"Liuxu?" Su Wei looked at Zhang Qilin in surprise.

"That's not it," Zhang Qilin looked around, pulled Su Wei into a corner, squatted shoulder to shoulder and whispered, "I heard it really, Hou Wu'er shouted when he was pulled out, saying that catkins hurt him , he doesn't know anything."

Su Wei frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "When you say that, I think of a strange thing. At that time, I was walking out dizzy, and a little eunuch helped me, and whispered in my ear He said, 'Why did you offend Hou Wu'er?' That's when I knew Hou Wu'er's name. Now that I think about it, that little eunuch appeared very abruptly, as if he came here to tell me who that person was."

Zhang Qilin was stunned for a moment, "So, it may not be an accident that Hou Wu'er met you. Maybe someone really wanted to harm him. This person is rampant and has just gained power, so he is the easiest to conflict with others. Not to mention you If you do it, even if you talk about it for a walk, it will be enough for him to drink a pot when he turns around."

Su Wei pursed his lips and nodded, "This matter needs to be investigated. Liu Xu is the prince's most powerful eunuch. If you really want to teach someone a lesson, why bother?"

Luanjia's army embarked on the journey back to Beijing, and the injured Su Wei has been sharing the bed with the fourth elder brother.

Su Wei's sleeping habits are really not very good. He can turn 360 degrees on the spot in one night, and the fourth elder brother hugs him, and he kicks people's feet from time to time.It was cold in the middle of the night, and the quilt was automatically rolled up into a cicada chrysalis, and the quilt was kicked away when it was hot.The one who grabs the fourth elder brother when he can't find the quilt, his skill in grabbing the quilt is stronger than his unarmed combat power when he is awake during the day.

After being tossed by Su Wei for several days, the fourth elder brother had dark circles under his eyes every day.

In front of the imperial tent, the fourth elder brother ran into the prince. The prince looked at the panda-like fourth elder brother and asked with concern, "Is the fourth elder brother ill? Why is he looking so haggard?"

The fourth elder brother smiled, "Second brother, don't worry, I just haven't had a good rest recently, I'll be fine when I get back to the palace and sleep well for a few days."

The crown prince nodded, and entered the imperial tent with the fourth elder brother one after the other.

When the curtain was drawn down, the elder brother came out from the corner of the imperial tent, his eyes were cold.

With the capital close at hand, Su Wei seized the last bit of free time and wandered around, but inadvertently heard a rumor that made him numb all over.

in the tent,

The fourth elder brother slammed the book on the table, Su Wei took a step back subconsciously, Zhang Bao and Zhang Qilin stood in the room with their heads bowed.It was just a single rumor, but it seemed to have grown wings, and it spread throughout the entire Northern Patrol team in just two days.

The crown prince is the heir apparent and the future of the royal family. His reputation cannot be tarnished in the slightest.Now, the emperor has not reacted yet. I don't know if he was kept in the dark or he didn't care.

The fourth elder brother leaned on his chin, rubbed the center of his brows, and said in silence for a moment, "Order, our people must keep their mouths in check. Anyone who speaks nonsense will be killed with a stick!"

"Yes," Zhang Bao and Zhang Qilin bowed their heads together and took orders.

Su Wei stood behind the fourth elder brother with his head down, without speaking.

into the night,

Su Wei hugged his quilt and made a bed under the fourth elder brother's bed.

The fourth elder brother looked at Su Wei who was lying on the big butterfly, and said in a low voice, "Xiaowei, actually—"

"I'm not afraid!" Su Wei interrupted the fourth elder brother, "I just don't want to cause trouble for you, and I don't want to risk my life to do stupid things at this time. We still have a long time, and there will always be a way in the future."

The fourth elder brother was silent for a moment, and slowly lay down on his own pillow, "You are right...but I am alone tonight, so I can finally sleep well."

Su Wei 囧...

big brother tent

Fujin gently pinched the elder brother's shoulders, and she was the only one among the elder brothers who followed the northern tour.Although she has not given birth to a son so far, it is still well known that the elder brother values ​​her. "My lord, we have also released the news, and we haven't seen any actions by the fourth brother, and there is no reaction from the prince."

