Chapter 497
It's almost autumn, and although it's still quite hot, the preparations for the change of seasons have to start a month and a half in advance.
In the early years, these things were only after the fourth master spoke, and she let people start to prepare. Like the autumn clothes of the masters, the seasonal clothes of the people (twice a year, it is a big event for the eunuchs and palace maids), and autumn is the hunting season, although the fourth master rarely goes hunting in person, but Hongyu They will go to hunt several times a year in autumn. Especially Hongxi and Hongjin, the two elder brothers who are still living in Nansansuo and are being treated in a separate case, they can have a limited number of times in a year, and the autumn hunting is a season when they can come out to play.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs will be busy everywhere. Wu Yingdian and the Imperial Bookstore should send this year's new books, and before that, they need to hand over the folds of how much money they will spend to buy paper, buy ink, hire people, etc., and she will approve them.
The guard office will report that after their inspection this year, where the roof of the palace is leaking, where the tree is dead, and this kind of fold will be handed over.
Generally speaking, as long as you don't live in it, you don't care about it, and if you live in it, you have to repair it. Li Wei had thought before that after they reported it, she would send someone to check it one by one according to what they reported, so that they wouldn't take advantage of it to make money. After being seen by the fourth master, he laughed at her for being a childish person, and said, "If you send someone over again, you are not afraid that they will collude?" ”
Since the fourth master said that she was doing this one more time, she had no choice but to card the total amount. Every time they reported how much she wanted, she cut a third. The fourth master also told her that after they got the silver, they would go to check it next year. As long as they can cultivate eighty percent, these eunuchs can be considered honest and loyal enough.
In short, the New Year is difficult, and she usually celebrates the New Year in advance.
The fourth master saw that she was busy with these things so early, and said with a smile: "Your lord is really diligent, long live as a reward!" ”
She flipped her hand: "Reward." ”
He smiled and shook her hand, and the two sat down together, and the eunuchs and palace maids in the room all withdrew.
As soon as Li Wei leaned on him, she heard a rush of footsteps approaching outside.
She sat up straight, and the fourth master also accepted the smile on her face.
She looked at the sky outside, it was already dusk, and it was no small matter to be able to break into the garden so late.
Because at this time, it will be too late to return to Beijing if you run to the garden. It's not urgent, and I'm happy to come back early tomorrow morning.
Outside the hall, Zhang Qilin whispered a few words to the visitor, and his face suddenly changed. He looked behind this person: "What about the history of the Yiwang Mansion?" ”
The eunuch said, "I'm running out of breath." I asked him to come behind him, and I came over to report the news. ”
Zhang Qilin casually praised him: "Count you loyal." After that, he pushed away the eunuch who was still looking into the palace, and threw down the sentence: "Rest, long live will not be in the mood to listen to you." ”
And the eunuch was discouraged. As he spoke, the two eunuchs were already walking over quickly with the head of Yiwang's mansion.
Zhang Qilin took two steps forward and looked at it, Changshi suddenly rushed out of the city and rushed to the garden when there was a big event, and there was no one at this time. Zhang Qilin confessed his guilt first, and there were two slaps on the head!
After beating Changshi smartly, Zhang Qilin quickly said: "Quickly settle down!" I'm going to go in and say hello! I'll let you in in and talk back in a moment! ”
Changshi looked sad, and tears were about to fall.
Zhang Qilin stopped him: "Be careful about the loss of etiquette!" If that's not enough, I'll give you two more! ”
Changshi swallowed the trumpet back.
Zhang Qilin shook his sleeves and solemnly faced, hung his head and entered the hall, bypassing the weeping flower door and screen, and the long live lord and the imperial concubine sat on the couch. Seven or eight steps away, he knelt down and said, "Long live the lord, the head of the Yiwang Mansion Shi came to report that Hongjun ...... No ......."
Li Wei gasped.
After so many years, when she heard this 'gone', what she thought was not an accident or a sudden illness, but a conspiracy.
She hurried to see the fourth master, the incident happened in Yiwang Mansion, was it really against Hongyun? Or is there a thief to the Thirteenth Master? Hongyun has been getting close to Hongyu recently, is Hongyun in danger?
The fourth master couldn't see anything on his face, she had already discovered that now the fourth master would no longer show his joy and anger. To be honest, it's a bit like the Queen Mother. Just like when she went to tell the Queen Mother that she was dying, the Queen Mother didn't even blink her eyes, and her expression didn't change at all.
The fourth master said: "Changshi is outside? Tell him to come in and talk back. ”
Li Wei got up, and the fourth master held her down and said, "This is a family matter, and it doesn't hurt for you to listen to it." She sat back down.
Changshi's kung fu outside for a while has calmed down, but his legs are still a little weak, and he almost fell on the ground when he knelt down after coming in, he plopped and knocked his head a few times, and cried out with a wow...... The Hongtun Agoshen in our house was gone at three o'clock......"
