Dressed as Su Peisheng

Kangxi 30 years

Yonghe Palace

Qingju waved away the little eunuch who reported the letter, and turned around to bring a bowl of hot tea to Concubine De.

Concubine De took a sip, her face slightly gloomy.

"Your Majesty—" Qing Ju was about to speak, but was interrupted by Concubine De's hand, "Yinzhen was raised by the imperial concubine after all, and it's human nature for him to miss Chengqian Palace."

"Your Majesty is magnanimous," Qing Ju bowed her head, then lowered her voice again, "However, servant girl, that Fujin has his own opinions."

Concubine De leaned back on the back of the chair, her gaze shifted, "It's not necessarily a good thing to have her own opinions, it also depends on whether she is smart or not."

night of the ninth day of november

Zhengsan four four brother study room

Su Wei hung his arms and wrote Li Bai's "Climbing the Phoenix Terrace in Jinling", while the fourth prince watched with his hands behind his back.Su Wei hasn't practiced calligraphy for a while, and the influence of the song "Xiao Erlang" has finally passed, so he didn't consciously continue the ancient exam-oriented education.

But the great history proves that a soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier, and a slave who does not want to be a champion is not a good slave.No, the fourth elder brother had another whim.

Su Wei wrote the last sentence pretending to be chic, "It's always because the clouds can cover the sun, and Chang'an's disappearance makes people worry." He grinned and turned his head to smile at the fourth elder brother. In fact, he thought it was very good that he could write like this. , Wu Quan, Wang Qin and the others are not as beautiful as their own handwriting.

But the fourth elder brother was obviously dissatisfied. The excitement at the beginning turned into a blank expression at the end. The standard ice cube face had a tendency to explode when it met Su Wei's smirk. .

The scene was silent for a long time, and the fourth elder brother sighed deeply, picked up Su Wei's work and looked at it carefully, saying, "You are really 'worrying'."

Zhang Qilin paced back and forth at the entrance of the main hall, it seemed that it was night, the fourth elder brother was still in the study, Fujin had just entered the palace on the second day, so he couldn't just guard the empty room alone.However, an eunuch on duty today told him that the fourth elder brother and Fujin seemed to have had an unpleasant affair outside, so it was uncomfortable to go in by himself at this time.

"Eunuch Zhang," a voice with a smile interrupted Zhang Qilin's entanglement. Zhang Qilin turned his head and saw Wu Quan.

"Hey, Manager Wu," Zhang Qilin cupped his hands.

"Don't dare, dare not," Wu Quan returned the salute, and stepped forward two steps, "Did Eunuch Zhang come to invite the fourth elder brother to the backyard?"

"Eh..." Zhang Qilin hesitated for a moment, "I just came to ask the master what he meant."

Wu Quan smiled, "That's just right, I also have something to report to the fourth elder brother, why don't you go in together with Eunuch Zhang?"

Zhang Qilin shrunk his head and looked at Wu Quan, why did he feel that this man was hiding a knife in his smile.

in the study

Su Wei was poking his head up to see the fourth elder brother sketching on his big characters. Ku Kui, who was on duty, entered the room and reported, "Master, Manager Wu and Eunuch Zhang are here to see you."

The fourth elder brother finished the last stroke, picked up the paper and blew it and handed it to Su Weidao, "Go back and follow this, copy twenty sheets, and when you finish writing it later, I will write a new one for you."

"Yes," Su Wei took it hoarsely, with tears in his eyes.

The fourth elder brother glanced at Su Wei's pitiful appearance, then turned to Kukui and said, "Let the two of them in."

Wu Quan and Zhang Qilin entered the study one by one, and after saluting, Wu Quan first said, "Four elder brothers, the slaves are here to ask for orders. Now that there are too many masters in the backyard, do the eunuchs and maids in each house have to set up a steward?" gone?"

The fourth elder brother wiped his hands with a cloth towel, turned around and sat on the chair, "That's right, but now Fujin is in charge of the backyard, you go ask and let Fujin make a list. Zhang Qilin is temporarily placed in the middle courtyard Steward, if you don't need Fujin, you can withdraw."

Zhang Qilin was stunned, Wu Quan leaned over and said, "Yes, the fourth elder brother is Rong, the slave has one more thing."

"Say," the fourth elder brother turned around and poked Su Wei, who was immersed in grief, Su Wei turned around and brought a cup of tea.

