The mistress died of overwork, and after rebirth, she was bad at raising her cubs

The Fourth Prince didn't expect that he would get such a benefit without doing anything.

Immediately, the Fourth Prince looked at Prefect Liu and praised with satisfaction:

"You've worked hard, Prefect Liu. I never thought that this small Yundu Prefecture would have someone as capable as you."

"It's still early today, why don't you take me on an inspection tour with Prefect Liu? Prefect Liu can also inform me of the details of the matter, so that I can write to my father."

"Of course, this prince will not forget the contribution of Prefect Liu."

As the Fourth Prince spoke, he smiled and patted Prefect Liu on the shoulder to show his appreciation.

Although Magistrate Liu was still smiling, he was already rolling his eyes in his heart.

That sounds nice...

Let me tell the Fourth Prince the specific matters, and then the Fourth Prince will report to the Emperor?

That sounds very reasonable, but why not just say it directly and take away his credit?

Prefect Liu really wanted to "spit" at the Fourth Prince.

As expected, Brother Lu guessed it right!

But Brother Lu said that he would do whatever these big shots said in this matter.

Brother Lu is so smart. If he said that, it must be for his own good.

after all……

Before Brother Lu left, I told him that the person behind him was...

Soon, the imperial court received the memorial from the fourth prince.

In the memorial, the Fourth Prince first acted as if he was pitiful, and it seemed as if he was making a complaint.

He only said that although the journey was full of difficulties and dangers, he dared not forget his father's instructions and the safety of the people.

He then presented the specific details of the disaster relief, saying that thanks to his hard work, the disaster in Yundu Prefecture had been settled, so Emperor Jingren could rest assured.

After receiving this memorial, Emperor Jingren was so happy that he praised the Fourth Prince's ability in front of all the civil and military officials in the court.

Emperor Jingren praised the Fourth Prince, and the public opinion in the court also subtly changed.

Many ministers who had remained neutral in the court also spoke up at this time, praising the Fourth Prince for being worthy of being the Dragon Son and having extraordinary abilities, and saying that it was indeed a blessing for Dayong.

The implicit meaning of these words probably means that the Fourth Prince is regarded as the crown prince.

The obvious favoritism of these people immediately made the Eighth Prince, the Ninth Prince and others unable to sit still.

All along, the Fourth Prince has always played the role of a non-confrontational person in the court and has not been on good terms with any officials.

But now, these ministers who suddenly spoke for the Fourth Prince made the Eighth Prince and the Ninth Prince doubt their true background.

Do these ministers really think that the Fourth Prince is a good person, or have they already been pulled into his camp?

But no matter which one it is, it is not what the Eighth Prince and the Ninth Prince want to see.

First, if these people were already the Fourth Prince’s men, that would be enough to prove the Fourth Prince’s evil ambitions!

Secondly, if these ministers are not the Fourth Prince’s men, but are just praising the Fourth Prince sincerely, then this will pose a greater threat to them!

After all, it would be terrible if a prince who has won the hearts of the people of Yundu Prefecture also won the hearts of the ministers and the emperor!

Naturally, the Eighth Prince and the Ninth Prince's party were all a little depressed.

Didn't they expect that the Fourth Prince not only survived their pursuit, but also accomplished such a great thing?

However, the Eighth Prince and the Ninth Prince's party found it strange.

They had just received news that the Fourth Prince had clearly been delayed on the road for the past few days. How could he suddenly accomplish such a big thing so quietly?

Immediately, both sides were unwilling to give up and sent people to investigate.

Fighting against the Prince's Mansion.

Shen Qinglan was sitting under the newly built grape trellis in the yard, playing chess with Xie Shaoshang.

Xie Shaoshang had already taken off his mask, revealing his true face.

These days, under Shen Qinglan's treatment, the poison in Xie Shaoshang's body has been basically eliminated, and the biggest manifestation is on Xie Shaoshang's face.

The originally ugly face has now returned to its original state, white and smooth.

When even Shen Qinglan saw Xie Shaoshang who had regained his true appearance, he couldn't help but exclaim that he was so beautiful!

It is a kind of beauty that is not ordinary and does not distinguish between men and women.

