Chapter 136 Chapter 136 What kind of medicine is in the gourd?

The fourth elder brother smiled, walked to the table and sat down to eat.As soon as he finished his meal, Zhao An came in from the outside, handed an inconspicuous small box to the fourth elder brother, and said, "It was sent by Changhuan Building." The fourth elder brother gave a soft "hmm", opened the box, took out an account book from it, glanced at it casually, and saw a note in it, which read a line of small letters: tonight When I was a child, I got together in Changhuanlou.The fourth elder brother was slightly startled, Jin Zhi beside him turned his head and leaned over, wondering: "Who is it?"

The fourth elder brother said lightly: "Nian Gengyao." Jin Zhi was even more surprised: "Isn't he one of your people? Why did you act so mysteriously after meeting?" The fourth elder brother was also puzzled, and he couldn't help but said: "I also want to know what kind of medicine is sold in his gourd?" Changhuan Building is located in the suburb of Dongcheng. Although it is called "lou", it looks more like a huge house. There are no scattered seats inside, only private rooms, and each private room is very far away. Blocked by mountains and rocks, or covered by vegetation, the victory lies in the quiet and elegant environment.

The fourth elder brother didn't ride a horse, but took an unremarkable green woolen sedan chair, and got off the sedan chair outside the corner gate of Changhuan Building. There was already a servant waiting outside with a lantern, leading him to the gate.As soon as you enter the door, you will find a path in the garden shaded by trees. After walking around the ground for a while, the water vapor contained in the air suddenly thickens, and then bypassing a green spot, the sight suddenly widens, and a quiet lake comes oncoming , the ripples in the water shimmered in the moonlight. The bluestone road at the foot extends to the lake, supported by several strong stone pillars, leading to the pavilion on the lake.The young servant who was leading the way with a lantern in front stepped back, the fourth elder brother paused, and walked slowly towards the pavilion.

There was no light in the pavilion, only the bright moonlight poured down from the night sky, and the thin veils hanging around the pavilion were gently blown by the gentle wind from the lake, revealing a figure sitting quietly inside, but it was not Nian Gengyao. , but a slim young woman.The fourth elder brother was surprised, he paused, and stopped at the edge of the pavilion. The woman in the pavilion turned around and looked under the moonlight, only to feel that her brows and eyes were as clean as jade, and she was indescribably soft and charming.The fourth elder brother was stunned for a while, and then hesitantly asked after a long while: "Su Yan?"

Su Yan smiled lightly, stood up from the stool, blessed the fourth elder brother, and asked with a smile: "Yes, it is Su Yan, is the fourth elder brother happy or disappointed?" The fourth elder brother didn't expect that she was still alive, so he was naturally happy to see her appearing suddenly, and replied: "I'm happy, of course I'm happy, do you know that I've been very guilty for such a long time." Su Yan only slightly bent the corners of his lips, "Really? Then everything I did was not in vain." The fourth elder brother was slightly startled when he heard the words, thinking of the difference between Nian Gengyao before and after, and the Changhuanlou who suddenly appeared to collect information for him, he sized her up carefully and asked, "Nian Gengyao Is Yao one of your people?"

Su Yan nodded, showing a slight smile, and replied softly: "What should I do? You don't love me, but my heart is still on you. I always think that even if I can't be with you, I can help you Do something, but when I know that you and Qingchuan are not together, my heart starts to burn, I long to see you, and there is only one thought in my mind - are you lonely? Do you need to find someone Confess?" The fourth elder brother was silent for a moment, and asked: "So you manipulated Nian Gengyao and opened this Changhuanlou?" Su Yan nodded and said, "Yes, I want to prove my strength to you, and I want you to marry me."

The fourth elder brother was stunned. Su Yan laughed at himself, raised his eyes to look at him, and said slowly: "I can't be the person in your heart, I have to be the most useful person to you, I want you to be inseparable from me for the rest of your life." The fourth elder brother looked at her and asked, "Didn't you always dislike fighting?" Su Yan smiled, "Compared with you, personal preference is not important anymore." The fourth elder brother was moved, but also full of bitterness. This woman has loved him so much from the beginning to now, but his heart has long since died. Facing this love, he really has nothing to repay, so instead of cheating For her feelings, it is better to let her go.He was silent for a moment and said, "No need, I've hurt you once, and I don't want to hurt you again."

After speaking, he turned around and walked out of the pavilion. "You know your situation right now. In terms of military strength, you are not as good as the fourteenth brother, and in terms of prestige, you are not as good as the eighth brother. And I not only have the Changhuan building in my hands, but also Nian Gengyao's army. Only If you join forces with me, you will have the leverage to fight against them." The fourth elder brother paused, but did not stop, and just continued to move forward.Su Yan chased up from behind, stopped in front of him, raised his eyes and stared at him and said: "You always only ask for the result, not the process, why are you making an exception for me? Am I really that bad? So bad that you would rather lose the country Don't want to face me?"

Seeing that she misunderstood him, the fourth elder brother couldn't help but smiled wryly: "Su Yan..." Su Yan's face was firm, "You said you didn't want to hurt me, but you've already hurt me to the core. My wound is so big that it won't scab in my life. If that's the case, why don't you let me be with you? Sinking? At least, I can still leave the experience of hand in hand with you in my memory." The fourth elder brother looked at her quietly, and asked softly after a long while: "You don't regret it?" Su Yan shook his head.

