Leisurely Four Fortunes

Chapter 159

"Fourth Master hasn't come back yet?"

Xiaoyi returned to the main courtyard after dealing with the matter of the bereavement.

Although Yao'er is in charge of government affairs, she doesn't do nothing.After she is free, the food and daily life of the whole family falls on her shoulders.

Serving the last eight-treasure mixed soup, she called the scattered children.

"Fu Jin, Master ordered someone to spread the word that he won't be coming back today."

"Oh, back off."

From the tense expression on the fourth master's face before leaving, Xiaoyi also knew that this matter was of great importance.

"Let's eat."

After filling the soup for the children, she picked up the chopsticks.

After the first bite, Yao'er took the lead, and the three brothers and sisters also started to eat.Hong Hui, who had injured his right hand, had some inconvenience in using his left hand. The siblings helped each other, and the speed was not slow.

Xiaoyi ate it mouthful. Although the food still tasted the same, she always subconsciously looked to the left.

That seat was still vacant, without fourth master's dinner, it seemed a little lonely.

Most of life is a habit, unknowingly, Fourth Master once again left shadows in her heart.

Unlike the pain of the previous life, this time it is all sweet and warm memories.

"Emiang, Ama will be back later."

"Well, let's eat first."

**
By the time the table was cleared, the sun had completely set.

The fifteenth day of the moon shone into the courtyard, and the mother and son enjoyed the shade in the pavilion by the lake.The lotus in the courtyard has already been in full bloom, and there is a sense of holiness under the moonlight.

Stepping into the night, Su Peisheng walked over lightly.

"Fu Jin, the servant has found out."

"Say it."

"It's Lord Gao Shiqi. He reported Suo'etu. The emperor was furious and summoned all the civil and military officials to discuss the matter. I heard that the lights in the Qianqing Palace are still on, and the Long Live Lord has not eaten yet."

It was him.

It can be said that Gao Shiqi is on the rise.His family was poor, and he was only the record officer of Zhan Shifu.Later, he fell into Kangxi's eyes and became a secretary in the cabinet.Mechanisms are messy, and he is already the Minister of Rites.At the same time, he has another official, the attendant of the Imperial Academy.

Although the Hanlin Academy is not conspicuous, it is a department that Kangxi trusts very much.And he is also a veritable favorite.

It was such a proud scholar who dealt a fatal blow to Suo'etu under circumstances that no one could have imagined.

"What exactly happened?"

"I heard that Mr. Gao Shiqi entered Suo Xiang's mansion, and he knelt down many times."

That's it, Xiaoyi heard about it in her previous life, but it was actually a trick of good fortune.When Gao Shiqi went there for the first time, it was the anniversary of Sony's death, so he should pay respects and offer incense.And the second time, which caused Kangxi to be furious this time, it should be intentional.

Different from his poverty, Suo'etu is a standard second-generation official, and Sony is the chief assistant of Kangxi's ministers, a veritable power minister.With him around, his son, Suo'etu, was almost on the rise.Even after the retirement, it still has the influence of the past.

Of course he looked down on Gao Shiqi, who came from a mud-legged background, and it was this contempt that became the fuse.

"Did fourth master ever plead for Suo'etu?"

"No."

Xiaoyi breathed a sigh of relief, Fourth Master finally didn't go into that muddy water again.

In his previous life, he had a good relationship with the prince. When Suo'etu fell, the prince was caught in the middle.To intercede for my uncle is to be unfaithful to my father.If you are loyal to your father, you are being unrighteous to your uncle.In the end, it was Si Ye, the almighty young man, who took the blame and took all of Kangxi's anger.

At the same time, the nine clans of the Hesheli family were also preserved.

But as a husband and wife, fourth master is unlucky and she is also unlucky.During that time, how many stares she received when she went out to socialize.

Even with Honghui's health deteriorating, the servants were not dedicated enough.

Forcibly ordering himself to stop, and now fourth master is not in charge, this is a good sign.She will have peaceful days, and fourth master will not be moody due to depression.

"You are tired too, go back and rest first."

A handful of bait was sprinkled, and under the moonlight, the koi in the pond rushed over one after another.

The playful Hongchen simply picked up the bamboo pole and fiddled with it in the water.

"The slave retire."

Su Peisheng stepped back, Xiaoyi also wanted to appreciate the moonlight in the lotus pond.

**
"Fourth brother, what do you mean the prince?"

At the moment of Xu Shi, Kangxi finally let people eat.The fourth master, who knew the way well, gathered at the residence of the fourteenth elder brother.

Although married, the two of them did not move out.

Wan Yan warmly entertained this fourth brother, she and their whole family liked this uncle of the same mother very much.Not because of his title of prince, nor because of his extensive connections, but because of him, he respected his first wife for fourteen years.

