Dressed as Su Peisheng

Kangxi 35th Eve

Su Wei was lying on the ground, looking at the blurry ceiling through the darkness, the hot and humid air was like a rolled out quilt covering the person from head to toe.

The wooden door was pushed open with a creak, and Su Wei flattened his mouth subconsciously.

The fourth elder brother walked up to Su Wei's feet and kicked his calf, "I don't even talk about spreading out the mat, what should I do if I catch cold when I sleep like this?"

Su Wei turned over, buried his head half in the pillow, and said in a low voice, "No way, the mattress is very thick..."

The fourth elder brother sighed and did not speak.Su Wei waited for a long time but there was no response, so he couldn't help turning his head to look, but just bumped into a pillow flying in mid-air.

The fourth elder brother took off his shoes, put the pillows together with Su Wei's, and lay down on his body.

"Master," Su Wei turned over, "You can't sleep underground!"

"Why can't I sleep if you can sleep?" The fourth elder brother glared at Su Wei, reached out and grabbed half of the quilt and covered it.

Su Wei lay there in a daze for a while, stretched out his hand to push the fourth elder brother, and was slapped open by the fourth elder brother, "Don't make trouble, the master will go to court tomorrow."

Su Wei pursed his lips, "Then go to bed and sleep."

"No, it's hot!" Fourth elder brother closed his eyes and replied cleanly.

Su Wei was bored for a long time, and glared angrily, "Isn't it okay if I ask them to bring the tank back tomorrow? You just bully my ears! I'm not afraid of being caught. I was unlucky enough this time." It’s gone! If you don’t go to bed and catch a cold, the servants in the whole yard will be unlucky. I don’t want to be the culprit. It will be wicked. I’ve been—”

"Hush," the fourth elder brother said suddenly, Su Wei's nagging stopped abruptly, "Come here," the fourth elder brother said in a low voice.

Su Wei subconsciously thought that there was someone outside the door, so he immediately shrank his neck and put his neck on the pillow of the fourth elder brother, "Master, I-uh!" At the moment his mouth was gagged, Su Wei made up his mind that he would never believe it easily again. This world is gone...

At the end of July, sad news came from the palace that had been quiet for a while. Concubine Yi's youngest son Eleven Brother Yinzi suddenly had a high fever and died on the evening of the 25th.

The next day, several older brothers, Fujin, went to Yikun Palace to help with the funeral, and Concubine Hui, Concubine Rong, and Concubine De also accompanied them in the palace.

The emperor was full of grief, Concubine Yi couldn't afford to fall ill, and several Fujins were busy taking care of trivial matters, and they didn't have a rest until evening.

On the way back to the third office, Sifujin's complexion was very bad.

Shi Yao looked worriedly at the master leaning on the back of the sedan chair, then turned her head and told the servant, "Be careful, it's getting dark, don't slip your feet!"

"Yes," the eunuchs who lifted their feet agreed, walking forward and backward to Zhongcui Palace West Road.

There is no light in the Zhongcui Palace at night. Ever since Concubine Wen Xi and Concubine Ping passed away successively, and even Taoer hanged herself, the Zhongcui Palace has been completely empty. People passing by couldn't help but want to quicken their pace.

Shi Yao looked at the eaves exposed from the high wall, and the hideous shadow seemed to appear some monsters and monsters at any time, "Hurry up, hurry up," Shi Yao turned around and ordered.

Si Fujin had a headache from being shaken by the speeding sedan chair, frowned and opened his eyes and said, "What are you doing? This is in a hurry."

Shi Yao pursed her lips, "Fu Jin, this servant feels that here——."

"Ah!" A scream pierced the sky, and Sifujin's sedan chair was swayed left and right in fright. Everyone followed the source of the cry and looked at the sky above Zhongcui Palace. In the darkness, a figure with long skirt and long hair floated On the treetops in the courtyard.

Sho San Institute

Su Wei was lying on the head of his bed, putting sliced ​​watermelon on the ice cubes piled in the porcelain jar.

"Eunuch Su, Eunuch Su!" Wang Chao pushed the door open and entered, "Go and have a look, a little eunuch came to report that Fujin fainted on the stone path next to Zhongcui Palace!"

When Su Wei followed the fourth brother out of the elder brother's house, the lights beside the Zhongcui Palace were already brightly lit, and the eunuchs and guards on duty nearby all rushed to the scene, and everyone talked in groups of three or five.Si Fujin was sitting on the sedan chair, his face pale, as if he had just woken up.

