He slowly rubbed the balm in his hands, carefully patted it on his cheeks, and said softly: "Abandoning the car to protect the handsome is something that every smart person understands. Do you think that after this battle, the fourth elder brother will still come into contact with her. ?"
Mother Jin still seemed to understand, but she smiled, and ordered: "Go to the kitchen and take a few catties of walnuts to the eighth elder brother, so she said tonight that the fourth elder brother was angry with the emperor, please Brother help me grind some walnuts, or make a bowl of walnuts for the emperor tomorrow morning."
Mother Jin understood that she was asking herself to send a message to Ba Ge, and she hurriedly took her order.
He looked at himself in the mirror, and whispered softly: "Big brother ah Bah, don't let my palace disappointed."
The eighth elder brother had actually heard the news a long time ago. Seeing that the mother Jin came to deliver the letter again, she didn’t say anything else, just said with a smile: "Please go back and tell the mother, she said that Elder Ba must have done it by himself. She was sent off.” She was rewarded with Mother Jin again, and asked someone to send her out.
Seeing Mother Jin was gone, Ten Elder brother couldn't help but smile: "Fourth brother wanted to put his eyes and ears around Huang Ama, but he didn't think that he would steal the chicken and lose the rice. Haha, it's ridiculous!"
Elder Brother Nine snorted and said: "Tonight, I specially invited Huang Ama to have a barbecue with my starlings. The fourth child looked at Huang Ama and starlings enjoying themselves. Naturally, he couldn't keep it steady, but he couldn't think of four. Fujin actually followed, and staged a good show of catching rape for us all, it was wonderful!"
Eighth elder brother was silent. After listening to nine elder brothers and ten elder brothers talking and laughing for a while, he said: "It's late, you two should also go back to rest early. The fourth brother made Huang Ama angry. Don't call Huang Ama's fire over again."
Elder Brother Nine and Elder Ten stood up to say goodbye when they heard this. Before leaving, Elder Ten turned around again and leaned to the side of Elder Bae with a smile, "Mynah, you tell the truth with Elder Shi, don’t you? Do you really like that Qingchuan? If so, I will get rid of the kid who always clings to her, so that he won't get in the way!"
Eighth elder brother was taken aback, and then he flicked his head with a thud, and smiled: "You don't make trouble for me. I will take care of the Qingchuan matter."
In the early morning of the second day, Xiu brought the walnut dew to Kangxi. While feeding him, she said, "This is freshly ground walnut dew with ambergris, which has the effect of calming the mind and replenishing the heart."
Kangxi took a sip with Xiu's hand, only to feel the taste is sweet and refreshing, and he couldn't help but drank two more sips, then asked: "Ai concubine has the heart, why do you think of doing this?"
Xiu smiled playfully and said, "I am embarrassed to be praised by the emperor with a cheeky, this is the eighth elder brother. When the first concubine came over, he happened to encounter the eighth elder brother outside confessing to the minions. When the concubine saw him, he brought it in. If the emperor likes to eat, he will ask Ba Age to grind more."
Kangxi was silent for a while, and then suddenly asked: "Do you think the fourth child is suspicious of what happened last night?"
He thought for a while and replied: "I dare not say whether there are any suspects, but since the emperor is suspicious, it is better to keep away from him. The emperor has more than one good son."
Kangxi didn't speak, but nodded slowly.
A few days later, Prince Yu, who was in charge of the House of Internal Affairs, resigned, and the seat of the Director of the House of Internal Affairs was vacated. Kangxi had returned to the palace, and at the court meeting, a minister raised this matter. Because it was Si Ge Yinzhen who had been helping Prince Yu to manage the House of Internal Affairs, Long Kodo took the lead in recommending Si Ge Yinzhen, but who knows It was denied by Kangxi, and the House of Internal Affairs was handed over to Ba Age Yinhu for management.
As soon as this happened, it was like water falling into a pan, and it immediately stirred up a burst of excitement in the center. Many people immediately fell to the side of the eighth elder brother when they saw the wind and the rudder. But no matter how everyone flattered the eighth prince, the eighth prince always treated him with a smile on his face. He did not delay studying and martial arts, and it was no different from normal days, except that he had a little more contact with Chu Xiu Palace.
