287 I’m Also The Fourth Prince’s Savior!
“But Grandmother, if we don’t try, how will we know?” Although Princess Ning Fu was discouraged by the old consort, she didn’t give up immediately. She looked up at her grandmother and continued to ask stubbornly, “Didn’t you say before that the current empress of the government wasn’t born noble, and that she’s just lucky that a government official took a fancy to her?!
I’m also the fourth prince’s savior!
Could it be that just because he’s a prince, he can repay kindness with ingratitude?”
“Don’t be unconvinced. Actually, I don’t know if you saving his life is a blessing or a curse!” The old consort pulled Princess Ning Fu out. When she heard that Princess Ning Fu was still unwilling to give up, she had no choice but to give her a wake-up call. “What kind of place is this? Look at the fourth prince’s sorry state. It’s obvious that he encountered something bad!
!!
But what can we encounter in the north? It’s nothing more than mountain bandits!
It would be fine if he, a dignified prince, was saved by you on the battlefield. If word got out, it would be a story of a beauty saving a hero. But what is this situation?
A prince had actually been captured by mountain bandits and tortured into such a sorry state. Even his arm looks like it had been crippled. It’s unknown if he can recover or not!
What kind of situation was this?
If I were the fourth prince, I might not care about the life-saving grace at all. It would be merciful enough not to kill us to silence us!
Therefore, Ning Fu, think about it carefully. Don’t dream about unrealistic things all day long!”
The old consort sighed and reached out to tousle the loose strands of hair on Princess Ning Fu’s temples. Then, she continued, “Forget it, forget it. If you don’t believe me, we can see how the fourth prince treats you when he wakes up later!
If you believe me, do as I say! We’ll have nothing to do with this!
With this favor, we can ask for other things, such as returning to the capital!
When we return to the capital, with the fact that you saved the fourth prince, his mother definitely won’t mistreat you. As long as you don’t think about things that you shouldn’t think about, and form a good relationship with the fourth prince and the others, you’ll be able to marry well!
“But if you mention marriage now, you’ll be making things difficult for the fourth prince and his mother. Will they agree to it?”
It was obvious that Princess Ning Fu was a little indignant.
However, she was used to listening to her grandmother’s instructions, so she didn’t retort and nodded.
The old consort wasn’t surprised by Princess Ning Fu’s unwillingness and shook her head slightly. She knew her granddaughter’s temper. Princess Ning Fu rarely listened to her persuasions, unless she suffered…
She could only take things slow!
On the other side, Pei Qian and Lu Ze set off from Cloud Mountain City with the mighty light cavalry guards and arrived at Duke Huai Yang’s ministry’s courtyard before dark.
The moment she saw Lu Ze, Princess Ning Fu subconsciously felt frightened. Thinking of her previous encounter, she wanted to scream in terror.
Of course, Princess Ning Fu wasn’t the only one who was scared out of her wits. The old consort also came out after receiving the news. When she found out that Lu Ze was the new General Wei Bei, she couldn’t help but faint in front of everyone…
After the commotion, they finally sent the old consort back to her room to rest. Princess Ning Fu, who had been entrusted to receive everyone, teared up. “We didn’t do anything to the fourth prince…”
“Princess, there’s no need to be nervous and afraid. We came over this time mainly to see the fourth prince, who you saved.” Upon seeing Princess Ning Fu like this, Pei Qian glanced at Lu Ze, who was standing beside him without saying a word, meaningfully. Then, he smiled and said, “Princess, please let us see him.”
At this point, how could Princess Ning Fu dare to say no?
She quickly stood up and almost bumped into the maidservant who came over to help her…
After a while, Lu Ze and Pei Qian were finally brought to the courtyard where the fourth prince was recuperating. She even personally brought them into the pavilion.
“He was lying on a snowdrift at the entrance of our courtyard. Butler Zhong told me this news. I wasn’t far from the door at that time, so I went over to take a look.
After going over, I realized that although that person looked very disheveled and the clothes on his body were very dirty, it couldn’t hide the luxuriousness of the materials.
Therefore, I wondered if he had been captured by the nearby mountain bandits.
Seeing that he was still alive, I asked Butler Zhong to help move him out of the courtyard and even hired a doctor to check on him.
The doctor said that the fourth prince was just a little traumatized and would recover after drinking some calming soup. His arm seems to have been broken, so the doctor treated it, but there’s no guarantee that he can recover completely.”
Princess Ning Fu told Lu Ze and Pei Qian what had happened. After explaining, she didn’t forget to explain that she had really not done anything.
“If you really didn’t do anything, why is the fourth prince having such a high fever now?” Although Princess Ning Fu said it sincerely, Pei Qian was clearly unconvinced at all. He looked at her seriously as he asked, “Princess, can you explain?”
“The doctor said that the fourth prince was extremely traumatized. Moreover, he hadn’t eaten for a long time! He was even beaten up by someone and was covered in injuries!
Previously, when he was in danger, he had to hold on to survive, but now that he realized that he had been saved and relaxed, he couldn’t suppress his illness anymore!
The doctor already prescribed a prescription and brewed medicine for him to drink!
Today, his situation is much better than when he was just saved yesterday! If you don’t believe me, you can ask the fourth prince when he wakes up!
Ask him if Duke Huai Yang’s ministry has mistreated him!”
Princess Ning Fu looked at Pei Qian. Although she was already furious, she didn’t dare to show any disrespect. After all, she also knew the relationship between Mr. Pei and the fourth prince!
If she really offended him, just as her grandmother had said, he could ignore the fact that she had saved the fourth prince’s life and attack her mercilessly!
“I see. But it seems that your doctor’s medical skills are not good enough! How long has it been? Why hasn’t the fourth prince woken up yet?” Pei Qian walked to the warm bed and lowered his head to size up the fourth prince, whose face was flushed. Then, he turned to look at Lu Ze. “Do you still remember the army’s method to reduce someone’s fever?”
