Chapter 12 Rewards
Su Peisheng walked in quietly carrying clothes and saw that the tent was tightly closed around him. His father was sitting by the bed with dark circles under his eyes.

Yinzhen noticed Su Peisheng's eyes and said in a cold voice: "Young Master."

Su Peisheng: [How do you know that this slave is just bullshit? 】

In the morning, Hou Yinzhen went to the harem to pay his respects to Concubine De. Before he stepped through the gate of Yonghe Palace, he heard the sound of Shi Shi and E Niang laughing.

As Yinzhen walked up the steps, a palace maid wearing pine-white armor who was on duty at the door bowed and saluted, turned around and said to the door: "Empress De Fei, Fourth Brother is here to say hello to you."

Yinzhen heard his mother's gentle voice saying, "Why don't you come in quickly? There's no need to do these false courtesy."

Fourteen whispered to Concubine De: "Fourth brother is still separated from E Niang and me. I heard that when he was with the late empress, he didn't have this set of etiquette."

Before he finished speaking, Yinzhen walked in. Fourteen snorted and looked at the roof.

[If you want to fight with me, mother, you must have those two brushes. 】

Concubine De looked at the well-behaved fourth son, but what she thought in her heart was: "The fourth son is indeed too well-behaved. The fourth daughter-in-law learned from him in the past made her, a mother-in-law, worried about the two of them. Fortunately, the fourth daughter-in-law has changed her temper now and is flexible."

Yinzhen glanced at his mother with complicated eyes. It had always been like this. What she wanted in her heart was that she loved him, but what she showed outside was exactly the opposite.

Apart from Huang Ama, E Niang was the person he couldn't understand the most.

Concubine De sat upright, looked at Yinzhen, saluted, and said, "Get up, sit down and talk for a while."

"Yes."

Yinzhen stood up, and Fourteen suddenly shouted: "Fourth brother, your dark circles are a bit serious today. Could it be that some little goblin entered the house, and confused my usually self-possessed fourth brother to the point where he forgot his sense of propriety."

Concubine De scolded her younger son, "Stop talking nonsense to your fourth brother."

Fourteen snorted disdainfully and insisted on saying the last sentence: "Am I wrong? Fourth brother has been diligent before, but he has never seen him like this."

Yinzhen really didn't want to deal with the mean-tongued Shi Shi.

Concubine De had no choice but to pretend that she had not heard what her youngest son said and asked Yinzhen: "How is the Yin family in your house?"

Yinzhen put his hands on his knees and didn't move an inch since he came in and sat down. When asked by E Niang, he turned slightly and replied: "Ms. Yin is already well. Thank you E Niang for your concern."

Concubine De's eyebrows showed a bit of displeasure as she said, "Eniang doesn't care about her. This Yin family is too ignorant." As she spoke, her tone became serious, "Ulanala family is not someone who cannot tolerate others. Yes, she is pregnant, but she has been hiding it from the mistress, hurting the Tian family’s imperial heir, she will also be punished.”

Yinzhen said respectfully: "Yes."

Concubine De then asked Mrs. Jiang, who had directly caused Mrs. Yin to lose her child, "How to deal with Mrs. Jiang? Ulanara is as soft as dough. She just grounded such a prodigal woman. With this precedent, in the future Are the concubines in your house rebelling?"

Concubine De was originally dissatisfied with Mrs. Jiang in her fourth daughter-in-law's report, but she saw her son's expression changed when he heard Mrs. Jiang, and she felt a little unsure for a moment.

Yinzhen stood up and seemed very solemn: "Returning to Eniang, my son is still investigating why Yin's child disappeared. Jiang is innocent and charming, so I'm afraid she is being used as a shield for someone."

Hearing this, Concubine De pondered for a moment, and the voice of the Fourteenth Old Man intervened: "Mother, you still have to take care of me. Fourth brother must be reluctant to let go of the Jiang family."

Yinzhen glared at Old Fourteenth in disgust, and Fourteenth immediately pointed and said, "Look, my dear, Fourth Brother is glaring at me."

Concubine De waved her hand with a headache and said: "Lao Si, this is your family's business, so I won't care about it. Mrs. Jiang, you can protect her if you want, but regardless of the loss of the emperor's heir this time, Whether she has anything to do with it or not, if you do it again in the future, you have to listen to my mother and drive her out of the house."

Yinzhen said yes.

"Mother De'er," Yinxiang walked in with a pot of lotus at this time. The half-grown boy knelt down holding the lotus, "yesterday I heard that you wanted to see good lotus flowers. My son specially selected some from the lotus pond in the imperial garden. Well, please enjoy it first, and my son will replace it with a new one in two days."

