Chapter 426

"Not yet. Yaoqin cautiously glanced around, then moved half a step to the side of the sedan chair in small broken steps, and replied in a low voice.

When Erfu heard this, he didn't answer, but raised his jade hand lightly, carried a gold chain attached to the placket, and took out a pocket watch from the gap next to the placket, and checked the time.

According to the estimation of time, even if Zhao Dezhu walked and wandered around Lord Cangshu's mansion for half an hour, it was time to send the news back. Not only that, but Zhao Dezhu couldn't get out, and the secret guards who followed him should also come back one and a half......

Thinking of this, Erph felt a little ominous in her heart.

"Hurry up and send me back to change my clothes, I'll go to the Xuan Pavilion to have a look in a while." Erph barely suppressed the uneasiness and panic in her heart, touched her sideburns indiscriminately, and commanded softly.

While speaking, Erfu's soft sedan chair had already stopped at the door of the west courtyard.

The news that Erfu returned to the West Courtyard in embarrassment soon spread through an open mouth and spread throughout the entire Fourth Master's Mansion.

When the Li family, who was taking advantage of the time to accompany the Beatitudes to the garden, he went back to the yard to change clothes and make up, and when he heard the news, he smiled and rewarded the little palace maid who sent the letter with a red gold hairpin, and the whole person radiated a kind of schadenfreude from the inside out.

"The. Li sent the little palace maid who delivered the letter, and walked out of the inner room with a smile on her face before she was dressed, and casually carried it over the round table in the east room, and the pot containing osmanthus wine poured the wine into her mouth with the spout, and let the wine flow down the corner of her mouth on the placket. laughed wildly, "It's just that relying on the ability to be born and be able to be born is pressed on the head of Ben Fujin, and now I am begging for the concubine Niangniang in vain." As a result, stealing chickens and rice did not make a mistake, not only failed to please the concubine Niangniang, but provoked the disgust of the concubine Niangniang, which really made Ben Fujin feel relieved and sullen in his heart. ”

"Master, you can be quiet, if others hear this, I'm afraid that it will cause trouble again. Roulan stepped forward. There was a flattering smile in the corner of his eyes, and he persuaded in a small voice, as if he also thought that what Li said made sense. It's as if Erf is an arrogant, tyrannical and bad master in the house.

But she was like this on her face, but she secretly felt that something was wrong with this in her heart.

Not to mention that Concubine Tong Jia is a guest who comes to the banquet, she is the serious lady of Concubine De, the fourth master, and she will not make such a thing on such a day. Isn't this a clear step on the face of the fourth master under his feet!

As a palace concubine who has been immersed in the palace for half her life. If you don't have a little belly, even if you are really provoked by the Guarjia clan on a day like this, you will be patient, and you will find it back later.

But this time, Concubine Tong Jia has made a fuss about things like this, if there is no cat here...... She never believed it, she was not the Li family, who had long hated the Guerjia clan to the bone and hated her so much that she completely lost her mind.

Roulan thought about it for a while, and it only took a moment to make up her mind.

After serving the Li family in a while. I was going to go to the courtyard of Xinggege, although Xinggege was not qualified to attend such an occasion. But as the person next to the fourth master's pillow, she will always know the fourth master better than herself, Roulan thought so in her heart.

Not to mention how happy the Li family was with this news, the Wulanala clan and the concubine Wuya, who suddenly got the news over there, were stunned, and asked again in disbelief, and specially sent the cautious palace people around them to inquire about the news, and after getting the same news, they reacted.

"The fourth child is a little reckless today!" "Concubine De Niangniang, this Eniang, knows the character of the fourth child very well, and also knows her opponent who has been fighting for half her life - Tong Jia Guifei, although she doesn't know much about what happened between the fourth child and Erfu and Tong Jia Guifei, but she didn't believe that the three of them would make such a fuss, so she quickly guessed a possibility, and even if the result of the guess was not the truth, it was very close to the facts, which made her heart jump, and at the same time felt that the fourth child was too rough to deal with this matter.

The Ulanala clan is not as smart and witty as Concubine De, but she is not a fool, seeing that Concubine De Niangniang is still reaching out to pick flowers in a leisurely manner, she is not in a hurry, "This is the last festival of the year, or should I let Sister Erfu come out and walk around, even if I am grounded, I can't choose such a day!"

E-niang, what do you see?"

