Chapter 164: The Fourth Master's Worries
Before Yuqing and the others could answer, there was already a chaotic sound outside, as if it was a fist to the flesh, and it seemed that there was a sound of a heavy object falling, which made the three weak women in the room nervously shrink into a ball together, including Erfu, who has the heart of a female man.
After a few moments, when the courtyard was calm again, Erph pretended to be bold enough to move to the door, pulled off the bolted latch, opened a crack that was large enough to reveal one eye, and watched the movement outside by the lantern hanging under the porch and the faint light of the candlestick in the courtyard.
"Master, be careful!" Yuqing seemed to be taken aback by Erfu's bold behavior, and it took a long time to come back to his senses and whisper.
Erf put her hands behind her back, waved slightly, and tried to widen her eyes, but still did not notice the slightest mistake, so she reluctantly retracted her head and slammed the latch again.
Because he was worried that someone would take the risk of setting fire, Erfu filled the Taiping jar in the courtyard with clean water, and put several large vases on the ground in the room, and even wet the two beds and put them on the couch, only preparing the fire outside, and rushed out of the door, so when he heard the movement outside, it was like a frightened bird.
"In a moment, if there is any danger, leave the room alone, just take care of yourself!" Erph said softly as she sat back on the kang.
Yuqing and the others nodded slightly, they had already known that they had detected Erfu's intentions from what Erfu asked them to do, and their hearts were also up and down, but the master didn't run, so they naturally couldn't run, and now Erfu is considered to be a guilty body, if they break out of the house, the cliff will die so miserably.
....................................
The night was finally dispelled by the wisps of dawn, and the east gradually crawled out a trace of fish belly white, and Erfu's nervous mood that had been worried all night was finally temporarily calmed, and then he felt the soreness in his body, let out a long breath, slowly pushed open the door that had been closed all night, and stood under the corridor, his hands stretched out, feeling the warmth and peace of mind brought by the sun.
That night, Erf didn't sleep well, and the other women didn't sleep well.
The Ulanala clan didn't close their eyes all night, and kept asking Mama Fu to pay attention to the movements in the West Courtyard, but the world seemed to fall into a deathly tranquility, although there was a short period of turmoil and unrest, but it quickly calmed down, and what she was expecting did not happen.
When the first rays of sunlight fell on the bed curtain with a bright red embroidered peony pattern, the Ulanara clan finally couldn't lie down, and his voice was slightly hoarse and called the personal maid to come in and serve.
After a simple wash, Qizhen applied a layer of albumin-colored official powder to cover up the black green under the eyes of the Ulanala clan, and then sent the rock sugar bird's nest that had been stewed in the small kitchen.
"Master, you can use it a little!" Knowing the worry and uneasiness in the heart of the Ulanala clan, Mama Fu hurriedly persuaded softly.
Wulanala took a few deep breaths of the early morning air, and finally took the yellow-bottomed Fuzi porcelain bowl in Mama Fu's hand, and took a sip, but a pair of eyes kept looking at the movement outside, looking at the canopy that was a little messy by the wind, and there were endless worries hidden in the slightly drooping eyes from time to time.
The Li family in the east courtyard was even more bored early in the morning to send away Mo Yaqi, who had been chattering around him, and called in the big girl who was originally beside her, and now the housekeeper Mama Shen Mama, whispered something to hear, but it can be seen from the sound of the jingling heavy object falling to the ground that this Li is also in a bad mood.
Last night, the Li family sent out the two little eunuchs Taihe and Tai'an in the courtyard, and also contacted the people who had been placed in the west courtyard before, just so that Guargarfu could shut up before the fourth master came back, and Taihe and Tai'an, who were supposed to come back last night to reply, never came back.
Although Li tried very hard to comfort herself, but from the moment she knew that the Wulanala clan did not make any moves last night, she knew that this battle, she lost, she lost completely, unless there was a miracle today, a thunderbolt killed Erfu who was locked in the west courtyard, otherwise she would be the mastermind behind this plot, and she would completely lose the heart of the fourth master.
Compared with the uneasiness of the Wulanala clan and the discouragement of the Li clan, Song Shu Fujin's reaction was quite ordinary, from beginning to end she was a person watching the play, she did not calculate Wang Gege, who was pregnant, she did not step on it when Erfu was in trouble, she did not arrange people to do anything, she just waited quietly, no matter who succeeded, she was already invincible, and even said that she was the biggest winner of this battle, because she was not in the slightest danger.
