Dressed as Su Peisheng

Kangxi 49 years

end of july

The empress dowager's condition is getting worse, and the emperor is also physically weak these days, often with swollen insteps and mental fatigue.

The situation at the border cannot be compromised, the elder brothers all live in the palace, and the fourth elder brother is so busy that he never touches the ground.Some papers sent by the border, Kangxi Lord only glanced at them and handed them to the fourth elder brother.

The eighth elder brother is still imprisoned in the mansion, and Prince Yong's position in the court has gradually become different.

However, it would be too early to say that the reserve position has been determined.Many ministers looked at the fourteenth elder brother who was always by Lord Kangxi's side, and they were a little vague.

Yonghe Palace

Qing Ju carried a bowl of blood swallow lotus root into Concubine De's bedroom lightly. Concubine De had just woken up from a nap at noon, and was helped by the maid to get up, and took the bird's nest that Qing Ju handed over.

"This is newly sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the ones left for our palace are the largest ones. The little eunuch who went to fetch the things said that everyone in the Yifei Palace is about to turn their eyes to the sky."

"Just a few cups of bird's nest, and don't let the ones below show it around," said Concubine De, leaning on the soft pillow, her well-conditioned body still not showing signs of aging, "You can ask someone to stew a few more cups later, and give some to Yinzhen and Yinti go."

"Yes," Qingju replied with a smile, shaking a small fan and sitting on the side of the soft couch, "These days the empress often attends the sick in the Ningshou Palace, and she is also thin. If you want the servants to tell me, it is better to send the four blessings and ten blessings as soon as possible. Summon all the four Fujin into the palace, and they can help the empress to some extent."

"Don't worry, there are so many people in the palace, the servants will come here," Concubine De raised her head slightly, and let out a soft breath, "I heard that the Ministry of Rites has already prepared birthday materials, and it probably won't take long."

"Your Majesty, do you feel sorry for your daughter-in-law?" Qingju smiled connivingly, "If it weren't for the bad times right now, I should have brought the little masters into the palace to make it lively. Now that the capital is full, who would Is there a concubine consummated?"

There was something in Qingju's words, Concubine De raised her head, and nodded her with her hand, Qingju still just smiled.

"What is consummation..." Concubine De turned her head to look out of the window, the smile on her face slowly disappeared, "I am really walking on the edge of the knife now, if any step goes wrong, this knife can't say no." It's about to cut my heart!"

At noon, Shen Xingsi

No matter how many times Su Wei has been here, as soon as he entered the dark door, he felt chills all over unconsciously.

Jiao Jinchao trotted out to meet Su Wei, and when he saw Su Wei, he slapped Su Wei with a powerful vajra palm, staggering Su Wei, "You don't show loyalty, you kid, it's been a long time since I came to see my brother."

"Your shitty place, I only want to come here when my skin itches," Su Wei followed Jiao Jinchao into the door, before his feet landed, he heard a scream.

"Oh, I'm used to it." Jiao Jin turned his head and smiled at Su Wei, "If no one is howling in my ear, I probably won't be able to sleep at night."

Su Wei grinned, and entered Jiao Jinchao's hut, Jiao Jinchao closed the door, and poured him a bowl of herbal tea, "The matter you asked me to investigate has some clues, it's really thanks to the fact that I have locked up a few old men in a dark cell." , There is nothing big or small in the palace that they don't know about."

"How to say?" Su Wei slowly sipped the tea bowl.

"It's almost as you guessed." Jiao Jinchao sat across from Su Wei, "Qi Xi'er was asked to enter the palace by an old eunuch in the palace. The eunuch's surname was Guo, he was very old, and he used to serve Empress Xiaocheng Renxian. It's just that this old eunuch Guo passed away not long after Qi Xi'er entered the palace. According to those old people, this matter was originally very secretive. Arranged the person into the Shouan Palace, only the chief manager of the body purification factory knew that he wanted the person. Those old oily people also had no intention of listening to the manager's slip of the tongue when they were eating, drinking and making jokes."

Su Wei frowned. He originally wanted to find out who was behind Qi Xi'er, but now the clue came to an old eunuch, "Does that old eunuch know anyone else? Where was he before he died?" Errand?"

"In the imperial garden, I manage a group of poor envoys." Jiao Jinchao seemed to know what Su Wei was going to ask, lowered his voice and approached him and said, "Although the old eunuch is dead, I have also found out some clues." He was close to Yikun Palace during his lifetime, and it seems that Concubine Yi was helped by him when she first entered the palace, and she has always taken good care of this old eunuch Guo."

"Empress Yifei?" Su Wei's heart became brighter now, since Yikun Palace was involved, he might be inseparable from Brother Nine.

When the prince came back to manage the government, he found a man who was five or six points like De Zhu to enter the palace. There was almost no need to guess what he wanted to do.I'm afraid that before this plan could be carried out, it was delayed by a series of accidents, the crown prince was completely abolished, and Qi Xi'er became an outcast.

"However, no matter who this Qi Xi'er belongs to," Jiao Jinchao thought for a while, "it's not a good thing to put his face anywhere. If Liang Jiugong hadn't protected him these few years, there might have been a big trouble The trouble is coming. I don’t know what Liang Jiugong’s plan is at the moment, but he sent people under your nose.”