As the most favored Princess of Wanyan's family, she is the treasure in the palm of Ama Erniang.She had a good life, and the old general Wanyan and Fujin who held the military power felt comfortable.

As for the mother-in-law, she said that she was more afraid of dealing with the rumored extremely powerful Wu Ya clan than listening to a few broken words.So after learning about the affair between the fourth sister-in-law and her mother-in-law, she became even closer to the fourth brother's family.

Hearing that the fourth brother is coming today, she deliberately cooks for herself.Now with a sincere smile on his face, he cooks the dishes himself.

"Fourth brother doesn't come often, so he should treat him well. It's just that my cooking is not as good as fourth sister-in-law's. Please don't dislike me."

Before Si Ye could say anything, Fourteen spoke quickly: "Yan'er needs to practice this skill, otherwise, how could I have the nerve to entertain Fourth Brother?"

Wanyan smiled gently, but stretched out the hand under the sleeve, and pinched Fourteenth Elder Brother's waist.

"you……."

"I know I made a mistake, so I'll go down and practice harder."

How can fourth master and thirteenth elder brother fail to see the mystery of this, but they will not expose the fun between husband and wife.

Shi Shi of Wanyan stepped back, and the fourteenth master jumped up, pointing at her back: "This girl has gone against the sky, I must revive her husband. You, take this dish down and let her Do it twice."

After speaking, he seemed to feel that the punishment was not severe enough, so he stretched out an extra finger: "Three times."

"Yes."

Wanyan turned back, put down the dishes, and retreated obediently, Elder Fourteen looked at the two brothers.

The eagerness in his eyes is very clear, why don't you stop me and give me a step down.

The door closed with a creak, and Brother Thirteen picked up a dish with chopsticks.

"Fourteenth brother, my siblings are actually pretty good at crafting."

The fourth master nodded seriously: "The taste is already very good, not worse than the royal chef in the palace."

Elder Fourteen had some regrets in his eyes, but in front of the two elder brothers, he said stiffly: "How can this be used to entertain you?"

When he saw the Buddha jumping over the wall served in the three plates, his regret reached its peak.

The last time he grew a face in front of his brother, the price was that he ate up all the leftovers.Before that, no other dishes are allowed.

Those three days and three nights were the darkest time in his life.

"Fourth brother, what do you mean by the prince?"

Fourth Master picked up a dish with chopsticks: "He wants me to intercede with Suo'etu."

The fourteenth elder brother didn't care about other things, and jumped up: "Isn't this pushing you to jump into the fire pit? Fourth brother, you must not jump. Compared with the prince, we are the best brothers, My brother advises you not to do stupid things."

Fourth master was very moved. The two brothers really cared about him.

So he made it clear: "Don't worry, I didn't speak just now, and I won't speak later."

"Then I'm relieved. Come on, everyone eat more. I guess we'll have to talk about it late, and I can't bear it if I don't eat more."

Brother Fourteen put it on the plates of the two of them, he only hoped that they would consume more.

In this way, he can save a meal of leftovers later.

"It's over so soon, Cuiping, serve."

Another table full of dishes was served, looking at Fujin smiling at him, Elder Fourteen felt that the world was dark.

With so much, it must take ten days and half a month to eat.

He regretted it, is it okay to hug his thigh now?

**
Without Fourth Master's intervention, no one would go through fire and water for the crown prince and expose the emperor's rebellion at this time.

Kangxi had been prepared for a long time, and the evidence of Suo'etu's crimes was clear.

In the end, he became "the number one sinner in the world".

During the whole process, the prince stood at the front of the line of brothers in a daze.He clenched his fists and didn't say a word.

Fourth master rode back home, the night wind blew, bringing noisy sounds from afar.

The result of the Hesheli family's treatment was a little more serious than in the previous life, but it was not to the extent of punishing the nine clans.

The prosperity and magnificence of the past has completely disappeared in just one day.

"Grandfather is back?"

As soon as he entered the main courtyard, he saw Xiaoyi coming out of the wing room.

Seeing the surprise in her eyes clearly, all his fatigue from the day disappeared.

No matter rich or poor, high or low, he will always shield her from the wind and rain, let her live a comfortable life, and never suffer the pain of the Hesheli House.

"Well, haven't you slept yet?"

"The children go to bed late, especially Chen'er is very excited."

"It's late at night, let's go in and talk."

Xiaoyi was a little hesitant when fourth master held her hand, and became obedient after a while.Anyway, there is no one around, and this feeling seems to be really good.

"How did Huang Ama deal with the Hesheli family?"

"Why don't you ask if you have pleaded for them?"

Under the candlelight, Xiaoyi turned around and faced him: "I have four of our mothers in my heart, so I won't do such a desperate thing."

