Yinzhen hugged Chenghu's arm and said, "No, brother, we can talk it over. Don't deduct my salary."

Chenghu glanced at Yinzhen helplessly, "Are you scared now? Xiaowu."

Yinzhen: "Brother, you can punish me however you want, but don't deduct my salary. I have to support my wife and two children with this salary."

Upon hearing this, Chenghu couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Xiaowu, don't act pitiful with me. Everyone knows that your family has many properties, and you still need this little salary?" Yinzhen scratched his head and smiled ingratiatingly: "Brother, those are all external things. Salary is different." Chenghu gently tapped Yinzhen's head: "You are the only one who has too many crooked ideas. Never mind, I'll forgive you this time. But it won't happen again." Yinzhen was overjoyed and bowed quickly: "Thank you, brother, you still love me." Chenghu rolled his eyes at him: "You, you should be more careful in managing the Ministry of Revenue in the future. Don't stay up late when your work is not done. My father and mother will be angry." Yinzhen agreed repeatedly: "Brother, I will remember your teachings."

Cheng Hu: "Remember to take some time to bring some snacks from outside the palace to Hong Yao and Budashun. The two little guys miss you."

Yinzhen smiled and said, "Don't worry, big brother. I've already prepared some novelties and snacks and am planning to send them to the palace soon." Chenghu nodded with satisfaction and said, "You have always been thoughtful and considerate. This saves me a lot of worry."

Yinzhen: "Brother, I really like my eldest nephew and niece. Even though I have my own children, it doesn't stop me from liking them."

Cheng Hu: "Alright, it's getting late. You can just leave the palace and go back home. Don't go to the Ministry of Revenue. You and Baocheng both have imperial physicians at home. Let them check your pulse tomorrow."

Yinzhen: "Brother, I will leave the palace and return home first. Tomorrow, have Su Peisheng bring the things prepared for my nephew and his family to the palace."

Chenghu looked at the person in front of him with a smile, and said slowly: "Okay, brother, I already know about this. You should return to the mansion quickly. It's windy outside, don't stay here for a long time, so as not to catch a cold and get sick. Go back quickly!" He waved his hand gently, signaling the other party to leave quickly.

Yinzhen bowed respectfully to Chenghu and turned to leave. After taking a few steps, he ran into Yinzhi who was looking for Chenghu. Yinzhi saw Yinzhen and said sarcastically: "Hey, Xiaowu, you got the benefit from big brother, and you want to leave so proudly." Although Yinzhen was unhappy, he still had a smile on his face: "Second brother, you are joking. I have something to discuss with big brother from the Ministry of Revenue." Yinzhi snorted coldly: "Humph, don't think that big brother only favors you. Let's wait and see." Yinzhen frowned slightly, did not respond, and quickened his pace to leave the palace.

Upon returning to the palace, Yinzhen immediately ordered Su Peisheng to carefully pack the things he had prepared for Hongyao and Budashun. Seeing this, Wu Xiha asked, "Did your mission go smoothly today?" Yinzhen took Wu Xiha's hand and sat down. "It went relatively smoothly, thanks to my eldest brother's care. It's just that I met my second brother on the way, and his words were sharp. I'm afraid there will be more trouble in the future." Wu Xiha looked at Yinzhen worriedly. "Then you have to be careful how you deal with it." Yinzhen nodded, his eyes becoming firm. "It's okay. As long as we do our own things well and guard the palace, we won't be afraid of him making things difficult for us." Then he hugged little Honghui and teased him, temporarily forgetting the troubles in the palace.

A few days later, news arrived from the palace that Chenghu was ill. Yinzhen was distraught upon hearing the news and hurried to the palace to visit him, bringing with him precious medicinal herbs from his palace. Inside Chenghu's palace, he was found lying on the couch, his face pale. Yinzhen approached him, concerned about his condition. Chenghu waved his hand and said softly, "Perhaps he caught a cold from being busy with his work these days. He's fine."

At this time, Yinzhi also came to visit the patient. Seeing Yinzhen there, he started to sneer again: "Xiaowu, you come here so diligently, as if you are afraid that others don't know that big brother values ​​you the most." Yinzhen was about to refute, but Chenghu coughed a few times and said sternly: "Second brother, if you are so rude again, I will not let you off easily." Yinzhi had to shut up.

Chenghu turned to Yinzhen and said, "Xiaowu, don't bother with him. You're focusing on your work, which is a good thing. You don't need to worry about other people's gossip." Yinzhen nodded in agreement. After Chenghu's condition improved, Yinzhen worked even harder at the Ministry of Revenue, achieving remarkable results and earning Chenghu's admiration. Yinzhi's repeated attempts to thwart him only earned him a reputation for being narrow-minded, gradually losing the emperor's favor. Yinzhen, on the other hand, lived a peaceful and stable life in the palace, enjoying the company of his family and occasionally visiting his brothers, nephews, and nieces.
