In the evening, the Fourth Prince sat on a chair reading. Su Peisheng brought a cup of chrysanthemum tea and handed it to the Fourth Prince's lower hand, saying, "Your Highness, reading at night hurts your eyes! I made you a cup of chrysanthemum tea."
The Fourth Prince glanced down at the tea. He lifted the lid and was about to take a sip when he discovered that wolfberries had been added to the tea.
"Oh! That's really interesting! Chrysanthemum and wolfberry are both good for eyesight. Thank you for taking the trouble!"
Su Peisheng didn't dare take credit for it. He smiled respectfully and denied it. "I'm so stupid, how could I have come up with such a good idea? This was ordered by the Fourth Lady. She said that the prince is always hardworking. As his wife, I must take good care of him!"
The Fourth Prince felt a little warm in his heart. The Emperor favored the Crown Prince, and his mother favored the Fourteenth Prince.
When he was young, he was raised by the Imperial Noble Consort of the Tong family, but they were not biological mother and son, so there was always a gap between them.
At that time, in order to please the Imperial Noble Consort Tong, he often said that it was his blessing to have such a noble adoptive mother as the Imperial Noble Consort Tong. However, when these words reached the ears of Consort De, a rift gradually developed between the mother and son.
But what can the Fourth Prince do?
Everyone praised him for being cautious, modest and respectful, but little did they know that sometimes he really envied the Crown Prince for being able to make stupid mistakes so often because the Emperor would always cover for him.
He also envied the tenth prince for having such a noble mother who loved him very much. Even the fourteenth prince was raised by Concubine De since he was a child and lived a carefree and happy life.
"Of course I know that Fu Jin has me in her heart. She is a concubine's daughter, and I think she hasn't been very happy living in the Ulanara family these years. This prince and she can understand each other's pain and difficulties."
Seeing that these past events had caused the Fourth Prince grief, Su Peisheng quickly changed the subject, saying with a smile, "Now, the Prince and his wife are both distinguished people, and with the little Prince Honghui, they are highly valued by the Emperor. Today, his wife and his concubine took the little prince to visit the Emperor, and they returned with many rewards. Who can compare to this blessing and honor?"
The Fourth Prince smiled contentedly. He was very happy to have such a promising son.
only………
"Su Peisheng, you said Honghui has been close to Concubine Jin since he was young. Will this affect his mother-son relationship with Yixiu?"
Su Peisheng was stunned for a second. After he came to his senses, he was about to kneel down, but was stopped by the Fourth Prince.
"I'm just bored today, so I'm just chatting with you. Even if one or two of my words offend you, I'll forgive you!"
Su Peisheng then stood up, but he still replied very cautiously: "Although Prince Honghui is close to the concubine, he is usually taken care of by the fourth concubine, so it shouldn't be like this!"
The Fourth Prince's brows were solemn, and there was a hint of coldness in his tone.
"I grew up in this deep palace and have seen all sorts of schemes and intrigues. Today they are as close as sisters, but tomorrow they can stab each other in the back! I don't want Honghui to go through the same hardships I've gone through!"
Su Peisheng was very helpless. Your Highness, this is a bit too cautious.
Not to mention the original situation of Concubine De in the palace, which was different from that of Concubine Fu and Concubine Concubine. Even if he looked coldly at the good relationship between Concubine Si and Concubine Concubine, he would never become estranged because of such a thing.
Su Peisheng thought for a moment and replied, "I am stupid, but today when I went to see Concubine Jin with your reward, I happened to see her taking care of the little prince. It seems that Concubine Jin loves the little prince very much."
After hearing this, the Fourth Prince casually waved his hand and said, "Never mind, never mind. I hope I'm just being overly suspicious. Mother must have known about the matter of marrying a concubine, but she hasn't even sent a letter!"
Su Peisheng was just about to say something to comfort her when he heard Wu Rihan's voice coming from outside.
"Your Majesty, I beg to see you! Please save me!"
The Fourth Prince frowned and glanced at Su Peisheng. Su Peisheng understood and lifted the curtain to go outside to see what was going on.
Wuzhihan stumbled over, her eyes red like a little rabbit. Her weak and innocent face was full of sadness, as if she had suffered a great injustice.
Seeing that Wu Rihan was a little out of breath, Su Peisheng hurried forward to support Wu Rihan and asked, "It's so late, what does Concubine Jin want to see the prince? The prince has already gone to bed!"
Wu Rihan's tears fell drop by drop. He took a tentative look at the tent and said in a trembling voice, "Eunuch Su, please let me see the prince! Please!"
Su Peisheng was a little embarrassed. He could let Wu Rihan in, but he had to find out what happened!
He was not a fool. This afternoon, the Emperor sent Wuya Ma to discipline Wu Rihan, and tonight Wu Rihan came crying. It must be that he had some conflict with Wuya Ma.
If she was just an ordinary nanny, it would be fine.
But it just so happened that Nanny Uya was bestowed by Emperor Kangxi, and she was from the Uya clan, and had some relationship with Empress Defei. With the support of these two big trees, let alone Wu Rihan, a concubine, even the legitimate wife Yixiu had to be polite to Nanny Uya when meeting her.
Wu Rihan took advantage of Su Peisheng's distraction, pushed Su Peisheng away, and rushed straight into the Fourth Prince's tent. By the time Su Peisheng reacted, it was too late to stop her and he could only let her enter the tent.
Su Peisheng stood behind Wu Rihan, helplessly extending his hand and sighing, "Concubine, please wait a moment. The prince has already gone to bed. What are you doing?"
In fact, the Fourth Prince did not want to see Wu Rihan at all. It was just a matter of jealousy between the two women. The reason why he was willing to indulge Wu Rihan's temper in the beginning was that he thought it was harmless!
But once it comes to key issues, the Fourth Prince is more clear-headed than anyone else.
Seeing Wu Rihan rushing in so recklessly, the Fourth Prince was quite displeased. He said coldly, "It's so late, I need to rest. As a concubine in the palace, you rushed in here despite Su Peisheng's obstruction. You really don't know the rules!"
After hearing this, Wu Rihan's heart trembled. Isn't the Fourth Prince too cold-hearted?
But she still had a vague expectation for this man. Wu Rihan lifted up his sleeves, which had several red marks from being hit with a ruler, which were particularly eye-catching against Wu Rihan's fair skin.
Wu Rihan looked at the Fourth Prince with a face full of grievance and cried, "I know that I have caused trouble for you by coming here, but I really don't know what I have done wrong. Why does Aunt Wuya want to torture me like this? It's not like my mother has asked for guidance before, but but..."
