Chapter 51 Passionate Staying Up Late, I'm Willing

Yuyan and Guifei had a very pleasant conversation.

The noble concubine wanted to make friends with Yuyan, and she really liked Yuyan's personality, so she took good care of her.

Yuyan felt very comfortable staying with Guifei. As long as Guifei didn't ask her to leave and Defei didn't send anyone to ask her to go back, Yuyan simply stayed in Guifei's palace.

Anyway, you have to spend time in the palace, so naturally you want to stay in a place that makes you comfortable.

Defei has Fourteenth Concubine Jin to take care of her. Yuyan thought that Defei probably doesn't want to see her now, so she "thoughtfully" stayed with Guifei.

Now no one would trouble Thirteenth Fu Jin anymore, and he didn't have to stay by Yu Yan's side, so Yu Yan naturally let his younger brothers and sisters go out to play.

The imperial concubine was young and energetic. Yuyan played mahjong with several young masters of the Tong family in the imperial concubine's palace, and they played until late at night.

It was because the imperial concubine felt sleepy and was shocked at how quickly time passed that she asked someone to send them back, and she looked at them with an apologetic smile.

"I had so much fun playing with you guys today that I didn't expect it's already so late. Fortunately, the palace gates can still be opened because of the New Year. I will quickly ask someone to send you out of the palace. You need to rest for a while after you go back. When you come back to the palace tomorrow, come to my place and we will continue playing."

Yuyan never expected that the imperial concubine was so addicted.

The young men from the Tong family naturally agreed with a smile.

The noble concubine looked at Yuyan with a smile, and Yuyan also smiled and said yes.

Since the noble concubine had invited her, she didn't have to sit in the palace of the virtuous concubine any longer. She really didn't want to hear the virtuous concubine say those words anymore.

It's also nice to be able to enjoy some real Chinese New Year activities.

Seeing that Guifei and several young concubines of the Tong family wanted to play these things so freely, Yuyan's mind also became active. She thought that there was still some time before the end of the New Year, and if Guifei's addiction subsided, she would have to go to Defei's place and sit there.

We have to think of some new ideas to make the royal concubine want to play with her all the time, want to take her with her to play all the time, and then refuse to let her go.

Isn't this the best of both worlds?

Originally, there was nothing bad about having contact with the Tong family.

There are so many people here, so they can definitely develop activities like board game and book-running. Yu Yan was thinking, should she write a few books and let the imperial concubine play with them?

When she was young and in college, she also had a period of crazy fun.

Her father said that if young people don't have fun thoroughly according to their own standards, they won't be able to concentrate on their studies.

Yuyan actually didn't quite agree with this statement, but after trying it out, she didn't seem to find any major disadvantages.

She has very high moral standards and ridiculously high demands on herself. In the words of her father, I trusted my daughter too much.

You ask her to have fun, but she will never cross the moral and legal bottom line. She even guards the middle line very well.

Her father was right.

Therefore, when Yu Yan was having fun, she was mostly observing, observing the rules of the game, observing herself indulging herself, observing how to make rules and how to have fun. She would never get involved in anything illegal or disorderly.

Writing a few sentimental books to satisfy the imperial concubine and the concubines of the Tong family is definitely not a problem for Yuyan.

Yuyan had this idea in mind and was thinking about it all the way out of the palace.

Yinzhen and the other princes were accompanying Kangxi. Kangxi was in a good mood today. Even though the imperial concubine had been released, Kangxi had no intention of doing so.

When Yuyan went out, Yinzhen secretly asked someone to bring her a message, telling her not to wait and to go back home to rest directly, as he had no idea when this would be over.

Kangxi was different from the imperial concubine. The imperial concubine paid great attention to taking care of herself and knew that a woman’s complexion would be bad if she didn’t sleep well. The imperial concubine wanted to have a beautiful New Year’s Day, so they left when they found it was getting late.

Kangxi was the emperor. When the emperor was in high spirits, no one dared to tell him that he needed to sleep and that they would play tomorrow.

If the emperor doesn't want to sleep and wants to play, you have to accompany him.

Yuyan returned home and saw that she was the only one lying on the large bed. She felt a little emotional.

From ancient times to the present, it seems that the New Year festivals are always the same.

She was still a little dazed. How did Jian Yuyan spend the New Year?

Mom and Dad would sometimes take her with them, but she didn't really like endless social events, so most of the time she wouldn't go.

That means mom and dad go there by themselves and she can do whatever she wants.

Sometimes mom and dad come back together, sometimes mom comes back alone. Sometimes mom comes back first and dad comes back later.

