The Fourth Master's passion suddenly cooled down when he encountered the Crown Prince, who was as cold as ice.

I was sulking in my heart: This country will be the prince's country in the future anyway, so why should I be so anxious if he doesn't care?!

He has been working in a thankless role and offended so many people during this period. When the emperor comes back, I don’t know how he will be punished.

He was so discouraged that he was too lazy to move.

Unexpectedly, before noon, urgent news came from the front line - Galdan was captured alive!

Everyone present, including the prince, was delighted.

The army had only been on the battlefield for a month when they captured Galdan alive. What a feat!

Needless to say, the emperor is very pleased, and when the time comes, they will all be rewarded according to their merits!

The Fourth Master's blood, which had just cooled down, began to boil again.

Fei Yanggu and his two sons are on the expedition this time. As long as they don’t make any mistakes, they will receive military merit!

More importantly, although he offended many people in the Ministry of Revenue, he also ensured food and grass, which was also a great achievement!

The meeting hall was filled with harmony, and the Fourth Master went to the Ministry of Revenue with a smile on his face.

After all, what remains are the aftermath matters, and the silver owed is sufficient for the subsequent supply of food and fodder.

The Fourth Master no longer had a headache, and officials of all ranks in the Ministry of Revenue no longer lost their hair in large clumps.

Everyone was counting the days, waiting for the emperor to return safely and reward the people according to their merits.

The Fourth Master no longer had to live in the palace. After returning to the mansion, Su Peisheng reported what he had found.

"Madam Liu went to the Imperial Household Department to get the flowers," Su Peisheng said, lowering his head. "Since you've been living in the palace for a while, they specially picked out the best ones for you."

"Fu Jin was pregnant, and she didn't want any flowers or plants, but gave them all to Wu."

"Madam Liu is in charge of the flowers and plants in the garden, while the flowers and plants in each courtyard should be managed by the concubine."

"Fujin's health was pushed down to Nanny Gui, and Nanny Gui's leg discomfort was pushed down to Madam Wu."

After much investigation, they found the cause of the problem: the Wu family, who had no roots.

"Heh," the Fourth Master sneered.

Ghost letter!

The methods used by the main court are becoming more and more secretive.

Don’t say there is no evidence to prove that Zhang’s spotting is related to a few pots of flowers.

Even if it was proven, he couldn't find a reason to get angry. After all, the flowers were not arranged by Fu Jin herself.

If he insisted on getting angry, the main court could send out a princess from the Wu family to calm his anger.

He just wasn't what they wanted!

The Fourth Master twirled the ring on his finger and snorted coldly, "It's most important for Concubine Fu to protect the fetus. From now on, all the flowers and plants will be taken care of by Li."

If you don’t want to take care of the flowers and plants, then there’s no need to bother with them.

When Fu Jin received the news, she was eating a cantaloupe cut into the shape of a flower.

After the eunuch who delivered the message left, she stabbed the silver fork in her hand into the cantaloupe.

"So fickle!" She cursed loudly, her liver aching with anger.

If she didn't know that he was the emperor's good son, she would have scolded both his father and mother!

Aunt Gui looked anxious and advised, "Fujin, you can't get angry about this!"

"They are just some flowers and plants. Since you don't want to take care of them, it's fine to let Li take care of them."

During this Shangsi Festival, she was so busy that she was running around, and Wu was sensible enough to take over the task.

It doesn't matter whether this is done by Wu or Li.

Fu Jin was so angry that tears fell down: "Why?! Why does she, a princess, have the right to be in charge of the affairs of the backyard?"

Even the most inconspicuous flowers and plants can get a lot of benefits after handling them!

Letting Li make money is more painful than her losing money!

"Fujin, there is also Madam Liu. How can a princess like Li command her?" Madam Gui saw it clearly.

"Besides, Li's personality is such that she can float up into the sky with just a breath of air, and she's so short-sighted."

"If she's not in charge, she won't make mistakes. But if she is, she will definitely make serious mistakes."

"Then the master will know that you are the best!"

In Nanny Gui's eyes, although Fu Jin's personality was a little twisted, she was still a lovely and good woman.

The Fourth Master doesn't like Concubine Fu now because he doesn't see her good side, and there's also that group of vixens who are causing trouble behind the scenes.

Once I see the true colors of Li and others, I will naturally discover the loveliness of Lady Fu Jin.

Fu Jin was so angry, but there was nothing she could do. The most important thing for her now was to take care of the baby.

This right had been divided once before, and now it just makes the Li family angry that they got the benefit.

After listening to Aunt Gui's coaxing, he calmed down.

However, she added, "Go and give Wu a try!"

"If he can't even handle the smallest task, what's the point of having him in my main courtyard?!"

Nanny Gui nodded and coaxed her to sleep, then went to the side courtyard to find Wu.

Wu looked so panicked that she even wanted to kneel down and kowtow to a servant when she saw her coming.

Nanny Gui was not so arrogant yet. She pulled Wu to sit on a chair and patted her hand: "Ms. Wu, please don't make this servant suffer."

"Madam Gui, you are too kind," said Mrs. Wu, wiping away her tears.

Nanny Gui said, "This kind of thing happened in the backyard because of the poor management of the main courtyard."

"My master is very angry now, and he has given some power to Shaoguangyuan."

"If the main courtyard doesn't express something, it will inevitably anger me..."

As she spoke, she looked directly at Wu, whose face turned pale and she almost bit her lip.

Finally, I had to apologize: "It was my carelessness that caused me to make such a big mistake. Please punish me, Madam."

"Since you, Lady Wu, have truly repented, go to the small Buddhist temple and copy two volumes of Buddhist scriptures for the little lady in Lady Zhang's belly," Nanny Gui said with a smile and patted Lady Wu's hand, looking relaxed.

Wu's expression changed and she agreed obediently.

Nanny Gui walked away with a group of maids in a swagger. Wu's maid Bai Lu immediately grabbed her hand and cried.

"Princess, what should we do?" Bai Lu was terrified. "I heard that Aunt Gui broke her leg while kneeling and copying scriptures in the small Buddhist temple."

"How can you endure such a severe punishment?!"

Wu no longer looked as panicked and frightened as before. She stood up and carefully checked to see if there was anyone outside before closing the door.

"Stop crying. How can the lady trust me in the future if I don't show my loyalty to her?!" There was no fear in Wu's eyes, only the excitement of having her plan succeeded.

Bai Lu was stunned for a moment, then she wiped away her tears and asked, "Princess, what are you trying to do?"

A few days ago, when I asked her to send poinsettias and lilies to Linfengju, she felt a little strange.

The princess loved making perfumes and powders, so she joined in the fun, knowing that these flowers were not good for pregnant women.

However, Lin Fengju was not pregnant, so he put his doubts aside.

Now let’s see what Gege meant, or was it intentional?!

"Oh, Lin was lucky enough to escape this disaster," Wu said, throwing away the tattered handkerchief in her hand. "Fortunately, I also sent a few pots to Zhang to avoid suspicion."

"Zhang Shi has indeed protected Lin Shi from disaster. If something happened to Lin Shi, the Fourth Master would not take it lightly."

"But that's fine, this way I'll be punished less."

Fortune and wealth are achieved through risk, and this time it seems that she has been punished and suffered a loss.

But in the future, Fu Jin will treat her as her own, and the Fourth Master will also feel that... he owes her, right?