"You have a point. Concubine De was happy to see that her daughters-in-law could get along well, and she looked at the Ulanala clan with a smile, and saw that the Ulanala clan's eyes were full of the meaning of protection for Erfu from her heart, and nodded with some agreement, "This palace is old, this leg is not good, I plan to rest here, you can run a leg for this palace, so that the grounding of the Guerjia clan will start again tomorrow." ”

After speaking, he waved his hand as if he was tired, sent the Ulanala clan, and helped the close palace maid to walk to a corner pavilion on the side.

The Wulanala clan didn't dare to delay, and they didn't worry that there was no one to accompany Concubine De Niangniang, so they explained that Mama Fu was taking care of her, and then led a few palace maids of the Qi generation under her hand to the direction of the west courtyard.

Although the Ulanala clan had a bottom in his heart, his steps were still very hurried.

When she hurried all the way from the garden to the west courtyard, Erfu was lying comfortably on the beauty couch, and by applying a hot hand towel to her knees and forehead, she asked Yaoqin, who is good at medical skills, to pinch her shoulders and relax her body for a while!

"You enjoy it so much, let Niangniang and I worry about you in vain. The Ulanala clan entered the main room without letting people pass through, and looked at Erfu's leisurely and complacent virtue, and laughed angrily, and sat on the beauty couch where Erfu was lying, stretched out his hand to push Erfu, who was still recuperating with his eyes closed, and scolded with a smile.

Erfu and the Ulanala clan have long been familiar with each other, and they really get along like sisters and best friends, although they were nodded by the Ulanala clan and said a word, but there was no tension and uneasiness on their faces, and they got up with a smile and hugged the shoulders of the Ulanala clan. Coquettishly shook and shook, "Isn't this my grounding!"

Besides, I'm just having fun in the midst of suffering!

Look at my head. Is there still a big bruise! Look at my knees are already purple!

Obviously I'm so pitiful, but I don't know how many people in this house think I deserve it!" As she spoke, Erf had already rolled up her trousers above her knees, and asked the Ulanala clan to make the decision for her with some coquettishness.

When Ulanara came in, Erf still had a hot veil on her head, and she really didn't notice the injury on Erf's head. I didn't expect that she was really injured, just a scene made by Concubine Tong Jia and the three of them, and at this moment, I saw the bruises on Erfu's legs and the bruises on her face. I couldn't bear it.

I saw that the originally ridiculous smile on her face flickered, and she took out the patience that she had coaxed Honghui to take medicine back then, her tone was soft and soothing, and she touched Erfu's knee with a doting smile on her face. He blew lightly again. said softly: "Okay, okay, you are the most pitiful."

Niangniang feels sorry for you for suffering, and I feel sorry for you for being wronged, so let me tell you that the days of grounding start tomorrow. ”

Erfu was going to go to Xuanting to keep an eye on her, but Yaoqin also persuaded her to be honest and not continue to make the fourth master angry. Quite provocatively, he glanced at Yaoqin, who was standing aside and twisting the handkerchief. said with a smile: "Then dare to be kind, or I'm still worried that I will be punished for a while!"

"What happened?" After so many years, the Ulanala clan had already seen through the relationship between Erfu and the fourth master, and they would definitely not make trouble for the sake of trivial matters, so after a few laughs, he pulled the topic back and asked with a serious face.

"I don't know if this is true or not, but it's the news that Concubine Tong Jia got from it. Erfu glanced at the people in the room, leaving only Yaoqin to wait, and even a few palace maids of the Qi generation around the Wulanala clan were driven out, and then said in a low voice, "It is said that someone wants to take the opportunity to pour a basin of sewage on our master's head that plots rebellion and kills his father and king." ”

"Ah?" Although the Ulanala clan was prepared in her heart, she had never thought about it in the end, and suddenly she cried out in surprise, and thanks to the sharp hands and feet of Erf, who was sitting next to her, she reached out and gagged her mouth when she heard a sound, otherwise she was really afraid that her mouth would call this thing out faster than her brain.

Seeing that she had calmed down again, Erfu withdrew her hand, with a sneering smile on her face, "I don't know if this is true or not, it is estimated that it is just a small calculation arranged by the person, although it is dangerous, but the fourth master has already taken precautions, and he will not make any big trouble in the future!"

"No wonder!" Ulanala had calmed down, looked at the bruise on Erf's head, nodded slightly, and muttered.

