The government had already known about this matter originally.

  However, no one has made an issue out of this for the time being.

  The next day, Ye Zao was strolling in the garden with a coal ball when he met Gao Gege.

  When Gao Gege arrived, Ye Zao originally wanted to avoid her, but since Meiqiu was still running around, Ye Zao didn't hide and waited for Gao Gege to come over, bowing: "Your humble servant greets Highness Gao."

  Gao Ge grunted: "It's Ye Shi, indeed a beauty. No wonder she has the nerve to turn her back on Master."

  Xiang Xiang supported Yatou's hand with one hand and touched the pearl hairpin on her temple with the other, looking somewhat disdainful.

  Her eyebrows slightly raised, it turned out that this high-ranking lady had such a bold and uninhibited personality. Should I just call her Ye directly?

  "I don't dare, Miss Gao is the beauty. I'm just a humble willow branch." said Ye Zao.

  "If you were as elegant as a willow, I wouldn't be able to look at you, beauty is beauty. However, it's not dignified enough, and that's my fault." Gao Gege smiled: "You're just a concubine, being charming is good, if you were dignified, that would be unbecoming."

  After saying that, Gao Gege couldn't help but laugh heartily at herself.

  Ye Zao lowered his head and didn't speak, thinking to himself, "This temperament is good."

  Let's wait and see who will be unlucky after Li gives birth to a child.

  "Alright, this garden isn't a place for you to stay, go back." Gaoge sat down on a stone bench to one side and waved her hand, shooing Ye Zao away like she was swatting at flies.

  Ye Zao made a face, Ah Yuan picked up the coal ball and respectfully retreated.

  Out of the garden, back to Jin Yu Ge, Ah Yuan said: "Miss, don't be angry, this Gao Ge is also overdoing it. Fu Jin and Ce Fu Jin didn't even hurry to stop Miss from being in the garden, but this one Ge, actually thinks she's someone important."

  It's infuriating.

  "What are you angry about? I'm still just a nominal one, called the concubine liked by Fourth Master, and was bullied by her. After that, can't there be fewer people being bullied by her?" It's better to provoke someone who can't be provoked, with High Consort's temperament, she won't be favored for long.

  "You guys, pay attention. If Fourth Master comes over today or goes to the Brocade Pavilion, be smart about it. I'm saying, since I also have to curry favor, shouldn't I give Highness a little something?" Ye Zao said with a smile.

  "Miss..." A-Yuan's eyes widened in surprise, thinking to herself, "This girl is really bold!"

  "Alright, never mind about this, I'm sweating, going to take a bath." Ye Zao smiled.

  On that day, Fourth Master was busy and didn't come.

  However, on the second day in the morning, Fourth Master came leisurely towards Jin Yu Ge.

  A Yuan was extremely clever. When she saw Fourth Master coming, she gave a signal to A Ling who was about to come out of the house. A Ling hesitated for a moment before going back inside.

  This head, A Yuan has not yet asked for peace, in the house, just heard A Ling say: "Miss, you don't eat rice, it's okay, but you should eat some snacks! Your body can't stand this kind of endurance."

  "I'd rather starve to death than eat this, I'm treated like a prisoner now."

  Mulberry leaves are down and the air is depressed.

  "Miss, let's just avoid Highness in the future. The mistress didn't say you can't go to the garden either. In the future, we servants will be on guard, and when she comes, we'll come back. We're close by, so it's always possible to go."

  Fourth Master waved his hand to stop Ah Yuan from paying respects, and those words were also heard for more than half.

  He beckoned and called Su Peisheng to take Ah Yuan under the tree shade for questioning, while he himself went in.

  Ye Zao saw the shoes of Fourth Master, but she lowered her head and pretended not to see: "I am a concubine, my status is low, I know it myself, but there is no such thing, I dare not fight or rob, just walking in the garden, I..."

  "This humble servant wishes his master good health and prosperity!"

  At this moment, Ah Ling saw Fourth Master and hastily knelt down, still holding a stack of steamed buns in her hands.

  Ye Zao hastily wiped away her tears and knelt down: "I, your servant, pay respects to Master. I didn't know you had arrived, Master; I deserve to die."

  Having said that, he lowered his head.

  It's okay to lower your head, but before that, you still looked at Fourth Master with a very wronged and nostalgic gaze.

  Fourth Master's face didn't look good and was gloomy, but his eyes had a hint of smile.

  He slowly walked over and said to Ah Ling: "Get out."

  Ah Ling was so frightened that her soul was gone. She was originally just pretending, and now she's even more nervous. At this moment, she didn't dare to say anything extra, and almost crawled out.

  Fourth Master saw it and after driving away Ah Ling, Ye Zao's body trembled and then knelt even straighter, apparently frightened.

  Fourth Master sat down in the place where she had just been sitting, lowering his head to look at Ye Zao.

  Ye Zao is wearing a casual outfit today, a lake-green cheongsam, simple hairstyle, and only two pearl flowers. However, she's wearing a pair of small green jade earrings on her ears.

  Her skin was as white as snow, pitiful and lovely.

  "Ye Shi." Fourth Master deliberately called out in a low voice.

  "Here... I'm here." Ye Zao replied in a pitiful and fearful tone, his voice trembling, clearly terrified.

  But of course this was just an act. Fourth Master's gaze earlier, she had seen it clearly and knew that Fourth Master was intentionally trying to scare her.

  Fourth Master grunted: "Stand up and answer."

  Ye Zao hastily thanked him and stood up, taking advantage of Fourth Master's inattention to wipe away a tear.

  Of course she was pretending, how could Fourth Master not see through it?

  "Are you wronged?" asked Fourth Master.

  "Nothing... sir..." Ye Zao bit his lip, with a pleading expression of "please don't ask".

  After all, can't say it's not, right?

  Fourth Master hummed again: "Not playing petty temper with me today?"

  This poor Ye Zao, Fourth Master's heart aches. The thing is, this girl is interesting, she cried, but when facing Fourth Master, she wiped away her tears. She just looks extremely wronged.

  "I was wrong." Ye Zao also didn't deny it, lowering his head and twisting his fingers, hesitantly.

  "Come over." Fourth Master couldn't help but want to laugh and called out.

  It's really annoying here, and if it is, I won't come again.

  Ye Zao hurried over.

  Fourth Master pulled her into a hug, one hand lifting her chin: "You're really bold."

  Ye Zao's hand trembled slightly, and then her long eyelashes covered the fear in her eyes. One of his hands, however, grasped Fourth Master's other hand.

  Fourth Master let go of her face: "Go wash your face and come back to serve."

  Ye Zao nodded and went to wash her face.

  She turned around and a smile appeared on her face. Fourth Master still quite likes her, huh? Not bad, not bad.

  After washing her face, a refreshing scent emerged, just like the willow branches outside in late March.

  Fourth Master looked at her and said, "Is this a good time?"

  "It's all right, it's all right... No, master..." Ye Zao twisted his hands.

  "What? Wrong? What's wrong?" Fourth Master became interested.

  "Good servant... I... lied, nothing's wrong with me... sir..." Ye Zao said, suddenly stretching out his delicate white hand to grab Fourth Master's large hand, looking like he was still in shock.

  "There's nothing wrong with me, I just don't want to serve you?" Fourth Master deliberately scowled.

  Ye Zao hastily grasped Fourth Master's arm: "I don't dare..."
