I just want to rob you of your luck

Butler Ma felt uncomfortable under Zhou Yichen's gaze. Could it be that His Highness already knew that his son had entered the military camp through the Hu family's connections?

"Yes, I understand. Your Highness, do you need to take a bath and change clothes? I will arrange it right away."

"No need, it's late, you should go back and rest."

"Yes." Butler Ma watched Zhou Yichen leave, then turned to look at Cuiyun Courtyard. Seeing two guards at the door, he sighed and turned away.

Can’t this prince’s wife just keep quiet? Why does she always get caught when she does something wrong? She is so stupid.

He even regretted letting his son join the Hu family army. Now he could only secretly send a letter to the General's Mansion of the Protectorate, hoping that they could make some preparations in advance.

It was already late at night when Zhou Yichen and Lin Jiuer finished dealing with these things. As soon as they returned to the house, Song Zheng came to ask for a meeting.

Zhou Yichen walked outside and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Your Highness, Steward Ma just quietly went out. I think he went to deliver a letter to the Hu family."

Zhou Yichen snorted coldly: "I know, you should keep an eye on him more in the future. Well, you have worked hard today, go back and have a rest."

Song Zheng stepped back in response, and Zhou Yichen entered the house.

Lin Jiuer looked at Zhou Yichen proudly: "During the time when you were out providing disaster relief, I have already removed all of Hu Yunshao's minions in the mansion, leaving only Chunyu. As for Butler Ma, leave it to you to deal with."

"He has been following Zhou Yixuan for many years. I am afraid that he will find out sooner or later, so this person will be eliminated sooner or later."

The room became quiet. Zhou Yichen saw Lin Jiuer sitting in front of the dressing table, so he walked over.

"I'll help you."

It was almost a month after he left the Seventh Prince's Mansion that he realized that Lin Jiuer had taken root in his heart.

He didn't know whether Jiuer had feelings for him, but he might really be willing to be captured by Lin Jiuer in this life.

Her hands moved gently and skillfully, and she quickly took off the pearl hairpin on Lin Jiuer's head. Then she picked up the rosewood comb on the dressing table and gently combed Lin Jiuer's hair.

The atmosphere in the room gradually became filled with pink bubbles.

But it didn't last long and was broken by Lin Jiuer's yawn.

"Thank you, Your Highness. I'm so sleepy. We all have to get up early tomorrow, so why not go to bed early?"

Zhou Yichen smiled bitterly in his heart, knowing that if he didn't sleep now, dawn would soon be here.

He had no choice but to watch Lin Jiuer climb onto the bed and quickly fall asleep. He quietly took out the bedding from the cupboard, skillfully made the bed on the floor, and then fell into a deep sleep.

Hu Yunshao in Cuiyun Courtyard felt that the night was particularly long.

She arranged for Chunyu to go to the side hall of Qingzhuyuan to add face-rotting poison into the whitening and nourishing cream she was making for the Queen, but she waited and waited but Chunyu did not come back to report.

Until she heard some noise outside the yard, she told her maid Xiaomei to go out and take a look.

After checking it out, Xiaomei came back and reported in panic that the yard was guarded by the Seventh Prince's guards.

Only then did Hu Yunshao realize that the truth had been revealed. She had no idea that the Seventh Prince had already returned home.

If this matter is discovered, how can anything good happen to me?

She was panicking and at a loss: "Xiaomei, what do you mean by the Seventh Prince only keeping me under guard?"

Xiaomei shook her head a little dully: "I don't know."

Hu Yunshao was furious when he saw Xiaomei's dull eyes, and slapped her: "You only know how to eat, what else do you know? Get out!"

The two capable maids Mingyu and Mingyue who were by her side were both gone. Xiaomei was also a dowry from the Hu family and was previously only a second-class maid.

Although he is dull, he is still loyal to her. However, she is really depressed because she can't find anyone who can give her advice.

Early the next morning, Zhou Yichen and Lin Jiuer got up, washed up, and had breakfast together.

Zhou Yichen looked at Lin Jiuer tenderly: "Jiuer, I also have to go to court, why don't we go together."

Lin Jiuer was startled: "Forget it, I don't know when I can get out of the palace."

"It's okay. I'll wait for you."

Lin Jiuer no longer insisted and asked A'li to take the whitening cream for the Queen, the cakes for the Queen Mother, and a few candies in crystal bottles, and got on a carriage with Zhou Yichen.

A'li sat outside with Song Zheng, who was driving the carriage.

Zhou Yichen quietly held Lin Jiuer's hand, and this time Lin Jiuer did not refuse.

Zhou Yichen's ears turned red and he didn't dare to look at Lin Jiuer.

Lin Jiuer was in a good mood seeing the innocent little man secretly doing some cute actions because he was attracted to her but didn't dare to go any further.

I feel like a scumbag who plays with other people's feelings.

In fact, Lin Jiuer probably prefers men who are more proactive in her heart, right?

"Jiu'er, I've made up my mind. From now on, I just want you to be my only woman. Are you willing to be with me?"

He looked at Lin Jiuer anxiously, afraid that she would reject him. After all, Jiuer was such an outstanding woman, and he often felt that he was not worthy of Jiuer.

Lin Jiuer was stunned by this sudden confession. This was the first time Zhou Yichen clearly expressed his feelings to her.

Watching Zhou Yichen muster up the courage to speak his mind and looking at her with expectant eyes.

Lin Jiuer giggled.

Maybe because they have been together day and night for a while, Lin Jiuer is not so averse to Zhou Yichen. Maybe it would be nice to have a long-lasting relationship.

She looked at Zhou Yichen seriously: "You know that in my previous life, Zhou Yichen also said that he would love and protect me for the rest of my life, so now I won't easily believe a man's words. I will only look at your actions."

Zhou Yichen was a little depressed. Why should he have to bear the consequences for the evil things that bastard Zhou Yixuan did?

But when he thought that he was now the seventh prince and enjoyed the treatment of a prince, he felt less conflicted.

"Jiu'er, don't worry, I will definitely do what I say."

Lin Jiuer smiled playfully: "Then it depends on your performance."

Soon the carriage arrived at the gate of the palace.

Zhou Yichen watched Lin Jiuer enter the palace gate before walking towards the court.

When Emperor Nanmo went to court today, he announced the seventh prince's achievements in providing disaster relief in Yanzhou.

These included properly resettling the victims, opening warehouses to release grain, distributing porridge, maintaining local social stability, organizing medical teams to treat the victims, preventing the spread of the plague, and going deep into the plague-stricken areas to eliminate the plague, thus recovering many of the losses suffered by the Nanmo Kingdom.

Of course, special praise was also given to the seventh prince's concubine Lin for donating pills and prescriptions for treating the plague.

Everyone knew that these things were definitely true. Although the Seventh Prince was a special envoy, he was also surrounded by his confidants arranged by Emperor Nanmo.

Things happening in the disaster area concern human lives, and no one dares to conceal or exaggerate.

For the first time, Emperor Nanmo realized that he didn't understand the son he never cared about at all.

Judging from his performance in disaster relief, his talent is no less than that of other princes.

Knowing that his son was talented, the father was naturally in a good mood because it was an unexpected surprise.

"This time, the Seventh Prince performed well in disaster relief. Not only did he prevent unrest in the disaster area, he also stopped the spread of the plague, causing the local people to praise the royal family and the court. I hereby decree that the Seventh Prince be made the King of Liang."

Zhou Yichen hurriedly stepped out to receive the order and express his gratitude.

Emperor Nanmo looked at Zhou Yichen with a smile: "Seventh Brother, you have made great contributions this time, what reward do you want?"
