Chapter 710 Don’t Think of Me "So fast?" Yan Funing was surprised."I have sent someone to the Fu family. This day was proposed by your mother-in-law. It is indeed a good day. It will bring good fortune to the husband, wife and family." Hong Qingyi turned her head and said to Yan Cheng, "In that case, it was absolutely right for me to customize their wedding dresses and wedding robes early on." "Well, you still have the foresight." - Late at night, Prince's Mansion. The prince, who was sitting in the main seat, had a gloomy face, and several aides were sitting on both sides of him. One of the staff members said, "The clue that Lu Yangping and Prime Minister Cai were selling official positions and titles was revealed by Fu Ciyi. If this matter is investigated further, I'm afraid it will lead to Your Highness." Another staff member spoke up: "In my opinion, now that His Highness has withdrawn in time, even if we want to investigate, we won't be able to find His Highness." An aide on the opposite side shook his head and said, "The private treasury of the Eastern Palace is not full, so the more money the better. When Your Highness ascends to the throne, there will be plenty of places to spend money." The prince frowned, with a flash of hostility in his eyes. If you want to ascend the throne, you will spend more money. Selling official positions and titles is the fastest way to make the most money, and he will never stop.
At this time, the staff member sitting at the bottom spoke up: "Your Highness, I think Fu Ciyi should be taught a lesson. If he is more sensible, he should understand what it means to know the current situation. If he cannot learn from this, then the possibility of him being used by Your Highness in the future is very small." Upon hearing this, the prince nodded. "Fu Ciyi's refusal to marry Prime Minister Cai's daughter shows that he doesn't want to be associated with Prime Minister Cai." The former staff member stood up and saluted, "Your Highness, if he knew about your relationship with Prime Minister Cai, would he be unwilling to join our camp?" Another person said, "Fu Ciyi is quite ambitious and doesn't want to be associated with Prime Minister Cai. Maybe he is young and hot-tempered. In my opinion, it would be advisable to teach him a lesson and test him." The prince slapped the table and said, "First, hint at it indirectly, then hit him appropriately, so that he knows what it means to be a ruler and what it means to be a subject." Several people stood up and clasped their fists: "Yes, sir!" "I heard that Duke Yan's second daughter was betrothed to Fu Ciyi. What do you think of this?" The prince raised his hand and ordered them all to sit down. "A few years ago, when His Highness wanted to choose a Crown Princess, the eldest daughter of Duke Yan was clearly the most suitable candidate, but in the end she married a baron. How can a baron's wife be compared with the status of a Crown Princess?" "That's very true." "Now when it comes to the marriage of the second daughter, Duke Yan still hasn't chosen a member of the royal family." "After all, she is a daughter who was raised in the countryside. Duke Yan might be embarrassed to choose a royal son as his son-in-law." Everyone laughed. The prince pondered for a moment. He had seen Yan Funing from afar once before, and he had seen her again at the palace banquet held for the prince of the Southwest. Unlike the impetuous Yan Yingying, she looks very quiet. Her appearance and figure are first-class. Suddenly, one of them said, "Your Highness has only had the Crown Princess by his side for the past few years. I think it's time for Your Highness to take in a concubine to consolidate your power." As soon as this was said, everyone agreed.
The prince said calmly: "Spread the news." It all depends on which families are willing to take sides. It's just a woman, it doesn't matter who the concubine is. They can't expect to get any love from him. - The next morning, the autumn wind blew gently. The Yan family had breakfast in the dining room. Hong Qingyi said to her youngest daughter, "The wedding date has been set. For such a big event, I think you should go to your grandparents' house in person." Yan Funing agreed: "Of course, my daughter will go to the Hong family later and tell grandma the news." "I'll go with my sister." Yan Bojian said. "Okay." Hong Qingyi nodded. When the brother and sister were taking the gifts out, Fu Ciyi happened to come over. "Why is my brother-in-law here?" Yan Bojian ordered the servants to put the gifts into the carriage. The brother and sister waited for Fu Ciyi to get off the horse. But Fu Ciyi had no intention of getting off the horse: "I have to tell you that I have to leave Beijing in the next two days." His eyes moved to Yan Funing's beautiful face, "Don't miss me." Yan Funing's lips twitched: "Don't worry, I won't miss you." Yan Bojian smiled and shook his head: "Where is my brother-in-law going?" Since his sister didn't ask, he would help ask. Fu Ciyi said, "There will be an autumn hunt next month, and the emperor ordered me to go and inspect the enclosure. By the way, Yan Xinghe will go with me." Yan Bojian suddenly realized: "The second brother and my brother-in-law both made contributions in saving the emperor, so the emperor ordered you to go, is that the reason?" Fu Ciyi nodded: "That's about it." After saying that, he picked up the whip. Seeing that he was really leaving, Yan Funing finally spoke: "There are many wild animals in the paddock, please be careful!" The corners of Fu Ciyi's thin lips curved up: "I know." He immediately kicked the horse's belly and galloped away. Just as the brother and sister got on the carriage, Yan Xinghe's carriage also returned. He lifted the car curtain and asked: "Where are you going?" "To my grandparents' house." Yan Funing stood under the eaves of the carriage. "Brother, are you going out? Lord Fu just said so." Yan Xinghe said: "I was assigned official duties when I arrived at the Hanlin Academy." So I had to come back and pack my luggage so that I could leave as soon as possible. "Second brother, be careful!" Yan Funing said.
"Don't worry, sister." Yan Bojian didn't even look at his brother, he just said calmly: "My sister said that your shares in the Gold and Silver House are lower than mine. Even if it's lower than mine, you have to come back with more than a hair to get it." Yan Xinghe smiled and said, "It's just a trip to the paddock. What's the danger?" After all, they are brothers. This brat always calls him "Second Brother", but he actually cares about him. Yan Bojian also snorted and laughed: "There are many wild beasts in the paddock. During the autumn hunt last year, whose young master had his arm bitten off? Anyway, you have to be alert!" "Yes, I understand. I came back to get the sword." Luggage comes second, weapons come first. Seeing that he knew what was going on, Yan Bojian took Yan Funing into the carriage and headed for the Hong family. A servant first delivered the news that the Yan brothers and sisters were going to the Hong family to Mrs. Hong's ears. Upon learning that her granddaughter was coming, Mrs. Hong called out her grandchildren and had them wait with her in the main hall. More than half an hour later, when the Yan siblings arrived at the main hall of the Hong family, they saw their cousins sitting in an orderly manner. This scene was quite similar to the one that Yan Funing had seen last time. Even Hong Li, who refused to meet him last time, sat upright this time. "Hello, grandma!" The brother and sister bowed. "Okay, okay." Madam Hong smiled and waved at Yan Funing, "Girl, grandma has taught your second cousin a lesson. If you have anything to say to him, grandma will have someone make room for you." Hearing this, Yan Bojian folded his arms and looked at Hong Li with an air of excitement: "You are so arrogant, are you going to change your mind and want to marry my sister?" Hong Li lowered his eyes and said nothing. Yan Bojian laughed: "No way, I really guessed it right? Tsk tsk tsk tsk ..." Madam Hong said in a low voice: "Bo Jian, don't talk to your second cousin like that." Yan Funing obediently walked to the side of Old Madam Hong and called softly, "Grandma, the Emperor has granted marriage to Master Fu and me. The wedding date is set for October 8th."