"Even if you can never replace the person in my heart, don't you regret it?" With tears in Su Yan's eyes, he shook his head and said, "No regrets! Ever since you took me out of the troupe, I have never regretted it." The fourth elder brother stretched out his hand and pulled her into his arms, hugging her tightly. Su Yan buried her head in his arms and began to cry. After so much hard work and so many calculations, she was finally able to stand beside this man openly.She used to be very humble waiting for others to reward her, but she almost lost her life. Later, she realized that no matter what she wants, she has to fight for it herself. If anyone wants to stop her, she will meet the gods and kill the gods. ...

The fourth elder brother married a new side Fujin, the younger sister of General Nian Gengyao. Jin Zhi is no longer the coquettish and willful Si Fujin she used to be, who only knows how to be bitter and jealous. She knows why Si elder brother married Nian Gengyao's younger sister.Since the thirteenth elder brother was imprisoned, the fourth elder brother had been cut off with an arm, and became even more isolated and helpless in the court.Marrying Nian Gengyao's younger sister right now is tantamount to binding Nian Gengyao tightly to the fourth elder brother. The military power in his hands will become the greatest help to the fourth elder brother. But even if she understood this, Jin Zhi still felt uncomfortable, so she persuaded herself that she is not marrying an ordinary person, but an elder brother of the royal family, so she should have three wives and four concubines. If she becomes an emperor in the future, there will be three palaces Six homes. It wasn't until the day Nanian Fujin entered the mansion that Jin Zhi sat on a chair and received her tea, only then did he realize in astonishment that the kneeling Nian Fujin in front of him was Su Yan who had come back from the dead.Jin Zhi stared at her blankly, forgetting to pick up the tea for a while. The fourth elder brother caught a glimpse, afraid that Jin Zhi would be jealous again, so he reminded in a low voice: "Take the tea." Only then did Jin Zhi come to his senses, turned his head to look at the fourth elder brother, and then turned to look at Su Yan, but after a long while he showed a wry smile, so what if he tried everything possible to marry in?It's just guarding an empty shell with her.She smiled softly, and handed out the meeting gift that she had already prepared. The fourth elder brother saw that Jin Zhi didn't make any trouble, he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and asked someone to send Su Yan back to his room, while he came to the outer courtyard by himself. The banquet outside was lively, because the fourteenth elder brother had just returned to Beijing, a group of elder brothers were drinking him, and he was drunk in a short time.As soon as the fourth elder brother came out, everyone shifted their targets again, smiling and toasting to him, the groom.The fourth elder brother smiled and drank a few cups, seeing that the fourteenth elder brother was already very drunk, he hurriedly ordered Zhao An to send him back to the palace first. Fourteenth elder brother returned to the palace, but he did not go to elder brother's place, but came to Yonghe Palace to see Concubine De, never thought that Kangxi was here with Concubine De.Fei Cui saw Fourteenth Brother coming in drunk, fearing that he would offend Kangxi, she hurriedly stopped him in the yard, and persuaded him: "Fourteenth Brother, you are drunk, this servant will help you go back and rest. .” Brother Fourteen did not leave, he laughed loudly and shouted: "I am not drunk, let me go, I still want to drink... Who can drink better? Fourteenth Master, I have drunk all the time!" of!" Saying that, he shook off Jade and walked into the hall. Concubine De had just praised to Kangxi that the fourteenth elder brother was filial and sensible, but unexpectedly he came back drunk and his face changed with fright. Like this?" The fourteenth elder brother smiled and said, "I am happy that the fourth brother is getting married today." Concubine De was afraid that he would say something drunk again without seeing Kangxi, so she hurriedly reminded him: "Hurry up and salute your Huang Ama!" The fourteenth elder brother just saw Kangxi, laughed, turned around and knelt down on the ground with a thud, and shouted: "I see Huang Ama!" Kangxi was already displeased, frowned, and said: "It smells of alcohol, take him back to rest quickly." Concubine De hurriedly asked the maid to help Elder Fourteen back to Elder Brother's place, and she hurriedly reconciled in front of Kangxi: "Your Majesty, Old Fourteen is not like this usually, he..." Kangxi interrupted her in a cold voice, "You don't have to smooth things over for him, people who drink without restraint are even more restrained when doing other things." Just as he was talking, Li Dequan came in with a plate of steamed purple potatoes, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the purple potatoes are ready." Kangxi turned his head to take a look, and said to Concubine De: "In terms of maturity and prudence, your youngest son is probably not even one-tenth of your eldest son. This fourth son usually doesn't look very good, but he does it himself at home. , and sent the purple sweet potatoes I planted for me to eat, no matter what the food is, this piece of filial piety is rare!" Concubine De bowed her head to listen to the training, but she felt a little complicated in her heart. Right now, the eighth elder brother fell out of favor, and it was the time when the old fourteenth showed his face in front of Kangxi. Unexpectedly, the fourth one took the top spot. It is not a solution to go on like this, we have to find a way It would be good to win this round for the old fourteen, but how should we do it?It is necessary to achieve the goal without making people guess her body. Concubine De concubine was thinking quickly, her eyes lit up when she glanced at the purple sweet potato in Li Dequan's hand, and she had an idea in her heart.She obediently listened to Kangxi's training, and when she saw Li Dequan bring the purple potato in front of Kangxi, she said softly: "The emperor still has an empty stomach, it will be uncomfortable to eat this, let's eat it after dinner." After speaking, he took the purple potato and handed it to Fei Cui beside him, giving her a wink.Fei Cui was startled for a moment, then retreated with the purple potato in her hand.
