Dressed as Su Peisheng

The East Wing Room of the Atrium of the Three Schools

Xi'er hurried in, waved away the maids in the house, and muttered in Li's ear for a while.

Li's brows gradually furrowed, and he patted the Kang table lightly, "Su Peisheng?"

"Yes," Xi'er leaned forward, "According to Wu Quan's apprentice, the fourth elder brother was exactly the jade pendant that Su Peisheng brought when he came out of Su Peisheng's room, and on that day, Eunuch Su happened to be out of the palace."

"So..." Li's eyes were locked, "Is there really someone out there, Brother Si? Is Su Peisheng going the needle?"

Xi'er pursed her lips, her face full of bewilderment, "It's not necessarily this one, maybe it's Eunuch Su's filial piety to the fourth elder brother."

With a sound of "clang", Li accidentally swept the tea bowl to the ground, Xi'er was startled, knelt down and said, "My lord, forgive me."

Mrs. Li wiped her hands in a panic, "It's not your business, get up."

Xi'er stood up and looked at Gege who suddenly turned pale, "Little master, what's wrong with you?"

Li Shiqiang calmed himself down, "I'm fine, don't tell anyone what happened today, you take two silver ingots from my drawer to Wu Quan, and let him keep his mouth shut."

"Yes," Xi'er bent down and took the order.

Changchun Garden

The fourth elder brother doesn't pay much attention to Su Wei recently, and he doesn't pay much attention to other people. Apart from class, he reads books every day, although he often can't turn two pages a day.The emperor listened to the government, and the fourth elder brother no longer participated in it. The emperor sent people to ask twice, but the fourth elder brother prevaricated by saying that he was mentally ill, so the emperor no longer summoned him.

Su Wei saw it in his eyes and was anxious in his heart. He wanted to say something countless times, but he was distracted by the fourth elder brother.It has to be said that the words of the emperor have much greater influence than the influence of the two concubines. After all, for a man, sometimes his career far outweighs his feelings.

The Holy Majesty is on a north tour in July, and the fourth elder brother is on the list of retinues. As soon as June arrives, everyone will start preparing to return to the palace.

The thirteenth elder brother and the fourteenth elder brother will move to the Maoqin Hall to study when they return to the palace. The emperor specially let them go ahead.Before leaving, the fourth elder brother finally showed his face, and after exhorting them, he gave each of them a set of the Four Treasures of the Study.

Yinxiang tugged at the sleeve of the fourth elder brother, "fourth brother, are you in poor health recently? Or, my brother will tell Huang Ama not to move, but stay with you."

The fourteenth elder brother heard the words and looked up at the fourth elder brother.

The fourth elder brother smiled, and patted the heads of the two younger elder brothers one by one, "Fourth elder brother is fine, just a little tired, just rest for a few days. It is a big deal for you two to study, move to Maoqin Palace to leave... Huang Ama is also nearer, so I can learn a lot, so don't waste any more time for the fourth brother."

After seeing off the two little elder brothers, Su Wei followed the fourth elder brother back to the bedroom. Just as he was about to speak, he saw the fourth elder brother take off his shoes and go to bed, "Master is tired, don't make noise."

Sho San Institute

Atrium main hall

In front of the bronze mirror, Shi Yao gave Fujin a bun, "Master, the fourth brother and the others are coming back, what should we do about Mr. Su?"

Fujin looked at himself blurred in the bronze mirror, "There is only Su Peisheng, there is no excuse. If we don't know the person who ordered Su Peisheng, we can't do anything."

Shi Yao paused for a moment, "The servant thinks of someone, the master can use it."

Fujin turned his head slightly, "You mean Wu Quan?"

"Yes," Shi Yao leaned over, "Wu Quan has been the manager for so many years, and there is always someone from him in the front yard, maybe we can find out some clues."

"No," Fujin lowered his head, "Wu Quan is too ambitious, even the fourth elder brother can't trust him. If he finds out something later, wouldn't it mean that we let him hold the fourth elder brother's handle."

Shi Yao suddenly nodded, "What Fujin said is true."

On the tenth day of June, everyone returned to the palace.

The thirteenth elder brother has moved to Maoqin Hall, and all the servants began to make full preparations for the fourth elder brother to follow the northern tour.

