you the account book, so you can't cross the river and tear down the bridge."

"Come on," Su Wei curled his lips, "How many copies did you have at that time, pretend I don't know?"

"But it's all gone now," said the fourth elder brother with a sincere face, "There is no way, the master wants to expand his power, no matter what he does or who he wins over, money is indispensable."

Grandpa Su clutched his chest, feeling a dull pain in his chest, "I'll give you 3 taels, save some for me, and I'll buy more. I'll make it up for you when I get the bill back."

"Okay," the fourth elder brother patted Eunuch Su on the shoulder readily, "I will ask Zhang Bao to pick up the bank notes later, so you can sleep a little longer."

"How can I still sleep..." Su Wei lay on his back with a look of lovelessness.

After breakfast, Su Wei was staring at the ledger in a daze, Zhang Qilin walked in tiptoe, "Grandpa Su?"

"What are you doing?" Su Wei replied boredly, with one hand still supporting his chin.

"That," Zhang Qilin rubbed his hands together, "The cashier asked me to ask you, how many summer clothes should you make this year?"

Su Wei frowned, "How do I know this, go ask Fujin, and do as in previous years."

"But," Zhang Qilin hesitated for a moment, Su Wei suddenly had a bad premonition.

"The money on the books seems to be not enough," Zhang Qilin grinned, "The harvest in Zhuangzi is not good this year, and the prince didn't take any money from the mansion, so..."

Ji Sheng Tang

Su Dacaidong stared blankly at the only 1 taels of silver bills left on the table, and Du Hong sat opposite him, not daring to stretch out his hand.

"The rich don't need to worry too much about it. This money is spent after earning it."

Thinking that there are still several batches of raw silk waiting to be paid, shopkeeper Du resolutely overcomes his fear and grabs the bank note, "Don't worry, the rich man, I will write to my family and ask them to send the money. We have been in Mongolia for the past two years. The income is getting better and better every year.”

"Far water can't quench near thirst." Su Wei rubbed his forehead and leaned on the table, "Brother Wang said before he left that the caravan would expand further, I didn't expect it to be so tight this year. "

"It's normal for this business to be closed for a while," Du Hong moved forward, "Otherwise, let's find someone to borrow it first, and then collect the account. How can we survive this period of time?" .”

"It's the only way to do it now," Su Dacaidong sighed, "I never thought that I, Su Peisheng, who has ruled the capital for so many years, end up managing people to borrow money!"

"Who wants to borrow money?" A chuckle came from the door.

The people in the room looked over, and Yin Shengrong walked in slowly.

"Why are you here?" Su Wei pouted, "Your piano shop seems to be very busy."

"Hey, Caidong," Du Hong whispered to Su Wei, "Master Yin's piano shop is very famous in Beijing now, and many dignitaries like to go there."

Su Wei snorted, and Yin Shengrong walked up to him with his chin raised, "I'm here to introduce you to business, maybe I can help you solve your urgent needs. However, if you don't want to—"

"what business?"

Shopkeeper Du who was on the sidelines was very amazed at the speed of Su Dacaidong's face change. Now he is holding tea and obediently pinching his shoulders.

"For you to be sensible," Yin Shengrong raised the corner of his mouth, "Speaking of which, I guess only you dare to accept this business."

"Oh?" Su Wei blinked, "What business?"

Yin Shengrong turned his head and said in a meaningful tone, "Business in the palace..."

mid february

The weather is getting warmer and Junggar has not changed yet, but the border has entered a state of alert.

At this moment, Fei Yanggu, the right guard general at the border, suddenly came forward. Due to the relapse of his old illness, he was unable to deal with matters and was afraid of delaying the military situation, so he asked for his dismissal.

Long live the Lord agreed, and ordered the right guard and other soldiers to be handed over to Qi Lide, the minister of Sanzhi, and Geler, the forehead, for joint management.

Originally, this could only be regarded as an ordinary military transfer.However, the last sentence of Lord Long Live in the imperial decree caused waves in the hearts of the princes and officials.

Lord Kangxi clearly said that when the army marched in, he would send another general to give him a seal.

Xian'an Palace

When Li Jiashi walked into the study with a tea bowl, the second elder brother was standing behind the desk practicing calligraphy.

This time, the second elder brother's health has improved a lot, he is no longer as weak and sick as before, and he seems to be more energetic.

Li Jiashi was very pleased, even though this small world was extremely narrow and cramped, in the end, they didn't really push them to a dead end.

"呲-"

An inexplicable sound made Li Jiashi startled, and she walked quickly to the table, only to see a slit in the big characters.

"This paper," Li Jiashi raised his hand to touch it, and his eyes turned red.

"It's okay." Yinfeng smiled gently, and pressed his slender fingers on the opening, barely filling in the last stroke, "It's because I wrote too hard."

Li Jiashi pursed her lips, avoiding the old writing brush on purpose, and forced the corners of her mouth to bend, "Drink a bowl of tea, sir. It was brought by Hongxi. He knows you like to drink new tea, so he just won the reward." It was delivered by someone."

"Don't let Hong Xi think about me all the time," Yin Reng wiped his hands with a cloth towel, picked up the tea bowl and smelled the tea, "It's good for him to live comfortably, let someone tell him that we don't lack anything here."

"Don't worry, Lord, I have already explained it," Li Jiashi smiled, "It's just that the child has always been filial, and it's just his heart to give you a can of tea."

The second elder brother pursed his lips and nodded, lowered his head and took a sip of tea, "Has Fujin's body improved these days? Has the imperial physician visited again?"

"I've seen it," Li Jiashi said gently. After living together in Xian'an Palace for so long, the gap between her and Fujin Shishi has gradually disappeared. "Fujin's body is weak, and the imperial doctor prescribed some medicine Medicine, I see that people are much more energetic in the past few days. When the weather gets warmer, it will probably be fine."

"That's good," Yinfeng drank a bowl of tea and walked slowly to the window, "It's almost spring again, I don't know when the first rain will fall..."