Soon, rumors spread from the palace, saying that the eighth prince fell in love with a little palace lady in Chuxiu Palace.
Longcord sneered and said: "What kind of little palace lady can make the eight princes who have always been forbearing so disproportionate? But it was deliberately released to cover people's ears, and it is obvious that they are united with Chu Xiugong. Up!"
Si elder brother was silent, playing with the wine glass in his hand casually.
Longcord glanced at him, and then persuaded: "Don't blame Sifu Jin anymore. She also blames me because she cares too much about you. I met her when I was in Nanyuan and only thought about her. I can't let you go before I followed it secretly, who knew it would cause such a thing!"
Si elder brother smiled helplessly, and said: "She has blamed me, how can I blame her? Besides, she is a woman in the house, and I don’t blame her if she knows how to fight in the hall. Maybe it’s true. Like Erniang said, life is sometimes necessary at the end, but there is no time to force it."
Longkodo comforted him again: "Don't worry, Uncle will do everything possible to change the emperor's opinion."
Brother Si thanked: "Then there will be Uncle Lao." He thought for a while, and then said, "I have called Jin Zhi into the palace for Lao Ba and Chuxiu Palace. I will talk about the details when she comes back. Right."
Roncordo nodded, "Alright!"
Si elder brother returned to the mansion. Jin Zhi had already returned from the palace, waiting for him in the room. Seeing him back, he was waiting carefully while saying: "Siye, do you guess who I saw when I entered the palace?"
Si elder brother only glanced at her faintly, but did not speak.
Jin Zhi didn’t dare to sell Guanzi, so he continued: “It’s the palace lady we met in the palace and was chased by people called Qingchuan. Does the fourth master still remember her? That time the fourth master was also because of her and Lao Ba got into a dispute."
Si elder brother was slightly startled, and asked: "What's the matter?"
Jin Zhi smiled mysteriously and said: "It turns out that the old ba is fake to deal with her, and the old ba likes her. I took the gift to Chuxiu Palace, and wanted to use the opportunity to apologize to the wife to find out her reaction. When the knot was over, I happened to encounter Qingchuan kicking the shuttlecock with other court ladies in the yard. Niang Niang and Lao Ba were all watching, looking very harmonious."
Jin Zhi glanced at Si elder brother, and continued: "Si elder brother doesn't know, the old saying has been released. It is said that Qingchuan's begging of Xiuyi Niangniang is still Qingchuan. People in Chuxiu Palace said that the two of them are related. Very good, Qingchuan is very protective of Su Yan! Based on my experience of watching theaters for so many years, I think things are like this. Niang Niang has no sons, so she trained a few court ladies, Qingchuan is one, that The one called Su Yan is also one, and then let them seduce different elder brothers. Su Yan failed to seduce you. Qingchuan succeeded in seduce Ba elder brother, so she started to help Ba elder brother with all her strength."
Si elder brother was silent, and after a while, he said, "Although you may not be all right in your guess, Lao Ba is indeed different from others in Qingchuan."
Jin Zhi couldn't help asking: "Then what do you want to do?"
The fourth elder brother stood silently. He and the palace lady named Qingchuan had met several times. Although he had rescued her before, he never put these things in his heart. Until that night, he waited in Yonghe Palace. Outside, I clearly wanted to visit E Niang, but didn't have the courage to step into the gate of Yonghe Palace. Later, when Qingchuan came out with a lantern, she seemed to see his hesitation and cowardice, and she even encouraged him to go in. In her eyes, he saw pity and sympathy for the first time. She said that his wish will surely come true. At that moment, he actually felt that in this world, only the little palace lady in front of him could understand him...
Si elder brother slowly withdrew his mind, and his heart hardened as he inch by inch, and said lightly: "Whether it is true or not, since this palace lady named Qingchuan has connected them together, only she is gone. This contact The excuses are gone."
In Chu Xiu's palace, Su Yan's heart was already in chaos.
When she was making snacks in the small kitchen today, a court lady accidentally ran into her body. In the chaos, she was already stuffed with a note and a small paper bag in her hand. Only the three words "Kill Qingchuan" were written on the note, which was short and clear, and underneath was the code for the connection of Si elder brother with her.
