Chapter 104 Su Peisheng's Ramblings



Su Peisheng felt a pang of sadness looking at the Fourth Prince Yinzhen, who was still calling out Duofu's name even though he was unconscious. He thought that if he could reach that point someday, he would have no regrets in this life.

He didn't dare compare himself to that little dog, Duofu, and only hoped that he would have a tiny place in the heart of the Fourth Prince, Yinzhen.

Su Peisheng served the Fourth Prince Yinzhen with utmost care and diligence, not daring to be careless in the slightest, while mentally reassuring himself countless times.

During this time, the imperial physician came to examine him again and gave him acupuncture. Su Peisheng also painstakingly fed the Fourth Prince, Yinzhen, another dose of medicine.

Su Peisheng looked at the bowl of medicine, which was half full and had spilled onto the Fourth Prince Yinzhen's undergarment. He had only drunk half a bowl of medicine and wondered if it would affect its effectiveness.

They ordered hot water to be brought, and personally served the Fourth Prince Yinzhen, changing him into a new set of undergarments to make him more comfortable while he was unconscious and feverish.

Su Peisheng looked out at the sky, which had completely darkened. The torrential rain that had just started had long since disappeared, except for the rainwater still on the ground.

Su Peisheng was about to believe that the lightning and rain he had just witnessed were all in his imagination.

Sitting on the footstool by the bed, Su Peisheng suddenly remembered Duofu, whom he had hidden under the bed in Empress Tong's bedroom. His heart skipped a beat; it was already this late, Duofu should be starving.

Su Peisheng's face still showed that worried look, and he was anxious and angry. He just hoped that Duofu would be smart and not run away, but stay under the bed and wait for him to come back.

He wasn't quite sure when he could return to Chengqian Palace. He needed to find a chance to go back tomorrow, otherwise, before the Fourth Prince Yinzhen recovered, his son Duofu would starve to death.

That would be a terrible disaster for him; no one could save him.

If I had known, I should have left Duofu in the care of the wet nurse when I came to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

But when Su Peisheng heard the news that the Fourth Prince Yinzhen had vomited blood and fainted, he was so shocked that he completely forgot about Duofu, who was still under the bed, and hurriedly followed the eunuch sent by the Yangxin Hall.

Su Peisheng looked on with anticipation, hoping that the Fourth Prince Yinzhen would wake up soon so that they could return to Chengqian Palace to recuperate.

If he stayed in the Emperor's Hall of Mental Cultivation, he wouldn't be able to make any underhanded moves.

The ministers of the previous dynasty and the empresses in the harem did not allow this situation to occur.

Only His Highness the Crown Prince has this honor. If any other princess or prince receives too much of the Emperor's favor, they will be attacked by others.

Su Peisheng's wish was indeed fulfilled very quickly. The next morning, before the Fourth Prince Yinzhen had even woken up from his deep sleep, he was ordered to move back to Chengqian Palace to recuperate.

The only news Su Peisheng heard was that the Fourth Prince, Yinzhen, was too ill to stay in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, lest he infect His Majesty.

When Su Peisheng received the order, he was still incredulous. In his imagination, it should be that the Fourth Prince Yinzhen had woken up and recovered enough before being called back to Chengqian Palace to recuperate.

Who could have predicted that?

He had only been lying in bed for one night when, early the next morning, a sedan chair was brought to carry the Fourth Prince, Yinzhen, out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Although Su Peisheng knew in his heart that his master was not the emperor's most favored prince, judging from his past behavior, his master had not fallen out of favor to this extent.

Filled with doubt and dissatisfaction, Su Peisheng, led by Liang Jiugong's men, headed back to Chengqian Palace.

It was more like a bed than a sedan chair. The bed was completely covered up, not letting in a single breeze. It was carried by eight strong eunuchs, who walked steadily and at a considerable speed, clearly indicating that they were quite well-equipped.

Su Peisheng quickly followed, his heart filled with mixed feelings of joy and worry. He was happy that he was back in Chengqian Palace, where he felt more at ease and no longer had to live in fear all day long, afraid that he might do something wrong and have his head chopped off by the Emperor.

Also, we can finally move Duofu from under Empress Tong's bed to under the Fourth Prince Yinzhen's bed, so that we can not only keep a close eye on him, but also ensure that Duofu doesn't starve to death.

Thinking of this, Su Peisheng lowered his head and forced a smile, but the thought that he had only slept for one night before being moved out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation filled him with more worry than the waters of a long river.

On one hand, she wondered if His Majesty was still angry and displeased with her master.

Or perhaps it was some concubine who whispered sweet nothings in His Majesty's ear at this time, causing His Majesty to grow tired of the Fourth Prince, Yinzhen.

Regardless of the reason, Su Peisheng felt he couldn't bear it, and could only pray that his fourth prince would wake up soon.

Ideally, all of this should be under the control of their master; otherwise, the days ahead will not be easy.

What this palace has no shortage of is people who fawn over the powerful and bully the weak.

Su Peisheng was filled with worry. He didn't want to follow a prince with no future, because that would make life in the palace very difficult.

Before Su Peisheng could finish thinking through all his worries, they had already arrived at Chengqian Palace. After the group settled the Fourth Prince Yinzhen in,

Liang Jiugong said a few words of comfort and reassurance, but the gist was the same: take good care of the Fourth Prince Yinzhen and do not slack off in the slightest.

Once the Fourth Prince, Yinzhen, wakes up, we must report to His Majesty immediately, as he is very worried.

Su Peisheng nodded and bowed repeatedly, saying yes, not daring to be the slightest bit disrespectful.

Upon hearing the news, the wet nurse was already waiting outside. As soon as Liang Jiugong left Chengqian Palace, she immediately came to the room. Looking at the Fourth Prince Yinzhen, whose face was still a little red, a touch of emotion flashed through her heart, but she quickly suppressed it.

How could they possibly change the mind of the heartless Emperor if they didn't do this? If the Fourth Prince, Yinzhen, wanted to amend the imperial genealogy, he had to seize this opportunity.

If this doesn't work, then there's no hope for the rest of my life.

Even when His Majesty is most affectionate, it is impossible to change His Majesty's mind. So once His Majesty's affection has completely disappeared, do not even think about swaying him in the slightest.

The wet nurse sent someone to bring up the light food that had been prepared in the small kitchen, keeping it warm on a small stove, ready to serve at any time.

At this moment, Su Peisheng also picked up the golden nanmu food box, intending to secretly move Duofu out later.

Now, with everyone's attention in Chengqian Palace focused on the Fourth Prince, Yinzhen.

Su Peisheng has now returned to Chengqian Palace, worried about Duofu, who is injured and hungry.

That little devil can't afford to make any mistakes; all of this is the root of the problem caused by him.

If the Fourth Prince, Yinzhen, wakes up and finds that he hasn't taken good care of his beloved dog, Su Peisheng would bet his life that he would definitely get a few beatings.
