Chapter 546: Master, Be Good and Take It Down
Seeing that Wenjiu had finally looked at him, the Fourth Master moved closer so that Wenjiu could see him more clearly. He then said, "I really like the face towel you made for me. With this, I no longer have to worry about being stuffy. Jiu'er is so thoughtful and always thinking of me."
Wen Jiu's hands trembled several times, and he could hardly look directly at the Fourth Master's face. After a while, he said, "Master, be good and take this thing down for me."
As he spoke, he reached out and grabbed the Fourth Master's ear.
The Fourth Master dodged immediately: "What for? I like it very much."
Wen Jiu swallowed hard: "Stop messing around, Grandpa. This... this is... a semi-finished product. I'll make you something else later, okay? I'll make you a few more, a thousand times better than this. Quickly take this down..."
The Fourth Master frowned. "So what if it's a semi-finished product? As long as it's made by you, I like it."
The Fourth Master actually felt that what his Third Brother said made a lot of sense. Women sometimes like to say the opposite of what they mean. If she says yes, then she means no. If she says no, then she means yes.
Now that he asked me to take it down, he must have been thinking that he hoped I would always wear it without disdain. He nodded confidently: "I will take it to court, and I will never disdain your craftsmanship."
My head was buzzing from drinking the wine.
Bringing the court...
Going to court...
towards……
"No! Absolutely not, absolutely not!"
Wenjiu was extremely tough, but ultimately failed to get her thong back.
Because the imperial edict has arrived.
The emperor finally thought of names for his grandchildren.
The third prince Hongyan, the fourth prince Hongshi, the fifth prince Hongli, and the sixth prince Hongzhou also sent generous rewards.
Wenjiu was stunned when he heard the children's names. The children were indeed arranged according to the historical order of the Fourth Master's sons. Wenjiu had been mentally prepared for this, so he wasn't overly surprised. A fleeting thought flashed through his mind: Emperor Kangxi had considered this for so long, had he finally settled on these names?
The Fourth Master was obviously somewhat dissatisfied with the name.
But he didn't say anything in the end, just clasped his fists and said, "Your son thanks you for your order."
Liang Jiugong personally made the trip today. After presenting the imperial edict to the Fourth Master, he immediately said with a smile, "Your Majesty, the Emperor is still thinking about the young princes. Can I go and take a look at them?"
The Fourth Master nodded: "Of course, Anda, please."
Liang Jiugong immediately responded with a smile, and even started a conversation with the Fourth Master: "Your Highness, this handkerchief of yours looks new. I have never seen it before."
Liang Jiugong was also a little surprised. The ministers were not very willing to wear face scarves, always feeling that they were not breathable and inconvenient. Especially in winter, if they were riding a horse, the front of the face scarf would freeze into two strings of icicles.
When the emperor was in court, there was a crowd of masked men. I thought a group of assassins were attending court with him.
However, he was very confused. What happened to the prince? Why was he still wearing a face towel in the mansion?
The Fourth Master had a stern face, but upon hearing this, he immediately smiled and said, "This girl made it all. I told her it wasn't necessary, but she insisted on going to all this trouble because she was afraid I'd feel suffocated. This face cloth is much more breathable than ordinary ones..."
Warming the wine: "..."
I'm not, I didn't, stop talking nonsense!!!
Liang Jiugong smiled in understanding after hearing this: "No wonder it's such a good match. The prince really looks even more handsome than usual. Concubine Wen is really thoughtful."
As he spoke, he looked at Wenjiu and smiled.
Wenjiu gave a dry laugh, already praying in his heart. Please, please, let time pass quickly.
Logically, she should be worried about the child, but now, the Fourth Master has successfully diverted her attention. All that flashed through her mind was the Fourth Master's face in his underwear...
But he turned his head back seriously, thinking he was very handsome, and smiled humbly at Wen Jiu.
