Yuqing Palace is located between Fengxian Hall and Zhai Palace on Inner Court East Road. It was built for Prince Yinrong in the eighteenth year of Kangxi. It enters four times through the front star gate, passes through the north Xiangxu gate of the courtyard, and bypasses After the Dun main hall, this is the main hall of Yuqing Palace.
Since Kangxi had just reprimanded several court ladies in Yuqing Palace two days ago, the people who were serving in the palace were becoming more cautious and walking on thin ice. The little eunuch who was guarding the door saw Li Dequan coming with someone from a distance and turned around hurriedly. Go into the hall to report.
As soon as Li Dequan came into the hospital, he saw the little eunuch who was telling the news, but he didn't say anything. With only a usual smile on his face, he walked straight outside the hall before stopping, turning around and looking at the maids he had brought over. , Said loudly: "Being a errand here is not an easy task. You must be careful in your words and deeds, and treat your master well, and don't let down the emperor's grace."
The maids responded in unison: "Yes..."
After hearing the news, Liu Zhong, the chief eunuch of the Yuqing Palace, greeted Li Dequan quickly and greeted Li Dequan first. Then he said with some embarrassment: "The prince is a little uncomfortable. See Mr. Li."
Li Dequan smiled and waved his hand: "It's okay, the old slave just sent a few maids over by the emperor's will, and it will be done by you."
Liu Zhong responded hurriedly and asked someone to lead the maids to settle down. Li Dequan stopped one of the beautiful ladies of the palace, pointed to her and said in a low voice with Liu Zhong: "This is the Suyan girl, and the sister of Qingchuan who had worked in the imperial palace. Qingchuan was leaving the palace. I once asked me to take care of this girl. I thought that Yuqing Palace is a good place. The prince has a generous temperament and has an old relationship with Qingchuan. It is said that if it can be in the eyes of the prince, it will be regarded as her good fortune. Some."
When Liu Zhong listened, he took a look at the words and saw that she was slender, with beautiful features, and a pair of apricot eyes that were moist and clear. At first glance, she looked like a romantic and dexterous. He nodded hurriedly and said, "Li Jingda, rest assured.
Li Dequan smiled and nodded before leaving.
Liu Zhong asked people to take the plain words to settle down, then he turned and entered the inner hall. The prince was standing in front of the book case and was facing the copybook. He caught a glimpse of Liu Zhong coming in and asked nervously, "How is it? Has anyone gone?"
Liu Zhong replied: "In response to the prince, Mr. Li is gone."
The prince breathed a sigh of relief. Kangxi suddenly came to Yuqing Palace two days ago. It happened to see him making fun of several palace ladies in the palace. Kangxi was furious and not only rebuked him severely, but also sent off those palace ladies. Went to Xinzheku. In the past few days, he has been worried about it, for fear that Kangxi will criticize him again. Today, he heard that Li Dequan had come, and he didn't even dare to see him. He only pushed Liu Zhong, the chief eunuch beside him, to deal with it.
The prince thought for a while, and then asked Liu Zhongdao: "What about Huang Ama without telling me? The anger disappeared?"
"I didn't mention the emperor. I only said that the emperor told him to send a few well-known court ladies to serve." Liu Zhong hesitated, then said: "Prince, there is a lady named Su Yan among the court ladies sent this time, saying yes. A good sister of Qingchuan girl, Manager Li also asked the minion to take more care of her."
The prince was a little surprised upon hearing this, "A good sister of Qingchuan?"
Liu Zhong replied hurriedly: "That's what I said."
The prince's eyes lit up immediately, and he smiled and said, "Send her to come in and see me."
Liu Zhong went out and called Su Yan to come in. The prince glanced at Su Yan and saw that she was a little familiar. She had seen her at Qingchuan. He was two points happy. He asked Su Yan and said: "You and Qing Sichuan Jiaotong is good?"
Su Yan lowered his head and narrowed his eyes, and replied softly: "The slave and maidservant used to live in the same house with Qingchuan when he was in the No. 4 Institute of Ganxi. The two of them were congenial and kinder than others."
The prince was very pleased to hear that, and asked Su Yan about his daily preferences in Qingchuan. This was how Su Yan went down and rested, and said: "You will wait by my side from now on."
Su Yan thanked him in a hurry and stepped back. From then on, the prince Dai Suyan was really different from others. This is something for the time being, so I won’t mention it for the time being.
But he said that Li Dequan went out of Yuqing Palace and went back to Qianqing Palace to have a business relationship, and he happened to meet the fourth brother who had just come out of Qianqing Palace. Li Dequan smiled all over his face, stepped forward to please the fourth elder brother, and asked with concern: "The fourth elder brother's leg injury is so good?"
Si elder brother replied: "It's all well, Lao Zhida missed it." With that, he glanced at the direction Li Dequan was coming from, and asked casually, "Do you know that I went to Yuqing Palace?"
"The old slave took a few well-known court ladies to serve the prince in accordance with the emperor's order." He said, looked around and saw that there was no one, then he laughed in a low voice: "Fourth brother, don't worry, what you have explained. The old slave has done it right."
Si elder brother nodded softly when he heard the words, and thanked Li Dequan: "Thank you for your knowledge."
Li Dequan hurriedly avoided avoiding it, and said with a smile: "Four elder brothers are polite."
