Rebirth: The Fourth Lady Wants to Lie Down

A week passed in a flash, and under the careful care of Nanny Su, Yi Ya's physical condition improved significantly.

Her face became rosy, like a peach blossom blooming in spring, full of vitality and energy. Her hair became darker and shinier, like the brightest stars in the night sky, shining with an alluring luster. Her body was like ice and jade, her skin was as delicate as snow, exuding a fresh and refined temperament.

During this time, Yi Ya exuded a faint herbal fragrance from time to time. This fragrance came from the various herbs prepared by Su Ma for her, which not only helped to regulate the body, but also made people feel relaxed and happy.

After a few busy days, Yinzhen finally stepped into the main courtyard. As soon as he entered, he saw Yi Ya sitting in the courtyard.

Her beauty and temperament made him feel refreshed, as if the whole world became brighter at this moment. He walked quickly to Yi Ya and looked at her changes carefully, but he couldn't tell what had changed.

Yinzhen walked slowly towards Yiya, his eyes gentle. He noticed that she was playing with chess pieces in her hands, lowering her head and concentrating on the chess game in front of her. She was so focused that she didn't even notice him coming. The sunlight shone on her face through the gaps in the leaves, reflecting her focused outline, making her look more peaceful and elegant.

Bai Zhu, who was standing by, noticed Yinzhen's arrival and quickly prepared to speak up to remind Yi Ya.

Yinzhen waved his hand to signal them not to say anything, then he bowed slightly and left.

"Fujin, how are you these days?" Yinzhen asked softly, breaking the silence around them.

Yi Ya looked up and saw Yin Zhen standing in front of her. A surprised smile appeared on her face: "Master, when did you come?"

Yinzhen smiled and pointed at the chessboard: "I've been here for a while, but I didn't expect you to be so devoted that I didn't even notice you when you were here. Your chess skills seem to have improved a lot."

Yi Ya responded modestly: "Thank you for the compliment, it's just a pastime in my spare time."

Yinzhen walked over and sat on the stone bench opposite Yiya, motioning for Yiya to continue playing chess: "It just so happens that the weather is just right today, how about we play a few games?"

"Okay! This time, you have to give in to me."

Then the two began to play chess in a relaxed and happy atmosphere. Yinzhen's style of play was steady and rigorous, while Yiya's was flexible and changeable. The two of them went back and forth, and the game became more and more exciting.

The game between Yiya and Yinzhen on the chessboard had entered a white-hot stage. Both of them stared at the small battlefield, their minds surging like waves.

Yi Ya frowned slightly as she was thinking about how to break the current deadlock, while Yinzhen looked confident as if he had seen the dawn of victory.

As the last chess piece fell, Yi Ya finally found a breakthrough, and a smug smile appeared on her lips. Seeing this, Yin Zhen pretended to sigh and put down the chess piece in his hand.

Afterwards, Yinzhen looked at the chessboard and said to Yiya, "Your chess skills have improved a lot today."

Yi Ya smiled and responded: "I was just lucky. If you hadn't let me win, how could I have won?"

The two smiled at each other, and the atmosphere became much more relaxed. At this time, the afterglow of the setting sun shone through the window lattice onto the two of them, adding a bit of warmth to the game.

"By the way, Yiya, I have something else to discuss with you." Yinzhen suddenly changed the subject, "In a few days it will be Thirteen's birthday. Concubine Min has not been in good health in recent years. Thirteen has been close to me since he was a child. I want to hold a birthday party for him. What do you think?"

After hearing this, Yi Ya immediately agreed: "It is really touching that you care so much about the Thirteenth Prince. I will naturally fully support your decision."

“I don’t know who will come that day.”

"Don't worry, just treat it as an ordinary family dinner. Those people are just the third, fifth, seventh, and fourteenth brothers." Yinzhen comforted.

Yi Ya agreed respectfully, "Okay, when the time comes, please bring the Thirteen Princes back soon. I will do my best to ensure that the birthday banquet is a complete success."

Yinzhen agreed, and the two of them didn't say anything more. Yiya said directly, "Master, go to bed early. We have things to do tomorrow."

……

A few days later, it was Yinxiang's birthday. Although they only set up a table in the front yard and did not invite others to a banquet, they could not just be perfunctory about it. After all, this was prepared for Yinxiang, and Yi Ya still wanted to gain some favor.

After getting up, Yi Ya began to prepare, first arranging people to decorate the courtyard, focusing on a festive and warm atmosphere. Seeing that the decoration was almost done, she just waited for the princes to come.

Yi Ya invested a lot of time and energy in preparing for this birthday banquet. She took into account the tastes and preferences of each prince and ensured that the food at the banquet included both sweets and snacks that children liked, as well as delicacies from land and sea and exquisite desserts that adults liked.