When Su Wei hit the back of his head with his busy feet, he occasionally noticed that Miss Shiyue was always wandering around beside him, "I said Miss Shiyue, what's going on with you recently?"

Shiyue bit her lip, looked at Su Wei with a hesitant expression on her face, "I...I..."

Beads of sweat hung on Su Wei's forehead, "Is there anything I can't just say? You look like... dry stool."

"Oh, I won't tell you." Shiyue shook the veil on Su Wei's face, turned and left.

Su Wei smacked his lips inexplicably, then turned around and continued to direct everyone to work.

In July, Shengjia Qi Luan.

Su Wei followed the fourth elder brother out of Gubeikou for the Nth time.However, this is probably the most aggrieved tour for Su Wei since he followed the fourth elder brother to the north.

The fourth elder brother is in a state of dying, and he is no longer as heroic as Buku defeated the third elder brother on the field last time.Probably due to the influence of the fourth elder brother, all the elder brothers who are usually lively and lively are very restrained during this trip, only the eldest brother and the third elder brother still show their faces in the imperial tent from time to time.

However, the emperor seems to be quite satisfied with this scene. Although the fourth prince did not hunt a few times, he has won a lot of rewards from the emperor.

On the way back, Su Wei always wanted to find an opportunity to have a sincere talk with the fourth elder brother, but the fourth elder brother never picked up.Su Wei was extremely depressed. He found sadly that the fourth elder brother's self-isolation had escalated this time.

In September, when the northern tour army arrived in the suburbs of Beijing, the fourth elder brother asked Su Wei to return to the palace first with the imperial reward.Su Wei got into the carriage angrily. He knew that the fourth elder brother thought he was annoying, so he kindly treated him like a donkey!

Main hall of the three atriums

The little maid went into the house and reported to Fujin, saying that Mr. Su would go back to the palace first and came to see Fujin.

Fujin was slightly taken aback, Shi Yao waved the little maid back, "Fujin..."

Fujin's face was gloomy, "This is probably the best time for us to figure this out thoroughly."

Shi Yao bit her lip, "But... this Su Peisheng is no ordinary slave, we have all suffered a lot."

Fujin frowned, and said in a deep voice, "If you don't understand this matter, it's like a knife hanging above Zhengsan Institute. Since I am Fujin, I can't just not know the reason when the knife falls."

Su Wei stood bored in the courtyard of the courtyard. In fact, from the bottom of his heart, he didn't want to have any interaction with Fujin.But after all, he went back to the palace first, and it would be disrespectful not to come and greet Fujin at this time.

"Eunuch Su?" A rather familiar voice sounded.

Su Wei turned his head and smiled at the person, "Shiyue."

Shiyue quickly walked up to Su Wei, "Si elder brother has returned to the palace?"

"No," Su Wei shook his head, "I was first sent back by the fourth elder brother to present the emperor's reward."

Shi Yue was taken aback, "Then what are you doing in the middle courtyard?"

"I'm here to greet Fujin," Su Wei blinked, why did the little girl turn pale in an instant?

Shiyue looked back at the gate of the main hall, and pushed Su Wei, "Grandpa Su, don't wait here, maybe Fujin has fallen asleep, you should go quickly, and come to say hello when the fourth elder brother comes back—"

"Shiyue!" A familiar call came from the entrance of the main hall, the voice was extremely cold.

Su Wei then turned his head, and Fujin's grand maid, Shi Yao, slowly descended the steps, "Why don't you have a job? What are you talking to Su Gonggong here?"

Shiyue shrank her head, "I—"

"Oh, Shiyue asked me if I brought vanilla back this time," Su Wei continued with a smile.

Shi Yao glanced at Shi Yue, then turned to Su Wei and said, "Grandpa Su, follow me into the house."

"Yes," Su Wei lowered his head and followed Shiyao into the main hall, not paying attention to the anxious look in Shiyue's eyes.

Royal camp

The fourth elder brother was sitting in the tent reading, and the accompanying eunuchs stood obediently in their positions.

The sun was setting in the west, the fourth elder brother put down the book, and suddenly felt that everything in front of him was extremely boring, like a dull ink painting, and the eunuchs standing on both sides were made of wood.

"Zhang Qilin!"

