The fourth and eighth masters quickly arrived at the first-class mansion, and the gate of the mansion was closed, and the white flags had not yet been hung. Please go to w~w~w.. C~o~m Look at the latest chapter****** this kind of disposition is unreasonable, and the fourth and eighth masters are all raised when they get off the horse.

The attendant called for the door, but it quickly opened. But only a small crack was opened, and the person inside whispered, "Who?"

The entourage reported the names of the fourth master and the eighth master, and the man hurriedly came out and knelt down and kowtowed, inviting the two of them in.

All the way inside, there was hardly a single figure in the house. The man explained, "Afraid that the people below would panic, the old lady asked everyone to lock them up." ”

This means that everyone in the house has given it a look.

When I arrived at a quiet courtyard, I wrote three big characters. The people in the courtyard had already heard the news that the two Baylors had come to the house, and they all knelt down in the courtyard. When they saw the fourth master and the eighth master, they kowtowed to say goodbye, calling them 'the son of a criminal minister'.

In May of the year before last, the emperor first sent Suo Xiang to the Zongren Mansion to ask for the shackles, and then asked him to go back to the house to think about it behind closed doors, and this thought has been thought about until now.

But neither the fourth nor the eighth master dared to accept the word 'criminal minister'. The person is dead, and it is difficult to say what the emperor's intentions are. If the emperor plans to have a good story about the relationship between the monarch and the minister, it is very likely that all the previous sins of Suo Etu will be erased.

The two of them came just to make sure Suo Etu was really dead. It's good to send a fold in front of the emperor.

After helping the person up, the fourth master signaled to the eighth master, and the eighth master stepped forward and said, "Let me wait to see the grandfather." ”

The official on Suo Etu's body had already asked the emperor to give up, and he only left a first-class duke for the sake of Empress Xiaocheng.

Suo Etu's two sons, Gelfin and Algishan, are also in their forties and fifties, and when they suddenly change dramatically, they all look rickety, and their old age is fully revealed. It's not good to call the fourth master and the eighth master.

Gelfin was the elder, bowed down and said respectfully: "Please come with the fourth master and the eighth master." ”

The fourth master and the eighth master both turned sideways and gave up half a step, the fourth master said, and the eighth master said bluntly: "Don't dare to be, please first." ”

Empress Xiaocheng is on top, and Gelfin and Aljishan are their uncles, and they call themselves 'slaves' and die.

Gelfin smiled bitterly, and still led the two into the house courteously.

The room was fairly clean, and there was an undrunk medicine bowl and sputum box on the table, and a handkerchief folded on one side fell to the ground, faintly visible stains.

The bed tents were all rolled up high, and there was a person lying in the bed, covered with a thin quilt of jujube red swastika flowers, and a large piece of dark medicine residue could be seen vomiting out on the quilt.

Gerfin stood three steps away from the bed and stopped, "I haven't had time to clean up yet." ”

The man on the bed had his mouth half open, and a foot-long white braid hung down from the pillow.

The fourth master and the eighth master stepped forward separately, and it was indeed correct, that is, the person had lost his shape.

The two brothers looked at each other, both wondering how to write this fold when they went back. On a hot day, Suo Xiang's body can't stop for a long time, it's troublesome.

Leaving Yiranju, the fourth master said to Gelfin: "Take us to say goodbye to the old lady." ”

Gelvin hurriedly said: "Don't dare to be. ”

Suo Etu's Fujin is already the year of Ershun this year, she is the biological mother of Empress Xiaocheng, and she is also the emperor's cousin. Her surname is Tong Jia, and her father is the emperor's biological mother and the elder brother of Empress Xiaokangzhang. Even if Suo Etu is gone now, this old lady will not fall.

The fourth and eighth masters came in to greet her, and the old lady sat upright and accepted the salute.

She raised her hand and said, "You're here, have you been there?" She took out a fold, handed it over, and said, "Just right, I asked Gelfin to write an excerpt for the old man, and then we will hand it over to Banzai." ”

The eighth master stepped forward to pick it up.

The old lady sighed: "When the will of Banzai comes down, our family will hold a funeral, and these days the old man will ask them to close their doors and thank them, and no one will be called in." ”

There was nothing to say about it, the fourth master and the eighth master said goodbye, and the old lady asked Gelfin to send it. Before leaving, a girl walked in quickly, whispered a few words in the old lady's ear, and the old lady frowned and said: "Gelfin, you go out and see your two uncles stop a step, don't call in, I don't want to be an outsider at this time." ”

Gelvin hurriedly answered, helped the old lady and said, "Eniang, do you have a headache again?" He called the girl to bring the medicine.

