The daily life of the prime minister of the Qing Dynasty, thick black

Chapter 161 Slap
Gu Huaishu was ill, and had been ill for a few days since returning from Shen Yuan.

Adhering to Gu Huaishu's wishes, Ade asked Aping to chase after the emperor's big ship, but after all, the emperor left after offering sacrifices to the Ming Tomb, and now he was going down the Yangtze River again. I don't know how far I have gone.While chasing, the emperor continued to go eastward, and it really didn't take a while to catch up.

Five days later, the dragon boat of Kangxi's southern tour had already passed Zhenjiang, headed for Changzhou, and would soon pass through Wuxi to the last Suzhou.

Seeing that the sun had already set today, Zhang Tingyu stood on the side of the boat with the emperor and watched, and saw a line of water and sky during the boat, which was really beautiful.

The thirteenth elder brother Yinxiang was talking to the side with a smile, and said he wanted everyone to compose an impromptu poem. It was Zhang Tingyu's turn, he pinched his fingers slightly, and just said: "The first line of Tianshui..."

There was a sudden commotion on the side of the following boat, and San Dezi went down and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Returning to Mr. De, a small boat suddenly came over there and followed all the way, saying that there was a letter to be presented to Mr. Zhang."

"Which... wait, Master Zhang Tingyu?" San Dezi was stunned for a moment.

When Zhang Tingyu heard it, he also turned around and bowed to Kangxi: "Long Live Lord, there seems to be something about a humble minister in the future."

"Go and see if something happened to Jiangning." Kangxi sighed and let Zhang Tingyu go, but then looked at Yinxiang again, "You can change the old thirteen."

Yin Xiang flicked his fan, and said: "It's not a coincidence that Mr. Zhang left, my son's mind is still empty..."

But Zhang Tingyu didn't pay attention to the poetry writing here, he walked along the side of the boat, and saw a small boat approaching under the watchful eyes of a group of guards holding their knives.

The person who sent the letter turned out to be A Ping.

Zhang Tingyu's heart was about to jump out, and he stood stiffly by the side of the boat, as if something had happened.

A Ping didn't know what was written on the letter, so he approached Zhang Tingyu and handed it to Zhang Tingyu: "Second Master, madam told you that I must present the letter to you face to face."

Zhang Tingyu received the letter and hadn't opened it yet, but he felt a little terrified. His hands shook and he asked, "Is Madam alright?"

"No, I just caught a cold. When I left, I invited the doctor. He said it was a minor illness and it would not be a problem." A Ping was afraid that the second master thought that his wife had something to do, so he hurriedly explained it.

Feeling a little more at ease, Zhang Tingyu smiled to himself, thinking all day long, where did so many diseases come from?

He tore open the envelope with his fingers, stood beside the boat, and pulled out a thin sheet of paper, only to find that it was slightly wrinkled, as if the person who sealed the letter had shaken his hands badly.

Zhang Tingyu's heart sank slightly, and as he unfolded the letter, the faint smile on his face disappeared completely.

The surface of the river covered with sunlight could not conceal the coldness all over his body, nor could it conceal the murderous intent that suddenly spread in his heart.

He read Gu Huaishu's crooked words word by word, again, again...

Or the original meaning.

This letter is Gu Huaishu's handwriting, he knows it better than anyone else.

Zhang Tingyu's lips were pursed into a straight line, but it was extremely gloomy and cold.

Yinxiang over there had already finished writing the poem, and turned around to look around the side of the boat, only to see Zhang Tingyu's almost hideous expression.

On weekdays, this second son of the Zhang family is always gentle and gentle, but today he looks like the king of Hades, and Yinxiang never expected such a big change in a single person.He just glanced at it, then withdrew again, thinking about it, he didn't go out after all.

After about a quarter of an hour, Zhang Tingyu let go of his hand, looking at a deep nail mark on the letter paper, which he accidentally pinched off just now.

I can't take care of it anymore, I can't take care of any high-ranking officials, rich salary, official advancement, and standing firm in front of the emperor.

No matter what, he will go back to Jiangning now.

Zhang Tingyu got into the boat and only told Kangxi that something happened to Jiang Ning Gu Huaishu and he wanted to go back to be with his wife.

