Yan Funing nodded: "My third brother saw it too."
Pang Anmeng looked at Yan Bojian and saw him nod. He gritted his teeth and said, "Where is it? Take me there."
Yan Funing said, "Let's go tomorrow."
The two of them planned to catch the adulterer tomorrow.
At this moment, the old Duke called out to Yan Funing: "Girl, come with me tomorrow..."
Old Madam Hong interrupted him and called out, "Little girl, call me grandma!"
Yan Funing smiled and said, "Grandfather, I'll go to the eastern suburbs tomorrow." She turned and called out with a smile, "Grandma."
"This girl really doesn't offend anyone." Old Madam Hong smiled with relief.
Hong Qingyi asked the old Duke, "Father, please have dinner in Nanyuan today."
"He won't eat while I'm here," Mrs. Hong said again.
"I'm partial to eating." The old Duke was unwilling to be outdone.
The two of them walked towards Nanyuan without giving way to each other.
The goose and the dog ran even more happily.
Seeing this, Yan Funing was puzzled and asked her mother, "Mom, is there some kind of conflict between Grandpa and Grandma?"
"It's not a big deal. Your grandmother and your maternal grandmother were good friends. Your grandfather later married..."
Hong Qingyi didn't say anything else, but Yan Funing understood.
Grandma was helping her friend vent her anger.
Old Lady Yan of the East Garden waited until it was dark before she heard that the old Duke was having dinner in the South Garden.
When she heard that Mrs. Hong had arrived, she became furious.
The original wife has been dead for thirty years, and now there are still people helping to make her angry.
He immediately gave Yan Yan'er a bad look: "You only know how to eat, and don't want to think of ways to make your parents pay attention to you."
Yan Yan'er gritted her teeth and said, "Grandma, Yan'er can save herself this trouble."

At this moment, outside the capital, on a mountain road, the emperor, princes and ministers, all dressed in casual clothes, were riding in carriages or on horses, heading north.
As the sky grew darker, Cai Tingzhou bowed and said, "Your Majesty, should we find a temporary palace to rest, or set up camp here?"
It was a rare opportunity to leave the palace and experience the outdoors, so the emperor was very interested: "Let's set up camp here, so we can reminisce about the days of marching and fighting in our youth."
Cai Tingzhou complimented: "Your Majesty's grace and demeanor make me admire you."
At his age, he still wants to experience the hardships of living outdoors. I really admire him.
The emperor laughed heartily.
The order to set up camp on the spot was passed down.
Except for the emperor who had a separate tent, the princes and ministers each had a tent for two.
This was an incognito visit, so the entourage was limited. Only a small contingent of twelve Imperial Guards accompanied him, specifically tasked with ensuring the emperor's safety.
The eunuch distributed the tents to Fu Ciyi and Yan Xinghe, saying, "Master Fu and Master Yan will share one tent."
Yan Xinghe immediately said: "Change someone."
"Everything has been divided up, leaving only two masters." The eunuch was puzzled. "Both masters are on duty at the Hanlin Academy. Sharing a tent like this is a favor from the higher-ups."
Fu Ciyi and Yan Xinghe said in unison: "This kind of care is not necessary."
The eunuch laughed: "Look, after all, they are colleagues in the Hanlin Academy, and they all say the same thing."
After saying that, he didn't care what they said and told people to build a stove and light a fire.

The next day.
Pang Anmeng came to the Yan family early in the morning and followed the old Duke, Yan Funing and Yan Bojian to the eastern suburbs.
After watching the geese fighting in the pavilion for a while, Pang Anmeng and Yan Funing decided to catch them in adultery.
The two girls returned to the car, and Yan Bojian, worried about his sister, followed them.
The car stopped in the woods outside the house. Yan Funing brought out candied fruits and snacks and poured some cold tea.
"Let's eat while we wait."
"good."
Pang Anmeng took off the sword at his waist, picked up a piece of dessert and ate it absent-mindedly.
Who would have thought that by noon, no one would come out.
The old Duke sent someone to call: "Third Young Master, Second Miss, Miss Pang, it's time for lunch."
"Okay, got it." Yan Funing responded and turned to persuade Pang Anmeng, "Let's go eat first and come back in the afternoon."
Pang Anmeng asked, "Do you think I should charge in?"
Seeing the murderous intent in her eyes, Yan Bojian tried to comfort her: "Take it easy. Even if Cai Mingzhi is a bastard, he is still the son of the Prime Minister. Now you can only get the evidence."
Yan Funing also said, "There are quite a few servants in the mansion. It's not appropriate for you to rush in like this."
"Then I'll choose a dark and windy night." Pang Anmeng clenched the hilt of the sword.
"Eat first."
The three of them followed the old Duke to a small restaurant for dinner.
After dinner, the three of them returned to the woods next to the house and continued to hide.
Even though the scenery here was beautiful, the three of them were tired of waiting while eating and drinking.
They waited until the sun set, and only the servants came out of the yard, but there was no sign of Cai Mingzhi.
Pang Anmeng became more and more angry.
Yan Funing had no choice but to comfort her: "Let's take a long-term view."
Yan Bojian also said: "I don't think Cai Mingzhi will come today. We have to send someone to keep an eye on this place. If we get any news, we can come and catch them both cheating."
"Yeah, I know." Pang Anmeng nodded.
On the way back to the city, the old Duke asked Yan Funing, "Why didn't you watch Grandpa fight geese today?"
Yan Funing did not hide it from him: "Grandfather, there is a house next to the woods in the village. A man came out of it. That man is An Meng's fiancé."
"The kid from the Cai family?" asked the old Duke.
"Grandfather has seen it?"
The old Duke snorted and laughed: "A cunning rabbit has three burrows."
Pang Anmeng stood up in the carriage and bowed to the old Duke: "Please give me some advice, old Duke!"
Seeing that she was the daughter of a general and a good friend of his granddaughter, the old Duke added, "We often goose-fighting here, and we did see men coming in and out of that house, but at irregular times."
