Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Fourth Elder Brother of Gaoyou City

The woman crawled and crawled, and finally reached the hall, pushed away the cover and entered the threshold, and before she could speak, she only heard the knock of the knocker of the front door, which immediately scared her half to death.

Qi Suniang and the others were all shocked by Liu Po, Liu Gong hugged her, Qi Su Niang rushed forward and said, "Granny Liu, what's wrong?" ”

Liu Po grabbed Qi Su Niang's hand and said tremblingly: "Grandma, hurry up, hurry up and invite the uncle back, the people in the Cao Gang can't afford to mess with ......" Su Niang listened to the knock on the door in front of her, and said suspiciously: "Cao Gang? Gao Youcao Gang? Liu Gong scolded angrily: "What is there to provoke a foolish mother-in-law? Which of our uncles and uncles is not a nobleman? But this group of small killers was scared? While scolding, he helped Mrs. Liu to sit down, took the hot tea poured by Zhi'er and stuffed it in her hand, turned her head and said: "Grandma, those thick and horizontal on the grass are tight, the little ones go to the front to see, grandma and the two girls please go back to the inner room to stay, so as not to let them see." Qi Su Niang smiled dumbly, and was about to speak, but Liu Gong picked up the crutches on the side of the chair and walked out step by step, "Grandma, the little ones go to shock and convince them, our family is like this, is it possible to call them bullied?" As he spoke, he went out the door.

Qi Su Niang couldn't cry or laugh, she wanted to let him go, and she was afraid that people from outside would not know that this was Chen's Mansion, which would make him suffer for the elderly, so she had to turn her head and say: "Zhi'er, you are here with Granny Liu, Bi'er, let's take a look ahead." ”

Bi'er found a corner lamp and lit it, accompanied Qi Suliang down the steps, crossed the courtyard, stood behind the wall in front of the door, and listened.

"This old man, in Xia Wang Si, is the owner of the Gaoyoucao Gang, and he is offended by the subordinates, so he came to ask to see Mrs. Futai and accompany Mrs. Futai."

That Liu Gong heard that the other party was not small, and he didn't dare to shake his majesty, and hesitated: "This is in charge, my uncle is not here, and it is inconvenient for my grandmother to come out to meet guests......"

"I also know that the third master of Qi is not in the house, that is the case, please ask the old man to pay more tribute to the lady, and ask the lady to forgive the sin of lax discipline below, this meager thing is not a respect, and please pass it on to the lady......"

Qi Su Niang heard Liu Gong full of promises, and closed the door after a while, he was on crutches in one hand, and two large gift boxes in the other hand bypassed the wall, looking at Qi Su Niang at a glance, he was surprised and proud, "Grandma, this surnamed Wang Di also has eyes, and he knows that our family is not easy to mess with, and he rushed over to accompany the ...... when he was injured."

Bi'er smiled and stepped forward to take the gift box, Qi Su Niang listened to the chaos outside, and shouted for a while: "The idea is hard, and there are many people......" and shouted for a while, "I'm afraid it's wrong, it's a lone traveler......"

"It doesn't matter who he is. Go to the state yali to let me know. Call all the people to come. Fence and catch it and talk about ......"

The three of them walked together towards the hall. Liu Gong pounded his waist and eyes. One side said confusedly: "Grandma." I'm afraid something really happened. The surname Wang Di hung his arm. The little earth is not blind. I'm afraid it's still a new injury......"

Qi Su Niang watched Liu Gong help Liu Po back. Turn around and walk towards the inner room. There was a slight uneasiness on his face. "Uncle is still outside. I don't know if something will happen......"

Bill handed the gift box to Zhi'er. Let her put it away. Turning his head and comforting, "It's okay to go somewhere else." Where will there be an accident in Uncle Gaoyou? The slave maid also heard Master Liu say it at the beginning. At that time, an elder brother in the palace was injured in Gaoyou. Lord Zhizhou was taken off the seal. It's still the uncle who walks the way. Half a year apart. He was reinstated as usual. Brother is injured and fine. What's more, it's Caoshang's home? Grandma, this is a waste of worry. ”

Qi Su Niang heard the old things from Bi'er's mouth. I couldn't help but laugh. "You're really good at reporting to God. Sooner or later, I'll let you know. ”

The two laughed for a while. Qi Su Niang pushed Bi'er back to the West Wing. I went back to the east wing. She memorized the roster for a while under the lamp. The wind blew through the cracks in the windows, and the candles swayed. She took the roster. I took off the hairpin and earrings. Comb the waist-length length. I was about to blow out the lamp and go to bed. Suddenly, I heard one loud bang after another. I could vaguely hear that the backyard door was blown by the wind. The sound of opening and closing.

