The Biography of Concubine Xi of Yongzheng

Chapter 41 Teaser
"Yo? Sister-in-law is in a good mood today, she doesn't cry anymore!" Yanhua walked into the study happily, and when she raised her eyes, she saw Yinzhen talking to Shisan.Seeing the bright smile on her face, Thirteen teased, then looked down again.

"Fourth brother, what is your opinion on the questions raised by Zhili Shuntian and Hejian prefectures in the imperial court today regarding the influx of victims from Shandong last year?"

Yinzhen glanced at Yanhua, saw the smile on her face, and slightly bent the corners of her mouth.He raised his pen and dipped the ink she developed, waved his hand and wrote two words on the paper: tax exemption.

Thirteen stared at these two words for a while, Yinzhen raised his eyes and boasted: "Yes, this ink research is very good."

"Thank you, Lord Belle, for your compliment." After hearing this, Yanhua raised her face and smiled sweetly at him, just like the sweet-scented osmanthus in autumn, fragrant but not greasy.She thought that it was Yinzhen's credit for Fujin to find out about Yingxiu so quickly. If he hadn't sent someone to investigate, Yingxiu might have to suffer for two more days.

Shisan glanced at the smiles in their eyebrows, then chuckled: "Fourth Brother, you mean to exempt the land rents and grains due from the two prefectures?"

Yinzhen nodded approvingly: "Thirteenth brother who understands me. I think Huang Ama will do the same, but he has other concerns, so he didn't raise this matter in the court today."

"After all, this is not a long-term time. The main problem now is how to feed them. Even if there is a tax, they can't pay it. If it is exempted, it will relieve the urgent need."

"Well, now we can only do this first, let's talk about it after passing the current stage." Yinzhen frowned slightly, staring at the osmanthus tree outside the window for a moment.

When Yanhua raised her eyes inadvertently, she saw such a scene: a little bit of worry and melancholy burst out from his sharp eyes, and his thick black eyebrows were slightly raised because of the slightly twisted expression, making him look more dignified.His nose stood straight, and there was a little stubble at the corner of his mouth, which added a touch of vicissitudes to him for no reason.

He was in a daze for a while, sighed silently, and when he retracted his eyes, feeling her gaze, he turned his eyes to look at her lightly, the melancholy in his eyes had not yet dissipated.

Yanhua noticed the emotion in his eyes that she could not understand, her heart beat slightly stagnated, and she suddenly felt distressed.

"Ahem~" Shisan stood beside Yinzhen for a while, and saw that the two of them hadn't finished their eye contact yet, so he deliberately coughed twice.The bewilderment on Yanhua's face turned into embarrassment in an instant, her face burned quickly, she hurriedly lowered her head and continued to study ink.

"Hey, if you want to flirt with each other, wait until I'm not around. Now that I'm such a big living person standing here, you're still flirting with me, how do you want me to react? Hahaha..." Thirteen Seeing Yanhua's blushing face, she thought it was funny, so she couldn't help joking again.

"Thirteenth brother, don't make trouble!" Yin Zhen smiled and saw Yan Hua's red cheeks, and the worry in his eyes completely dissipated.

"What do you think?" He smiled softly, seeing Yan Hua's face getting more and more embarrassed, he asked an irrelevant question aloud.

Yanhua didn't react for a while, and asked "Huh?" in confusion.

"About what the thirteenth brother just said."

Yanhua waited for him to continue, but he closed his red lips, stopped speaking, and only looked at her indifferently.Yan Hua couldn't help making up two more sentences for him in her mind. With this temperament, she only spoke half of what she said, and she thought it would tire him out?