In order to make the banquet more perfect, Yi Ya also specially asked the kitchen to prepare several small-volume wines so that even children can enjoy them in moderation. She also specially customized a special birthday gift for the Thirteenth Prince.

After the meal, Yinzhen took out the gift he had prepared, a bow and arrow, and handed it to Yinxiang.

Yinxiang took the bow and arrow, and his face showed joy. He had already practiced martial arts, and this bow and arrow was well-made, with light and strong feathers. It was obviously a rare masterpiece. He liked it very much.

"Thank you, Fourth Brother. I like this gift very much."

Yinxiang stood up and bowed to Yinzhen to express his gratitude. Then he drew his bow and aimed at the bull's eye in the yard, and shot an arrow, which hit the center of the bull's eye accurately. The surrounding brothers applauded and cheered, and Yinxiang showed a proud smile on his face.

The Fourteenth Prince, who was standing by, could no longer hold back and said to the Thirteenth Prince impatiently, "Thirteenth brother, Thirteenth brother, let me touch it too." After he said that, he saw the Fourteenth Prince Yinzhen pick up the bow that Yinzhen had given to the Thirteenth Prince Yinxiang and play with it non-stop.

Old Ten, who had been coveting the bow for a long time, also came over, and the two of them looked at the bow, whispering something to each other.

"Master, the concubine sent someone to say that she has come to deliver a gift to the Thirteenth Prince." Su Peisheng said to Yinzhen.

"Let someone in!"

Yuanbao came in holding a small box, greeted the princes and said, "My lord, good luck to all the princes. Your Majesty has ordered me to bring a gift to the Thirteenth Prince." Then he put the box in his hand on the table.

The tenth and fourteenth brothers were very curious and urged, "Thirteen, Thirteen."

"Brother Thirteen, Brother Thirteen."

"Open it quickly, open it quickly."

So, Thirteen opened the box under the urging of everyone, and saw a colorful wooden block inside the box.

Everyone was puzzled and asked: "What is this? Why have we never seen it before?"

Yuanbao explained: "Fujin said this is a Rubik's Cube. It seems to have been made by Fujin's three young masters. It consists of six sides, each painted a different color, usually white, red, blue, orange, green and yellow. You see, each side has nine small wooden blocks, and the entire Rubik's Cube has a total of 27 small blocks. To solve this puzzle, you need to move small blocks of the same color to the same side of the Rubik's Cube."

"How do we do this?" Now everyone became even more curious and urged Yuanbao to continue.

Yuanbao then demonstrated according to what Fu Jin said: "First, we can try to find a corner block and rotate it to the correct position. Then, through a series of rotations, put the adjacent side blocks in the correct position. The key is to remember the change in the position of the blocks after each rotation, and how to achieve the final goal through continuous rotation."

As he spoke, he demonstrated some basic spinning techniques, such as right spin, left spin, top spin and back spin. The princes listened with great interest, and Yinxiang couldn't wait to take it and try it out.

Seeing this, Yuanbao patiently instructed Yinxiang how to rotate the various parts so that the small wooden blocks of different colors could exchange positions until each side returned to a single color. Yuanbao's movements were skillful, and it was obvious that he had practiced beforehand.

Under Yuanbao's demonstration, Yinxiang gradually mastered the basic rotation method of the Rubik's Cube.

The other brothers were also attracted by this novel toy and gathered around it.

"Thirteen, Thirteen, let me try."

"Brother Thirteen, Brother Thirteen, let me try."

The fifth, seventh, ninth, tenth and fourteenth princes all clamored for the Thirteenth prince to give it a try. Even the usually quiet Third and Eighth princes wanted to try it.

Yinzhen was very pleased to see that everyone was so interested in the Rubik's Cube, and he was also very satisfied with Yi Ya.

As time went by, the brothers gradually learned more complex Rubik's Cube skills under Yuanbao's guidance. They competed with each other to see who could restore the Rubik's Cube in the shortest time, and the whole front yard was filled with laughter.

Yinzhen looked at his brothers having fun and smiled with satisfaction. He knew that Yi Ya not only prepared this gift carefully, but also cleverly arranged Yuanbao to teach everyone, making this gift a way to promote interaction and unity among brothers. He could not just be a glass medium.

But now there is only Yinxiang's Rubik's Cube, so the playful Tenth and Fourteenth said to Yinzhen: "Fourth brother, fourth brother. Can you ask Fourth Sister-in-law's Third Brother to make a few for us?"

Seeing that his brother, who used to have an average relationship with him, also asked him for this Rubik's Cube, he readily agreed because it was not an important thing.

Today's banquet ended with everyone's laughter.