Qi Su Niang was shocked, she especially remembered that she closed the back door with her own hands, and then remembered that Liu Po was frightened, muttering to herself, "I'm afraid she panicked and didn't close the door ......properly" I had to put on her coat, lift a shelter lamp from the bedside, and go to the back to close the door.

The night wind in late autumn was howling, Qi Su Niang shrunk her neck, walked to the door with the lamp, and saw the big elm tree next to the door with its teeth and claws, squeaking and squeaking. The back door was being hit by the wind, and Rao is Qi Su Niang had also gone through a lot of things, and when she saw the opening and closing, she saw that it was dark outside the house, and she didn't know what was hidden, and she was also worried. She hurriedly stepped forward to close the door, rubbed the wind and sand in her eyes, and as soon as she turned around, she kicked something under her feet, which shocked her a lot, and she jumped away to see that it was a lantern.

Qi Su Niang breathed a sigh of relief and patted her heart, "It must have been forgotten by Granny Liu, she was scared a lot." The people on this Cao are really a little sideways...... "Think about Li Siqin and Qi Qiang, and then think about Wang Dawhip and Wang Tianwang, I have to smile bitterly, "That's it, it's all my own family......"

While carrying the corner lamp, she bent down, picked up the lantern, and heard a slight voice from behind the elm tree in the courtyard, "...... ......"

Hearing the sound of people in the middle of the night, Qi Su Niang was so frightened that the three souls flew two souls, and immediately smashed the lantern in her hand in the direction where the sound came from. She looked back, and it was so dark that there was no figure in sight behind the tree, and she hesitated, thinking that the voice was very weak, and that there would be no danger even if she heard it, so she did not alarm the others, and went back into the room, and called out to Bi'er in a hurry.

Bi'er put on her clothes, and Qi Su Niang went to the kitchen to find tongs and a rolling pin, and one of them carried a lantern, and slowly walked to the elm tree at the back door, only to see a black lantern rolling on the ground.

Qi Su Niang had the courage to stretch the lantern behind the tree to shine a photo, and sure enough, she saw a figure, Bi'er held her hand tightly, stepped forward, and probed the lantern in her hand close to the person. When Qi Su Niang saw the person's face, she suddenly gasped in fright, her teeth had to fight, she didn't care too much, she tore off the coat on her body and covered the person's body

Together, they helped the man up and went to the inner room.

Seeing that Qi Su Niang did not avoid suspicion, Bi'er was already full of confusion, and when she saw Qi Su Niang wanting to send him into the main room in the backyard, she couldn't help but say: "Grandma, or send it to the outside wing, this is the main house of you and your aunt......"

Qi Su Niang smiled bitterly and shook her head, "If the main house is not the main room, I won't live here."

After a pause, "If you don't give him the best house, where can you make ......?"

Bi'er helped Qi Su Niang place the person on the bed in the hall of Luodian Factory, peeked at the person, and saw that he had a long face, a face like a knife, a slight beard on his lips, a long robe with dark palace silk arrow sleeves, and a mutton fat jade ring on his hand with excellent texture, more than 100 gold. The flat gold purse on the waist is handmade, and the cloud pattern on the top is a fine product of Jiangning's weaving at a glance, and I vaguely understand why Qi Su Niang is so cautious, but fortunately, he is only injured in the leg, and his life is not hindered.

Bi'er went out to bring a basin of hot water, took the wound medicine, turned around and entered the door, and saw that the man had woken up and was drinking hot tea in Qi Su Niang's hand.

The man's eyes swept over, and Bi'er only felt that it was like a sharp blade slashing in her face, and her heart trembled, and she couldn't help lowering her head, and she heard Qi Su Niang laugh and said, "...... Fourth young master, she is my ...... It's a concubine who is close to her maid, and she will never talk nonsense......" turned his head and said, "Bi'er, you put down the water and medicine, and go back to the room to rest, you should not know about this." ”

Bi'er responded in a low voice, didn't dare to say a word, closed the door and retreated. I could vaguely hear the fourth young master in the door say coldly: "What about Chen Bianzhi......"