The eighth master stepped forward and asked with concern: "The old lady is uncomfortable?" I'll call a doctor to come over and give the old lady a look and prescribe two doses of medicine. ”

The old lady swallowed the medicine, drank half a bowl of warm water from the girl's hand and sent it down, and smiled at the eighth master: "Eighth master Lao is bothered, the old body is an old problem, and he has been taking the medicine prepared by his own doctor, and it is no big deal." ”

The eighth master didn't insist, and came out with Gelfin with a polite word.

I didn't meet anyone all the way, and when I got out of the first-class mansion, the fourth master and the eighth master said on the horse: "It's Xinyu and Fabao?" "These two are Suo Etu's younger brothers, and they have been called Suo Etu for a lifetime.

The emperor will never try his best to pick a family. Generally, one person is picked to take the lead, and the others don't have to think about it. The Tong family and the Niu Colu family have all had queens, and several brothers are about to become black-eyed chickens. Tong Guogang and Tong Guowei have always been at odds, especially after Tong Guogang's death, Tong Guowei became the patriarch on the surface, and he couldn't suppress the disagreement between Long Keduo and Oro Dai.

The tenth master's mother's family, Niu Colu, produced a filial piety queen, a Wen concubine. But the younger brother Faka, who has the same mother as these two concubines, has never been reused. However, Alinga, who is not the same mother, became a first-class duke, and he was incompatible with Faka, and was scolded by the emperor, but he still did the same.

Suo Etu's younger brother Xinyu and Fa Bao are the same. They didn't agree with Suo Etu, and they came here at this time just to curry favor with the emperor.

With Tong Guogang and Tong Guowei in front, it was also the elder brother who died, but the title was given to the younger brother, not the elder brother's son. Suo Etu's death is an opportunity for the two of them.

The fourth master said: "It's really like the smelly fly, it's disgusting." ”

The eighth master smiled: "Fourth brother can't get used to it? The fourth master glanced over, and the eighth master said: "My younger brother can't get used to it, but this kind of person is the most in the world." He thought, aren't they the same as Xinyu and Fabao? are waiting for the prince to fall down so that he can come forward and get a piece of the pie.

But you can't tell the fourth brother. Even if he suspected that the fourth brother had the same thoughts, he would become a feud if he said it.

The two parted at the intersection and went back to their homes.

The fourth master quickly wrote an excerpt and sealed it and asked someone to send it out. He didn't have much contact with Suo Etu, and he didn't have much friendship with each other, and the only thing that worried him was the impact of this incident on the prince.

After hesitating, he still did not write another private letter to the prince. If the emperor doesn't want the prince to know, the prince might as well not know.

The sound of cicadas outside disturbed people's hearts. From the window, I saw several small eunuchs holding long thin bamboo poles sticking cicadas to the trees. There are two icebergs in the house, which are refreshing.

He thought of the current weather, and the first-class mansion was only afraid of inconvenience. Call Su Peisheng to send two truckloads of ice over there.

Su Peisheng came back soon, but Gelfin didn't send a thank you gift or other things, not even a thank you sticker, only said that the fourth master was generous, and his family was inscribed with a sense of guilt.

The fourth master nodded, and Su Peisheng, who thought he would be angry, breathed a sigh of relief.

He asked, "How is it in the public house?" ”

Su Peisheng was quite clever: "I haven't seen many people, and there are no flags hanging on the mansion, so I probably don't know, right?" ”

It's not that I don't know, it's that the emperor's meaning is still unclear, so everyone doesn't dare to come to the door.

There is no need to do serious things these days, even if Henan is completely flooded, those officials have no intention of dealing with it. This is a good thing, the fourth master thinks about Suo Etu and has to wait to listen to the emperor's letter, so it is better to quickly give the matter over there in Henan.

He had already written the fold, and the letter sent back by Dai Duo and others also confirmed that there was indeed a breach of the embankment, but fortunately, the people were not affected much. The place where the embankment burst had been hit by a disaster a few years ago, and many of the displaced people were forced to come back when they moved back, so the old people died, the young died of starvation, and the young and middle-aged people came back that year, and they also fled to other places to beg for a living.

As a result, far fewer people died than during the great tribulation.

