Rebirth: The Fourth Lady Wants to Lie Down

Chapter 227: Warm and Disturbed

In the land that was once devastated by floods, the light of hope finally penetrated the thick clouds, and the golden sunlight gently sprinkled on the village that was gradually recovering.

After several days of unremitting efforts and emergency repairs, the villages downstream of the river finally stood up from the ruins and regained their former tranquility and order.

The busy figures of the villagers shuttled between the rebuilt homes. Although there was fatigue on their faces, there was more indomitable tenacity and infinite longing for the future.

Yi Ya stood at the entrance of the village, her eyes passing through the curling smoke and fixed on the still busy figure in the distance - Yinzhen.

He is like the stabilizing force of this land, always standing at the forefront and interpreting responsibility and commitment with his actions.

During this period of time, he has devoted almost entirely to this land and the people here, working tirelessly just to restore the village to its former vitality as soon as possible.

Yi Ya looked at Yin Zhen's slightly hunched back, feeling mixed emotions. He used to be full of vigor and vigor, but now he looked a little tired and thin, which made her feel distressed and admired him.

She knew that all this was for the safety of the villagers and the reconstruction of the village. He used his hard work and sweat to exchange for today's peace and hope.

So, early in the morning of that day, when the first ray of sunlight penetrated the mist and gently brushed across the earth, Yi Ya gently instructed Madam Su beside her: "Madam, did you see that? The master has been too busy these days, and his body may not be able to bear it. Can you prepare some nourishing meals to nourish his body? Let him feel the warmth and care of home."

When Su Ma heard this, a trace of heartache and respect flashed in her eyes. She knew all that Yinzhen had done for this land, and she also understood Yi Ya's worries and care.

So, she nodded, her voice gentle but firm: "Don't worry, Fu Jin, I will do my best to prepare the most nutritious meals for the Fourth Master, so that he can recover his strength as soon as possible and continue to work hard for the village."

In the afternoon, the warm sunshine fills the entire courtyard, and the air is filled with the fragrance of flowers and plants.

Nanny Su finally brought out the carefully prepared meals. Each dish was delicious and emitting an enticing aroma.

That was the best consolation for Yinzhen's hard work and a deep respect for his selfless dedication.

Yi Ya took the tray personally and walked lightly towards the study where Yinzhen was.

In the study, Yinzhen was buried in his papers, concentrating on handling various matters. Yiya gently pushed open the door, fearing to disturb him. However, Yinzhen immediately noticed her arrival, looked up at her, and a trace of tenderness and fatigue flashed in his eyes.

"You're here." Yinzhen said with a smile, with a barely noticeable hoarseness in his voice.

Yi Ya walked to the desk, gently put down the tray, and said softly: "Seeing that you are so tired these days, I specially asked Madam Su to prepare some nourishing meals. Eat some while it's hot to replenish your body."

Yinzhen felt a warm current in his heart when he heard this. He looked at Yiya gratefully, his eyes full of tenderness and apology: "Thank you, Yiya. I have indeed neglected you and many things during this period, but seeing the village gradually recovering, I think it is all worth it."

Yi Ya shook her head gently and reached out to serve Yin Zhen a bowl of soup: "It's worth it. I know everything you do is for everyone. But remember to take care of yourself. After all, health is the capital of revolution."

Yinzhen took the bowl of soup and took a sip. The rich aroma of the soup instantly filled the entire study, as if even the air had become warm and sweet.

He looked up at Yiya, his eyes gleaming with determination: "Once all these things are dealt with, I will definitely accompany you and Honghui. Our family will go out to the suburbs to enjoy the flowers and enjoy the long-lost peace and happiness."

After hearing this, Yi Ya's face broke into a happy smile.

At this moment, the door of the study was suddenly pushed open, breaking the silence.

A young eunuch rushed in breathlessly, looking panicked. It was obvious that he had trespassed without notifying anyone, which was extremely disrespectful according to the training he had received in his daily life.

Su Peisheng, who was standing by, saw this and his face darkened. He quickly stepped forward and reprimanded in his characteristic stern tone, "How dare you! Why are you so flustered that you have forgotten the rules of the palace?"

The young eunuch was so frightened by Su Peisheng's shout that his whole body trembled. His face, which was already red from running so fast, turned even paler and redder. His legs began to tremble involuntarily, and he trembled for a long time without being able to utter a word.

Seeing this, Yi Ya gently put down the book in her hand and asked softly, "Don't be anxious. Tell me slowly. What happened? Why are you so panicked?"

The young eunuch felt Yi Ya's gentleness and finally regained a bit of rationality. He quickly knelt on the ground. Although his voice was still trembling, he was able to express himself coherently: "Reply...Reply to Fu Jin, the emperor suddenly summoned the fourth master and said...said that there is an urgent matter to discuss. Please go quickly!"

Upon hearing this, Yinzhen paused for a moment, then looked up at the young eunuch, a trace of solemnity flashing in his eyes: "Do you know why the Emperor summoned me?"

The young eunuch shook his head, his face full of helplessness and fear: "I don't know the details, but the eunuch beside the emperor looked quite anxious when he passed on the message. It seems that this matter is very serious."

Yinzhen nodded. Although he had many questions in his mind, he knew that now was not the time to pursue the details.

He quickly stood up and turned his gaze to Yi Ya. The two exchanged a deep and tacit look. Without saying much, they both understood the other's concern and support.

"Yiya, I need to go see the emperor immediately. I'll leave this place to you. If anything happens, send someone to notify me immediately." Yinzhen whispered, his tone full of reluctance and apology.

Yi Ya smiled slightly, her eyes firm: "Don't worry, I will take good care of this place. Be careful on the road, go early and come back early."

Yinzhen nodded, then turned to Su Peisheng and ordered, "Prepare the horses."

After saying that, he hurriedly left the study accompanied by Su Peisheng, leaving behind only warmth and expectation in the room.

Outside the door, the sound of horse hooves gradually faded away and finally disappeared in the afternoon sun.
