Poor Family

"Yo, what a rare visitor, it's hard for you to still remember the Cai family!"

Shi Fuyin took Shi Fuxin and Shi Dinghao to the Jiang'anhou Mansion, handed over the jade pendant given by Governor Cai, and the concierge quickly reported it. After a while, Young Master Cai met the three siblings in the living room.

Master Cai Xiaohou played with the jade pendant in his hand, and looked at the three siblings: "How long has your family been back to Beijing?"

Shi Dinghao couldn't let the two older sisters talk to the outsider, so he did his part and said, "It's been almost three years."

Master Cai Xiaohou let out a 'huh', and said quietly: "It's been so long since you've been back, this is the first time you've entered my house, right?"

Shi Dinghao sneered: "Aren't we embarrassed?"

Cai Xiaohou looked at him: "Then why are you so embarrassed now?"

Shi Dinghao said directly: "Young Lord, my brother was framed by Zeng Meiren and sent to prison by the emperor. Life and death are at stake. How can we care about embarrassment?"

Young Master Cai glanced at Qiqi and Shi Fuyin and Shi Fuxin: "The emperor lost his prince, this is not easy."

Shi Fuxin stated the facts directly: "My brother can't harm Beauty Zeng, let alone the little prince."

Cai Xiaohouye: "That's not necessarily true. Zeng Meiren's grandfather, the former Shaoqing of Dali Temple, was dismissed because of your family, right?"

"Your family has a feud with the Zeng family. Once Beauty Zeng gives birth to a dragon heir, the Zeng family may rise up again. At that time, the Zeng family will definitely take revenge on you."

"In this way, the child in Zeng Meiren's belly will become a thorn in the side of your family."

"Shi Dingxuan's motive was to kill the little prince."

When hearing these words, Fuyin's three siblings frowned frequently, but the three of them also understood that this was the thought that most people would have.

Shi Fuxin looked at the unhurried Young Master Cai, and understood that her brother's life was insignificant in others' eyes, and she didn't want to continue wasting time with Zhou Xuan, so she said directly: "Master Cai, back then my brother and brother saved your life , do you still recognize this favor?"

Cai Xiaohou raised his eyebrows and looked at her, with a strong interest in his eyes.

Nice and direct enough.

After so many years, he can still remember the sly tone of the little girl holding her brother and her younger brother to prevent them from sending him back to the barracks immediately.

This girl is a wolf in sheep's clothing, she looks harmless to humans and animals, but she is actually the most determined and successful among the four siblings.

"Yes, of course I have to. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be alive today." The word "you" implies something.

Shi Fuxin stood up: "Then ask the young master to save my brother."

Master Cai Xiaohou looked at the jade pendant in his hand: "Are you sure you want to use this favor on this matter?" Seeing the three siblings, he was about to express his opinion, but raised his hand to interrupt, "It was agreed in advance that I may not be able to deal with the death of the little prince." Help, don't have too high expectations."

The three siblings looked very heavy, but they still nodded in affirmation.

"Thank you, little marquis."

When they came out of Jiang Anhou's mansion, because of Cai Xiaohou's ambiguous statement, the three of Shi Fuyin and his brother felt very solemn.

Shi Fuxin: "You can't just count on Young Master Cai."

Shi Fuyin nodded her head: "Let's go to Zhao's house again, if Big Brother Zhao can help Brother, the Emperor might not be so angry with Brother."

Shi Fuxin looked at her elder sister and younger brother: "Sister, Jiulang, you go to Zhao's house, I will go to Zhanfu."

Hearing Zhanfu, Shi Fuyin and Shi Dinghao both looked at Shi Fuxin.

Shi Fuxin: "I've been in Beijing for so long, it's time for me to see my brother." After a pause, "I calculated when Zeng Meiren was pregnant, and logically speaking, the child in her belly should be full-term this month. Even if she was born prematurely, it was not too early."

"How can a full-term child die so easily?"

Shi Dinghao hurriedly said: "When Brother was arrested, Miracle Doctor Zhan happened to be asking the emperor for a pulse. Maybe he really knows something inside."

