Chapter 45: Want to get into the tent? Yinzhen also looked at her, his heart...
Yinzhen also looked at her, with a complex mix of emotions in his heart, some about his past and some about what Qi Buchen had experienced.
He pursed his lips, stared at Qi Buchen closely, and murmured, "I'm sorry."
Qi Buchen took a deep breath and smiled: "Ignorance is not a crime. This is not your fault."
"Now, may I know why you didn't let me know about Toya's matter?"
Speaking of this, Yinzhen's originally complicated expression suddenly changed, and he was full of nervousness and embarrassment: "I...she..."
He hesitated for a long time but couldn't say anything. But when he saw Qi Buchen staring at her, and thought of what she had just said, he simply closed his eyes and stiffened his neck: "I'm just afraid that you will learn bad things from her!"
The blush on his face spread to the base of his neck. "She has no manners. Even if she is my fiancé, and we are not married yet, she cannot...cannot sneak into the tent..."
After she finished speaking, her eyes were still tightly closed, not daring to open them to look at Qi Buchen.
Qi Buchen was completely stunned by this answer. She hadn't expected such a simple reason. After all, in her past life, she'd seen a few dirty jokes online every day. This was just a small matter of sneaking into a tent, and they were a serious engaged couple. She was initially surprised because it didn't fit her impression of ancient people, but she just listened to it and that was it.
If we talk about learning bad things, I'm afraid she is the "worst" one, right?
Seeing Yinzhen's embarrassed expression, she suddenly had an idea and blurted out, "Are you afraid that I'll follow her example and sneak into your tent?"
Yinzhen's eyes, which had been tightly closed, suddenly widened to their full size. His face was filled with disbelief at what he had just heard.
Is it fake? It must be fake! His concubine couldn't possibly say such a thing!
Besides! He hadn't even considered the possibility of Fu Jin sneaking into his tent, okay?! He was just afraid...just afraid that Fu Jin... would pick up some bad habits from the company of bad people...After all, Fu Jin was still young and couldn't distinguish between good and bad. If she accidentally said something after returning to the capital, it would be bad for her reputation...
"You you you... I I... I haven't thought about this!" He was thinking about it over and over again, and he subconsciously refuted it with his mouth, but why did he stutter so much? Did he look so guilty?
Qi Buchen looked at him suspiciously. This little kid was so precocious at such a young age.
Yinzhen became even more anxious when he saw her expression: "No, I really didn't! Don't think too much!" He was so anxious that he used both hands to shake them.
Seeing that the child was really anxious, Qi Buchen finally believed it: "Okay, okay, I believe you didn't think about it."
Yinzhen immediately felt as if he had gone through a great catastrophe, his whole body exhausted. Now that Qi Buchen believed him, he did not dare to look at her anymore, but turned his head away and looked at Su Peisheng deliberately: "They seem to have done it. Are you hungry? Let's go back."
"etc."
This made Yinzhen's heart skip a beat, fearing he would hear something shocking from Fu Jin again: "What happened again?"
Qi Buchen was amused by his nervous look: "It's okay."
"I just wanted to wrap up our conversation."
This reminded Yinzhen of what his wife had said, and his nervousness subsided. He said seriously, "I was inappropriate in what I did today. You are my wife. The Emperor and Grand Tutor Gu both said: A wife is equal to you. We offer sacrifices together and respond to all the rites. You are the mistress of the Fourth Prince's mansion. You can find out whatever you want to know. The things you worry about will never happen."
Qi Buchen couldn't deny what he said, but she wasn't stupid enough to contradict Yinzhen in person, so she just said, "No one can tell what will happen in the future. I'm telling you all this today because I hope we can be more honest with each other in the future and not let misunderstandings arise from small mistakes. When I encounter something in the future, I will try to calm myself down and understand the reasons. I also hope that if there is anything in the future, you can try to explain it to me clearly. Even if there is something that I really can't know, I won't pursue it if you say it can't be said. Is that okay?"
Yinzhen listened quietly until she finished speaking, then nodded seriously and agreed: "Okay."
"Thank you." Qi Buchen showed a sincere smile, "Then let's go back. I'm really hungry."
Yinzhen relaxed and walked side by side with her. "After we finish eating, I'll teach you how to ride a horse."
Qi Buchen agreed with a smile: "Okay."
The two of them didn't realize for a while that in the past half day, when Yinzhen talked to Qi Buchen, he rarely said the word "Master" and instead used "I".
Lin Changqing and others simply prepared some wild game, and paired it with the snacks and porridge that ? brought with him, which was quite delicious.
After filling her stomach, Qi Buchen finally started to learn horse riding with great interest. This time, Yinzhen did not help her hold the horse, but rode the horse beside her, correcting Qi Buchen's posture from time to time.
After walking several laps with Lin Changqing holding the reins, Qi Buchen finally became familiar with the horse and could walk slowly by himself, pulling the reins.
But not long after, the wind started to blow. Lin Changqing looked around and said, "Master, looking at the sky, I'm afraid it's going to rain suddenly. We have to go back first."
Yinzhen nodded and said to Qi Buchen, "Ask Lin Changqing to help you hold the horse. Let's go back quickly."
Qi Buchen didn't try to be stubborn and let her do it by herself. But she walked slower than a normal person. She could walk faster if Lin Changqing held her hand.
