Chapter 118: Temptation

"Sister," my sister heard what I said, and became even more worried: "It's true that I don't want the Fourteenth Master to have something, but I don't want you to have anything to do, you promise me, don't do anything stupid!" ”

"Got it, sister." I just reacted to how worried my sister should be when she heard this, I better not let her bother anymore - not to mention that I still have a lot of burdens on my body now, such as the Heaven and Earth Society, the Fourteenth Elder Brother, etc., I am afraid that I will not feel at ease if I die: "Sister, you go back and talk to the fourth master, and say that I have something important to see him." "Now I can't go to the fourth child, but I can let the fourth child come to me—I hope my sister can move the fourth child to come over for a run, otherwise my trouble will be more and more!

When I came back from my sister's place, I no longer had the heart to go to a lively occasion like a dinner party, so I directly called a palace maid to say that I was not feeling well and hurried back to the room. Along the way, I kept thinking back to what my sister had said, and the more I thought about it, the more scared I became.

Why did the ninth elder brother order me to inquire about the truth of the fourth elder brother at such a tense moment, there is only one answer, that is, the ninth elder brother suspects that the black hand behind this scene is the fourth brother - if it is really the inn where the fourth elder brother deceived the fourteenth elder brother to go to in order to eliminate dissent, then all my previous assumptions are not true.

I threw myself into the net and sent the fourteenth elder brother to him according to his wish—could it be that he had already guessed that the prince would want to kill two birds with one stone and put the case in his hands? This scheming is too terrifying, how much of a turn does it have to take to figure it out! I was so scared that I couldn't help but hold my heart - if it was really the fourth elder brother, this scheming, my previous cover in front of him was probably in vain!

If you can understand this puzzle that has long been changed by the participation of many parties, how can you not see my little tricks? I guess he even counts my reactions and what I can do, right? I sighed and thought that it still couldn't be compared to ah-how could I, a new human who had lived in the world of the Ming Lord Republic for more than 20 years, calculate these princes and brothers who had been living with conspiracy and calculation as a part of their lives all their lives!

No, it can't be the fourth, if it's the fourth, the fourteenth elder brother will really be dead - so, whether emotionally or intellectually, I don't accept this answer, I must personally find the fourth elder brother to prove it.

"Qiyun, I've been waiting for a while, why are you walking so slowly." I was still denying the conclusions I had reached in my heart, but the fourth elder brother was already standing in front of me.

I just realized that the fourth elder brother also attended today's dinner, probably as soon as my sister told him so, he immediately came. "Fourth elder brother, there are many people here, you-you are not afraid of being seen by others?" In fact, I'm the one who is afraid of being seen by others, I don't have friends now, I have a bunch of enemies, and I really don't want to cause any misunderstandings.

"Didn't you call me brother-in-law last time? My sister heard that my sister was uncomfortable, and my brother-in-law came to see my sister for my sister, which seems to be normal! "The fourth elder brother is still in the mood to tell cold jokes today, I look at him as if he is in a good mood these days, and my heart is becoming more and more bottomless - how can he still be in such a good mood? Unless, could it be that Brother Jiu's guess is true, so he is now complacent?

"Fourth Elder Brother, what are you going to do about the Fourteenth Elder Brother?" If he wasn't behind it, I wouldn't have had to go around in circles with him; If he is behind the scenes, I think he can guess it today, so it is better to ask directly.

"You're asking too directly, aren't you?" The fourth elder brother's eyebrows furrowed, "This is not something you should inquire about, don't you know that the only rule of survival in this palace is to be cautious in your words and deeds?" ”

Be cautious in your words and deeds, that is what only people who have not been involved in it are worthy of saying, and I no longer have that qualification: "Fourth Elder Brother, there are no outsiders here, only me and you, so, Qiyun asked Fourth Elder Brother, what are you going to do?" ”

After the fourth elder brother glanced at me, he suddenly looked up at the sky: "The case of the fourteenth brother is so important to you?" You've fallen out with the prince for him, and now you're here to question me for him? ”

He knew, he knew! My heart began to sink - Emperor Yongzheng, although history has mixed evaluations of you, I have been taken care of by you many times since I crossed over here, and I never want to think of you as a wicked person who refuses to let go of even your own brothers. But you, but how can you ......

"Of course it's important, three life-saving graces, two times of help, in exchange for the fourth elder brother, can you turn a blind eye?" Fourth elder brother, if it was really you who hurt the old fourteenth, I would not forgive you, even if you were destined to be the emperor, I would be your enemy to the end!

"So in order to save my fourteenth brother, you are willing to drag me into the water?" The fourth elder brother still looked up at the sky, so that I could never see his expression: "This doctrine of killing two birds with one stone was given to the prince, right?" You are very clever and know that you will tempt the prince with me, and of course the prince will think that it will be better to deal with me. ”

This is the most that the fourth elder brother has said to me, but I can't tell the truth of his words at all now. I find that if I stay in this palace any longer, I will become as neurotic as the crown prince, and I can only believe anyone except my sister now, right?

"Fourth Elder Brother, it's not right for me to get you into this game, please forgive me for thinking about saving the Fourteenth Elder Brother at that time, and I didn't think about it so much." I said this sentence very unconfidently, how could I not even think of this at the time? "I only hope that the fourth elder brother can save the fourteenth elder brother once for the sake of brotherly affection, Qiyun is willing to let you dispose of it!" When the fourteenth is fine, I will have no worries, before you become the emperor, it is difficult for you to move me!

"Save the fourteenth brother, how do you want me to save the fourteenth brother?" Although the fourth elder brother is still facing the sky, I can still feel that he is smiling bitterly: "The evidence of the crime is conclusive, even the fourteenth himself has confessed, how do you want me to judge?" If I show a little favoritism, I will take the initiative to put my neck on the rope that the prince has hung up! ”

Is he so miserable, is it for himself or for Fourteen? I have always considered the problem from my own standpoint, but I have never considered it from his standpoint - if this matter was not designed by him, he would have done nothing and disaster would have fallen from the sky, and this disaster still came from my frame, can he not be sad?

"Why would the fourteenth elder brother admit it?" Is he crazy? Now that there is no prince to torture him, what is he doing with it, is it great to play?

"Why do you say?" I could already clearly hear the fourth elder brother's wry laughter: "What did you do there that night for no reason?" ”

"I-I see fourteen-that, so-" Is that justified? No, I can't help it, I can't say it's to harm Lao Jiu, right?

"Can you take this reason to the Emperor Amma?" The fourth elder brother interrupted my defense very unceremoniously: "A Gege went out of the palace without permission in the middle of the night, and went to that kind of place of right and wrong, even if the queen mother favors you, the emperor can not cure you for the sake of her old man." If this thing gets out, your innocence will be ruined! ”

Innocent? Just for such a ridiculous thing, Lao Fourteen took the initiative to confess? God knows that this kind of thing is worthless in my heart: "I want to see him, I will go and tell him, I am not afraid of what others say about me, and I will not be short of meat!" ”

"The key is that the fourteenth brother cares!" In the words of the fourth comrade.