Qi Su Niang swallowed and foamed, not daring to look at the fourth master, "The courtiers and brothers came to worship their parents, he went to Jiangning City to greet the governor of Liangjiang, and he hasn't ......come over yet," said that, she got up and put the tea back on the table, went to the hexagonal basin in the corner of the house, wrung the hot towel, and waited until she was calm, Fang dared to look up at the face of the fourth master, and handed the towel over.

The fourth master didn't ask again, took the face towel, wiped his face, and looked at the injury on his leg, "You avoid it." ”

Qi Su Niang replied in a low voice, handed over the wound medicine cloth tape on the table, walked to the corner of the house, and stood facing the wall. I could only hear the sound of lifting the quilt on the bed, the sound of undressing, the sound of the towel gently rubbing, the rustling of powder, the friction of the cloth strips, and finally the sound of tying clothes, mixed with a slight moan.

Qi Su Niang was uneasy in her heart, and thought that this injury was far less serious than the original arrow injury, Fang breathed a sigh of relief, and was thinking about the strange arrival of this matter. Is this elder brother rushing with Gaoyoucheng, or is she committing a collision with this elder brother, no, is it this elder brother and Qi Qiang? Why did she get hurt every time she met this master? He is a dignified elder brother, and he was actually treated as an assassin by the Gaoyoucao Gang, and he was just surrounded by him, which is really a strange thing in the world......

"Qi ......"

Qi Su Niang hurriedly responded, "It's here." He turned to the bed, put away the medicine, took the bloody wet towel from the edge of the bed, and rubbed it vigorously in hot water. She looked at the fourth master who was leaning on the head of the bed, resting with his eyes closed, sat on the edge of the bed, covered him with a quilt, and gently wiped the sweat from his forehead with a face towel.

"Go, hang this up at the back door." The fourth master slowly opened his eyes and took out a small four-edged ball from his arms, Qi Su Niang hurriedly reached out and took it, secretly relieved, he released the code today, Qin Quan'er was afraid that he would come to pick it up tomorrow, and he didn't have to be afraid that he would know about her and Chen Yan's husband and wife.

Qi Su Niang took the lantern to the back door to hang the code, looked all the way, the word "positive" was written on all sides of the ball, only to feel that her heart moved, and she threw it away.

The fourth master saw Qi Suliang enter the door with a cup of tea and sat on the edge of the bed, "The concubine doesn't dare to open the stove at night, so that people can see it." I was afraid that the fourth master would be hungry, so I had to bring a cup of miscellaneous tea. The fourth master watched her take the water stains along the side of the tea with her fingers, took a sip of herself, and brought it to his mouth, but it was a kumquat candied tea.

The fourth master lowered his head and drank slowly in her hand, "It's better than the wheat husk tea in the countryside......"

Qi Su Niang was caught off guard, and laughed out loud, and said apologetically: "It was the concubine who was careless, and let the fourth master drink coarse tea for two or three days before ......."

Qi Su Niang couldn't help but be surprised when she saw that the fourth elder brother drank the kumquat candied tea, not the habit of drinking only half a cup on weekdays. She thought for a while, then took out half a packet of sugar and two top cakes from the drawer and sent them to the tea tray.

"You and Lian Zhenyun...... What's going on? ”

Qi Su Niang was watching the fourth master eat through the sugar, and when she heard this question, her heart suddenly beat like a drum, and her vest was sweaty. She looked at the eyes staring at the fourth master, and tried her best to hold her composure, "The courtier doesn't know, what is the purpose of the fourth master's question?" ”

The fourth master stared at her expressionlessly, watching her slowly stand up, "The courtier is in front of the fourth master, although she is a slave who went out of the palace, but the fourth master asks like this, I'm afraid it will be rude......

When the fourth master saw her raising her feet to leave, he snorted, "Why is Gaoyou Zhizhou still the same one back then?" ”

Qi Su Niang's heart was cold, remembering that Qi Qiang had run for Gaoyou Zhizhou, his mouth was dry, he stretched out his feet and took it back, sat back slowly with his head down, and said vaguely: "Courtier...... The courtiers don't know ......" only felt that the eyes of the fourth elder brother fell on her face, and she dug up her skin and flesh layer after layer, and she had to see what was going on.