This became the achievement of local officials. Called the fourth master also sighed that Xu Chao was really lucky, originally he reported the disaster to make the emperor unhappy, but the emperor still remembered that he was 'diligent', not only would he not be disgusted, but he would be rewarded. Now a natural disaster has forced him to do a good thing. At that time, Xu Chao will go to the emperor to bless Li Min's excerpt, and push the credit to the emperor, and everything will be fine.

The sedan chair is carried by everyone. The fourth master felt that this thing was done beautifully, so he put aside the advance of Suo Etu, and first blocked people everywhere to do Henan's affairs, how to relieve disasters, where to allocate grain and silver, where to get river workers, and so on.

Everyone in the capital is closed, and he is afraid that when he is implicated in Suo Etu, he will make such a big move, which makes the eighth master look very uncomfortable.

The ninth master said unhappily: "What does this mean by the fourth child?" It seems that he is dedicated to the public? We're all shrunken turtles? ”

Fourteen is also here, but he is keen to use his left hand to make chopsticks and play with peanuts, and transport them to his plate one by one. The Ninth Master couldn't get used to him pretending to be stupid the most, and scolded: "Fourteen! You thought you were only eight years old, didn't you? ”

Fourteen smiled and said, "What does Brother Nine say?" Do you also learn from the fourth brother? ”

The ninth master sneered: "This matter makes your good fourth brother hold it in the palm of his hand, I dare to go up and grab a bite, he can't hate me to death?" ”

Fourteen spread his hands together, "If you ask you to go and you refuse, then we can't take a sack and put it on his head and knock him on the stick, right?" ”

The tenth master has not spoken since just now, and when he heard this, he slapped the table with a smile: "I'll see it!" ”

The ninth master made the two of them laugh angrily, the three brothers made a fuss, and the eighth master thought they were annoyed, so he drank and didn't speak. After a while, the ninth master noticed that the eighth master's face was unhappy, so he came up and said, "Starling, what do you see?" Let's just call the fourth brother to go down like this? I think the fourth brother is using this matter to ask the emperor for credit. ”

The eighth master said lightly: "It is his ability that the fourth brother can be invited. ”

The ninth master called the eighth master, and he didn't wait, "That's why I'm here alone, and you don't care about it, right?" After saying that, he dropped his chopsticks and left. Fourteen chased after him with a smile and shouted, "Brother Jiu, why do you bother? It's not fun to be angry, Brother Nine! ”

The two ran away, and the tenth master looked at the eighth master.

The eighth master sighed: "Old ten, let's disperse first tonight." I'm a little tired, you tell Lao Jiu, I didn't mean it just now, tell him not to take it to heart. ”

The tenth master got up and said, "Brother Starling, then you can rest, I'll talk about Lao Jiu's side." Don't worry, he doesn't put things off in his heart, and he will forget about it when he gets up early tomorrow morning. ”

The eighth master didn't get up to send it, but only waved his hand hastily.

The tenth master chased to the door, and saw the ninth master riding on the horse, and the fourteenth was pulling the reins of the horse under his head, and he didn't let go with a smile. The ninth master saw the tenth master and asked, "Why did you come out too?" ”

The tenth master asked his entourage to bring the horse and said to him, "Dumbfounded, right? As soon as you left, the starling said that he was tired, and I came out too. ”

Jiu Ye regretted it a little, he didn't want to make such a big fuss, but the words came to that point. He looked at the gate of the Eighth Master's Mansion and laughed at himself: "Come on, I'll come back tomorrow to compensate the starling." ”

All three got on their horses and walked back slowly. Halfway through, Fourteen saw the restaurant on the side of the road, grabbed the reins of the horse and said, "I haven't eaten just now, why don't we use a little more here?" ”

The other two don't matter. Dismounted and entered the store to call the table, and then called two players to come over and cheer up.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, all three of them drank so much that their faces were red. With the intention of drinking, Fourteen boldly asked the ninth master: "Ninth brother, why are you always staring at the fourth brother?" Is it bent on getting along with him? Or do you have something else on your mind? ”

There was silence on the table, and the ten masters continued to sing, covering the sound of their brothers' words.

The ninth master was silent for a long time.

The king of Zhijun pointed to the crown prince's throne, and the older brothers were almost all active. Even the third brother has ambitions, let alone the fourth brother?

Except for the fifth and seventh who are clearly unwilling to go into the water, it is the eighth master, and the ninth master is a little confused about what he is thinking now.

