Chapter 408 Master, I’m Afraid
"Now that the master is back, I can eat well and sleep well." Wenjiu felt very kind when listening to the fierce words of the Fourth Master.
As long as he doesn't get wronged and doesn't turn evil, it's fine if he can be a little arrogant.
[Ding, received 1 heart from the Fourth Master for upgrading.]
Wenjiu curled the corners of his lips and put his arms around the Fourth Master's neck and rubbed it.
The Fourth Master is back, it feels so comfortable.
In just a short while, two hearts grew.
Plus, a heart grew at noon today, which is enough to deduct two days' worth of points.
In the memory fragments, she saw the evil Fourth Master, but in fact she felt more heartbroken. She was really afraid that the Fourth Master would become like that.
I always feel that a clear-headed and tall man like him should not suffer such injustice.
The Fourth Master, holding the warm wine in his arms, couldn't help shaking his head and laughing when he heard her say, "Clingy!"
After cursing, he suddenly frowned again: "It's only been a few days since I last saw you, and you're already so ignorant.
If I were to accompany the Emperor on his southern tour, I would be away for at least two or three months. What would you do?"
Wen Jiu was stunned when he heard this. He frowned and looked at the Fourth Master: "Southern Tour... is it going to be by water?"
The Fourth Master said, "Of course."
"Master, please take me with you?" Wenjiu suddenly said.
She didn't know if the southern tour in the memory fragment was this one, but Wenjiu always felt uneasy and she had to stay with the Fourth Master.
"Nonsense!" The Fourth Master frowned. "This southern tour is official business. How can I bring you along? And you're pregnant. What if something happens during the trip? What will we do?"
Seeing Wen Jiu's pitiful look, the Fourth Master finally softened his voice and said, "Silly girl, don't worry, I will be back as soon as possible. When the time comes, I will leave Su Peisheng at home and let him take care of all your food and drink.
Aunt Gui is a bit too strict, I will find a way to send her away before I leave for the southern tour, so you don't have to worry."
Wen Jiu heard this and suddenly shook his head gently: "Master, there is no need to send Aunt Gui away, she is fine."
The Fourth Master was surprised: "You think Aunt Gui is good?" Aunt Gui was also quite famous, and could be said to be feared by everyone. How could a little girl actually think Aunt Gui was good? It was really strange.
Wen Jiu nodded: "It's really good, Mammy is well-mannered and speaks frankly. I was a little uncomfortable in the first two days, but I got used to it in the past two days. I can learn a lot from her serving me.
But, Master, why did Nanny Gui come to me? I heard from Master Jiu and the others that Nanny Gui is the Emperor’s confidant.”
After hearing what Wen Jiu said, the Fourth Master couldn't help but frown. This Old Nine has no control over his mouth and says whatever he wants.
I was afraid of scaring the little girl, so I didn't let Su Peisheng speak too clearly, but he drank all the old wine.
"It's nothing. It's just that since you're pregnant and there's no one to take care of you, Nanny Gui happened to be free, so the Emperor asked her to come and take care of you for a while."
Wen Jiu felt something was wrong, and subconsciously raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is that it?"
The Fourth Master nodded calmly: "Well, that's it."
The Fourth Master coughed lightly and continued, "Since you like her, then why not let her serve you for a while longer? Nanny Gui has always been steady and prudent. I can rest assured that she will look after you."
Although Nanny Gui is a bit strict with the rules, no matter who the Emperor has placed her with over the years, there has never been any trouble. Even the concubines have to show some respect to Nanny Gui. Putting her next to Jiu'er is just right.
"Sir, when are you leaving?"
"We will set off in a few days. We have already made preparations in the past few days. We are just waiting for the order from the Emperor."
Wen Jiu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Master, are you in charge of the guards this time?"
The Fourth Master was stunned for a moment, then suddenly said with a smile, "How did you know that, little girl?"
The Emperor told him this a few days ago, and he was utterly shocked. He had no idea how the little girl knew so much.
Wen Jiu smiled: "That's just my guess. Our master is so powerful. If he comes to protect us, we will definitely feel at ease."
As he spoke, Wenjiu grabbed the Fourth Master's arm and shook it: "Master, let Jiuer go with you. Jiuer promises to protect his child and nothing will happen to him."
The Fourth Master was determined this time and said, "No, I say no and it's no. You just wait in the house. I will be back soon."
Seeing Wenjiu's bright eyes rolling around, the Fourth Master said directly, "Don't try to follow me secretly like you did last time. This time, I'll have someone watch you closely!"
This time it might be even more dangerous, and she must not be taken with him. The Fourth Master himself was not sure.
Wen Jiu knew from the look on Fourth Master's face that this matter was non-negotiable. This Master was often stubborn, and if he wanted to get him to agree to let her go with him despite her pregnancy, he would have to resort to some extraordinary means.
Just as he was thinking about something, he suddenly saw Xiaodouzi come in. He bowed neatly and said, "Lord Beile, young lady, Madam Sun from the Fujin's courtyard is here. She said she has something important to report to Lord Beile."
It was not surprising at all that the wine was warm. The Fourth Master had been in her yard for a while, and she didn't expect that Lady Fu Jin could be patient for such a while.
She thought that the Fourth Master would be stopped by Lady Fu Jin as soon as he entered the room.
The concubine invited the prince over, probably to talk about Liu.
I gave her some croton powder, and logically, it should have healed in two days. Now, after more than half a month of intensive care, she still says she's not getting better. Nine out of ten, she's probably waiting for me.
Wen Jiu thought about it and simply shrank into the Fourth Master's arms: "Master, I'm scared."
Seeing the little girl's lifeless appearance, the Fourth Master frowned immediately: "What happened?"
Wen Jiu poked his little finger guiltily, then nudged himself into the Fourth Master's arms: "Jiu'er seems to have made a mistake."
The Fourth Master squeezed her hand and said, "What happened? Tell me."
Wenjiu's voice was soft: "Two days ago, Master didn't come home, and Liu stole my food. I wanted to punish her, so I put croton powder in my food. Who knew that after eating my food, she didn't get better for half a month."
Fourth Master: "Hasn't healed in half a month?"
Wen Jiu nodded: "Well, Master, do you think that he might have been sick from eating something? If I had known, I wouldn't have given her chin bean powder. It's all because I was so angry that I lost my mind. After all, she is also Master's princess."
The Fourth Master couldn't help laughing when he heard this. He stretched out his hand and used some force to flick Wenjiu's forehead, saying bluntly: "Do you still have time to regret it? Let's see if you will still be so willful in the future."
Wenrou immediately nodded obediently: "I dare not, I dare not."
He still looked frightened.
The Fourth Master shook his head in amusement and patted her back soothingly: "It's okay, you just took some croton powder. It will be fine in two days. It's not as serious as you say." The Fourth Master now knows some medical knowledge and is probably familiar with the properties of simple medicines. It's just using some croton powder. It won't go wrong.