As a couple, there will always be a group of people to socialize with.

If mom comes back first, she will rest first. After dad comes back, he will rest with mom.

At that time, Jian Yuyan felt that this was something she had gotten too used to, and she even lamented that the New Year was all about socializing, and everything else was very dull.

She remembered that her parents had laughed at her at that time, saying that she was adorably innocent and that when she started working, she would know how to enjoy the New Year holiday.

Later on, Jian Yuyan could understand what her parents were thinking when they laughed at her.

But what Jian Yuyan recalls now is not this, but the dullness that she once took for granted.

She originally thought that she would always be her parents' little child and would not understand their situation.

But now lying here, she suddenly understood a little bit how her mother felt about waiting, or in other words, how a couple can be apart but still know that the other person will come back to them after socializing.

Her own parents have a very good relationship.

Yuyan felt that she would never have such a good relationship.

People won't be unable to live just because they don't have good relationships.

But lying here, looking at the curtains that wrapped her tightly and safely, Yuyan placed her hands on her heart, and she thought, Mom, Dad, I think I can also have such a good relationship.

Yuyan's heart is at peace and calm. Both her parents are open-minded and cheerful people. Without her, they can live a good life with each other's company.

And she can live a good life here, and it seems that she has someone who loves and takes care of her. I really hope her parents know this.

If she is relieved, her parents will be relieved too.

When Yinzhen came back, it was really a little late.

It was past three in the morning, and I had to get up and go to the palace after sleeping for less than an hour.

It wasn't that Yinzhen was tired, but he had been with the emperor for too long, and his smile was a little stiff. He rubbed his face in the carriage for a long time before he relaxed a lot.

The Imperial Concubine's palace was dismissed around midnight, and Yinzhen was still a little worried about the health of his own Fu Jin. But he heard Su Peisheng say that when Yu Yan came out of the Imperial Concubine's palace, she was chatting and laughing with several Fu Jins from the Tong family, and she seemed to be in good spirits.

Thinking about his own daughter Fu Jin's health, Yinzhen no longer felt so worried.

Compared to this time last year, Yuyan's health has improved a lot.

Come to think of it, it’s been almost a year.

As long as Yuyan gets a good night's sleep for five hours after returning home, there shouldn't be any big problem.

This is what Yinzhen thought, and of course it was a good idea.

After he returned, he originally thought that what he would see was a dim bedroom and Fu Jin sleeping soundly.

He was unwilling to sleep in a separate bed from Yuyan, so he went into the palace before dawn these days and returned home late at night. Yuyan's sleep quality improved rapidly. He would be a little more careful when he went to bed after washing up, so as not to wake up Fujin.

But who could have imagined that when Yinzhen walked in quietly, what he saw was not Fu Jin sleeping soundly behind the drawn curtains, but Yu Yan sitting at the desk writing furiously.

Looking at the person whose eyes were red from staying up late, Yinzhen was stunned for a moment: "Yuyan?"

What is this for? Are you going to stay up all night and make the whole day?

This person doesn't look like someone who is going to sleep.

Yinzhen's first reaction was to look over and ask, "Is someone giving you trouble?"

Who would dare to punish Fu Jin from copying books in the middle of the night?

"ah?"

Yu Yan was stunned for a moment before she smiled and said, "No."

Her smile was so warm, and if Yinzhen wanted to see it, she would let him see it openly.

But she still felt a little embarrassed: "It's me, that's it."

What is it?

She was lying in bed with her mind in a turmoil, thinking about her father and mother, then thinking about Yinzhen. The feelings she felt were strange yet made her feel excited.

Unfortunately, there was no one to share it with, Yinzhen was not around, and she couldn't sleep, so she just got up and stayed up late to write the book passionately.

[Every day, I try to get enough sleep and follow a regular schedule. It’s okay to stay up late occasionally. Just treat it as an experience of life.]

Yinzhen stared at Yuyan's red eyes, like a little rabbit. The area under her eye sockets was fine, she even knew to apply ointment to prevent it from being dark blue tomorrow.

Yinzhen was both angry and amused, and she was also experiencing life.

"Aren't you afraid of getting sick from staying up like this?"

"Pfft, pfft, pfft!" Yu Yan pinched his nose. "It's New Year's Day, Lord Beile, don't say such things. You should be positive and have positive energy! Then you won't get sick. Absolutely not! I'm in great health!"

Yinzhen let her do whatever she wanted, and now he really lost his temper. What kind of habit is this? There is no way, it is a habit he has developed.

He said, "Good. Remember what you said. You are in great health."

Her hands were indeed very warm.