Wang Gege's miscarriage, no matter who the black hand is, the Wulanala clan will end up with a bad reputation for governing the family, and the Li family will end up with a name for poor care, and she is just a spectator, she is very relieved, at this time, she is eating a delicious breakfast slowly, looking at the little bun Yierha who stretches her arms and legs from time to time, she is a kind and gentle mother.
The four golden flowers in the backyard have also gotten up, are gathering in the main room, this is the first time since they entered the house, they feel from the bottom of their hearts, only unity, they can win a place here, that bloodless war, let them know what it means to be thousands of favors in one, and it also condenses the resentment of the women in the backyard, from beginning to end, they can see very clearly, whether it is the secret hatred and calculation in the eyes of the Wulanala clan, the jealousy that has been hung on the face of the Li clan, the surprise in the eyes of the Guerjia clan, they want to fight for the future for the family, they also want to become a symbol of standing tall in the fourth master's mansion, so they must unite, they must give up the long-term comparison and calculation, they must put their selfishness at the end, so as to protect them.
Four delicate roses, they are not only vase-like beauties, but also have extraordinary ambitions, after some discussion, they still went back to their rooms to change into the most plain, inconspicuous robes, wearing simple plain silver inlaid pink jade jewelry, leading the personal maid to walk in the direction of the main courtyard.
Of course, they don't really respect the Ulanala clan, but they want to see the movement outside, after all, they don't have the slightest power in this inner mansion, they seem to be blind and deaf, so go and ask the Ulanala clan to say goodbye and see the reaction of the Ulanala clan, which is the easiest way to judge what happened last night.
As soon as she came to the gate of the main courtyard, Mama Fu walked out with a smile on her face, and bowed apologetically, "A few Gege, our Fu Jin is a little unwell today, and the old slave is about to arrange for someone to go over to inform him, but I didn't expect a few Geges to come so early, but let a few Gegekong run away, and ask a few Gegeduo to bear with me!"
"Fu Mama said this strictly, since Fu Jin is not well, then we won't bother much, but I don't know if Fu Jin can be strict?" Wang Lanzhi smiled and bent her knees, and asked softly.
Mama Fu smiled lightly and nodded, "Thank you for thinking about it, our Fujin just got up early to blow the wind, and now we are asleep after drinking some ginger soup!"
"That's good, let's go first!" Wang Lanzhi's eyes flashed with a ray of essence, her lips hooked slightly, skillfully concealing the mockery on her face, and said softly.
As the four golden flowers of the Wang family slowly walked away, the smile on Mama Fu's face finally converged, beckoned to the side, and sent a few little eunuchs in the courtyard to inform them one by one, and then walked back to the room quickly, and walked behind the Ulanala clan who was frowning and fiddling with chess pieces, and loosened her shoulders for the Wulanala clan, and said the reaction of the four golden flowers of the Wang family just now.
In fact, people are like this, often you think that it is a good thing to cover up, but in the eyes of others, it is the most obvious, and Mama Fu is a person who has been mixed in the inner house for most of her life, those eyes are not inferior to Sun Wukong's fiery eyes, for the communication of the four golden flowers secretly, they have already seen it in their eyes, but they have not been debunked, and the Wulanala clan has been taught by the upbringing grandmother in the palace since he was a child, and the mind is naturally the most detailed, listening to Mama Fu's words that have been clarified, how can she not understand the meaning of the other party, the mood is instantly much better, and the corners of her mouth have already hung a mocking smile。
..............................
The good mood of the Wulanala clan did not last long, because Zhang Bao, who was with the fourth master, had already hurried back when the fourth master was waiting for Kangxi to enter the palace, as for why he came back so quickly. This can only be clear when the fourth master comes back, but the Wulanala clan is not in much of a hurry, because according to the usual practice, the fourth master will probably return to the house a day or two after Zhang Bao, plus this time back, Zhang Bao came back with a mission, and did not come to the inner courtyard to ask for peace for the Wulanala clan, so the Wulanala clan thought that the fourth master would not return to the house until the twenty-sixth, and she still had one night to take care of those backs.
