TV series: Daily life of male supporting role
Chapter 41: Step by Step, Time Travel, Big Mixed Stew: 4th Prince 01
When Yinzhen woke up again, he found himself back in Yonghe Palace. His mother, Concubine De, was still there, and he had not been purged by his fourth brother for participating in the fight for the throne.
He looked down at his still tender hands, thinking about the days when he was imprisoned in Yonghe Palace. Yinzhen felt extremely calm. He thought, Ruoxi should not have come to the Qing Dynasty yet, right?
Because of me, Ruoxi was unable to see her fourth brother for the last time. This is his regret as well as her fourth brother's.
"Zhen'er, you didn't go to the study today, but you're not feeling well?"
Yinzhen turned his head to look at the door, and a woman in palace dress walked in with a worried look on her face.
"Mother..." Yinzhen stepped forward and hugged the woman. He called out, his voice choking with sobs, "I miss you so much."
"Zhen'er, who bullied you?" When Concubine De heard the choked voice of her little Fourteenth, her first reaction was who bullied her precious son.
"No, no one bullied me." Yinzhen held back the tears in his eyes and looked at Concubine De with a forced smile.
Defei touched Yinzhen's little bald head and said, "You, don't keep anything in your heart. Your mother is here, and no one can bully you without me."
"Yeah." Yinzhen controlled his expression.
Yinzhen is only about ten years old now, and still has some childishness on his face. Defei looked at him pretending to be an adult and didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "How can you be like your fourth brother at such a young age?"
Yinzhen looked at Concubine De and suddenly asked, "Mother, do you regret giving Fourth Brother to Tong E'niang? Do you like Fourth Brother?"
Defei's body froze, not daring to look Yinzhen in the eye. "Who is talking nonsense in front of you? Your fourth brother is the flesh and blood of my belly, how could I not like him?"
Yinzhen knew that Defei gave the fourth brother to Tong E'niang in order to get promoted. One of the main reasons why she got the position of Defei was because of the fourth brother.
"No one told me anything. I just want to know, Mother, do you really treat Fourth Brother as your own child?"
Defei was repeatedly questioned by Yinzhen, and her temper flared up. She pushed Yinzhen away and said coldly, "What nonsense are you talking about!"
"If mother really cared about fourth brother, why didn't you treat him well when he came back, and even told me not to get close to him..."
"enough."
Before Yinzhen could finish his words, he was interrupted by Concubine De's angry voice, "I think your servants have second thoughts and dare to sow discord between us mother and son. Someone, come! Replace all the people in this palace for me."
"Mother!" Yinzhen stood up. "If you were in their place, you would have adopted the child out first. You are just guilty. If you really care about Fourth Brother, why do you avoid my questions?"
"You...you..." Defei was so angry that she pointed at Yinzhen and couldn't utter a complete sentence. After gasping for breath several times, Defei fainted.
"Miss!"
"Mother concubine."
The hostess of Yonghe Palace fainted, shocking everyone in the palace.
After a period of chaos, Concubine De was sent to bed to rest. Yinzhen knelt in front of the bed, waiting for Concubine De to wake up.
Zhuxi advised Yinzhen, "Fourteenth Prince, you should get up first. Concubine De will not blame you."
"It's my fault. I made Mother faint from anger. I will kneel here and wait for her to wake up."
Yinzhen insisted on kneeling and waiting for Concubine De to wake up, and no matter how others tried to persuade him, it was of no use.
As the sky gradually darkened, Concubine De slowly woke up.
Zhu Xi, who had been paying attention to Concubine De's condition, smiled happily when he saw Concubine De wake up, "My queen, you're awake!"
After kneeling for almost two hours, Yinzhen moved to the bedside and said, "Mother, you are awake."
Defei didn't want to see Yinzhen again, so she sent him away and told him not to come to Yonghe Palace to pay her respects in the next few days. She felt annoyed when she saw him.
Zhu Xi advised, "Your Majesty, please don't blame Fourteenth Prince. After you fainted, Fourteenth Prince has been kneeling beside your bed, waiting for you to wake up!"
Only then did Defei notice that Yinzhen was still kneeling. After hearing Zhuxi's words, Defei's anger subsided a little, and she asked someone to help him up.
"Mother, I know I was wrong."
"Humph! It's good that you admit your mistake. Go back and have a rest first. Come back to pay your respects tomorrow."
"Yes, kid, please leave."
Yinzhen stood up staggeringly, said goodbye to Concubine De, and limped back to his palace.
Seeing Yinzhen's unsteady legs and feet, Concubine De felt very distressed and asked Zhuxi to bring some of the best medicine to the Fourteenth Prince.
Yinzhen was not yet an adult and was still living in a side hall of Yonghe Palace. When Yinzhen returned to his residence, a servant applied medicine to him. Yinzhen knelt for two hours and his knees had already turned purple.
When Zhuxi came to deliver the medicine, he saw the bruises on Yinzhen's knees and felt very distressed.
After delivering the medicine to the Fourteenth Prince, Zhu Xi returned to report to Concubine De.
De Fei rubbed her aching temple and ordered Zhu Xi, "Zhu Xi, go and see if anyone has said anything inappropriate in front of the Fourteenth Prince recently. I want to know who is trying to alienate us from each other behind the scenes."
"Yes." Zhu Xi obeyed the order.
After Yinzhen went to bed, he fumbled in his bedside table and found a notebook with some things recorded on it.
Yinzhen looked at the contents of the book and thought about it.
Calculating the time, Ruoxi's sister has now become Bage's concubine. The day of the beauty pageant is approaching, and Ruoxi should be here soon too.
Ruoxi once told him that she was not from this era, she came from a world three hundred years later, and she traveled through time and space into Ruoxi's body because she had an argument with Mingyu and fell from the attic, so she possessed the original Ruoxi's body.
This time, Yinzhen did not intend to stop Ruoxi from coming. He wanted to protect Ruoxi well in this life and not let her die in depression.
He will prove to her that he is no worse than his fourth and eighth brothers, and that he will be her best choice.
It’s a pity that he is now just a powerless little prince, still living under the protection of Concubine De, and cannot bring any practical help to Ruoxi.
Now he has to plan his future path carefully.
The throne, this position was just so-so in his eyes. Several of his elder brothers died badly because of that position. The fourth brother worked hard for that position and finally died of exhaustion on the throne.
However, if Ruoxi likes the person sitting on the throne, it is not impossible for him to make some plans.
The eldest brother and the crown prince should still be fighting each other to the death, and several other princes can also expose their ambitions to their father in advance.
While his father is still alive, if they have any second thoughts, he can use his father's hand to crush the princes' chances of succeeding the throne.
As for the eighth brother and the fourth brother, he could keep them until Ruoxi came.
Yinzhen had a beautiful idea and thought that since he had the memories of his previous life, he would be able to complete his plan faster than others.
But the next day, when he passed by the palace road where several adult princes were walking after leaving court, he found something wrong.
The eldest brother no longer quarrels with the crown prince. The ninth brother is close to the tenth prince, but no longer close to the eighth brother.
How is this going?