Concubine De was so happy that she said that Yinxiang alone was better than Yinzhen and Yinzhen together.

However, Yinxiang just listened to these words. It was true that he was grateful to Concubine De, but it was also true that he would never regard her as his mother-in-law.

After staying in Yonghe Palace for a while, Yinxiang left with Yinzhen.

Walking on the winding path covered by willows in the palace, Yinxiang noticed the look on his fourth brother's face and was startled: "Fourth brother, what's wrong with you? You're so haggard." Yinzhen touched himself. His face, isn’t it because he didn’t sleep all night?So obvious?
"I thought about the Yellow River yesterday and I was so worried that I didn't sleep well." Yinzhen said, "You should stay in the palace while I'm away from the capital for the past six months. When you have time, go to Fourth Brother's house to play and see your little nephew Honghui."

Yinxiang is sincere and likes to follow his fourth brother the most. He is the only brother among such brothers who is willing to treat each other sincerely.

Yinxiang smiled and said: "I originally wanted to visit Honghui. Since the fourth brother invited me, it's better to choose a different day. My brother will go to your house with you after school today."

"What's it worth? Go whenever you want."

As soon as Yinzhen finished speaking, a joking voice sounded in front of him: "Fourth brother only has one younger brother, Lao Shisan? Those who don't know would think you are brothers from the same mother."

The person who said this was Lao Jiu, who was of medium height and handsome, with a hint of sinisterness.

Where there is Lao Jiu, there are Lao Ba and Lao Ten. Lao Ten has no brains. When he came from behind and saw Yinzhen, he said: "Fourth brother, Huang Ama asked you just now, why did you just come back from the front line and your face is so expressionless?" How about being on the front line?"

Yinsu smiled gently: "Fourth brother, Huang Ama may want to summon you. Huang Ama knows about your taking Honghui away from Fourth Sister-in-law."

As he spoke, he looked worried for his fourth brother.

Lao Jiu sneered: "Yes, fourth brother, you have to think of an excuse to snatch your son from your own Fujin."

"Yin Zhen." Lao Ba and Lao Jiu shook their heads, hugged their fists to Fourth Master, and walked away.

Yinxiang said: "Fourth brother, I will go with you to see Huang Ama."

"You go to study, you can't give up on your studies for a day," Yinzhen said. "Huang Ama just asked me about errands, so it shouldn't be anything."

Yinxiang thought for a moment and said, "Okay, fourth brother, I'll go to the study first. When you leave the palace, ask Su Peisheng to call your brother."

"Definitely," Yinzhen watched him leave, then turned and walked towards Qianqing Palace.

Kangxi was forty this year and in his prime. He also liked to ride horses and practice martial arts. He did not use bows and horses when dealing with political affairs. Being young and powerful is the best way to describe him.

When Yinzhen came in, he knelt down to see the ceremony first. Kangxi was crouching at his desk to correct the memorial. When he heard this, he said without raising his head: "Fourth brother, Li Xu just paid tribute to a few buckets of fragrant dew. You can take a few bottles back."

Yinzhen thanked him. He didn't hear Huang Ama's instructions for a while, so he took the initiative and asked: "Huang Ama, do you have any other instructions for your ministers?"

Kangxi placed the collected folders on the left side of the table, then picked up another one and said: "If you can't manage the affairs in the house, ask your mother. Don't give others any excuses."

Yinzhen raised his hand and lowered his head and said, "My son, I know. Thank you Emperor Ama for your concern."

Kangxi had nothing else to do and waved his hand to let him go.

Huang Ama had always been thinking about national affairs, and Yinzhen didn't want to hear more, so he resigned and went out.

"Fourth brother, has this little guy Honghui sunk again?" In the front yard of Sibeile Mansion, as soon as Yinxiang arrived at the nursing home where Honghui was placed, he picked up his nephew and bumped him in surprise.

This is really heavy handed.

Half-year-old Honghui was chubby, with eyes like black grapes in the mist of the morning. He giggled and stretched out his hands for his Ama to hold.

The small appearance is heart-warming.

Yinzhen handed the fragrant dew that Huang Ama had rewarded to Su Peisheng and asked him to arrange for it to be sent to the backyard. He washed his hands and took Honghui over. Honghui immediately became happy.

Yinzhen said: "This kid eats and sleeps every day. He weighs more than 30 pounds. If you don't eat more, you may not be able to hold him."

Yinxiang beat his slightly sore arm and said, "No wonder you are so heavy-handed."

"Su Peisheng," Yinzhen suddenly shouted. Su Peisheng, who was chanting intently, quickly turned around and listened to his instructions, "Cross it out for Mrs. Jiang."

Su Peisheng: Weren’t you and Jiang Gege inseparable yesterday?