Shi Fuxin nodded, and then split up with her elder sister and younger brother, she went to the Zhan Mansion, while Shi Fuyin and Shi Dinghao went to the Zhao Mansion.

Compared with the pavilions, pavilions and rockery pavilions of other mansions in the capital, the layout of Zhanfu is much simpler, and various medicinal herbs and flowers are planted everywhere in the huge yard.

Because she didn't want to reveal her identity as an old man in Tianchi, Shi Fuxin didn't go through the main entrance to ask for an interview, but directly went over the wall and entered the Zhanfu quietly.

Zhan Fei was not there, and Shi Fuxin couldn't walk around the first time she came to the door, so she stayed in the living room and waited.

At the same time, at the gate of the palace, Zhan Fei frowned and got into his carriage.

All the way back home, Zhan Fei's expression didn't improve.

"The old man is right. The palace is the most ruthless place in the world."

Zhan Fei entered the mansion with a sigh, and stopped as soon as he entered the courtyard, looking at the living room with a slightly concentrated gaze.

someone!

The concierge didn't say anyone was visiting, so it seemed that someone had entered the room without authorization.

A look of disgust appeared on Zhanfei's face.

The people in the capital are so annoying, they think they have power and power, and they can give orders as they please, as if everyone has to listen to them.

Hmph, it seems that he is still too good-tempered.

Zhanfei flipped his right hand over, and a bone tickling pill was ejected into the living room.

The bone itching pill was specially formulated by him to deal with high-ranking officials, and it would not harm the body, but the person who was contaminated with the powder would feel extremely uncomfortable, as if there were thousands of ants crawling and gnawing on the bone, it was extremely itchy.

The detoxification method is to drink horse urine.

Thinking of the aggrieved scene where the poisoned person had to drink horse urine, Zhan Fei couldn't help but be overjoyed.

However.

"call out!"

The moment the pill flew into the living room, a leaf flew out and bounced the pill back quickly and accurately.

Zhan Fei quickly dodged to the side, avoiding the pill.

"Is this the way of treating guests like a genius doctor?"

Accompanied by a playful female voice, Shi Fuxin in a bright red skirt appeared in the center of the living room with her hands behind her back, looking at Zhanfei standing in the yard with a smile.

Seeing that the person who came was Shi Fuxin, Zhan Fei was full of surprise, thinking of the flying pills, he hummed: "This is the upbringing of the Wuchang uncle's mansion, sneaking into other people's mansion at will?"

After finishing speaking, he looked Shi Fuxin up and down, "You are still a girl."

Shi Fuxin frowned: "Why, is Doctor Zhan looking down on women?"

Zhan Fei gave her a sideways glance, but didn't speak.

Shi Fuxin curled her lips, then smiled again, and tilted her head to look at Zhan Fei: "Other girls are naturally not allowed to come and go in and out of the Zhan Mansion at will, but I can."

Zhanfei was amused, and pointed at Shi Fuxin with his finger: "I saw it the day Hongyanxiao opened, you girl has a thick skin, you can come in and out of my mansion at will, you are ashamed to say that."

Shi Fuxin also smiled, with deep dimples, a very sweet and happy smile: "Of course I am sorry, you are my senior brother, and I am your junior sister, and my senior brother and even my apprentice have accepted me. As a junior sister, I , wouldn’t it be too outlandish if you need to pass it on when you come to Senior Brother’s mansion?”

Zhan Fei was shocked by Shi Fuxin's words, pointed at Shi Fuxin and stammered, "What are you talking about? What? Brothers and sisters?"

Shi Fuxin walked out of the living room with a smile, came to Zhan Fei with a blessing: "Wuya met senior brother." She raised her eyes and smiled, "Senior brother, please take care of junior sister in the future."

Zhanfei seemed to be stepped on his tail, and took several steps back one after another. Because he was too surprised, his face was so stiff that he couldn't speak, and he only stared at Shi Fuxin with his eyes wide open.

