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, "Hurry up and show your mother a checkup. You know medicine, right? 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 gently, "Your Majesty, your mother must have been caught in a cold breeze when she woke up early this morning. Now that she's had a hot breakfast, she's fine."
Long Yi then remembered that he had to attend the morning court this morning, so he opened a window to wake himself up. Although he quickly closed it, the cold wind had already rushed in.
Now I think it was his fault.
Guilt welled up in his heart, and he grasped Qiao Wanyou's hand and said gently, "It's my fault."
"How can I blame the Emperor?" Qiao Wanyou smiled gently, "Don't let the children laugh at me."
"Um."
Long Yi nodded.
Fu Ciyi took the opportunity to say, "Father, I came here to tell you that I will leave Beijing for Ling County, Jinzhou tomorrow."
"Departing tomorrow?" Long Yi asked.
The third son had previously mentioned going to Jinzhou, but I didn’t expect him to be in such a hurry.
Fu Ciyi did not hide it from him and said frankly: "The anniversary of the death of the Fu family's grandfather is in February. I am going back to seek revenge."
"Of course, we'll set off tomorrow."
"Nan Yao and Bei Mo also grew up in the Fu family and were taught by their grandparents, so they will be going with me on this trip. As for Ning Ning, I will definitely bring her with me."
"Yeah." Long Yi nodded.
"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 didn't call out Meng Li's name, he looked at him.
Meng Li nodded quietly.
After saying this, Fu Ciyi took Yan Funing away from his mother's bedroom.
Fu Nanyao, Fu Beimo and Meng Li also came out together.
As they walked through the open space between the palaces, Fu Nanyao suddenly noticed a woman in a palace maid's outfit 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 blurted out, "Is that Aying, the daughter of Baozhuang Village?"
"Yes, that's her." Fu Nanyao said, then turned his head and instructed Liu Lu, "Go and call her over."
Liu Lu said it was in the past.
Soon, the woman was brought to the master.
Fu Nanyao folded her arms and said, "Aying, I hope you are all right."
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.
Earlier, 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'm here to deliver clean clothes. I'm not allowed to come out at normal times, nor can I stay for too long. Please, masters, be kind!"
Aying lowered her head even lower.
She really didn't expect 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 had my eyes on was the current Prince Rui.
Thinking of this, he 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 quickly said, "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 of birth.
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 for returning to Ling County and hearing about the personalities of Mr. and Mrs. Fu, the old Duke nodded repeatedly: "I didn't expect there are such people in Ling County, Jinzhou. What a pity! If they were still around, I would definitely make their acquaintance."
Fu Ciyi said slowly, "Speaking of my fate with Ningning, we had it when we were young in the capital, and also when we moved to 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 heartily upon hearing this: "What a coincidence! 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, for the time being, the business of East Third Street and Fufeng Restaurant will be handed over to you."
