Fu Beimo said softly, "Isn't that asking you to be more direct? I'll go talk to my brother, and then he'll still have to come and talk to you, right?"
As for asking Father...
Unless he's lost his mind again.
My father doesn't want to see Meng Li succeed, so how could he give him a chance?
Yan Bojian guessed: "Your brother might discuss this with Pang Gaozhuo."
"That's true." Fu Beimo smiled playfully and moved closer to Yan Bojian. "In my brother's current situation, it's better not to use his status to pressure others."
My brother is the best candidate for the crown prince, and we must not let anyone find fault with him.
Yan Bojian laughed: "Haha, are you using your status to bully me?"
"Don't say that, you are my Third Brother Yan."
Yan Bojian's eyebrows relaxed upon hearing this and he looked at Meng Li: "It's not bad for you to be a small soldier in our company. Even if you have connections, you still have to grow step by step."
"Thank you, General!" Meng Li clasped his fists in thanks.
Yan Bojian added, "Since you are His Highness the Ninth Prince's man, follow him or His Highness Prince Rui well in the future. You will have the opportunity to get a position in the government."
Meng Li said frankly: "I still want to do something on my own."
Prove your ability.
His background was not given by others, he wanted to prove himself through hard work.
He had not thought of this path before. Now that Bei Mo helped him plead with the Third Master Yan, he finally figured out the path he would take in the future.
"It's good to be ambitious." Yan Bojian patted his shoulder and raised his hand, "Let's go, Nanyuan is in."
The three of them walked towards Nanyuan while chatting.
Suddenly, a voice came from behind: "Third Brother."
Yan Bojian turned around and saw his sister and brother-in-law coming over. He smiled brightly and said, "You're finally here. These two were just talking about you."
There was no mention of going to the military camp.
Fu Ciyi pulled Yan Funing and walked slowly.
"Sister-in-law."
"Sister-in-law."
Fu Beimo and Meng Li quickly turned back.
The two men came to Prince Rui and his wife one after another, one called them "Brother", and the other bowed and called them "Your Highness".
Fu Ciyi was startled and frowned at Meng Li: "What's wrong with you?"
You know, this kid has been shamelessly calling Nan Yao "Brother" since he was with her, but now he is very well-behaved. Is there something wrong?
Meng Li looked embarrassed and couldn't answer for a moment.
"Do you have anything to say?" Yan Funing, who was also stunned, asked softly.
"How about this, you guys go sit at my place for a while." Yan Bojian suggested.
"Okay." Yan Funing agreed.
Five people traveling together.
Fu Ciyi casually asked, "Since Gongsun Sheng has come to apologize, where is he?"
"Dongyuan is drinking tea and playing chess with grandfather right now." Yan Bojian sneered, "I'm not saying anything, but in the past, the one who was best at making grandfather happy was my sister."
Before his sister returned home, his grandfather, especially him, was extremely troubled when he saw him.
But he didn't expect that an outsider would get along so well with his grandfather.
Anyway, he looked unhappy, so he came out of the East Garden.
I just met Fu Beimo and Meng Li.
Everyone understood the hidden meaning in Yan Bojian's words.
Yan Funing even said directly, "Grandfather, do you really like this Prince Sheng?"
"It seems so." Yan Bojian nodded.
Soon, several people entered the yard.
Yan Bojian ordered Zhen Fengzhen to collect the tea and started talking: "Brother-in-law, this brother Ali wants to go to my place for training."
Meng Li immediately lowered his head.
Fu Ciyi's brows furrowed slightly, and after a moment's hesitation, he asked, "Is there a problem with Nan Yao?"
"Brother, how did you figure that out?" Fu Beimo asked.
Fu Ciyi didn't respond, so Yan Funing spoke up for him, "Ali doesn't call me brother, his expression just now says it all."
Meng Li then said, "I know that my status is too low to be worthy of Nan Yao. Your Highness is the Prince Rui. How dare a servant like you call him brother?"
Thinking back on Nan Yao's emotional journey over the past two years, Fu Ciyi sighed: "Nan Yao is Nan Yao. Since you call the princess sister-in-law, why don't you call me brother?"
The meaning couldn't be simpler.
Regardless of his relationship with Nan Yao, he is already his elder brother.
Meng Li burst into tears: "Brother!"
You have to know that when he followed Bei Mo and called him sister-in-law, he was only allowed to call him Young Master. In fact, he always knew that His Highness was cold on the outside but warm on the inside.
Hearing this, tears started to fall freely.
Yan Funing guessed softly, "Nan Yao has taken a fancy to Prince Sheng?"
Yesterday, when Nan Yao said that she and An Meng secretly went to see the prince of the neighboring country, she vaguely guessed this.
Seeing Ali like this, my guess became more certain.
"Yuan Lian originally wanted to come to the Duke's Mansion today just to meet this Prince Sheng, but after I said that, she decided not to come." Fu Beimo said frankly, "If you ask me, Ali is a simple-minded person. Just because Nan Yao once sewed clothes for him, he likes her wholeheartedly."
Meng Li's tears fell.
Yan Funing didn't know how to persuade him, so she looked at her brother for help.
Yan Bojian immediately said, "A man of integrity should never worry about not having a wife. I'm older than you and His Highness the Ninth Prince, and I'm still single. That's not a problem. The most important thing is that my second son is also single."
The word "bachelor" is too unpleasant.
But when his sister looked at him, he had to say something. Fortunately, he could use the second child as a scapegoat.
"Brother Yan, do you mean that we all have to remain single?" Fu Beimo sneered. "It's okay for us to remain single, but Ali is probably a sentimental guy. He's the one who least wants to be single."
Meng Li wiped his tears with his sleeve: "Isn't it just being single? Bei Mo is single, General Yan is single, Lord Yan is single too, so naturally I can be single too."
Yan Xinghe, who was walking slowly towards them, heard this and said, "Who said I want to be single?"
Fu Beimo, Meng Li, and Yan Funing all pointed at Yan Bojian.
Yan Bojian chuckled and said, "Second brother, what are you doing in my yard?"
Yan Xinghe glared at his brother and said, "I heard that my sister and brother-in-law were coming, so my grandfather ordered me to come and invite them."
"To the front yard or the east garden?"
"Dongyuan, my grandfather is playing chess with Crown Prince Sheng right now."
"Okay then." Yan Funing stood up. "I have to tell my grandfather that I won't be making roast goose today."
Several people walked towards the East Garden together.
Yan Funing and Yan Bojian walked in front, followed by Fu Beimo and Meng Li.
Yan Xinghe made a gesture, indicating that Fu Ciyi and he should walk slower.
"Anything to say?"
Seeing that they had distanced themselves from the four people in front, Fu Ciyi asked.
"Just now, the three of us brothers were watching Grandfather play chess with Gongsun Sheng. Later, my eldest brother was asked to go back to look after the little one, and the third brother, that idiot, ran away early, leaving me alone. I don't know if Gongsun Sheng didn't take me seriously, or if he felt that you and I didn't get along well, but he asked Grandfather a lot of straightforward questions about my sister."
"oh?"
"Don't take it lightly. My sister is a beauty, and if a man outside sees her..."
The words were not continued.
"I know."
Fu Ciyi's voice was light, but upon closer listening, it contained a bone-chilling coldness that was as cold as ice and snow.
Gongsun Sheng probably didn't like any princess, but he liked his wife.
