The Old Summer Palace suddenly became an iron bucket, only those who went in, and those who did not come out. ωωω.? ωχ?. σяg Are you still watching today? At first glance, it looks no different from before, but when you think about it, there are always people who feel weak in their hearts.

The fourth master closed the Old Summer Palace, as if he planned to spend the year here, and let people renovate the Qinzheng Palace. When she saw the memorabilia sent by the Construction Division and the Fengchen Hall to repair the palace for her to use the seal, she realized that he really planned to spend the New Year here.

Probably just like the gold festival, the palace kowtows to the throne, and the Old Summer Palace is a person who is a cronie.

Yuyan was stunned when she saw her master holding this book, and had to remind: "Master, Zhang Qilin is waiting outside." ”

Li Wei came back to her senses before she hurriedly stamped it, handed it to Yuyan and said, "Send it over quickly." ”

Because Chang Qing has been staying in the Forbidden City to guard the Yongshou Palace, the fourth master gave Zhang Qilin to her again. And because of the complicated things before the Chinese New Year, he moved here, and many things in the inner court also had to go from here, so she slowly had a lot of official affairs here.

As he spoke, Zhang Qilin brought in a load of account books, and showed her the first two general ledgers.

This is this year's palace before the New Year reward and distribution, she used the seal here and returned to the palace, the palace can use this to knock on the door of the palace treasury, and the internal affairs government also relies on this to transfer gold and silver money into the palaces.

For example, the clothes of the palace maid and eunuch, etc., she only needs to count the number of individuals, and then the total number of distributions can be stamped.

However, Ningshou Palace, Changchun Palace and Brother have to be reconciled with each other.

After seeing Hongyu in the Qinzheng Palace, the fourth master suddenly said: "You have been calculating accounts in the household department for almost a year, and you are just going to help your mother, and she has a lot of things there." ”

The second monk of Hongyu was confused, and turned to Jiuzhou Qingyan, who turned to the back, and when he entered the house, the first thing he saw was two dogs and a bird lying on the smoker to warm up and eat chestnuts. Momofuku and Zaohua lay on their stomachs in the kennel, and the crow crouched on a lantern stand about a foot high, one of its wings could not be fully closed, and it hung half-down at its side.

There was a small basket hanging on the shelf, and inside was chestnuts, and the crow picked one up, and it was hard to see how hard it worked, but anyway, after a while, I saw that two halves of the extraordinarily neat shell fell, and the chestnut kernel was swallowed by it.

In the afternoon, even Hongyun and Hongshi were called. Li Wei saw that there was so much labor, so she casually took the detailed account of the rewards to Erhe.

These days, Li Wei did not call Erhe to the garden. Although she often asked people to go to the princess's mansion to see her, she didn't call people into the garden, which was originally a bad signal. Hongshi said: "My sister said, saying that she is fine in the princess's mansion, and she will take good care of herself, so that Eniang, you can rest assured." ”

Li Wei hummed and touched Hongshi's head.

At this time, the fourth master made it loose on the outside and tight on the inside, and the sons tried to take them with him as much as possible, and the daughters asked them to stay in the house and not come out. Before the Queen Mother wanted to return to the palace, the fourth master was still unhappy, basically implying that there were unscrupulous people in the shadows now, and he would wait for him to capture these people.

At that time, no one knew what the mother and son had in their secret conversation, but when they went to bed that night, the fourth master hugged her and said, "I will never let go of these restless guys......"

She didn't know what to say.

The fourth master has obviously been talking to her more and more these days, and sometimes he thinks of where to say it.

For example, Li Wenbi has been in Beijing for almost two years, and he said: "I think that there are many garrisons in Zhili, and after I come back from this trip, I want to move the garrison in Zhili, and I am afraid that it will be unstable over there, so I will let your father come back first, so as not to be stirred in." "In the past six months, there have been too many dog-eat-dog bites over there in Zhili.

For another example, this poisoning, he was able to say very rationally: "I don't think they expected it to really succeed, it is estimated that the poisoning is just a game set up by them, and the situation behind them is what they want." ”

The liquor that day was drunk in two types: Yuquan and Huiquan. The eunuch of the wine warehouse opened the warehouse and took out the wine, which was randomly drawn, and the original intention was to avoid poisoning to the greatest extent.

