The night gently enveloped the mansion, and the stars were like gems dotted on the night sky. Bai Zhi was busy in the kitchen, preparing tonight's dinner.

At the same time, Li Dequan's figure gradually appeared in front of the gate of the mansion. Next to him was a young boy, who was Honghui.

As soon as Honghui stepped into the courtyard, a sharp-eyed servant recognized him and shouted excitedly, "Brother Honghui is back!" The voice echoed in the night sky, as if it had spread throughout the mansion.

Yi Ya heard the servants' voices in the room. She knew Hong Hui had been rescued, but she was still worried. Now that she heard that Hong Hui had really returned, she immediately put down what she was doing and rushed out of the room.

When Yi Ya saw Hong Hui, all her worries turned into tears of excitement. She hugged Hong Hui tightly and called his name in a trembling voice: "Hong Hui, you're back! Are you okay? Are you hurt?"

Honghui felt his mother's warm embrace and caring eyes, and a warm current surged in his heart. He gently patted his mother's back and comforted her: "Mom, I'm fine. Don't worry."

Li Dequan, who was standing by, also breathed a sigh of relief. He explained to Yi Ya, "Don't worry, Fourth Lady. When I sent Master Honghui back, I asked the imperial physician to check him, and he was not injured."

After hearing Li Dequan's words, Yi Ya finally felt relieved.

She wiped away the tears from her eyes and looked at Li Dequan gratefully: "Eunuch Li, thank you so much. It's so late and you took the trouble to personally send Honghui back."

Li Dequan waved his hand and said modestly: "Fujin, you are too kind. This is what I should do. As long as little Prince Honghui is safe, I will be at ease."

Yi Ya signaled the eunuch Yuan Bao beside her to send Li Dequan out, and handed him a bag of silver as a thank you.

Li Dequan refused at first, but under Yi Ya's insistence, he finally accepted the gift.

After the sound of Li Dequan's footsteps gradually faded away, Yi Ya gently pulled Honghui to her side, stared at him with gentle eyes, and said in a trembling and joyful voice: "Honghui, how do you feel now? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?"

Honghui looked at the concern in his mother's eyes and felt warm in his heart.

He recalled the scene in which Yi Ya risked her life to protect him and stood in front of him. He couldn't help but worry about his mother's health: "Mother, I'm fine. But you were stabbed for me. How is your injury now?"

When Yi Ya heard her son's question, a warm feeling surged in her heart.

She gently stroked Honghui's head and said with a smile: "Honghui, my mother's injury has healed a lot, you don't have to worry. Seeing you come back safely, everything is fine for me."

At this moment, Yinzhen walked into the room. When he saw Yiya and Honghui, mother and son, leaning on each other, a gentle smile appeared on his face.

He walked forward and bowed slightly to Yi Ya, who quickly stood up to return the greeting.

Yinzhen gently supported Yiya and said softly: "Yiya, your injury has not healed yet, so there is no need to be polite. Rest well and take good care of your body is the most important thing."

Yiya smiled and nodded, then immediately told Baizhi to bring the prepared meal. The family sat around the table, enjoying the food and chatting.

Honghui excitedly recounted how he was rescued, while Yinzhen and Yiya interrupted from time to time to ask for details, and the whole room was filled with laughter.

After the meal, Yinzhen played a chess game with Honghui. They played back and forth, competing with each other, and had a lot of fun. Yiya sat on the cushion and watched them play with a smile on her face.

Time passed slowly and the night grew darker. Yi Ya looked at the backs of Hong Hui and Yin Zhen playing, her heart filled with gratitude and satisfaction.

She knew that tonight was a special night for Honghui because he was finally back in the arms of his family.

So she walked over to Yinzhen and Honghui and suggested, "I want to sleep with Honghui tonight, is that okay?"

Yinzhen looked at Yiya and Honghui's expectant eyes, smiled and nodded: "Of course. You two haven't been reunited like this for a long time, so enjoy this rare time tonight."

So, with Yinzhen's consent, Yiya and Honghui washed up together and lay on the soft bed. They hugged each other tightly, feeling each other's heartbeat and breathing.

In this quiet night, their family was finally reunited, all the worries and fatigue disappeared, they quietly closed their eyes and fell into a sweet dream.
