In the carriage, Qingyan leaned wearily against Yin's chest, staring at the ceiling.
"Fourth Brother, did hugging me just now cause you any trouble?" Qingyan didn't want people to gossip about Yin, so she wanted to find out.
“We’ve already left the place of ancestral worship, so it’s alright if you’re carried!” Yin saw that the female relatives were all carried to the car in this way.
Qingyan breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Yin's assurance. As long as it wouldn't cause Yin any more trouble, that was fine.
Yin stood aside and talked about Yiken'e. Both Hongxi and Yiken'e were taught the rules at the same time, but Yiken'e did better, which surprised Kangxi.
"Si Si, Yi Ken'e always does better than Hong Xi. Won't people talk about it?" Qing Yan was a little worried. Several women were saying at the same time, "If Hong Xi and Yi Ken'e are put in a confrontation, what will happen to the child in the future?"
"Yuqing Palace will absolutely not dare to make any further moves, and Father Emperor will not allow Hongxi to make any further moves either," Yin said with a cold snort.
She squeezed Yin's hand: "When will the twins be back?"
“We should wait until after the New Year. Father Emperor asked Yiken’e to stay there, saying there are many things he needs to learn,” Yin said directly. “Let’s not go back to the mansion yet. I’ll take you somewhere else.”
After listening to Yin's words, Qingyan realized that their carriage was not heading towards the mansion, but rather towards the outskirts of the city.
She looked at Yin curiously: "Fourth Prince, where are we going?"
"Didn't you say you'd always wanted to see the ice sculptures?" Yin asked.
"What should we do about Hafeng?" Qingyan was always thinking about his youngest son.
"There will be someone to take care of her at the mansion. Didn't you also arrange for the new maids to be by her side?" Yin didn't care. Since having children, Yin found that Qingyan had focused more of her attention on the children.
Therefore, Yin preferred to take Qingyan out for walks. Each time they went out, they could have some alone time together.
An hour and a half later, the carriage finally came to a slow stop. Yin and Qingyan got off the carriage together. They changed into a set of royal blue casual clothes. At this ice sculpture banquet, which was mostly attended by members of the royal family, no one would notice even if they wore these clothes.
"Fourth Prince, you and your wife have arrived?" Prince An walked over from a distance and greeted Yin and Qingyan directly.
Qingyan looked at the old man in front of her. Was this a member of Guo Luoluo's family?
"Sister-in-law, you've come over?" Guo Luoluo and Tuleguri stood behind.
"Oh yeah, you guys came to see the ice sculptures too?" Qingyan looked on curiously, wondering what kind of combination these three were.
Guo Luoluo laughed directly. Today, she said she was going to visit Prince An's mansion. Guo Luoma and her uncles all said that they promised to give Tuleguri some face and that she could not return until after midnight.
So when Tulegul said there was an ice sculpture banquet here, she came straight over.
"Let's go sightseeing together!" Guo Luoluo invited directly.
Prince An watched as Lady Guoluo and Qingyan walked ahead, and quickly bid farewell to Yin.
When Qingyan turned back, Prince An was no longer there.
"Let's go for a stroll outside!" Guo Luoluo said, pointing ahead. "Fourth Sister-in-law, do you know that Third Prince scolded Third Princess Consort? Fourth Brother carried you to the carriage, and Third Princess Consort was carried by the maids and walked at the back. Third Prince even said, 'Can't you walk faster?' The two of them had a huge argument right at the entrance of the Fengxian Hall courtyard!"
Qingyan was stunned: "Arguing over there will definitely get them punished."
Qingyan had been worried that Yin picking her up in that place might cause him trouble, but this idea was immediately dismissed.
"And then?" Qingyan also started gossiping.
"Third Prince Consort said, 'Look at Fourth Prince, he always takes such good care of Qingyan. Why can't you be more considerate of me?'" Guo Luoluo sneered. "Third Prince said that if you had half of his looks, or half of the Ulanara family's power, Mother would treat you well!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Qingyan sneered. It was indeed Yinzhi's words, spoken with such confidence.
"Fourth Sister-in-law, you're not angry at all?" Guo Luoluo observed Qingyan's expression and found that she was completely unmoved.
"Why be angry? The fact that they're arguing just shows they envy me, doesn't it?" Qingyan said, staring at Guo Luoluo.
Guo Luoluo nodded directly: "Of course, you don't know the situation back then. How many women didn't envy you? They were basically all being forced to stay at home. Only Fourth Master took you away!"
The women were dressed in court attire, and most of them were wearing platform shoes, so everyone was quite tired. If the women had all walked back to their carriages on their own, no one would have said anything.
Now, however, the situation has changed, and Yin's actions have completely shattered the men's expectations.
"Hehe, Sisi's going to get a lot of gossip about her again!" Qingyan remarked. "Why did you guys come over?"
"Just trying to relax. I saw Eighth Prince's wife over there today. She was being arrogant and haughty in her social interactions. I found it laughable. Although Eighth Prince manages the Imperial Household Department, how much ability does he really have? Isn't it the ministers who hold the power?" Guo Luoluo sneered.
"Alright, stop talking about her. Jue Luo's performance today was quite good," Qingyan said directly. "The women are all comparing the two of you!"
"I don't care, and the master cares even less. Jue Luo Shi just wants to use me for revenge. You should know that yesterday, I embarrassed Consort Yi and Consort Liang, making them lose face, and I also caused Jue Luo Shi to be scolded." Guo Luo Shi gloated.
Guo Luoluo looked down on Consort Liang. On the surface, she seemed very kind, but in reality, she was a venomous snake. Whoever she set her sights on would eventually get bitten.
"You still know that? Then why were you stirring things up over there? Didn't you get scolded when you got back?" Qingyan was worried that Tulegu Ri would talk about Guo Luoluo Shi. This guy never knew the meaning of being low-key.
"Of course I wasn't mentioned. Why would they say that about me? Am I not telling the truth?" Guo Luoluo and Consort Liang had a grudge against each other. Over the years, Guo Luoluo had tried many times to have children, but in the end, she was the one who bore the infamy. It wasn't her fault.
"Hehe, it's true, but the words were too direct!" Qingyan smiled even more as he recalled Consort Liang's expression.
“So, I’m going to make them see the truth in their hearts, since they dared to scheme against me!” Guo Luoluo said directly.
Yin and Tulegul walked directly behind, watching the two girls in front chatting happily.
