Dressed as Su Peisheng

The eighth day of the fifth lunar month in the 34th year of Kangxi

The prince is getting married, Su Wei followed the fourth elder brother to Yuqing Palace to accompany the prince to welcome the bride.

At the banquet in the evening, the fourth elder brother, the fifth elder brother, etc. kept drinking for the prince. Su Wei waited carefully all the way, hoping that his master would not drink too badly.

However, the strange thing is that Su Wei didn't see De Zhu at the huge banquet, and that was the only one missing from the prince's haha ​​beads and the guards of the courtiers.

The banquet finally ended, and Su Wei followed the fourth elder brother back to the elder brother's place.

Fortunately, the servants of Yuqing Palace were thoughtful and prepared sedan chairs for the brothers who accompanied the wine, otherwise they would be in trouble.

Sho San Institute

Zhang Bao helped Su Wei to help the fourth elder brother into the bedroom, fetched two basins of water and went to guard the door.

Su Wei curled his lips, untied the fourth brother's clothes, and wiped his body with a wet towel.

"Su Wei...Xiaowei..." Si Age closed his eyes and muttered.

Su Wei glared at him, then turned around and took half a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake and stuffed it into Si elder brother's mouth.

I don't know why, seeing the prince in the red dress today, Su Wei thought of himself inexplicably.If this were in modern times, the half of me would get married and have children, and I would definitely have sent them to the Pacific Ocean with one punch, unlike now that I not only have to endure it, but also have to wait on it.

The dazed fourth elder brother didn't understand Su Wei's thoughts at all at this time. He fumbled around dishonestly with one hand, and finally caught the hand that was being wiped carelessly on his chest, smacked his lips in satisfaction, and turned over to sleep.

Su Wei fluttered the dim sum scum that fell on the pillow indiscriminately, and looked at Si Age's handsome and reddish face, and smiled unprincipled.

Chuxiu Palace

The nobleman Wang was walking slowly in the room with the help of the maid with her big belly, while the wet nurse was coaxing the fifteenth elder brother.

The weather at the end of spring was gradually getting hotter. Although Mrs. Wang lived alone in the East Main Hall of Chuxiu Palace, she still felt stuffy.

The maid led Wei Shi into the house, and Wei Shi smiled at the nobleman, "Concubine Wei, please greet the nobleman."

"Sister, get up quickly," Wang stepped forward to help Wei.

Wei looked at Wang's stomach, "My sister will be here next month."

Mrs. Wang nodded and touched her stomach, "This baby is not honest. Fortunately, it's not the first time I've had it, so I'm not so scared."

Wei smiled, "Sister, sit down quickly, I see that it's not convenient for you to leave the house, so I'll come over and talk to you, don't think I'm annoying."

"How could it be?" Mrs. Wang pulled Wei's hand, "I'm feeling bored, and it's not like you don't know me. Although there are many people in Chuxiu Palace, you are the only one willing to talk to me."

Wei patted her hand, "They are jealous of you. Not to mention that the emperor loves you so much, and now you have fifteen princes. When this in your stomach comes out again, the concubine and concubine will be just around the corner."

Wang lowered her head, and pursed her lips a little shyly, "I don't dare to count on concubine Fengfei, as long as the emperor has a place for me in his heart."

The corner of Wei's mouth raised slightly, and he looked around, "You are pregnant with the prince, which is no different than in the past. Concubine Hui always thinks about it. If you need something, send someone to report it, don't hide it."

Mrs. Wang nodded, "Concubine Hui cares about me, I know, when the child lands, I will go to Yanxi Palace to pay my respects."

Mrs. Wei nodded, "Empress Hui is looking forward to your going. Empress also said last time that you are pregnant this time, and the time to enter the palace will not be short. This person should have entered the palace long ago. Only recently There was a lot of trouble in Zhungeer, and the timing was not good. The empress said that when the situation in the previous court was relaxed, she would mention it to the emperor, and she would be promoted to your position, and a separate palace would be created to save you and your two children from being crowded. "

Mrs. Wang was taken aback when she heard the words, stood up quickly, leaned over and said, "My sister must thank Concubine Hui for me."