No matter how passionately she stays up late, she is still very good at taking care of herself.

Goji berries were soaked in water and snacks were placed next to them for easy use. Xiaohong and the others took good care of them, so they were not frozen or hungry. Except for their eyes being a little red, everything else was fine.

Yinzhen went to see what she wrote and was overwhelmed after reading it for a few seconds. What was this? Was she going to play a role-playing game with the imperial concubine and the concubines of the Tong family?

It is new indeed. The imperial concubine has never played it before, so she must be very interested.

Yinzhen pointed at the paper and asked, "Who is pretending to be the scholar who is taking the exam?"

Could it be that you are going to find a real one?

Yu Yan laughed and said, "It's fake. It must belong to whoever you draw. The person is not important. What's important is to experience the story and find the murderer."

[This game is very popular in our area.]

Staring at the inexplicably arrogant little Fujin, Yinzhen lowered his eyes and smiled.

"How much more do you have to write? If you keep going, you'll really burn out. You'll be playing with this at the Imperial Concubine's place all day tomorrow, so I'm afraid you won't have time to rest."

Yuyan also smiled and said proudly: "That's not necessarily true. The noble concubine is very nice. If you are tired from playing, you can go to the side hall to take a nap."

Oh, so Fu Jin relied on this to stay up late without fear.

But Yuyan was also very obedient and answered obediently: "There is only one small chapter left to be written. But my hands are a little sore, so I might write a little slowly."

Passionate staying up late is only limited to when Yinzhen is not back.

Why is Yu Yan no longer passionate now that he's back?

She lay in Yinzhen's arms like a boneless person, acting coquettishly unconsciously.

Yinzhen said to her: "Then you tell me and I will write it."

Yuyan was delighted: "Okay."

It is a good story and it was written very smoothly. Fu Jin really has such talent that he could come up with such a complete detective story in one night.

Yinzhen thought it was very interesting.

The concubine will have a great time.

Yinzhen felt that this was reasonable. With Yuyan's personality, she should get along well with the imperial concubine and the concubines of the Tong family.

In fact, this is what he hoped to see.

However——

"It's good that you and the imperial concubine are together. But don't force yourself for my sake. With me here, you don't need to please anyone, just be yourself."

Yinzhen looked at Yuyan's red eyes. How could she be moved by the story he wrote? If he hadn't been there for her, would she have cried?

He already knew that Yuyan was a girl with a lot of emotions.

She should be younger.

Thinking about her mature and steady way of handling things, Yinzhen thought again, maybe age is not a problem, being young is not the key point, being a little older is not a big deal, the key point is that she has a pure and kind heart.

A woman with this kind of mind is full of emotions. This is a good thing.

How lucky he was to meet her when she was emotionally rich. If she had used up her emotions on someone else, what would be left for him?

Yinzhen thought that it was their destiny to meet.

"I'm not trying to please."

Yu Yan smiled and said, "In fact, I won't hide it from Lord Beile. Putting aside the status difference, the Royal Concubine and I have similar personalities. Playing together is also a way to enhance our relationship. Lord Beile knows me best. I have always been myself."

"Master Beile, think about it. If this thing is made, the Imperial Concubine will like it, and the Third Sister-in-law and the others will definitely like it too. If we promote it and sell it, won't we be able to make a fortune again?"

Yinzhen laughed and pinched her nose with his hand: "Little money-grubber."

Yuyan snorted. Who would complain about having too much money?

She had thought it through. First, she could release the Royal Edition and the Official Edition. Once released, wouldn't they be a huge hit? It was time for the wealthy families in Jiangnan to have a taste of the popular items in the capital.

And more.

Yuyan's gaze was soft and focused on Yinzhen's face, looking into his eyes.

[You were so kind to me. I seem to have influenced and changed you. I made you take a different path from what is recorded in history. I want you to inherit the throne peacefully and not experience so much turmoil.]

[You are on good terms with the Tong family, but you are only on good terms with Longkodo. But he is not a good person. On the contrary, the brothers of the imperial concubine and Empress Xiaoyi are good people, and they are deeply trusted by Emperor Kangxi. They are actually more reliable. It's a pity that historical records don't mention them much. But we certainly can't rely on those records that we don't know whether they are true or false for everything.]

[I believe in your judgment. You are on good terms with the Tong family, and they are all close to you. While they have not yet supported Yinsi, many things can be changed. In the future, the Tong family will not be destroyed, with only Longkodo left to support the family.]

Yuyan buried her face in Yinzhen's neck and said in a soft and sticky voice: "You've waited for me. I am willing."
