Chapter 449 Where Does the Lard Come From?

Kangxi 49 years

the eighth day of december

"Go water-"

The little eunuch who didn't know what to do shouted from Yanqing Hall to Huifeng Pavilion along the gravel road outside Yuhua Pavilion.

The monks in the Yuhua Pavilion didn't know whether to go to fight the fire or chant scriptures first.

Brother Nine looked at the roof of Yanqing Palace with black smoke from a distance, his heart felt as if it had fallen on a hot iron, and he felt uncomfortable no matter how he turned it over.

"Brother, do you think Fourth Brother and the others will—"

Brother Nine didn't finish speaking, when he turned to look at Brother Eight, he suddenly found that the veins on Brother Eight's forehead protruded, and his face was very scary.

"Brother, what's wrong with you?"

The eighth elder brother clacked the wine pot with one hand, and the fire seemed to be reflected in the protruding pupils, "It's him, it must be him again!"

Yanqing Palace

The water dragon team that rushed to put out the fire failed to enter the yard, and several teams of guards had firmly secured the inside and outside of the yard, and no one was allowed to enter.

"Cough cough cough..."

"Cough cough..."

Among the few people in the side hall, except for Qiu Hai who escaped, the other three were choked by the smoke.

Su Wei, who had been smoked for the second time, was very tenacious this time. While swallowing the medicinal soup for clearing the lungs, he struggled and said to the fourth elder brother, "I, cough cough, if I knew that you arranged someone, I would Don't fire that shot."

"It's not the master's person," the fourth elder brother suppressed the discomfort in his throat, "it's Huang Ama's person, this is the Forbidden City after all..."

Su Wei stretched his neck and looked out, but there were a few guards in the courtyard who were always in front of the imperial court.

"Report to the lord," the imperial guard Ao Ge walked into the house, leaned over to the fourth elder brother and said, "The fire has been extinguished, and the house is not damaged too much. The five assassins were all poisoned earlier in the morning, and they are all dead now. "

The fourth elder brother was not too surprised, he waved his hands and said, "Go and report to Huang Ama, Huang Ama will decide how to investigate."

"Yes, I will leave a team of guards to patrol outside, please rest assured, my lord," said Aoge, cupping his hands.

That night, Qianqing Palace

The fourth elder brother faced the saint for the first time since he was imprisoned in the Yanqing Palace.Unfortunately, it was not to excuse himself, but to almost catch fire.

"In less than a month, the palace caught fire twice!"

Lord Kangxi wandered around the room with his hands behind his back, "Do you all think that you were wrongly locked up? Do you all think that I dare not punish you again?"

The fourth elder brother lowered his head, "Huang Ama, my son didn't set the fire on purpose, it was because he was too flustered when facing the assassin and overturned the candlestick to start the fire."

"Knock over the candlestick?"

Master Kangxi walked up to the fourth elder brother in a few steps and looked down at him, "The candlesticks in Yanqing Palace are filled with lard? All the guards could smell the smell of lard all over the floor! You still told me it was a candlestick!" Do you want me to punish you for the crime of deceiving the king?"

"Huang Ama forgive me," the fourth elder brother knelt down, but felt a little helpless in his heart. He didn't lie on purpose, it was really——

"The lard was poured by the servants at the door, just to delay the time. The servants didn't know that there were Huang Ama's guards nearby. Unexpectedly, the candlestick at the back knocked over and directly ignited the assassin's clothes. There's a fire..."

"Hmph, you will adapt to the circumstances," Master Kangxi's words seemed to be squeezed through the gap between his teeth.

"I won't ask you why there is lard in Yanqing Palace where you are asked to cultivate your body and mind..."

The fourth elder brother lowered his head again, not daring to say a word.

"I'll just ask you, who do you think is planning to assassinate you this time?"

The fourth elder brother was silent for a moment, and spit out two words, "Yinhu..."

Yanqing Palace

Su Wei was very worried about the fourth elder brother who was sent to Qianqing Palace alone. Although his throat was still hurting, he didn't care about catching the cold, so he just stood on the porch and looked at the courtyard door.

"Don't worry, our lord is the victim. No matter how suspicious Long Live Lord is, can he still be punished?" Zhang Bao walked out of the room and put a robe on Su Wei.

"I'm not worried that Long Live Lord still has doubts, I'm just afraid that the matter of our arson will be blamed on the master."

"Hey, you set the fire, not us!"

Regarding this matter, Zhang Bao firmly maintained the attitude of his brothers to settle accounts clearly.

"I didn't mean to..."

"Actually, I'm also very curious," Zhang Bao thought for a while, "That Jia Hong has already stepped on lard and fell to the ground, you just need to shoot down the one who enters the house with a musket, why are you still beating Jia Hong?" ?”

"It's easy for you to say," Grandpa Su became angry when he mentioned this matter, "I don't have time to practice guns recently, and my technique is cold! In such an emergency situation, I must choose the best one to shoot. The lying on the ground Yes, it's bigger than a standing target."