"Hey," Wei Shi helped Wang Shi up, "We serve the emperor together, we are sisters of our own family, don't be so polite."

Mrs. Wei chatted with Mrs. Wang for a while and then resigned. Mrs. Wang sent Mrs. Wei all the way to the gate. After seeing Mrs. Wei go far, she wanted to go back, but saw the door of the west chamber opened, and the concubine Tong Jia Shi walked out.

Tong Jiashi looked at Wei Shi who was walking away, then turned to look at Wang Shi, and lowered his head slightly, "Your Majesty Wang is auspicious."

Knowing Tong Jia's identity, Mrs. Wang naturally didn't dare to pursue the issue of etiquette, so she only whispered, "Sister, is she out?"

"Go for a walk," Tong Jiashi stood under the paper umbrella held up by Huanyue. Sir?"

Mrs. Wang was stunned for a moment, and replied, "Yes, the younger sister of Concubine Yi."

Tong Jia smiled, "So that's the case. My sister entered the palace late and only met Guo Guiren once. Her complexion is pale and her body is weak. I heard that she used to be a concubine and gave birth to a prince."

Wang frowned and said in a puzzled tone, "Why did my sister tell me this?"

Tong Jiashi turned around and stroked his collar, "It's nothing, I just happened to see Mrs. Wei remembering it. I heard that Guo Guiren was the closest to Mrs. Wei before."

Mrs. Wang blinked, but before she could react, Mrs. Tong Jia had already walked away.

June

One month before Li Gege's due date, there was movement in the harem first, the fifteenth elder brother's biological mother Wang Guiren gave birth to a prince.The emperor was overjoyed and rewarded Liugong.

At the end of spring and the beginning of summer, Su Wei asked the fourth elder brother for a vacation, and ran out of the palace to take a stroll.As a result, I met an acquaintance at Cheng'en Temple in the suburbs of Beijing.

Su Wei was wandering around the Chenghuang Temple, but he heard from passers-by that Cheng'en Temple had invited many masters and eminent monks to consecrate the newly cast Buddha statue. And vegetarian food will be distributed on the spot.

The passers-by who happened to be gossiping drove the carriage to go, so Su Wei joined in and got in the carriage.This was the first time that Su Wei went to the suburbs of Beijing alone. The journey was very exciting, and the carriage took a whole morning to arrive at Cheng'en Temple.

Cheng'en Temple is surrounded by mountains and rivers, with beautiful scenery. Su Wei walked around the mountain temple twice before squeezing into the crowd of believers.

The so-called golden Buddha statue was far less sacred than the legends said. Su Wei symbolically burned incense and turned to the backyard.The backyard was relatively clean, so Su Wei looked at the temple gates one by one, only to meet the pillar of virtue offering incense right in front of the gate of the Medicine King Bodhisattva.

There is a long section of stone steps outside the back gate of Cheng'en Temple. It seems that there are few people walking, and a lot of moss has grown.Su Wei and De Zhu chose a dry place to sit side by side, with lush mountains, green willows and stone forests in front of them.

"When the prince got married, why didn't I see you? I saw that the prince's haha ​​beads seemed to be there." Su Wei pressed his arms, bent over, and scratched the moss under his feet with a twig.

"I haven't been in the palace recently, the crown prince has sent me out on errands," De Zhu looked at the mountain scenery from a distance, feeling rare in his heart.

"Oh," Su Wei replied, leaning on his chin, and put the branch into his mouth, "Why is it the prince's wedding, you should come back early."

De Zhu lowered his head and said in silence for a while, "I'm just a slave, it doesn't matter if I'm missing."

Su Wei turned his head to look at De Zhu, but said nothing.