"The servant is here," Eunuch Zhang bowed to the side of the fourth elder brother.

The fourth elder brother leaned on the back of the chair, "He...should he enter the palace now?"

Zhang Qilin was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that he was asking Eunuch Su, "Yes, counting the time, we should be at Zhengsan Institute now."

The fourth elder brother nodded slightly, wanted to say something but didn't say it, finally lowered his head and opened the book.

As the sky was getting dark, Su Wei was locked in the Xili Room of the main hall of the atrium.

There are a lot of sundries in this hut, Su Wei can only sit on the ground leaning on a big box.He never thought that a jade pendant with his name on it could bring him such a big trouble.

Fortunately, God has eyes, Fujin just asked who asked him to buy the jade pendant, obviously he didn't suspect that aspect...

that aspect?Su Wei was startled suddenly, why did he have that aspect? Could it be that in his heart, he already had that kind of thinking about the fourth elder brother?

So... what about the fourth elder brother?

On the day the emperor came to Chengluxuan, what the fourth elder brother said...

Unconsciously, Su Wei hugged his knees tightly, his cheeks were a little hot, the fourth elder brother cared about him, and he was in the same state of mind, right?Inexplicably, Su Wei was in a good mood and completely forgot about his current situation and Si elder brother's attitude that day.

Luang drove back to the palace at noon the next day

After the fourth elder brother followed the emperor to greet the queen mother, he returned to Zhengsan Institute.

However, before entering the door, Zhang Qilin hurried out, "Master, it's not good, the servant just learned that Su Gonggong is gone."

"Missing?" The fourth elder brother was taken aback for a moment, then turned around and walked quickly into the yard, "Xiao Erge!"

Atrium main hall

Su Wei knelt on the ground, Fujin looked at him coldly, "I'll give you one last chance, who did you buy the jade pendant for?"

Su Wei lowered his head and secretly rolled his eyes. At this time, he is a fool, okay? "I don't know what Fujin is talking about. I didn't buy any jade pendants, and I didn't buy anything for anyone."

"Okay," Fujin smiled coldly, raised his head and said to the little eunuch beside him, "Yan Fu, beat me up on this slave who lied to his master!"

"Yes," Yan Fu took a step forward, and before Su Wei could react, he was slapped hard on the face.

I... Fuck!Su Wei was taken aback, he had never been slapped in the face in his two lifetimes!It's bearable to hit the board, but absolutely not to hit the face!

Su Wei was about to stand up and fight back in an instant, but his legs were fine, and the closed door was suddenly pushed open, and a stern shout came, "What are you doing?"

The fourth elder brother was followed by Zhang Qilin and Zhang Bao. Fujin's complexion was pale, and he slowly stood up and gave a blessing, "My concubine greets the fourth elder brother."

The fourth elder brother glanced at her coldly, then turned to look at Su Peisheng who was kneeling on the ground, Su Wei pursed his lips, with a bright red palm print on his face, "Who hit it?"

Su Wei pointed, and Yan Fu knelt down in a jerk. He was a newcomer to Zhengsan Institute not long ago, and was called by Fujin Xiangzhong to serve him. What about today.

"Zhang Bao, hold this servant's mouth!" The fourth elder brother said coldly.

"Yes," Zhang Baoyi lowered his head and took two steps forward.

"Wait!" Fujin stopped him, "Master, don't you want to hear why my concubine beat Su Peisheng?" Then, Fujin took a step forward, and lightly reached out his hand to touch the jade pendant of the fourth elder brother.

The fourth elder brother froze, staring at Fujin's face without making a sound, Fujin lowered his voice and said, "Master can do whatever he wants, have you ever thought about how to face the emperor and the concubine if something happens?"

"Hey, why is it so lively?" A clear voice sounded by the door, Li-shi took small steps, entered the door with a smile on his face, and bowed slightly to the fourth elder brother.

"What are you doing here?" Fujin looked at Li Shi and asked.

Li smiled, "I am here to admit my mistake."

