"My lord, a letter has been sent by the concubine's family. Would you like to send it directly to the east courtyard as usual?"
"A letter from home?" Fourth Master stopped in his tracks.
Su Peisheng really wanted to knock his stupid apprentice's head off. What was there to report? Didn't he see that Fourth Master's face was not good?
Fu Lu didn't see his master blinking so hard his eyes were practically twitching behind him, and he still replied stupidly, "Yes, it was sent by the concubine's family."
Fourth Master stopped and stared at Fu Lu.
Fu Lu only then realized what was happening, and hurriedly knelt down to pay his respects: "Is there something wrong?"
The Fourth Prince said coolly, "You personally deliver it to the East Courtyard, and come back to collect your reward."
Huh? Fu Lu answered blankly.
Fourth Master had already walked far away. Su Peisheng followed behind, only thinking of the saying "fools have foolish luck," and kicked Fulu: "Aren't you going yet?"
Fu Lu went off to do his business, and Su Peisheng followed behind the Fourth Master. He watched the Fourth Master enter the study, and pondering the Fourth Master's intentions, he did not go in to disturb him.
The Fourth Prince stayed in the study for a long time.
Su Peisheng only cautiously went in after hearing the Fourth Master's summons from inside.
"Go yourself and deliver this memorial to Father Emperor."
Su Peisheng hurriedly accepted it, knowing the importance of the matter and not daring to delay at all. He instructed his muddle-headed apprentice Fulu to take good care of him before leaving.
Only then did the Fourth Prince leave the mansion and head to the Ministry of Revenue.
In the manor, the Fujin got up a little late today. When she heard that the Fourth Prince had already returned to the front courtyard, she scolded him, "Why didn't you wake me up? You've been neglecting the Fourth Prince."
Yu Ru then smiled and said it was the Fourth Master's idea.
The princess smiled again, finding it rare for her to be in a good mood.
However, this good mood did not last long, because when she talked about the Nian family with the Fourth Prince yesterday, the Fujin asked Granny Qian to go to the Nian family in person to ask her mother.
As she ate her breakfast, thinking about the scene of the Fourth Prince talking to her last night, the Fujin smiled again.
But for some unknown reason, the smile on the princess's face suddenly froze.
The next second, the Fujin stared sharply at Yu Ru beside her.
"Grandpa told me yesterday that he got several pots of green chrysanthemums. I got two pots. What about the others?"
The Fourth Prince's front yard was filled with flowers and plants, but his wife subconsciously felt that something was amiss.
After all, neither Yu Ru nor Granny Qian told her how many pots of green chrysanthemums the Fourth Master had received.
这让福晋早先一直以为只有她这里得了两盆绿菊，别处都没有。
玉如闻言心里便咯噔了一声。
她吞咽了一口唾沫，察觉福晋这会儿的目光跟夹着刀子似的。
