The Iceberg Prince was teased by me

Chapter 212 Are you three siblings in more danger?

"Okay, I'll take you there!"

After saying that, Asu turned around and asked a few maids to go to the front yard to busy themselves first, and then took Ji Yunchu all the way to where the princess was.

Yuhua Garden.

When Ji Yunchu arrived at the courtyard, she saw the Fourth Princess looking worried in the pavilion. When she approached, she could hear her sighing heavily.

"Princess, Princess, Miss Ji is here!" Xiao Tao, who was standing in the pavilion, saw her coming and walked happily to her to remind her.

"The Queen's sister-in-law is here?"

The fourth princess murmured to herself in confusion, and turned her head to look towards the gate of the courtyard. When she saw that it was Ji Yunchu who came, she stood up and ran over, hugged him, and cried sadly.

Ji Yunchu was confused by her action and just stood there letting her vent.

The two of them stayed in this position for more than a quarter of an hour. The fourth princess finally stopped crying. She was about to wipe her tears with her sleeves in embarrassment. Ah Su quickly took out his handkerchief and handed it to her: "Princess, this is a spare new handkerchief. Please use it."

The fourth princess took the handkerchief, wiped her tears, and then wiped her nose before putting it back in Ah Su's hand. "Throw it away. I'll have someone send you a new one later!"

"Yes!" After Asu agreed, he left first.

Seeing that people's emotions had stabilized, Ji Yunchu asked, "Princess, we have been standing for so long, are you tired?"

The fourth princess hummed softly, loosened the hug and pulled Ji Yunchu back to the pavilion to sit down. Then she said to Xiao Tao beside her, "Go to the kitchen and bring some tea and snacks."

"Yes, I'll go right away!" Xiao Tao took the order and left.

The fourth princess looked around to make sure there were no other servants around before she sighed and said, "Emperor..."

"Stop, Princess, you should just call me Miss Ji or Yunchu. I can't bear you to call me that." When Ji Yunchu heard her calling her like that again, she felt embarrassed and hurried to stop her.

"Then I'll call you Yun Chu!" The princess was not surprised by her reaction and nodded.

Ji Yunchu hummed softly, but seeing that the Fourth Princess was in a bad mood, she couldn't ask the question she wanted to find out, so she had to start by trying to relieve her depression, "Princess, why did you cry just now? Were you bullied by your two brothers?"

The fourth princess shook her head, "No, my royal brothers didn't bully me, it's my father who is seriously ill, and my eldest brother said that it's not appropriate for me to go back to the palace to visit him now, and I should stay in the mansion obediently.

But I am really worried about my father's condition. Emperor, Yunchu, can you help me find out how my father is doing now?"

"Don't worry. I heard from your eldest brother last night that he is fine, just unconscious. I believe that Doctor Yang will be able to cure him soon!"

"Really?" Hearing Ji Yunchu's calm tone, the Fourth Princess' worries were indeed alleviated a lot, but she still asked seriously.

Ji Yunchu nodded, "It's true, Princess, don't worry too much. What you should be most concerned about right now is that your father is ill. Will you three siblings be in greater danger?"

The fourth princess was silent: This matter is really worth pondering. Now that the emperor is ill and there is no leader, those ambitious people are probably eyeing that position covetously, and the eldest and second brothers are being attacked from all sides.

Thinking of this, she suddenly realized that her two brothers had left the house early in the morning, and more than two hours had passed, but they had not returned yet. She was instantly frightened by her own guess and immediately became anxious: "Yun Chu, did my brother say last night when he would be back home today?"

"No, but with his intelligence, I believe he will come back safely. Don't worry!"

At this time, Xiao Tao had already brought tea and snacks to the pavilion. Ji Yunchu took the teapot from her hand and took the initiative to pour tea for the Fourth Princess, "Princess, have a cup of tea and relax first!"

The fourth princess took the teacup, took a sip and put the tea down.

Ji Yunchu saw that she still looked troubled, and he didn't want to beat around the bush, so he simply diverted her attention, "Princess, when your brother came back last night, he told me some things about the late queen. I heard that the late queen had a lot of dowry when she got married, which was priceless. Is that true?"

"It's true. I heard my father say it before. However, after the death of the mother and son, all the dowry was locked in the private vault of Fengwu Palace. They said that when I get married, all the dowry will be given to me as a dowry."

As the fourth princess spoke, tears welled up in her eyes again. "Not long after my second brother and I were born, our mother died of illness. I heard from the old people in the palace that our mother suffered a lot when she was sick. She accidentally fell into a pond in winter and was rescued after a long time. The cold water froze her body and she had a high fever for three days and three nights before she slowly got better. But it also left a root of the disease. She kept coughing and it wouldn't get better. Doctor Zhang from the Imperial Hospital had been trying to treat her but it didn't work. Instead, it got worse and worse until she died in late March of the following year.

We were only a few months old at the time, and we didn’t even recognize our mother’s face, and she passed away just like that. Although I go to pay my respects to her every year, I really hope that she can stay healthy and watch us grow up, get married and have children! ”