"If this doesn't make a serious fuss, Concubine Tong Jia won't be able to let people invite the fourth master to come over to talk, just for this matter, Concubine Tong Jia also specially burned her wrist to make a scene. Erfu also followed her words, continued to say two sentences, and made a little introduction to Concubine Tong Jia's injury, and specially emphasized the affected area, to show that although this matter is a big trouble, it is not easy to arouse the suspicion of others, after all, women in the world, whether rich or poor, the skin of this body is very important, especially in the exposed places, it is a big deal to hurt a little bit, let alone the women in the palace!

"Who else knows about this?" the Ulanala clan nodded in agreement and asked in a deep voice.

Erfu frowned slightly, and was silent for three or five breaths before slowly opening her mouth: "Now except for me, Concubine Tong Jia, and the fourth master, only you know, and even they didn't know anything before." As he spoke, Erfu pointed to Yaoqin, whose face was full of surprise.

The Ulanala clan got up a little irritably and walked around the inner room a few times, frowning, making the air solemn, and a little dazzled all the way around Delph, so he sat down next to Erfu again, and asked in a low voice, "How many guards do you have by your side?"

"Not a single one. Erff spread her hands helplessly and shook her head.

"How come?" "How could it be?" The Ulanala clan knew that there were four masters in the mansion who had raised secret guards privately, and they also knew that there were no less than four secret guards around Erfu who were constantly protecting them day and night, so when Erfu replied no, her whole body exploded.

Erfu said again about the fact that Lord Atractylodes's family had picked up the post and did not appear on time, which was a clear explanation of the whereabouts of the secret guards around her, as for the two secret guards she left to guard the courtyard gate, she did not tell the Ula Nala clan.

It's not that she has the intention to hide it from the Wulanala clan, she understood her plan as soon as she heard the Wulanala clan ask, but these two secret guards were not rewarded to the fourth master by the old man Kangxi, but the private soldiers raised by the fourth master privately, which belong to the forces that cannot be placed in the open.

These two secret guards guarding the courtyard gate, except for Erfu, Fourth Master and Zhang Bao, even Su Peisheng didn't know, they had been disguised as an inconspicuous rough envoy before, and they hadn't performed any tasks, so even the few secret guards who had been guarding Erfu's side to protect her safety didn't know about it.

"@#$%&*......" Thinking of this, Erfu had a lot of heart, put it in the ear of the Ulanala clan, and muttered a few words softly, explaining that the Wulanala clan must not send all the secret guards in the mansion who are not placed on the bright side to the Xuanting, just leave this matter to the fourth master to arrange, lest they get involved, and they can't help, but they will help.

As soon as she heard Erf talk about this, she quickly figured it out, nodded with a smile, and praised: "Don't be impressed for three days, you have become wiser." ”

Erfu scratched her head shyly and smiled, "What's the matter, I didn't have such an idea because the fourth master didn't mention the matter of the secret guards around me." ”

"Okay, Niangniang is still thinking about it, I won't delay you any longer, you hurry up and pack up and hurry over. Ulanala smiled and patted Erph on the shoulder, then took a closer look at the bruise on her forehead, and saw that there was really nothing serious, so he was relieved.

After saying that, the Ulanala clan had already walked out without waiting for Erfu to get up.

Erfu did not hold back to these mundane rituals, beckoned Yaoqin to apply grease and powder for her, re-dressed, and changed into a precious, gorgeous dark red embroidered silk placket costume, and once again appeared radiantly at the door of the West Courtyard.

Here, she refreshed her makeup and went to the Xuan Pavilion.

Over there, Concubine Tong Jia had also applied the scalding medicine, and drank a bowl of decoction to clear the heat and remove the fire, which made the palace people apply powder for her, and changed into a bright yellow dress with a weak face, combed her hair, hairpinned with a full set of gold-inlaid jade heads, and walked out of the door with an ink-colored mink fur on the outside, sat in a soft sedan chair carried by four people, and rushed to the direction of Xuanting.

At the same time, the female dependents who were wandering and enjoying the play everywhere also gathered in the direction of the Xuan Pavilion under the leadership of the palace maid.

As for the male guests who accompanied the old man Kangxi to enjoy the lanterns, they came to the Xuan Pavilion one step earlier than their female dependents, and they were enjoying the singing and dancing performances on the lake, looking very leisurely.
