Yan Funing naturally agreed: "Okay."
As soon as he finished speaking, he yawned.
"Aunt, are you still sleepy?"
Yuanlang's words were muffled because his mouth was covered, but it did not prevent others from hearing.
Gongsun Sheng's eyes had been on Yan Funing intentionally or unintentionally. When he heard the child say this, he looked directly at her.
Fu Ciyi calmly stood in front of Yan Funing to block Gongsun Sheng's gaze, then quickly bent down and picked up Yuan Lang: "You're a little light, is it because your parents didn't give you snacks?"
When it comes to snacks, Yuanlang pouted and said, "Uncle, please help me speak up. My parents are short of food. I feel so pitiful."
"I can't help you. Come to the palace and stay for a while. Your aunt and I will never let you go short of snacks."
"Hurrah!"
Yuanlang cheered happily, hugged Fu Ciyi's neck affectionately, and did not forget to glance at his mother.
Seeing this, Yan Yingying shook her head.
Everyone went to the dining room.
On the way, Fu Ciyi hugged Yuan Lang with one hand and naturally held Yan Funing's hand with the other hand.
This scene happened to fall into Gongsun Sheng's eyes, and a dark tide suddenly surged in his eyes.
The old Duke introduced him, "Lang'er is my eldest granddaughter's son. He's usually quite naughty, but he listens to Fu Ning and Ci Yi very much. Look at the three of them, don't they look like a family?"
Gongsun Sheng suppressed the anger in his eyes and continued with a smile, "It does look like it."
It's just a resemblance.
It’s not really a family of three.
His people have already found out that Yan Funing and Long Wenyu have no children, and she is not pregnant.
Since he has been married twice and still has no children, it is obvious that Long Wenyu is not a good man.
Things seem less difficult now.
In the dining room, people from the second and third rooms had been waiting for a long time. When they saw the visitor, they all greeted him.
Yan Dairou and Yan Ruwei rushed forward.
The two men's purpose was self-evident, and Yan Yingying saw through it, and warned them in a low voice: "Don't embarrass the Yan family. Also, we came to Dajing to pick a princess to marry to Beiqi. Who do you think you are?"
"Big sister misunderstood."
The two of them finally stopped thinking.
Just as lunch was about to begin, Long Chi'an and Shi Yangyang arrived.
"It seems we came at the right time." Shi Yangyang said with a smile, pulling her brother's arm and squeezing towards Yan Funing's table.
Yan Bojian sneered, "Hey, what are you doing here?"
"Eat." Shi Yangyang wrinkled her nose at Yan Bojian. "Why, can't I?"
Yan Bojian sneered and whispered, "Yesterday you were chasing after Prince Sheng, and today you've come all the way to my house, Shi Yangyang, are you so eager to marry into Beiqi?"
"You?!" Shi Yangyang was dumbfounded. "What nonsense are you talking about? Who can't wait?"
"Haha, it's a pity that you are a county lady, not a princess." Yan Bojian protected the empty seat beside him and did not let Shi Yangyang sit down. "This seat is for my sister."
"Fu Ning has already sat down."
Shi Yangyang squeezed over with her butt.
Because Yan Bojian used his hand to block the chair, Shi Yangyang's buttocks were directly pressed against his palm, which immediately made his cheeks hot.
The two had argued more than once, and others thought Yan Bojian was just arguing until he blushed, so they were used to it, let alone Long Chi'an.
"Fu Ning." He called out gently.
Fu Ciyi glanced over, and Long Chi'an immediately asked with a smile: "Wen Yu, can I sit on the other side of Fu Ning?"
"Shameless." Fu Ciyi used his internal energy to transmit the message in a targeted manner.
Long Chi'an's smile grew warmer, and he transmitted his inner energy in a voice transmission: "Indeed, I'll take this as your agreement."
After he finished speaking, he sat down.
Their conversation could not be heard by others.
Yan Funing simply assumed that someone had agreed to Long Chi sitting on her other side, so she politely asked, "Why wasn't Prince Chi at the palace banquet yesterday?"
"I had something urgent to do yesterday and couldn't get away." Long Chi'an said softly.
"Are you three so close?" Yan Xinghe sat down on the other side of Long Chi'an. "Is it because we share a common hatred and a common enemy?"
"Probably."
Long Chi'an smiled again and turned his gaze to the main table.
At this moment, Gongsun Sheng and the old Duke were having dinner at the main table, accompanied by several masters and ladies of the Yan family.
It can be said that Gongsun Sheng was the only young man sitting at the main table.
When Gongsun Sheng's gaze moved towards Yan Funing, Long Chi'an noticed it and looked over as well.
Soon, the old Duke announced the start of lunch.
After three rounds of drinks, Gongsun Sheng raised his glass to Yan Funing and said, "I came to the Duke's Mansion today to apologize on behalf of my younger sister. I will drink three glasses as punishment. I hope Miss Yan will not mind."
Since the other party had said so and drank three glasses of wine in a row, Yan Funing had no choice but to nod in greeting.
Although it is correct to call Yan Funing the Second Miss Yan, she is now the Princess of Rui.
Gongsun Sheng's address made Fu Ciyi and Yan Xinghe look at each other.
It seems their guess was correct.
Long Chi'an narrowed his eyes and lamented that he did not attend the palace banquet yesterday, as if he had missed something.
The Yan family members nearby recalled what Gongsun Man had said yesterday about wanting to be the Princess of Rui, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
For a moment, the dining room was eerily quiet.
The old Duke had no choice but to smooth things over: "Alright, alright, everyone continue eating and drinking."
The atmosphere finally recovered a little.
--
After lunch, the old Duke was thinking about the chess game that had not yet been decided, so he called the younger generations to go to the East Garden to watch the game.
As usual, in the courtyard, the two players sat in the middle playing chess, while others gathered around and watched.
After just a moment's glance, Yan Yingying pulled Yan Funing's hand and said, "Come on, let's talk privately."
"Yeah." Yan Funing nodded obediently.
The two sisters said goodbye to their grandfather and went to stroll in the small garden in the East Garden.