Qi Su Niang bit her lip and clenched her hands into fists under her sleeves, she was already a heart, no matter how the fourth elder brother conceived, unless Lian Zhenyun was crazy and came to confront her, she would never admit that she had entered Lian Zhenyun's private room

The room was silent for a long time, Qi Su Niang's back was already sweaty, but she didn't dare to look up and turn her eyes to look at the fourth elder brother, for fear that her expression would reveal flaws. The fourth master looked at her at the head of the bed, half-sat up, and stretched out his hand to support her face, "...... You should follow the rules and follow Chen Changzhi well......"

Qi Su Niang's face turned red and glared at the fourth elder brother, "The fourth master's words-" She was ashamed, and she was about to do it, but she heard some movement in front of her, "Uncle, be careful, don't fall--you lie down first, and the little one will go to the kitchen to serve the sobering soup......" Su Niang heard that Qi Qiang was coming back, and was about to talk back impulsively, and was immediately beaten back, holding back her anger, turning her head, and looking at the sky, "It's already the fifth watch, the fourth master is resting." "With that, get up and go.

In the advance room, Fu Ming was feeding Qi Qiang sobering soup, and saw Qi Su Niang walking in, no

"Auntie, why did you get up so early?" Qi Su Niang smiled bitterly and coped with it, seeing that Qi Qiang was already drunk, so she had to wait for him to sleep with Fuzhong.

Qi Qiang didn't wake up until near the evening, freshen up and change clothes, and heard that something happened in the Cao Bang altar last night, so he called Fu Ming to go out to find out the news, and after a while, Fu Ming ran back with a miserable face, "Uncle, something happened, Lord Zhizhou was taken off the seal and taken directly to the cage at the entrance of the yamen. Qiang was startled, and before he could speak, Fu Ming wiped the sweat on his head, and said in a panic: "The main and deputy altar masters of the Gaoyoucao Gang have been beaten with a hundred boards, and more than 50 gangsters under him have been put on death row. After a pause, he looked at Qi Qiang and whispered: "Uncle is here, Fang was invited to the state government as soon as he got off the boat, I heard that the little one heard, I heard, it was the fourth master who came......

When Qi Qiang heard the words "Fourth Master", he was immediately confused, and the group spun in place, "This...... This... The actor is this..."Bi'er quietly walked away from the door and told Qi Su Niang in detail in the backyard, Qi Su Niang was also covered with cold sweat, biting her lip, and pacing back and forth. Bi'er secretly glanced at her, "I'm afraid it's not a trivial matter, the master is the boss of Gaoyou Prefecture......" Su Niang listened to Chen Yan coming, but she didn't care about anything else at this time, she just secretly regretted that she shouldn't show her face to the fourth elder brother this morning, he said a few words, it doesn't hurt or itch, what does it matter? He became suspicious yesterday, it's not good to be her, isn't it good to teach Chen Yan a lesson about > irregularities? Not to mention the fact that Qi Qiang used the third elder brother to reinstate Gaoyou Zhizhou.

Qi Su Niang hurriedly entered Qi Qiang's room, "Brother, you hurry up and go to Yangzhou, don't stay in Gaoyou anymore, that master doesn't know when he will do it." ”

Qi Qiang stomped his feet and said, "How can I leave now, the actor is still inside, and you are here alone"

Qi Su Niang bit her lip, only regretted that she didn't show her hospitality in front of the fourth elder brother yesterday, and said with a smile: "It's okay, don't worry, although Brother Chen is the chief official of Yangzhou Mansion, in the end, there is a layer of separation, and there will be no big deal, it all depends on whether this master raises his hand or not." If the situation is not good, I will go to the state government to meet the fourth master, but he also added makeup to me at the beginning, and I will go to kowtow to the master a few times, which is also a courtesy. Qiang waved his hand and drove Fu Ming and Bi'er out, and said anxiously: "Sister, I heard the fourteenth master say that matter, you saved the fourth elder brother for me--" Qi Su Niang covered Qi Qiang's mouth and said softly: "Brother, I was also troubled at the beginning, so there is nothing to talk about." Later, when I was on an errand in the Ninth Master's Mansion, if it weren't for this master, I wouldn't be able to get along with the prince, and it can be regarded as my kindness. Don't worry, the fourth master is also reasonable, he will never do it with me. After that, he urged Qi Qiang again, "You hurry up and leave Gaoyou and go to Yangzhou City." That master has a fire in his heart, he cleaned up Lord Zhizhou, maybe when he will come to clean you up. If the ninth master is not here, you will inevitably suffer a loss in front of you. ”

