Rebirth: The Fourth Lady Wants to Lie Down

Finally, after several days of bumpy journey, they arrived at their destination - the grass mat. The wind on the grassland brought a cool breeze, dispelling the heat and fatigue of the journey. The carriage team slowly stopped, and Yi Ya and Dong E jumped off the carriage almost at the same time, eager to integrate into this vast grassland.

"Fourth brother's wife, look! The sky here is so blue, and the clouds look like they were pinched out!" Dong E stretched out her hand, as if trying to grab those pure white clouds.

Yi Ya was also intoxicated by the boundless green. She took a deep breath and felt as if her lungs were cleansed by the fresh air. "Third sister-in-law, what do you think we should do next? Horseback riding, kite flying, or a picnic?"

"Haha, I think we might as well give it a try! But before that, I think we should find a place to appreciate this beautiful scenery." Dong E said, pulling Yi Ya's hand and walking towards a high ground.

Standing on the high ground, the two looked out over the vast grassland, where they saw herds of cattle and sheep and galloping horses. At the foot of the mountain in the distance, a clear stream meandered through, adding a bit of liveliness to the grassland.

"This is truly a paradise on earth!" Yi Ya exclaimed sincerely.

"Yes, I have only read about such scenes in books before, but I didn't expect to see it with my own eyes today." Dong E's eyes sparkled with longing, "Fourth brother's wife, we should cherish the beauty of this moment."

Yi Ya saw that everyone had already set up the tent, "Third sister-in-law, they have set up the tent, let's go and clean up first! We can have fun tomorrow."

"Okay, let's have fun tomorrow." Then the two of them went to their respective tents together.

At dusk on the grassland, the sun shines on this vast land, and the golden light gives every inch of land a layer of warmth. The tents have been set up, and Emperor Kangxi's tent stands majestically in the center of all the tents like a hill. The tents of the princes are distributed on the east side, like rows of loyal guards, guarding the dignity of the royal family.

Yi Ya followed the eunuch and walked towards the tent where they were. The canvas of the tent swayed gently in the breeze, making a rustling sound, as if welcoming her arrival. Yi Ya walked into the tent, sat on the soft cushion, and watched Bai Shu and others busy sorting the luggage they brought.

"Baizhu, take out the honeysuckle in the box." Yi Ya ordered, "There will be a banquet in the evening, make some honeysuckle tea first, so that you can wash up when Master comes back."

Bai Zhu nodded in agreement and turned to get the honeysuckle. Yi Ya thought for a moment and added, "By the way, prepare some snacks. I'm sure my master will drink at the banquet later. It would be good to have something to fill his stomach so as not to hurt his stomach."

The women nodded and started to get busy. Yi Ya sat aside, silently thinking about the evening dinner. She knew that Yinzhen and his men were going to drink with the Mongolian princes in the evening. This was a kind of etiquette on the grassland and an important way to consolidate the relationship between the two sides.

At this moment, Yinzhen came back from Kangxi's tent. Yiya immediately went forward and said softly, "Master, wash up first."

She personally took off Yinzhen's coat, soaked a towel with warm water, and carefully wiped his cheek. Yinzhen let her do what she wanted, with a hint of tenderness in his eyes.

After washing up, Yiya helped Yinzhen sit down. She personally brewed a cup of honeysuckle tea for Yinzhen and handed him a piece of soft snack: "Master, eat something first to fill your stomach."

Yinzhen took the snack and teacup, smiled and said, "You still understand me the best." He took a bite of the snack and savored it carefully. Yiya looked at his smile, her heart filled with happiness.

At this moment, Yiya remembered the insect repellent purse she had prepared. She picked up the purse, walked to Yinzhen, and said softly: "Master, this is the insect repellent purse I prepared for you. I hope it can keep you safe and sound."

Yinzhen did not take the purse. He looked at the exquisite embroidery on it, and a touch of emotion flashed in his eyes. He stood up and opened his arms to signal Yiya to tie the purse for him. Yiya gently tied the purse around Yinzhen's waist. Her fingers gently touched Yinzhen's skin, as if conveying the warmth in her heart.

Yinzhen looked down at his purse, and a warm feeling surged in his heart. He turned around and hugged Yiya, saying softly: "Thank you, I like it very much."

Yi Ya's face flushed. She shyly pushed Yin Zhen away and said softly, "Go quickly and come back soon. I'll wait for you in the tent."

Yinzhen chuckled and left the tent with Su Peisheng.

As night fell, the bonfire on the grassland was burning, lighting up the surroundings. The aroma of roasted whole lamb was everywhere, the wine was swaying gently in the cup, and the singing was one after another, making it very lively. However, in this joyful atmosphere, Yi Ya and her friends were not allowed to see men outside of their home.

Originally, Yi Ya wanted to invite someone else with the Third and Fifth Concubines to play the card game and enjoy this rare leisure time. But after thinking about it, she couldn't find a suitable candidate. The Crown Princess and the First Concubine were about to give birth, so this time the Crown Prince was accompanied by the Concubine Li Jia. The few people didn't have much interaction with her, so they didn't invite her.

Just as they were worrying about what to play, Su Peisheng's voice came over: "Fujin, the fourth master asked me to bring you some roasted lamb."

Upon hearing this, Yi Ya quickly asked Bai Zhu to take over the roasted lamb and said to Su Peisheng, "Thank you, Eunuch Su. Please thank me for me."

Su Peisheng nodded and turned to leave. Seeing this, the Fifth Lady beside him immediately joked, "Fourth sister-in-law and fourth brother are really in love. Fourth brother didn't forget fourth sister-in-law even in the front, and specially asked Su Peisheng to bring food to fourth sister-in-law."

Dong E also agreed, "Yes, let's try what our fourth brother sent us and take advantage of him."

Yi Ya felt a little embarrassed by the two people's teasing, and quickly said: "Eat quickly, no matter how much food you eat, you can't stop your mouth."

When the two saw Yi Ya like this, they couldn't stop laughing: "It's still the fourth sister-in-law (fourth brother's wife) who is shy."

Seeing this, Yi Ya no longer paid attention to the two and just ate silently. The lamb that was freshly slaughtered and roasted on the grassland was indeed delicious. When it was served, she drooled. However, she was a little greasy after eating too much. Fortunately, she felt better after drinking some chrysanthemum tea.

Amidst the laughter and joy, Yiya gradually relaxed. On this grassland night, everything seemed so beautiful and peaceful.
