Chapter 66 I like you Qi Buchen was confused and was called "Master..."
Qi Buchen was so frightened by the four cries of "Oh no, my Lord" in a daze that he was scared to death. He was afraid that Yinzhen would die if he was a step late, so he crawled to the front yard.
The front yard was brightly lit, and the servants had all gotten up and stood outside, not daring to make a sound. When they saw Qi Buchen, they knelt on the ground and said, "Good luck to the wife."
Qi Buchen rushed into Yinzhen's bedroom like the wind, not even bothering to wake them up. Once inside, she saw Yinzhen, being supported by Su Peisheng, drinking water. Halfway through, he looked at her in surprise and said in a rather weak voice, "Why is Fu Jin here?"
Qi Buchen immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and didn't even bother to reply to him. He stood there panting. It had been a long time since he ran so fast.
Seeing her like this, Yinzhen felt a little guilty and quickly instructed Su Peisheng: "Hurry up and help Fu Jin sit down and pour her a glass of water!"
Su Peisheng quickly stepped forward, helped Qi Buchen all the way to Yinzhen's bedside and sat down, and brought a glass of water: "Please have some, Fujin."
Qi Buchen waited until his breathing had subsided before he took the cup and took a sip. After drinking, he wanted to give the cup to Su Peisheng, but he found that the servants in the room had all left at some point.
She could only hold it herself and asked, "The servants said you were not feeling well?" As she spoke, she looked at Yinzhen. His face was a little pale, but his eyes were bright and he didn't look like he was in bad shape at all.
She began to have doubts.
This was the first time Yinzhen had done something like this, so his eyes were a little evasive. "Ah, I guess they heard it wrong. I was exaggerating. I just... just... didn't feel well. I just vomited suddenly."
He really vomited, and in order to make it look more realistic, he even asked the imperial physician to prescribe medicine. However, he didn't want Qi Buchen to see the filth, so he asked someone to clean it up before Qi Buchen came. Anyway, the vomit was there, and no one could accuse him of faking it.
Qi Buchen narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling that Yinzhen was a little guilty when he spoke: "Really? Are you still feeling nauseous now? Where are you feeling unwell? Didn't you ask the imperial physician to check it out earlier in the day? How come you're still vomiting after the doctor didn't check it out? Which imperial physician checked it out?"
The barrage of questions caught Yinzhen off guard. "Yes... Doctor Cheng checked it out. He said it was fine, just some evil spirit entering the body. A day of rest would be enough. He vomited... maybe it was because the dinner he ate was not to his liking?"
He looked at Qi Buchen cautiously.
Qi Buchen became more and more confused and asked, "Oh? Which dish is not to your liking? I'll punish that chef."
"Hmm..." Yinzhen turned his head urgently. In order to avoid vomiting too much that night, he didn't eat dinner at all. He let Su Peisheng eat it and pretended to have eaten it. "...It doesn't go well."
Qi Buchen confirmed a certain guess, sneered, and said calmly: "Really? Are you blaming me for not preparing the food for you?"
Qi Buchen decides everything that is done in the kitchen.
Yinzhen's pupils constricted, and he could no longer remain calm: "No... That's not what I meant..."
Qi Buchen stood up and said calmly, "Since you are not feeling well, then you should rest well. There is curfew today. I will send someone to call the imperial physician tomorrow morning."
"This time, let's find another doctor." He waved his hand and was about to leave.
Seeing that Fu Jin had seen through something and was angry about leaving, Yinzhen didn't dare to let her go. He had already ignored her, and with this incident, how could she still survive?
In a hurry, Yinzhen leaned forward, grabbed Qi Buchen's arm, and pulled him back. His strength was too great, and Qi Buchen was caught off guard and was pulled back, losing his balance. After a low cry, he fell into someone's arms.
Yinzhen simply held the person in his arms, not caring whether it would make Qi Buchen angry again, and hurriedly said, "Don't leave, I was wrong, please forgive me, I didn't mean it. I was just...just...careless that day. I have been wanting to apologize to you these past few days, but you never gave me a chance. I had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure, pretending to be sick so that you can come to see me."
"Really, I really didn't mean to be disrespectful to you." He looked at Qi Buchen aggrievedly, with a hint of tears in his eyes.
Qi Buchen struggled and said, "Let me go!"
Yinzhen held her tighter, "Not letting go unless you promise not to leave."
"Let go!" Qi Buchen twisted his body, but he couldn't get away. He laughed in anger, "Just now you said you didn't mean to flirt with me? What about now?"
"Not now." Yinzhen said quickly without blinking, "I'm not being frivolous with you, I just don't want you to leave."
Qi Buchen was so angry at his righteous attitude that he simply gave up struggling, turned his head away, didn't look at him, and remained silent.
Yinzhen tried several times but failed to get Qi Buchen to speak, so he remained silent.
The two of them sat in this position for a long time. No one knew what Su Peisheng said, but the people brought by Qi Buchen didn't come to ask.
After a long while, Qi Buchen felt his neck was about to cramp, and heard Yinzhen's awkward words: "Okay... okay, I'll be honest, I... that day was not careless, I... I couldn't help myself."
After saying these four words, Yinzhen felt his face burning hot, but he still mustered up the courage to continue: "That day, you were so close to me, and I just thought you were... so beautiful. You were so beautiful that my heart was itching, and my mind was blank. By the time I reacted, it was already... already..."
I didn't have the courage to say the rest of the words.
