Getting Rich from Legend of Zhen Huan
Chapter 237 Qi Yuebin Compromises
With a goal in mind, Su Peisheng quickly prepared what the Fourth Prince needed.
The Fourth Prince held the life-threatening thing for the Qi family in his hand, but on the surface he acted as usual, except that he went to Wangshu Pavilion more often. Qi Yuebin didn't think too much about it, but now that Shi Lan could not sleep with him, Qi Yuebin had to seize the opportunity.
As he came to Wangshu Pavilion more often, the Fourth Prince told Qi Yuebin about some of his worries, such as the restless Eighth Prince of the previous dynasty, the eager Fourteenth Prince, and the rebellious Nian Gengyao.
Another day, the Fourth Prince came to Wangshu Pavilion with a gloomy face and complained to Qi Yuebin, "Mother urged me to help Fourteenth Brother find an opportunity in the army. He follows Eighth Brother all day long. How can he remember me, his biological brother? If I don't go and make others dislike me, it will be my fault."
Qi Yuebin handed the Fourth Prince a cup of hot tea with concern, "Even if the prince is angry, you can't walk outside without a hat. The weather is not warm yet, be careful not to hurt yourself."
The Fourth Prince took the hot tea, drank a few sips, and the coldness in his body dissipated. He was moved and pulled Qi Yuebin and said, "Yuebin is virtuous."
Qi Yuebin relied on the Fourth Prince, and her love for the man took over, making her forget her previous caution. She actually said to the Fourth Prince, "The Virtuous Concubine loves the youngest son, and Your Highness is caught in the middle, and you are in a dilemma. Why not just follow the Virtuous Concubine's wishes, and it will also show Your Highness' love for his brothers."
The Fourth Prince was a little unhappy, "Could it be that Yue Bin also thinks that Master is being unreasonable?"
Qi Yuebin regretted that he had said that, but couldn't resist the opportunity to test the Fourth Prince's feelings, "Your Majesty is naturally the best. Yuebin thinks that this is a good opportunity to test the Emperor's feelings."
Kangxi couldn't even spend too much time reading memorials now, and could only let Honghui and Hongxi read them for him. Everyone could see that Kangxi's body couldn't last for a few more years. Although Kangxi didn't agree to appoint a crown prince, he must have a limit in his mind. He would never let a promising prince go to the battlefield. After all, swords are silent, and if he is disabled, wouldn't it be a waste of good candidates?
Therefore, it might not be a bad thing if Kangxi agreed to let the Fourteenth Prince lead the troops to fight.
The Fourth Prince understood Qi Yuebin's intention and said to him in surprise, "I only knew that Yuebin was meticulous, but I didn't know that Yuebin had the ability to see the big picture from the small details."
Qi Yuebin felt more relaxed when he saw that the Fourth Prince had no intention of blaming him for discussing political affairs. He said embarrassedly, "It was just Yuebin's random thoughts. I don't deserve such praise from the prince."
Since then, Qi Yuebin has gradually relaxed his restraint and thought of many useful ways to help the Fourth Prince. However, the more surprised the Fourth Prince looked, the more vigilant he was in his heart. He must not let Qi Yuebin and Nian Shilan become friends. With a brain like Qi Yuebin, Nian Shilan would sooner or later realize that something was wrong.
So, another day, the Fourth Prince came to Wangshu Pavilion in anger, "That Nian Gengyao is really too much! I regard him as my confidant, but he actually flirted with the Fourteenth Prince. He really doesn't know the difference between superiors and subordinates!"
Ever since Qi Yuebin proposed the method of testing the Fourteenth Prince's status in the Emperor's heart, the Fourth Prince began to act. He thought that Kangxi would hesitate, or even refuse to let the Fourteenth Prince leave Beijing. However, Kangxi saw that the Fourteenth Prince was determined and that Concubine De and the Fourth Prince were constantly encouraging him, so he did not object at all and sent the Fourteenth Prince to the Qinghai battlefield.
