Getting Rich from Legend of Zhen Huan

The Fourth Prince stood there motionless like a pillar. Yixiu's eyes sparkled with tears as she said, "I am not feeling well and cannot serve you. Please go somewhere else and rest!"

The Fourth Prince was awakened by Yixiu's voice. He said dissatisfiedly, "In Xiaoyi's eyes, am I a lustful person?"

Yixiu wiped away her tears and advised: "It doesn't matter what grievances Xiaoyi has suffered, but you must not hurt the relationship between mother and son because of this, otherwise, how can Xiaoyi face mother again?"

The Fourth Prince caressed Yixiu's face lovingly, "Little Yixiu is always so submissive, how can I not love her?"

Yixiu looked at the Fourth Prince fondly, "As long as you are well, nothing can be considered a grievance."

The Fourth Prince seemed to be touched by this and said sadly, "Mother is dissatisfied with me as her son, so she is taking her anger out on Xiaoyi."

Yixiu held the Fourth Prince's hand tightly and said firmly, "No, you are my mother's child after ten months of pregnancy. How could my mother be dissatisfied with you? It was Xiaoyi who did something wrong, which made my mother hate you. Now I am making you sad. Xiaoyi is really wrong."

The fourth prince seemed to have returned to his childhood, back to the time when Empress Xiaoyiren was pregnant and he knew he had a biological mother. He went to see his mother secretly and heard her singing a ballad to his sixth brother, "Go to sleep quickly, so that you can grow up, so that you can draw the bow..." Later, his sixth brother died and his fourteenth brother was born. His mother sang the ballad to his fourteenth brother again, singing it so many times, but she never sang it to herself.

Xiaoyi was right. If my mother really treated me as her own son, she would not be dissatisfied with me. But what if she didn't? The fourth prince had an answer in his heart, and he would punish the people around him to show his dissatisfaction, just like today.

The Fourth Prince murmured, "Am I really your son?"

Liu Youyou was delighted when she heard this. She had been planning for so many days and finally got something. But it was not enough. She had to make the Fourth Prince doubt the choice of the Wuya family.

So Yixiu touched the Fourth Prince's knee and asked, "Master, did you apply the medicine on time today? Is the wound healing?"

The Fourth Prince did not want to show weakness in front of Yixiu anymore, so he endured the discomfort and said, "It's okay, it's just a few flesh wounds, why are you so delicate?"

Yixiu seemed to be inspired and gave the Fourth Prince an idea, "Master, the Fourteenth Prince's knee is probably also hurting. This plaster is also effective. Why don't we give the Fourteenth Prince a portion as well?"

The Fourth Prince understood Yixiu's idea. Since he couldn't get the idea through Concubine De, he would try a roundabout way through the Fourteenth Prince. To be honest, the situation escalated because of the Fourteenth Prince's involvement and the fight with the Fourth Prince. If the delivery of medicine could be used as an opportunity for the brothers to put aside their grudges and laugh it off, Concubine De would not say anything.

The Fourth Prince was silent. His pride would not allow him to bow to the Fourteenth Prince. Originally, Yinzhen had been indiscriminate and wanted to beat him. He was not held accountable for beating people indiscriminately, and he had to apologize proactively. Isn't this the equivalent of forcing a donkey to drink water? The Fourth Prince was reluctant.

Yixiu pretended not to know and said, "Fourteenth brother calls me sister-in-law, so as his sister-in-law, I should at least care about him!" Then she instructed Jianqiu to deliver the plaster in her name before the curfew.

Seeing that Jianqiu was quick and efficient and was about to go out after packing up some supplements, the Fourth Prince did not say anything to stop her.

Although the Fourth Prince was quite picky about the Fourteenth Prince, they were brothers from the same father and mother after all, and the Fourth Prince would only scold those who were his closest relatives, such as persuading the Eighth Prince to practice calligraphy (the two had a good relationship before the Eighth Prince went to court) and helping the Thirteenth Prince with his homework.

The Fourth Prince still has family expectations for the Fourteenth Prince, and Yixiu knows too well how arrogant and domineering the future general king is. The Fourth Prince thinks that he has given face to the Fourteenth Prince by bowing his head, but the Fourteenth Prince may not think so.

Sure enough, not long after, Jianqiu came back in a disheveled state.

It turned out that when the Fourteenth Prince saw the plasters and supplements, he overturned the tray.

The fourth son and his concubine are birds of a feather, neither of them is a good person. I used to think Yixiu was pretty and kind, but she has only been married for a short time and she has already instigated the fourth son to rob his mother's family. The fourth son, this idiot, has been fooled by a woman and doesn't even recognize his mother!

When the Fourth Prince saw the plaster stains on Jianqiu's clothes, he knew what the Fourteenth Prince had done. He was so angry that his chest heaved rapidly. Was this Fourteenth Prince also like her mother, who had never considered him a relative?

Yixiu calmed the Fourth Prince down and said, "Master, the Fourteenth Prince is just childish. How can he understand human relationships? Don't get angry. If you hurt yourself, won't your loved ones be sad and your enemies be happy?"

The Fourth Prince said dejectedly, "Yes. If I get so angry that I become sick, I wonder who will secretly be happy about it?"

After drinking a bowl of herbal tea, the Fourth Prince calmed down and went to sleep with Yixiu in his arms. However, the Fourth Prince just closed his eyes but had no desire to sleep.

He repeatedly reviewed the matter. He was still young and had no intention of killing them all. Why did the Wuya family react so violently? Could it be that there was something fishy going on here that they couldn't let anyone know about?

After thinking it over, the Fourth Prince had an idea. He remembered the news he had heard in the capital when he refused to arrange positions for the people of the Uya family. The daughters of the bondservant families were all concubines in the palace, and the slaves had become masters. Relying on their status as princes and princesses, they accepted bribes and engaged in corruption.

Over the years, the salary alone was not enough for Concubine De to manage the palace. The things awarded by Emperor Kangxi were all imperial gifts and could not be converted into cash. Where did the money for paving the way come from? Moreover, people are greedy, and the Fourth Prince did not believe that the Uya family only took the money to pave the way for Concubine De. The plaques and stone lions at the door, which one is not valuable?

The Fourth Prince couldn't help but wonder how many evil things the Uya family had done in his name. So the question is, did Concubine De know? Did she know that her family was messing around in the name of her eldest son? Did she know that if the truth came out one day, the Fourth Prince would be implicated? In other words, Concubine De hoped that the Fourth Prince would have a stain on him.

Why? The Fourth Prince was at a loss.

He was unwilling to think further, fearing that he would get an answer that he could not accept. The Fourth Prince's heart said that he should stop analyzing, but his brain kept working.

Once the Fourth Prince has a stain and loses his qualification as an heir, then for the sake of future survival, he must support a brother as a guarantee of future life. Is there anyone more worthy of choice than a brother with the same father and mother? With the support of the power accumulated by the Fourth Prince, the eldest brother, over the years, the Fourteenth Prince has a good chance of winning.

My brain says I have analyzed everything, but my heart is just saying one thing and doing another. Don’t you want to know? Ha!

The Fourth Prince was completely sleepless. He stared at the bed curtains with his eyes open until the morning court session.

Su Peisheng came in quietly to wake up the Fourth Prince, but when he opened the curtain, he was shocked by the dark circles under the Fourth Prince's eyes. He wanted to speak, but was stopped by the Fourth Prince's eyes. Yixiu was still sleeping soundly, and the Fourth Prince didn't want to wake her up.

So that day, the Fourth Prince walked around with two big dark circles under his eyes, attracting countless glances from passers-by who wanted to look at him but didn't dare to.