"What's going on?" Fourth elder brother frowned and stepped forward.

"Master," Fujin called the fourth elder brother, with a rare look of weakness and fear on his usually dignified face.

The fourth elder brother walked to the side of the sedan chair, held Fujin's hand, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

Fujin tightly grasped the fourth elder brother's hand, nodding helplessly in fear.

Su Wei watched from the side, bit his lips and turned away, and told the little eunuch who followed, "Hurry up and go to Fujin to Xuan the Imperial Physician."

The fourth elder brother glanced at Su Wei, stood up straight with no expression on his face, and the head of the patrolling guard stepped forward and saluted, "Si elder brother, we rushed over when we heard the screams. Gu Fujin's entourage said yes, it was Zhong Cui." The palace is haunted."

"Nonsense!" The fourth elder brother's eyes turned cold, "It must be that these slaves are careless in doing things, scaring Fujin, and dare to blame ghosts! Later, each person will be rewarded with twenty boards, and see if anyone else has seen a ghost."

All the servants looked at me and I looked at you, and knelt down to plead guilty. Su Wei looked around and saw that all the servants following Fujin were pale and in shock.

Si Fujin was carried back to the third office, just in time for the imperial physician to arrive at the door, Si elder brother accompanied Fujin into the bedroom for consultation.

Su Wei turned around and went back to the front yard to supervise the execution.Fujin's grand maid, Shiyao, has been by Fujin's side all the time, so she is exempted from punishment.The rest, whether eunuchs or court ladies, were punished.However, these slaves only care about themselves when they encounter problems, and leave their masters alone, so they should be taught a lesson.

Su Wei listened to the young eunuch who was being tortured tell the whole story, and turned his head to ask Zhang Qilin to go to the storeroom to get the wound medicine for them to wipe. When there were groans in the yard, there was news from the courtyard that Fujin was happy.

Even though the fourth elder brother tried his best to cover up the truth that night, the news that Si Fujin had run into a ghost on the side of the Zhongcui Palace road and almost got pregnant had spread throughout the palace in an instant.The masters in the palace sent people to greet them one after another, but Fujin excused them all with the excuse of negligence and dereliction of duty as slaves.However, people's mentality of fanning the flames could not be supported, and the rumors that Zhongcui Palace was haunted intensified.

Concubine Hui ordered Baohua Palace to be a dojo overnight, and invited the master to recite sutras in Zhongcui Palace in order to calm people's hearts.But within a few days, there was another accident in which the Jingyang Palace eunuch was frightened and fainted by the ghost.

Changchun Palace

The concubine Liu's five-month pregnant belly was supported by the maid as she stepped out of the door, just as Huanyue walked by carrying a bucket.

"Master Liu is auspicious," Huanyue bowed to Mrs. Liu.

"Stop!" Mrs. Liu called to Huanyue who was about to leave, "You are also a palace maid who has been in the palace for many years, can't you even salute? Just bend your knees slightly when you see the master?"

Huanyue pursed her lips, put down the bucket, and bowed deeply to Mrs. Liu, "Your servant is negligent, please forgive me, my lord."

Mrs. Liu cast her a glance, but didn't cry out, turned around and sat on the porch, "What are you carrying?"

Huanyue looked at the bucket, bowed her head and replied, "The palace is not stable recently, and there are rumors of ghosts in Zhongcui Palace. The slaves went to Baohua Palace to ask for clean water and returned, and dusted the door for peace of mind."

Liu raised her eyebrows and raised her voice, "The concubine Hui has already said that the haunting of Zhongcui Palace is purely a rumor, and any partial listeners in the palace will be held accountable. You are so aggressive in begging for clean water, is it right?" Put Concubine Hui in your eyes, right?"

"I don't dare," Huanyue knelt on the ground, "I just want to ask for good luck for the master, and I have no other plans. Please forgive me."

Mrs. Liu snorted coldly, "I can't forgive this crime. Come, someone, tie Huanyue to Yanxi Palace and hand it over to Concubine Hui."

"Stop!" Tong Jiashi hurried over, "Huanyue is my maid, she made a mistake, I will discipline myself, it's not your turn to intervene!"

"You!" Mrs. Liu panted with sullen expression on her face, "Of course I don't dare to intervene in disciplining my sister's maid, but Concubine Hui is always qualified. It's because of her status that she doesn't even care about the master of the harem." In your eyes?"

Tong Jiashi turned to look at Liu Shi, "My sister, please be careful with your words. Not everyone can afford to be the master of the harem."

