"What are you all doing here in the middle of the night? Don't you need to sleep?"

"I wanted to sleep, but I was frightened by the gongs and drums outside and couldn't sleep at all."

It was rare for Yinqi to make a joke.

Yinreng glanced at him sideways.

"Where are the gongs and drums? You're asking for a beating."

Yin Qi chuckled twice, then said,

"Actually, Cao Yin also sent it to me. The two women are still in my yard."

Yinzhen frowned.

"It seems no one is left behind, this Cao Yin..."

"Fourth Brother, are you trying to say that I have the potential to become a corrupt official?"

Yinyou held up his face, he felt a little sleepy at the moment. He had been reading books every day recently, even when he was on the road, which resulted in him not getting enough sleep every day. It turned out that reading was also a hard job.

"yes."

Yinzhen spat out a word coldly. Over the past two days, he had come to realize that Cao Yin and Li Xu were both flatterers. No matter how outstanding their political achievements were, he could not tolerate them.

He originally planned to arrange the two beautiful Han women to sweep the yard and not take them with him when he left the palace.

I didn't expect that my second brother would be so disrespectful to Cao Yin.

that is--

"Second brother, the Emperor placed Cao Yin in Jiangnan with the intention of having him monitor all officials. If you slap him in the face like this, the Emperor will..."

"Where did I hit him in the face?"

Yinreng leaned back lazily.

"He gave me two maids to clean the house. If I give them back to him, I'm slapping him in the face. If he has the guts, he should just stop giving them to me! He's already done it, and he's afraid of what people will say? He's being both a proprietor and a dissenter. What kind of logic is that?"

"That being said..."

Yinzhi calmed himself down and spoke slowly,

"I'm afraid the Emperor will be angry with you because of this."
