Gongsun Sheng sighed, "Man'er is stubborn. It's all because our mother dotes on her too much."
The old Duke's face gradually darkened.
I thought Ci Yi would strongly object, but not only did he not, he was so cowardly that it was Gongsun who told him the news.
On second thought, even if Ci Yi objected, Long Yi had a big grudge against him and had long wanted to deal with his Yan family. Now he finally got the chance.
Gongsun Sheng continued, "Second Miss Yan has a good character and a good temper. Now that she has suffered such an injustice, I think she must be very sad. Today in the palace, I noticed that she didn't say much."
Hearing his precious granddaughter's grief, the old Duke could no longer suppress his anger. He put down the teacup, causing the tea inside to slosh out, and his voice grew deeper: "Then divorce. It's not like we haven't divorced before."
Seeing this, Gongsun Sheng was delighted, but his expression remained unchanged. He sighed deeply, "Second Miss Yan deserves a better man to match her."
Hearing this, the old Duke nodded and said, "I don't have the leisure to play chess with Your Highness today."
"I understand," Gongsun Sheng said as he stood up. "I won't disturb Master Yan's rest."
As soon as he walked out of the flower hall, the old Duke's gaze shifted to his back.
His eyes narrowed and he quickly raised an eyebrow.
Although he is old, his eyesight is still good!

Not long after Gongsun Sheng left the Yan family, almost everyone in the Yan family knew that Gongsun Man was about to marry Fu Ciyi as his concubine.
Upon hearing the news, Yan Cheng was furious.
Second and Third Master Yan came to him one after another to talk about this matter, so Yan Cheng ordered everyone in the house to go to the front yard for dinner and talk about this matter.
During the banquet, Second Master Yan said, "Princess Beiqi has now become a concubine, and she will definitely have to fight for the position of principal wife in the future."
Third Master Yan also spoke up, "We're all family now, so we shouldn't be solitary. We're doing this for Fu Ning's own good." Seeing everyone around him nod, he added, "If Prince Rui becomes crown prince, Gongsun Man will become even more restless. She'll definitely leverage the power of her motherland to threaten Fu Ning's position, and Fu Ning will have even more troubles in the future."
Yan Dairou whispered to Yan Ruwei, "If she can't stand the cowardice, she might ask for a divorce again."
"Who said it wasn't?" Yan Ruwei also lowered her voice.
Although the two spoke softly, they were still heard.
Yan Cheng's face darkened.
Third Master Yan actually opened his mouth and rebuked him, a rare occurrence: "What are you talking about? You have no tact. Who knows if this incident is the Emperor targeting our Yan family?"
Yan Dairou said, "Father, throughout history, which prince has not had three wives and four concubines? I would say that Prince Rui will have other women in the future."
Yan Ruwei nodded in agreement.
"You're all bastards." The old Duke cursed. "Ci Yi has said countless times that from now on, there will only be Fu Ning. No wonder you sisters are still unmarried. It turns out you have a problem with your minds."
The second and third wives immediately told their daughters to shut up.
Hong Qingyi didn't bother to scold them. Her eyebrows knitted together as she turned her head to Yan Cheng and said, "My dear, please allow me to go to the palace and speak to the Queen tomorrow."
"Of course I have to say it." Yan Cheng said.
Could it be that the Yan family has to endure this humiliation?
"At the palace banquet that day, I saw that Gongsun Man was a domineering and troublesome person. I never thought that the emperor would agree to let my brother-in-law marry him."
Yan Bojian was so angry that he didn't even have the mood to eat dinner. Turning around and seeing that the second brother was eating and drinking, he immediately yelled at him: "Are you still the elder brother?"
Thinking back to when the second brother was so kind to Yan'er, he even insulted his own sister. Although he regretted it later, it was also because his sister was kind-hearted that she recognized him early.
At this moment, this guy is eating and drinking happily.
Yan Xinghe said calmly, "Based on my understanding of my brother-in-law, he won't allow things to develop like this."
As soon as he finished speaking, a servant came to report: "Old Duke, Lord Duke, Madam Duke, His Royal Highness Prince Rui and Princess Rui have arrived."
"You're finally here." The old Duke said, "Please come in quickly."
There was no need for servants to invite them, as Fu Ciyi and Yan Funing were already outside the dining room.
"Grandfather, father and mother."
"Grandfather-in-law, father-in-law and mother-in-law."
The two of them politely called people and sat down.
Fu Ciyi said directly: "I will not marry Gongsun Man, everyone can rest assured."
Hearing this, Yan Dairou and Yan Ruwei looked at each other and began to envy Yan Funing again.
"Eat first." Lao Guogong said.
Although I have a lot of questions in my heart, it is better not to ask in front of the second and third wives. After all, there are always some stupid people in the second and third wives.
After the meal, he sent away the people from the second and third rooms, but he felt that the mansion was too big and crowded, and it was not easy to manage.
The old Duke simply followed the people from the first house to Nanyuan.
People from the second and third rooms went towards Xiyuan and Beiyuan.
Yan Ruwei glanced at her grandfather's back as he walked away with the eldest wife in dissatisfaction, and said, "Grandfather is partial. We are his granddaughters too!"
"That is to say, didn't Grandfather himself have two concubines?" Yan Dairou also said, "It is normal for Prince Rui to take a wife and a concubine."
"The concubine you're referring to is your grandmother, and besides, it wasn't your grandfather's choice to take her in." Second Master Yan rarely spoke out in admonition, "Even if you envy Fu Ning, you should be united in facing the outside world."
"That's right, you should be more reasonable." The Third Lady also spoke up, "Fu Ning continuing to serve as Princess Rui will also help you find a good husband in the future." Turning to look at her daughter, "Dai Rou, think about your husband taking a concubine. What do you think?"
Yan Dairou said nothing, but the Fourth Young Master's wife glared at Yan Jun and said bitterly, "You're still angry."
I'm still angry now.
Upon hearing these words, Yan Dairou and Yan Ruwei both shut their mouths.

South Garden.
Everyone sat down in the flower hall. Yan Cheng ordered Di Feng to take people to guard the flower hall, and the conversation began.
Fu Ciyi held Yan Funing's hand tightly: "I still say the same thing. I will only focus on one woman in this life. Please believe me!"
"I believe you, but how can you compete with the emperor?" the old Duke asked directly.
Fu Ciyi said, "Grandfather Yue, don't worry about Gongsun Man."
Just like my father said, she is just a woman.
"Ningning and I wanted to come earlier today, but we received news that Gongsun Sheng had arrived at the Yan family first, so we arrived a little late."
Just to avoid Gongsun Sheng.
Yan Xinghe suddenly said, "Brother-in-law, just say it directly."
Fu Ciyi was thinking the same thing, so he said, "Gongsun Sheng refused to marry Nan Yao because he had a crush on Ning Ning."
"Ah?" Yan Cheng and Hong Qingyi couldn't believe it.
Hong Qingyi was puzzled: "Fu Ning is already your consort, she's not a princess, how could Prince Sheng be interested in her?"
"My sister is beautiful, it's normal for him to like her." Yan Xinghe said calmly.
Fu Ciyi turned his gaze towards Yan Honghou: "Brother-in-law has a good relationship with Gongsun Sheng. Brother-in-law, please don't tell me that you want to change your brother-in-law."
The voice is quite majestic.
Yan Honghou suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. "A Sheng once told me that he couldn't find a Crown Princess and asked me to help him. I agreed casually at the time, but now I think about it, he wanted to marry our Dajing Princess. How could I help him with this? Could it be that he had set his sights on my sister at that time?"
