Chapter 1009 Still Thinking Hearing this, Long Yi did not doubt it and asked with concern: "Are you feeling better now?" "Much better." Qiao Wanyou nodded. Long Yi looked at Yan Funing and said, "Go and take a look at your mother. You know medical skills, so hurry up." There was unconcealable concern in his voice, and it didn't sound fake at all. Yan Funing felt her mother-in-law's pulse again and said in a gentle voice, "Your Majesty, your mother may have been caught in a cold wind when she woke up early in the morning. Now that she has had a hot breakfast, she is fine." Long Yi then remembered that he had to attend the morning court this morning, so he opened a window when he got up to wake up. Although he closed it quickly, the cold wind had already poured in. Now I think it was his fault. Guilt welled up in his heart, and he held Qiao Wanyou's hand and said gently, "It's my fault." "How can you blame the emperor?" Qiao Wanyou smiled gently, "Don't let the children laugh at you."

"Ah." Long Yi nodded. Fu Ciyi took the opportunity to say, "Father, I came here to say that I will leave Beijing for Ling County, Jinzhou tomorrow." "Departing tomorrow?" Long Yi asked. The third son had mentioned earlier that he wanted to go to Jinzhou, but I didn’t expect he was in such a hurry. Fu Ciyi did not hide it from him and said frankly: "The anniversary of Fu's grandfather's death is in February. I am going back to seek revenge." "Sure, let's set off tomorrow." "Nan Yao and Bei Mo also grew up in the Fu family and were taught by their grandparents, so they will go with me on this trip. As for Ning Ning, I will definitely bring her with me." "Yeah." Long Yi nodded. "Then Ningning and I will go back and pack our bags now." Fu Ciyi said, "Nan Yao and Bei Mo, you should also prepare today. We will set off early tomorrow morning." The brother and sister nodded. Although Fu Ciyi did not call out Meng Li's name, his eyes were looking at him. Meng Li nodded quietly. After saying this, Fu Ciyi took Yan Funing and left his mother's bedroom. Fu Nanyao, Fu Beimo and Meng Li also came out. As they walked in the open space between the palaces, Fu Nanyao suddenly saw a woman in front of them dressed in palace maid's clothes who looked very familiar. She narrowed her eyes and said, "Stop." "What's wrong?" Yan Funing asked her. "Sister-in-law, who does that woman look like?" Fu Nanyao pointed. Following the direction she pointed, Yan Funing took a closer look. The woman not far away looked very familiar, so familiar that she could blurt out, "Aying, the daughter of Baozhuang Village?"

"Yes, it's her." Fu Nanyao said, and turned his head to instruct Liu Lu, "Go call her over." Liu Lu said it was the past. Soon, the woman was brought to the master. Fu Nanyao folded her arms and said, "Aying, how are you?" Ah Ying immediately bowed and greeted them: "Greetings to the Fifth Princess, to His Royal Highness Prince Rui, to His Royal Highness Princess Rui, and to His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince." Several people were not surprised. When I was in Baozhuang Village, I heard that Aying was going to Beijing to be a palace maid. I just didn't expect that she really became a palace maid. Moreover, the fact that he could call out their identities accurately showed that he had been in the palace for quite some time. Why haven’t I seen it before? Yan Funing asked: "Where are you on duty?" "In the laundry department, I am here to deliver clean clothes. I cannot come out at ordinary times, nor can I stay for too long. Please be merciful, masters!" Aying lowered her head even lower. She indeed had not expected that the blind woman living in the same village would now become the queen. But on the other hand, my vision is really good, the man I chose at the beginning is His Royal Highness Prince Rui. Thinking of this, I secretly glanced at Fu Ciyi. This glance was captured accurately by Yan Funing and Fu Nanyao. "You're not still thinking about my brother, are you?" Fu Nanyao asked directly. Ah Ying said quickly: "I dare not." She had heard that Princess Rui was the legitimate daughter of the Duke's Mansion. After living in the palace for a long time, she finally understood that fate is sometimes determined from the moment one is born. She was just a little palace maid, there was no need to waste too much time and energy on her. Fu Ciyi didn't want to pay any more attention to her, so he just pulled Yan Funing's hand and left. Fu Beimo warned A Ying: "You have done so many wrong things before. Now that you are in the palace, you must use your brain." Ah Ying nodded hurriedly: "I know." On this side, the lesson is still being taught. On the other side, Fu Ciyi and Yan Funing walked out of the palace. The couple did not return to the palace, but went straight to Yan's house. When they arrived at Yan's house, they went directly to the South Garden and ordered their servants to go to the East Garden to invite the old Duke. When Yan Cheng and Hong Qingyi heard that their youngest daughter and son-in-law were going back to Ling County, Jinzhou, they did not object, but only asked them to be careful on the road.

Fu Ciyi agreed. Not long after, the old Duke came to Nanyuan. After learning about his grandson-in-law's purpose of returning to Ling County, and hearing about the characters of Mr. and Mrs. Fu, the old Duke nodded repeatedly: "I didn't expect that there are such people in Ling County, Jinzhou. What a pity. If they are still around, I will definitely make acquaintances with them." Fu Ciyi said slowly: "Speaking of my fate with Ningning, we had it in the capital when we were young, and also in Ling County. One day, my grandfather saw a girl crying beautifully on the street, and he decided that I should marry her. She was Ningning." The old Duke laughed out loud when he heard this: "How could there be such a fate? I told you, it's a good thing for a girl to cry." Like her grandmother. That day, after having lunch at the Duke's Mansion, the young couple went to East Third Street. Arriving at East Third Street, Yan Funing went to Chengwen Building first. After explaining her purpose, she said, "Uncle, aunt, Brother Chengwen, during this period of time, the business of East Third Street and Fufeng Restaurant will be handed over to you." Liu Song said, "Don't worry, my girl." Then he smiled and sighed, "We were unable to return to Ling County during the New Year, and I wonder how Liu Ji is doing?" Yan Funing said, "Uncle, I will go and take a look. I believe that Manager Jin is managing it very well." Liu Song nodded with relief. He took out a small box and said, "Girl, please help me bring this to the daughter of Zhu Rou Yu's family." "What my aunt thought of, my mother also thought of." "The Queen has thought of this too?" "Exactly." He smiled happily and said, "Then the Queen and I have the same idea." "It's a pity that I can't go back with you, otherwise I would definitely go to the market in Qingshan Town to show off." Liu Chengwen said with a smile. He has to manage the entire East Third Street and Fufeng Restaurant, so he is really busy now. I just can't spare the time. Yan Funing giggled at what Liu Chengwen said: "Brother Chengwen, do you still want to show off at Qingshan College?" "Isn't that right?" Liu Chengwen said proudly, "Not only am I doing well in business now, but His Royal Highness Prince Rui is my brother-in-law, and Princess Rui is my sister." What could make him more proud than this? After explaining the matter, the young couple proposed to return to the palace. He said, "Have dinner at the restaurant before going back." Yan Funing smiled and said, "No, aunt, we still have to go back and pack our bags." The couple returned to the palace and began to pack their bags. It was not until the evening that Fu Ciyi called Leng Feng and Leng Ying to the study. "Ningning and I will be away for at least a month, and at most two months. Do you understand your responsibilities during this period of time?"
