"Fourteenth brother, don't disturb, your fourth brother didn't say anything, only said that he taught the palace people around you a lesson, and this matter is quite unbearable, but Concubine De Niangniang knew, and annoyed the fourth master trained the palace people around you, so that you have no face, and you are annoyed that the fourth master is here." Ji Yingxin said when he saw this.

"Huh?!" Hearing this, the fourteenth elder brother couldn't help but show a little distress, seeing this, Ji Yingxin could basically conclude that something must have happened between the fourteenth elder brother and Yinzhen.

At the moment, he said: "Fourteenth brother, you don't want to see the relationship between the fourth master and Concubine De Niangniang, let me ask you, what is the reason why the fourth master punished you?" ”

"This, that, this." The fourteenth elder brother is hesitant, but he can't say it clearly.

Seeing this, Ji Yingxin's eyes rolled and he had an idea, "Otherwise, I won't ask you what happened, just ask you a few questions, if you think you can answer, you can answer, if not, I won't ask, how about it?" ”

"Okay, fourth sister-in-law, what do you want to ask, just ask." Hearing this, the fourteenth elder brother said happily.

"Okay, the first question, the fourth elder brother punished you, is there a reason for the incident?"

"Yes." The fourteenth elder brother said honestly.

"I'm asking you, is this your fault, or is the fourth elder brother deliberately losing face for you?" Ji Yingxin asked again.

"It's me messing around on my own, fourth brother, fourth brother is just teaching me a lesson." Fourteenth elder brother said.

"Okay, the last question, is it inconvenient for this matter to spread to Liu'er, so although the fourth elder brother punished you and made you suffer, he also concealed it for you, so as not to damage your reputation."

"Yes, it was the fourth brother who thought about me and hid it for me." The fourteenth elder brother said with a pout, with this bit of guilt in his eyes.

Seeing this, Ji Yingxin nodded, "Okay, I already know about this matter, since this is the case, the fourteenth elder brother can learn calligraphy here with peace of mind, as for this matter, I will report it to Concubine De Niangniang." After speaking, Ji Yingxin turned around and left.

"Fourth sister-in-law." Seeing this, the fourteenth elder brother hurriedly stopped Ji Yingxin.

Ji Yingxin turned his head suspiciously, only to see the fourteenth elder brother lowering his head, fiddling with his fingers, and then said hesitantly: "If, I mean if, E-Niang wronged the fourth brother because of this, you, you, you just tell the fourth brother, just tell E-niang to know, don't hide it for me anymore." “

Hearing this, Ji Yingxin was slightly stunned, and then stretched out his hand and touched the bare little head of the fourteenth elder brother, and his voice was a little softer than that of his life.

"Fourteenth brother, don't worry, I know what to do, you study hard, I have this matter." After speaking, he led Cui Xiao Hongrui back to Yonghe Palace.

I saw that in Yonghe Palace, Concubine De and Yinzhen sat silently, the atmosphere in the whole hall was weird, Ji Yingxin walked in, blessed Concubine De slightly, and said: "Eniang, I have asked the fourteenth brother about this matter, this matter is really the fourteenth brother's, the fourth master is like this, but he promised the fourteenth brother not to say it, and abide by the way of a gentleman, but the fourth master does not know how to express it, which angered Eniang, and asked Eniang to forgive his sins." ”

Hearing this, Concubine De's face was a little unnatural, she glanced at Yinzhen, hesitated for a moment before she spoke: "That's it, this matter is also from the palace, since this is the case, the two of you will go back and rest, if there is such a thing in the future, tell the palace in advance, so as not to have such twists and turns." ”

"Yes, my son (son) knows." Yin Zhen and Ji Yingxin responded at the same time.

After bidding farewell to Concubine De, he went all the way out of Yonghe Palace, went back to Brother, walked on the palace road, and only listened to the rhythmic footsteps falling on the ground.

"I was in Yonghe Palace just now, why did I help my lord speak?"

Hearing this, Ji Yingxin's steps were slightly chaotic, and he subconsciously looked at Yinzhen, only to see that Yinzhen's expressionless face was a little inquisitive at the moment, and a pair of eyes, like knives, seemed to be able to dig out the secrets of people's hearts, which made people feel frightened.

Ji Yingxin lowered his eyes in a disguised manner, the steps under his feet returned to normal, and he naturally said in a gentle aftertone: "The fourth master is the husband of the concubine, one is prosperous, and the other is lost, and the concubine naturally can't watch the fourth master lose face in front of Concubine De, isn't it a matter of duty?" What else could be the reason. ”

His eyes were like searchlights, sweeping around Ji Yingxin's face, but Yinzhen couldn't see anything wrong, just now in Yonghe Palace, when Ji Yingxin spoke for him, at that moment, his heart seemed to be cracked.

It's not the stinging crack, but like the long-dried land, the spring gushes, and the trickle seeps out from the depths of the earth, infecting the dry earth, so that the moist touch, little by little, penetrates through the surface and penetrates into the innermost part of the thirst.

Yin Zhen really hoped that such a move was because of something, but when he saw Ji Yingxin's unchanged face, he couldn't find the slightest clue, and for a while, he had mixed feelings in his heart, and he didn't know what to do.

After a while, he retracted his gaze and said: "No matter what, I have to thank you today, two days ago, I got a pair of good silver fox skins, one filial piety to Eniang, and the other one, I gave it to you, you take it back, make a scarf, make a warm sleeve, it's cold in winter, don't freeze." ”

I don't know if it's Ji Yingxin's illusion, when Yinzhen said the last sentence, the cold tone seemed to be much softer than usual, as if the ice turned into spring water, even with a hint of coolness, but it was the beginning of a warm life, which made her lose her mind for a while, and it took a while to react.

"Thank you for your grace."

After saying this, the atmosphere between the two seemed to be cold again, and after being silent for a long time, Yinzhen only said, "It's not too early, let's go back early." “

After that, the two walked back on the silent palace road, and walked back to the elder brother step by step, as if something had changed, and nothing seemed to have changed.

However, it seems that because of today's events, in the next period of time, Yinzhen clearly stayed in the main courtyard for a few more days, and a few days was nothing, but those who reacted keenly knew that this was the prelude to Sifujin's turnover.

Not only did the people in the slave palace feel it, but even Ji Yingxin also noticed it, these days, although Yinzhen didn't show much enthusiasm for her, if she had something to do out of the palace, when she came back, she would bring some gadgets outside the palace, although it was not a valuable thing, or a windmill, or a sugar man, but that heart was enough to show everything.