Eldest brother nodded, "Huang Ama's attitude is subtle. Even if Yinzhen knows something, it's not easy to make a decision directly. However, it is always right for us to strike first before they react. Now rumors are flying around , after returning to Beijing, if the imperial censor impeaches her again, Huang Ama will have to show her attitude no matter what."

Fujin slightly frowned and said, "The crown prince has been in charge of the East Palace for 20 years. I'm afraid that the accusation of private conduct will not be shaken?"

The elder brother raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "Emiang's saying is true, the embankment of a thousand miles collapses in an ant's nest, if you want to achieve great things, you have to take it step by step."

prince camp

Liu Xu stood at the side with his hands down, his underwear was covered in cold sweat, he never thought that the other party would strike so quickly.It's just a sentence that I said after I was drunk, without evidence and evidence, and it finally led to such a bad result.If the emperor really pursues it, the prince's reputation will be greatly damaged.Those with ulterior motives will definitely make a big fuss about it.

Liu Xu wanted to tell the prince the truth, but she couldn't say it.He is just a slave, he is afraid of death...

"Catkins!"

"The slave is here."

"Pass the meal to the Lord, add a roasted whole lamb tonight, and call the other elder brothers over, so that we brothers can get together before entering the palace." The prince leaned on the back of the chair, and said in a calm and authentic voice.

"Yes," Liu Xu led the way down.

When the fourth elder brother brought Su Wei to the prince's tent, he didn't hear any sound unexpectedly. Liu Xu went up to greet the fourth elder brother and saluted, "Si elder brother is auspicious, the prince is waiting for you."

The fourth elder brother nodded and frowned slightly, "Where are the other elder brothers, I came early?"

"Uh," Liu Xu lowered his head slightly, "Eldest brother and third elder brother have something to do. Eighth elder brother said that he had eaten his fill today, so he sent someone to send a jar of good kumiss. Seventh elder brother was not feeling well. Elder brother is here, and he is in the house now."

The fourth elder brother nodded and stepped into the tent, Su Wei followed behind, sighing silently in his heart.On this tour, the emperor brought seven elder brothers with him, but now the prince hosted a banquet with only two of them.

Everyone knows what the eldest brother and the third elder brother are cultivating power and what they are trying to achieve, and it is inevitable to be awkward when they meet.The seventh elder brother has a disability, so what he said is understandable, but the seventh elder brother's mother, concubine Cheng, is the closest to concubine Hui, and everyone in the palace knows.On the contrary, the eighth elder brother, who has always been the best at being a man, is now... However, it is normal for the eighth elder brother to grow up next to Concubine Hui.

At the prince's banquet, it was really a little thin, but fortunately the prince didn't seem to care, and kept smiling and chatting with the two younger brothers about the family affairs.The roasted suckling sheep was brought up, and the prince cheerfully asked Liu Xu to cut off a leg of the lamb and gave it to the servants in the house.

Su Wei looked at the fourth prince's eyes, and opened a small table with Liu Xu and the others, sitting outside the tent to eat roast leg of lamb.Thinking of what Zhang Qilin told himself, Su Wei had a pimple on Liu Xu, no matter how he looked at him, something was wrong.

On the side of the fourth elder brother, the kumiss sent by the eighth elder brother has already been opened, and there is a strong smell of milk wine in the room, accompanied by the aroma of roasted sheep, it really has a Mongolian flavor.

Everyone was eating happily, an older father-in-law lifted the curtain, his chubby face was smiling, the prince looked up and said, "Eunuch Liang?"

Liang Jiu bowed to his masters efficiently, stood up and continued, "Your Majesty heard that the crown prince hosted a banquet, so he specially rewarded some dishes and added wine to all the masters." After speaking, he straightened up and clapped his hands, and several young eunuchs raised their hands. Enter the door with the food box.

Said it was a few dishes, but in fact it was enough for a table. In desperation, the crown prince rewarded all the original dishes on the table to the servants at the small table. Su Wei and the others couldn't even walk after eating.

The crown prince hosted a banquet, and the emperor rewarded the dishes, and word spread among the northern patrol army in one night.The rumors that had been raging were suddenly suppressed.

