The day passed in a blink of an eye, and on February 20, the imperial fleet of the Kangxi Emperor came out of Huai'an, Gaoyou, and went down the Cao River to the golden dock outside the city of Deyangzhou.

Qi Su Niang stroked her stomach and sat in the inner room of the mansion behind the palace, especially hearing the noise of the city, the sound of gongs and drums in ten directions shook the mountain, and she couldn't help laughing: "The emperor used to go on patrol, in order to prevent chaos, men along the river were not allowed to approach, only women were allowed to bow." Today, I can't help but see the people of Yangzhou along the river to bow, who doesn't want to go and see. Bill, now the whole city is pouring into the gold park, right? ”

Bi'er brought a bowl of hot milk and said with a smile: "Whoever says no, just say that in our house, except for the lady and the slave, everyone has gone to greet them." Zhi'er, Li'er, and Changsheng put on the new big red Xi'er for the New Year, but Xiaolian and Qixi wore red cloth summer shirts, who is not like this when they go to the dock? The slave and maid were watching from the back door, and the girl who had no money to buy red cloth tied a red head rope. Even the uncle in the house didn't expect that the emperor would let the men and women go to greet him, and this time, the plain beauty on his stage was even more conspicuous. ”

Qi Su Niang leaned on the couch and laughed, "The three of them are not afraid of the heat, and the two of them are not afraid of the cold?" Fortunately, the emperor only stayed in Yangzhou for three days, and Ming'er's itinerary is to visit the Slender West Lake and enjoy the Eight Gardens? When the salt merchants heard the news, they were afraid that they would be overjoyed. ”

Bi'er said with a smile: "The lord has taken the salt merchants out early these days, isn't it just to speak in the ears of the Hetai, Caotai, and Dutai who are driving, and let them play the emperor's garden?" I heard that tomorrow's itinerary was invited by Lord Caotai Sang. ”

Qi Su Niang sighed, "We can't see this excitement anymore." I heard that in addition to the water frolicking in the small Qinhuai River, a slip of incense pavilions was built on both sides, which were all surrounded by Jinping paintings, burning incense and hanging jade, and the dozen or so opera troupes of Lord Cao had to sing for a day. The emperor was afraid that he had already entered the banknote customs at this time, and went to Tianning Palace along the Xiaoqinhuai River. ”

On the second watch of the night, Chen Yan rushed back from the palace of Tianning Temple, which surprised Qi Su Niang, "Why did you come back?" I thought you were going to wait outside the palace for the decree, I'm afraid the emperor is still having a banquet at this time? ”

Chen Yan's face was full of displeasure, waved his hand to let Bi'er and the others retreat, closed the door, and sighed: "There was an accident when I crossed the Xiaoqinhuai River today. The guards escorted by the imperial ship saw that there was a fire on the corner of a hanging tower in Nanliu Lane, and their suspicions changed, so they shot an arrow at that time. I rushed over to see that it was just a woman who was cooking on the fire, and she had been killed by an arrow. Holding Qi Su Niang, he said: "The new governor of Liangjiang, Lord Kali, is also willing to report it, but he only said that it was a trivial matter, and sent me to suppress this matter, so I went to the woman's house and gave his husband and daughter two hundred taels of silver."

”

Qi Su Niang didn't say anything for a while, and Chen Yan said again: "I went to report this matter to Lord Dutai, although he didn't say much, I saw that his expression seemed to blame me for making a big fuss, and I shouldn't spend these money." This adult ...... "let go of Qi Su Niang and fell heavily on his back on the bed," he was originally from the Zhenghong Banner dignitary Dong E's family, and he made great contributions when he was in Pinggardan, and he was the emperor's favorite minister...... I heard that it is still a pro-...... of the Nine Elder Brothers. Mr. Zhou said that when he was a governor in Shanxi...... It's very greedy......"

