Getting Rich from Legend of Zhen Huan

Chapter 130 Apricot Forest

In a blink of an eye, it was time for Aunt Jiang to enter the palace to accompany Yixiu.

Fu Jin used the excuse that Aunt Jiang didn't know the palace rules and asked Rou Ze to accompany Aunt Jiang.

These words were passed on to Concubine Jiang, who was packing up the things for Yixiu. She sent away the maid who delivered the message and sighed worriedly. Mrs. Fu allowed the eldest daughter to enter the palace, and she was afraid that she had bad intentions.

But Yixiu also brought a message, telling Aunt Jiang to just go into the palace without worry and not to worry about the rest, as she would take care of it.

Aunt Jiang got on the carriage to the palace with doubt. The one in front was the one that Rouze was riding in.

According to the rules, Rouze and Aunt Jiang had to go to pay their respects to Concubine De first. Today, Rouze was not accompanied by her usual maid, but by Nanny Zhou, who was supposed to be enjoying retirement at home. This wet nurse of the concubine had not appeared in public for many years. Aunt Jiang looked at Rouze and Nanny Zhou and felt a sense of trepidation.

Rouze gave Aunt Jiang a stiff smile and said softly, "Aunt Jiang, please go find Yixiu first. I want to talk to my aunt for a while."

Rouze's words were still the same as before, but when Aunt Jiang saw the smile that did not reach Rouze's eyes, she shuddered with fear and responded hastily. Then Aunt Jiang was taken away by Jianqiu.

Jianqiu was already very familiar with the roads in the palace, and the roads she took with Aunt Jiang were those with few people but not remote.

Aunt Jiang looked at Jianqiu, who was acting so well, and expressed her concerns, "Jianqiu, Miss..."

Jianqiu replied calmly, "Don't worry, Auntie. Everything is under Fu Jin's control. Fu Jin, the birth is only two months away. We maids have no experience. Fortunately, Auntie is here, and we have a backbone."

Jianqiu changed the subject skillfully. When Aunt Jiang heard about her daughter, she could no longer think of Rouze. She asked with concern, "Yi... How did Concubine Yi rest at night? At this time, I'm afraid she didn't sleep well at night."

Jianqiu nodded and said, "That's right. Concubine Fu Jin always sweats at night and wants to change clothes. If it were just these things, it wouldn't be a big deal, but once she gets up, Concubine Fu Jin can't sleep. She's pregnant and can't sleep well at night. How can she bear it?"

Aunt Jiang said anxiously, "This child is like me. I was like this at the time, unable to sleep at night and unable to wake up during the day. There is no other good way to deal with this. I can only make up for the sleep during the day. But I have to trouble you to remember the time and not let the concubine sleep too long, otherwise she will be unable to sleep at night."

Jianqiu smiled and said, "As long as it is good for Madam Fu, there is no need for us servants to work hard."

Jianqiu was talking with Aunt Jiang as they walked towards the Fourth Prince's Mansion.

Rouze was washing and changing clothes in Yonghe Palace. This matter had to be kept secret, so only Rouze and Nanny Zhou could do it. Nanny Zhou was old and her movements were not agile, but fortunately Rouze had been studying makeup for many years and could handle it.

Rouze looked at herself in the mirror. She was wearing an elegant dress and delicate makeup, but she was not as lively as before. She was about to touch her cheek when Nanny Zhou reminded her, "Princess, be careful with your makeup."

Rouze put down her hand unnaturally and asked, "Is it time?"

Madam Zhou estimated the time and replied, "It will take a while. The Fourth Prince will probably go this way."

After waiting for a while, a strange little palace maid knocked on the door and took Rouze to an apricot blossom forest.

Rouze chose a place with beautiful scenery and found the right time to start her dance.

The Fourth Prince was hurrying on his way with a frown on his brow. He didn't say anything when Concubine De asked him to. The eunuch leading the way was not taking the usual route, but Su Peisheng followed him. Could there really be a trap?

The Fourth Prince gave Su Peisheng a look without any expression. Su Peisheng shuddered, knowing that something was wrong, and remained alert at all times.

The eunuch led the Fourth Prince to the apricot forest. It was the season when the apricot blossoms were in full bloom. From a distance, it looked like a white ocean. When the breeze blew, the apricot blossoms fell one after another, like smoke and mist, like clouds and rosy clouds, which was very beautiful.

The Fourth Prince and Su Peisheng were so enchanted by the beauty of the fluttering apricot blossoms that they did not notice that the young eunuch had quietly slipped away.

At this time, a beautiful singing voice came from the apricot forest, getting closer and closer. The Fourth Prince couldn't help but step forward to find the source of the singing.

When he walked into the apricot blossom forest, he saw a graceful figure dancing lightly. Every movement of the dancer was like a bird flying in the sky. The Fourth Prince suspected that he had mistakenly entered the fairyland, otherwise how could he see the dance of fairies in the sky.

Rouze was concentrating on dancing. Only when she was dancing could she feel light and happy.

After the dance ended, the Fourth Prince stepped forward and wanted to see the fairy's true face.

Rouze was a little panicked and greeted the Fourth Prince, "Greetings to the Fourth Prince."

Only then did the Fourth Prince realize that the person dancing was Rouze. The snow-white apricot petals fell on Rouze's snow-white neck, making the Fourth Prince unable to tell which one was whiter.

Why Rouze? This is a trap that can be seen through at a glance, but the most precious gift is placed in the trap, who can not pick it?

The Fourth Prince still couldn't maintain his indifference in front of Rouze, "Why is the eldest princess here?"

Rouze replied with the words that Madam Zhou had taught her long ago: "I originally wanted to go find Yixiu, but on the way I passed by this apricot forest, and I was tempted to do something, so I disturbed the Fourth Master. Please punish me."

The carefully dressed beauty was trembling slightly like a deer, and the gorgeous clothes on her body were like the gorgeous packaging of a gift box, waiting to be opened.

The Fourth Prince sighed again. Why did she have to be the legitimate daughter of the Ulanara family? Otherwise, Rouze would have entered the Fourth Prince’s mansion long ago.

This sigh increased Rouze's psychological pressure. She raised her head slightly and asked, "Please punish me, Fourth Prince."

To the Fourth Prince, this did not seem like a confession but more like an invitation.

With such a beauty, even Shu Fei, the most beautiful woman in the palace, is inferior to her. The Fourth Prince's inner desires are roaring. When awake, I want to hold power in the world, and when drunk, I want to sleep on the lap of a beauty. My goal is to be the emperor. Shouldn't the most beautiful woman in the world belong to me?

But the Fourth Prince's reason tells him, which is more important, power or beauty? Are you qualified to have both now?

Just like that, the Fourth Prince suppressed his greed and ordered Su Peisheng: "Su Peisheng, take the eldest princess to my mother, send her back to Ulanala Mansion, and explain today's situation to Fei Yanggu."

When Su Peisheng saw that it was Rouze, he felt something was wrong. The Ulanala Mansion had not given up yet!

The Fourth Prince was firm in his attitude, so Su Peisheng followed his orders, "Big Princess, please come in!"

When Rouze heard the Fourth Prince say that he would explain the situation to Fei Yanggu, her face turned pale and she wanted to plead with the Fourth Prince, but he was so scared of him that she could only hesitantly follow Su Peisheng.