Mama Fu turned into a small spinning top and busily shuttled through the inner mansion, but she never dreamed that her actions had already fallen into the eyes of the people arranged by Zhang Bao.
It turned out that last night, the Li family arranged for Taihe and Tai'an to go to the West Courtyard to carry out the task of extermination, but they didn't want to worry that when the fourth master was leaving, they were worried that Erfu, a rough and leafy person, would be in danger, so they arranged a few secret guards in the West Courtyard to protect Erfu, which can be regarded as a way to favor Erfu, in fact, Erfu had already discovered these people, but because she didn't want to do anything behind the back of the fourth master, she always pretended not to know, even if she suddenly encountered such a thing, she also arranged for the people around her to be vigilant step by step, instead of letting people go over to contact the guards who were hiding in the shadows。
When Taihe and Tai'an took the highly poisonous bamboo leaf green bought from the snake catcher outside the house, and with the help of the spies planted in the west courtyard, they carefully drilled into the dog hole in the backyard of the west courtyard, and the guards had already discovered them, and at the moment when Taihe was about to push open the window crack, they appeared behind them in the image of a ninja, and quickly tied several people into zongzi and threw them in the corner next to the main house, avoiding the eyes of Erfu who looked at the situation outside, so Erfu didn't know that she was simply on the edge of life and death。
It's just that the secret guard dared to hide from Erfu, but he didn't dare to hide it from the fourth master, he had already released a carrier pigeon at night, and sent what happened in the mansion in the past two days to the fourth master, and the fourth master who learned about the situation in this mansion directly turned into an iceberg, beckoning Zhang Bao who was following him, and arranged Zhang Bao back in advance to protect Erfu, who was obviously a little natural, and the fourth master, who was already outside the city at the time, continued to follow the holy car to serve.
In fact, the calculation of the Ulanala clan was not wrong, but she didn't expect that Erfu, who had been calculated by Igege and fell off the horse, had such a heavy weight in the mind of the fourth master, so that the fourth master arranged a secret guard for Erfu to protect her safety, and she didn't know that Kangxi Ye was a little tired this time, and as soon as he returned to the palace, he sent the people who accompanied him, and did not let people wait to see him, and even said that she really didn't expect Kangxi Ye to enter the city so silently.
It turned out that the prince was sick in Texas this time, and Kangxi Ye loved his son and left the imperial doctor around him in Texas, which was not at ease, but also transferred several imperial doctors left in Beijing to Texas, and rushed back to the capital along the way, preparing to send the five-hundred-year-old ginseng in the private treasury to the prince, so he did not wait for the courtiers to go out of the city to greet him as usual, so he returned directly to the palace, making the Wulanala clan so wolf, this is called fate to make people, people are not as good as heaven!
Before sunset, the fourth master had already returned to the fourth master's mansion on a yellow horse with shiny fur, and regardless of the dust and dust, he threw the reins of the horse to Su Peisheng, and quickly stepped over the weeping flower gate, pushed away the doorkeeper who greeted him, and walked towards the direction of the west courtyard.
Such a gaffe of the fourth master is something that the people in the fourth master's mansion have never seen, when the Wulanala clan heard the maids' reply, his heart couldn't help but break, he thought it was a very strong heart, but it was still as if he was being kneaded by a big hand, and his heart was so distressed that the Wulanala clan couldn't speak, and waved his hand at the maid slightly weakly, and sent away the people who talked back.
"Master, don't think about it, maybe the fourth master scolded Fang Fujin in the past!" Qizhen said with some uneasiness.
The Wulanala clan smiled a little distractedly, but it was a little uglier than crying, and said in a deep voice: "This, I'm afraid you don't even believe it, but it doesn't matter, when I first married into the royal family, shouldn't I know what life is like, compared to the previous Seven Blessings and the current Three Blessings, my good life has been too long!"
........................
I have to say that the Wulanala clan and the fourth master have been together for many years, and they really know the fourth master, if the fourth master just wants to ask the Guerjia clan, he will naturally not rush over, but will directly let the Guerjia clan come to the main courtyard, and now the fourth master went to the west courtyard to see Erfu, it was completely because he was worried about Erfu's comfort, even though the fourth master knew that Erfu was guarded by a few secret guards, but when he knew that someone was actually going to put a snake in her room, his heart really rose again, as if he had experienced the moment when Erfu fell off the horse。 R1152