However, before the Fourth Prince could rejoice that he had lost a competitor, news came from the battlefield that Nian Gengyao and the Fourteenth Prince had hit it off. How could the Fourth Prince not be angry?
Qi Yuebin didn't expect Nian Gengyao to be so bold, but now the Qi family and the Nian family have a close relationship, Qi Yuebin has to speak for Nian Gengyao, "Perhaps General Nian is taking care of the Fourteenth Prince for the sake of the prince."
The Fourth Prince raised his head and looked at Qi Yuebin with deep eyes, "Does Yuebin really think so?"
Qi Yuebin was shocked by this look and didn't know what to say next.
The Fourth Prince said in self-pity, "I think it's because Shilan is pregnant. As long as Shilan gives birth to a little prince, why would Nian Gengyao care about my life or death?"
Qi Yuebin didn't even dare to speak.
The Fourth Prince, however, hugged Qi Yuebin and whispered in his ear like a venomous snake, "Yuebin, can you bear to let me fall into such a pitiful situation?"
Qi Yuebin trembled.
The Fourth Prince was unwilling to stop, he continued, "Yuebin, you like me the most, right?"
Qi Yuebin's face turned pale. She suddenly understood the Fourth Prince's intentions these days. However, her jealousy towards Nian Shilan, her love for the Fourth Prince, and her sisterly love for Nian Shilan were tearing Qi Yuebin's heart apart.
The Fourth Prince sighed helplessly, "Yuebin, you don't know what I have stopped for you?" As he spoke, the Fourth Prince took out a stack of papers and showed them to Qi Yuebin.
Qi Yuebin took it with trembling hands, read only the first line, and then collapsed in the Fourth Prince's arms. She flipped the paper quickly and asked the Fourth Prince in disbelief, "How dare they do that?" The Qi family had never told Qi Yuebin.
The Fourth Prince touched Qi Yuebin's cheek lovingly, "I also want to know, how dare the Qi family do this?"
Qi Yuebin closed her eyes. With such a handle on her, should she be thankful that the Fourth Prince was still willing to use gentle means to induce her to do something?
The Fourth Prince took away the wrinkled paper that Qi Yuebin had grasped and consoled him, "Don't worry, Yuebin. You and I are of one mind and one strength. How could I possibly push the Qi family out?"
We are of one mind and one strength! Qi Yuebin took the Fourth Prince's hand, opened her eyes and said admiringly, "I am willing to share your worries."
The Fourth Prince was whispering to Qi Yuebin, "Yuebin is indeed my sweetheart."
On the second day, Qi Yuebin pretended to sleep and did not serve the Fourth Prince. Jixiang sent the Fourth Prince away and wanted to go into the room to see Qi Yuebin, "Master, are you awake? The prince just left."
Qi Yuebin looked at Jixiang with empty eyes, "I want to take a bath."
Jixiang was a little worried, but he still prepared hot water for Qi Yuebin.
Qi Yuebin immersed herself in the hot water, and only then did she feel her heart warm up from the extreme coldness of last night. She felt that she had been blind in the past, thinking that the Fourth Prince was a person worthy of entrusting her life to. But now it was too late to regret, and for the sake of the Qi family, she could only apologize to Nian Shilan.
Perhaps because he had been soaking in the tub for too long, Qi Yuebin felt nauseous when he stood up from the tub and couldn't help but dry heave.
Jixiang said with some surprise, "Master, should we ask a doctor to take a look?" Maybe she is pregnant!
Qi Yuebin thought that she felt sick because she was thinking about the Fourth Prince, but she couldn't tell Jixiang the truth, so she could only perfunctorily say, "She just stayed in the hot water for too long. Why bother asking the doctor to make a wasted trip? Let's check her pulse in a few days." After so long without any news, Qi Yuebin no longer held out hope of getting pregnant.
