Thinking that she couldn't even become Prince Rui's concubine, Gongsun Man explained with a tearful face, "I originally said that after their divorce, I could give Yan Funing to you. Then, somehow, I let it slip that you liked her. Brother, I really didn't expect it to turn out like this. I was just thinking of something you were reluctant to say, so I'll help you speak up so that we can both get what we want."
Gongsun Sheng narrowed his eyes slightly. "The fact that Emperor Jing was able to succeed his elder brother to the throne shows that he has extraordinary qualities and is certainly no ordinary person. You are just a little girl, and you are careless."
"Brother, what should we do now?"
"Still want Longwenyu?"
"Yes!" Gongsun Man nodded heavily, "I want him to be my man!"
"Since you still like Long Wenyu, find a way to stay with him."
"Then Yan Funing, brother, what are you going to do?"
"Don't worry about my business."
"But brother, I didn't even have the chance to be alone with him. After what happened today, I'm afraid there will be no chance anymore."
"I'll arrange this. You only have one chance, so make the most of it."
On this side, the brother and sister were discussing a strategy.
On the other side, the carriage in Prince Rui's mansion was very quiet.
Yan Funing knew that the current situation was under someone's control, but what neither she nor she had expected was Fu Nanyao's attitude.
Fu Ciyi naturally knew the reason for her silence at the moment, and gently squeezed her hand: "Don't take Nan Yao's words to heart."
"How could I not care? She used to say the same thing to me. Back then, I knew she was angry because I scolded you. Now, I don't owe her anything. On the contrary, she has a lot to thank me for, yet she still says this to me."
Yan Funing was extremely angry.
Fu Ciyi held her in his arms and said distressedly, "I know you are angry. What if you get sick from anger?"
"Forget it, let's not talk about her anymore." Yan Funing sighed. "The actions just now probably angered the Gongsun siblings. The friendly relationship between the two countries is only superficial. What do you plan to do, my husband?"
Fu Ciyi didn't hide it from her and said directly, "Beiqi's purpose for visiting this time is war. Dajing has always valued peace, but given the current situation, war is unavoidable. Since it is unavoidable, we must deal with it and protect innocent people to the greatest extent possible. What I want to do is force Beiqi to send troops first."
Yan Funing straightened up in his arms: "Is he going to use me as an excuse?"
I always feel uneasy.
"Without you, he would have found another excuse. Of course, I don't know what it would be."
"oh."
Yan Funing nodded, responded casually, and suddenly pressed her lower abdomen.
Seeing that she was not in a good state, Fu Ciyi was worried: "What's wrong?"
"It must be my period, my stomach hurts a little."
She had adjusted her condition and now her menstruation was not painful. But this time was different, the symptoms of dysmenorrhea came back.
I think it’s because I was angry just now.
When Fu Ciyi heard this, his heart ached and he hurriedly ordered the car to speed up.
After returning to the palace, he hurriedly carried the person back to the room and took care of him in every detail.
Yan Funing half-lay on the bed, smiling at the man watching over her: "I'm really much better."
Since ancient times, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and between sister-in-law and sister-in-law have been difficult to handle. In these relationships, if the husband stands on the other side, the problem will become more serious.
Fortunately, both her mother-in-law and husband are sensible.
"You need to recuperate." Fu Ciyi said gently, "Take good care of yourself these few days and don't worry too much about other things."
--
A few days later.
News came from the palace, inviting Prince Rui and his wife to attend a banquet.
In the carriage, Yan Funing wondered, "Why is this palace banquet being held?"
"I heard that the marriage delegation is going back to Beiqi, so this is a farewell banquet." Fu Ciyi said softly.
"Just leaving like that?" Yan Funing hissed. "I don't know what Gongsun Sheng's personality is like. But Gongsun Man's temperament is pretty clear. She's not going to give up."
"Just be on guard."
The whole place is in Dajing Capital. Could the Gongsun brothers and sisters really rebel against the government?
When the couple arrived at the palace, many guests were already there.
At the beginning of the banquet, Long Yi said in a loud voice: "The Northern Qi delegation has been here for some time. Since the marriage is a matter for both parties and we adhere to the premise of friendly diplomatic relations between the two countries, since the candidate for the marriage has not been chosen for the time being, it is feasible to postpone the discussion for a year or two."
Gongsun Sheng also spoke up: "I'm sorry for bothering you so much lately. I hope His Majesty the Great Jing and His Majesty the Empress will forgive me."
As he spoke, his gaze shifted from the main seat to the seats below: "From now on, you are all welcome to come to Beiqi. I will definitely do my best to be a good host."
Everyone agreed.
"Okay, everyone, raise your glasses."
Long Yi was the first to pick up the cup.
At the banquet, Yan Funing was always on guard, fearing that the drinks and dishes would be tampered with, but she later discovered that nothing was wrong.
Even Gongsun Man was unusually quiet.
For a moment, I wondered if they were really going back to Beiqi, and I guess they would have to wait for half a year or a year before coming back.
After the lunch, a tea party was held in the Imperial Garden as usual.
Since Gongsun Man did not cause trouble this time, Yan Funing and Fu Ciyi went to participate.
Halfway through drinking tea, Fu Nanyao came over.
"Sister-in-law, I have something to tell you."
"Can."
Yan Funing agreed.
Things had to be talked about openly, at least she had to tell her that she had never seduced Gongsun Sheng.
Fu Ciyi said, "Ningning, do you want me to accompany you?"
"No need." Yan Funing shook her head.
"Brother, can I eat my sister-in-law?" Fu Nanyao asked.
The aunt and sister-in-law walked towards the lake.
After walking around the lake for more than two quarters of an hour, Yan Funing saw that she was still hesitant to speak, so she asked directly, "What do you want to tell me?"
Fu Nanyao hesitated and said, "Prince Sheng is leaving Dajing. I'd like to ask my sister-in-law to help me talk to him. Can he choose me and take me to Beiqi?"
Hearing this, Yan Funing was shocked: "You still want to go for the marriage?"
Fu Nanyao nodded and admitted: "Yes, I like him, he is good-looking, I like good-looking men, that's right."
"It's your freedom to like whomever you want." Yan Funing smiled, "But I can't help you with this matter."
Fu Nanyao asked in disbelief, "Why?"
Yan Funing asked back, "Why should I help you?"
"You are my sister-in-law. You always help me, don't you? Also, Prince Sheng cares about you. He will definitely listen to what you say."
Yan Funing narrowed her eyes: "Who asked you to look for me?"
What if Gongsun Sheng asked Fu Nanyao to find her?
If she gets into trouble and something happens, it will be a big problem.
"No one, I asked for your help myself." Fu Nanyao grabbed her arm and begged, "Sister-in-law, can you help me?"
"When things are going well, I am your sister-in-law; when things are going well, why do you say bad things to me?"
"You are my brother's princess, so naturally you are my sister-in-law. You have helped me so much, I remember it all. Can you help me again today?"
Yan Funing pulled her arm away: "I won't go and talk to you. Whatever you want to do with the Crown Prince of Beiqi has nothing to do with me."
At this moment, Eunuch Han came hurriedly: "Something happened, something serious happened."
"What happened?" Yan Funing asked.
"Princess Man was raped and lost her innocence."