After the wine was taken out, no one knew which urn was opened for Banzai to drink on the same day. However, after opening it that day, the first one to drink was definitely not the fourth master, but the eunuch who opened the urn and tasted the food. They all have a good tongue, not just to test the poison, but if something is added to the wine, the eunuch who opened the urn has tasted more wine than he has eaten since he did it, and he can taste it as soon as it enters his throat, what year it is, where it was produced, how many years it has been stored, what kind of water it uses, where it has been grain, and so on. Some can even taste the secret recipe for sake brewing.

It's the same with the eunuchs, a total of eight people tasted together, and eight people died together in an accident.

Now these people have also been taken.

In fact, after Li Wei heard this, she thought in her heart that maybe this poison was not in the wine urn, but in the wine jug. So these people should all be innocent.

The fourth master also thought so, but he couldn't help it. He sighed, "Now that the confession has not been asked, I cannot guarantee that they are all innocent." and all that were waiting at the table that day were taken. ”

Including Su Peisheng.

Li Wei still has a lot of loyalty to Duke Su. This person usually has eyes above the top, and it can be said that except for the fourth master, no one else is in his eyes. If someone can make him betray the fourth master, she doesn't believe it. He can be the chief manager of the fourth master's side, who else can give a eunuch a higher status and power than this?

What's more, the fourth master also re-ranked the eunuchs, he was the first fourth-grade eunuch since the Qing Dynasty, and the first eunuch to wear a peacock tonic suit.

With Su Peisheng's character, it is estimated that he would be willing to put on that dress and let him die for the fourth master.

The confession was sent two days later, and the fourth master did not avoid her, and gave it to her after reading it. These people who confessed were tortured three times a day, and basically had to stay up until Zuihou. As long as you don't die, maybe you will see the light of day again.

But this must be someone who the fourth master really trusts, otherwise those who know this kind of secret, if it is not particularly important, will die cleaner.

The first thing Li Wei looked at was the two little eunuchs who were holding the pot and pouring wine together that day. The confession will include the date, time, transcript, torturer, prison officer (to prevent death from severe punishment), and an introduction to the torture equipment.

She hurriedly skipped the first page and started directly from the second page.

The confessions of the first two little eunuchs were the same. They are all people who have been waiting in the garden for a lifetime, from the time the garden was given to the fourth master in the year of Kangxi, and they came in when they were seven or eight years old. has been working in the dining room, at first just doing some errands of chopping wood and carrying water, and slowly fighting from dozens of little eunuchs, so that he can wait in front of the master. Even so, from passing the food to holding the pot and pouring the wine, this is another advancement.

The three little eunuchs have indeed known each other since childhood, and although their hometowns are different, their parents and relatives can't be found. Since entering the palace, he has been a bare pole, and he has eaten himself and the whole family is not hungry. The little eunuch who hanged himself should indeed not have committed suicide, because after waiting at the autumn banquet, they discussed taking the reward silver and going to Bada Hutong to play another day.

Li Wei almost thought she was wrong when she saw this.

The question was to dig out the eight generations of these people's ancestors, including the most inconspicuous trivial things in ordinary times, and the most unspeakable secrets in the depths of their hearts.

Later, it was said that the eunuchs also fell in love with the kiln, and as long as they paid for it, they could let the women serve and wait, and the women there were experienced in a hundred battles, and they were not afraid of playing with toys.

Li Wei saw that there were more than a dozen pages in the back, and she was impatient to read it, so she directly asked the fourth master if there was anything worth caring about in this confession.

The fourth master said: "There is one, there is a kiln sister in the kiln where these eunuchs often go and inquired that there is a good place to go, which should be to entertain those young masters who have never seen the market and sneaked out of the house." It's easier to go with those people than in the kiln, it's just not convenient to go. Sister Yao saw that they were eunuchs, and wanted to ask them to help forge a household registration, pretending to be a good family, so as to earn this easy money. ”

He said lightly: "I have already asked people to take people." ”

Outside the fence, there was a ghost crying wolf, and the prostitutes who were driven out of it with their white flesh shaking their white flowers were stopped by the soldiers of the Yamen, the commander of the infantry army, and they couldn't get out without taking off a layer of skin. One by one, they begged their grandfathers to tell their grandmothers, and they looked around the lively inside and outside three times.

