After saying that, she put on a friendly smile and pulled Qin Qianqian up, "Qianqian, don't be nervous, come and sit with me."
The Fourth Prince touched his nose.
"Thank you, Madam."
After Qin Qianqian sat down, she subconsciously straightened her body.
Seeing her nervousness, Concubine Shu said softly, "I asked you to come to the palace with this brat to chat. I have heard a lot about you. You are an interesting girl. You can also use a whip, right?"
Qin Qianqian glanced at the Fourth Prince and nodded.
"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty. I do know how to use a whip."
"Did you bring the whip?"
Qin Qianqian shook her head, "No."
How could she dare to bring him with her when she knew she was going to enter the palace?
"Never mind. I still want to see you use the whip. After you marry this boy, if he makes you unhappy, just whip him. He's tough, so a few lashes won't hurt."
[How can someone who gets beaten so often not be tough? Honestly, it's been a while since I've seen the Fourth Prince get beaten up, and I kind of miss it.]
The Fourth Prince: “…”
Qin Qianqian's mind raced, wondering if Concubine Shu was testing her.
"Your Majesty, the Fourth Prince is very good and has never made me unhappy."
The Fourth Prince walked over, sat down, and coughed lightly.
"Mother, I am not a tough kid at all. And you saw it too. Qianqian said I didn't make her unhappy."
Concubine Shu rolled her eyes at him. "You took Qianqian's polite words so seriously? Who was it that made her angry every other day?"
"Your Majesty, I am speaking the truth. Perhaps in the eyes of others, the Fourth Prince is not as good as the other princes, but in my heart, he is truly excellent."
Qin Qianqian had a frank expression and clear eyes.
"Everyone has their own strengths, just like the Fourth Prince's mechanical skills. Not everyone can master them. He's working hard now, and he'll be even better in the future."
Concubine Shu's eyes moved between the two of them, and she became more and more satisfied with Qin Qianqian.
"This kid has become so aware now, and you deserve credit for that, Qianqian."
Qin Qianqian was stunned for a moment and wanted to say something, but Concubine Shu had already asked Tao Ye to see the guest off.
Watching the two of them leave, Concubine Shu was in a very good mood and picked up the tea. "I know how to protect each other. The two of them really have a mutual understanding."
"Auntie, I'm leaving now."
Yu Yiluo put down the wooden horse in her hand and followed the two of them out.
Concubine Shu stood up and looked at the things Yu Yiluo put down, then turned to ask Tao Ye.
“Is it really ugly?”
Luo'er was not taken away.
Tao Ye pondered, "Little Princess... probably forgot to take it away."
…
After leaving Concubine Shu's bedroom, Qin Qianqian noticed that the Fourth Prince was staring at her, and she finally couldn't bear it anymore.
"Why are you staring at me?"
She didn't know why, but those words came out of her mouth without even thinking.
"I didn't expect that I was so good to you."
The Fourth Prince spoke softly, seemingly unaware of her anger.
"Thank you, Qin Qianqian."
"Thank me for what?"
Qin Qianqian didn't look at her, but walked ahead by herself, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise.
"Thank you for being by my side when I was useless, thank you for not leaving me when I made you angry, thank you for letting me know what responsibility is."
Yu Yiluo followed behind the two of them.
[Oh, even parallelism is used.]
I have to walk softly, so as not to ruin the sweet atmosphere between the couple.
The Fourth Prince: “…”
It's been destroyed, okay?
"You're not bad at all, no need to thank me."
"I won't make you angry again," the Fourth Prince quickly followed Qin Qianqian, "Really, if I make you angry, you can whip me like mother said."
"You are an ordinary person. Doesn't it hurt if I hit you?"
Qin Qianqian said unhappily, "My whip is for beating bad guys, not you. By the way, were you really beaten often before?"
The Fourth Prince scratched his head and said, "I really deserved the beating. Do you think Mother was very cruel to me?"
“No, it’s just a different way of expressing it.”
[Sure enough, people in love only have each other. I followed them all the way and didn't even notice.]
[We've already reached the palace gate, yet you're still looking back at me.]
"Your Highness, Miss Qin, Little Princess."
Afeng, who was waiting at the palace gate, bowed and saluted when he saw several people coming out.
"Luo'er?"
Qin Qianqian turned her head and noticed Yu Yiluo.
"Luo'er, are you going to leave the palace? It's just right for you to come with me."
"I'm going to Jingzhao Yinfu."
"Afeng, you protect them. I will go back first."
The things Luo'er asked me to do have not been done yet.
…
The two of them went to the Jingzhao Yin Mansion together. There were a few people gathered in front of the lobby, and faint cries could be heard from inside.
Lord Pan sat in the middle, with two men in the uniforms of ministers sitting beside him.
"Master Pan, you can conduct your trial and don't have to worry about us two."
Yesterday, someone inexplicably slipped them a note, saying that they had evidence against Duke Rong. The two of them checked and found that it was indeed as the note said. Duke Rong would go to that pharmacy regularly every month to buy medicine, and he would go there in person.
There's nothing strange about it, why do I have to go there every month?
Master Pan: "..."
Is the assistant minister so idle that he actually has time to watch him try a case?
"Why did you guys go to the Duke of Rong's mansion to cause trouble? Were you instructed by someone?"
The people kneeling below trembled, "Sir, we are just greedy for money, we are not under any instructions."
They knew that if they only accused him of greed for money, they would be able to get out quickly. After all, they had already returned the money, and Duke Rong had no intention of pursuing the matter.
But if they are instructed by someone, the more involved they are, the harder it will be for them to get out, or they may not even be able to get out.
"No one ordered you to do that? Then why did you wait so long to start the trouble? What were you doing before that?"
“There were no good people organized before.”
The two ministers exchanged glances, and one of them said, "Master Pan, I suggest we first send someone to search the shops of these unruly people to see if they are really hoarding medicinal herbs as they claim."
"We've sent people to search."
At this time, a yamen runner came in quickly at the door.
"Sir, Duke Rong is here."
Duke Rong walked in from the door, looked at the two people sitting next to Lord Pan, and snorted coldly.
"The two assistant ministers are in a good mood. They actually have time to come here and watch the trial."
Several people stood up at the same time and bowed, "Greetings, Duke Rong."
Lord Pan looked back and forth between the three people. Just now he thought that these two were the Duke of Rong's men, who came to watch him try a case, but now it seems that they are not what he thought.
"Bring me a chair."
He wanted to see how that rebellious son planned to harm him.
The people nearby quickly brought a chair over and put Duke Rong aside.
"Continue the trial."
Yu Yiluo saw that it was almost time and walked out.
"The Jingzhao Yin Mansion is really bustling today."
When the yamen runner saw a child breaking in, he subconsciously wanted to stop him. Ah Feng raised his sword and held it across the yamen runner at the door.
"The little princess has arrived, so please don't act presumptuously."
