After driving for more than ten days, we passed through Pengzhou.
One day, Yan Funing lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked at the scenery outside: "Husband, we have arrived in Pengzhou."
Fu Ciyi said calmly: "Yeah."
She looked outside through the curtain of the car she had opened, and saw that there was no water in the land.
It can be seen that the previous flood prevention projects were well done.
Suddenly, many people appeared in the fields along the way, and some of them recognized Yan Funing who was lifting the curtain of the car.
"This is Madam Fu!"
As soon as these words were spoken, someone else noticed Yan Funing and shouted loudly, "Mrs. Fu is here!"
"Mrs. Fu is here!"
"Then Master Fu must be here too."
The people's voices were getting louder and louder.
They even stopped two carriages.
The speed of the action is astonishing.
The incident happened in an instant. Yan Funing was stunned by the scene before her. She quickly retracted her hand and said to Fu Ciyi, "Husband, I think I lifted the curtain to look, which is not right."
"It's okay." Fu Ciyi comforted her gently.
At this moment, Wu Rubo, who had been surveying the terrain and water flow, strode over and asked the people, "What did you just say?"
Someone excitedly said, "Master Fu and the young lady are here to see us."
After the people finished speaking, they all saluted the carriage: "Master Fu, Madam Fu, we are honored."
Fu Ciyi took Yan Funing out of the car: "Quick, no need to be polite."
Fu Beimo and Fu Nanyao, who were in another car, also got out.
Wu Rubo thought for a moment, raised his arm and said to the crowd, "You all don't know, Master Fu is no longer Master Fu."
"Ah?" an old man was puzzled. "Master Fu is such a good official, how come he is not a master anymore?"
Everyone came forward, looking at him with concerned eyes and anxious expressions.
Wu Rubo quickly explained with a smile: "As everyone knows, a new emperor ascends the throne every New Year. Our new emperor is Master Fu's biological father, so the Master Fu in front of us should now be His Royal Highness the Prince."
At the beginning of the new year, the imperial court issued an edict.
The news of the new emperor's ascension to the throne naturally spread throughout the country and even to neighboring countries at the fastest speed.
As the head of Pengzhou Prefecture, he naturally knew about this situation.
At this time, Fu Xi spoke up: "This gentleman is right. I would like to remind you that my highness has been named Prince Rui by the Emperor."
Since the other party knows his master and knows his master's identity.
Then there is nothing to hide about the master's current identity.
Upon hearing this, Wu Rubo took the lead in greeting: "Your Highness Prince Rui and Princess Rui!"
"I greet His Royal Highness Prince Rui and Princess Rui!"
Fu Ciyi raised his hand: "Get up quickly."
Everyone stood up.
Wu Rubo came forward with a smile and said, "Your Highness, look at Pengzhou. It's no longer flooded and is thriving. What do you think?"
Fu Ciyi nodded: "Thank you for coming out every day to work with the people."
How many state capitals would be so connected to their people?
This is what it means to be a pillar of the court.
After receiving the affirmation, Wu Rubo's smile became even wider. He glanced at the sky and said, "Your Highness, it's getting late. It's time for lunch. You and the princess should follow me into the city for a simple meal."
"No." Fu Ciyi declined politely, "I have to go back to Jinzhou."
"Going back to Jinzhou to take care of important matters?"
"Um."
Wu Rubo said, "Then please, when you return to the capital, please come to Pengzhou City for dinner. Many people would like to see you and the princess!"
Upon hearing this, Fu Ciyi looked at Yan Funing.
Wu Rubo quickly said to Yan Funing, "Princess, please help me explain."
Yan Funing smiled and said, "Since Lord Wu has invited us, we will definitely go if we have time on our way back." As she spoke, she looked back at Fu Ciyi, "Okay, husband?"
Fu Ciyi nodded.
"That's great!" Wu Rubo said loudly, "His Royal Highness Prince Rui has promised that when he passes by Pengzhou on his way back to the capital, he will come into Pengzhou City for a drink and a meal."
"good!"
"Very good!"
The people cheered.
Wu Rubo said, "I will wait and welcome His Royal Highness Prince Rui and Princess Rui to come!"
Fu Ciyi said softly, "We are in a hurry, so let's not talk about it now. We'll meet again another day."
Wu Rubo responded and led the people to line the streets to see him off.
Watching the two carriages drive away.
Someone whispered, "How did Master Fu become a prince?"
Wu Rubo said, "How can we not call him that? Master Fu is a member of the royal family. He is the son of the Prince of Jin, and his original name is Long Wenyu. We cannot call him by his taboo name casually. I just said it once for everyone to hear, so just remember it."
"Sir, we understand." The people were curious. "Please continue."
"The late emperor was the eldest brother of the Prince of Jin. After the late emperor's death, the Prince of Jin succeeded to the throne, and our Master Fu naturally became the prince."
"I see."
"Will our Lord Fu become the crown prince?" someone asked curiously.
Wu Rubo glanced at him and said, "It's a good thing you asked this question not in the capital. If someone with ulterior motives heard it, it would be a disaster." He laughed heartily and said, "I also want him to be the crown prince."
In this way, his official position will naturally rise along with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
"Master Fu is our Master Fu, and the people of Pengzhou naturally hope that he will become the crown prince."
"Yes, Master Fu is already His Royal Highness Prince Rui. He only has two carriages for such a trip, and only a few followers. Such a good prince is rare in the world."
"That is to say, even a seventh-rank official from another state would have to come to Pengzhou City to show off his power. Someone like Lord Fu is indeed rare."
"The world deserves a prince as good as Lord Fu!"
