In a corner of the Forbidden City, the warm spring sun shines through the sparse clouds and onto Li Gege's courtyard.

After listening to Gao Wuyong's detailed report, Yinzhen was overwhelmed with indescribable emotions. He thought of the pain and hardship that Li Gege had endured in order to give birth to the third prince, while he, as a father, had never seen this new life with his own eyes.

So he decided to go to Li Gege's residence immediately, and took Su Peisheng with him, walking briskly through the palace walls.

"Su Peisheng, do you think I have been negligent?" Yinzhen asked as he walked, with a hint of self-blame in his tone.

"I am very busy and concerned about the world, so it is inevitable that I may not be considerate enough, but the princesses and princes will understand the emperor's painstaking efforts." Su Peisheng answered respectfully, his eyes revealing his understanding and support for his master.

When they arrived in front of Li Gege's yard, a warm scene came into view. Li Gege was wearing a light and elegant palace dress, her face was filled with the radiance of motherhood, she was holding the Third Prince tightly and pacing slowly in the yard.

The third prince had a round face, fair skin, and eyes sparkling with curiosity. He was obviously amused by his mother. Li Gege pointed at the flowers and plants in the yard from time to time and told their stories in a gentle voice. Her motherly love was as warm and bright as the spring sun.

"Look, this is peach blossom, one of the most beautiful flowers in spring. In the future, you will also be like it, beautiful and strong." Li Gege's words are full of expectations for the future.

Beside this warm scene, a small figure stood in the corridor. It was the little prince Hong Pan. He held an enlightenment book tightly in his hand, and his eyes showed both the desire for knowledge and the deep yearning for maternal love.

Since the birth of the third prince, Hong Pan has felt unprecedented loneliness. He understands that his mother now focuses most of her energy on his younger brother, but he also firmly believes that as long as he studies hard and becomes excellent, his mother will pay more attention to him.

Today, Hongpan finally finished memorizing the article assigned by the teacher, and he was so happy that he wanted to run to tell his mother the good news.

However, when he walked to the corridor and saw the warm scene between his mother and brother, his steps stopped involuntarily.

He stood there, looking at the picture, feeling mixed emotions, including love for his brother and helplessness about his own situation.

……

On a spring afternoon, the sun gently fell on a corner of the Forbidden City. Yinzhen finished his busy court affairs and inexplicably felt an urge to visit the backyard. He slowly stepped into the small courtyard where Li Gege lived, and Su Peisheng followed closely behind him, his footsteps light and silent.

Inside the courtyard, there was a peaceful and harmonious atmosphere. Princess Li, wearing a light and elegant palace dress, was walking slowly among the flowers with the Third Prince in her arms.

The little prince's skin was as white as porcelain, and his chubby little face looked even cuter in the sun. He stared with his big black eyes, looking at the world around him curiously, and occasionally letting out crisp laughter.

Yinzhen stood at the threshold, his eyes deeply attracted by this scene. He watched quietly, with an indescribable tenderness and emotion in his heart. Seeing this, Su Peisheng hurriedly stepped forward and announced in a low voice: "The fourth prince has arrived."

This gentle call was like thunder, waking Li Gege, who was immersed in happiness, up suddenly. She turned around quickly and saw Yinzhen standing not far away, and her face couldn't help but blush.

She quickly straightened her dress and bowed respectfully: "I pay my respects to the Fourth Beile. May the Fourth Beile be blessed."

Yinzhen stepped forward quickly and helped Li Gege up personally, his eyes full of tenderness and appreciation: "Get up, you are weak, no need to be polite." His eyes then fell on the little prince in Li Gege's arms, his heart filled with excitement and joy.

He looked at the child carefully and secretly admired in his heart: This child is really born strong, much stronger than Honghui when he was born.

"You really took a lot of effort to raise the child so well." Yinzhen praised sincerely.

Upon hearing this, Li Gege quickly waved her hands and smiled, "I'm just doing my duty. How can I deserve the praise of the Fourth Prince?" Her voice was gentle and humble, but her eyes sparkled with maternal radiance.

Yinzhen knew how difficult it was, so he gently patted Li Gege's hand to comfort and encourage her: "I see your efforts. This child will become a promising person in the future."

Then, the two of them started a conversation about the little prince. Li Gege happily shared every detail of the little prince's growth: when he learned to roll over, when he started babbling, when he smiled for the first time... Every detail made her feel extremely happy and satisfied.

Yinzhen listened patiently, nodding and smiling, and asking questions from time to time. Their conversation was full of warmth and sweetness.

However, in this harmonious atmosphere, Hong Pan in the corridor seemed particularly lonely. His small figure stood in the shadows, silently watching the scene, with complex emotions flashing in his eyes. But he did not disturb this rare tranquility and happiness, but just silently blessed his mother and brother.

The spring sunshine continues to shine in the yard, making this small world even warmer and more beautiful.
