When Kangxi heard that Yinzhen had been infected with an epidemic in Jincheng, he specifically instructed him to go home and recuperate for a few days before returning to the palace to report on his work as soon as he returned to Beijing.

Li was already six months pregnant, and when she heard that Yinzhen had returned, she wanted to go over and see him. However, she was stopped outside by Ling An before she even entered the house.

"Madam, please go back. Lord Beile has ordered that no one should be seen today." Li was not giving up and wanted to force her way in relying on the child in her belly: "Lord, let me see you."

Ling An stood in front of the door without moving: "Please don't embarrass me, Madam."

Deyin also heard Li's voice outside the door, and asked herself whether she should avoid it and let her in.

"Yinyin, I don't want irrelevant people to disturb us. Ling An will handle it." Yinzhen grabbed Deyin's hand and pressed her to sit in her seat, not wanting others to disturb them.

"But Li is already six months pregnant. Do you really not want to go see her?" Deyin felt bad when she asked this question. It was certainly not what she wanted to let the person she loved see someone else. But this was Yinzhen's child after all. After hearing from Concubine De that the Fourth Master's family was small, Concubine De had repeatedly advised him to welcome more new people, but he had refused.

"Do you know how this child Li came about?" Deyin was a little shocked when she heard what Yinzhen said. She didn't expect that Li looked like an honest person, but she would do such a thing as using aphrodisiac incense.

Yinzhen was more cautious when he heard that she was pregnant. He didn't expect that the imperial physician would find the residue of aphrodisiac in his room. If the child Li was carrying was not his own, he really didn't want to see that woman for a moment. Li had really changed and was no longer as innocent as when she entered the mansion.

Deyin thought about what Concubine De said that day and wanted to test Yinzhen: "Master, do you know that Concubine De likes children the most?"

As soon as Yinzhen heard it, he knew that it was Concubine De who had said something to her again. Before, his mother had advised him to take in some new wives so as to expand the Aisin-Gioro family, but he had always refused on the pretext that he didn't like them. He didn't expect that the girl would ask him about it today.

Yinzhen put his hand on Deyin's waist, looked into her eyes and said, "In order to fulfill your mother's wish, it will depend on both of us to work harder in the future."

As soon as Deyin heard it, she knew that this person was being naughty again, but this sentence was too provocative, and Deyin's face flushed again. Who would talk to others in broad daylight and say that they wanted to have a baby? This Fourth Master really has no shame.

"Yinyin, there are some things I still want to talk to you about." It was the first time that Deyin saw Yinzhen like this, hesitating in front of her.

In fact, even without Yinzhen telling her, Deyin knew that even if the emperor granted her marriage, she could only be a concubine. In fact, Deyin didn't care much about these external titles. She gave the concubine to the Ulanara family. She only wanted Yinzhen and his heart. The Ulanara family was still helpful to Yinzhen, so she had to keep it stable for him.

Yinzhen originally thought that Deyin would be unhappy, but he did not expect that what Deyin said would make him feel relieved. Looking at the little girl in front of him, he could not help but want to get closer to her, hugged Deyin and rubbed her neck, sucking her scent madly.

"Yinyin, you smell so good." Deyin felt a little itchy because of him. She twisted her body hard but was still held tightly by Yinzhen.

"Get up quickly, you're hurting me." Yinzhen hadn't shaved in the past few days, and the stubble rubbed against Deyin's delicate skin, which felt quite deep, painful and itchy.

Today Deyin stayed with Yinzhen at home for a whole day. The two of them did not go out all day, but called people in for dinner. Ling An had been waiting outside and fell asleep several times, but the two people inside did not feel bored at all.

Finally, when it got dark, Yinzhen asked Ling An to send Deyin back to the Taifu Mansion.

"Who is in that?" Geng recognized Yinzhen's carriage at a glance and asked Huang Zhi.

Deyin lifted the curtain and looked out the window, and she saw Geng's face. Geng was also impressed by Deyin and recognized her at a glance. Today, she heard that the Fourth Master was staying indoors and didn't want to see anyone. Even Li, who was pregnant, didn't see the Fourth Master. She understood that there was someone hiding in the Fourth Master's room. Although Geng had a little temper, she was still a smart person. She knew that Deyin was favored now. If she married into the family, she would treat her well. Maybe she would have the opportunity to see the Fourth Master again.

Li was not as reasonable as Geng. She felt that someone was trying to snatch the Fourth Master from her again. She was very dissatisfied with Deyin and took it out on the servants in the bedroom.

"Fujin, don't be angry. You are the mother of the little prince now." Yes, she, Li Shuran, was pregnant with the prince. With this child, she was not afraid that the Fourth Master would not come.

Li Shuran gently stroked her belly with an expectant expression on her face.
