On the way back, Yingyu couldn't help but think of Tong Xuean, whom she had met on the road. He looked like a kind and gentle person.
I imagine she's someone who knows how to care for others!
It is said that the Tong family has a very upright family tradition, which should be true!
Meanwhile, on the other side, Yinzhen also received the imperial edict.
With the imperial edict in hand, Yinzhen finally felt at ease. Although Kangxi had given him a guarantee, he couldn't be at ease until the edict was issued, even if there was only a one in ten thousand chance that something might go wrong.
After all, most people can't understand the awkwardness of him being in this position and still being a virgin.
Just as Yinzhen was in high spirits, Su Peisheng came over and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, I have already put the dog in the cat and dog room as you instructed. What do you think?"
Yinzhen: "All done? You were quite quick. Well done."
Su Peisheng laughed even more heartily: "It's all what a servant should do."
Since Yinzhen had nothing to do today and was just idling around anyway, he said, "Let's go check out the cat and dog room."
Su Peisheng: Yes
Yinzhen went to the cat and dog room with great interest, and then saw two Pekingese dogs that perfectly suited his taste, which made him very happy.
Seeing the clothes the dog was wearing reminded me of the feelings I had when I drew them, and I felt a surge of indescribable emotion. It reminded me of a certain princess. This feeling was novel, but quite nice.
Yinzhen was a dog lover, and he played with the dog for a while. When it got dark, he realized that he had been there for a long time and then remembered that he should go back.
The cat and dog shed was built in the backyard, mainly because Tong Cheng'er had cats and thought she would need them in the future. So when Yinzhen came to the cat and dog shed, he also came to the backyard.
Since the Fourth Prince's residence was built and he moved in, this was the first time that Yinzhen had spent so much time in the backyard.
His whereabouts were being watched by some people, so the people in the backyard soon got the news.
Especially Lady Li, although she is currently the best treated person in the inner quarters, this does not negate the fact that she is the only one in the inner quarters who has not even seen the Fourth Prince.
She has truly waited enough these past few years.
The Fourth Prince's residence was strictly managed, and he never mistreated the people in the inner quarters. However, people always need something to strive for in life, especially someone like Lady Li who already had lofty "ambitions".
She came to the capital to break down the barriers of her social status, and now that she has become the Fourth Prince's princess, she has achieved her wish. However, she has this status but has not even been able to touch the Fourth Prince, which is not what she wants to see.
However, she wasn't stupid. Although the Fourth Prince never came to her place, others would only visit once and then never go again.
So she figured there must be some reason for it. Also, her treatment was better than others, which gave her a sense of superiority, since she was being treated specially, wasn't she?
Driven by this sense of superiority, and having grown impatient with the wait, and seeing that the selection of the Fourth Prince's wife had already been made, she decided to take the initiative.
In recent years, Yinzhen's harem has been quite well-behaved, so he had almost forgotten that he was keeping quite a few women in his harem. Therefore, he did not hide his whereabouts, and then Li Shi found out about it.
On his way back to the front courtyard, Yinzhen encountered Lady Li, who was dressed in a fresh yet alluring manner.
Su Peisheng was startled when he saw the person suddenly appear on the road, and then he secretly watched his master's reaction.
Since his master didn't react, Su Peisheng remained silent.
Su Peisheng looked at Li Shi's appearance again. To be honest, even he, a man without a family, felt his heart flutter just looking at her, which showed that Li Shi was indeed outstanding in appearance.
Moreover, she dressed up carefully, and her appearance was alluring yet gave people a sense of innocence. Su Peisheng wondered, "Can the master really resist?"
At this moment, Yinzhen frowned and said, "How can you be so unruly? Don't you know that you can't move around freely in the mansion at this time?"
Lady Li was surprised by Yinzhen's good looks when she heard this remark.
She was startled and immediately knelt down, her eyes reddening, tears welling up but not falling. She looked so pitiful that a man would be heartbroken if he saw her.
Then, with a wronged expression, she said, "This concubine, Li Shi, greets Your Highness. I have disturbed Your Highness's peace and quiet. It is my fault, and I hope Your Highness will forgive me."
That voice was incredibly alluring, especially those repeated "Master~" calls. If an ordinary man heard it, he would probably lose his soul.
And what about Yinzhen?
He felt nothing at all. After all, strictly speaking, he couldn't be considered a real man. He had never experienced being tossed around by waves; at best, he was just a boy.
Therefore, Li's alluring and seductive offensive was a complete waste of her acting skills, and she achieved nothing.
Yinzhen frowned even more deeply: "No matter who you are, rules are rules. In my residence, you must abide by the rules I have set. Go back to where you came from."
Upon hearing this, Li's face turned pale.
She never expected there to be such an insensitive person. All the skills she had learned were useless, which was truly infuriating.
But what could she do even if she was angry? The Fourth Prince wouldn't listen to her. How could a mere concubine possibly reason with a prince?
Helpless, Li could only slink away.
After she left, Yinzhen was in a bad mood.
That's right. There are always some women whose existence constantly reminds Yinzhen that he is a man who is almost unable to "get up" with women. This is something that no man can tolerate.
Back in his study, Yinzhen instructed Su Peisheng: "Since Li still has so much free time to wander around, I think she's living too comfortably. Let her resume the same allowance as Wu."
Yinzhen didn't want to be cuckolded again, so he treated Li Shi fairly well, thinking that if he didn't touch her, he wouldn't see those scenes, and if he couldn't see them, they didn't exist. Who would have thought that she would feel that she was living too comfortably and would cause trouble for no reason?
He thought that there was no need to deceive himself anymore, so Li's insignificant special treatment should be revoked.
When Li returned to her room, she still looked rather unwell. Not long after, she received the news that her allowance had been restored to the same level as Wu's, and she almost fainted from anger.
Yinzhen couldn't care less about all those trivial matters.
He now has only one thought: to see how to bring the wedding date forward.
After all, having excessive liver fire isn't a pleasant experience, and sometimes it's not as comfortable as having your wife solve some problems for you as you do yourself.
Yinzhen had such plans, and so did Kangxi! After all, he knew his son's situation best, and before Yinzhen could make any move, Kangxi set the date for their wedding.
Just six months later.
Six months later, although Yinzhen still felt it was a bit too long, he also knew that six months was already short, after all, the Crown Prince had waited one or two years after being betrothed!
He couldn't possibly be so insatiable; he understood the principle that one shouldn't be too greedy.