The ninth master can be sure that if he pushes forward two years, the eighth master still wants to please the emperor as much as possible, and it will be the end of being crowned a prince in the future. As for the prince and the crown prince, he didn't lean on either of them. Even if he has a good reputation among the hundred officials, it is to prevent the new monarch from easily touching him.

The eighth master really went to the position of 'virtuous king' at the beginning. Befriending two generations of Prince Yu is also for this.

But it's hard to say right now.

But even the eighth master may have moved his mind, and the ninth master himself is not interesting at all.

Fourteen's question is also reasonable, if he doesn't mean this, why does he keep staring at the fourth master unpleasantly?

The ninth master didn't say anything, and the fourteenth just laughed and said, "Brother Jiu, since you don't mean this, what are you doing in it?" Telling them to fight and fight has nothing to do with us. ”

The ninth master pushed away the fourteenth who had been pasted over, and said: "The fourth brother is your brother, in the future, if he has a mouthful of meat to eat, you will have a mouthful of soup to drink, of course you said it lightly." ”

Before the words fell, Fourteen's face darkened, and the Ninth Master was at ease, and he couldn't call Fourteen happy if he wasn't happy.

Seeing this, the tenth master passed here, and hurriedly said: "Okay, don't say anything, hurry up and eat and drink, and go back to sleep when you're done." ”

After this day, the Nine Masters didn't get together again. The eighth master invited him, and the ninth master prepared a gift to come to the door, but he just sat down and excused himself. He called Fourteen and said that he was a little afraid to go to the door of the starling.

The prince hasn't fallen yet. Besides, it's really down, there are so many brothers in front of you, can starlings really go up?

The ninth master was not sure, and he was determined to avoid it first.

There have been a lot of people in Kyori who have been avoiding trouble recently. Even the fourth master, after sending out the excerpts about Henan, was either in the palace or in the house, and he refused to say a word when he met people.

Dai Duo and the others have been called back by him, and they are sure that the matter in Henan is not fake, and the following is the responsibility of the magistrate. The fourth master will intervene again.

In the house, Li Wei in the east courtyard was also relieved when she heard the news, "It's earlier than I said, and now the family can rest assured." She called someone to call Li Tan, since she was fine, there was no need to leave this child here. Asking him to play with the fourth elder brother is also wronged him, what does the fourth elder brother know? As a result, in addition to playing slides and shooting basketballs in the Fourth Master's Mansion, Li Tan played hydrangea with Baifu and Zaohua.

She took Li Tan to the next door to explain what he said when he went home, touched his head and said, "I've worked hard for you these days, go home quickly." ”

Li Tan hesitated and said, "Auntie, can I wait for Hongyu and the third elder brother to come back, say goodbye to them and leave?" ”

Li Wei thought that if she told him to go back, the child would be happy and go back to Li's house immediately.

"You're not scared anymore?" She asked him curiously.

Li Tan smirked, "Brother treats me well, the fourth brother keeps calling me brother." ”

The fourth elder brother confused Li Tan and the third elder brother, and saw that both of them called the third brother. But as long as these two appeared in front of him together, he would be able to recognize him, and call Li Tan his cousin.

As soon as the third elder brother came back in the afternoon, he loved to take Li Tan to tease the fourth elder brother, and after a while, he hid behind Li Tan and asked the fourth elder brother: "Who do you think this is?" ”

The fourth elder brother grinned, stretched out his hand and shouted, "Third brother! ”

The third elder brother came out from behind Li Tan again, "Then who am I?" ”

The fourth elder brother looked at him, then looked at Li Tan, pointed at the third elder brother and shouted, "Third brother." The third elder brother pointed to Li Tan, "Then who is he?" ”

The fourth elder brother smiled: "Cousin! ”

The three of them simply can't get tired of playing this childish game, and they can come back in the afternoon to play until dinner. Ergege said: "I think the fourth brother is deliberately teasing his third brother." The third brother is still happy here! ”

In fact, Li Wei also felt the same, especially when she saw the fourth elder brother looking at the third elder brother.

Horizontal and vertical are not in a hurry for this moment. Let's leave this kid for dinner and then go back. She asked Li Tan to go out to play and returned to the house.

The fourth master was still lying on the couch in the house, and when he heard her footsteps coming in, he asked, "Have you told your nephew?" ”

Li Wei took his hand and leaned against him, and said with a smile: "I really didn't expect Li Tan to be afraid of being here anymore, I just told him to leave, he said that he wanted to wait for Hongyu and a few people to come back, and then leave." ”

The fourth master hummed and said, "Do you want to call Li Tan in?" ”

What he said was whether to officially send Li Tan to Hongyu and other elder brothers in the East Courtyard. Li Wei heard it, hesitated, but still shook her head firmly, even if the fourth master wanted to promote the Li family, she would refuse this matter.

