I Woke the Sick and Disabled Prince on Our Wedding Night

“There’s no need for that.” Lu Ze seemed to have thought of something and slowly turned around to look at Princess Ning Fu as he said, “The fourth prince is weak now and needs someone to take care of him.”

“Don’t worry. I-I’ll definitely take good care of the fourth prince.” Lu Ze’s words made Princess Ning Fu’s eyes light up and she nodded repeatedly as she thanked Lu Ze.

After Princess Ning Fu left, Pei Qian walked out of the warm pavilion and stood beside him as he chuckled. “The fish jumped up before we even put out the bait!”

“Take things slow. Don’t let too many fish come, or else the net will break!”

!!

After Lu Ze glanced at Pei Qian, he interrupted his joke and continued, “If there’s nothing else, you should stay behind. I’ll go back to the city first.”

“Huh? It’s already dark, so it’s not safe for you to rush back at night, right?” Pei Qian looked up at the dark sky above his head. Then, he frowned and turned around to dissuade Lu Ze, but Lu Ze turned around and left with Su Qi.

After sending Lu Ze off, Pei Qian thought for a moment and turned to enter the warm pavilion where the fourth prince was resting.

The fourth prince’s illness came quickly, but progressed slowly. Although Lu Ze and the others had used extreme methods to wake him up temporarily, it was only for a short period of time. Before, the fever that had subsided a little came back again.

Of course, Lin Suisui didn’t know that Duke Huai Yang’s ministry’s courtyard was already in chaos because of the fourth prince’s illness. She had nothing else to do at this moment, so she went to Yuan Niang’s courtyard to watch Du Yue’e and the others make lanterns for Du Yueheng.

“This is the first time you’re celebrating in Cloud Mountain City, right? The Lantern Festival is the most lively and fun period in the entire Cloud Mountain City!” Seeing Lin Suisui sitting at the side and watching them happily, Yuan Niang thought of something and said to her with a smile, “Your Highness, do you want to try?”

“Try what?” Lin Suisui was stunned for a moment. Then, she looked at the woman in a daze and asked in a low voice.

“Making lanterns!” The woman raised her hand and pointed at the materials at the side with a smile. After thinking for a moment, she chuckled and said, “But according to the tradition in Cloud Mountain City, it’s fine even if you don’t want to make them.”

“That’s right. During the Lantern Festival in Cloud Mountain City, women who are about to get married won’t carry lanterns.” Another little girl sitting beside the woman chuckled and nodded. “If they have lanterns in their hands, they’re usually married or have someone they like!”

“The husbands in Cloud Mountain City will prepare lanterns on this day. If they have someone they like or are already married, they will give lanterns to them.

The more thoughtful ones will even make lanterns themselves!

The more exquisite and beautiful a lantern is, the more it shows one’s sincerity! The lanterns will bless the two of them with blissfulness for the new year!”

The woman knew that Lin Suisui had never been to Cloud Mountain City before, so she explained in detail. “By the way, Cloud Mountain City is close to the northern border, so some rules are not so rigid.

Actually, there’s one thing you must remember.”

“What?” Lin Suisui was listening with relish, but the woman’s words immediately made her nervous. She looked at the woman and asked worriedly.

“If someone wants to send you lanterns, please ignore them.” The woman thought for a moment and felt that she had to explain this matter to Lin Suisui first. Although the probability wasn’t high, if it really happened, there would be chaos.

“If I go out that day, I definitely need a lantern in my hand!” Lin Suisui would definitely follow the customs here.

After all, she had never been to a Lantern Festival before!

She had to go and take a look!

“That’s fine, but there are people who try to cause trouble.” The woman didn’t say anything, but Mrs. Song, who was beside her, said with a smile, “But at that time, His Highness will definitely go with Madam. With His Highness protecting you, there definitely won’t be any trouble.”

Lin Suisui nodded and felt that what Nanny Song said made sense, so she didn’t harp on this. Instead, she asked about the other customs in Cloud Mountain City.

It wasn’t until it was completely dark that Lin Suisui returned to her room with Bai Guo to sleep.

She didn’t know when Lu Ze returned, but when she woke up the next morning, Lu Ze was already sitting at the table and waiting for her to eat breakfast.

“Are you free today?” Lin Suisui took the millet porridge that Lu Ze had scooped for her and asked him.

“Yes, Pei Qian is watching over the fourth prince now, so there’s nothing else for me to do.” Although Lu Ze didn’t know why Lin Suisui asked this, he still replied very honestly, “What’s wrong?”

“Tomorrow is the fifth day of the first lunar month. In Cloud Mountain City, it’s the time when we welcome Fortuna! Aren’t we going to open two shops later? Shouldn’t we do as the Romans do and prepare?”

Lin Suisui looked at Lu Ze with a smile.

“How should we prepare?” Although Lu Ze had stayed in the north for a period of time, he had been in the military camp most of the time and didn’t know much about what was going on outside.

But seeing that Lin Suisui was so concerned about it, he naturally had no intention of dampening her spirits.

“We have to prepare offerings, burn incense, pray, and set off firecrackers to welcome them. Oh, right, the most important thing is to get the person in charge of the family to transcribe ‘Fortuna’.”

Lin Suisui told Lu Ze the information she had obtained from Mrs. Song yesterday in detail. Then, she said, “You can leave everything else to Mrs. Song and the others to prepare, but you have to come!”

“Alright, I’ll do it after breakfast.” Lu Ze was amused by Lin Suisui’s miserly appearance. He picked up a small bun with his chopsticks and placed it in Lin Suisui’s bowl.

Lin Suisui smiled and helped Lu Ze pick up a scallion pancake, which he liked.

As she ate, she subconsciously thought of the reason Lu Ze left yesterday and asked, “By the way, since you went to see the fourth prince yesterday, how is he now?”

“He won’t die.” Lu Ze looked at Lin Suisui meaningfully before replying slowly, “With Princess Ning Fu taking care of him personally and his luck with women, you can rest assured!”
