The Fourth Prince was annoyed and was reclining on the soft couch with his eyes closed, trying to calm himself. When he saw Su Peisheng return, he said angrily, "Who is making such a racket outside the palace? It's giving me a headache..."

Su Peisheng walked beside the Fourth Prince and whispered, "Your Majesty, it was Fucha who agreed to request an audience with Your Majesty outside..."

Fourth Master roared, "I won't see her! What is she doing here?"

Su Peisheng knew that the Fourth Prince definitely did not want to see Lady Fucha again, and said helplessly, "This servant also advised Lady Fucha that His Majesty was busy... but... but Lady Fucha said that if there was anything to report, it was related to Consort Xi and the young prince..."

Upon hearing this, Fourth Master opened his eyes and paused for a moment before instructing Su Peisheng to let her in.

This was the first time Lady Fucha had come to see the Fourth Prince since entering the palace. As she watched the gates of the Hall of Mental Cultivation open, Lady Fucha stood up with difficulty, took a deep breath, and slowly walked in.

The Fourth Prince was already seated at his desk, staring coldly at Lady Fucha. Lady Fucha met his gaze and was so frightened that she knelt on the ground.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects... I wish Your Majesty a long life..." Fucha said to the Fourth Prince in a trembling voice, her voice awkward.

The Fourth Prince glared at him and said, "What business do you have with me?"

Empress Fucha, trembling with fear, said, "Your Majesty... I have come specifically to beg forgiveness from Your Majesty. I hope Your Majesty can forgive my past actions..." She then burst into tears, prostrating herself on the ground, sobbing, "Your Majesty knows you have done many wrong things. Your Majesty is extremely disappointed in me. I was blinded by greed and lost my reason before, which is why I did those things. I know I was wrong, but what happened before was not my intention..."

The Fourth Prince frowned impatiently and said with disdain, "I don't want to hear you say these things... Since you know you're wrong, go back and reflect on your mistakes every day... instead of coming here to say these useless things!"

Empress Fucha knelt and prostrated herself a few steps, urgently saying, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please listen to me... I know I deserve to die a thousand deaths, even killing me wouldn't be too much! Your Majesty's sparing my life is already a great act of mercy. So... so ever since I was released, I've been filled with remorse, praying for Your Majesty every day in my palace, hoping to atone for my sins... Your Majesty, I truly know I was wrong..."

The Fourth Prince roared, "Have you said enough? I don't have time to listen to your nonsense..."

Empress Fucha wept, “Your Majesty, whatever I do is in the hope of gaining Your Majesty’s attention and favor, even just a glimpse from afar would be enough for me… That’s why I lost my mind and did so many wrong things, but my heart is with Your Majesty, I love Your Majesty! My love is no less than anyone else’s, and I don’t miss Your Majesty for a single day…”

The Fourth Prince, having reached his limit, said sternly, "If you were doing this for me, you wouldn't have done such a heinous thing, much less hurt the person most important to me. I don't want to hear your explanations anymore... You should reflect on your actions and blame yourself..."

Empress Fucha, tears streaming down her face, pleaded, "Your Majesty, I know I was wrong. I have come to see you specifically to make amends for my mistake. Please, Your Majesty, let me finish what I have to say..."

The Fourth Prince glared at Lady Fucha and asked, "What exactly are you trying to say?"

Empress Fucha raised her head slightly, tears welling in her eyes, and said, "Your Majesty, I know about the matter concerning Consort Xi and her youngest son..."