"Well, the family is confiscated and dismissed from office, and the children of the family are not allowed to hire."

"It's always a good thing to stay alive..."

Even though she said this, Xiaoyi knew that, compared to beheading, the real pain is when a formerly high and mighty person falls into the dust.And this kind of pain will become more intense with the beginning of tomorrow's new life.

No matter where they are in the future, when they think of their previous rich life, they will be tortured by a severe gap.

"Yeah, they still have hope."

"My lord is saying that the world is amnesty."

Fourth master nodded, although he knew it was impossible.But the Hesheli House and the prince should all think so.

After changing his clothes, he and Xiaoyi sat side by side, soaking their feet in the basin.

"What happened this time is actually related to Niu Gulu's family."

Xiaoyi was puzzled: "Niu Colu Jinzhu?"

"That's right, she thought she was smart and directed a miracle of the Buddha's birth in Yuqing Palace."

How could there be such a person? Xiaoyi knew that Jinzhu had recovered the memory of being the queen mother in her previous life, so she knew some of the tricks.But she really didn't expect that she would be so unclear that she would use it up.

And, "She has only been in the palace for a month and a half, how could there be such a big commotion."

Fourth Master stirred the water in the wooden basin: "There is not much movement, Master guesses that the prince is also confused."

"how to explain?"

"Do you still remember the incident when Yuqing Palace was struck by lightning? Although Hongxi took the blame, the crown prince has always wanted to completely eliminate the impact of this matter. Therefore, he will provide convenience for Niu Gulu. Don't be too deliberate, Just a little bit."

Sure enough, the IQs of the two were on the same level, and Xiaoyi expressed her understanding.

"Isn't this the heart of Zhahuang Ama?"

The fourth master sighed: "There is no way, the relationship between the young and vigorous prince and the frail emperor, the old and the new, cannot be too harmonious."

"It's obvious that the prince is at a disadvantage."

Fourth master didn't answer right away, after a while, when Xiaoyi thought he would not answer again, he stretched out his foot.

Wipe it off with a cloth towel and put her on the bed.

Covering his body, he whispered in her ear: "Huang Ama's body is not very good. When he personally conquered Galdan in 36, the malaria had hurt his foundation. In the past few years, the Qing Dynasty set up a customs office. Well, the more money he has, the more ideas he has, and the whole person is too busy. So now, his whole person is actually much more decayed than in his previous life."

Xiaoyi was completely astonished, is this so?Aging emperors will not let go of these thousands of miles of land, because they are nostalgic for the feeling that power is overwhelming the world, but they will double their power in their hands.

"So now, the prince's situation is even worse than in his previous life."

This time, fourth master really didn't say anything more. What he replied to her was a group of fiery kisses.

In the passion, she only had time to remind.

"Master, take it easy, you have to go to court on time tomorrow."

"kindness."

**
When Xiaoyi woke up again, fourth master had already put on his clothes.

"Grandpa may help the prince recently."

"Oh."

Agreeing casually, Xiaoyi digested this sentence in her mind.Something is wrong, what does this mean, a smart, she is wide awake.

"What's your plan, grandpa?"

"If you uproot the Hesheli family, Huang Ama will definitely feel sorry for the prince. If you want to fight for the big position, you must not be too stupid. At this time, it is easier to help the helpless prince and give him help. Brothers and friends are respectful. impression."

As expected of fourth master, she shouldn't worry about him.Because this person, in politics, will never be calculated by others.

"When the concubine enters the palace, she will go to greet the princess."

Sure enough, Fourth Master showed a satisfied smile on his face, "Well, if you don't want to, you don't have to wrong yourself. It's enough to have Master alone, and no one will say anything about you."

This man is really thoughtful when he cares about people.Xiaoyi is somewhat useful, but she will still do what should be done.

"Don't worry, Lord, this concubine knows well."

Picking up the clothes and putting them on, she slowly adapted to her sore body.

"Last night, weren't you so tired that you were about to faint?"

What?Xiaoyi didn't react until he pulled her collar away, stroking her collarbone with a cool hand.

"There are no traces. It's really strange. Let's take a look again."

Slowly, he pulled off the clothes she was wearing, revealing her jade body in obscene clothes.Turn it over and check the back and thighs. The marks there are already very clear, and you can't see it unless you look carefully.

"what on earth is it?"

There was banter and doubt in his eyes, at first Xiaoyi thought that he was going to be in heat early in the morning, but when she heard him talking to herself, she realized that she was one head and two big.

It's over, it's over, it's over, the secret she's been hiding all along, the body transformed by the elixir, unexpectedly let him see the clue.With his cleverness, he will definitely know more if he thinks about it.

What should she do now?
