The little petite bag of the fourth master of Qingchuan

Chapter 5 Naughty
The ground is full of brilliance, and a bright moon hangs in the dark blue night sky.

The servants removed the hot water for bathing.

After coming out, the fourth elder brother only wore a plain white unlined garment.

He didn't go to the backyard, nor did he tell any women in the backyard.

Just going to be alone in this study.

Sitting down in front of the table, the fourth elder brother was put on a robe by the servants, just flipped through a few volumes of documents, suddenly raised a pair of deep and narrow eyes, and said softly: "Take it out."

Su Peisheng was taken aback for a moment, and a pair of bright, small eyes followed the master's gaze.

When it landed on the censer, Su Peisheng understood.

Fourth master doesn't like the smell of incense in the house.

Su Peisheng quickly carried the plum blossom incense burner to the door, handed it to the little eunuch who was guarding outside, and was amazed in his heart.

In the study in the front yard, this kind of incense has been burning all the time.

Although Fourth Master never said he liked him, he had never been bored by him.

Why did you suddenly lose your appetite?
But right now is not the time to think about such trivial matters, Su Peisheng has one more thing to report.

"Fourth Master."

While the fourth elder brother was drinking tea, Su Peisheng whispered: "That matter... the slave is incompetent, and nothing was found out."

He was referring to the incident where the concubine Gu fell from the small building and lost her head.

The fourth elder brother put down the teacup, but didn't say anything.

This was the result he expected.

This incident happened when he was not in the mansion, not to mention it has been so long.

Coupled with a muddy Fujin, even if there were any traces, they all disappeared at this time.

"But..." Su Peisheng hesitated to speak.

"Say." The fourth elder brother looked up at him.

His face was cold, and even his voice sounded cold.

Su Peisheng didn't dare to speak loudly, so he leaned over and said a few words in a breathy voice.

After finishing speaking, he didn't back away immediately, his eyes rolled round and round, and carefully looked at the expression on the face of the fourth elder brother.

Seeing the slight change in the color of the fourth elder brother's eyes, Su Peisheng smiled apologetically, and said softly: "Master, please don't get angry..."

He only said this, and the fourth elder brother's tone suddenly turned a little cold: "How do you know that the master is angry?"

Su Peisheng's heart tightened, he quickly knelt down, and slapped himself with a "slap!", and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back: "The slave is confused, I just saw that the master didn't say anything, so I thought... "

He suddenly remembered: since the death of the first empress, the fourth elder brother's temperament has become like this.

Emotions and anger are invisible, and he never likes to let people know what is on his mind.

Even if it is a confidant.

Being around the master, being smart is a good thing.

But not too smart.

……

"Get up." The fourth elder brother said lightly.

Putting down the pen, under the light, the outline of Si Age's handsome face was vaguely outlined.

He said indifferently: "Is He Shi really stupid?"

Su Peisheng smiled awkwardly and reminded: "It's Miss Gu, surnamed Gu, fourth master."

have to!Grandpa forgot all the family names.

But it's not surprising, fourth master never put his mind on the relationship between men and women.

In the past few years, Su Peisheng has been by Si Ye's side, so he can see clearly.

Even for his first wife, Fujin, there is more than respect and not enough affection.

Su Peisheng thought: The reason why the fourth master asked to investigate the matter of the concubine Gu was at the root - it was because he hated such unclear things happening in the back house.

"The servant heard: Miss Gu is pretty good when she is sober - she can recognize people and speak a few words; but when she is confused, she tends to pull people around her to be mischievous."

Su Peisheng thought about it.

The fourth elder brother was just listening casually, but when he heard this, he felt a little interesting: "Naughty?"

Su Peisheng intentionally exaggerated to make fun of it: "I heard that a while ago Miss Gu liked to lie on the garden floor to catch ants, and she would spend most of the day catching them; if the maids and old mothers didn't stop her and begged her, she would go down to the pond to catch fish and climb trees. Catching birds..."

The fourth elder brother didn't lift his eyes, but just raised his hand to signal Su Peisheng to retreat.

In the middle of the night, the lights in the study were finally extinguished.

Su Peisheng was finally able to rest until the servant master lay down.

In fact, since the fourth elder brother first entered Shangshufang for a few years, he has maintained such a routine and put all his thoughts on Wen Tao Wu Lue.

Even though he is in a wealthy town, the fourth elder brother has never been as lazy as the young children of the same age in the clan.

Sometimes, Su Peisheng couldn't help admiring when he thought that the fourth elder brother had such a heart and perseverance at such a young age.

Step by step, he retreated outside the house.

The moon is as cool as water under the steps.

……

In Qinqiu Zhai.

The same moonlight shone in from between the panes.

Gu Yaoyao was lying on her bed, thinking about how hard it was to hold Bian Gege back.

Bian Gege wants Fujin to uphold justice for her——this intention is good.

But naive.

After all, Gu Yaoyao is now recognized as a fool by the whole family.

A few words that a fool yells casually can be refuted by others in a blink of an eye.

How much weight?

What's more, if Fujin really wanted to thoroughly investigate this matter, he would have done so long ago.

Where will I wait until today?
Gu Yaoyao thought: Fujin originally wanted to press this matter down.

Right now, even if she followed Bian Gege to find Fujin to uphold justice, Fujin would probably just make big things into small things.

Moreover, if he really went to Fujin, there would be a worse possibility.

That is: No matter who the murderer is, as long as he sees the possibility of being re-examined again, he will inevitably jump over the wall in a hurry.

At that time, Gu Yaoyao's situation will only become more dangerous.

After thinking about it for an unknown amount of time, Gu Yaoyao couldn't help but yawned, feeling a deep sense of sleepiness.

On the soft bed, Gu Yaoyao had a dream, dreaming that she followed the light in front of her eyes and walked into a room in a daze.

To her surprise, this is actually a perfume room!

The walls of the room are filled with raw material cabinets, and bottles and jars are classified according to alcohol, aldehyde, and ketone.

There is also a fragrance table in the middle of the room, which is exactly the same as the fragrance room in the school before time travel.

Gu Yaoyao stood there, dumbfounded.

This is...space?
……

Long night.

It was still dark, and there was a patter of rain outside the window.

After all, it was summer, and it didn't take long before the rain became heavier and heavier-bean-sized raindrops poured on the windows, making a bang bang sound.

The fourth elder brother glanced at the Western clock in the study room - it was actually getting late, but because it was a cloudy and rainy day, the sky didn't mean to light up at all.

It's getting hotter.

The breakfast had already been set up, and there was a bronze tripod in the center of the study, with ice cubes brought from the cold storage in it, emitting a cold air.

Su Peisheng served the fourth elder brother for breakfast, and at the same time watched the little eunuchs packing up the things to be prepared to follow the fourth elder brother into the palace for a while.

The incense in the censer had also been changed, and under Su Peisheng's instruction, it was replaced with a faint agarwood incense.

This is the type that burned in the palace of the former queen all the year round when the fourth elder brother was still living in the palace.

Maybe not brilliant, but definitely not wrong.
