"Nian En, quickly go and tear her mouth apart. One day, I will be killed by her mouth." Yu Yan pointed at her and scolded her in anger.

Nian En did not hold back, stepping forward and pinching her lips.

Nian An knew that she would be rash the moment she saw a good thing. If she still didn't dare to retort now, she shyly lowered her head and begged for mercy in a low voice.

"Go back to your room, you're not allowed to come out." Yu Yan was afraid that the Ah Lang might not care who he was! Staring at Nian An, he chased her back to her room.

"This servant is wrong, this servant will beat the crap out of you." Nian An slapped herself a few times before she quickly ran back into her house.

"Empress, don't be angry. This is how Nian An is. I'll teach him to you later." Nian En comforted Yu Yan again, using the corner of her eyes to secretly look at the sturdy man that suddenly appeared, and started to ponder about his origins.

Ah Lang only cupped his fists and walked out. When he entered, he did not even greet them!

"He's deaf?" Nian En asked curiously.

"The prince sent them to watch me." Yu Yan facepalmed herself and walked to the side of the cage. Looking at the peacock for a moment, she suddenly felt that she liked it, so she opened the cage and muttered: "You can go out, and walk around the yard, and don't leave it, or someone will cook and eat it, and pull out your fur for your clothes."

Ye Mingyue's clothes and cape should be a set, all made from colored peacock feathers. If she were to act coquettishly towards King Xiao and pull the white feathers out for her clothes, wouldn't she pity this beautiful bird?

White Peacock stared at her for a while, his head cocked to one side. It took him a long time to walk out slowly, dragging his long tail as he paced back and forth in the yard of the white jade field.

"Hai, it's really beautiful." Nian An stuck her head out of the window and shouted excitedly.

"Damned girl, you can't tolerate it for long!" Yu Yan turned her head and scolded her.

"Empress, please let me out, there's no one else." Nian An pleaded with her.

"If you don't come out, I'll make you stay in the room. Nian En and I can still feel its feathers, and you'll die from gluttony." Yu Yan threatened her fiercely.

Nian An was extremely wronged and grumbled in a low voice, "Previously, the Empress said that she would give me five extra taels of silver but she didn't even give me any …"

Yu Yan and Nian En looked at each other and burst out laughing.

Outside the small courtyard, King Xiao and Chi Wang were admiring the Pear Blossom as they came. When they heard the quarrels going on in the courtyard, their expressions changed.

Along the way, the Fourth Wife's Courtyard was silent. The maidservants lowered their heads and didn't dare to act rashly. Only this place was as lively as a vegetable garden! Those arguments made people want to laugh.

"Brother Li Yun, which lady's place is this?" King Qi looked up at the three words "Crane Zither Academy" and asked in a low voice.

"Yu Yan." Yulixiao said hoarsely, he waved his hand and had his men push him towards a different path.

King QI's eyes flashed as he looked at the door that was lightly closed. Ah Lang carried a long sword in his hand and stared at him with his tiger-like eyes.

"This warrior is very brave." King Qi smiled and said lightly.

"His archery skills are amazing. He can pierce the trees with a hundred steps, but he can shoot two arrows at the same time." Yulixiao turned his head to take a look.

"Oh, I have to spar with you another day." King QI nodded, he did not look at the courtyard anymore and followed closely behind Yulixiao's wheelchair.

Nian An ran to the door, took a peek, then ran back, her fingers against her red lips, excitedly saying: "Empress, I saw that the Prince is already there, why don't we invite the Prince to come in and drink some tea?"

"Do you have good tea?" Yu Yan was suddenly in a bad mood and asked indifferently. She lightly lifted the hem of her skirt and sat down on a rocking chair to the side.

Last night's entanglement was not a good thing for her. She did not want to get too close to Yulixiao. The closer they were, the more dangerous it was and the less freedom she had.

She lay down for a while with her hands on her face, and with her ten fingers spread out gently, she looked at the sunlight shining through the leaves and said softly: "Nian En, take a pen and ink, I have finished writing the piece of paper. Today, pass it over to me and tell the owner of Peace Restaurant to quickly return the five taels of silver that he owes me.

"Yes." Nian En hurriedly pulled Nian An in to carry the table.

Yu Yan had already thought about it yesterday, and now only needed to write it down. Her calligraphy resembled the brush strokes of an extremely strong man. If you were to look at those calligraphy, you would definitely not have thought that it was written by such a beautiful and slender woman.

As the entire story came out, Yu Yan was able to restore the truth. This kind of small case that wasn't complicated at all. The lawyer finished writing, blew the ink under the sun, spread another sheet of paper, meditated for a while, and began to write again. This one was a reminder of the important points Wu's father had to say when he went to court, as well as the questions the other party would ask him.

"There's no need to collect money for this bill. If the yamen continues to win this case, let Father Wu speak." After she finished writing, she quietly told Nian En.

Nian En stood there with her head lowered, waiting for her words.

Yu Yan stood up and slowly walked to in front of the White Peacock. She reached out her hands to stroke its feathers and said softly, "Tell me … Milord, speak grandly and be careful of Elder Kong's dust. "

"What does that mean?" Nian An asked curiously.

"Yu Tianqi detests officials from being too deceitful and corrupt. The examination period for officials is almost every three years, and if Master Cui still doesn't get promoted, he would never be able to climb any higher. In this day and age, for those who are not afraid of wearing shoes, a book about the night, and six officials of the imperial court who are proud of their luck, Lord Cui does not dare to go against the trend. "

"Empress …" You are this! You dare to threaten the capital city's prefect! " Nian An's eyes lit up, she gave her a thumbs up, looked around, lowered her voice, and said softly: "Empress, you even dare to call out the Emperor's name, he really likes the Empress right?"

