I Woke the Sick and Disabled Prince on Our Wedding Night
Chapter 338 - 338 Response338 Response
When the fourth prince came to look for Pei Qian, Lu Ze and Lin Suisui had already left after receiving the news.
However, perhaps because the fourth prince had come in a hurry and some important factors were involved, after Pei Qian settled the fourth prince down, he instructed Qian He to invite Lu Ze over to talk.
“Are you alright, Song Tao?”
Although he was already anxious because of what had happened during the day, when it came to Pei Qian, he still had to maintain appearances.
Moreover, Pei Qian wasn’t just a tool for him to seize the throne.
After all, Pei Qian had saved him at least three to four times. Where else in this world could he find a loyal minister like Pei Qian, who would risk his life for him?
If he still didn’t cherish Pei Qian, he would be too ungrateful.

“Your Highness, I already know what happened today.” Pei Qian took a while to catch his breath before saying to the fourth prince, “Previously, I told Your Highness not to go to those residences with complicated family situations when you’re in the north. After all, one can’t judge a book by its cover.
But you didn’t listen at all.
If you had informed me before you went over this time, or if you had let Mr. Zhou accompany you when you entered Marquis Beining’s ministry, at least there wouldn’t have been such a huge scandal.”
Pei Qian was very straightforward, but the fourth prince didn’t show any dissatisfaction and accepted his advice very calmly.
“Yes, I know I was too impulsive this time, but I was too bored in Duke Huai Yang’s ministry!” Although the fourth prince admitted his mistake, he was still a little indignant.
However, Pei Qian didn’t intend to indulge him.
He gestured for Qian He to show the fourth prince the confessions that Lu Ze had sent over early in the morning. “Your Highness, did you really just go there because you were bored and want to take a breather?”
“Did someone gossip in front of you again?” When the fourth prince saw Pei Qian’s expression change, he immediately felt that something was wrong, but on the surface, he still played dumb to maintain his dignity.
“I was drugged this time! I didn’t know anything about it!”
“Your Highness, I’ve told you that Gu Erlang is quite important to General Wei Bei.” Pei Qian didn’t want to expose him, so he stopped there. “Since I chose to put him in an important position, it means that this person is not just a boor.
Your Highness and I will have to return to the capital sooner or later.
We can only leave the northern region to Gu Erlang to take care of! At such an important time, instead of thinking of a better way to rope him in, you actually want to…
“Your Highness, what are your plans?!”
“Alright, alright. I know I was wrong, okay?!” The fourth prince didn’t look at the stack of confessions. Pei Qian most likely knew about his plan, so he didn’t bother to explain and admitted his mistake directly.
“What do you think, Your Highness?” Seeing that the fourth prince had admitted his mistake, Pei Qian didn’t pursue the matter and changed the topic to today’s scandal.
“I came to you for this matter,” Since Pei Qian had taken the initiative to mention this, the fourth prince quickly looked at him and said in a pleading tone.
“If this matter spreads to the capital, my reputation will be ruined! My third brother and the others will definitely take the chance to ruin me completely!”

“What do you mean?” When the fourth prince heard Pei Qian’s words, he immediately perked up and looked at him expectantly while waiting for his solution.
“Your Highness only needs to blame everything on the dispute between Marquis Beining and General Wei Bei. As for Your Highness, who appeared in the courtyard today, you can use the excuse that you got caught in the crossfire!
You don’t have to appear yet. You have to let Marquis Beining take responsibility for this matter and blame it on the internal strife between the women in the Inner Residence!
When Marquis Beining clarifies this matter in public and severely punishes the culprit, no one will be able to do anything about it even if they have ulterior motives.”
Pei Qian told the fourth prince about the countermeasures he had already arranged before instructing him, “In order to deal with this matter impeccably, the best way is to completely reorganize Marquis Ning Yuan’s back residence once and for all.
Otherwise, I’m afraid it will be difficult to convince the public.”
“I naturally trust your arrangements.” The fourth prince didn’t want to waste his time thinking about it, so after Pei Qian gave him the solution, he didn’t even have the intention to ask further and nodded in agreement.
“Alright, I’ll arrange things. However, there’s another matter. What do you think about Princess Ning Fu?” After Pei Qian obtained the fourth prince’s approval, he didn’t continue to harp on this matter. Instead, he changed to another matter that was closely related to the current situation.
“Princess Ning Fu is the last descendant of Duke Huai Yang’s ministry.
She has an imperial order. If you don’t deal with it appropriately, Princess Ning Fu and the old consort might get dissatisfied and really expose this matter to the people in the capital.”
“I know. I’ve already agreed to give her the position of a concubine.” The fourth prince replied very quickly, “Before I came, I’ve already warned her that as long as she’s obedient in the future and doesn’t cause any more trouble, I can give her the position of a concubine. After my wedding this autumn, I’ll report to the emperor and my mother to accept her as a concubine.
However, if she still wants to cause trouble, I definitely won’t let her do whatever she wants. I naturally have other ways to deal with her!”