Qi Su Niang turned sideways. Lying on Chen Yan's chest. Comforted: "That is, two or three days." He was going to drive to Jiangning. The Yamen of the Governor of Liangjiang was also in Jiangning. It's separated from us. It's a big deal, our family will fill him with some silver. I don't want you to do anything against your will. He thought slowly: "The last time he took office, he passed through Yangzhou. Did you give a gift? ”

Chen Yan laughed. looked down at Qi Su Niang. "The second day of the Mid-Autumn Festival. I went home and read your letter. I'm anxious to chase you. But he came to close the river. At that time, I felt that this governor was at odds with me. How can you still give him a gift? He even wanted to give me a gift. I don't like to take it. ”

Qi Su Niang burst out laughing. screwed Chen Yan. "Look at how poor you are. He is not yet you. I'm afraid it's because you led the salt merchants to pay a lot of filial piety a few days ago? ”

Chen Yan smiled and said, "Mostly. Tomorrow, the emperor will go to the garden. Those salt merchants will not lose either. Today, Lian Zhenyun showed his face greatly. It's not just the emperor who gave you a view. I asked about Jiangsu Caoshi. He made a candidate for the sixth grade. The prince also rewarded him with a lot of things. At this time, the banquet was held singing and dancing, and it was his group of prostitutes. "Slowly caress the head of the Qi Su woman." But. What strangely breaches me the most is. The Thirteenth Master summoned me to accompany me. When I met him. He even pulled him to say a few words. ”

Qi Su Niang said abruptly: "Thirteenth master? She felt uneasy. For a while, I remembered the secret room upstairs of Gaoyou Wuwei. For a while, I remembered that the fourth master asked vaguely. Said slowly: "I've been strange since the last time. The fourth master has a temperament. Standing dead Gaoyou Zhizhou. Why did you only beat Gaoyou's two Cao Gang altar masters for a hundred boards......"

Chen Yan sighed. "There's always some reason. Lian Zhenyun is such a person. Naturally, they will watch the limelight carefully. There will be no offense anywhere. I heard that Lord Dutai is still on his way to Jiangningdi. And he gave the gift. He smiled again: "Don't say it." Fortunately, the fourth master is reasonable. If you change the fourteenth master. You're going to save him twice. I have already found a reason to do it. I've got you into his house. These guys are tossing and turning day by day. The eldest brother and the prince of the driving ground quarreled from time to time. If the officials of the Jin Insight Land are attached to each other. He spoke coldly and laid a nail in front of the emperor. Every word is heart-wrenching. I think the emperor is very angry. Those of us who are doing errands are even more trembling. I'm afraid of being hit by the fish in the pond. It is inevitable that the local center will be reduced by ......"

Qi Su Niang smiled: "Who is the emperor's son?" And all of them are shrewd and capable? The emperor both

The prince was crowned by the establishment of the prince, and the princes were to be in charge of the eight banners according to the full system, and the brothers had people and money in their hands, so they could not toss? If I am replaced, I will have to fight again before I am willing. ”

Chen Yan sighed, "The emperor has given birth to too much, but fortunately, in addition to the prince, the eldest brother, and the thirteenth master, the other C will be the two and a half elder brothers of the princess, and the trouble is not too big." Thinking about it now, the dragons and tigers in the capital are leaping, but fortunately, we are not Beijing officials......"

Chen Yan just took the time to come back to see Qi Su Niang, talked to her, ate eight treasure green bean salt bamboo shoot tea, and hurried out again, Qi Su Niang persuaded: "The emperor is afraid that he has already rested at this time, and you will not go to wait for the order, you are tired for a long time, and you will take a rest."

Chen Yan grabbed his official hat, "The emperor is going to travel tomorrow, and the yellow and red long felts on the Beiqiao Imperial Road are still routinely paved, and the emperor said that it is too expensive, and only loess is allowed to sprinkle the ground." Although I let me do it, I still have to go and see it to rest assured. Moreover, we must also keep an eye on the Lizheng Baojia in all streets and squares, so that they can be spread to every household, and the emperor can no longer raise a fire when he passes by. ”

Qi Su Niang sent Chen to the door, it was nearly four watches, she went to sleep, and she didn't sleep, seeing that the light was still on in Shen Yuezhi's room, she felt strange, so she went to knock on the door, but she didn't expect that it was Qi Qiang who opened the door.

Qi Su Niang's heart was shocked, and she scanned the room, there were two teas on the table outside, with red candles burning, and the two seemed to be talking at night.

Qi Su Niang breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and when she saw Qi Qiang desperately handing her eyes, she smiled and said a few words of gossip, retreated, walked back to her yard, and said to herself: "This Shen girl is also bold, no wonder she dares to escape from the salt merchant's mansion over the wall and escape from marriage, and beg for a living alone by the Qinhuai River in Jiangning......."