"Squeak!" Yu Yan's face darkened as she bellowed.

Nian An quickly slapped herself, and said with a bitter face: "Empress, actually, we cannot blame this servant. In the past few years, the three of us can go wherever we want to, and do whatever we want! Now that you're locked up here, it's as though you're in jail. You even sneeze in fear of offending your benefactor, aiya, how free! "

Yu Yan looked at her, her red lips tightly pursed. She returned to the rocking chair and used her hands to cover her face, looking at the sunlight through her fingers.

Nian En glared fiercely at Nian An, raised his hand and pinched her lips: "I'm going out to settle some matters, if you still dare to talk back and cause trouble, I'll tell the Empress that it's all your fault. I'll let you go and die, you better remember this clearly!"

Nian An's eyes reddened, she looked left and right, seeing that Yu Yan was really angry, she touched a page on the table and dipped her hand into the tea, then placed it on her mouth and waved at the two of them, then sat down pitifully to the side and went back to embroidering.

"Empress, look at her!" "Don't give her that five silvers for the rest of your life." Nian En was angry, resentful and found it funny.

Nian An turned her head, her tears almost falling out, that small gaze full of resentment, made Yu Yan who was quietly watching by the side burst out in laughter.

Nian An cried as she heard this. The paper stuck in her mouth was full of saliva.

"Empress, don't laugh with her, or else she will return to her original state." Nian En put her hands on his waist, then pinched Nian An again, "Don't cry, your highness heard it, I'll hit your plank."

Nian An brushed her hand away, twisted her waist, and angrily returned back into his room.

Let her be. She won't grow up, she won't grow up well, she won't have worries, she won't have worries, she'll laugh whenever she wants to, she'll cry if she wants to. She doesn't have a heart, she'll live a long life. Yu Yan said slowly and casually as she waved for Nian En to go take care of the matter.

"Then what do you want to eat? I'll bring it back for the Empress." Nian En asked her, she was the one who helped take Yu Yan's silver.

"It's just that the Blessed Paradise has spicy lotus roots and chicken legs. Bring more back. I'm hungry …"

She put her hands on the arms of the chair, kicked off her embroidered shoes, pulled her feet back on the chair, and the rocking chair began to rock gently.

Nian En went in to change into a servant's clothes, took out her order badge, and quickly left.

Yu Yan rocked the rocking chair by herself and closed her eyes to sleep with Nian An sobbing. The warm sunlight fell on her body, giving her an indescribable feeling of comfort and drowsiness. It was as if they had returned to that secluded courtyard … Casual and relaxed …

"Mrs. Yao."

Suddenly, Ah Lang's respectful voice came from outside the door, it was powerful and mighty.

Yu Yan opened her eyes and frowned slightly. What was she doing here?

"Is Miss Yu Yan in?" Chen Yao's gentle voice came out.

"The young lady is here, Mrs. Yao, please wait." Ah Lang knocked lightly on the door, and asked loudly: "Miss, Mrs. Yao is here."

Yu Yan sat up straight, she turned and looked at Nian An's room. Nian An had already rushed out, with her hands by her mouth, she said softly: "Esteemed wangfei, quickly close your eyes and pretend to be asleep, this servant will deal with it."

"Forget it, let her in." Yu Yan shook her head and stood up.

"Whatever, I get tired of her twisting around and around like that." Nian An muttered as she supported her to open the door.

The door opened.

"I heard you fell last night. Are you feeling better?" Chen Yao lightly pulled her skirt, gently asked, and then stepped over the threshold.

Yu Yan turned to her side and let her in, saying in a soft voice: "Thank you Madam for your concern, the prince brought some medicine here last night, it's a lot better. The prince is very considerate, the medicine must have been given by Madam as well, it's extremely effective."

When she spoke, her face was bashful, her eyes full of spring water. Chen Yao turned his head to look at her. Her breathing became a little ragged for a moment, and then she immediately turned his head around.

However, Yu Yan still heard it.

In a lawsuit, she was good at observing others' faces and judging their timing from their subtle expressions. Although Madam Chen Yao had plans in her heart and a plan in her chest, Yu Yan was not an easy person. She was not willing to fight, and did not want to be easily bullied. Otherwise, Yu Yan would really be too lazy to deal with him.

Chen Yao walked into the courtyard and glanced at the White Peacock and asked curiously: "Oh, so the reason why the palace is here today is to gift this to me? "Did the empress dowager give it to you?"

"Un, I guess you must be lazy. Since you're unwilling to open your mouth, you're purposely using it to demean me. Say how ugly I am." Yu Yan whispered as she held the handkerchief to her forehead.

Chen Yao stared at her hand, and said softly: "Younger sister is not ugly, I am beautiful, the beauty that comes from the bones, the seduction of souls, it makes people happy."

"Madam, you're too kind. In this world, who could possibly match Madam in beauty?" Yu Yan pursed her lips and laughed, looking up at her.

This fake, fishy conversation really made her nauseous. Why was she still unwilling to leave? Also, why did she suddenly change from Lady Yu Yan into her younger sister's name? Who allowed her to be so intimate?

The two of them looked at each other for a moment. Chen Yao laughed, gently holding Yu Yan's hand, and said softly: Come, let me see my sister's injury.

Yu Yan did not refuse and sat down on the rocking chair, rolling up her sleeves so that she could look at his elbow, her words full of gratitude.

"Thank you Madam, Madam is truly a genius doctor."

Nian An coughed at the side, Yu Yan frowned and said unhappily: "You silly girl, you don't even know how to pour tea? Are you asking for a beating? "
