Siyefu

Behind the rockery in the East Garden, Su Wei was wandering around bored. The weather in autumn is quite refreshing, but there are no fruit trees in the garden of Baylor Mansion, and Su Wei misses the bright yellow plums in the village.

"Eunuch Su," Shiyue in a goose yellow silk skirt jumped up behind Su Wei, making Su Wei jump in fright. "Shiyue," Su Wei patted his chest in shock, amused Shiyue, "Why are you so careless, why did you come to me?"

Su Wei scratched his head with a smirk, and handed the bundle in his hand to Shiyue, "I brought it back for you outside the customs. They are all high-quality rabbit skins. You can make a jacket for winter wear."

"Really?" Shiyue took the bag and opened it to take a look, "This skin color is really good, I don't need so much for myself, I will make you a vest later."

"I don't need it, I have enough clothes," Su Wei waved his hands hastily, "I have something else to trouble you."

Shiyue pursed her lips when she heard the words, glanced at Su Wei, and said leisurely, "I just said, I suddenly gave me something... Tell me, what's the matter?"

Yonghe Palace

The fourth elder brother brought Fujin into the palace to greet him. The main hall was replaced with brand-new mahogany tables and chairs with carved larks and roses, half-person-high bean green vases with rose patterns, and a golden stove with octagonal patterns on red sandalwood bottoms, which made the room elegant and fragrant. .

The fourth elder brother and Fujin sat down after seeing the ceremony, Fujin looked at the light and clear golden burner and said, "What kind of incense is this Er Niang burning? It smells so light and refreshing."

Concubine De smiled, "It's Wu Chenxiang newly prepared by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. It said that it was mixed with several kinds of flower juices. Er Niang tried it well and has been using it all the time. It can soothe the nerves, and it is also elegant and pure. If you like it, wait a while." I'll bring some back for you."

"Then I would like to thank Er Niang," Fujin said with a slight nod.

The fourth elder brother looked at Fujin, curled his lips and said, "My son hasn't come to say hello to Er Niang for a while, and Er Niang only has Fujin in her eyes."

Concubine De was amused by the fourth elder brother, so she straightened her expression and said, "You boys are busy all day long, so Fujin comes to accompany Er Niang from time to time, and Er Niang naturally values ​​Fujin more. How many times do you go?" Yue, it's not easy to go back to the mansion, so it's better to spend more time with Fujin."

"Yes," the fourth elder brother bowed slightly, "How is Er Niang doing recently? After my son heard about the incident in Yanxi Palace, Er Niang took care of the affairs of the East Sixth Palace. The harem has always been troublesome, and my son is afraid that Er Niang will be troubled." .”

"Don't worry," Concubine De said calmly, "The harem is full of miscellaneous tasks. With the help of servants, Er Niang can't be tired. Only recently, your fifth younger sister's marriage has been put on the agenda, so Er Niang is more busy."

"Fifth Sister's marriage?" The fourth elder brother raised his eyebrows slightly, "When my son accompanied Huang Ama on his north tour, Ke Jing added a lot of dowry to Fifth Sister, but I don't know which one Huang Ama is interested in? My son is in court these days. I haven't heard Huang Ama mention it before."

Concubine De breathed a sigh of relief, "Emiang also heard from the Queen Mother. Your Huang Ama hasn't formally drafted a decree yet. But God is sorry, the Queen Mother is reluctant to let your fifth sister marry too far away, so she chose someone from Beijing. People."

"Really?" The fourth elder brother showed joy, "I'm still thinking, if it's like Kejing and the others, I will ask Huang Ama for an order to escort the fifth sister to get married all the way. It can't be better, when my sister has something to do in the future, my son can take care of her nearby, so Er Niang doesn't have to suffer from homesickness anymore."

Concubine De nodded in relief, but there was a trace of sadness between her brows.

Fujin blinked suspiciously, "Is Er Niang worried? But Fifth Sister's son-in-law is not satisfied?"

