I Woke the Sick and Disabled Prince on Our Wedding Night

293 Repaying Kindness With Ingratitude

“Then leave it to him.” Lu Ze put down the porridge bowl in his hand and looked up at Pei Qian. “However, he only has some bailiffs from the county governor’s residence, so he doesn’t have to worry about the safety of Cloud Mountain City! He just needs to find the whereabouts of those bandits.

Moreover, the attack on the fourth prince is a serious matter, so things can’t be delayed!

“Since County Governor Tang is so capable, it probably won’t take him more than a month. Let’s give him ten days!”

As Pei Qian nodded, he couldn’t help but laugh. “County Governor Tang went for wool but came home shorn?”

Anyone could tell what County Governor Tang’s ultimate goal was.

It wasn’t to find the whereabouts of the mountain bandits, but to obtain control over the defense of Cloud Mountain City.

Obviously, this wasn’t County Governor Tang’s own plan. Instead, the person backing County Governor Tang wanted to use County Governor Tang’s identity to control the entrance and exit of Cloud Mountain City.

“The news that the fourth prince came to investigate the military affairs in the north has already been released. Naturally, there will be people who can’t sit still anymore.” After Lu Ze stood up and walked to the side to wash his hands, he wiped his hands with a soft handkerchief as he said, “Let’s use this ruse too.”

Just as Lu Ze had expected, after County Governor Tang accepted this hot potato, the person who had to deal with the mess wasn’t him, but Song Minghe, who was backing him.

“Pei Qian!” Song Minghe gritted his teeth as he turned the chessboard on the table upside down. “Do you really think you can thwart my plans with this method?

Dream on!”

So what if he was the fourth prince’s cousin? Even biological brothers would turn against each other sometimes, let alone cousins! Besides, the Pei family…

With Lin Suisui taking care of the fourth prince’s condition, he recovered to the point where he could lean against the bed to drink porridge and medicine in just two to three days.

Of course, Princess Ning Fu took good care of the fourth prince. Ever since the fourth prince woke up, she had not left his courtyard at all.

Lin Suisui came over every day when the fourth prince was still unconscious, but after he woke up, she avoided him. In addition, with Princess Ning Fu taking care of him, it saved her the trouble of meeting him.

Seeing that the fourth prince was getting better, Lin Suisui mentioned to Lu Ze that she wanted to leave.

After all, with the fourth prince’s recovery, even Duke Huai Yang’s ministry’s doctor could deal with the situation easily.

However, this good idea was disrupted by the fourth prince’s instructions.

“I heard that the person who treated me this time was found by my cousin?” The fourth prince leaned against the bed without tying his hair. With his illness, he looked even more fragile and helpless. Princess Ning Fu, who was standing at the side, was a little mesmerized by his appearance.

“It’s Mr. Gu’s wife.” Before Pei Qian could reply, Princess Ning Fu, who was standing beside him, stepped forward and replied with a smile, “Mrs. Liu is really a saint for saving you. Speaking of which, you were saved because of your own luckiness.”

“Why haven’t I seen her before?” The fourth prince didn’t look at Princess Ning Fu. Instead, he looked at Pei Qian. “I have to thank her in person for saving my life.”

Without thinking too much about it, Pei Qian rejected, “What a coincidence. Gu Erlang had business to attend to, so he had to return to the city. Seeing that your condition is stable, I allowed the couple to return to the city together. They’re probably on the way back now!

“Fourth Prince, don’t be too anxious. After you recover, you guys can meet again in Cloud Mountain City.”

“I haven’t recovered yet, so how can the doctor leave just like that?” As soon as Pei Qian said this, the fourth prince’s expression immediately changed. He looked at Pei Qian with dissatisfaction and his tone clearly became much unpleasant as he said, “If there’s anything Gu Erlang needs to deal with, he can do it himself. Why did he bring that woman who knows medicine away with him?

What? Is he unwilling to let her stay here to take care of me?”

Pei Qian glanced at Princess Ning Fu, who was standing at the side. Without saying anything else, he turned around and instructed Qian He to go out and deliver the news.

Lu Ze had just helped Lin Suisui into the carriage when Qian He caught up with them.

After hearing Qian He’s intentions, if not for Lin Suisui reaching out to pull him, Lu Ze would have rushed out and beaten the fourth prince up.

“Even the slightest impatience will ruin a big plan!” Lin Suisui grabbed Lu Ze’s sleeve desperately and coaxed in a low voice, “Don’t worry, don’t worry. I’m just going over to check. I’ll be fine.”

“You didn’t read the pages of the confession I gave you previously, right?” After Lu Ze took a few deep breaths, he barely suppressed the dissatisfaction and anger in his heart. Then, he turned to look at Lin Suisui and said, “The fourth prince’s mistresses all had one thing in common before he took a fancy to them.”

“What?” Lin Suisui looked at Lu Ze in confusion.

“He likes to snatch other people’s wives!” Lu Ze lowered his head and gritted his teeth as he said word by word, “No, I have to go with you!”

Before Lin Suisui could recover from this news, the carriage carrying them had already returned to the courtyard.

Lu Ze accompanied Lin Suisui all the way to the fourth prince’s courtyard. Unexpectedly, Princess Ning Fu was waiting for them at the door. When she saw Lin Suisui, although Princess Ning Fu looked apologetic, Lin Suisui didn’t ignore the flash of schadenfreude in her eyes.

“It’s all my fault. When the fourth prince asked, I told him your name. The fourth prince felt that you were his savior, so he wanted to meet you.”

Moreover, what the fourth prince is worried about is reasonable. Madam Liu, your medical skills are really amazing. Not to mention in our northern region, even in the entire empire, there are probably very few people who can compare to you!

Therefore…”

“So you repaid kindness with ingratitude?” Before Princess Ning Fu could finish speaking, Lu Ze interrupted her impatiently. “Princess, I’ve warned you before not to think that other people are that stupid!

You’re already thinking of burning the bridge after crossing it?

“Princess, have you thought about what to do after you tear down this bridge?”

“I really didn’t do it on purpose. Besides, I did it for Madam Liu’s own good! It’s such an honor to be able to treat the fourth prince!

Moreover, the fourth prince said that he wanted to see Madam to express his gratitude to her.

This is a good thing. How did it become repaying kindness with ingratitude?”

Princess Ning Fu panicked under Lu Ze’s gaze, but she quickly reacted and smiled at Lin Suisui as she retorted, “Don’t misunderstand my good intentions!”
