The Virtuous Concubine

Many conspiracy theories suddenly popped up in the Fourth Prince’s mind.

Seeing him like this, Malu said, "Don't overthink it. This may really be just an accident."

The Fourth Prince didn't believe it. "Mother, how can there be so many accidents in this palace? I always feel that this matter is not simple. But if someone really wants to frame me, I will definitely not sit idly by."

Malu also laughed when he heard him speak in such an air of superiority: "How can you control a tiny person? Whose knee are you going to hit?"

The fourth prince looked stubborn and said, "Mother, please don't underestimate your son!"

Malu nodded and touched his big, shiny forehead: "Okay, okay, I got it. You should also listen to me and tell me the whole story."

As he spoke, Malu told her that the prince had suddenly come to Yonghe Palace by himself, and that she felt that the prince was in a very bad mood. The two chatted for a few words, and the prince became even more depressed, so he told her clearly about his illness.

As for the specific details, Malu naturally didn't go into detail. She knew that her son was narrow-minded.

If he heard this, he would definitely feel that the prince had surpassed him again and would be unhappy.

Jingyi and Malu talked about this twice in private, and Malu has paid more attention to such matters since then.

He not only wants love, but also preference. If something is given to him, it can only be given to him. If it is given to others, then his must be the most special.

After hearing this, the Fourth Prince, with his understanding of the Crown Prince over the years, roughly understood: "Mother, the Crown Prince's Second Brother is too petty. The most recent incident in the palace was the birth of the Tenth Brother, and he was actually unhappy about this matter. He gets sick wherever he goes, and he chose to come to our Yonghe Palace. He has no good intentions!"

Malu scolded, "Don't talk nonsense. The prince might just be passing by and came in to take a look."

The Fourth Prince snorted coldly: "Mother, you are too kind-hearted. Everyone in this palace has ulterior motives."

Malu quickly covered his mouth and said, "Don't say that. Be careful of what you say."

The Fourth Prince broke free and said, "Mother, do you think what my son said makes sense?"

Malu shook his head helplessly and said, "You are too impatient. Don't be like this in front of your royal father."

As she spoke, she nodded. In her heart, she agreed with the Fourth Prince's analysis, which seemed like a complaint but was actually accurate.

"Actually... what you said makes sense. The Crown Prince must have a sense of crisis because of the Tenth Prince's prominent family background. After all, he has health problems now, so he is naturally more afraid."

The Fourth Prince nodded and said, "I understand, my son. I just hope that the Emperor will not implicate you because of the Crown Prince's affairs."

Malu was not afraid of this. After all, this matter really had nothing to do with her. If Kangxi took his anger out on her, she could just find Rong Ruo and Rong Ji to pass the time.

He has three thousand beauties in his harem, and he can hug them in Yonghe Palace. Who is afraid of him?

She is steady.

But it's naturally a good thing that her son cares about her.

She tapped the Fourth Prince's head with a smile on her face and said, "My dear son, I am not afraid of this, but I am worried that you will be lonely in Prince's residence."

Just as the Fourth Prince was about to explain that he was not alone, Malu waved for Bai Xia to come in.

The dog has snow-white fur and black eyes, which makes it very cute, and a bit like a fox! But it is round in shape, with plenty of hair and bones, and is not an ordinary fox dog.

The fourth prince's eyes lit up. What a good dog! He couldn't help but lean over to look at the dog.

This dog is not afraid of people at all, let alone scary. The dog's little face seems to be smiling, and its furry tail is curled behind it, like a big one, swaying from side to side in Bai Xia's arms, which is very cute.

Ah——Malu also found it so cute that she wanted to scream.

This is the modern Samoyed. Prince, you are so awesome!

The prince was probably grateful, and after taking the sachet, he decided to give her something. She also had rare jewelry and antiques, and she didn't dare to use the prince's - each one was over the limit!

Either only the emperor can use them, or only the empress dowager can use them. Although she was the mistress of a palace, she dared not put them in the palace. She could only shed tears of gratitude and put them all in the bottom of the box.

This is also the reason why the prince complained to Kangxi about Malu last time, saying that he took his things but didn't use them.

But the prince was still unhappy, thinking that he had not really satisfied Malu, so he asked her directly what she wanted.

Malu thought about it and asked for a kind of dog from the Rakshasa Kingdom - round, tall, friendly to people and able to pull sleds.

For Soetu, as the person mainly responsible for the Yaxica negotiations and the leader of the prince's party, it was naturally easy for him to help the prince find such a dog.

But no one expected that Soetu would act so quickly. While he was still at the border, he had already rushed over a pair of big dogs and their three puppies.

The big dog stayed in the kennel of the Imperial Household Department for breeding. The smartest and most obedient of the three was sent to Yonghe Palace the next day after it was trained.

Today, the Fourth Prince happened to come, so Malu decided to give him one.

There are two more. After they are trained, we will have one boy and one girl, twins.

The moment the Fourth Prince saw the dog, there was indeed a flash of surprise and love in his eyes.

However, the next moment, he subconsciously took a step back with a look of resistance on his face.

Seeing this, Malu asked in confusion, "Son, don't you like it?"

The Fourth Prince is in a very complicated mood now and is obviously very hesitant.

This dog is so cute!

But he still made up his mind, gritted his teeth and said, "Mother, I can't have you."

Malu was even more puzzled: "Why is this?"

In his previous life, the Fourth Prince also had a dog when he was a child. The dog was well-behaved and obedient, and was the Fourth Prince’s treasure.

But the Ninth and Tenth Princes were particularly naughty and deliberately harmed it. . . The Fourth Prince had a big quarrel with the Ninth and Tenth Princes, and since then, they have been feuding with each other.

The Fourth Prince hated himself very much for not being able to protect it at that time. Since then, the Fourth Prince did not keep a dog for a long time.

It was not until I became a prince that I had good fortune and blessings...

Now I still rely on my mother. When I was born, I was given the title of Viscount Bei. Moreover, the ninth child! The tenth child! They are all born!

There was no way he would raise a dog at this time and let it be harmed by these two creatures who were worse than pigs and dogs.

So he reluctantly rejected his mother.

Seeing that the Fourth Prince had a troubled expression and said nothing, Malu was also a little confused.

Something is wrong. The Fourth Prince loved dogs a lot in history, right? She took the cute snow-white Samoyed from Bai Xia's arms, stroked it twice, and cried in her heart - it was so cute.

If my son really doesn't want it, then... as a mother, I won't be polite!

However, Malu was very responsible and gave the Fourth Prince one last chance. She put her hands under the puppy's armpits, handed it to the Fourth Prince, and waved it in front of him temptingly: "Don't be afraid. Come, touch it. It's very well behaved. Mother wants you to give it a name and take it back to the Prince's residence."

The Fourth Prince looked at the puppy in Malu's hand, his eyes full of desire and struggle. He turned his head away with difficulty and said, "Mother, my son really can't keep it. Last time, the eldest prince... the eldest prince snatched my camping bag. If I take it back, what if he snatches my dog ​​away again?"
