The two quickly arrived at the meditation room where Xingyin was.
Upon seeing the two, Xingyin clasped her hands together and said, "Amitabha, please have a seat, both of you benefactors."
After Yinzhen and Tong Cheng'er sat down, Xingyin said, "It seems that the benefactor has not come for quite some time."
Yinzhen nodded: "There are some matters outside, so I am not in the capital."
Upon hearing this, Xingyin stopped talking, handed the black piece to him directly, and said, "Please."
This is to start the game directly.
Yinzhen took the black pieces, then bent down slightly, picked one out from the black pieces with his finger, and placed it on the chessboard.
Tong Cheng'er sat next to Yinzhen, watching the two play chess, but unfortunately, she couldn't understand it.
On the chessboard, Yinzhen and Xingyin played back and forth, creating a lively scene. Tong Cheng'er was able to watch patiently at first, but as she watched, she found it boring and her eyelids began to droop.
The two were engrossed in their chess game when Yinzhen suddenly felt a weight on his shoulder. He couldn't care less about the game anymore and turned around to see that his young wife had fallen asleep.
This made Yinzhen both smile and wryly; she really could fall asleep in any situation!
Thinking this, he suddenly put the chess piece back into the chess box and said to Xingyin opposite him, "Let's stop here for today!"
Xingyin looked at the person on his shoulder, put her hands together, and nodded.
Xingyin smiled as she looked at the two of them: "It seems that you have no worries today. This is a blessing for you, and also a blessing for the person on your shoulders."
Upon hearing this, Yinzhen smiled and nodded: "That is indeed what I'm looking forward to."
Xingyin smiled and said nothing more, then stood up and said, "I won't disturb you two gentlemen's rest any longer. I'll take my leave now. Please use this meditation room!"
Yinzhen nodded: "Thank you, Master Xingyin."
"Amitabha, you are too kind, benefactor."
After saying this, Xingyin turned and left.
"Su Peisheng, please see Master Xingyin off."
Just as Su Peisheng was about to agree, Master Xingyin said, "You're too kind, there's really no need."
After saying that, he left immediately.
Su Peisheng spoke up: "Master, this...?"
Yinzhen: "Never mind, you can go out now!"
Su Peisheng had just said, "Yes," and hadn't even left when Yinzhen said again, "Go out and get a cloak."
Although the weather hasn't turned cold yet, it's still good to cover yourself with something while you're asleep.
Su Peisheng: "Yes, Master."
Su Peisheng quickly brought in the cloak, then went outside to wait at the door for orders.
Inside the meditation room, Yinzhen carefully draped a cloak over the young consort, then gently pulled her into his arms to make her more comfortable.
Sleeping with your head resting on someone's shoulder for too long can easily cause a stiff neck.
It was half an hour later when Tong Cheng'er woke up.
When she woke up, she was a little confused and didn't know where she was until Yinzhen asked, "Awake?" and she was fully awake.
Then she found herself in his arms, and looking around, she remembered what she had done.
She hadn't expected to fall asleep while watching a game of chess. After getting out of his arms, she said with an annoyed look, "I'm sorry, I fell asleep."
Yinzhen smiled and patted her head: "It's not your fault, don't overthink it."
Tong Cheng'er lowered her head and murmured, "Oh, how long did I sleep?"
Yinzhen: "I didn't sleep for long, only half an hour."
Half an hour later, Tong Cheng'er remembered why she had come today, and she immediately got up.
Yinzhen: "What's wrong?"
Tong Cheng'er said, "I need to go find my mother; we've been out for too long."
Yinzhen wondered what had happened!
"Don't worry, I've already told my mother-in-law that we can have dinner together later."
Tong Cheng'er finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It's no wonder she fell asleep. Usually, although she wakes up early, she would take a nap after having breakfast with Yinzhen. Today, she woke up even earlier than usual and didn't get to sleep during the carriage ride.
She had just watched two people playing chess, going back and forth, but she couldn't understand it, so naturally she got more and more tired and sleepy as she watched.
"It's about time, let's hurry up and go. I guess Third Brother and Sister Yingyu should have found each other by now."
Whether it will work out or not should be decided by now. Of course, Tong Cheng'er is happy to see Yingyu become her sister-in-law, but it's unclear what the two parties involved think.
Yinzhen: "Alright, let's go."
When Tong Cheng'er arrived, Niohuru Fujin was no longer there, and Tong Xue'an had also returned; it seemed they had found a match.
Seeing that her mother looked fairly happy, she figured the two of them should be able to get together, and even if they didn't, there should be more to come.
Tong Cheng'er: "Mother, I'm back."
Shumulu glared at her with a smile: "You still know to come back. I heard you fell asleep. How can you sleep so much!"
Shumulu was used to saying these things, so Tong Cheng'er didn't feel uncomfortable at all. Before she could speak after hearing them, Yinzhen said, "Mother-in-law, Cheng'er got up earlier than usual today. I suppose she is really tired."
Upon hearing this, Shumulu felt both amused and exasperated.
This son-in-law is quite interesting. She just said a few words, without any other meaning. She was mainly afraid that the Fourth Prince would have a problem with his daughter.
Unexpectedly, he protected her so fiercely that she couldn't say a word.
Although it was funny, Shumulu was actually happy. It seemed that the Fourth Prince really doted on her daughter, otherwise he wouldn't have done it this way.
Shumulu Shi found Yinzhen more and more pleasing to the eye. She had heard that the concubines in the Fourth Prince's mansion had become mere decorations, and this was probably not unfounded. If the Fourth Prince could continue like this, her daughter would truly be blessed.
