The male and female protagonists are drawn into the conspiracy of the Hundred Lotus Sect, with all conspiracies pointing directly to the Zhao family's "Tianbao Pavilion"...
In the...
Fu Lei said, "Let's keep our voices down. Today, I was almost beaten to death by my tigress sister. If she finds out what we're like now, she'll definitely go crazy again. Brother-in-law, what's your name?"
"Shock."
Prime Minister Fu smiled and said, "I don't know if the baby in her belly is a boy or a girl."
Jiu Ye smiled.
"Have you thought of a name? Brother-in-law?" Fu Lei asked
Jiu Ye said: "I haven't asked Tong'er about this yet."
"Do we even need to ask her?" Prime Minister Fu drank some wine. "You should decide the name of your offspring. You're a man!"
Fu Lei said: "Dad, your daughter gets violent over a disagreement, and her whipping scares even her son. Look at this inn, the tables and chairs are all broken, but they are all her work. If my brother-in-law hadn't asked, it would have been very difficult."
As he spoke, Fu Lei raised his wine bowl and whispered, "Come on, let's go one by one."
Jiu Ye, King Hui, and Prime Minister Fu drank a bowl of rice, and King Hui poured wine for everyone.
Prime Minister Fu chewed his peanuts slowly and said, "At first, I only taught her calligraphy and reading, but you, as her elder brother, insisted on teaching her how to wield a spear and a staff."
"Oh, she didn't learn it from me. It was her sworn brother in Dayan who taught her."
Prime Minister Fu asked, "Who is her sworn brother?"
Jiu Ye said: "One of my subordinates."
Fu Lei asked: "Aren't you jealous?"
King Hui said, "How could the Ninth Prince not be jealous? He doesn't even like me, let alone a sworn brother who taught me whip techniques and footwork."
"Then..." Fu Lei was even more confused.
Prime Minister Fu said, "You've indulged her too much. How could you do this? Just tell me why she felt different when she saw Wutong today. She felt that you were here! That's why she's not even afraid of her father."
King Hui said, "Uncle Ninth is completely controlled by her. He does whatever she tells him to do. My concubine is still in jail because she offended Tong'er."
Jiu Ye stared at King Hui, and King Hui fell silent.
"You can't do this anymore, you can't do this anymore," said Prime Minister Fu. "If you keep pampering her like this, she'll definitely turn the tables sooner or later. Women should always look up to men. You can't let her ride on your coattails."
Fu Lei lowered his voice, glanced upstairs, and continued: "You are a man who has slaughtered countless cities, what are you afraid of her doing?"
Jiu Ye smiled faintly and said, "She is young, it's not a big deal, so why not give in to her?"
"You should know that she has a childhood marriage, Master Jiu." Prime Minister Fu asked with a smile. This was the name Prime Minister Fu addressed him a few years ago when Lu Zhenzhi represented Dayan on a diplomatic mission to Dian.
"I wouldn't dare. Prime Minister Fu can call me Zhenzhi, or I can call me by my given name, Lujin."
Prime Minister Fu chuckled. "It's just a title. How do you solve this problem? If you want to cancel the engagement, it will inevitably cause conflict between two countries, or even multiple countries. You, second only to the emperor, are above everyone else. Why do you like my daughter? Is it because she's young? Do you like her? Do you love her?"
Jiu Ye thought for a moment and said, "Love."
"I don't believe it."
"The younger generation loves her more than she loves the younger generation."
"Haha, I don't believe it." Prime Minister Fu laughed, "What if I insist on taking her away?"
King Hui said, "I'm afraid no one can abduct the Ninth Prince's men within the territory of Great Yan."
Prime Minister Fu laughed and said, "You two are sleeping together in such an unclear way. Where does this put Tong'er's reputation?"
Jiu Ye didn't respond.
Fu Lei said, "Since she is pregnant with your child, she should go back with us first. One day you can come to her house and ask for her hand in marriage, and then bring them back."
Jiu Ye would never believe these two people. If Fu Tong'er went with them, at best, they would be separated from each other forever. Given Fu Tong'er's personality, if things went wrong, they would be separated forever!
At this time, Fu Tong'er had already finished counting in bed, but Jiu Ye had not come back for a long time, so she put on Jiu Ye's cloak and opened the door. Because the guests downstairs had been scared away long ago, at this time, only Jiu Ye's table was left.
"Great! These bastards are actually so good to each other behind the scenes! They even drink together!"
Deputy General Xiao said, "Miss Fu, please calm down. Actually, Master Jiu, Master Jiu drank no less than six bowls of wine."
General You Yi looked at Xiao Pu in surprise when he heard this. Military Advisor Xu was laughing beside him.
Fu Tong'er wrapped herself in Jiu Ye's cloak and hurried downstairs.
