Unlike the constant stream of guests at Prince Bao's mansion, Lanqin and the Fourth Prince, who were recuperating at the Yuanmingyuan, were enjoying a carefree life. After arriving at the Yuanmingyuan, the two appeared very relaxed and at ease.
The Fourth Prince no longer needed to be busy with court affairs all day long, and Lanqin no longer needed to worry about the trivial matters of the harem. In the Yuanmingyuan, the two of them lived a "retired" life like ordinary people.
The two rested at sunset and rose at sunrise, without needing to attend the morning court early, nor to spend the night worrying about state affairs and losing sleep.
Although before leaving the palace, the Fourth Prince had already instructed Hongli and the Seventeenth Prince to send the memorials from the palace to the Yuanmingyuan Garden for him to review every three days.
However, as the saying goes, "There's always a way out." What the Fourth Prince didn't know was that Lanqin, who knew him very well, had also privately instructed Hongli to send over some unimportant memorials for the Fourth Prince to review.
As time went on, the Fourth Prince saw that there were no major events in the court, so he gradually relaxed and they were able to reduce the number of memorials sent.
For the sake of the Fourth Prince's health, Hongli knew that what the Fourth Prince needed at this time was to rest and recuperate, and that the trivial matters of the court no longer needed to trouble the Fourth Prince. After thinking for a moment, Hongli agreed to Lanqin's request.
Therefore, the carefree Fourth Master was unaware that he had already begun a true life of health and wellness under Lanqin's "scheme".
In addition, in order to allow the Fourth Master to recuperate properly, Lanqin devised a series of health preservation plans.
This morning, Lanqin dragged Fourth Master, who was having tea, out for a "morning run." Fourth Master looked at Lanqin, who was dressed in "sports clothes," with a helpless expression. He looked her up and down for a while and asked affectionately, "And what are you wearing?"
"This is a sports uniform that I am wearing, specially prepared for Your Majesty, so that Your Majesty can exercise." Lanqin then turned around in front of the Fourth Prince to demonstrate the convenience of the sports uniform.
Looking at Lanqin in this state, although Lanqin has always brought out some quirky gadgets from time to time over the years, at this moment, Fourth Master still couldn't help but almost burst out laughing, because he had never seen such a peculiar outfit before.
"Your Majesty, please don't laugh at me." Lanqin said coquettishly, looking at the Fourth Prince who was laughing so hard he was angry. Then she pointed to another set of sportswear and said to the Fourth Prince, "Look, this is what I prepared for you. Before coming to Yuanmingyuan, I ordered the embroiderers to prepare it. This was just finished yesterday."
"It's just a pity..."
"What's a pity?" Fourth Master asked curiously, looking at Lanqin's regretful expression.
It's a pity we can't make athletic shoes now, so we have to make do with flat shoes instead. But, of course, Lanqin couldn't say that out loud.
"It's nothing. I just wanted to see Fourth Master wear this tracksuit and go for a morning run with me." After saying that, Lanqin waved her hand and called Su Peisheng over.
"Su Peisheng, take this and help the Emperor put it on."
"What, Lanqin, I don't want to wear these strange clothes." The Fourth Prince glanced at Su Peisheng who walked up to him, and then said to Lanqin.
"Your Majesty, this is a dress that I designed myself, and the embroiderers worked day and night to make it, just to give Your Majesty a surprise."
"Now, you refuse to wear it. Isn't that a waste of my good intentions?" Lanqin said to the Fourth Prince, feigning disappointment.
However, not long after, the Fourth Master, unable to resist Lanqin's persistent pleading, gave in and agreed to wear the tracksuit.