"Forget it, Li Tan is not smart, and he is not flexible enough. I don't think he can even compare to half of Fu Chi, and it's in vain to ask him to come in, so it's better to stay in the Li family and do what you should do. ”

She was telling the truth. But what I thought in my heart was that Li Tan was now a guest in the East Courtyard, and the cousins of Hongyu and several people came in. With the words of the fourth master, the next time he comes in, he will be a slave. There's a world of difference here.

Li Tan still looks like an innocent child, why should he be forced to be sensible so early? In the future, if he really wants to be attached to Hongyu and a few people, as a member of the Li family, he has a natural advantage, and he can come over whenever he wants. Even if he doesn't enter the mansion to wait, the Li family's contact with Hongyu and others can't be broken.

The fourth master said above her: "You have demoted your brother's son to the end, and according to the master, that child is a talent that can be created." "The Li family is sensible and obedient, that's it.

"Actually, it doesn't matter if he gets in or not. What's more, if he really came in, should he be treated as a slave or a relative? It's hard to grasp this. Don't look back, the slave didn't do well, and the relatives didn't have to do it, so it's over? Li Wei is telling the truth.

In fact, except for Li Cang and Li Sheng, the daughters-in-law of her younger brothers are a little light, and she is not heavy. Li Tan was very good when her relatives came in to live for a few days, and she really accepted it as the haha beads of the third or fourth elder brother, so she couldn't do it here first, so it was the same as she was sorry for her brother, and her own nephew became a slave, isn't this a pit person?

The fourth master didn't insist anymore, and she also breathed a sigh of relief.

On the third day after Li Tan returned home, Suo Etu's matter was decided, and the emperor sent someone to send a decree back. The rest of the sin was not asked, but there was no grace, Suo Etu was buried as a first-class duke, and his son was handed over to Suo Etu's brother Xinyu and Fabao to take care of.

As soon as the word 'caretake' came out, it meant that everything was business as usual in the first-class government. Suo Etu thought about it behind closed doors, and it was the same with this house when he died.

As for Suo Etu's title, the emperor didn't say it, and no one dared to ask at this time.

Suo Etu was hurriedly buried. It is embarrassing that a generation of famous ministers ended up like this. On the day of the spirit, the fourth and eighth masters both went. The rest is only the Zhijun Wangfu who sent people to sacrifice, and the third, fifth, seventh, ninth, tenth, and fourteenth masters just sent people to pay their respects.

After the burial, the prince sent someone back. Soule didn't even return home, and directly found the fourth master.

The fourth master was also very surprised when he saw him, and hurriedly asked, "Your Highness called you back?" For what? ”

Soule was the prince's companion back then, and said, "Fourth master, the prince will be back soon." ”

The fourth master was stunned, and Soult said: "The news of Suo Xiang's death was sent to the imperial front, and the prince asked for a decree to come back and send Suo Xiang a ride." ”

"Your Highness is confused! Why don't you persuade! The fourth master said angrily.

Soult knelt down and pleaded guilty, saying, "It's all minions and other incompetence." It's just that the prince insists on coming back, and we can only listen. The slave came back first, and it was the prince who said that he wanted to say hello to you first. ”

The fourth master called him up and said, "Suo Etu is buried in the ancestral grave of Hesheri." Gelfin and Algishan were watched by their two uncles, but the old lady was still there, and she was usually calm. ”

Soult hesitated and said, "The crown prince probably wants to meet the two Gelfin brothers, and the fourth master will see ......."

The fourth master thought for a while and sighed, "I'll find a way to bring Gelfin and Algishan out." ”

Soult knelt down again: "The slave has thanked the fourth master for his great kindness!" He kowtowed loudly.

Sending off Sirte, the fourth master also left the house.

In the main courtyard, Yuan Ying heard that the fourth master had gone out, and remembered that his family had come to the house to seek a future for his family, and asked the fourth master to also promote one or two.

The fourth master was busy back and forth in the palace, calling all his minions. There are a few Fu Nai, and there are also Li family members. But there is no Ulanala family.

Yuan Ying has been thinking, what about the fourth master Weishenme snubbing the Ulanala family? Is it because of her?

What should she do?

The author has something to say: good night everyone, see you tomorrow