But no matter how fast they ran, they couldn't reach their destination. After all, not everyone was riding a horse when they came out. Even if they could run, they couldn't run because of Qi Buchen. They didn't dare to ask the horse to speed up for fear of falling.
Seeing the raindrops as big as beans falling, if I get soaked like a drowned rat, I might even get sick.
Su Peisheng suggested, "Master, please take your wife and the guards back first, and we will run back."
They weren't the problem; the main issue was Qi Buchen. Yinzhen looked at her questioningly, "Fujin, should I take you with me?"
Everyone was so kind, and if Qi Buchen refused again, she would be ungrateful, so she nodded, and was helped off the horse by Lin Changqing, then got on Yinzhen's horse and sat behind him, but there was still a gap between them, so she just used her hands to tightly grasp the sides of Yinzhen's clothes.
Lin Changqing saw this and carefully reminded her, "Fujin, the horse is running bumpy..."
As he spoke, he saw his master loosen the reins, grab the hand of his wife and pull it forward, then wrap it around his waist. In this way, the wife's whole body was pressed against his master's back.
Yinzhen bravely completed the action, and when he felt the warm and soft touch on his back, he explained with a weak voice: "In an emergency, I have to make an emergency..."
What reassured him was that Fu Jin didn't let go, but instead gave a soft "hmm." He exhaled, pulled the reins, and with a sharp focus, he shouted, "Go!" and galloped off.
Before the rain got heavier, the two of them finally made it back to the resettlement area. Another guard who had returned early notified the palace servants to send some shelter, so apart from being a little damp, their condition was not serious.
However, Yinzhen still urged her to go back urgently: "Have someone dry her hair and drink a bowl of ginger soup. It's cold at night, so light more braziers."
The temperature on the grassland in August is just right during the day, but it is a bit cold at night.
Qi Buchen nodded in agreement and also told him: "You too."
Yinzhen reluctantly sent the man away, and only turned back to his tent when he could no longer see his back.
This scene, however, made people watch the whole process.
In the evening, when Yinreng asked Li Jiashi to serve him, Li Jiashi talked about the two scenes she had witnessed: "...The Fourth Prince and the Fourth Lady have a very good relationship."
Yinreng was still very fond of Li Jia, the woman who had given birth to his eldest son. Since they were now in bed together, he teased her, "Isn't my relationship with you good?"
I don't know what Li Jia is thinking, but she looks shy: "Your Highness is of course very good to me."
While the waves were raging here, Yinzhen fell asleep and his dreams were full of beautiful scenes.
When he woke up the next day, he instantly forgot everything in his dream, only a slight taste remained in his heart. Su Peisheng helped him get up, but suddenly he called out in surprise: "Master..."
"What's the matter?" He looked at Su Peisheng, but found that his eyes were fixed on him. Following his gaze, he saw that there was a patch of particularly different color at the center of his body.
He belatedly realized that there was something sticky between his thighs.
The master and servant were silent for a while. After all, Yinzhen was the one who had the pornographic pictures thrown to him by his own royal father, and Su Peisheng had also been trained, so they both realized what had happened.
Su Peisheng congratulated with a joyful face: "Congratulations, sir, you have become an adult now!" When he returned to Beijing, he had to report this matter to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Yinzhen was actually a little ashamed, but he didn't want to show his weakness in front of his servants, so he pretended to be calm and ordered, "Send some water."
When he saw Qi Buchen again, Yinzhen felt a little uncomfortable. After all, although he had almost forgotten last night's dream, he still vaguely remembered that there was Fu Jin in the dream.
"What are you daydreaming about?" Qi Buchen saw that he was suddenly dazed and waved his hands in front of him.
Yinzhen felt as if he had been caught doing something bad. His ears were burning. He avoided Qi Buchen's gaze and replied, "Nothing...nothing." He quickly changed the subject, "Don't you want to hear about Tuoya? I asked Su Peisheng to find out, Su Peisheng!"
Su Peisheng was standing right next to them, so there was no need for him to shout so loudly. However, Su Peisheng was probably the only one who could guess what his master was thinking just now, so he hurried forward to rescue her and talked about the matter of Princess Toya.
It turns out that Toya's mother was a slave girl, but she was quite beautiful, so Prince Tu slept with her one day. However, Princess Tu was not someone to be tribulated. She couldn't do anything to the concubines with the support of their tribes, so how could she handle a slave girl? Prince Tu was a man who didn't recognize anyone after pulling up his pants, and he turned a blind eye to the Princess's abuse of the slave girl. Toya's mother, however, was not only shot once, but also in excellent health. Even with the Princess Tu's frequent beatings, she remained strong enough to give birth to the child.
However, in Mongolia, the hierarchy between superiors and inferiors was far more severe than in the Qing Dynasty. Even if the child were born, she wouldn't be treated as a master, but would remain a slave, though a better position than other rootless slaves. If things continued like this, the best outcome for Toya when she grew up would be to serve her half-sisters, then marry them off and become a concubine or something.
But Tuoya, a woman who combined all the qualities of her mother and her scumbag father, was incredibly beautiful, a rare beauty even across the entire grassland. This meant that Prince Tu, who had previously forgotten he had a daughter, had found a treasure. If he used her well, who knew how to benefit from her?
Therefore, Prince Tu not only recognized the person immediately, but also specially registered him under the name of the princess, just to give him a good identity so that he could sell him for a good price in the future.