Su Wei admired the crown prince's move one or two times.

However, the fourth elder brother was not too optimistic. Hearing Su Wei's opinion, he smiled and said, "The rumors are just suppressed, not overthrown. As long as there is any mistake in the prince, it will be found out at any time. What's more What's more, since someone deliberately released rumors, it's not as simple as just spreading some small news. The position of the crown prince is related to Guozuo, and Huang Ama has been strictly controlling the officials' style of work. I'm afraid that someone will be impeached by the Metropolitan Procuratorate. People become tigers, how long can Huang Ama trust the prince?"

Su Wei tilted his head and did not speak. In fact, he knew in his heart that the crown prince would be abolished sooner or later. The reason why their fourth elder brother has no intention of winning the throne is because the crown prince sits on it.No matter what the prince's achievements are, he is a symbol, the heir of the emperor, and his reign represents the stability of the government. In the hearts of many talents in the south of the Yangtze River, the establishment of the crown prince is the proof of the prosperity of the Qing Dynasty.

However, one day, the prince will be abolished, and all elder brothers will have the qualifications to become a great treasure. At that time, it will be inevitable for brothers to fight against each other.

On the tenth day of September, the Northern Tour Army arrived in Beijing.

After returning to the palace, Su Wei couldn't wait to go to the respect room to find Liu Chaoqing and ask him about Hou Wu'er's background.

Liu Chaoqing told Su Wei that Hou Wuer was the steward of Changchun Garden. Shortly after the emperor returned to the palace from Changchun Garden, Hou Wuer was transferred to the palace and directly became the chief eunuch.From this, it can be inferred that Hou Wu'er must have something to do with the master behind it.

Su Wei bit his finger and thought for a long time, and finally asked Liu Chaoqing to help him find out the person behind Hou Wuer, Liu Chaoqing nodded in agreement.

On the way back to Zhengsan Institute, Su Wei linked up the recent events.The most important thing is what kind of feud between Hou Wuer and Liu Xu, and who is behind Hou Wuer.

Not long after returning to the palace, the Golden Festival came.

Su Wei and the others have entered the busy life of preparing for the end of the year again.

However, the rumors about the prince really caused disturbances in the court as the fourth elder brother had speculated.

In the Metropolitan Procuratorate, there were several excerpts from the royal history, and the impeachment of the prince was not correct, which affected the reputation of the royal family.In the end, they were all suppressed by the emperor one by one.

The new year is approaching, and the fourth elder brother enters the palace to pay his respects to Concubine De.

Concubine De asked Qingju to make tea, and sat down with the fourth elder brother, "After the new year, the Song family's child will fall to the ground, right?"

"Yes," the fourth elder brother nodded slightly, "probably in March."

Concubine De smiled, "Emiang has been looking forward to it for so many years, and finally she is looking forward to a grandson. Although it is not a direct son, it is also your first child. You should take care of it."

"My son understands," the fourth elder brother bowed his head.

Concubine De turned her head and looked out the window, lowered her voice and said, "Recently there is a lot of trouble at the prince's place, you should pay more attention, don't accidentally get involved, your Huang Ama's mind is getting more and more difficult Guess."

"Emiang, don't worry, my son knows the stakes."

Concubine De nodded, and said as if thinking of something, "Emiang heard that you haven't been in the backyard for a long time? The Song family is pregnant, and it doesn't affect others, especially Fujin. Hurry up and have a son to compare with you." Everything is strong."

The fourth elder brother was stunned for a while, "Son, I've been busy lately..."

"No matter how busy you are, you have to rest at night." Concubine De frowned, then leaned over and said, "It's the people in the yard that you don't like? How about Er Niang showing you some more?"

"No need," the fourth elder brother was taken aback, and waved his hands again and again, "My son just doesn't want to dwell on his personal affairs, and it has nothing to do with Fujin and the others..."

Yuqing Palace

In an empty ear room, a hand was slowly hanging down, Dezhu's eyes were filled with tears, and he gradually couldn't open his eyes.

"De Zhu!" The crown prince pushed the door open and entered, hugged the man who was bleeding from the corner of his mouth, and shouted from outside the door, "Come here, Imperial Physician Xuan!"
