The Fourth Master's Dog

Concubine Tong walked behind and reached the courtyard in a few steps. She watched the Fourth Prince running towards Duofu, looking like a little meat bun moving, so cute.

But the ground was still slippery, even though the snow had been cleared.

Seeing the Fourth Prince running around the palace, Concubine Tong had a hint of worry in the corner of her eyes.

Fortunately, the maid who was taking care of the Fourth Prince hurriedly chased after him, preventing the Fourth Prince from falling.

"Zhen'er, don't be so hasty. What if you fall down?"

The Fourth Prince turned around, and with his two round, puffy eyes, he looked at Concubine Tong with helplessness and a hint of pleading.

"Okay, I won't blame you this time. If you do this again next time, I will drag all the servants around you away and give them a beating."

Concubine Tong deliberately put on a stern face, and looked at the Fourth Prince's expression which showed that he knew he was wrong, then she smiled a little.

"Thank you, mother. I won't dare to do that next time."

The Fourth Prince answered softly, looked at Concubine Tong with both eyes, turned to the right to look at Xiao Duofu, and then turned back to look at Concubine Tong with both eyes pitifully.

When Concubine Tong saw the pitiful look on Fourth Prince's face, she pressed down the corners of her eyes and mouth and tried not to smile.

"Go ahead, play inside. It's cold outside."

"Thank you, mother, you are the best."

The Fourth Prince quickly ordered the eunuch to carry little Duofu into the house.

As soon as he entered the house, Duofu saw many charcoal braziers placed inside, with charcoal burning on them, which was very warm.

The palace maid Qingmu placed Duofu on the carpet, walked forward, approached Concubine Tong, and reported.

"My lady, this is the eunuch who is responsible for taking care of the pet master. Although he is young, he is very experienced and has been taking care of this pet since birth."

Little Duofu, who was standing nearby, had already crawled in front of the Fourth Prince, wagging his slightly curled tail and calling in a baby voice.

"Little meat bun, you are honored to be promoted to my shit shoveler. Your dog master has arrived, come and serve him.

You must love me more, provide me with good food and drink, and never let me suffer any injustice."

Concubine Tong looked in the direction of the call and saw Duofu.

It has two black, round eyes, a furry tail that is held high, a petite body, and is so adorable that anyone who sees it would want to hug it.

Indeed, the Fourth Prince had already held Duofu in his arms, rubbing its round little head with both hands. The little puppy was still calling out in a childish voice in the Fourth Prince's arms.

"Okay, let's arrange it this way. Wait a minute, just go and take care of it. I trust you."

Concubine Tong said casually, waving her hand and asking the Fourth Prince to come over here.

When the Fourth Prince saw his mother waving at him, he quickly ran over with Duofu in his arms.

"Mother, look how cute it is, so furry and well behaved."

Concubine Tong reached out and touched Duofu's head, then nodded in agreement.

"Indeed, she is very cute."

Concubine Tong touched Duofu's head twice, and then asked.

"Have you thought of a name, Zhen'er?"

"Let me think about the name. How about Duofu? I've been practicing Chinese characters recently, and I've come up with the two characters Duo and Fu, which means a lot of blessings."

"Mother, what do you say?"

"Good luck, good luck."

Concubine Tong repeated it twice in her mouth, and a hint of melancholy appeared on her face inadvertently.

The palace maid Qinglan beside her saw that her queen was not very happy and hurriedly tried to persuade her.

"Your Highness, this name is great. It means you will have many children and great blessings. The blessings for you and the Fourth Prince are still to come."

Those close to her have always known how much Concubine Tong wanted a child of her own.

That was why she allowed Uya to give birth to the child safely, and asked the emperor to promote her and move her to another palace, so as to prevent the Fourth Prince from having any contact with her.

Treating the Fourth Prince as her own child, Concubine Tong now gives all her motherly love to him and is very caring and loving to him.

As Concubine Tong's personal maids, Qingmu and Qinglan had served her since she was a child and understood her heartache best. Having no children for many years had become a scar in her heart.

"Okay, okay, let's call him Duofu, and let's call him Duoduo."

Concubine Tong heard the persuasion of those around her and felt the worried eyes of the servants.