Zhang Qilin was anxious next to him, and scolded him softly: "Presumptuous! Then he knelt down and gave him a handkerchief, so that he could wipe his snot and tears.
This long history also knows that he can't face the king when his face is dirty, so he has been burying his face on the ground.
The fourth master asked one by one, and he answered one by one.
Hongtun is a new celebrity in Beijing during this time, and he helped out in Hongyan, and there are more people coming and going, and there is an endless stream of all kinds of please eat and watch plays. It's just that he has a habit of never answering the post of the day, and if you want to invite him, you have to say it in advance before he can say whether he will go or not. Of course, if he doesn't go, he will be good to haode and daoqian. So the reputation is not bad.
He should be so cautious.
At noon today, Hong Jun didn't eat in the house. The word came back and said that after coming out of the Erbeile Mansion, he had to go to the Internal Affairs Office, and at noon he said that he had met a few people who had been pulled away, and he had made an appointment a few days ago, and it was not good to miss the appointment again.
After dinner, that is, after noon, he came back, no wine, saw the Thirteenth Master and Zhao Jia's, and went to Hongchang to sit down, and after returning to his yard, he washed up and fell asleep. He was too tired during this time, and after hearing what the Thirteenth Master said, he said don't call him and let him sleep well.
After sleeping for only half an hour, he said that his stomach was uncomfortable. The eunuch helped him to go to the toilet, but he didn't pull anything out, and he couldn't vomit if he wanted to. Hongjun ate two hawthorn pills, lay down and fell asleep again.
Changshi cried: "After a while, he vomited blood, the prince and Fujin hurried over, and the imperial doctor also came, but the prescription was gone before it was boiled." ”
The fourth master said calmly: "What about the people who eat with Hongjun?" Which restaurant do you go to? ”
Changshi took a deep breath, and said with a fierce look in his eyes: "When the slave came out, the prince had already asked people to take people. ”
The fourth master was silent for a long time and asked someone:
"Where's Hongchang?"
The hall was silent.
Changshi said quietly: "...... The prince makes people look good. He paused and said, "Brother Hongchang and the people waiting are tied up." ”
The fourth master let Changshi go down, and he also had to be taken care of. It's impossible to go home for the time being.
As soon as this incident of Hongtun came out, the fourth master would definitely not be able to rest here. He was going to the Qinzheng Palace, and Li Wei got up to change his clothes.
"It's no good for Hongchang to do this, he killed Hongjun, and there are so many younger brothers in the back. Can he still kill them one by one? "The most important thing is that he is like this now, the Thirteenth Master has very little friendship for him, and he is not afraid that the Thirteenth Master will kill him?
Lao Tzu killed his son, but he doesn't have to bear any responsibility here.
The fourth master said expressionlessly: "What if he has the idea of killing one and killing two to earn one?" ”
Li Wei was stuck all of a sudden. After reading Hongchun's book, Hongchang was a fanatic in her mind. He may not know what the fourth master said.
The fourth master said: "It's not Hongchang's hand, it's Hongjun's knowledge of something that others don't want him to know." ”
Under this kind of poison that is known at a glance, he doesn't even have the heart to hide it, that is, he is looking forward to Hongtun's quick death.
Li Wei tied his belt for him and said, "There is still a possibility." ”
The fourth master looked down at her, she raised her head and said, "Blame." The people who came were looking forward to the chaos of Yiwang's Mansion becoming a disaster. "Looking forward to the killing of father and son in Yiwangfu.
In other words, it is also possible that he wants to dig into the corner of the fourth master.
The fourth master only exhaled slowly at this time, and his brows furrowed. He patted her on the shoulder and said softly, "You can rest, I'll rest in the Qinzheng Hall too late." ”
Sending the fourth master out, looking at his back, Yuyan helped Li Wei and said softly: "Master, will we move tomorrow?" ”
The weather is getting colder, and Li Wei plans to move from Wanfang Anhe to Jiuzhou Qingyan.
"Move." She said.
That night, the fourth master really didn't come back. only let Zhang Qilin come over and say again.
The next day, she began to move to Jiuzhou Qingyan. There is a lot of water in all directions, and it is cool to live in summer, but it is too cold to live in autumn. This move doesn't mean that it will be done in one day, first move the large items slowly over there, and then move people.
She heard that the thirteenth master did not come, but the fourteenth master came. He came to report the funeral, Hongjun is a clan, and he is going to do this as a sect commander. When he took out the fold, he couldn't help but his eyes were red.
The fourth master took it: "How is thirteen?" ”
Fourteen sighed: "It's okay to watch." In fact, he felt that Thirteen was provoked. He is the commander of the Nine Gates, holding soldiers and horses, and that night he led people to copy a few houses to arrest those who ate with Hongjun, and the restaurant was also copied, from the second child to the dealer who sent vegetables and meat to their restaurant. He was still arresting people when he came here today.
