Chapter 278: The Cold-Faced Hades

Because Prince Yong presided over the recovery of the treasury silver, the entire court caused an uproar, and almost everyone was in danger.

At this time, Nian Yaoyue was basking in the sun while eating melon seeds in the garden of Nianfu.

After returning to the door for three dynasties, the fourth master stayed with her for a day, and then went on an errand in a hurry.

Yesterday was the first day to start collecting the arrears, and the fourth master went to Prince Cheng and the Ten Elder Brothers' Mansion to recover the arrears.

As a result, Prince Sancheng had a reason for compiling books, and Kangxi Ye paid off the arrears for him.

Lao Shi had no serious reason, he was a street seller, beat the court officials, and resisted to the end, and was finally sentenced to be imprisoned by the Zongren Mansion for half a year.

A group of other old ministers found Kangxi Ye and cried, Kangxi Ye remembered the old love and promised to repay their debts for them.

So in the end, Emperor Kangxi compromised first, and simply asked the fourth master to suspend the errand of recovering the treasury silver.

Therefore, the fourth master is selfless on the surface, and he is secretly lazy and lonely.

Nian Yaoyue originally planned to contact the children, but she didn't want her three sons to pass the Lantern Festival, so she was summoned by Kangxi's order.

And Xiao Gege was summoned by Concubine De to serve at the Queen Mother on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year.

"What? You want to go to the northwest to supervise the war?! Nian Yaoyue depressedly threw the donkey meat in her hand on the plate.

Obviously, there are dozens of princes of Kangxi, why do you always have to hand over the dirty work to the fourth master?

"Well, as soon as the fourteenth brother returned to the northwest to fight, Eniang was not at ease, so she asked the master to go to the northwest to help the fourteenth brother."

Now that most of the troops are the prince's forces, the fourteenth brother is too sharp, and Yinzhen is not worried that he will fight on the battlefield alone.

With him by the side of the fourteenth brother, the prince's henchmen will not be ruthless to the fourteenth brother.

"Master.. It's all my fault, if it weren't for me... The fourteenth master will not throw himself into the camp of Babel, but will be separated from the elder brother of the master. ”

Over the years, the Fourteenth Master has become closer and closer to Babeile and Jiubeizi, although he has not explicitly opposed the Fourth Master, but he is always lukewarm to the Fourth Master, and he doesn't want to kiss his brother at all.

"He is still young, and many things are easy to be deceived by performance, and Yinyu will understand sooner or later that he is in cahoots with the eighth brother, just seeking skin with the tiger."

"I'm going too!"

There are not only fourteen masters in the northwest, but also her second brother Nian Qianyao.

The second brother dealt with the rebels in Junggar on the battlefield in the northwest all the year round, and the second brother left Beijing on the second day after Nian Yaoyue got married.

"Don't make trouble, you can't take women on the battlefield! Otherwise, military justice will deal with it! Yinzhen sternly refused.

"Oh, then I'm back to my parents' house, it's boring to be alone in the house." The cunning light in Nian Yaoyue's eyes flashed away.

"Don't try to disguise yourself quietly and follow you." Yin Zhen could already see what she was thinking from Nian's smile.

"Four roundworms..."Nian Yaoyue was stunned, and the fourth master actually guessed her careful thoughts at once.

"Hmph~" Yin Zhen snorted arrogantly, he knew!

In the following time, the fourth master began to prepare the grain and grass to be transported to the northwest battlefield, and by the time he was about to set out, it was already the end of November.

"Can't you leave after Chinese New Year's Eve?" Nian Yaoyue reluctantly hugged the arm of the fourth master and said coquettishly.

"No, the three armies have not moved, the grain and grass go first, and the soldiers of the Qing Dynasty have sworn to keep the mountains and rivers safe in the bitter cold land of the northwest, how can the lord stay greedy for pleasure?"

Nian's knows right and wrong best, and Yinzhen knows that she is just reluctant to give up.

"Then I'll go back to my parents' house, wait for you to come back and pick me up!"

"Okay, take care of Eniang and the children~" Yinzhen reached out and stroked Nian's cheek and said.

"I know~" Nian Yaoyue pinched the fourth master's cheek and watched him leave the palace.

She didn't tell the fourth master, because the second brother fought on the battlefield all the year round, and her father and mother decided to go to the governor's mansion this year to celebrate the New Year with the second sister-in-law and nephews.

The fourth master is busy with national affairs, so Nian Yaoyue will not be held back because of private matters.

When I came to the Nian Mansion, the carriage was already waiting at the gate of the mansion, waiting for her to meet.

The eldest brother is the minister in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, so naturally he can't leave the capital to go to Bashu, which is thousands of miles away.

At this time, the eldest brother and sister-in-law were loading the purchased gifts into the car.

Nian Yaoyue got into the spacious and warm carriage and sat between her father and mother.

"I'll eat it later, it's still hot when it comes out of the oven, you gluttonous girl~" Nian Yaoling saw that her daughter's hand was about to grab the charcoal-roasted chestnuts that had just come out of the oven, and hurriedly stretched out her hand to stop it.

"I know, she grabbed a piece of pastry and ate it with relish."

"Daddy, sister, everything is ready, you go slowly along the way, don't rush to the road, remember to come home every few days to report safety~"

Nian Xiyao babbled a lot of things, and finally Nian Yaoling impatiently asked the coachman to set off immediately.

The front foot of the carriage of the Nian family left Rouge Hutong, and there were several figures hiding in the shadows on the back foot and fled in different directions.

But before he had gone far, there were a few suppressed screams, and the blood droplets guarding the shadows dragged away the living ones who were not dead, and interrogated them one by one.

The fish that slipped through the net continued to track their whereabouts.

Nian Yaoyue didn't know that the blood droplets had already dealt with the troubles for her, so she only leisurely followed her father and mother all the way south.

As everyone knows, on the second day after she left the capital, the fourth master received the news that she brought the second elder of the Nian family to Bashu.

From the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal to the south, into the Yangtze River, the light boat has passed the Wanzhong Mountain.

My father and mother are old, and I am worried that they will not be able to stand the pain of the boat and car, and Nian Yaoyue will stop and go all the way. In the end, I couldn't arrive on Chinese New Year's Eve.

On the eighth day of the first lunar month, the building boat sailed on the Jialing River.

The second brother wrote to him saying that he would pick them up in Chengdu Mansion and that he would be able to go to Chengdu Mansion the day after tomorrow. The second brother is back, does it mean that the fourth master may also come back from the battlefield?

This man has no news when he enters the battlefield, and he doesn't know how to write a letter to his family and come back to report his safety.

The moon is bright and the stars are scarce, and the originally quiet river suddenly ignites a sky-high fire.

"Why did the merchant ship in front of you suddenly catch fire? Jinyu, let them put down the raft and save people! ”

By the moonlight, Nian Yaoyue saw many figures falling into the water on a merchant ship not far away, and the wailing and screaming of adults and children.

"Master, something is wrong! The slave saw that there were many masked men in black on the merchant ship, no, they were water bandits!! Lights out, lights out!! ”

Jinyu exclaimed in shock, lowered her voice and ordered the surrounding minions to immediately extinguish the lights on the ship.

"It's too late!! Tell a few good people to stay with my father and mother to protect them, and the rest of them will wait for the guys! Get ready for battle! ”

Their building ship is more luxurious than the merchant ship, and the sailors will step on it in advance in the hundred days, and they must have been eyeing them for a long time.

Instead of being blind in the dark, it's better to go out and give it a go.