"But you still missed the shot. If you hit the clothes directly, there wouldn't be such big sparks. You hit the ground, and then you wiped out the fire, which ignited the lard and the ground all over the place." Jia Hong's clothes."

"I just said that I can't do it recently." Su Wei was very aggrieved, very aggrieved, "The same goes for Jia Hong, who has no common sense of life. You are on fire, and you can just roll on the spot. He just got up and was full Running in the yard, why can't it be so smokey? It has attracted the water dragon team. In fact, except for that piece of floor tiles, nothing is burning."

"That's right," Zhang Bao looked at the sky speechlessly, "When the guards came in, the room smelled of lard residue. I don't know if those in front of the imperial court would report it like the Long Live Lord."

"It's a waste of my lard, I still want to eat fried rice..."

Su Wei gathered his robe and continued to stare at the closed courtyard door.

Qianqing Palace

The fourth elder brother knelt on the ground for a stick of incense, his legs were a little numb.

Only then did Lord Kangxi put his hands behind his back, and said, "Since you haven't burned the entire Yanqing Palace yet, you can go back and live in peace!"

"Put away your crooked thoughts, don't come out until the beginning of spring!"

"Yes," the fourth elder brother leaned down, as long as you don't ask him where the lard comes from, you can live until Lichun.

"Also," Master Kangxi walked back to the fourth elder brother, "I will ask Aoge to enclose the third floor and the outer three floors of Yanqing Hall, and all your food will be delivered from here. Don't let me find out anything else Little trick, not to mention lard, sesame oil is not allowed, you understand?"

"Yes," the fourth elder brother also felt that he had never been obedient before, and there was no rebellious thought in his heart.

Finally, Lord Kangxi was satisfied with this son who said what he said, and finally gave Ding Qi the will to allow Ding Qi to enter and leave the Yanqing Hall freely, so that he could diagnose the peace pulse of the fourth elder brother.

"I hope that you are not fooling around in Yanqing Palace, and you can truly understand my painstaking efforts, so that your two months of practice will not be in vain."

"Yes……"

The next day, Yonghe Palace

Qingju walked into the inner hall quickly, Concubine De quickly stood up, "How is the fourth child? Is he injured?"

"No, empress, don't worry." Qing Ju hurriedly supported Concubine De to sit down, "My lord was summoned by the emperor to Qianqing Palace last night, everyone is fine, nothing happened."

"Where are the assassins? Have you found out who sent them?"

Qing Ju shook her head, "It is said that those assassins had taken the poison in advance, and they were unable to save them when they were caught. Ao Ge reported the whole story to the Lord Long Live, and the Lord Long Live asked Dali Temple to investigate, but It is estimated that nothing can be found out. Anyone who dares to do such a thing must have wiped out all traces."

"Who did it? Yinhu?"

Concubine De turned her head to look out the window, "It won't be Yinti's, Yinti won't do that."

"It's definitely not the fourteenth brother's, don't worry, empress."

Qing Ju squatted beside Concubine De's feet, and lightly kicked her legs, "Now, Yanqing Palace is surrounded by three floors inside and outside, no one dares to assassinate again."

"You said," Concubine De suddenly realized something, "Long Live Lord, who Aoge reported the matter to last night?"

"Yes," Qingju nodded, "When something happened in Yanqing Hall, Ao Ge led his people to arrive first."

"So, Lord Long Live asked Aoge to guard the Yanqing Hall in secret?"

Qingju's hand slowed down, but Concubine De's complexion became paler...

Yanqing Palace

Brother Si and Su Wei sat at the dining table, looking at the table full of vegetarian dishes.

"No fish balls, no chicken legs, no pig's trotters, and no beef..."

Su Wei held up his chopsticks and poked them one by one. Finally, the fourth elder brother couldn't take it anymore and held down his hand.

"It's all imperial food. It's very delicate. Try it. It's no worse than meat dishes."

"No matter how delicate it is, it is also vegetarian!"

Grandpa Su doesn't eat that at all, "In this weather, in this season, we should have a hot pot of mutton, with tofu curd from our Nanjiang Garden, the freshest sauerkraut soup, and some small wontons after eating -"

"Okay," the fourth elder brother picked up a piece of scrambled egg with bean curd and stuffed it into Su Wei's mouth, barely blocking the full of complaints.

"Be patient, time flies. When we go out, you can eat whatever you want."

"Long Live Lord is really strange." Su Wei swallowed the egg in a few mouthfuls, "If you want to be locked up, you must be locked up here, and you must be a vegetarian! Then the elder brother and the second elder brother are not more serious than our mistakes. Why, why do they still have the quota, and can still eat delicious and spicy food?"

"I don't know either." The fourth elder brother held his job bowl and shook his head lightly, "Sometimes I feel that Huang Ama is sensitive, suspicious and moody, but sometimes I feel that Huang Ama does everything after careful consideration, and every step counts. Step, this may be the unfathomable Sacred Heart."