She went back to the room and had nothing to do, so she looked through the account books of Qi Qiang's twenty-one dental shops entrusted to him one by one, and took out the diary written down when he traveled with Qi Qiang to negotiate with merchants everywhere a year ago, and slowly warmed up, and unconsciously heard seven sounds of cloud panels outside the middle door, three rings of the outer door, and the sky was already bright. Qi Su Niang covered the account book, but couldn't help but sigh, "I don't care about this big mess and the trouble and money, what is the ninth master going to send him to do......"

Chen Yan was summoned by Kangxi to accompany him, and he did not return for two days, Kangxi drove to Jiangning, Qi Su Niang was full of joy and waited for Chen Yan to go home, but Chen Yan let people send news that Kangxi asked him to go to Jiangning with him.

Qi Su Niang smiled bitterly, so she had to give up. Even the house sent a gift, Qi Su Niang looked at the ten horses of Biqing Gong Bilan clothing taken out of the box, and couldn't help laughing, "Isn't it new from time to time now?" Why did you buy so much? ”

Banye asked for peace, and saw that Qi Su Niang had lost a lot of weight, and her face was not very good, so she was afraid that she would worry too much and consume her vitality. Banye first turned to the lotus fragrance greetings, and Fang said with a smile: "If you go back to Mrs. Futai, the princess will reward the ladies in the mansion with thirty horses of Biqing arch Bilan clothing. Because it is more or less decent, our grandmother Jie specially sent ten horses to Mrs.

Besides, the slave maid made a deaf to Mrs. Futai, and now the most emerging thing in our Yangzhou city is not cherry red and mud gold, but the most emerging is turquoise. Wanhua Chunli is sold out, and there may not be any of the eight major salt merchants, only the two of us, even the slaves and maids have half a horse. The few new clothes that Madame had in her suitcase that she didn't wear were the most decent now. ”

Qi Su Niang was stunned and smiled, her slightly white face was also a little bloody for a while, and she called Zhi'er, "Order a cup of tea for your sister Banye and let her sit, we didn't go out, let her be a female commentator, so as not to bury her sharp teeth." ”

Bi'er, Zhi'er, and Li'er laughed in unison, smiled and pulled Banye to sit on the pedal, ordered a cup of wood rose tea for her, and Banye smiled: "Speaking of which, Mrs. is still high-tech." My aunt and grandmother were worried that they would carry a few Su prostitutes into the door, but they didn't expect that they passed through the eyes of the nobles at the dock, and they were all remembered, and none of them were left behind. At this point, we don't have to worry about the fox entering the house. ”

Zhi'er and Li'er secretly glanced at Qi Su Niang, Qi Su Niang was angry and funny, and said, "You can figure it out, what does this have to do with me?" Tell you to pull it out. Let the two masters in your house hear it, can I still go to the door of your house in the future? ”

Banye grinned, "The slave is a girl, so I don't dare to argue with my wife." It's just that Madame said it late. When the slave and the seed were talking yesterday, the second master heard it, but he laughed so hard that he couldn't do it, and he shouted that he had been tricked, and he turned his head to tell the uncle, the slave and the maid were so frightened that his feet softened, but fortunately, the uncle glared at him and scolded him for having no rules, so he shook it off. Today, the slave maid came to deliver the clothes, but the two masters didn't say a word. ”

Qi Su Niang couldn't laugh, gritted her teeth and said: "You girl looks honest on weekdays, seeing your uncle is like seeing a tiger, who knows that you have a devil's heart, and you dare to break your mouth in front of your grandfather, and you don't know what to arrange me in front of your aunt and grandmother." Bi'er, while it's in our house today, don't hurry up and screw her mouth. ”

Bi'er and Banye laughed, and after a while, Banye Fang smiled and gasped, "Wang Concubine Niangniang inquired from somewhere, the color of these Su prostitutes' clothes followed her appearance, and they were rewarded with these clothes and sent them to our house." If it weren't for my aunt and grandmother, I would have to see it. With such dignity, Aunt Le De only said that Mrs. was prosperous, not to mention that the Lord of Futai was rising every day, and waited in front of the emperor every day, even if we were also stained.