"I know that you haven't had your coming-of-age ceremony yet, and I shouldn't be so frivolous with you. This is entirely my fault. But I... I... my heart is sincere towards you. You are my wife, my future companion, and the one who will accompany me for the rest of my life. I have long thought about treating you well and growing old with you. Before... before, that time outside the Great Wall, I said that I treated you like a younger sister, but actually, I am not. When I face my younger sister, I am completely different from when I face you. My heart beats faster, and I think of you when the tutor is lecturing. I also think of you when I am doing my homework. I feel good when I am with you, and I will be happy for a long time when you care about me. In fact, I didn't realize it before, or I didn't understand why all this happened, but this time when you were angry and ignored me, I finally understood..."
"I am pleased with you."
As if to enhance the atmosphere at the moment, there was no sound inside or outside the house.
Yinzhen waited for a long time, but there was no response from Qi Buchen. He was panicked and frightened, and asked cautiously, "Did you...did you hear that?"
After hearing this, Qi Buchen answered silently in her heart, but she didn't know how to face it. Although she had expected it, she had been forcing herself to ignore this problem and focus on other things. She was not angry with Yinzhen these days, but just subconsciously distanced the two of them. Perhaps she subconsciously hoped that such distance would make Yinzhen's feelings disappear.
But this plan obviously failed, Yinzhen... confessed his feelings.
"Fujin?" Yinzhen shook her gently.
Qi Buchen still didn't turn his head to look at him. After suppressing his emotions, he said in a flat voice: "Let me go."
"Oh, oh." Having said everything he should and shouldn't say, Yinzhen quickly let go of his hand.
Unexpectedly, after Qi Buchen stood up, he just said, "I'm going back." and walked away in two steps.
Only Yinzhen was left with his hands stretched out behind his back: "Hey..."
Qi Buchen left without any regrets, and Yinzhen could not hide his disappointment. He lay down with his face covered, feeling a mixture of emotions.
Originally...originally he just planned to apologize today and had no intention of saying the following words, but for some reason, there was an urge running around in his chest at that time, and he had to speak out.
Now that he had said it, he felt a little regretful. What would Fu Jin think of him? He shouldn't have said it! Fu Jin was so young, maybe she didn't even understand such things! Maybe she was scared by him!
Could it be that Fu Jin is hiding and crying?
Thinking of this, Yinzhen stood up suddenly and then slowly lay down again. He couldn't comfort her even if she was crying. Fu Jin was scared by him and would probably cry even harder when she saw him.
…
That night, Qi Buchen and Yinzhen tossed and turned in two places, unable to fall asleep.
On the second day, Yinzhen did not go to the study and asked for sick leave. At lunch time, he was about to go to the main courtyard to see if he could have lunch with his wife. Unexpectedly, the kitchen staff brought lunch and said that his wife had ordered that the master should not travel while he was sick, and that meals would be delivered to the front courtyard until he recovered.
Yinzhen did not dare to object and ate three meals a day without any appetite. The next day, he did not dare to pretend to be sick and went to the study early in the morning.
When I came back at night, I subconsciously walked towards the main courtyard, but when I reached the second gate, I was stopped by the gatekeeper.
The woman who stopped him said tremblingly, "Sir, the wife has ordered that we rest today because we are too tired. Please don't go to the main courtyard."
Yinzhen stood there looking at her with a cold gaze for a long time. Su Peisheng and others followed behind him, but no one dared to speak.
The gatekeeper was so scared that she was about to cry. What had she done to anyone? She was just a tool to pass on the message. If there is a grievance, there must be a person responsible. If she has the guts, go find the real culprit!
Just when she thought she was going to be dragged away, she saw the boots in front of her turn around and carry her away. Until she could no longer hear the footsteps, the old woman stood up exhausted.
Really, she originally thought that guarding the gate was the safest job, but now it seems to be quite deadly. She should quickly go and ask the manager to change her job.
But this place cannot be changed easily, so she was forced to live in dire straits for the next few days.
It had been five days since Yinzhen was stopped. This time, he did not leave, but said coldly, "Get out of the way."
Hearing the coldness in his tone, the old woman ran away in a panic.
Yinzhen entered the second gate and walked all the way to the main courtyard. The door of the main courtyard was also closed. Su Peisheng stepped forward and called out: "Open the door, the master is here."
There was a rustling sound from inside, and a voice said tremblingly: "My lord, the concubine has gone to bed."
Yinzhen's cold voice sounded again: "Open the door."
After a commotion inside, the door was opened and several maids knelt on the ground: "Greetings, Master."
Yinzhen didn't even glance at them, walked straight into the main house, turned around and went into the room on the left.
Baozhu stood in front of the door to the left room and knelt down, saying, "Master, the wife has gone to bed."
"Get out of the way." Yinzhen still only had two words.
Baozhu was actually very scared. The prince was very different tonight than usual. She felt like she was losing her breath. But for Fu Jin, she mustered up the courage and said, "Master, you and Fu Jin haven't consummated your marriage yet, no..."
"Su Peisheng." Yinzhen's cold voice interrupted her.
Su Peisheng signaled the two eunuchs to come forward and support Baozhu on both sides: "Miss Baozhu is tired too, let us take you out to rest."
There was no longer any obstruction at the door, and Yinzhen walked into Qi Buchen's bedroom and turned around the screen.
I saw someone who had already gone to bed sitting in front of the dressing table.

The author has something to say: Qi Buchen: How dare you pretend to be sick in front of me? When I was pretending to be sick, you were still lying on the ground.
Yinzhen: You dare to stop me from seeing my wife? Su Peisheng, carry him away!