Finally, she sighed, thinking that fate had not yet arrived, and touched her belly. She looked up at the smiling face of the Fourth Prince and Duofu's cute little appearance, and her mood gradually became clear, and she responded softly.

"Duoduo, Duoduo, your name is Duofu, and your nickname is Duoduo, do you know that?"

When the Fourth Prince heard that his mother agreed, he spoke seriously to Duofu.

"You must listen to me from now on. I am your master. As long as you listen to me, I will definitely treat you well."

When Concubine Tong heard the Fourth Prince's childish voice, the sadness in her heart gradually disappeared and a smile inadvertently appeared on the corners of her mouth.

"Zhen'er, do you understand?"

"Of course I understand, mother. Look, it's wagging its tail. It's responding to me."

The Fourth Prince touched Duofu's head and answered in a childish voice.

Duofu looked at his stupid poop-scooper, who wanted to be his master. He was the Fourth Prince's dog master, huh.

He shouted at the Fourth Prince twice, thinking he was being fierce, but the voice that came out was even more childish than the Fourth Prince's.

"Woof woof, woof woof"

"Mother, look, look, Duoduo is responding to me."

"Okay, my Zhen'er is the smartest. Yes, Duoduo is responding to you."

Seeing that Concubine Tong was smiling, the personal maid and the old nanny put aside their worries and accompanied the Empress and smiled.

The palace maid Qinglan at the side looked at the empress and smiled, then continued to coax her.

"My queen, look, our Fourth Prince is so cute."

The Fourth Prince was holding Duofu when his stomach suddenly growled. He saw his mother and the others were looking over his way.

He immediately used Duofu as a shield.

"Mom, Duoduo is hungry. It was Duoduo's stomach that was growling just now."

The slight melancholy in Chengqian Palace was also blown away by the embarrassed look of the Fourth Prince because he was not hungry.

"Yes, mother got it. It's Duoduo who's hungry, not Zhen'er. Mother will ask someone to bring him food.

Qingmu, wait a minute, order a few more dishes that the Fourth Prince likes, and also order a few more suitable ones for Duoduo."

Concubine Tong was sitting on the couch in the palace, her back leaning against the pillow, the smile on her face no longer concealed.

She drank the freshly brewed scented tea on the small coffee table next to the couch, and watched the Fourth Prince and Duofu playing nearby.

As soon as Concubine Tong finished speaking, Qingmu walked out of the room and looked at his wife with a smile that he hadn't shown for a long time.

His voice unconsciously carried a hint of briskness as he instructed the eunuchs outside the courtyard about the dishes the masters would eat today, as well as Duofu's dinner.

The eunuch outside the door responded with a smile on his face.

"Sister Qingmu, Your Majesty, you are in a good mood today, right? We were outside and heard laughter coming from the palace."

Aoki replied to him in a good mood,

"What are you asking? Hurry up and serve dinner. The Fourth Prince is hungry."

The eunuch outside the palace, Xiao Lizi, had a smile on his face. He knew that Qingmu was in a good mood and replied to him.

The queen's mood won't be too bad. If the master is in a good mood, the life of the servants will be better.

"Slave, go right away."

After saying this, he hurriedly took the other two eunuchs out of Chengqian Palace.

The scene changed and turned to the palace.

Duofu, who was crying in the Fourth Prince's arms, forgave the Fourth Prince's shielding behavior when he heard that it was time for dinner and he wanted to have a snack.

He touched his stomach with his two paws and felt hungry. It was time for dinner. He was excited all over, and his four paws moved around in the arms of the Fourth Prince, as if he was about to get off.

Sure enough, things are different when you have someone powerful enough. The first thing to change is the food.

As the saying goes, the most indispensable things in life are food, clothing, shelter and transportation.

Now Duofu's meals have begun to be upgraded, and next they will probably have nice-looking clothes.

The warm little bed replaced the cold iron cage.

Now he has a poop-scooper, and someone will take him away in the future. Why does it feel like he has reached the peak of his life all of a sudden?

Here, there will be no academic pressure, future employment pressure, or pressure to continue the family line.

As long as he pleases his owner, he will have everything.

There are houses, cars and people.

