"Your Majesty, the Emperor's thoughts are all for Your Majesty's sake!" Su Peisheng became increasingly anxious upon seeing Lanqin's cold expression. Lanqin's demeanor greatly worried Su Peisheng.

"For me?" Lanqin raised an eyebrow, indicating some surprise. Not only Lanqin was surprised, but Baoqin, Yuxiao, Xichun, and the others also showed surprised expressions after hearing this.

“Your Majesty, please listen to what I have to say. Ever since the Fourth Prince was poisoned, His Majesty has felt very guilty. He feels that as the Emperor, he has not been able to ensure that Your Majesty and the Fourth Prince can live safely. That’s why His Majesty has decided to let the Fourth Prince leave the palace and establish his own residence, so that he can be far away from the inner palace. This way, the Fourth Prince will not be easily poisoned,” Su Peisheng said.

After hearing Su Peisheng's words, everyone's faces showed a look of sudden realization, but Lanqin still did not show much emotion, and said calmly: "I have thought of this. For Hongli's safety, the Emperor wants him to leave the palace and establish his own residence as soon as possible. I can understand the Emperor's good intentions. So I am happy that Hongli is leaving the palace."

Su Peisheng nodded hurriedly and said, "Your Majesty is indeed kind and intelligent. This servant was worried that Your Majesty would resent the Emperor for separating Your Majesty from the Fourth Prince, so I came here to add my own unnecessary words."

“I understand your thoughts. Eunuch Su, thank you for coming and saying these words,” Lanqin said.

"Your Majesty, please hear me out one more time." Su Peisheng said hastily when he saw Lanqin about to get up. "His Majesty has been thinking of Your Majesty every moment these past few months. Although His Majesty has not come to Changchun Palace, his heart is with you. His Majesty is doing this so that Your Majesty will be spared the attention."

After hearing Su Peisheng's words, Lanqin couldn't help but soften her heart, but her expression remained composed. Seeing that Su Peisheng had reached this point, she said, "Then His Majesty truly has good intentions. However, I still feel that these words sound a bit strange coming from you, Eunuch."

Su Peisheng hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, the Emperor refused to speak to you directly because he wanted to silence certain people. Consort Nian's people were causing trouble for the Emperor in the court, demanding that Your Majesty's rank be lowered. The Emperor withstood the pressure and resolutely turned the tables on them. Now, in order to quell any unfavorable situation for Your Majesty, the Emperor had no choice but to resort to this charade. Your Majesty, in fact, the Emperor has wanted to come and clarify things with you many times."

Lanqin suppressed her excitement, not revealing it to Su Peisheng, and said calmly, "Eunuch Su, thank you so much. I understand. Baoqin, give Eunuch a paper umbrella; the sun is too strong outside."

Su Peisheng noticed that Lanqin didn't immediately go to see the Emperor as he had expected, and judging from her attitude, she seemed different from when she first arrived. Knowing it was best not to reveal more about his identity, Su Peisheng gave Baoqin a few meaningful glances before leaving.

After Su Peisheng left, Baoqin immediately said, "Your Highness, Eunuch Su came specifically to say these words. In my opinion, it was at the Emperor's behest. This shows that the Emperor intends to reconcile with Your Highness."

"Yes, yes, Your Majesty, please don't misunderstand the Emperor. He went to Yikun Palace for Your Majesty's sake," Yu Xiao echoed.

"I'm a little tired. Xichun, help me into the house to rest for a while," Lanqin said, standing up without responding to the two women.
