The favored imperial concubine

Chapter 211

The fourteenth elder brother Yinzhen has been very depressed recently.In fact, ever since Yinzhen saw at the Lantern Festival palace banquet one and a half months ago that his fourth brother had an unusual affection for Concubine Xi, who was favored by Huang Ama, he had a gloomy face all day long, becoming increasingly irritable and irritable. I just feel like I can't see anything.

Although Yinzhen has been very close to Concubine De since childhood, apart from extremely secretive private matters, there are very few secrets that he cannot be honest with Concubine De.However, after learning that Yinzhen was very likely to have some unusual thoughts about Concubine Xi, Yinzhen did not immediately inform Concubine De of the matter.

Yinzhen didn't intend to hide this matter from Concubine De, but felt that the matter was of great importance, and he had to check it out before making a conclusion, so as to avoid making a false alarm out of nothing.However, how to verify this matter has become another difficult problem for Yinzhen.

Yinzhen is well aware of his fourth brother's temper, if he hastily went to ask his fourth brother about this matter, he would definitely make his fourth brother furious. Rebuke the lesson.However, this matter cannot be left alone.It would be fine if this happened to other brothers, but it was the fourth brother, a compatriot from the same mother who grew up with him.In any case, it is impossible for Yinzhen to watch the fourth brother make a big mistake because of a mistake.

Yinzhen, who always likes to be straightforward, has encountered difficulties this time. He kept this matter in his heart and was bored alone for more than a month, and he never thought of any good solution.

Yinzhen's brother-in-law Wanyan Hairui saw that he was in a bad mood, so he found an excuse to ask him out, intending to find some interesting things to help him relax.However, no matter whether he went to drink at the most famous restaurant in the capital, or went to Hongxiuzhao to listen to the lady in charge playing the piano and singing, Yinzhen still had a gloomy face all day long, frowning tightly, with a preoccupied appearance.

Seeing Yinzhen's gloomy appearance, Hai Rui was not used to it, and felt that the cheerful and forthright fourteenth elder brother was about to turn into the cold-faced and moody fourth elder brother.

"Master Fourteen, what's on your mind lately that it's embarrassing you so much? In order to help Master Fourteen resolve his worries, I have even accompanied Master Fourteen to the most famous Wenrou Township in the capital. If my sister Knowing this, I'm afraid my ears will suffer again! This oiran is a rare beauty from the south of the Yangtze River, and her piano and art voice are quite outstanding. It's a pity that people sang heartily for a long time, but the Fourteenth Master listened absent-mindedly... "

Because Yinzhen was in an unhappy mood at this time, instead of finding Wu Nong's soft words pleasant to the ear, he felt bored instead.Yinzhen casually threw down two banknotes, frowned and walked out of the red sleeve move.

Hai Rui remembered his sister's instructions, put down his wine glass quickly, and hurriedly chased him out.Hai Rui chased after the red sleeve trick, looked around, and saw Yinzhen standing with his hands behind his back, looking at a woman on the side of the road who sold her body to bury her father in a silent trance.

Hai Rui frowned, narrowed his eyes slightly and carefully looked at the woman who sold her body to bury her father.She has willow eyebrows and almond eyes, her skin is whiter than snow, although her facial features can only be called delicate, there is a bit of Xiaojia Biyu's unique beauty between her eyebrows and eyes.Although the woman was dressed in filial piety at this time, she was crying like pear blossoms and raining, so pitiful, it attracted passers-by to stop one after another.

Hai Rui was secretly startled, and secretly asked if Elder Fourteen just wanted to play with this woman and play casually, but if Elder Fourteen insisted on taking this woman back to the palace, it's up to my sister not to reveal it. own skin!
Hai Rui pondered his words in his mind, and sighed with a half-smile: "Oh! It costs 50 taels of silver! I didn't know that buying a coffin in the capital is so expensive now! With the price of a girl, if it is not a high-ranking official, I'm afraid that even if you want to help the girl bury her father, you will be powerless!"

A flash of panic flashed in the woman's eyes, and a layer of mist filled her eyes. She explained aggrievedly: "The little girl's ancestral home is Suzhou, so she plans to raise some money to send her father back to his hometown for burial!"

As the woman said, she looked at Yinzhen with aggrieved eyes, like a frightened little white rabbit.

Hai Rui saw the appearance of this woman who loves the rich and powerful and recognized Yinzhen's appearance, and he almost vomited blood in his heart, thinking that this woman's eyes are hesitant, and she is greedy for wealth and honor. A lovely woman, but she hates women who are hypocritical and scheming.From this point of view, the fourteenth master should not like this woman.

Just when Hai Rui felt relieved, he saw Yinzhen narrowed his eyes slightly, carefully sizing up the woman who sold her body to bury her father for a moment, then suddenly took out a bank note from her bosom and handed it to the woman, with an inaudible tone Joyful and angry, "Use this money to arrange your father's funeral. Your man, I bought it."

The woman immediately burst into tears, and kowtowed to Yinzhen in gratitude: "Thank you, Ruxi! Ruxi can't repay you for your great kindness. From now on, Ruxi is willing to stay by your side, for Slave is your servant, serve you wholeheartedly!"

Hai Rui felt anxious, and said worriedly: "Master Fourteen, this girl...is still in the midst of filial piety, I'm afraid it's not suitable for her to enter the mansion..."

Seeing that Hai Rui was anxious like a monkey scratching his head, Yinzhen couldn't help but smiled and patted Hai Rui's shoulder, and replied embarrassingly to Fu Jin Wanyan: "Even if this girl is out of filial piety, with this daughter With her status, she is not even qualified to be a maid in the mansion, and the Lord will not bring her back to the mansion to embarrass your sister."

Seeing Yinzhen's frank and firm words, Hai Rui even showed a trace of disgust towards the woman between his brows, even though he was a little relieved, he couldn't figure out what Yinzhen was thinking.

Ruxi heard that Yinzhen didn't want to take her into the mansion, and said that she was not even qualified to be a maid in the mansion, so she couldn't help but feel very anxious, worried that Yinzhen would abandon her and let her live the poor and hard life again.However, to Ruxi's surprise, Yinzhen sent someone to place her in a house in the west of the capital, and sent a maid and a nanny to take care of her.