As soon as he said this, he saw Banzai frowning, and while writing something on his fold, he said, "Let Thirteen restrain a little." The soldiers and horses I gave him were not for his personal revenge. There must be real evidence. As he spoke, he handed the fold back.
Fourteen took it, opened it and looked at it, and Hongtun posthumously sealed a Baylor, which said Let Thirteen go to the Dao and pick one of Hongtun's sons to inherit the title.
After Fourteen returned, Thirteen relented. There is also 'real evidence' for arresting people, and they are all arresting people with confessions. Fourteen was worried that the fourth master would be angry, so he deliberately went to tell Thirteen to let him take it easy, but Thirteen told him that it was okay.
"I understand, fourteen." Thirteen tugged at the corners of his mouth.
How could he dig his own grave? Hooray had a message to him, and he just took the opportunity to cut off some of the big Baylor's men.
When Gang'an of the Ulanala family was also arrested, the matter finally came to an end.
The case was heard fairly quickly and quite crisply.
Li Wei felt a little unscientific when she heard what the fourth master said, and the trial was completed in less than half a month. From the mastermind to the person who did it, to the one involved in this matter.
The mastermind was Gang'an, and the reason he confessed was that he wanted to plant dirt for Hongchang and wanted to provoke the father and son in King Yi's mansion. Others, such as those who listened to his words and invited Hongjun to the banquet, Xiao Er, who was poisoned by his own hands, and so on, were all ripped out of a long list. It was also they who testified to Gang An.
This was what Li Wei guessed at the beginning, but now she feels that this reason is too fake.
In addition, there is a royal history outside who thinks that this incident shows that Hongyu has to take responsibility, or to avoid suspicion, and he has rarely appeared in front of the people in Beijing recently, so as not to let someone splash sewage on him, and the gentleman will not stand under the dangerous wall. Let Hiroshi do the work in his hands first.
Li Wei: "...... Is this intended to make Hongyun, Hongyun and Hongshi incompatible? "Hongyun must be unhappy when he suddenly dismounts, it should be Hongyun who is behind him, and Hongyun is still idle. As a result, Yushi only mentioned Hongshi - it makes sense, Hongshi followed this trip from the beginning and was familiar.
The fourth master smiled, patted her hand and comforted her, "I have a little confidence in our son." "It's really straightforward, just saying this in front of him that this imperial history harbors evil intentions.
Li Wei remembered that Gang'an was from the Wulanala family, and couldn't help asking, "Will Honghui be involved?" "If Honghui is beaten as the mastermind behind Gang'an, it means that the sons of the fourth master will fight again.
In fact, there are already such rumors in the capital, and in their mouths, Honghui and the five elder brothers of the imperial concubine department have already pinched again.
There are even various versions of who poisoned Hongjun.
The fourth master smiled: "It's okay." "If you listen to it too much, you won't be angry, he just knows what his son is like. Honghui may have selfishness and ambition, but he can't kill Honghui.
Honghui knows very well that if he really kills Hongjun, or any person, and makes this kind of conspiracy and madness, then the fourth master will never treat him as a son again.
"The five grids have already been folded to plead guilty. Like Concubine Hui back then, he sued Gang'an for disobedience. "The fourth master said, the fifth grid is also one of the abandoned sons to protect the family.
In the torture room of the infantry commander Yamen, the thirteenth master sat in front of a cell wearing a thick cloak.
In the cell was Gang'an, who said with a contorted face, "No, no! I, Amma, will not accuse me of disobedience! He threw himself on the wooden pillar of the cell door, and the iron hook that had strung his ankle behind him sprinkled a string of blood.
"Your Amma has other sons, why not?" The Thirteenth Master said calmly.
Gang'an's eyes widened, and a smile twisted into his face.
Thirteenth Master: "Who told you to kill Hongjun?" ”
Gang'an laughed, he ignored the pain in his feet, and squeezed the whole person on the cell doorpost, his face was squeezed and deformed, and he whispered, "It's Big Baylor." Hongchang also has a share. ”
The thirteenth master was expressionless, and just said with a smile: "We use posts to communicate with each other, and we have counted everything written on it." As soon as Hongtun came out, we talked to him, and he said that on a certain year, month, and day, which of us gave Hongchang a box of ink ingots, and asked Hongchang where to drink tea, we would know. ”
He stared at the Thirteenth Master and said excitedly: "We all think that Hongjun must know, so we can't let him go." If he doesn't kill him, he should know about our entry into the palace to search for the edict. ”
"Hongchang designed to kill Hongjun, and one of your sons killed your other son." Gang'an said sweetly, "Lord Wang, what are you feeling like now?" ”
He laughed wildly: "Power is like fine wine! It can make people mesmerized! It can make people crazy!! ”
