Chapter 68: Taking Care

  Yun's punishment of kneeling was naturally known in the main hall.

  However, Fu Jin did not come to rescue him.

  At first, Ye Zao was punished to kneel down, and Fu Jin still came to rescue him.

  Nowadays Yun's family is like this, Madame Fu thought of calling out Li to vent her anger, but she refused to come. Secondly... even she herself also resented Yun's family.

  Although it was Madame Li who performed the prenatal massage, now that Fourth Master is treating Madame Li so coldly, this attitude might not necessarily be directed at Yunxiang alone.

  She's a troublemaker, what a handful!

  However, Fu Jin didn't plan to let Yun Shi be tortured to death just like that, after all, she had to suffer a bit.

  After this incident, Yun's days became even more difficult.

  She came back and had a high fever, so the maids had no choice but to go to the main courtyard to report it. Furen called for the imperial physician to come and take a look.

  The imperial physician said it was just a chill and would be all right, so afterwards the empress did not summon any more doctors.

  Mr. Yun was cold one moment and hot the next, his knee aching so badly that he couldn't sleep all night.

  She thought that when dawn broke, she could invite Fourth Master over and have him take a look at Li Shi's viciousness.

  Unfortunately, Fourth Master returned from the palace early this morning and went straight to the main hall.

  The lady had been expecting the fourth master to come, but she also knew that at this time, he came with a purpose, and it was not just to see her.

  As expected, Fourth Master's face didn't look good.

  The empress's heart skipped a beat. Wasn't it because of yesterday's matter? Although it was Li Shi who did it, but this empress didn't appear either, which wasn't right.

  The lady thought that if the fourth master was unhappy about this, she would compromise a bit.

  Fourth Master waved his hand: "Fu Jin, sit down, I have something to say to you."

  The imperial concubine was taken aback for a moment, then nodded and sat down below the Fourth Master.

  "Father wants to rush to Henan immediately, departing this afternoon, you hurry and arrange." Fourth Master said.

  "Is it? Is something going on over there? Are you going by yourself or following the prince?" Fu Jin hastily asked.

  "The prince is not going, I and third brother are going." Fourth brother refused to say what's the matter, but it was obviously an urgent matter.

  "Yes, may I ask how long will Master be away? Should we bring someone along? The Geng family is good, and the Ye family can also come along." Madam Fu was very magnanimous.

  "This time, don't bring anyone." Fourth Master frowned: "Fu Jin, this time I'm away, it'll be at least half a month, or two to three months. The matters of the backyard will be entrusted to you. I don't want anything to happen in the backyard again. Can you do that?"

  Fourth Master became serious, and Madame naturally did not dare to be ambiguous. She quickly got up: "Your concubine will definitely do it, so that Master has no worries."

  "Grandfather still trusts you, I hope you won't disappoint him." Fourth Master's gaze was as sharp as a knife, and with just one glance at Madame Fu, he made her whole body stiffen.

  She was very clear in her mind that Li's affair had been put behind them.

  Even if I suspected her, I didn't plan on dealing with it.

  But if she is caught by Siye again in the future, it's likely that... even death from illness is possible.

  "I will definitely do my best." Fu Jin bowed her head humbly and respectfully.

  Fourth Master stood up: "Mm, I'll head back to the front yard first. You have people prepare well." He said and lifted his foot to go to the front yard.

  Back in the front yard, Su Peisheng was busy sorting things out.

  Fourth Master called for Ye Zao to be summoned.

  The leaves were busy in the front yard, and they knew that the fourth master was going out on a business trip.

  Just don't know what to bring her?

  "Is everything all right, sir? Are you going out?" Ye Zao asked after greeting him.

  "Ah, come here." Fourth Master tossed aside the thing in his hand and stretched out his own.

  "Where is grandfather going?"

  "This time I won't take you to Henan. It's hard work over there. Next time we go out, I'll bring you along." Fourth Master said with a tone of coaxing a child.

  "Thank you, sir. How long will you be gone?" Ye Zao looked pitiful, with a look that said "I'll miss you when you're gone".

  Fourth Master smiled: "I don't know how long you've been walking, but you're fine in the mansion. If there's anything, just call someone to say it in the front yard."

  "Yes, I know. Is Master leaving today?" Ye Zao looked at him, Fourth Master was in a hurry.

  "Uh-huh, we're leaving this afternoon. I called you here to tell you to stay put and not get involved in the things going on in the backyard." Fourth Master scratched her nose.

  Ye Zao was stunned for a moment, really stunned for a moment.

  What does this mean?

  Don't let her take sides? The thing is, she seems to have already taken a stand... at least on the surface.

  However, Fu Jin's team is not doing well.

  "Maybe... but... Furen is the master's wife after all." Ye Zao was truly at a loss for words, Fourth Master was being too indulgent towards her, wasn't he?

  "Ah, I know, you're a clever one, just keep your wits about you and that's all. Just mind your own business, don't stir up trouble or get involved." This way, no matter how they fought, she would be less affected.

  Ye Zao nodded vaguely.

  It wasn't until Fourth Master was driven out that it felt somewhat unreal.

  Isn't this too fast?

  Su Peisheng was almost done with his busy work, and after he had finished collecting and reporting what needed to be collected and reported, Fourth Master asked: "Can the fetus of the Permitted clan's child be saved?"

  Su Peisheng was taken aback: "The imperial physician examined her before and said that the fetal position is stable. What's wrong?"

  "Yeah, being able to give birth safely is also a bit of good fortune for her." Fourth Master didn't deliberately shield her.

  However, Fu Jin protected her. There was the matter of Li Shi's miscarriage before, and this time with Xu Shi's pregnancy, Fu Jin dared not let her miscarry again.

  "You go and give orders, take care of things at home as they should be. I'll be gone for a while, don't want anything to happen." Fourth Master waved his hand.

  After some thought, he added another sentence: "Heat up, and don't let the ice in various places be less." When saying this, of course, he was thinking of that little fox.

  She has a slender figure and is afraid of the cold, so she must also be afraid of the heat.

  Su Peisheng was taken aback, hastily responding, thinking to himself, this is too obvious. In various places... tsk, in previous years, it wasn't uncommon for there to be no ice blocks in the princess's residence either! Fourth Master is... almost directly pointing it out!

  What is on Siye's mind now, if not Li Cefu and Ye Guniang?

  Li Cefujin can take care of herself, isn't it that Ye Guniang is not good at taking care of herself? Plus, in terms of temperament, Ye Guniang needs more care.

  So Su Peisheng went to find Su Wanfu.

  Su Wanfu met Su Peisheng and hastily called out to his master: "Master, what are your orders?"

  "Uh, I'm actually here to instruct you, other things, what was said earlier is almost done. There's one more thing, in the Jin Yu Pavilion, take care of it. Su Peisheng looked at him: "If something happens in the backyard, just watch out, even if something happens, wait for Master to come back and deal with it."

  Su Wanfu was taken aback: "This... this Jin Yu Pavilion, is it that important?"

  He certainly knows what this means, this infighting in the backyard, who cares about that?

  Ye's status is low, if someone calculates her, it's likely that they can directly kill her and settle the matter.

  Nowadays, "master" means that even if something goes wrong, you still have to protect them?

  "You're not just serving the master, can't you see? Be clever, it won't hurt. Don't become someone who nobody looks up to! Being a concubine doesn't count for much, but she has connections!" Su Peisheng pointed upwards and slowly walked back.
