Dressed as Su Peisheng

Kangxi 49 years

july fourteen

When Su Wei finally saw the Qi Xi'er that everyone was talking about, he realized why Zhang Qilin and Xiao Erge were so uneasy.

"Qi Xi'er has met several father-in-laws." The people inside the door seemed a little flustered, and their movements were a little stiff when they stepped out of the threshold, but they couldn't stop the brilliance and charm of that exceptionally handsome face at all.

This person should definitely not be a eunuch, with such a face, he should not be accepted in the cleansing scene.However, he actually stood in front of everyone, and he also carried the special identity of Liang Jiugong's godson.

Su Wei was a little dazed, not only because of Liang Jiugong's ulterior motives, but also because the facial features and gentle temperament of the person in front of him reminded him unconsciously of an old man who had passed away for many years.

"Eunuch Su? Eunuch Su!"

Xiao Erge stabbed Su Wei who was in a daze, Su Wei suddenly came back to his senses, heaved a sigh of relief, waved at Qi Xi'er, and said, "Go with our family for a walk, we have something to ask you."

"Yes," Qi Xi'er bowed cautiously, but she didn't hold back her relationship with Liang Jiugong at all, she followed Su Wei to the East Garden with her head down.

Along the way, many people's eyes fell on Qi Xi'er's face, but because Grandpa Su was nearby, no one dared to approach her.Qi Xi'er lowered her head lower and lower, and when she entered the gate of the East Garden, her hat almost fell off.

Su Wei turned his head to look at him, coughed lightly and said, "How old are you this year?"

"Seventeen," Qi Xi'er's voice was very youthful, and it was almost impossible to tell that she was cleansed.

"At what age did you enter the palace?" Su Wei continued to ask.

"13 years old," Qi Xi'er secretly raised her eyes to look at Su Wei, just in time to meet Su Wei's sight, then quickly lowered her head.

"Who sent you into the palace?"

"My uncle," Qi Xi'er didn't know what to think of, her eyes were a little red, "My parents have both passed away. I came to Beijing to join my uncle. He bandaged people to stop bleeding in the cleansing room and knew many people. I followed He did chores in the body washroom for a while, and then he was sent to the palace..."

Su Wei was silent for a moment, and he already had a general outline in his mind, "Since you entered the palace, where have you worked as a servant, have you served any master?"

"In Shou'an Palace, I was only with two old eunuchs, and never served the master," Qi Xi'er replied carefully, her voice was filled with embarrassment.

"How did you and Eunuch Liang meet?" Su Wei raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Godfather came to Shouan Palace for business, and I found some old books for him." Qi Xi'er lowered her head and touched the blue robe she was wearing, which was made of a much better material than others, "Godfather said that I was destined to be with him, so he accepted me as a godfather." son……"

Su Wei pursed his lips, several guesses flashed through his mind one by one, Qi Xi'er stood aside for a long time, finally couldn't help raising his head slightly, and asked in a low voice, "Are you Su Peisheng, Eunuch Su?"

Su Wei turned to look at him and nodded, "You know me?"

"I heard my godfather mentioned you. In the Shou'an Palace, several old father-in-laws often talked about you." Qi Xi'er clenched her hands together and swallowed hard, "Qi Xi'er is born with a stupid mind, and there is no What rules have you learned, if you make a mistake in the future..."

"Don't worry," Su Wei chuckled lightly, and put his hand on Qi Xi'er's shoulder, "Eunuch Liang's face is full, how many people in the capital dare not buy it, our family will naturally take good care of you."

Qi Xi'er's body froze suddenly, and before she could remove the slightly forceful hand on her shoulder, a human voice suddenly sounded from behind!

"You just came back at this time, why are you still standing here?"

No obvious emotion could be heard in the deep voice, but Qi Xi'er's heart began to beat wildly. When she lowered her head, she could only see the black shadow imprinted by her feet, and her knees suddenly gave way.

Su Wei was taken aback by Qi Xi'er's plop on his knees, turned around to meet the fourth elder brother who had just come out of the East courtyard, bowed slightly and said, "Greetings to the master, the respect room has sent a newcomer, and the slave is bringing People are familiar with each other in the yard."

The fourth elder brother frowned slightly, glanced at the person kneeling on the ground, and said in a slightly dissatisfied tone, "Let's leave this kind of thing to others, and go back to the house with the master!"

"Yes, yes," Su Wei agreed with a smile, and walked to the fourth elder brother in a few steps.

The fourth elder brother glared at him angrily, and when he was about to turn around, he remembered that there was another kneeling on the ground, "What's your name?"

"Slave Qi Xi'er," Qi Xi'er's breath began to rush, her body stiffened into a ball.

"Raise your head," said the fourth elder brother in a very light tone.

Qi Xi'er, who was lying on the ground, slowly clenched her fists, her body was slightly straightened, and the last ray of the evening sun was reflected on her gradually raised face.

Su Wei heard clearly that Fu Nai, who had been by the fourth prince's side all the time, gasped suddenly.

The fourth elder brother didn't say anything, didn't even yell, turned around and left.

…………

After the afterglow of the evening dissipated, the candles exploded in the inner hall of the main room of the East Courtyard, making a crackling sound.

The fourth elder brother sat leaning against the side of the couch, holding the scroll in his hand, and seemed to be very absorbed in reading it.

Su Wei sat on the side of the couch, knocking a plate of sunflower seeds out of boredom, finally couldn't help it, and rubbed his foot on Brother Si's leg, "What do you think of that Qixier?"

