Chapter 784: Choosing Someone to Deal With
Similarly, the Yan and Pang families also had eunuchs deliver new official uniforms and official the morning court session, the emperor once again praised the four bear-catching men, discussed their new official positions, and said that the court must work together in the future.
In this long speech, there was no mention of the prince catching the bear.
The prince had a twisted expression on his face and tried his best to remain calm.
After the court session, he took the initiative to walk towards Fu Ciyi: "Master Fu, I have something to say."
The two walked to the open space in front of the temple.
The place where they stood was empty, but no one approached them.
"Congratulations, Master Fu, for becoming the Prime Minister. Since you are the Prime Minister, I think it is mainly because Father wants you to assist the new emperor in the future. What do you think?"
"My specific duties will be appointed by the Emperor."
How could Fu Ciyi not understand his motives?
As soon as the court session ended, he couldn't wait to talk to him, as if telling the ministers beside him that the new prime minister was on the side of the prince.
The prince's expression froze for a moment, but he quickly smiled and said, "Master Fu is right."
Fu Ciyi bowed calmly and said loudly, "Your Highness, I accept your congratulations. I have other things to do, so I will take my leave now."
The sound was quite loud and many ministers heard it.
The suspicion that the new Prime Minister would stand on the side of the Crown Prince immediately dissipated.
Eunuch Song stood at the palace gate for a moment, then turned around with a smile and hurriedly chased the emperor who was now heading towards the imperial study.
A moment later, he caught up: "Your Majesty."
The emperor tilted his head: "Why, do you disappoint me?"
"Master Fu loudly stated his attitude..."
Eunuch Song narrated what he had just seen.
"Yes." The emperor was pleased, "Any troublemaker is usually upright."
On this side, the emperor was relieved.
On the other side, the prince returned to the prince's mansion and was very unhappy.
Cai Mushi had been waiting for him at the Prince's Mansion early in the morning, and when she saw him come back, she immediately went to greet him.
"Why are you here?" the prince wondered.
"Your Highness did not send any message yesterday. I thought that instead of letting Your Highness go to the Cai family, it would be better for me to come to the Prince's Mansion."
She reached for his arm, but it was empty.
The Crown Princess stood far away in the corridor, feeling very sad when she saw Cai Mushi sticking to the Crown Prince.
The prince snorted as he caught a glimpse of the woman in the corridor. He said to Cai Mushi, "You go back first. I will send someone to inform you if there is any news."
Cai Mushi looked towards the corridor provocatively, and said with a sweet smile that she was leaving.
The Crown Princess then slowly walked to the side of the Crown Prince and asked: "Your Highness, are you planning to take a concubine, or vacate my position as the principal wife?"
"I am just playing along. Besides, what is your duty? Do you want me to teach you?"
After saying this, the prince flicked his sleeves and left.
The Crown Princess laughed at herself, thinking that there were already enough beautiful girls in the palace.
But they have no status.
She had thought that as the Crown Princess, she should be the only one in his heart. But now seeing Cai Mushi, she realized that the Crown Prince and she were just playing around.
For a man like this, I'm afraid no woman can enter his heart.
The prince went to the study and consulted with his staff.
"Fu Ciyi is really too much of a bully. I gave him a chance, but he refused. I'm leaving court today..."
After hearing this, the staff analyzed: "Your Highness, in such an occasion, even if Lord Fu was interested, he would not say it directly."
Another person said, "Your Highness, from what I heard, Master Fu did not agree, but he did not refuse either."
"I am the crown prince and he is the prime minister. Is it so difficult to simply express my attitude?" The crown prince snorted, "You all should think of a way for me to force him to stand on my side."
He wanted a clear answer.
"Master Fu has been warned before, so it is not appropriate to confront him head-on now. I think we can start with his family."
"I think so too. Lord Fu's wife is the daughter of the Yan family. The Yan family is not easy to mess with. I think we can start with his mother and siblings."
The prince nodded and said, "It is said that his mother is blind, his sister is lame, and his brother is mentally retarded. Let's choose one of them to deal with."
"Your Highness, Lord Fu's sister's legs and feet have now recovered." "Then start with his mother and brother." The prince patted the armrest of the chair.
"Yes, Your Highness."
-
at dusk.
Fu Ci Yi returned home after finishing his duty.
It happened that someone from the Yan family came.
"Sir, my Duke invites you and Miss to stay for a few days."
Fu Ciyi nodded: "It's time to go."
Since he and Yan Funing got married, he has never lived in Yan's house.
Wan Niang smiled and said, "It's time to move in. I boasted before that I could stay here for twenty days a month. Listen, your father-in-law has sent someone to invite you."
Fu Ciyi continued, "Mother is right. I'll tell Fu Ning and go to the Yan family later."
The Yan family member smiled and said, "Then I will take my leave and will wait for you and your daughter to return home at the Yan family."
Fu Ciyi ordered his servants to see the guest off.
He returned to the main courtyard and found Yan Funing.
"Put some clothes on. From today on, you and I will live in the Yan family."
Yan Funing was surprised when she heard this: "You really want to live in my house?"
Fu Ciyi corrected her: "Your home is here. To be exact, I am accompanying you to stay at your parents' home for a while."
"Let me be precise. The Yan family is my home, and this place is also my home." Yan Funing happily tidied her clothes.
The man circled her from behind and said, "You can say whatever you want."
"Hey, I need to tidy up my clothes. How can I do that when you're holding me like this?"
Unexpectedly, the man said, "My wife kissed my heart last night, and my heartbeat seems to be a little abnormal today."
"Really?"
She turned away from his arms and put her ear to his chest.
What's abnormal?
I was about to argue with him...
The man's hand gently pinched her neck, and a passionate kiss followed.
I didn’t let him kiss me yesterday.
Today, he wants to kiss enough.
The man kissed her deeply, and Yan Funing couldn't bear it at all. She leaned on him and pushed him hard.
Fu Ciyi noticed it and pinched her waist tightly to prevent her from falling.
She didn't know how long they kissed. Yan Funing only knew that it was already dark when they got on the carriage.
"It's so late. We'll be late for dinner."
She gave him a glare.
The man chuckled: "It's okay, it's mainly because it gets dark early now."
-
The couple's carriage just drove away from the Fu family.
A figure hidden in the darkness across the street flashed and ran towards the Prince's Mansion at high speed.
Less than half an hour later, the secret guard arrived in front of the prince and said, "Your Highness, according to investigation, Lord Fu and his wife went to stay at the Yan family for a while."
The prince asked, "Stop for a while? Are you sure?"
The secret guard nodded, "Yes, it is said that before Lord Fu proposed to marry the second young lady of the Yan family, he had expressed his intention to stay at the Yan family every month in the future. The main reason is that the second young lady of the Yan family was found by the Duke and his wife not long ago, and they want to keep her for two more years. After Lord Fu made this statement, the Duke and his wife agreed to marry their daughter."
The prince laughed: "So that's the case."
In this case, it would be too easy to start with Fu Ciyi's family.
Fu Ciyi's mother is blind and can't see, so she is the easiest to deal with.
The fact that he was willing to live in the Yan family showed that Fu Ciyi was filial to his parents-in-law. Such a person would probably be even more filial to his mother.
Fu Ciyi will only get anxious if his mother is disturbed.
Only in this way will he know who will own the world of Dajing in the future, and he will have to accept it even if he doesn't want to.
Thinking of this, the prince sneered and said, "Find me some female doctors."