It is like the bright moon or the brilliant stars. In short, it is a beauty that can easily captivate your mind at a glance.

Fortunately, although Shen Qinglan was amazed when he first saw it, he got used to it after seeing it for a long time.

The main reason is that other people are beautiful but don’t realize it, while this evil Shaoshang is beautiful and knows it.

During the short period of time when he was playing chess in front of him, this showy man had adjusted several postures in an attempt to show himself off.

"Hey! I lost again! It's really boring! I have tempted you so much, how can you still stand still and not pay any attention?"

Xie Shaoshang looked at the chessboard and saw that all his white pieces had been lost. He leaned back on the rattan chair in annoyance and glared at Shen Qinglan and started to complain.

For the first time, Xie Shaoshang began to doubt his own appearance.

It was obvious that when others saw him without the mask, they were all unable to walk!

But Shen Qinglan just looked at him like he was looking at a stone! It really hurt his self-esteem!

Shen Qinglan listened to Xie Shaoshang's words, looked up at him with amusement and said:

"Young Master Xie has a good appearance, but unfortunately his chess character is not good."

Commonly known as a bad chess player.

It was obvious that he would lose every time he played with her, but he always enjoyed pestering her to play with him.

Fight again and again after repeated failures, and fail again and again.

Shen Qinglan was beginning to admire Xie Shaoshang a little.

Xie Shaoshang was mocked by Shen Qinglan, but he was not angry. He just said nonchalantly:

"This young master's chess character is not good, but this young master has a wealth of information. Shen Qinglan, didn't you ask this young master to check the fourth prince's wife? This young master has found it! Do you want to know?"

At this moment, Xie Shaoshang's face was full of a look of "hurry up and beg me". Shen Qinglan laughed and thought for a moment before saying:

"She's pregnant. Whose child is it?"

As soon as Shen Qinglan opened his mouth, Xie Shaoshang widened his eyes and looked at Shen Qinglan with some disbelief.

A few days ago, Shen Qinglan specially asked him to check on the Fourth Prince's wife. He finally found out that the Fourth Prince's wife was pregnant, but Shen Qinglan had already known about it?

"You..." How do you know?

Shen Qinglan smiled and said, "You forgot, I'm a doctor."

The last time the Fourth Prince's wife and her companions came to Prince Zhan's Mansion, Shen Qinglan took the opportunity to give a gift and felt her pulse, and found it to be slippery.

But Shen Qinglan felt strange.

The Fourth Prince was clearly a eunuch. Not to mention getting a woman pregnant, he couldn't even have sex. So how did the Fourth Prince's wife get pregnant?

But one thing is obvious: the Fourth Prince's wife does not want to get rid of the child.

otherwise……

When she checked, the Fourth Prince's wife's pulse had been bad for more than three months. If they didn't want to save her, it would have been impossible for her to survive for three months.

Regardless of whether the Fourth Prince trusts the Fourth Prince's Consort or not, at least the Fourth Prince's Consort is someone close to the Fourth Prince, so Shen Qinglan wants to start with the Fourth Prince's Consort.

Since they had been opponents from the very beginning, it was natural that Shen Qinglan would not show any mercy to the Fourth Prince.

On the contrary, the same is true for the Fourth Prince.

The Fourth Prince has not yet made any move on the Zhan Palace. He just wants to use it to sit on the throne.

But once he comes to power, the first thing he will do is to get rid of him.

As for the illegal mining of the gold mine, it was not enough to bring down the Fourth Prince.

She had already checked and found out that the person who was now openly mining the gold mine was not the Fourth Prince, but an unknown little-known figure.

Therefore, it would be useless even if the matter was reported to the emperor. This is why Shen Qinglan did not let Marquis Jing'an take any action for the time being.

The Fourth Prince is extremely cunning. Shen Qinglan must have a plan that makes him completely unable to get up before she can act with peace of mind. Otherwise, it would be dangerous if he were to revive.

Upon hearing this, Xie Shaoshang curled his lips in dissatisfaction and said:

"I forgot you were a doctor, but you definitely wouldn't be able to guess who the Fourth Prince's concubine is!"