Kangxi stared at him for a while, and said: "Prince Zhu San hasn't been caught yet, if I can't catch him, I still let you sleep Gu San, now you still have time to go back to accompany her..."

Zhang Tingyu lowered his head, and said: "This matter is very important, and please grant the permission of Long Live Lord. I will come back after finishing my work. Zhu Cihuan has already disappeared, and I will personally supervise and bring it to justice."

"Forget it, you little husband and wife are tossing around. If Zhu Cihuan can't catch you, I won't be polite to you and your wife." Kangxi sipped tea with a relaxed tone, but what he said was enough to scare people's nerves , and then said, "Back off."

"My humble minister thanked the emperor for his kindness, and I will retire."

Zhang Tingyu didn't bother to think about what Kangxi was thinking. After getting off the emperor's dragon boat, he jumped into the small boat and headed for the river. After crossing the river and landing, he immediately picked a fast horse from the post station and drove there day and night. back to catch up.

Gu San's first child is their heart disease, or a heart disease that has no solution and no medicine.

Now there is a sudden turning point, although there are all kinds of dangers hidden in it, but he still wants to go back and suffer like this.

All descendants of the Ming Dynasty, the third prince Zhu, go to hell!

Back and forth, back and forth, no matter how fast he hits the horse, he can't get there in the blink of an eye...

On the day when Zhang Tingyu was rushing back, Gu Huaishu got up from the sick bed, calculated the itinerary with his fingers, thinking that the letter should reach Zhang Tingyu's hands, but there was no news from Li Wei.

Once you get a pair of birthday horoscopes, there should be a result.

She was very disturbed in her heart, and her face was pale, stirring the medicine in the bowl, it was so bitter that people's tongues would fall off, but her heart was also bitter.

As soon as he finished drinking the medicine in the medicine bowl, Ade ran to say that Li Wei had arrived.

Li Wei came in, still a little scared, "Godmother, I got my brother's horoscope."

Gu Huaishu stared at the piece of paper in Li Wei's hand, almost knocked over the dishes on the table, and said, "You take it here...how did you get it?"

Li Weidao: "I watched it for a few days before I realized that Master Shen put my brother's horoscope in the dark compartment behind the study. Although I knew the place, I couldn't get it, so I watched it for a few days. I took my brother to have a fever last night. Both Mr. Zhong and Master Shen went to see it, and then sneaked in to find out."

"fever?"

When Gu Huaishu took the page, he looked up at Li Wei.

Li Wei lowered his head, hesitated for a moment, and said truthfully: "I had a high fever suddenly in the middle of the night yesterday, but it has receded this morning, and Master Shen also went back to his room to rest..."

Taking brother is likely to be seduced by the king of hell at any moment, and everyone should get used to it when the sick are sick.

But every time he got sick, everyone's heart trembled for it, and they were all worried.

What's more, now with my brother...

Li Wei didn't dare to look at Gu Huaishu's expression when he opened the page, he could only catch a glimpse of the tears falling down the back of Gu Huaishu's hand from the corner of his eye.

Gu Huaishu watched, thousands of emotions flooded out in an instant, almost drowning her.

She just watched, unable to speak, covered half of her face with one hand, and said: "Li Wei, go out and wait for me..."

Li Wei bowed and left, not daring to say a word.

This is her child, this is her horoscope after giving birth that day!
Although the person is gone, how can she not remember the child's horoscope?
Shen Chi, what a Shen Chi!
Gu Huaishu recalled all these years of hard work, but he never expected such a day...

She looked at the empty medicine bowl, and when she thought of her son who was almost sick and never had a day of peace, she felt as if a knife was being cut into her heart, and it would be better to cut her into pieces...

Weeping silently, she was only for the joy of regaining what was lost, the sorrow of being separated for eight years...

The house was quiet as if nothing was moving.

When Gu Huaishu came out, she changed her clothes and pulled up a nice hair. Although her complexion was extremely pale, she looked very beautiful. She put on a little makeup to make up for her bad complexion recently.

Qingdai Huamei stood on both sides of her, and the boys in the yard also looked at her.

