Rebirth: The Fourth Lady Wants to Lie Down

In the capital, in a luxurious mansion, time is passing and the story is continuing. Li Si'er's affairs have become the past, like a gust of wind, blowing gently, leaving behind dust and memories all over the ground. However, the dust has not completely settled, especially in Hesheli's heart.

Hesheli stood in the exquisite courtyard, her eyes revealing deep worry. She looked up at the blue sky, but her heart felt heavy as if it was pressed by a huge rock. She knew that her son had not yet completely walked out of Li Si'er's shadow, so she decided to take new actions.

"Madam, why don't you try a new method?" a maid asked softly, interrupting Hesheli's thoughts.

Hesheli turned around, a look of determination flashing in her eyes. "Go, find some beautiful women from outside, who must be able to sing and dance." She ordered.

The maid nodded and hurried away.

After a while, several women dressed in gorgeous clothes were brought to Hesheli. They were all beautiful, graceful, and good at singing and dancing. Hesheli nodded with satisfaction and said to them: "From now on, you will be responsible for accompanying the young master and making him forget the pain of the past."

Afterwards, Hesheli came to Longkodo's yard again. Since Li Si'er's death, Tong Guowei also released Longkodo from the woodshed and locked him in his own yard.

"These women are left to you." Hesheli said to Longkodo.

At first, Longkodo didn't care about these women. He was still immersed in his own world, indifferent to everything around him. However, as time went by, he was gradually attracted by the beauty and talents of these women. Their singing was melodious and their dancing was light and graceful, as if they could take away the sadness in his heart.

When Emperor Kangxi learned about this, he did not say much, but was extremely disappointed with Longkodo. As a result, Longkodo was able to spend the whole day with these women and spent a carefree time.

However, as time went on, Longkodo became addicted to this dissolute life. He spent all day fooling around with these women in his mansion, forgetting his former ideals and ambitions. His life became extravagant and decadent, and he completely lost his former vigor and vitality.

"Longkodo, are you living up to your father's expectations by doing this?" Hesheli finally couldn't help but blame him.

Longkodo was silent, with a trace of confusion in his eyes. He knew that he was heading down the wrong path, but he couldn't extricate himself. He seemed to be bewitched by those beautiful women and forgot his original intention and mission.

In this way, Longkodo continued to go further and further on the path of decline, and his life became more and more decadent and degenerate.

……

The summer sun shines on the golden bricks and jade tiles of the Forbidden City, covering this ancient and solemn palace with a golden coat. Kangxi sits in the imperial study, his eyes deep and firm, holding a memorial in his hand.

Suddenly, he raised his head and his voice echoed in the empty study: "Someone come."

Li Dequan immediately bowed and walked into the study. He asked respectfully, "What is the emperor's order?"

Kangxi put down the memorial in his hand, looked directly at Li Dequan, and said calmly and forcefully: "Pass on my decree. The wedding date of the eighth prince Yinsi and Guo Luoluo Mingrou of Guo Luoluo Mansion is set on the eighth day of the eighth month."

After hearing this, Li Dequan immediately lowered his head, with a hint of awe in his voice: "Yes, Your Majesty." He turned and left the study, ready to convey this important news to the entire capital.

The news quickly spread throughout the streets and alleys of the capital. Both the concubines in the palace and the common people were busy preparing for this grand wedding.

In the deep palace of the Forbidden City, the concubines in each palace also began to talk about it.

"Have you heard? The Eighth Prince and Miss Mingrou from the Guo Luoluo Mansion are getting married." A concubine said softly.

"Really? This is such a big deal!" another concubine said excitedly, "Now the Forbidden City is going to be bustling again."

"Who said it wasn't true? Concubine Liang is so blessed. She was originally just a little palace maid. Now not only has her son married a woman with a good family background, but she has also been conferred a title of consort. She is so lucky." said a young concubine.

"Sister, please don't talk nonsense. Be careful, there are ears on the other side of the wall." A concubine looked at the young concubine and spoke out to stop her.

"Thank you for the reminder, sister."

In the streets and alleys, people were talking about it and looking forward to this grand wedding.

In the mansion of the eighth prince Yinsi, he also learned the news. He stood in front of the window, looking at the busy people outside the window, with a faint smile on his face. He had always felt inferior because of his background. Now that he married a wife with a good family background, he also gained face among his brothers, and his mother was promoted to concubine.

In Guoluolu's house, Mingrou also learned the news. She sat in front of the window, holding a rosary in her hand, with a happy smile on her face. She knew that she was finally going to marry her beloved. She prayed silently, hoping that the wedding would go smoothly and that her and Yinsi's future would be full of happiness and beauty.

As the eighth day of the eighth lunar month approaches, the entire capital city is immersed in a festive atmosphere.

During the Qing Dynasty, before getting married, the princes had to follow the ancient system and leave the palace to live independently. This tradition was not only a training for the princes' ability to live independently, but also a preview of their future responsibility for the country. Kangxi attached great importance to this and specially selected a mansion for the eighth prince Yinsi, which was adjacent to the mansion of the fourth prince Yinzhen.

Kangxi made such arrangements not only to facilitate exchanges between the two brothers, but also to demonstrate the harmony and unity of the royal family.

"The Emperor has really thought it through. It's great that we brothers can live next to each other." Yinsi said happily as he stood in front of the door of the new mansion. He looked up at the golden plaque on the lintel, which read "Eighth Prince's Mansion" in four large characters. The characters were powerful and showed the majesty and dignity of the royal family.

At the same time, Yinzhen was also very proud of the decoration of Yinsi's mansion. He used his position in the Ministry of Works to personally supervise the construction and decoration progress of the mansion. From layout design to material selection, from carving decoration to color matching, he personally checked every detail to ensure that everything met Yinsi's preferences and tastes.

"Eighth brother, what do you think of this mansion?" Yinzhen asked, pointing to an antique pavilion in the courtyard.

Yinsi looked around and nodded with satisfaction: "It's really beautiful! Every detail reveals the nobility and elegance of the royal family. Fourth brother really took a lot of effort."

Yinzhen smiled and patted Yinsi on the shoulder: "We are brothers, this is the way it should be. If you need to change anything in the future, just tell me."

The two walked into the mansion side by side. Yinsi pointed to a painting in the study and said, "This painting is really exquisite. I wonder where did Fourth Brother find it from?"

Yinzhen smiled proudly and said, "I picked this especially for you. It was made by a famous artist and it matches your taste."

Yinsi said with emotion: "Brother is so thoughtful and considerate. I am very grateful."

Then, the two walked side by side to other places. Yinzhen pointed to a rockery in the courtyard and said, "I picked this rockery especially for you. Its shape and texture complement the overall style of your mansion."

Yinsi nodded and praised: "It's really beautiful. Fourth brother really took the trouble."

The two chatted and laughed for a while, and Yinzhen suddenly said seriously: "Eighth brother, although we each have our own mansions now, we must never forget our brotherhood. No matter what difficulties we encounter in the future, we must support each other and face them together."

Yinsi nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, Fourth Brother, I will keep it in mind."

No matter what the future outcome of the two will be, the relationship between Yinzhen and Yinsi is still relatively good at this time.