"Oh, the little princes are so handsome. I haven't seen them for a day, and they seem to have grown up a lot. Oh, the fifth prince can even suck his fingers now. He's so smart, really very smart!"
Liang Jiugong's eyes were almost glued to the child. He stared at him eagerly for a long time before realizing that he had stared too long. He bowed awkwardly and said, "Your Highness, Concubine, I will go back and report to His Majesty."
These children were truly adorable. Rumors were circulating in the palace that anyone who touched one of these children would be extremely blessed. And they could even get to see them more often. Liang Jiugong's teeth were practically reaching his ears.
"Anda, have a cup of tea before you leave?" Wenjiu said this symbolically.
Liang Jiugong immediately clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, Concubine. I'll shamelessly have a cup of tea from you before I leave."
The Fourth Master nodded after hearing this. Liang Jiugong was arguably the most trusted eunuch by the Emperor's side. If ordinary people had asked, he probably wouldn't have kept him. But now, by saying this, it was a sign of intimacy. The little girl was really proud of herself.
Wenjiu was stunned, and immediately asked someone to bring another cup of tea and some snacks for Liang Jiugong to take back.
Liang Jiugong was a smart man. He stopped at the appointed time, drank a cup of tea, happily accepted the snacks to warm the wine, and then bowed and said goodbye.
Wenjiu finally breathed a sigh of relief. After the person left, she quickly tore the thing off the Fourth Master's face.
But then, the Fourth Master and Liang Jiugong left together.
Wenjiu's heart instantly jumped to his throat: "Master, where are you?"
Fourth Master: "The Emperor summoned me to the palace. There are some things I need to take care of. Don't worry, I will be back in the evening."
"No, Master, wait a minute!!"
She even lost one of her wine-warming slippers and immediately grabbed the Fourth Master's hand, trying to reach out and take the panties off his face.
But the next second, both of his hands were tightly grasped by the Fourth Master.
"Nonsense!" The fourth master was startled and immediately pushed the person to sit on the bed. "You are still in confinement, how can you not wear shoes? Do you not want your feet anymore?"
Seeing Wenjiu staring at him with the pitiful look of an abandoned kitten, the Fourth Master's heart softened. He reached out and touched her head, "You and the children can play in the house for a while. If you feel really bored, wake up Wangcai and the others. Just have someone keep an eye on them and don't let Wangcai and the others hurt the children. If you're obedient, I'll come to keep you company tonight."
Throwing down these words, the Fourth Master strode out the door. He was afraid that if he was even a quarter of an hour late, he would be seduced by that little girl, so he didn't even want to leave the house. What a nagging little devil.
Remembering that Liang Jiugong was still beside him, the Fourth Master immediately clenched his fist and placed it to his lips. He coughed lightly and said seriously, "She is younger and has just given birth. She is really too clingy. I am sorry to make Anda laugh."
A hint of surprise flashed across Liang Jiugong's eyes, and he sighed, "Concubine Wen is really concerned about the prince's health. Speaking of which, there's no other concubine in the palace who has such a good relationship with the prince..."
This was said sincerely. For example, in the imperial city, the couple with the best relationship in the past was the Prince of Zhi and his first wife.
When the first wife first married into the family, the Prince of Zhi still had concubines. Not long after her arrival, the Prince of Zhi dismissed almost all of his concubines, favoring only the first wife. This incident became a popular story in the capital.
But even these two people were not as clingy as the Fourth Prince and his concubine. Today he had gained some experience.
"I dare not." After the Fourth Master said this modestly with a stern face, he couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
Palace of Heavenly Purity.
Several princes were waiting at the gate of the Palace of Heavenly Purity. The Third Master stamped his feet, stuffed his hands into his sleeves, and said, "It's too cold! Why hasn't the Fourth Master come yet? If I wait any longer, I'll be frozen to icicles."
"Fourth Brother is here!" Tenth Master suddenly shouted, and then said, "Hey? What's that thing Fourth Brother is wearing on his face? It's really pretty."