Shi Fuxin still smiled slightly: "Eldest senior brother, second senior brother told me a lot about you, I wanted to see you a long time ago, now that I see you, I'm really happy."

"Eldest brother, are you also very happy to see me, junior sister?"

Zhanfei felt that he needed to take it easy, walked into the living room and drank a whole bowl of tea to calm down, looked at Shi Fuxin: "Are you really the old man's new apprentice, my little junior sister?"

Shi Fuxin smiled and nodded: "It's true!"

Zhan Fei looked disbelieving, and shook his head: "Impossible, if you are really a junior sister, how old were you when you were apprenticed?"

Shi Fuxin counted with her fingers: "I happened to be eight years old when I became a teacher."

Zhan Fei looked unacceptable: "How is it possible?!"

Shi Fuxin was puzzled: "Why is it impossible?"

Zhan Fei: "The old man wrote to me and told me that the reason why he accepted another apprentice is because the little junior sister has good medical skills and can expand Tianchi medical skills. You are an eight-year-old child, even if you know some medical skills, how much can you know? "

Shi Fuxin put her arms around her chest, raised her head and said with a haughty expression: "Brother, don't you know that there are child prodigies in this world?"

Zhan Fei looked at her, still in disbelief.

Shi Fuxin saw her, and because she was worried about her brother, she didn't want to continue to argue with him, so she handed him the letter written by the old man Tianchi when she left Northwest, asking Zhanfei to take care of her.

"Eldest brother, I am really your little junior sister."

"With a cute and smart little junior sister like me, just have fun."

Zhan Fei quickly read the letter, even though he couldn't accept having such a young junior sister, he still believed it rationally.

Shi Fuxin pointed to the letter: "Eldest senior brother, Master has just told you to take good care of me. I am in trouble right now, so you have to help me."

Zhanfei cast a sideways glance at Shi Fuxin, and angrily refused directly: "You are so capable, why do you need me to help you?"

Shi Fuxin hurriedly walked in front of him, faced him and said: "I'm not capable anymore, she is just a weak woman who can't carry her shoulders or hands, not like a senior brother who is highly valued by the emperor."

Zhan Fei snorted: "You can't bear it yet? You gave the eldest prince a piece of Shennongtang's guardian decree, do you know how much trouble you have caused me?"

"Now the emperor's princes all think that I am on the side of the eldest prince."

Shi Fuxin pouted her neck and said: "The eldest prince is the apprentice you accepted for me. He is married. I, as a master, can't express it? You can't blame me for this. If you don't accept an apprentice for me, there will be no future. thing."

Zhanfei was so angry that his beard flew wildly: "Is this my fault?"

Shi Fuxin nodded in affirmation: "Yes, it's your fault."

Zhan Fei's hands were really itchy, if he had used all kinds of poisons against the rough-skinned and thick-skinned Second Junior Brother, but seeing this little girl in front of him who could be his granddaughter, he had a headache.

He has no experience with cute little girls!

Shi Fuxin looked at Zhan Fei with some sadness: "Senior brother, do you not like me? But, the second senior brother clearly said that I am very cute, he loves me very much, taught me lightness kung fu, and took me all over the sky mountain run."

"When I left Northwest, the second senior brother told me, he said that senior brother, you will love me and protect me like him."

Seeing Shi Fuxin like this, Zhan Fei covered his head with his hand and didn't want to speak anymore.

What did the old man do? Even if you want to take an apprentice, don't take such a young one!

See, say a few words, as if he was bullying her.

What made him even more tired was that he knew she was faking it.

Zhanfei sat helplessly, seeing that Shi Fuxin seemed to want to give him a scene where he was about to cry, he immediately shivered: "Tell me, what do you want me to do?"

Shi Fuxin immediately beamed with joy: "Senior brother, my brother has been imprisoned by the emperor, can you help me save him?"

When Zhan Fei heard this, his complexion turned bad again: "Who do you think I am? How could the emperor, who is the only one I respect, listen to me?"

Shi Fuxin was silent: "My brother will not provoke Zeng Meiren impulsively, he was framed by Zeng Meiren."