This is the news from Si elder brother to her, but why did Si elder brother kill Qingchuan
Su Yan was puzzled and flustered again, and returned to the room uncertainly. She was detained in the small kitchen for many days. She was punished for trying to get close to the emperor. When she fell into the eyes of everyone, she became a person who wanted to climb high branches. She looked down on her very much, and only Qingchuan treated her kindly. I believe In her explanation, she deliberately pleaded with her and released her from the small kitchen. She was also afraid that she would be bullied by other court ladies, so she deliberately transferred her bed to her own room.
However, she has now received an order to kill Qingchuan.
Suyan had never felt so embarrassed, so she wisely told her to obey Si elder brother's order to kill Qingchuan with this poison, but her conscience told her not to. One is Si elder brother, the other is Qingchuan, reason and conscience are torn apart, for a time, Su Yan only feels that his heart is contradictory!
Su Yan gritted her teeth, didn't she come to the palace just to help Si elder brother? She can't disappoint him! She picked up the kettle on the table, opened the lid, carefully sprinkled the bag of powdered medicine in, and then sat on the stool silently, waiting for Qingchuan to return.
It was getting dark outside, and Qingchuan came back on duty from Chuxiu Palace. Seeing Su Yan sitting in a daze, she wondered: "What's wrong? Su Yan, why are you in a daze?"
Suyan came back abruptly, and hurriedly waved his hand: "It's okay, it's okay."
Qingchuan thought for a while, and then asked, "Is someone bullying you again? Su Yan, don't be afraid, I'll help you!"
When she said this, Su Yan felt even more guilty, and she couldn't speak. When Qingchuan saw that she was bullied by Xinlian, Wanyue and others again, Qingchuan comforted her and said: "Don't pay attention to Xinlian and the others. They have bullied me before. As long as they are not afraid of them, they don't dare. What's going on with you, besides, there is also Niang Niang. If it doesn't work, we will go to her to file a complaint!"
While talking, Qingchuan sat down at the table. When he picked up the teapot and was about to drink, he was suddenly snatched away by Su Yan. Qingchuan was startled, looked at Su Yan curiously, and asked, "Su Yan, what's wrong with you?"
Su Yan said in a concealed manner: "The tea is cold, I'll make you another pot."
After talking about Qingchuan, he took the teapot and ran out quickly. When there was no one in the tea room, Su Yan couldn't help crying. Since she entered the palace, Qingchuan has been the only one who treated her sincerely. But now she wants to kill Qingchuan, how can she do it!
Su Yan cried outside alone for a while, replaced it with clean tea, and then returned to the room. Seeing her red eyes, Qingchuan knew that she had cried outside, but didn't know what was wrong with her, so he asked, "What's wrong with you? Have you cried?"
Suyan shook her head hurriedly, and grudgingly said with a smile: "No, I was blinded by the wind just now and rubbed red." She didn't want to mention this anymore, so she changed the subject and asked: "Today the emperor can go to the bank. Xiugong?"
Qingchuan shook her head, and replied: "The emperor did not come, but the eighth elder brother is here again, and Niang Niang asked me to serve him." As she said, she couldn't help but slap her back with her hand. Angrily said: "The eighth elder brother also makes people not to be tired, he will ask me to serve tea, and then I will pour water, it will be exhausting to me."
Su Yan has been confined in the small kitchen by his wife, so I have never heard of the rumors that the eighth elder brother likes Qingchuan. Hearing that it is said that the eighth elder brother deliberately bullied Qingchuan because of the previous incident, I feel quite right. He couldn't help Qingchuan, and persuaded: "You can bear it for a while, he is an elder brother, as long as you don't confront him, you will not be able to care about you in a few days."
Qingchuan nodded and said, "I understand what you mean, but I don’t understand why Niang Niangniang pushed me to the eighth elder brother. When he heard that the eighth elder brother came to me, she was not angry, but also gave me I’m on vacation and told me to spend time with Ba Ge."
Although Su Yan was smart, he couldn't figure it out for a while, but he suddenly felt a little worried in his heart. If the eighth elder brother and the Xiong Niangniang really get along, it would be extremely detrimental to the fourth elder brother's cause!
The two said a few more words and then stopped. Qingchuan was tired for a day and fell asleep soon after falling down. But Su Yan had no sleep all night, keeping his eyes open until dawn.