"Since I came to my elder brother's house, the slave has been honored by the master and has always served as the manager. But now, the slave is getting older, and it is gradually unable to manage the entire yard. The slave is worried that he will cause trouble for the masters. I ask my elder brother for permission to transfer the servants away and make room for those who are capable."

The fourth elder brother scraped off the tea foam, looked up at Wu Quan, "You have been in charge of Zhengsan Institute for so many years, and you have worked hard without credit. I will not treat you badly. Since you have this intention, go to Fujin to ask first. , see if you can take on Zhang Qilin's errand, if not, I will arrange for you."

"Hey," Wu Quan was moved, he knelt down and kowtowed to the fourth elder brother, "Thank you for your kindness, master. Although this old bone of a slave is useless, I will definitely repay my master's great kindness with all my heart and soul."

Su Wei touched the goosebumps on his arms that were disgusted.The fourth elder brother turned his head and glanced at him, put down the tea bowl, cleared his throat and said, "I know you are loyal, so let's go down."

"Yes," Wu Quan bowed his body and retreated, Zhang Qilin watched him leave, and turned his head to face Si Age, who was leaning on the back of the chair with his hands clasped.

"What's the matter with you?" Brother Si asked with narrowed eyes.

Zhang Qilin felt a chill on his back, just when he saw Su Peisheng's gently shaking head, he suddenly cleared his mind, that's right, once Wu Quan came, his position as the chief eunuch of the middle court would most likely be gone.He doesn't care about the middle school anymore, so why bother with it?

"Eh..." Zhang Qilin blinked and said, "The servant is here to ask you... do you want supper?"

There were big beads of sweat on Su Wei's head, and he vowed silently in his heart that he must stay away from Zhang Qilin in the future. Recently, his IQ has dropped more and more, so it must be infected by this person.

Central Court Main Hall

Fujin was sitting on the couch in the inner hall, Shiyao looked at the door for a while, then turned around and walked to Fujin's side and said softly, "Master, I see that the lights in the front yard are turned off, I guess the fourth elder brother will not come over, let's sleep first .”

Fujin nodded slightly, but when he got up, his feet were weak, but Shi Yao helped him in time, "Master, are you alright?"

Fujin shook his head, and walked slowly into the house.

I still remember that the night before she entered the palace, Er Niang held her hand and cried with tears in her eyes.Tell her over and over again, let her yield one point and endure three points in everything, the royal family is unusual, if one step is not taken well, it will be lost forever.

With such apprehension and fear, she walked towards the sedan chair step by step.The female officer accompanying the sedan chair supported her hand and laughed softly, "Si Fujin, don't be nervous, look up."

She raised her head slightly obediently, and in front of the guard of honor to welcome her relatives, she was riding alone on a tall horse with her back straight.There are loud voices around, but that person seems to be alone.Although she was far away, she could still feel the coquettish demeanor and the majesty in all directions.

This person is the one she will depend on for the rest of her life.

In just a moment, a strange emotion flooded into her heart, her face was so hot that she could only lower her head hastily, and followed the ladies into the sedan chair.

The wedding night in the bridal chamber was the happiest night since she was born. Although the fourth elder brother seemed to be preoccupied, she still gradually sank in his gentle words.

But who would have thought that the beauty like a dream only lasted for that short night.

West Wing

Song Gege put down the embroidery and rubbed his eyes.

Bi'er came in excitedly and said, "My lord, the fourth elder brother didn't come to the backyard."

"What?" Song Gege raised his head, "Fu Jin has only been in the hospital for a day."

"That's right," Bi'er said with a smile, "My servant heard that when Fujin went to worship today, he offended the fourth elder brother. After the fourth elder brother came back, he went back to the front yard directly, and did not eat lunch with Fujin."

Song Gege looked out the window thoughtfully, and the main hall just turned off the lights, so he sighed and said, "Forget it, everyone has their own destiny, let's sleep too."

"Yes," Bi'er bowed and turned to carry the water basin.

Seeing Bi'er's cheerful back, Song frowned.

front yard bedroom

Su Wei sat on the ottoman, his heart was full of conflicts, the fourth elder brother turned over on the bed, Su Wei said cautiously, "Master, you really don't want to go to the back? Fujin just entered the palace, because of something during the day In the cold, what if it gets to the Yonghe Palace?"

