Shock! I accidentally entered the Qing Dynasty and was spoiled by the Fourth Master

The first thing Yinzhen did when he returned to Beijing was to report to the palace. Kangxi reviewed many memorials submitted by the Yellow River Basin, and naturally praised Yinzhen's tour here, which not only recovered the debt owed to the treasury for him, but also solved the flood of the Yellow River and stabilized the people's hearts. By the way, he cleaned up a large number of corrupt officials and restored peace to the local area. He got rid of three major troubles.

The Crown Prince saw that the memorials impeaching Yinzhen were of no use. Ever since he recovered the national treasury debts, the Emperor began to pay more attention to the Fourth Prince. Even the ministers in the court began to regard him as a lone wolf, and gradually he drifted away from the Crown Prince's party. Yinreng was a little scared. Originally, he was able to fight against the Eighth Prince thanks to Yinzhen's advice. Now that the Fourth Prince was in the limelight, there was no guarantee that he might have other ideas.

When Yinzhen returned to Beijing this time, Kangxi gave him a day off to let him have a good rest.

"I have one more thing to ask for forgiveness, Father." Yinzhen immediately knelt down.

Kangxi was a little puzzled. He had not blamed him today and he had completed the tour very well.

"I, your son, took the initiative to deprive the corrupt officials I met during my tour of duty. I beg Your Majesty to punish me." Yinzhen placed his hands on his forehead and bowed to Kangxi.

When Kangxi heard this, not only did he not punish him, but he smiled and took Yinzhen's hand to help him up: "What crime have you committed? It's all that group of people's fault. You have done a great thing for me, you deserve a reward!"

Yinzhen's tense face relaxed a little only at this time. He knew that what the emperor hated most was someone speculating on his intentions. Kangxi was in his prime and was quite suspicious. He would be on guard against any slight overstepping of authority. It was rare that he appreciated what the fourth son had done this time.

Yinxiang was waiting for him outside the gate of the Hall of Supreme Harmony to return home together. Deyin sent Qitai to tell the Thirteenth Prince that Shen Jiaxu was in the Fourth Prince's mansion, and was waiting for him to come and pick her up. The young couple hadn't seen each other for many days, and one wondered how affectionate they would be when they met again.

Deyin and Shen Jiaxu were busy in the small kitchen cooking to welcome the two brothers. Shen Jiaxu didn't know much so she just helped Deyin reluctantly. Deyin asked her to rest several times but she refused and kept running back and forth in the small kitchen with her big belly.

"Slow down." Shen Jiaxu was carrying the glutinous rice lotus root that Deyin had just made and was about to put it back into the front hall. He took a big step over it without paying any attention to the threshold under his feet, which made Old Thirteen, who had just entered the room, shout in anxiety.

Shen Jiaxu looked in the direction of the voice and saw Old Thirteen walking quickly up to her and taking the plate from her hand, telling her to sit still and not be careless in case something got bumped into or else. He didn't even dare to think about the consequences.

"How can I be so delicate?" Shen Jiaxu finally got the chance to get up and walk around, but as soon as Old Thirteen came back, he started to control her again. She touched her round belly and kept mumbling.

Seeing that she couldn't sit still, Yinxiang had no choice but to take her for a walk in the courtyard.

When Yinzhen smelled the familiar fragrance, he knew that Deyin was busy in the small kitchen again. He walked into the kitchen one of the few times. Deyin felt a little hot from the hot steam in the steamer and her temples were sweating slightly. Yinzhen walked around her, took out the handkerchief in his sleeve and gently wiped away the sweat.

"Master, you're back." Deyin looked up and met Yinzhen's eyes. She could see all of Yinzhen's little expressions.

"Why do you have this expression on your face, Yinyin? You don't recognize me after not seeing me for more than ten days?" Deyin was confused about how to respond. She was obviously happy, could the Fourth Master really not see that?

"What are you talking about? I just can't believe that the person I think about day and night is right in front of me." Deyin's words were enough to make Yinzhen happy for a long time.

Deyin didn't cook many dishes today, but they were all his specialties. Even the Thirteenth Brother, who was used to eating delicacies from land and sea, praised them highly. He had been eating light meals every day during the patrol, just porridge with side dishes. The Fourth Brother specifically told him not to waste food to set an example and not to be caught by villains. Today, he had a good appetite. Shen Jiayu, who was standing next to him, saw him eating so much that his appetite improved a lot. He was tortured by morning sickness a few days ago, and he would vomit acid water after eating a little. Today, he could even eat some meat and vegetables.

Shen Jiaxu suddenly remembered the letter that the Fourth Master sent to Deyin and couldn't help but question Old Thirteen. Her emotions were unstable during pregnancy and what she said was a bit nonsensical: "Tell me, do you have other women outside?"

When Old Thirteen heard this, he was startled and confused, and even the food he had just fed into his mouth tasted like chewing wax.

He put down the bowl in his hand and stroked Shen Jiaru's hand: "My little ancestor, why do you say this to me? Fourth brother, you have to testify for me." The Thirteenth Brother looked at Yinzhen in panic and placed his hope on him, hoping that his fourth brother could help him explain.

Yinzhen coughed twice and said, "When I was on tour, many officials sent beautiful women to Old Thirteen, but..." Yinzhen deliberately paused for a few seconds to keep Old Thirteen in suspense.

Shen Jiaru didn't wait for Yinzhen to finish speaking. She just focused on the key words she had captured and slapped Old Thirteen several times.

"Even Fourth Brother told me that local officials sent a lot of beauties to you in order to bribe you, and you still want to lie to me." Shen Jiaru was so immersed in her own world that she didn't have time to listen to Yinzhen's next words.

Deyin looked at the embarrassed Thirteenth Master, comforted the sad Shen Jiaru beside her, turned to Yinzhen and said, "Master, why don't you explain it quickly? Sister Shen is about to cry."

Seeing that something was not right, Yinzhen immediately added, "But the Thirteenth Master is determined and has not been tempted by beauty along the way. You can rest assured, my sister-in-law."

When Shen Jiaru heard this, she looked at Lao Shisan and said, "Is that really the case?"

The Thirteenth Old Master looked at Shen Jiaru in front of him with a doting look on his face and nodded. Of course, he was not stupid not to have the best wife in the mansion love him. How could he find time to think about other things when he was so busy on tour?

Fourth brother is really something. He almost couldn't explain himself clearly because he kept pausing while talking.

Deyin was also happy watching the two of them flirting. Both of them had lively personalities. She wondered whose personality the child would be more like after he was born.
