Su Peisheng has been carefully observing his master's every move lately. He hadn't noticed anything before, but now the more he observes, the more alarmed he feels.
This doesn't look like raising a son at all.
Su Peisheng knew very well what his master was like to the young masters in the manor. Although he occasionally showed some fatherly affection, he was usually a strict father.
No one has ever been as meticulous and patient with me as they are with their little darling, whether in life or in studies.
In comparison, the young masters in the manor seem like they were adopted.
Moreover, when the little prince was young, such a look would never have made anyone think anything of it. But now it's different. The little prince has grown up and is becoming more and more handsome every day.
What if I have those kinds of thoughts?
Su Peisheng knew about this kind of thing; it was quite common in private. Those of high status always kept one or two handsome men and beautiful women in their backyards.
His master had never shown any interest in this before. Su Peisheng was so engrossed in his thoughts that he managed to control his gaze and stared directly at the Fourth Prince from behind.
The Fourth Prince was always sensitive to stares, and these past few days, Su Peisheng had been staring at him intently, making him think he was sneaking around and hadn't been discovered.
Today it's even worse; they're not even bothering to hide it anymore.
"What's wrong with you lately? You keep staring at me."
The Fourth Prince's low, husky voice, tinged with coldness, reached Su Peisheng's ear, startling him so much that he instinctively knelt down.
Su Peisheng finally came to his senses and inwardly groaned. He should have kept his head down and stammered, not knowing what to say.
"This servant...this servant...was just lost in thought."
If the Fourth Prince hadn't known of Su Peisheng's loyalty, he would have thought Su Peisheng had been bribed, and he would have been distracted all day on duty.
The Fourth Prince raised his eyelids and swept his gaze over Su Peisheng indifferently, his voice low and icy.
"Think it over before you speak. You've been by my side since you were little, so you know I hate lying the most."
The Fourth Prince didn't even need to use his brain to know that this dog servant wasn't telling the truth. If it weren't for something important, he wouldn't have been so absent-minded these past few days, constantly staring at him.
Su Peisheng closed his eyes, as if he was about to throw caution to the wind, and blurted out the words he had been thinking about for a long time.
“Master, you see, our little ancestor is getting older recently. Shouldn’t we start looking for a suitable partner for him?”
The Fourth Prince's expression changed, his eyes becoming distant and cold as he looked at Su Peisheng kneeling below, his face full of displeasure.
The book in his hand had long been thrown aside, and he stared coldly at Su Peisheng kneeling on the ground, the atmosphere in the room instantly dropping to freezing point.
Su Peisheng pressed his head tightly against the carpet. Damn it, he really deserved to die. He shouldn't have said those words at all. He was just asking for trouble.
That foul mouth.
Su Peisheng was filled with remorse.
He shouldn't have said those things; the little master should have said them.
Su Peisheng felt the sharp, piercing gaze upon him. If the Fourth Prince's eyes could kill, Su Peisheng would probably be collecting corpses by now.
Who told you about it?
Su Peisheng reacted quickly at this moment. He knew that if he had been any slower, he would have been in serious trouble and wouldn't have been able to get out of bed for half a month.
“This was my own idea; the young master didn’t mention it to me.”
Su Peisheng knew what his master wanted to hear at this moment.
Su Peisheng's anxiety finally died.
It seems my master is really in love. This is no little darling I've raised.
He clearly had a little wife on his hands, the kind of little wife who had to be pampered.
Su Peisheng is now absolutely certain that his little darling has no such intentions. Given his little darling's simple, foolish, and easily guessed mind, he would immediately detect it if he revealed even a little bit of his thoughts.
The little darling only cares about eating, drinking, and having fun; he hasn't even grasped this concept yet.
Su Peisheng was also unsure when his master had developed this idea.
Su Peisheng tried hard to recall where his master had changed over the years. If he had to say where he learned it, it must have been from His Highness the Crown Prince.
In this Forbidden City, only His Highness the Crown Prince, at that age, made his master understand that men could also enjoy pleasure together.
When Mingming was a child, his master had said that when Duofu grew up, he would find him the best consort in the Forbidden City.
Su Peisheng cursed the Crown Prince in his heart. If it weren't for his master, how could he have gone astray? If his master hadn't gone astray, how could he have suffered this undeserved disaster today?
The Fourth Prince looked at the back of the head on the ground, and tapped the nanmu wood table with his right fingertips, making a series of thumping sounds.
It was as if it had struck Su Peisheng's heart.
Su Peisheng was covered in sweat. Even though it was already a bit cold, he was sweating profusely. His master was becoming more and more terrifying.
He deserves to die, why did he have to go looking for death?
They thought he was being treated like a little emperor.
Su Peisheng waited anxiously for the Fourth Prince's decision, sweat dripping onto the soft blanket.
The Fourth Prince stared at Su Peisheng with an inexplicable look in his eyes. Suddenly, the thumping stopped, and Su Peisheng's heart jumped into his throat.
"Now that you know what I'm thinking, I'll teach you to do something."
Su Peisheng had no objection and nodded vigorously, agreeing repeatedly.
Regardless of what it was, he agreed beforehand, and later Su Peisheng was stunned.
He never knew that his master had such a dangerous and cunning side, and that he would use it on his little darling. How could he live up to his little darling's affection for him?
Su Peisheng was actually reluctant to do this, but thinking about his own backside, he gritted his teeth and accepted it.
Although he had no experience in this area, he had seen a lot of things related to pickling dregs, so he had some experience in this regard.
However, his master had high expectations; he actually wanted the little darling to fall in love with him on her own initiative, which was no easy task.
Su Peisheng knew that his little darling had not shown any interest in men.
The affection in his eyes when he looked at his master was so pure and innocent, like a younger brother looking at his older brother.
And he kept calling out "Fourth Brother," so isn't he the older brother?
Su Peisheng thought of the things his master had instructed him to do. He had actually resorted to underhanded tactics in this regard, fearing that his little darling might become aware of things and not like men, so he had to cultivate that from a young age.
How can he train someone like that?
Su Peisheng didn't have the ability to force that little tyrant. He was grateful as long as the little tyrant didn't cause him any trouble.
Su Peisheng left the study with a bitter face. He needed to find time to ask the Crown Prince's personal eunuch how the Crown Prince had contracted this disease.