Qi Qiang thought about it and felt that it could only be so, so he had to prepare to set off. Qi Su Niang and Bi'er packed his luggage in a blink of an eye, stuffed it to Fu Ming, and watched the two get on the horse and hurriedly go.

Qi Su Niang sent Qi Qiang away, on the one hand, she sent Liu Gong to inquire about the movements in the yamen, and on the other hand, she sent Bi'er to order a mule cart, pack up her things and move to the house in Shayi Lane. Qi Su Niang sighed secretly while packing up her clothes. She expected that she would not be able to hide it for a while, and Qi Qiang was not in front of her, Chen Yandi had a temperament, where would she invite herself to the court?

Qi Su Niang tied up the package and looked at the floor grinding soft snail makeup box on the dressing table. She walked over and slowly opened the lid of the box, and there was a glimmer of light on the jewelry such as the gold auspicious card and the eight-treasure inlaid beaded Huadian in the makeup box. She gently brushed aside these most fashionable ornaments of Yangzhou Mansion and touched the ground hidden deep inside.

On the West Street, there was no shadow in front of the state yamen, and the autumn wind blew, and even the dust on the road did not dare to fly. Chen Yan glanced at the dying governor in front of the state yamen, and followed Qin Quan'er into the state yamen.

In the lobby, Wang Si had already fainted, his back was beaten by a bamboo board and his flesh was blurred, his injured arm was bleeding, and no one went up to help him.

Chen Yan lowered his head and stopped, Qin Quan'er smiled: "Lord Chen, the fourth master is in the back hall." ”

Chen Yan thanked him and followed Qin Quan'er into the back hall. The fourth elder brother only reprimanded for a few sentences, and then talked about some old things back then. Chen Yan still bowed his head and listened silently, only when he heard the name of the thirteenth elder brother, Fang raised his head and replied two sentences.

"Brother Thirteen often mentions you in front of me. In other words, this time the child saint went on a southern tour, most of them had to let the thirteenth master follow, and he would definitely come to talk to you. ”

Chen Yan responded with a smile, "The Thirteenth Master is both civil and military, and he is deeply familiar with music and rhythm, I think that when he comes to Jiangnan, he will be able to compose songs on the flute, and he will be able to make good works." It's just that Xia Guan hasn't seen the Thirteenth Master for a long time, and I don't know what elegant things the Thirteenth Master is doing now. ”

The fourth elder brother smiled slightly, "His side Fujin has a little elder brother, and he is very fond of him." In the past six months, except for the emperor's errands, the rest have been ignored and have been having fun. However, the little elder brother also let the thirteen Fujin take it, and the thirteenth brother goes every day--" paused, glanced at Chen Yan, and said slowly: "Change, you have no children under your knees for nearly five years, and you have three unfilial pieties, and no queen is the greatest, and you should also accept a few concubines to continue the incense." But there is a difference, and it should not be cold-"

Chen Yan heard the fourth elder brother mention the childlessness, his face changed slightly, and without waiting for the fourth elder brother to finish speaking, he arched his hand and said: "Duocheng Fourth Master asked, when Neizi was in Qinghe, he suffered from some dampness and cold for the sake of the lower officials, and he has been looking for medicine and asking for a doctor, and the doctor said that it has gradually recovered." Neizi is virtuous, although he has repeatedly persuaded the lower officials to take concubines, the lower officials are dedicated to state affairs and have no time to be distracted, and they have no intention of taking concubines. Please also ask the fourth master to learn clearly. ”

The fourth elder brother was rudely interrupted by Chen Yan, but he was not annoyed, glanced at him, nodded and said, "You go down." ”

Seeing that the relatives in the group and the comment area have been trying to find ways to find pink tickets, I am really under too much pressure. I can't afford this kind of love.