Fujin slightly raised his eyebrows, and Mrs. Li walked up to the fourth elder brother, "A while ago, my concubine's father-in-law from the Ministry of Internal Affairs brought a jade pendant to the fourth elder brother. I was careless and didn't pay much attention to taboo things. I just saw this jade pendant. The name of the fourth elder brother was printed on the jade pendant, which was very flattering, so I dedicated it to the fourth master. A few days ago when Fujin mentioned it, my sister was in a lingering fear and didn't dare to admit it for a while. Now that the fourth elder brother is back, the younger sister came here to admit his mistake and ask Fujin to punish him."

Fujin frowned, looked at the fourth elder brother, and then at Li Shi.

Mrs. Li turned her head to look at Su Peisheng, who was kneeling on the ground, and said with a smile, "By the way, I also heard from that father-in-law that he happened to meet Su Eunuch when he was buying jade pendants. Neither can afford it.”

Su Wei was stunned, "Oh, yes, the slave is a poor ghost."

Fujin straightened up, "You mean the father-in-law of the Ministry of Internal Affairs? Who is it?"

Mrs. Li walked up to Fujin, smiled and said softly, "The father-in-law is right outside the door, Fujin...do you really want to see him?"

Li's eyes were suspicious, Fujin frowned, turned to look at the fourth elder brother who was standing by the table with a cold face, and his heart tightened suddenly, "No, my sister will definitely believe what she said." .”

After finishing speaking, Fujin walked up to the fourth elder brother and knelt on the ground, "The concubine is guilty and wronged Eunuch Su, please punish the fourth elder brother."

The fourth elder brother's lips moved, and after a long time, he said softly, "You can do it yourself."

The fourth elder brother led Su Peisheng out of the gate, Fujin's body went limp and he collapsed on the ground.

"Fu Jin," Shi Yao hurriedly stepped forward to help, Fujin waved his hand, leaned on the stool, and stood up slowly, "Go and check, who has Li Shi been in contact with recently?"

"Yes," Shi Yao leaned over, "Fu Jin, don't think too much, just take a rest first."

Fujin shook his head, "I'm fine, go check it out. If Mrs. Li hires someone who shouldn't be hired, it will be difficult for us to be stable in the third office."

Back in the fourth elder brother's bedroom, the fourth elder brother sat on the couch with a stiff face, while Zhang Qilin and Zhang Bao retreated out sensibly.

Su Wei rubbed his face and exhaled deeply, "It was really dangerous just now, but fortunately Li Gege came, but how did Li Gege know? How did Fujin find me? Master?"

The fourth elder brother didn't answer, but just as Su Wei was about to step forward, the fourth elder brother stood up suddenly and hurried to the side of the bed.

Su Wei watched in astonishment as the fourth elder brother moved the footbed, and pulled out a wooden box from under the bed.

Su Wei stepped forward carefully, looked at the expression on the fourth elder brother's face, then slowly squatted down, and opened the box.Checkers, jigsaw puzzles, Huarong Road, kites... Almost everything that Su Wei gave to the fourth elder brother was in it.

Su Wei didn't know how to describe his mood for a while, so he could only squat on the ground blankly, looking up at Brother Si, "Master—"

"These things," the fourth elder brother said suddenly, "take them away!"

Su Wei was taken aback, and the fourth elder brother pulled off the jade pendant he was carrying, and threw it into the box, "There is still this."

Su Wei stood up slowly and looked at the fourth elder brother fixedly.The fourth prince's eyes were empty, and he didn't make any eye contact with Su Wei.

"Master is tired, go down," the two stood facing each other for a long time, and the fourth elder brother said without any emotion in his voice.

Su Wei lowered his head to look at the box, then turned his head to look at the fourth elder brother who walked to the bed and sat down. His chest was so heavy that it seemed that he was about to explode. His heart that had been beating abnormally since last night suddenly froze. Wei's teeth chattered.

After a while, Su Wei suddenly raised his voice, "Ku Kui!"

Ku Kui, who was on duty at the door, entered in response. Su Wei closed the lid of the box and said coldly, "Take these things to the backyard and burn them. Don't leave anything behind."

Ku Kui was a little dazed. He looked at the silent fourth elder brother, then at the unusually angry Eunuch Su, and finally stepped forward to pick up the box.

Did the two quarrel, Ku Kui thought to himself.Before he even walked out the door, a sentence that made Kukui's hair stand on end came slowly, "Yinzhen, I look down on you! Coward!"
