Rebirth: The Fourth Lady Wants to Lie Down

On a quiet afternoon in Prince Yong's mansion, the sun shines through the exquisite window lattices onto the dining table where Yinzhen and Yi Ya are having lunch together. There are rich delicacies on the table, and the two chat and laugh happily, enjoying this rare leisure time.

However, behind this tranquility, there are undercurrents.

Bai Zhi, a maid loyal to Yi Ya, was walking around the courtyard, preparing for the afternoon's chores. She was very attentive and could always catch some subtle movements.

At this moment, she accidentally heard a piece of news that made her very angry from a little maid - Uya, the woman who had just been confined to the house, was cursing Lady Yiya in secret.

"Have you heard? After Uya Gege was brought back to her own courtyard from the main courtyard today, she started cursing in the house, saying all bad things about Fu Jin." The little maid lowered her voice and said mysteriously.

When Bai Zhi heard this, she felt a surge of anger in her heart.

She was well aware of the mistakes made by Uya, and also understood that it had nothing to do with Concubine Yi Ya. But now, Uya was venting all her resentment on Concubine Yi Ya. How could this not make people indignant?

"How dare she do this! Mrs. Fu has been tolerant enough towards her!" Bai Zhi scolded in a low voice.

Bai Zhu had been silently paying attention to her emotional changes. She soon noticed Bai Zhi's abnormality, so she took advantage of the gap between Yin Zhen and Yi Ya's conversation, quietly walked to Bai Zhi and asked softly.

"Bai Zhi, what's wrong with you? You look so ugly."

Bai Zhi turned to look at Bai Zhu, a hint of hesitation flashed across her eyes, but she finally decided to express her indignation.

"Bai Shu, I heard a piece of news that Wu Ya was cursing Fu Jin in the house. Tell me, how can one not be angry?"

Bai Zhu frowned upon hearing this, and she also felt strongly dissatisfied with Wu Ya. But she knew very well that as a servant, she must always remain calm and rational.

"Baizhi, I understand how you feel. But we must remember that no matter how angry we are in our hearts, we must not show it on our faces. Nanny Wang is very strict about the rules. If she sees you like this, she will definitely blame you."

Bai Zhi heard this and thought of Nanny Wang's stern look, and she couldn't help but shudder. She immediately nodded and tried to calm down.

"You're right. I can't let my emotions control my actions. I'll keep that in mind."

Then, the two smiled at each other and continued to devote themselves to their respective work.

Although they could not directly stand up for Yi Ya Fu Jin, they knew that as long as they had love and loyalty to Fu Jin in their hearts, it would be enough to support them through one difficulty after another. And what Wu Ya did would not escape fair judgment in the end.

Nanny Wang was so busy that she didn't notice Bai Zhi's subtle changes, but the strangeness was caught by the observant Yi Ya.

After lunch, Yinzhen and Yiya sat side by side in the pavilion, enjoying the leisure time after dinner, playing a game of chess with chess pieces in their hands.

Yi Ya's eyes occasionally swept out the window, and seeing that the sun was shining brightly, she gently asked Yinzhen.

"Master, the sun is shining so brightly, I'm afraid I'll feel sleepy in the afternoon. Do you need to take a short nap to refresh yourself for the afternoon?"

Yinzhen raised his eyes to look at Yiya, and seeing her eyes full of concern, a warm current surged in his heart. He smiled and nodded in agreement: "Fujin is right, I will do as you say."

Yi Ya smiled faintly when she heard this, and then turned around to call Bai Zhi to make arrangements. However, she called a few times but did not see Bai Zhi respond as usual.

Suspicious, Yi Ya gently put down the chess piece and looked in the direction of the sound. She saw Bai Zhi standing not far away, with a thoughtful look on her face. She seemed immersed in her own thoughts and unaware of the movement around her.

At this time, Bai Zhu, who was standing next to Bai Zhi, also noticed her abnormality. She gently nudged Bai Zhi with her elbow and reminded her in a low voice.

Bai Zhi finally woke up from her dream and quickly came to her senses. She realized her misconduct and quickly apologized to Yi Ya: "I am guilty of misconduct. Please punish me, Madam."

Seeing this, Yi Ya did not blame her at all. Instead, she became even more curious about why Bai Zhi was so absent-minded.

She asked softly, "Bai Zhi, what were you thinking about just now? You were so absorbed in it."

Bai Zhi's heart tightened when she heard this. She knew that what she was thinking about involved a sensitive person in the mansion - Wu Ya, so she didn't dare to speak easily.

She secretly glanced at Yinzhen, and saw that Yinzhen was also looking at her with an inquiring look, and obviously he had noticed her abnormality.

Feeling the gazes from the two, Bai Zhi took a deep breath, mustered up her courage, and said carefully: "In reply to the Master, I... I just heard some news about the Uya family, and I feel a little unfair."

Yinzhen frowned slightly when he heard this. He knew that the matter of Uya had always been a hidden danger, and now it seemed that a new wave had arisen.

He asked in a deep voice: "What's the news? Tell me."

Bai Zhi felt Yinzhen's majesty and dared not hide anything, so she told him everything she heard from the little maid about Uya cursing Fu Jin in the house.

After saying this, she lowered her head again, waiting for her master's decision.

After hearing this, Yi Ya's face did not show anger, but a complex emotion flashed in her eyes. She looked at Yin Zhen, and the two exchanged glances, as if they had understood each other's thoughts.

After a moment, Yinzhen said, "I will take care of this matter. You two can just focus on your work and don't worry about it anymore."

Upon hearing this, Baizhi and Baizhu quickly responded in agreement, full of admiration for Yinzhen and Yiya's tolerance and wisdom.

The afternoon storm gradually subsided with Yinzhen's promise, leaving only the sunshine and the gentle breeze. Everything seemed to have returned to the tranquility and harmony of the past.
