"The story goes back forty years ago. At that time, the Prince of Jin was about five years old, and the Emperor, then still a prince, was already in his twenties. These two royal brothers were the eldest and the youngest, and there was a significant age difference between them." Yan Cheng said slowly, "At that time, your grandfather supported the eldest prince, and in doing so, he offended the other one."
Hong Qingyi said, "The feud between the Prince of Jin's Mansion and the Yan family had already existed before my mother married into the Yan family."
Yan Cheng nodded: "As the Prince of Jin grows older, his desire for power grows stronger, and his hatred for our Yan family grows stronger."
Hong Qingyi continued, "He once said that the Jin Palace and the Yan family would never intermarry. His son would never marry a Yan family girl, and his daughter would never marry a Yan family boy."
The couple saw their little daughter eating porridge very slowly and they couldn't help but worry.
"Son, if you feel sad, tell your parents."
Hong Qingyi gently touched her daughter's hair.
Yan Funing pulled the corners of her lips apart and forced a smile: "Mom and Dad, I'm fine."
What she really wanted to know was why he used the fact that the Yan family privately raised soldiers to force her into marriage.
He naturally had his reasons for not revealing his identity.
But if he was plotting something because of his status and used the secret of the Yan family's private army, and then he could punish her and the Yan family at the same time, her heart would really ache.
Outside the dining room, footsteps were heard.
Soon, a servant came in and bowed, saying, "Master, Madam, the old master wants to see you."
The couple had no choice but to go to Dongyuan.
Yan Funing was drinking her bird's nest porridge slowly when she suddenly heard voices coming from outside the dining room.
Yan Ruwei: "Our Yan family has such a deep grudge against the Jin Palace, what should we do if we are already married?"
Yan Dairou: "What else can I do? Divorce. It's not like I haven't divorced before."
The sound is quite loud.
Yan Funing was in no mood to pay attention to clown-like people.
She was eating porridge in the Nanyuan dining room. It was snowing today, and most ladies would have been too busy hiding in their rooms, but these two people seemed to be unable to sit still and were deliberately trying to irritate her.
If she got angry, they would really succeed.
Caiyu was furious.
He immediately rolled up his sleeves, walked to the dining hall corridor, grabbed a shovel, shoveled a shovel of snow, and threw it all over Yan Ruwei and Yan Dairou's heads and faces.
"You are just a slave, don't you want to live?" Yan Dairou patted the snow on her body and said sharply.
Caiyu was not afraid at all and walked up to them.
"My young lady is the third and fourth young ladies' legitimate cousin. Are you gloating over their misfortune, or what?"
"Also, how are my young lady and son-in-law? Do you need to worry about them? Humph, she is clearly an unmarried girl, and she secretly has feelings for my son-in-law."
"Pfft, shameless!"
Caiyu shoveled another shovel of snow and pretended to throw it again.
"Who's missing you?"
Yan Dairou was eager to argue, but Yan Ruwei pulled her back. The two of them took small steps and walked very fast.
Even if the snow on the road had been swept away, it was now covered with a layer of snow.
Yan Ruwei slipped and fell. Because she was pulling at Yan Dairou's sleeve, Yan Dairou fell to the ground with her feet raised high.
Yan Yingying came over holding her son's hand and happened to see her two cousins lying on the ground, unable to get up. "Why did you fall?"
Yan Ruwei and Yan Dairou didn't dare to say anything. They crawled using their hands and feet, but their feet still slipped, and they slid out of Nanyuan.
Yuen Long clapped his hands and laughed: "Funny, funny, really funny."
"The eldest lady is back." Caiyu greeted her with a smile.
"What's going on?"
Yan Yingying looked back at her two cousins who no longer looked like the dignified ladies from wealthy families.
"This is what happened. The second young lady was in the dining room..." Caiyu explained.
Hearing Yan Yingying getting angry, he went into the dining room quickly.
"These incompetent bitches, their own lives are a mess, yet they love to dictate other people's lives." She continued, her scolding growing more and more enthusiastic. "They deserve a slap in the face."
Yan Funing chuckled, stood up and took her sister's arm: "Why are you here, sister?"
Yan Yingying pulled her to sit down.
"Xinghe sent someone to find me, saying that you were in a bad mood and asked me to help you. My sister-in-law is pregnant and can't be angry. I'm different. If you have any troubles, just tell me."
"Nothing."
Yan Funing smiled at Yuan Lang and reached out to pinch his chubby little face.
Yan Yingying advised softly, "The elders have to make the decision on the matter between the two families. Just wait patiently and see what Grandfather means."
"Yeah." Yan Funing nodded.
She was actually waiting for someone.
After waiting for such a long time, he still didn't come. Maybe he really didn't want to be her husband and wife anymore.
"Aunt, have you played in the snow today?"
"Not yet." Yan Funing pulled his hand, "Brother Lang, will you play with me?"
"Okay!" The little guy jumped up.

The Princess's Mansion.
Long Chi'an was lying on the recliner in the study, with tea brewing beside him, and the fragrance filled the air.
He left early this morning, went to the Prince of Jin's Mansion, then to the Fu family, and then to the Yan family. After being busy for so long, although he was tired at this moment, his heart was full of anticipation.
The people sent to the Imperial Palace and the Hanlin Academy had returned early.
Looking at the sky and calculating the time, he knew that the people he had secretly left at Yan's house should be back to report.
Just now, he brought two followers with him to the Yan family. When he left, he only took one with him, and deliberately kept the other one just to clearly understand the attitude of the Yan family.
This matter really can't be blamed on him.
He couldn't bear to see Fu Ciyi and Fu Ning's relationship grow deeper and deeper. If he didn't take action now, would he regret it after they had a child?