Gu Huaishu supported Qing Dai's hand, walked down the steps, but said with a smile: "Ade and Li Wei will just follow me, the other people guard the other courtyard, what happens has nothing to do with you."

She went out, got into the sedan chair, and headed towards Shen Yuan.

At the gate of the garden, Gu Huaishu took a look at the man who seemed to be going to report, Li Wei beside him had already gone up smartly and said: "Master Shen invited me, I will just take it in."

The servant saw that it was Li Wei's young master, and quickly stood aside without saying a word.

Just like that, Gu Huaishu went in without anyone notifying her. She walked along the road she was barely familiar with, thinking of the day when Lu Shi led her along the road, and Li Wei was leading her. , soon to the inside.

There are too many roads to walk, if Gu Huaixiu looks carefully, his eyes will be too far away.

But she didn't think about the road in her heart, but about getting her brother.

Gu Huaisu held the birthday note in his hand, and felt that every step was like stepping on a cloud.

She was thinking about how to make up for this child, and how to deal with Shen Chi...

Just turning around the corner of the entrance of the garden in front, two servant girls came in front, still talking in a low voice, said: "Now that Aunt Xian is back, she finally said that she will celebrate my brother's birthday..."

Gu Huaishu's footsteps stopped suddenly, and even Li Wei was also stunned.

The two maids walked a long way before they found Gu Huaishu, and hurriedly bowed to salute: "Hello, Mrs. Zhang."

"...Go."

Gu Huaishu didn't speak, just glanced at Li Wei, and then at the horoscope in his hand.

wrong……

something is wrong...

Aunt Xian, she once met this person in a jade shop and heard her speak.

Aunt Xian...

She looks quite similar to her elder brother, but she has never heard of Shen Qi having such a concubine in the past, at least not in Jiangning.

Gu Huaishu's heart sank, he squeezed the horoscope in his hand, and walked forward.

The journey was quiet and quiet, Gu Huaixiu's footsteps were also silent, suddenly there was the cry of a parrot, and a group of birds hung on the porch.

Standing at the gate of the garden through the flower window, she suddenly saw Shen Chi, who was standing at the bottom of the corridor on the other side, feeding the fish, and Zhong Heng, who was standing beside him with his hands down.

I couldn't get past the front, so I had to change one.

But she had to tell Shen Yang about this matter, and she also wanted to ask what Shen Yang's heart was.

Just when he was about to take a step, Gu Huaishu heard them talking.

Shen Chao squeezed a piece of fish food in his hand and threw it towards the water surface, which soon attracted a group of fish.

He laughed, as if quite happy: "Wangxian finally came back, and he doesn't hate me anymore... I'm planning to celebrate my brother's birthday this year..."

"Master, don't get carried away." Zhong Heng sighed, and said, "Although Aunt Xian is back, there are still a lot of people in your backyard, and sooner or later there will be trouble. Besides, the horoscope..."

"It's okay to sneak by, I'll wait for Mrs. Zhang Er to take the bait... Li Wei is also a good boy, set up a trick, let him jump, and he will jump... I am afraid that Mrs. Zhang now thinks that taking brother is hers." child?"

Shen Qi raised his eyebrows and squinted his eyes again. Ai Ziqing's long gown was worn on him, and he was indescribably mad.

Zhong Heng lowered his eyes and twitched the corners of his lips: "Turn around and tell Mrs. Zhang Er to see Brother Quer. What if she really thought it was Zhang Tingyu's son and was snatched away by you? Brother Quer looks like Auntie Xian, who looks like Auntie Hanging pictures, Aunt Xian is Zhang Ying's favorite jewel, Zhang's second sisters, one by one... Even if you tell her back that it is not her son, she may not believe it."

"Why worry so much? Can someone else snatch my Shen Chao's son?"

Shen Qi snorted coldly, and the corner of his eyes flashed coldly, but he spilled all the fish food in his hand, "With brother Qu, Zhang Tingyu can't run away. He still holds Song Luo in his hand, now Song Luo Nao was also wooed by him... I missed a move. The matter with the Salt Gang has also come to a dead end. Luo Xuanwen is a dog raised by Zhang Tingyu. It bites people like crazy. Swallowed Master's Industry, at least I have to spit it out..."