One hand "slapped" the back of Su Wei's head, and the fourth elder brother said in a low voice, "So what if it is passed to the Yonghe Palace? Empress Xiaoyi is my adoptive mother, and everyone in the harem knows that she is my Fujin, so don't listen to me." It's not virtuous, it's not filial to not worship the queen's mother, and it's already an excuse for the master to neglect her for a few days.!"

"Master, you are so narrow-minded," Su Wei muttered in a low voice, but his braid was pulled violently.

"Master!" Su Wei pulled his braids. The fourth elder brother is getting worse and worse now, always bullying people in various ways.

"Let you talk nonsense," the fourth elder brother grabbed Su Wei's braid, which was so fluffy that it felt good to the touch, and he wiped it on his face, and there was still a little fragrance, "Well, what do you use to wash your hair? It smells good."

Su Wei has flat eyes, "Pork Ling".

In fact, people in ancient times didn't wash their hair very much, especially in the Qing Dynasty, it was very troublesome to wash such long braids.But it was different in the palace, even the slaves paid great attention to their own hygiene, otherwise it would be disrespectful to come to the master with a strange smell on their body, and they might be pulled out and beheaded.So sometimes Su Wei is quite thankful that he wore it in the palace, otherwise he would definitely not be able to stand the hygienic conditions of ordinary people in ancient times.

There was a slight snoring sound on the bed, Su Wei woke up from his wide-open mind, carefully rescued his braids from the hands of the fourth elder brother, and lamented deeply for himself again in his heart.It's just that when he lay down on the bed, there was a jingle on his neck, which made Su Wei feel a little sweeter in an instant.

The next day, the middle court became lively, and Fujin asked Dongxixiang to confirm his eunuch and maid in charge and report the list.

Now the Song family and the Li family are all princesses, and Fujin stipulates that each person can only have one eunuch in charge and one palace lady.Below are two young eunuchs and three young maids.

Fujin himself is a eunuch in charge, four big court ladies, four junior eunuchs, and eight small court ladies.In addition, the chief eunuch of the middle court and the steward of the waiter were all dispatched by Fujin.

In the afternoon, both the Song family and the Li family confirmed that the maid in charge of the Song family was Bi Er, and the eunuch in charge was Qin Rui.Li's maid in charge is Xi'er, and the eunuch in charge is called Lu Liangqiu.Xiao Ruizi and Xiao Qiuzi were originally eunuchs in the front yard, but the two Ge Ge were transferred to the back yard after they came in.

Fujin appointed Wu Quan as the chief eunuch of the middle court and the eunuch in charge of his own house, Mother Jiang as the chief steward of the court ladies of the middle court, and Xu Zhong as the steward of the tea room of the middle court.This Xu Zhong also asked himself to be transferred to the waiter in the middle courtyard, and the waiter in the front yard and the delivery of meals were completely handed over to Yue Jiu.The four court ladies are all Fujin's dowry maids, named Shiyao, Shihuan, Shilong, and Shiyue.

When the list of the Intermediate Court came out, Su Wei was taken aback. At some point, the Intermediate Court became Wu Quan's world.The two eunuchs in charge of Ge Ge came in with Wu Quan at the beginning, and Xu Zhong, the steward of the waiter, was Wu Quan's loyal subordinate.

With the growth of the fourth elder brother, the power struggle among the slaves that had been imminent had died down for a long time, but it was unexpected that it would come up again in a moment of carelessness.The fourth elder brother no longer pays attention to the small thoughts of the slaves, but Su Wei can't help but care about it. It is sometimes troublesome to shake a tree.What's more, the relationship between the fourth elder brother and Fujin has already planted hidden dangers.

Su Wei walked around the room a few times, and finally found Wang Qin and asked him to find someone to replace Yang Yi who was in charge of the reward.Yang Yi is one of the few remaining eunuchs in Chengqian Palace. After the Punishment Division incident, he has been in charge of the imperial rewards in the fourth elder brother's house. He has never made a mistake, which shows that he is a delicate mind.

Because of Wu Quan's old age, Su Wei transferred Yang Yi to the Intermediate Court as a bookkeeping eunuch, who was in charge of the consumption of each house's expenses from the fourth elder brother's warehouse, and supervised Wu Quan's people by the way.

The fourth elder brother didn't ask any questions, and let Su Wei dispatch troops, and finally just threw him a sentence, Wu Quan left, who will be the chief eunuch of the third institute?