Zhanfei was noncommittal and did not speak.

Shi Fuxin looked at him: "Eldest brother, the dragon heir in Zeng Meiren's belly is full-term, and it won't die so easily. There must be another reason for the death of the little prince, right?"

Zhanfei glanced at her, but still didn't speak, it was a tacit consent.

Shi Fuxin continued: "Eldest brother, I must save my brother, but the information we know is too one-sided, even if we want to do something, there is nothing we can do."

"Eldest brother, you are a person trusted by the emperor, and you were by the emperor's side when the incident happened. Do you know something that we don't?"

Zhan Fei thought that every time he entered the palace to face the saint, Shi Dingxuan and Shi Dinghao would warmly nod and greet him when they saw him. Before, he thought it was the brothers trying to curry favor with him, but now that he thought about it, it was probably because of the girl in front of him.

"Your brother is not wronged."

"Injustice, because the death of the little prince is related to the battle in the harem."

"No injustice, one is because of the festival between you and the Zeng family, two, your brother's chess piece was chosen by the emperor himself, this is a danger and an opportunity for your brother."

After hearing this, Shi Fuxin's eyes sparkled, and she looked at Zhan Fei: "Is Zeng Meiren's premature birth and the death of the little prince arranged by the emperor?"

Zhan Fei: "I don't know if it was the emperor's arrangement, but even if it wasn't, the emperor would stand by and watch from the sidelines, and even contributed to the flames."

Shi Fuxin narrowed her eyes: "Ignoring the life and death of a prince, the emperor has a big plan." She raised her eyes and looked at Zhan Fei, "Who does the emperor want to take advantage of the death of the little prince to deal with?"

Zhanfei looked at Shi Fuxin, this little junior sister is very smart, she can understand everything.

Seeing that Zhan Fei didn't speak, Shi Fuxin stepped forward to flatter her and said, "Brother, our family is helpless in the capital, and we don't even know anything about the palace, you have to help me."

Zhan Fei snorted, but he still said: "It's easy to distinguish things in the palace after sorting them out."

"The biggest one in the palace must be the emperor. As for the emperor, he pays attention to the balance of all parties."

"After that, there will be the Queen's Party headed by the Queen Mother and Queen."

"In order to check and balance the power of the Wei family in the previous court and harem, the emperor supported the Liu family. In the palace, there was Concubine Liu Gui, who made things difficult for the queen. Outside the palace, the Liu family also always compared with the Wei family."

"It's a pity that Concubine Liu Gui and the Liu family are somewhat useless. They can't help the emperor suppress the Wei family well, so the emperor sometimes has to end the game himself."

"The last one is the Empress Dowager, but the Empress Dowager has been out of the world for many years."

"As for other people, they all depend on these people to live."

After hearing Zhan Fei's analysis, Shi Fuxin understood: "So, this time, the emperor went after the empress dowager and queen in the palace?"

Zhanfei didn't respond.

Shi Fuxin frowned: "Then what will happen to my brother in the end?"

Zhan Fei: "It's definitely inevitable that you will be punished, but your life can still be saved."

Shi Fuxin put her heart down a little bit, knowing that Zhan Fei could reveal so much to her is already the ultimate, so she didn't ask any more questions, and sincerely gave her a blessing: "Thank you, big brother."

Zhan Fei waved his hands, and said with a stinky face: "I can tell you, you are not allowed to reveal our identities in front of outsiders."

Shi Fuxin didn't want to reveal it either, but she still asked curiously, "Why?"

Zhan Fei snorted: "You are too capable of causing trouble!"

Shi Fuxin showed disapproval: "I'm actually quite well-behaved."

Zhan Fei gave two "hehe" sounds: "Then what happened to Shennongtang?"

Shi Fuxin rolled her eyes: "The hall master of Shennong Hall and I are good friends and confidants."

Zhan Fei looked at her: "Really?"

Shi Fuxin nodded her head, she is her own friend and confidant, there is nothing wrong with her words.