"What's the matter..." The fourth elder brother's gaze still stopped on the page in his hand.

Su Wei got impatient and grabbed the book, "Don't pretend to be confused with me, I don't believe you have no idea at all!"

"What ideas do you want?" The fourth elder brother raised his head, "A certain person doesn't go back to his house at night, and leads them to wander around the garden, and then comes back to ask me what I think?"

Su Wei stared blankly for a long time, but somehow felt a little guilty, "I, I have something to ask, let's say—"

Grandpa Su suddenly stopped when he thought of something, and immediately became annoyed, "Oh, that's not right, the person is clearly here for you. Besides, I'm a eunuch, what can I think?"

"You're here to make fun of me, aren't you?" Su Wei crossed his arms around his chest and raised his chin, "Even Fu Nai almost lost control today, I'm not exaggerating, Qi Xi'er's pretty face is a joke It’s not too much to offend everyone, right?”

"pretty?"

The fourth elder brother frowned, looked the person in front of him up and down, pondered for a long time, and finally shook his head silently, "I didn't see it."

"how is this possible?"

The corner of Su Wei's mouth twitched, and he waved his hand disapprovingly, but halfway through the wave he suddenly realized something, "You really don't think he looks good?"

The fourth elder brother shook his head calmly.

Grandpa Su panicked. He bit his finger and desperately recalled the past few decades. His prince grew up from a small bean to a tall man. It seemed that apart from him, he really didn't show any appreciation for any beautiful people or things. manner.

He still remembered that when Song Shi, Li Shi, and Fujin married into Zhengsan Institute successively, what the fourth elder brother discussed with him was always these people's attitudes in dealing with the world, and the thoughts and desires behind them, never talking about beauty or ugliness.

It's over, Eunuch Su, who has always claimed to be an excellent trainer, deeply realized at this moment that the fourth elder brother, who he worked so hard to grow up with, may suffer from serious aesthetic defects!

"I'm afraid it's because of the rumors I passed on to Wan Xiang before." The fourth elder brother pulled the book back from Su Wei's hand, turning a blind eye to the inexplicable sadness in Grandpa Su's eyes. go back."

"Anyway, he's Eunuch Liang's godson," Su Wei sniffled his nose twice, his tone a little listless.

"I don't need to buy a eunuch's account," the fourth elder brother opened the book again, "Because he helped us before, I don't care about this matter with him. You tell him and let him put his mind to it." Go to the right place!"

Su Wei pursed his lips and leaned against the fourth elder brother's legs, "At first I didn't really want to keep this person, but seeing him today, I suddenly had a thought..."

The fourth elder brother suddenly raised his head, his eyes were as cold as ice.

"Hey, that's not the idea!" Su Wei slapped the fourth elder brother unbearably, "Did you see what he looks like today? Don't you think he looks like a person?"

"Who do you look like?" Brother Si's voice was still a little dull.

Su Wei flicked his hand on the fourth elder brother's leg, "Like the one from Yuqing Palace before, the crown prince's Haha bead, Fucha Dezhu!"

The fourth elder brother was stunned for a moment, and he didn't speak for a long time. Su Wei continued, "I asked him today, he is a palace that has advanced for four years. Counting the days, it is the year when the prince came back to govern! "

The fourth elder brother lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then slowly shook his head, "Even so, it's just a useless chess game, what's the use of keeping him?"

"It depends on whose hands it is to use or not. Wasn't Jiayi also a useless chess back then?" Su Wei leaned on his chin and thought for a while, "The people who picked him at the beginning now see him enter. Is it possible that Prince Yong's Mansion is indifferent? Besides, Liang Jiugong can't do things so simple. Right now, I'm very curious about that Qi Xi'er."

The next day, something strange happened in Prince Yong's mansion. Grandpa Su, the most embarrassing figure in front of the fourth elder brother, finally accepted his second apprentice after 18 years after Li Ying.

Respect room

Su Wei accompanied the fourth elder brother into the palace early in the morning, and took time to visit the respect room.

Liu Baoqing welcomed Su Wei into his room, closed the door carefully, took out a few sheets of paper from a pile of accounts, and handed them to Su Wei, "Time is tight, and the investigation is not detailed. Most of the people you picked were clean, and nothing wrong with them was found."

"It's scary if there's no problem," Su Wei flipped through it, raised his head and asked, "Where's that Qixi'er? How much do you know about him?"

"I only saw him once, and he came with Eunuch Liang," Liu Baoqing suppressed his voice, "Many people in the palace rumored that he was a plaything raised by Liang Jiugong in private. But I checked the records of his entry into the palace, and he was clean." Clean, after entering the palace, he has been staying in Shou'an Palace. People like Liang Jiugong, if they really want to play, they can't be so absurd, Shou'an Palace is the former residence of the Empress Dowager Xiaokang."

Su Wei frowned slightly, and when he wanted to ask again, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door.

"Eunuch Liu, the medicinal materials sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs have arrived," a young eunuch knocked on the door and said.

"Let Zhang Hai take someone to the Royal Pharmacy," Liu Baoqing ordered.

Su Wei turned to ask, "Who is sick in the palace?"

"It's the current Empress Dowager." Liu Baoqing sat back in front of Su Wei, "I've been ill for a while. I heard Xiao Anzi from the Imperial Hospital say that I'm afraid I won't be able to survive this summer."