De Zhu touched Su Wei's arm, "Why are you getting more and more courageous, and even ran to the suburbs of Beijing?"

Su Wei grinned, "It's boring. I heard that there is excitement here, so I came here. Anyway, the master doesn't know, so it doesn't matter. Hey, it seems that this one is also distributing vegetarian food today. Let's go get some later and eat." The food in the temple may accumulate some blessings.”

De Zhu shook his head helplessly, "The blessings are not so good. If it is as you said, there will be no poor people in the world."

"It's up to people, how do you know if you don't do it?" Su Wei patted his chest, "You see, I am a man and a half who is positive. You have such a good family background, why do you always look like you can't cheer up?"

De Zhu smiled, pursed his lips, and was silent for a while, "You are right, I am being hypocritical."

Su Wei shook his head triumphantly, humming a little tune with a branch in his mouth.

In the evening, the fourth elder brother had used up his dinner, and Eunuch Su, who was out of the palace, hadn't come back yet.

Zhang Qilin ran to the gate of Shenwu and waited, while the miserable Wang Chaoqing stood behind the ice-like fourth elder brother and prayed silently.

Finally, just before the key was released at the palace gate, Eunuch Su rushed in on the stone road. If the token hadn't been lit early, the guards guarding the gate would have stabbed him into briquettes on the spot.

"Oh, my brother," Zhang Qilin greeted him with a mournful face, "Where did you go? Why did you come back so late?"

"Oh," Su Wei scratched his head in embarrassment, "It was an accident, it was purely an accident." How did he know that there would be so many people coming to receive the vegetarian meal? How dark is the master's face now?

Sho San Institute

As soon as Zhang Qilin stepped into the gate of the main hall, he shouted that Eunuch Su is back, and he turned sideways before disappearing.

Su Wei stared out the door, and entered the bedroom door holding the paper bag that had been hidden in his chest.

"Slave, go fetch water for the master," Wang Chaoqing saw Su Wei enter the door, leaned over neatly to the fourth elder brother, turned his head and rushed out.

Su Wei looked at the shaking door curtain and pouted.

The fourth elder brother sat on the edge of the bed, leaning on the bed with both hands, expressionless.

Su Wei hung his shoulders, scratched the back of his head and moved closer, "Master, I know I was wrong. There was a little accident, so I came back late."

The fourth elder brother didn't speak, his eyes were gloomy.

Su Wei stood in the room for a while, opened the kraft paper, took out a yellow bun and handed it to the fourth prince, "Master, I snatched this from Cheng'en Temple, no, I brought it here. They gave the Buddha statue today It was only after consecration that vegetarian food was distributed, and I went to get it specially. It is said that sincerity in asking for it like this can bring blessings to people..."

The fourth elder brother raised his head, looked at Su Wei, and then at the bun.

Su Wei squinted his mouth, then rubbed forward again, and pressed the steamed stuffed bun to the fourth elder brother's mouth. The fourth elder brother opened his mouth slightly and took a bite.Su Wei smiled immediately, "Hey, is it delicious? What stuffing?"

The fourth elder brother lowered his head and sighed, "I didn't get it."

"En?" Su Wei picked up the bun and looked at it, and took another big bite according to the mouth mark of the fourth elder brother, but he still didn't see the stuffing.

"Come here!" The fourth elder brother stretched out his hand and pulled Su Wei, who was still fighting with the steamed stuffed bun, to the bed and sat down. Su Wei held the steamed stuffed bun with teary eyes, and he snatched it for nothing. alright.

The fourth elder brother tilted his head and looked at Su Wei, who had no idea where his mind was wandering, to catch his breath. Finally, his chest felt tight, and he stretched out his arms, hugging Su Wei's waist and lay down on the bed.

When the fourth elder brother was pressed down, Su Wei was still holding the steamed stuffed bun in his hand, and the steamed stuffed bun disappeared later.And Wang Chaoqing, who went to fetch water, didn't come back all night.