The two brothers, Tafo and Feiyangu, each with their own ticket holders, did not guard the entrance of the street, but stayed in the alley, and when one came to the side, he asked about his family history, and if he was a civilian, he let go, and as soon as he was held down, he shouted: "Do you know who I am?!" ”

Tafo and Feiyangu's soldiers grinned and raised their heads and shouted, "Chief! Here's another one! ”

Tafo and Feiyangu were different from these soldiers, as soon as they came, they were dressed in mink furs, and they looked rich and noble. And because after marrying a daughter-in-law, she cleaned up more humanely, her life went smoothly, and her temperament seemed unusual. He used to be like a hooligan, but now he is like a good bandit and a thief - he has changed his career to be a good person.

The soldiers and ruffians were so bad that they took away all the clothes on this person's body in the morning, and on this snowy day, it was not a good experience to be bare-backed and assy, and this person who just shouted himself Ama was who, what kind of person was his grandfather, and the little young master of his grandfather dragged down his blue nose for a while.

Ta Fu was still holding the stove in his hand, and asked slowly and calmly: "Don't worry, master, we are also out of tolerance, and we should ask clearly according to the rules." Where do you think your home is? ”

The little young master has come back to his senses now, if he says which family he belongs to, then these officials will send him back to the house with great fanfare, and he Ama can beat his ass into eight petals! When he Ama and his uncles and uncles went to the court, and when they heard this kind of rumor again, their faces would be really embarrassed!

The little young master didn't dare to report his family now, so he changed his mouth to say that he was a civilian, said the name and home address of his brother, and said forcefully: "You go and check!" What I said is true! ”

Basically, there are a number of ordinary people that these little young masters can know, not to mention that they didn't just ask this one, and immediately a soldier lied: "My brother lives on that street, isn't the family you said is a subordinate in Ilari's house?" ”

The little young master was immediately stuck, and Ta Fu said with a smile: "Maybe you are mistaken, come here, go to that street to look for it." ”

The little master can see that this is a kind person! stepped forward and grabbed Tafu and begged: "Good grandfather, spare me this time!" My family knows they can't spare me! ”

Ta Fu was embarrassed and hesitated, and now the soldiers behind him were not happy, and quarreled and said:

"Head, if you let one more go, we'll do it for nothing!"

"We're kind! I just let go of a lot! ”

"Head, you have such a good heart, if you don't take any of them back, we should be beaten!"

Fei Yangu came up at this time and persuaded: "Brother, I know that you can't stand it, but you also have to think about it for your brothers, this trip out to brave the wind and snow, it is not easy for everyone, you can't let everyone work hard in vain and suffer, right?" ”

Seeing that everyone agreed to arrest him, the little young master stood on his side with this good man, and said arrogantly at the moment: "I invite you brothers to drink!" I'll give you money! ”

Later, a soldier laughed and said, "Brag! How much silver can you have like this? Twenty or thirty taels is not enough for us to share! ”

The little young master gritted his teeth and said, "One ...... One hundred taels! "It's a big deal to go back and beg Eniang!

If someone says that you only have one piece of clothing left on you, don't lie to people, come with us, the adults won't be severely punished when they see you, just eat ten boards at most.

As soon as he said that he wanted to eat the board, the little young master immediately wrote down the gambling note happily, saying that he lost by gambling with others.

After signing and pressing the handprint, the little master can also put on his clothes again like a person. He was suddenly unwilling, how could he be unlucky alone?

He whispered: "Brothers are so hard, I have a way to come to the outer block, seeing that my brothers are good people, I simply told you!" "What he said is not an uncommon thing, that is, this is not to see people catching prostitutes here, remembering that he has several enemies who usually don't play well, annoying people, and people who want to be rectified, where they usually play, please ask these officials to go over there to catch them, and let them pay money to write gambling notes!

Ta Fu came today on an errand to bring his brothers to earn extra money, and he didn't do anything about prostitutes, but he heard that he was looking for a little, and everyone at the bottom said that he didn't know what it was, so that the master above remembered it like this, probably because he was deceived a lot.

Helplessly, this little young master wanted to be friends too much, for fear that they would refuse, and immediately a string of people popped up.

Not to mention that there are really a lot, there are several princess brothers. In the front, there was the Cheng'en Mansion of the Tong Jia family, the third son of the third master of the Tong family, and the young master of the Chengen Mansion of the Wulanala family.

Tafo was stunned when he heard this, and gave Feiyangu a look, and the two of them avoided each other.

"The little young master of the Chengen Mansion of the Wulanala family, which one is this?" Tafu Road.

Fei Yanggu said: "Which one does he care?" They must all be their own sons. ”

The two brothers looked at each other and smiled.
