Seeing that he had taken her advice to heart, Nan continued, "If Xu Huaiyu doesn't move, why don't you try to push him a little and force him? If he's a fox, he'll show his tail eventually."
“It won’t work. After he came to the capital, he made very few friends. Including his thirteenth and ninth brothers, Xu Huaiyu only has one maidservant by his side. This person is very cautious, and any slight movement will easily arouse his vigilance.”
As he spoke, Yinzhen sat up. He had another idea in mind. "I'll discuss this matter with my eighth brother and the others. I'll also serve you your meal. Get some rest. I'll come and keep you company tonight."
Nan Yi grabbed him, worried about Eighth Master and Ah Tang's injuries, and asked, "Eighth Master and Ninth Master, are they alright? They were already injured when I arrived."
Yinzhen smiled gently, "It's just a minor injury, nothing serious. The imperial physician advised that I should rest for ten to fifteen days and I'll be back to normal. Next time you encounter something like this, I still hope that you will prioritize your own safety. What are guards for? But I'm sure you won't listen to me."
“I can handle the guards, they’re so incompetent, I’d rather do it myself.” She complained for a moment, then lunged forward and nestled into the Fourth Master’s arms, her eyes sparkling.
Yinzhen put his arm around her and asked with a smile, "What do you want to do now?"
Nan Yi grabbed his robe at the chest and said with a grin, "I've done a good job this time, how does Master plan to reward me?"

Yinzhen chuckled, "You're such a money-grubber. I'll remember that. Not to mention me, this time, Father, Consort Yi, and Consort Liang won't skimp on their rewards."
Nan thought to herself, "That's more like it." She wasn't short of money, but no one would complain about having too much, right? She tilted her head up and gave him a kiss on the chin. "That's more like it. The reward has arrived. Have them send it to the other courtyard. I want to see it."
"Alright." Yinzhen hugged her. "Your eighth and ninth brothers have been very kind to you. In the future, when your family is reinstated, it will be easier for them to speak on your behalf."
"Of course." Since the topic had come up, she lay back on the bed and sneered, "Of course, don't think I've forgiven you. One thing at a time. The grudge against the Nian family for scheming against me won't be so easily forgotten."
The weather in June, like Nan Yi's face, is ever-changing, Yinzhen thought calmly.