Concubine De sighed, turned her eyes to the fourth elder brother, and said cautiously, "I can't say I'm dissatisfied. In terms of family background, I can be said to be a dignitary, but..."

"Emiang can just say what she has to say," said the fourth elder brother sincerely.

Concubine De pursed her lips, straightened her body slightly, "Your Empress Ama told you Fifth Sister was referring to Shun Anyan, the son of Luanyi envoy Ye Keshu, and the grandson of Tong Guowei."

Mingxiang Mansion

A window of the study room was opened by a servant on duty, and a pot of dwarf pine slightly exposed its branches on the window edge.Beside the shelf full of books and scrolls, an old man with gray temples and a slightly curvy body stood with his hands behind his back. On the white wall opposite him hung a picture of Zhuhe style characters with slightly raised strokes.

"Second Young Master," the servant saluted the visitor.

Nalan Kuixu nodded slightly, and walked straight behind the old man in the house, "Ama."

Nalan Mingzhu calmed down, put his hands into his sleeves, "How are things going?"

"Don't worry, Ama," Nalan Kuixu bowed his head slightly, "We have paid off most of our family's loan in four installments, and the rest is no longer conspicuous."

Nalan Mingzhu nodded, "That's good. Sooner or later, the Guangshanku incident will become a problem. It's safest for us to put it aside in a moderate manner."

Nalan Kuixu pursed his lips, raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Ama, the eighth elder brother is valued by the emperor anyway, why don't we sell his favor? He has a close relationship with the elder brother, so he won our favor." Good thing, maybe in the future I will be able to support Big Brother wholeheartedly."

Nalan Mingzhu turned around, looked at Nalan Kui coldly and said, "People's hearts are not as simple as you think? The eighth elder brother has been in the palace for more than ten years, and he is obedient to the eldest elder brother. It wasn't until he left the palace to build a mansion that he quietly started his own calculations. How could such a forbearing and cunning person give up his heart to others so easily? Now that the dispute between the elder brother and the prince is like boiling water in a urn, is it wise to bring such a person in? lift!"

"My son knows his mistake," Nalan Kuixu was slightly taken aback, and quickly bowed.

Nalan Mingzhu turned back silently, and said in a calm voice, "You are not too old, and you will do more than your brain in the future."

"Yes," Nalan Kuixu leaned over for a moment, looked up and saw Ama was still staring at the writing on the wall, and silently bowed his head to leave.The moment he left the house, a chill appeared in his eyes, he absolutely didn't want to live under the master of that word for the rest of his life.Nalan Rongruo, sooner or later, everyone will admit that my achievements far exceed yours.

Si Ye's back house

Mother Feng came out of the West Secondary Hospital, and ran into a few little maids who were joking.

"Nurse Feng, get out," the leader Xu'er greeted with a smile.

"Yes, yes," Nanny Feng nodded her head twice and leaned against the wall.

"Hey, Nurse Feng, you just came to help us look at the shoes." Xu'er moved up to Nurse Feng and opened her basket, "This is a good fabric that Fujin rewarded, I don't want to be blind. "

"That's right, ask Nanny Feng to take a look," chirped several little maidservants around, Nanny Feng flicked from side to side cautiously, and refused indistinctly, "Next time, next time!" time."

"What are you doing?" A clear voice interrupted the chaotic words, and Shiyue came out from the side door in Fujin courtyard.

Xu'er came forward with a smile on her face and said, "We want Nanny Feng to look at the shoes. Nanny Feng is about to go out."

"Oh," Shiyue looked at Nanny Feng, and Nanny Feng smiled at Shiyue, and stepped back imperceptibly with one hand pinching her cuff.

"It's like returning the shoes. You can see that Nanny Feng's clothes are exquisite, and even the patterns on the cuffs are rare." Shiyue smiled and said, and stepped forward to pull away Nanny Feng's hand. The hairpin fell to the ground.