The house is an old brand of the Forbidden City in Beijing. It is world-famous and everyone knows it. Moreover, even in modern times, no matter how rich you are, you cannot live in it.

Not to mention cars, they are the two legs of pure labor, they are safe and environmentally friendly, and can be repaired and upgraded by yourself. Most importantly, they are free.

People? There are a lot of people following him, providing him with food, clothing, housing and transportation, and they are very conscious.

The Fourth Prince looked at Duofu who was moving around in his arms, with a look on his face as if he had discovered new evidence. His little eyebrows were raised, and he looked very proud.

"Mother, Duoduo must be very hungry. As soon as he heard that mother was going to serve food, he started to move."

Concubine Tong, who was half leaning on the couch, saw the Fourth Prince's raised eyebrows and had a happy expression on her face, with her eyes and eyebrows smiling.

"Well, maybe Duoduo is hungry. Wait a minute, feed Duoduo a little."

The Fourth Prince listened to his mother's teasing, his little face turning redder little by little, but he still pretended to be serious.

"Mother, I am not really hungry right now. I am just a little hungry."

Concubine Tong, standing by, could no longer hold back and let out a clear and pleasant laugh.

"Mother knows, Zhen'er, you're not hungry, it's just Duoduo who is hungry, and I'm a little hungry with Zhen'er."

Outside the palace, a question was suddenly heard, but the words came in before the person entered.

"Cousin, what happened that made you laugh like that?"

Kangxi was seen walking in with his legs lifted, followed by Liang Jiugong, the chief eunuch who served Kangxi personally.

Imperial Concubine Tong looked at the servants at the palace gate with a hint of anger on her face and a hint of anger in her tone.

"Why didn't you even inform me that the emperor was coming? What's the point of keeping you around?"

Kangxi had already walked into the palace and sat on the other side of the couch, while holding Concubine Tong who was about to pay her respects, with a gentle tone.

"Cousin, don't be angry. I didn't tell them to report it. I haven't told you what made you laugh. I haven't seen you smile like this for a long time."

Liang Jiugong, who was standing nearby, quickly took the tea prepared by Qinglan, placed it on the small tea table next to Kangxi, and hurriedly explained.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I didn't let anyone pass the message because I wanted to see you sooner."

Hearing this, the anger on Concubine Tong's face disappeared, and she spoke in a light and joyful voice.

"Cousin Emperor, please try it. This is the newest Lu'an Guapian you like."

After listening to it, Kangxi picked up the teacup, smelled a light and pleasant tea fragrance, then lowered his head, took a sip, and praised.

"It tastes good. My cousin has some good tea here. It tastes really good."

Hearing Kangxi's praise, Concubine Tong showed shyness on her face, and her whole face was flushed, which was very beautiful, and made Kangxi on the side stunned.

Although Concubine Tong is a Manchu lady, she has the charm of a Jiangnan woman. She is delicate and frail, and looks fragile, which makes people can't help but pamper and cherish her more. Now her face is slightly red and full of bloom, which is really dazzling.

"Cousin Emperor, please don't make fun of me. Look at the little puppy in the Fourth Prince's arms. It's them who made me laugh."

The Fourth Prince walked over with his two fat little legs, holding Duoduo in his arms, and hurried over to pay his respects, his tone filled with joy.

The Fourth Prince hasn't seen the Emperor for a while. Today, not only did he receive great blessings, but he also got to see the Emperor. The little boy's face was full of smiles.

"Your Highness, I pay my respects to you, Father. Your Highness, please take a look at the gift that my mother gave me. Do you think it is nice?"

Kangxi looked at Duofu in the Fourth Prince's arms, then looked at his own Fourth Prince, and couldn't help laughing.

The two are exactly the same, both have a chubby body, chubby paws, and two big eyes. The four eyes are staring at him intently, making him look very good.

After hearing Concubine Tong's explanation that the Fourth Prince was hungry but was too embarrassed to admit it and insisted that it was because of this little puppy Duofu that he was hungry, he could not hold back the smile on his face and burst into laughter.

When Concubine Tong saw that the emperor was very pleased, she also seemed very happy. Her eyebrows were curved, her eyes became crescent-shaped, and her whole face was filled with smiles.

"Cousin Emperor, our Fourth Prince is indeed so adorable."