It is a big deal for Fujin to be pregnant, the Empress Defei sent people to ask three times a day, and the imperial doctor came to the palace every day to ask for a safe pulse.Now that the child has not yet landed, the rewards in the palace have been one after another, and even the queen mother invited Guanyin to send the child.The entire atrium was very lively, Li Gege often sat on the porch with the child in his arms, Song Gege didn't go out all day.

Su Wei lived his life as usual, but was a little dazed occasionally.

The fourth elder brother is very busy recently, always running outside the palace, it seems that the emperor sent him some mission, and Su Wei was not allowed to follow, so Su Wei just sat in the room in a daze every day.

It's been a long time since the little girl Shiyue came to see Su Wei. Since the day Zhongcui Palace hit a ghost, Shiyao became seriously ill. Shiyue was sent to Fujin to take care of her, and she was often too busy to see anyone.

Yanxi Palace

Concubine Hui was leaning on the couch, Yinliu dipped in menthol oil and rubbed Concubine Hui's temples.

Recently, accidents happened one after another in the palace, and the miasma of suicide haunted by ghosts, I don't know where it started, gradually there were rumors that Concubine Hui could not afford the heavy responsibility in the harem.Some people even blamed Eleventh elder brother's premature death on this, saying that the harem had no owner and could not restrain the ghosts and monsters who coveted the emperor's aura.Concubine Yi, who lost her beloved son, looked at Concubine Hui with even colder eyes.

Concubine Hui wanted to use iron hands to suppress it vigorously, but she had no choice but to guard against people's mouths more than Fangchuan.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty," the little palace maid hurried in.

Concubine Hui frowned and opened her eyes, "What's the matter, so flustered?"

The little palace maid leaned over and said, "The two little lords of Changchun Palace, Tong Jia and Liu, are making trouble at the door."

Concubine Hui closed her eyes in disgust, "My palace is full of trifles, I don't have time to pay attention to them, let them go!"

"Yes, yes," the little maid faltered a few words, and was glared at by Yin Liuyou, "If you have something to say, tell me quickly, haven't you seen that your empress has a headache?"

"Yes," the little maid leaned over again, "Liu Xiaozhu said that Aunt Huanyue ignored her mother's orders, listened to ghost rumors, and asked God for divination openly. Tong Jia's young master did not punish her, and even spoke rudely to her mother, saying, saying Empress is not worthy to be the master of the harem."

"Bastard!" Concubine Hui swept the tea bowl off the Kang table with one hand.

"Your Majesty, please calm down," the little palace maid hurriedly knelt down, "Young Master Tong Jia said that Liu Xiaozhu relied on her pregnancy—"

"Okay!" Concubine Hui reprimanded to stop the little maid's words, and stretched out her hand to rub the throbbing eyebrows, "Whether this palace is worthy or not is not the turn of a concubine to speak, Yinliu!"

"The servant is here," Yin Liu leaned over to obey the order.

"Here in the Sixth Palace, Tong Jia's offenders will be punished by the palace. The palace will punish her to read Buddhist scriptures in front of the Kunning Palace, pray for the queen of Daxing, and order the concubines of the Sixth Palace to listen to the prayers. Those who are absent will be punished as disrespectful! The maid Huanyue ignored it. According to the palace rules, if you offend the master, you will be punished thirty times!"

"Yes," Yin Liu led down, Concubine Hui exhaled deeply and closed her eyes.

The turmoil in the harem is gradually rising, but the elder brother has not heard the news yet.

Su Wei was sitting on the porch dangling his legs in a daze, but he saw the fourth elder brother who was leaving the palace stepping into the gate with a smile on his face, and shouted at him, "Go and pack up, and come out of the palace with Master!"

Su Wei blinked blankly, changed his clothes and boarded the carriage leaving the palace with the fourth prince and his party.

The carriage left the imperial city and traveled northward, entered the territory of the Xianghuang Banner, and stopped in front of a tall courtyard when it saw the base of the city wall.

Su Wei got out of the carriage and looked up at the gates that were much higher than the surrounding ordinary houses. The courtyard with gray tiles and mud walls was not too prominent, but it was considered solemn.

Su Wei looked left and right, and then at the fourth elder brother, not quite understanding why he was brought here.The fourth elder brother just smiled, raised his head and walked in the door, feeling proud of his success.

Su Wei pursed his lips and followed the fourth elder brother up the steps, and entered the gate with red walls and pillars, but the moment he looked up and saw the verandah of the main hall, he resonated with a certain memory in his previous life. This is Lama Temple.
