Who cares about belated family affection? Family members beg for forgiveness

In the Fourth Prince’s Mansion.

The Fourth Prince was in his study looking at the exquisite headdress that his mother had sent him.

As for marrying Shui Wan'er, the Fourth Prince was very happy about it.

However, he met him privately several times.

Shui Wan'er, however, was very repulsive to him.

Don't give him any chance to get close.

He was also very annoyed about this.

Therefore, he didn't want to give the head ornament in his hand to Shui Wan'er at all.

He knew exactly who Shui Wan'er had in her heart.

But even so, so what?

He also wanted to place the beauties in the four princes' palaces.

As for how to treat her in the future.

That was his business. He would not allow the woman he cared about to fall into the hands of others.

Seeing the Fourth Prince's troubled look, Eunuch You began to advise:

"Your Majesty, if you go to the Water Palace more often and meet Miss Shui more often, Miss Shui will naturally look at you differently."

The Fourth Prince said angrily:

"Haven't you seen how she puts on a proud face all day? She wants me to pay attention to her expression."

The father-in-law laughed and said:

"Your Highness, I'm not afraid of anything else except you pestering me, just like Miss Lan Er."

The Fourth Prince thought of Lan Weiwei.

It was indeed the same. She kept him at a distance, but in the end she still obeyed him obediently.

Thinking of this, the Fourth Prince's heart began to move again.

"Well! Let's go to the Water Palace with me. I haven't visited Shui Sikong for a long time."

The eunuch held the headgear and followed behind the Fourth Prince.

As soon as I stepped out of the gate, I saw the carriage of the Marquis' Mansion slowly stop.

The Fourth Prince frowned and looked at the carriage.

"Who is here?"

Lord Lan poked his head out of the carriage.

Seeing the Fourth Prince, he was also a little surprised.

Is the Fourth Prince here to welcome him?

Thinking about what happened to my daughter.

The Marquis's face immediately turned displeased.

Get off the carriage quickly.

Salute to the Fourth Prince:

"Fourth Prince."

Seeing the Marquis's expression, the Fourth Prince raised his eyebrows.

"My Lord, are you here to see me?"

The Marquis raised his eyes and glanced at the plaque of the Four Princes' Palace.

He is the only master in this palace.

Is there anyone else?

"My Lord, is there something you need to do?"

As the Marquis spoke, he glanced at Eunuch You behind him without leaving a trace.

His eyes fell on the exquisite box.

It goes without saying that it's a woman's thing.

The Fourth Prince raised his hand and waved, signaling the eunuch to take the things back.

It will take some time to get to the Water Palace.

He could probably guess why Lord Lan came to see him.

The Fourth Prince returned to his study and sat behind his desk.

Looking at Lord Lan quietly.

"My Lord, what do you want from me?"

The Marquis did not mince words and said bluntly:

"Fourth Prince, the child in Wei'er's belly is yours."

The Fourth Prince frowned. Didn’t Lan Weiwei say that she didn’t tell her family?

Why did you tell Lord Lan right after?

The Fourth Prince did not deny it.

"Yes, the Marquis means..."

Unexpectedly, the Fourth Prince actually asked him.

Shouldn't he give himself an explanation?

"Fourth Prince, I don't know when the imperial edict will come down. Wei'er's belly can't wait."

Sure enough, he came to question him and ask for the imperial edict.

Now that the selection of a concubine is imminent, he doesn't want to mess this up.

Especially Shui Wan'er.

We can't let her know about this.

Otherwise, this marriage will be ruined.

As for Wei'er's matter, the Queen Mother would probably be even more dissatisfied.

The Fourth Prince lowered his voice:

"My Lord, I have my own plans for this matter and will not let Wei'er down. However, now is not the right time."

When the Marquis heard this, his face darkened.

"Fourth Prince, do you want Wei'er to give birth to a child of royal blood in the Marquis' Mansion? What will happen to Wei'er then? How will the child survive?"

Hearing the Marquis's questioning, the Fourth Prince felt dissatisfied.

"Lord Lan, I know you're anxious. I'm just as anxious, but my mother said we should wait. The imperial decree granting the marriage will come down together."

There is still one month left before the selection of the imperial concubine. By then, Wei'er's belly will definitely be noticeable.

"Your Majesty, Wei'er can't wait until then. We must hurry."

I talked to Lord Lan slowly, but he refused to listen.

The Fourth Prince was also displeased.

"My Lord, do you want me to bring a sedan chair to take Wei'er to the Fourth Prince's Palace right now? If that's what you want, then I'll order someone to bring the sedan chair right now."

When the Marquis heard this answer, his face turned pale.

He looked at the Fourth Prince unfriendly.

"Wei'er is the legitimate daughter of my mansion, how can I treat her so neglectfully?"

The Fourth Prince said angrily, "Wei'er is already like this now. How do you want me to treat her?"

"you……"

The Marquis was so angry that he didn't know what to say.

"Are you here to question me?" The rage on the Fourth Prince's face was even greater than that of the Marquis.

He didn't want to continue discussing this with Lord Lan.

Raise your hand and wave:

"My Lord, right now, you have two choices. Either I send someone to carry Wei'er into the palace now, or I wait for the imperial decree after the selection of the concubine and choose for myself."

After saying this, the Fourth Prince turned his back to the Marquis.

The father-in-law glanced at both parties.

He quickly walked up to Lord Lan and advised:

"My Lord, you should listen to the Fourth Prince's advice and go back first. After you go back, comfort the Second Miss. The Prince will take care of everything."

Lord Lan knew that there was no room for negotiation on this matter.

He could only be angry at his own daughter for not being able to behave himself.

Doing such an immoral thing.

Can he still blame the Fourth Prince?

The Marquis glared at the back of the Fourth Prince's head unkindly.

Without paying any attention to my father-in-law, I just left with a flick of my sleeves.

My father-in-law is innocent.

Who did you provoke?

Seeing that the Fourth Prince was as angry as a child, the eunuch advised:

"Your Majesty, do you still want to go to the Water Palace now?"

"I am in this state now, and you still have the mood to go to the Water Palace?"

The Fourth Prince walked out of the palace with a depressed look on his face.

He randomly found a brothel and drank there.

We just drank and didn't ask any girls to join us.

The public should give verbal persuasion.

"Your Highness, it's already night. Let's go back to the Four Emperors' Palace to rest. Drinking too much is harmful to your health."

"Don't worry about it. I'm very upset right now."

"Your Highness, what's there to be upset about? It's just an imperial decree from the Queen. Since the Queen has agreed, she will definitely give it to you."

"But Wei'er doesn't understand, and she's urging Lord Lan to come to me. How could I possibly treat them and their son unfairly?"

The Fourth Prince drank for another hour in frustration.

Only then did he stagger back to the Fourth Prince's Palace.

Walking on the quiet street.

It was very hard for the father-in-law to support a drunk man.

He looked around and saw a carriage slowly approaching them.

Eunuch You's face lit up with joy and he hailed a carriage.

Stuff the Fourth Prince into the carriage.

"Send us back to the Four Princes' Palace."

After saying this, the Fourth Prince got into the carriage and listened to the rumbling sound of the carriage.

The eunuch took the handkerchief and wiped the Fourth Prince vigorously.

He didn't even notice the direction the carriage left.