"Don't worry, I know some details, I can figure it out anyway," Su Wei leaned back in the chair and rubbed his temples. Although he still couldn't guess Liang Jiugong's intentions, according to Qi Xi'er's complicated Identity background is not just a gift or a temptation.Su Wei is not afraid of complicated things, what he is afraid of is precisely the simplest reason.

evening,

Su Wei accompanied the fourth elder brother to sleep in the side hall of Qianqing Palace. Because they were in the palace, the two of them did not dare to be too presumptuous.Su Wei pulled the thick bedding and slept on the ottoman in front of the fourth elder brother's bed. Fortunately, it was not cold in the summer.

The fourth elder brother stared at the top of the bed tent, unable to close his eyes all the time.

Su Wei listened to the uneven breathing of the fourth elder brother, stretched out a hand from under the bed, got into the bed of the fourth elder brother, and was grabbed by the fourth elder brother with a chuckle.

"Don't pick me up again, I'm in the mood, but I don't care if it's in the palace or not."

Su Wei snorted, and wanted to withdraw his hand, but was firmly held by the fourth elder brother.

"I've been busy all day during the day, so don't think about it at night. Isn't it just a matter of border control? It's not that I can't afford it. What's there to worry about?"

"I'm not worried about border issues." The fourth elder brother rubbed Su Wei's hand, touching every finger along the familiar lines, "I'm worried about Huang Ama, you didn't see it today, Huang Ama Ma could barely walk, her body was swollen very badly. The imperial physician took the pulse and prescribed medicine, but he opened and closed his mouth but was still vague. Seeing Huang Ama's appearance, I didn't seem to have any interest in asking questions."

"Grandpa Long live is over half a hundred years old, and he has to deal with a lot of things every day. It is certain that his body will not be able to bear it," Su Wei said, inevitably thinking of Lord Yongzheng in history, and he began to feel uncomfortable, "If you want me to say, what is there to be an emperor? So tired, and accidentally got a bad name."

The fourth elder brother smiled softly, and squeezed Su Wei's hand vigorously, "Then if everyone doesn't become the emperor, the world will not be in chaos? No matter how tired you are, someone has to take care of it. The Tian family can enjoy the wealth of the world. Naturally We must also be responsible for the people of the world.”

Su Wei curled his lips, and after thinking for a long time, he was still unconvinced, "Anyway, no matter what, you can't ignore your body in the future. If you get tired and sick because of those messy things, I won't serve you!"

"It's against you?"

The fourth elder brother half propped himself up and leaned out of the bed, reaching out to pinch Su Wei's face, but Su Wei blocked him.The two laughed and played around for a while, before going to sleep in the middle of the night outside.

The next day, another big event happened in the court.

In the Qianqing palace, the fourth elder brother picked up the booklet that Lord Kangxi had thrown on the ground, and looked worriedly at the Lord Long Live who had calmed down for a long time.

"Send it to the cabinet for disposal," Lord Kangxi raised his finger trembling slightly, "and the secret note sent by Wang Zhen before, send it back together!"

"Huang Ama calm down, my son will do it now," the fourth elder brother bowed his hands and bid farewell. When he went out, he saw that Kangxi's face had returned to a little rosy, and he was a little relieved.

Chen Jiayou and other eight censors went up together and openly asked for the establishment of the crown prince. Lord Kangxi was furious, and sent it to the cabinet meeting office together with the secret memorial made by the academician Wang Jie earlier about the establishment of the crown prince.

The ministers of the court were also confused for a moment, and many people asked about Prince Yong's intentions, and the fourth elder brother simply threw his hands away and left on the grounds that his status was inconvenient.

The fact that Li Chu is too sensitive, especially when the eighth elder brother was imprisoned and Prince Yong became the only one.

It just so happens that things are going on in Chaozhong Palace right now, and the fourth elder brother can't even go back to the mansion to avoid the limelight.Su Wei was wandering around the room, worried for the fourth elder brother, the little eunuch outside came to the door and said that someone wanted to see him.

Su Wei felt it was strange, and followed the little eunuch out of the Rijing Gate, but he turned out to be a familiar face.

"Young one, pay respects to Eunuch Su." The person who came to see her was also a young eunuch. The last time Su Wei saw him, he was looking for an imperial doctor for Fujin in Xian'an Palace.

Xian'an Palace?

For some reason, Su Wei felt inexplicably uncomfortable, but he suddenly felt that he and the fourth elder brother seemed to be involved a little too much with Xian'an Palace recently.

"Did you come to our house for something?" Su Wei called up the little eunuch and looked at his face carefully.

"Yes, yes," the little eunuch shrank his neck, "I can't think of any other way. I suddenly heard that the prince and Eunuch Su are in the palace, so I have the courage to come here..."

"Did something happen to Xian'an Palace?" Su Wei asked with a frown.

"No, it's not an accident," the little eunuch rubbed his hands, "Er Fujin's body has recovered well recently, but he just needs nourishment. But, in Xian'an Palace..."

Before the little eunuch finished speaking, Su Wei understood that the second elder brother was deposed and imprisoned in the deep palace for a long time, so the people in the House of Internal Affairs naturally wouldn't care much about it.Now that Er Fujin has been ill for a long time, the Xian'an Palace may have already been stretched out just by relying on that little statute.

"Don't worry, our family will report to the prince." Su Wei said.

The little eunuch's eyes lit up, and he bowed to Su Wei several times in a row, "Thank you, Eunuch Su, thank you, Eunuch Su!"

"Forget it, forget it," Su Wei turned around and wanted to leave, but when he was about to step forward, he suddenly remembered something, "By the way, what's your name?"