The two said a few more words, Si elder brother resigned Li Dequan and went out of the palace. When he arrived at the gate of the Yongwang Mansion, he saw several domestic servants holding the red wooden boxes to collect donations. Si elder brother frowned slightly and stepped forward immediately. Asked: "What's the matter?"
One of the servants hurriedly replied, "In response to the fourth master, Fu Jin said that the fourth master worked hard all day to settle the victims, and the people in our mansion should also help, so they asked everyone to collect some silver coins outside the door. , So as to share the worries for the fourth master."
Si elder brother listened to his face a little more relaxed, glanced at the donation box, and asked, "How is the situation?"
The servant smiled and said, "A girl just donated a hundred taels of silver! She didn't even leave her name, but she seems to belong to Mengxianju, hey! Look, they haven't gone far yet!" Point to the end of the street.
Si elder brother looked in the direction he was pointing, and saw a beautifully decorated carriage going away along the street. The person in the carriage also just lifted the curtain and looked back. The eyes of the two of them touched far away, and both were startled. After a while, the person in the car seemed to recover and hurriedly lowered the curtain.
Si elder brother also woke up suddenly, before thinking about it, he shouted: "Qingchuan!" While shouting, he chased the carriage.
The woman in the car was also Qingchuan. She had accompanied Ziyan out to buy things. When she passed by the Yongwang Mansion, she saw someone collecting donations, so she begged Ziyan to donate some silver for her. Thanks to Qingchuan's help, Ziyan became the number one oiran in the capital, so he was almost responsive to Qingchuan. Even though he paid a hundred taels of silver and donated it, he did not think it attracted the attention of the fourth elder brother.
"Hurry up!" Qingchuan hurriedly ordered the driver to drive the car.
Zi Yan didn't know what was going on, and felt a little surprised, and asked Qingchuan, "What's wrong?"
Qingchuan kept her lips still, she just didn't want to meet the fourth elder brother. He already had a wife and a son, and because of his several risks, she almost died. Instead of entangled in this way, it is better to never see each other.
The coachman was ordered by Qingchuan, his whip slapped, urging the horse to run so fast, and in a short while, he arrived in front of the Mengxianju building. Qingchuan jumped out of the car, looked back, and saw that Si elder brother chased him far behind, and hurriedly pulled Ziyan and ran into Mengxianju.
Auntie Jiu was walking from the inside out, she was hit by Qingchuan, and she was about to open her mouth to curse, but Qingchuan grabbed her arm. Qingchuan took her hand and asked anxiously, "Miss Jiu, can you do me a favor?"
Auntie Jiu was taken aback, and asked: "What is busy?"
The fourth elder brother over there had already chased outside the gate. Qingchuan couldn’t talk about it for a while, and hurriedly pulled Jiu Auntie and Zi Yan to the backyard, and when he got outside the Zi Yan’s house, he only said to Zi Yan: "You Stop him for a while!" Then she pulled Jiu Yi Niang into the house and closed the door tightly.
Zi Yan turned around and saw that the young man who had been chasing them had followed them to the backyard. He hurriedly reached out and stopped him. He chuckled and said, "This guest officer, I want to drink and ask the girl to go ahead. I won’t entertain you here. Human."
Si elder brother obviously saw Qingchuan entering Mengxianju with this woman, and said: "I want to see the girl who entered just now, I know her." He wanted to bypass Ziyan and enter the house.
However, Zi Yan stopped from side to side and smiled: "No, she is in poor health and doesn't want to see guests."
Si elder brother didn't want to collide with her, stopped, and only shouted at the house: "Qingchuan, Qingchuan, you come out... What the hell is going on here? Why are you here?"
After a while, the door of the house was suddenly opened from the inside. Aunt Jiu wore Qingchuan's clothes and walked out dressed like Qingchuan, and asked angrily: "Who is screaming at the door?"
Si elder brother raised his eyes and felt a little startled for a while, "You are..."
Auntie Jiu gave him a coquettish look, and said softly: "You just chased me all the way, don't you know who I am? Now that I am out, you can tell me what you want to tell me."
Brother Si frowned and asked: "It was you just now?"
Aunt Jiu smiled, "Who else can there be?"
"Impossible!" said Si elder brother, and pushed Jiu Yi Niang away, and rushed into the house, only to see that the house was empty, where there was Qingchuan's figure. He was also puzzled for a while, could he really read it wrong
Aunt Nine over there leaned against the door frame and sneered, and said, "Don't you think that our ancestors will not donate money? Every hero who slaughters dogs, since ancient times, chivalrous women are born to be kind.
Brother Si didn't speak, and stood in the room for a while before turning away in silence. Seeing that he had gone far, Aunt Jiu deliberately shouted: "Hey, this is going away? Hey, hey, remember to come and join in...
Si elder brother disappeared outside the door without stopping.
Zi Yan looked strange, and walked around the room to look for it, wondering: "Where is Qingchuan?"
Auntie Jiu smiled triumphantly, stepped forward and opened a big suitcase, and said to Qingchuan who was hiding in it, "Come out, he's gone."
Qingchuan stood up, looked at the door, and exhaled heavily.
Zi Yan stepped forward and asked, "Qingchuan, who is this person? You don't look like an ordinary person in dress, do you know him?"