"Then if this plan works out, take brother, will you give it or not?"

Zhong Heng asked again.

"It's not impossible to give..."

Shen Qi actually laughed and clapped his palms.

"You said that you call my brother my father, and then call Gu San my mother. Gu San is also as beautiful as a flower, or I took advantage... Think about it, this is a freshman? Is the green hat on Zhang Tingyu's head? He can't do it." If you don't hold back, you will be caught, because you are afraid of throwing a mouse. You, Lord Shen, kill three birds with one stone."

"Are you still thinking about Mrs. Zhang Er?" Zhong Heng looked at Shen Chao with a speechless expression.

Shen Chao said: "Think about it, and you haven't paid for it, why should you care?"

He folded his hands behind his head, turned around to talk to Zhong Heng, and then saw Gu Huaishu who walked in step by step from outside the garden gate.

Mrs. Zhang Er specially dressed up and came here today, because she wanted to see her son who had been lost for more than eight years, and she didn't want her son to think that his mother was sick.

The disease is cured, so there is actually an unconcealable paleness on the face.

Her face went from expressionless to smiling.

Step by step.

The lips curl up little by little...

Seeing this, Shen Qi took the hands folded behind his head, but put them down unknowingly, and stood there watching her approach.

Zhong Heng stood aside, as if completely shocked by this scene, unable to speak a word, and Li Wei over there was also shocked.

Everyone was standing, only Gu Huaishu was still walking on the corridor, step by step.

No wonder I saw Aunt Xian so familiar that day. She is Zhang Tingyu's younger sister who married a merchant far away!But I don't know why they got mixed up with Shen Chao, and now they have joined forces to deceive her...

In the jade shop, Aunt Xian said "Beat me since I was born", and then immediately changed her words to "I was born with my brother". Presumably what she wanted to say was "I have given birth to take my brother", but she was talking about someone who was not herself. The child's elder brother was in tears, it was clearly her own son!
Before leaving, Aunt Xian told the maid beside her that everything was settled and everything that should be said was said, and she was told by Shen Qi.

She had doubts at that time, but the news from Li Wei later dispelled all her doubts.

Besides, on the day she came to Shenyuan, she met her elder brother. When Aunt Lu heard that she wanted to meet someone, she mentioned "Aunt Xian".

Aunt Xian, Zhang Wangxian.

Zhang's girl...

Thinking about it, Gu Huaixiu just felt that this great world was too small.

The news from Zhang Tingyu said that Luo Xuanwen had swallowed most of Shen Chao's business in the Salt Gang, if Shen Chao suddenly held Zhang Tingyu's son in his hand at this time, all the problems would be solved easily.

Then, let his brother Jiu occupy the magpie's nest, and let Zhang Tingyu help others raise their son...

Good plan, good plan!
It is worthy of being the Shen Tie Abacus of the famous town of Jiangnan!

Gu Huaishu slowly stopped in his tracks, smiled angrily, and raised his palm high.

"Snapped!"

When Gu Huaishu raised his hand and slapped Shen Yang across the face, Aunt Lu just came in with a tea tray, she covered her mouth in fright when she saw this scene, and knocked everything in her hand to the ground.

Shen Chao turned his face to one side, and after a while he turned his head and stared at her.

Gu Huaishu didn't show mercy, he only let his palms hurt so hot that he could reduce the anger in his heart.

She came full of hope, but she will leave full of disappointment.

What a sickness...

After all, she still couldn't hold it back, and she burst into tears. She stared at Shen Qi for a while, and then turned around: "I've exhausted all my tricks, and I'm bound in a cocoon!"

She walked step by step, and walked step by step, she only took out the handkerchief in her sleeve, and wiped the hand that had just beaten Shen Chi fiercely, until the palm was covered with blood, and then threw the silk handkerchief away.

When the wind blows, the silk handkerchief looks like the hem of Gu Huaixiu's clothes, and it is gone in a flash.

Shen Yang stood stiffly on the spot, five fingerprints on his face were particularly obvious.

He looked at her crumbling back, seeing that Zhong Heng and Aunt Lu were about to come up to help him, but he lightly said: "Get lost."
