The couple came out of Shizikou Alley and originally wanted to go into the palace to pay their respects to Concubine De, and then go to Yuqing Palace to thank their second sister-in-law, but plans could not keep up with changes.
As the carriage left the alley, it ran into the guards from the mansion.
After asking carefully, he found out that it was Fourteenth who left the palace to look for him at the mansion.
Yinzhen's heart moved, and he almost immediately thought of Uya Weiwu who was still imprisoned in the prison, and his brows furrowed.
Those parasites in the Imperial Household Department have been locked up in jail for a month.
The Imperial Household Department is now temporarily taken over by the Ministry of Clan Affairs and Liang Jiugong. Apart from some confusion at the beginning, it is now functioning normally.
Moreover, without those people in charge, the eunuchs and maids in the palace have become more cautious and there have been few troubles recently.
Yinzhen privately felt that the emperor should have cleaned up the Imperial Household Department long ago.
Yinzhen frowned and thought for a moment, then decided to go and meet Fourteenth.
Over the years, Fourteen would start to attack him after just a few words. It was impossible for him not to feel heartbroken, but he still cared about the blood relationship in his heart and never held Fourteen in a grudge.
Last time he said such harsh words, I thought no one would want to talk to him after fourteen days, but I didn't expect that he would take the initiative to come to the mansion to find him.
After returning home, the couple came to the central hall of the front yard and saw Fourteenth with a dejected look on his face.
Fourteen heard the footsteps and came forward to meet them.
"Meet Fourth Brother and His Wife."
Ulanara bowed to Fourteenth.
"Fourteenth brother."
"Why are you here at this hour? Is today's horseback archery lesson not over yet?"
Compared with Ulanara, Yinzhen was not as polite in his words.
He was diligent and hardworking when he was young, and he especially disdained Fourteen's behavior of relying on the emperor's favor to slack off in his studies.
"The Emperor didn't go to the Archery Pavilion to test the teacher today. I left the palace after the horseback archery class was over."
Fourteenth's young face was full of sorrow, and it was rare that he didn't try to tease Yinzhen.
Yinzhen walked to the top seat and sat down, Ulanara sat next to him, and Fourteenth also sat down below Yinzhen.
"No one comes to see me for no reason. Tell me, why did you come to see me today?"
He was too lazy to be polite with Fourteen. The way they had gotten along for more than ten years was there. If Fourteen was just being hypocritical with him, he would feel terrified.
The fourteenth and fifteenth brother frowned and glanced at Ulanara. Seeing that his fourth brother didn't show any reaction, he gritted his teeth and said,
"Fourth brother, can't you really help Guo Luomafa?"
"It seems he went to the Palace of Heavenly Purity to ask for mercy."
Yinzhen picked up the tea and took a sip with an expressionless face, the sarcasm in his tone clearly evident.
Upon hearing this, Ulanara coughed lightly. Yinzhen turned his gaze away and finally put away his expression of wanting to watch the fun and not mind getting involved.
He and his young wife, Ulanara, did not like her much at first and only respected her as his legal wife. Later, after seeing his second brother and his wife together many times, he realized that husband and wife should be close to each other.
After Yinzhen patiently got to know Ulanara, he realized that she was not dull and rigid at heart. It was just that she lost her father at a young age and had no brothers to support her family. Life was difficult, so she suppressed her nature and used rules to protect herself.
After spending several years together, although the couple still cannot talk about everything, they are no longer as respectful to each other as they were at the beginning.
Fourteen knew that Yinzhen would not give him a good face when he came here today, so he suppressed the unhappiness in his heart, stood up and saluted Yinzhen respectfully.
"Please ask Fourth Brother to plead for Guo Luomafa in front of Second Brother."
This was the first time in so many years that Fourteenth Prince bowed his head in front of Yinzhen.
Yinzhen was quite curious and stretched his head to look outside.
"Did the sun rise from the west today?"
A smile flashed across Ulanara's eyes, and then she patted Yinzhen.
Yinzhen curled his lips.
When Fourteen heard this, his lips straightened and his posture became more standard.
During this period, he went to the Qianqing Palace many times to plead for mercy, but even if the emperor saw him, he would not give him an accurate answer.
Seeing his mother becoming more and more haggard day by day, he really couldn't find any other solution and could only ask his fourth brother for help.
After the quarrel in Yonghe Palace that day, he privately investigated the relationship between the Uya family and his fourth brother.
Only then did I realize that the Uya family's attitude towards Fourth Brother followed that of my mother. They just watched from afar and did not get close to him.
But he would receive gifts from the Wuya family during every festival, including gold, silver, treasures and rare items.
It is obvious that the Uya family does not actually regard the fourth brother as one of their own.
Then it’s only natural that Fourth Brother doesn’t help now.
It is indeed a bit unreasonable for him to come to the house now.
But he...
There's really no other way.
"Fourteenth brother, don't worry. Your fourth brother also has his own difficulties. You know, he is in charge of the affairs at the port and has a lot of interactions with the Ministry of Internal Affairs. If you force yourself to step in, it will inevitably be seen as interfering.
Besides, it has been a month since the incident. If the emperor's attitude could be softened by your pleading, you wouldn't have failed so many times.
Furthermore, the rumors outside are getting more and more intense, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is already busy trying to avoid suspicion. How could he help someone he has no connection with just a few words from your fourth brother?
The word "slave" almost came out of her mouth, and Ulanara quickly breathed a sigh of relief.
"In fact, the fact that the Emperor has not issued an edict to make a judgment is actually a good thing for the Uya family. The longer time passes, the more the Emperor's anger will dissipate. He was so angry back then that he didn't kill people impulsively, and he will definitely not do that now."
"Don't be too anxious. Go back and calm down first. If things really get to that point...your fourth brother, because of his bloodline, will definitely not stand idly by."