Imperial Palace Maoqin Hall

The fourth elder brother sat on the side chair in the main hall, holding Yinxiang and Yinti's homework in his hand, flipping through them page by page.

Yinxiang stood next to the fourth elder brother, asking for advice on some unclear points from time to time, and the fourth elder brother explained them one by one.

The fourteenth elder brother sat far away at the entrance of the hall, with a flat mouth and a sullen face, looking outside the door from time to time.

Putting down Yinxiang's homework, the fourth elder brother looked up at Yinti, and raised his voice steadily, "Come here, what are you doing sitting there?"

The fourteenth elder brother pursed his lips, and walked slowly to the fourth elder brother. The fourth elder brother glanced at him, "You have improved a lot in your homework. It seems that it is good for Er Niang to ask someone to supervise you."

"I—" Elder Fourteen puffed out his chest unconvinced, "I worked hard by myself, no one is watching!"

"Really?" Fourth elder brother raised his eyebrows in disbelief, "Aren't you surrounded by Er Niang's people?"

"I changed it a long time ago," Elder Fourteen said with his hands on his hips. "I beat up all those disobedient ones and kicked them out. The rest are all brought in by me and trained by myself!"

The fourth elder brother smiled slantingly, "That's not too bad, at least I didn't ask someone to come."

"Who cares!" Yinti pursed his mouth and muttered a few words, "I was just confused for a while, if you really give it to me, I don't want it..."

The fourth elder brother glared at him, "Let's not talk about that, the fifth sister is about to get married, and you are ready to prepare, as brothers, we have to add some makeup to the younger sister. If you have any inconvenience in the palace, send someone to follow her I said, I will buy some for you outside the palace."

Yinti thought for a moment after hearing the words, then nodded obediently.

Fujin house

Nanny Feng was kneeling in the center of the main hall, Fujin was sitting in the center, and Mrs. Song and Mrs. Li were sitting on both sides.

Dagege's gold hairpins and silver ornaments were turned out, and fake ones were checked one by one. In a short while, there were already more than ten pieces.

Fujin's expression was cold, and he slapped the table with one hand, "Bastard slave, who gave you the courage to put your thoughts on Ge Ge's head?"

"Forgive Fujin, forgive sin Fujin," Nanny Feng knocked her head on the ground several times in a row, "This servant is delusional and confused for a while, please forgive me, I will never dare again, forgive sin Fujin..."

Fujin turned his head aside, "Now I know how to beg for mercy, why don't you know how to be afraid when you cheat the master by relying on the old?"

Mother Feng was so startled that her nose was full of tears, she walked a few steps on her knees, "My servant is wrong, I deserve to die, I beg Fujin for mercy, my servant's family is full of old and weak women and children, this servant really has nothing to do..."

"Okay!" Fujin interrupted Nanny Feng's cry, "Put away your grievances! Come on, give me thirty sticks, and drive out of the mansion!"

After entering the gate of the courtyard, Su Wei and Xiao Erge squatted face to face, and the wailing in the courtyard was very penetrating.

Xiao Erge pursed his lips and shook his head, "The beating is still too light, look at how powerful this old nanny's voice is."

Su Wei swept the ashes off his boots, "This man is just trying to torture himself."

"Eunuch Su, Eunuch Xiao," Tang Wu rushed over like a monkey, "All Da Gege's things have been redeemed, and the silversmith's shop did not dare to be used for other purposes at all."

"That's natural," Su Wei took a bag of things from Tang Wu's hand, and several people looked at each other and smiled.

While talking, Nanny Feng was carried out by two servants after being tortured by the cane. The cane is usually bruised and nothing can be seen on the outside.

Tang Wu leaned forward with a smirk on his face, "Hey, Mother Feng is sick?"

Nanny Feng with a pale face pursed her lips, unable to speak for a long time, her narrowed eyes swept from Tang Wu to Xiao Erge, and finally landed on Su Wei.
