Ye Wanqing blushed slightly and counted on her fingers, "He's working hard. He's currently focusing on researching new fuels. We haven't seen each other much lately..."
"What kind of new fuel are you researching? I'll help you tie him to the bed and won't let him leave until he's drained."
"I just got home and heard my brother-in-law saying some vicious words. You haven't been to Xiling City recently. Are you afraid that the delicate little princess will drain your body?" Murong Yan stood outside the hall with a frown on his face. His face was black, probably from coal dust.
"Husband, we are going to Xiling City." Ye Wanqing smiled sweetly.
She strode forward and pointed at his face, which was covered in soot. "Why is your face so dirty?"
Murong Yan wiped his face with a handkerchief and smiled innocently. "Well, my brother Jiang Yu and I improved the coal refining process according to the method in the ancient book 'Lian Jiao Ji'. The coal we make now is smokeless and dustless, and it burns longer. I brought it to show my brother-in-law as soon as possible."
Fu Yi stood up and said, "As the mayor of the southern border and my sister's brother, is this what I want to see? Why don't you bring a child to show me?
"Brother-in-law, I hope you can spend more time with Qingqing and work hard to create some fresh life so that my elderly parents can smile. Instead of studying clay modeling here!"
Murong Yan didn't say anything more. "Just tell me whether you want to mass-produce it or not."
"Go to Lao Jiang and apply for funding yourself."
"Hey, thank you, brother-in-law." Murong Yan picked up Ye Wanqing and kissed her cheek, then whispered in her ear, "I'm sorry, Madam, have you missed me recently?"
"Humph, I thought you were going to spend your whole life with brother Jiang Yu."
"Brother Jiang Yu also has his own life. Second Miss Xie is here and wants to take us to Xiling City for a wedding banquet."
Fu Yi sighed slightly, "Brother-in-law Liu is holding the front line, so I'm not worried. It's just...
The Regent of Haoyue Nation will most likely also attend the wedding in Xiling City."
Ye Wanqing and Murong Yan's expressions became serious, and they said in unison: "Brother, do you want to..."
“This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.”
Murong Yan hesitated and said, "But, taking action at the wedding of Princess Lin's fifth uncle..."
Fu Yi slowly sat down on the chair, but his tone was calm, and no emotion could be heard.
"Murong Yan, is delayed justice still justice? I've been waiting for more than two years to avenge my sister.
If I hadn't been unable to bear seeing the mountains and rivers stained with blood, and the old kingdom of Yanyang Kingdom being destroyed, I would have long wanted to march to Yong'an City and hang Murong Yao and Xu Wanrong's heads from the city walls. I would have long wanted to march to Haoyue Kingdom and chop the regent who bullied my sister to death into pieces.
But now I have to sit here, pretending nothing has happened, and review endless memorials on internal affairs!
Even every month, we have to review the revenue account of North Star Port and split it 50-50 with Haoyue Kingdom!"
"Brother..." Ye Wanqing looked at Fu Yi in embarrassment. It was already hard enough for him and Princess Lin to be in a long-distance relationship, and now he wanted to assassinate the Regent of Haoyue Kingdom at her fifth uncle's wedding. How would Princess Lin feel about this?
"I heard that the wife of Mr. Lin Wu of Xiling City is the eldest daughter of the Xue family in the north of Haoyue Kingdom and the number one henchman of the Regent." Fu Yi seemed to be trying to convince himself.
"Brother, I know I can't persuade you to let it go. If it were me, I wouldn't let it go either. But you and Princess Lin are in love with each other, and you did this at her uncle's wedding..."
Ye Wanqing was silent for a long time, and advised: "Why don't you look for another opportunity."
Murong Yan suggested: "We can at least talk to the Regent first, if..."
Fu Yi interrupted him and said coldly, "If Pei Zhiyuan really killed Ah Xu, what should we do?"
Murong Yan lowered his eyes and looked at the black coal ball. In the past two years, he has been devoted to studying and developing the prosperity of the southern border and has completely forgotten these deep hatreds.
His father was imprisoned in Yong'an City and his life or death was unknown, and his uncle was captured in Beihai Kingdom and there was no news from him.
Are we just going to let this go?
"Fu Yi, a gentleman should sleep on straw and taste gall for ten years, but it is not too late."
"I can't wait ten years!"
Murong Yan was silent for a moment, then said solemnly, "I can't wait either. However, impulsiveness can lead to irreparable consequences. We have so many people behind us, and we don't have many opportunities for trial and error. Murong Yao is not cut out to govern the country, and he will show signs of failure in a few years."
Fu Yi shook his head slightly dejectedly, "Murong Yao is not, but the Liu family is, and the Yanyang Kingdom is still as prosperous as ever.
Not to mention Haoyue Nation. Even without our Wolf Hunting Strategy, they still caused a plague in Beihai Nation. Now Beihai Nation is almost incorporated into Haoyue Nation. In a few years, the Iron Cavalry will be able to set foot in Yanyang Nation."
"So we need to accumulate more strength, more strength, a strength that's an era ahead of them and enough to crush everything."
Ye Wanqing spoke to comfort him, "Brother, my husband, let's go to Xiling City first and then make a countermeasure. Right now, the Regent doesn't know our intentions. The enemy is in the open, and we are in the dark. We still have the advantage."
"Yes." Fu Yi nodded, "Get ready, let's set off for Xiling City."
......
On the other side, Haoyue Kingdom
In the conference hall of the Haoyue Kingdom's imperial court, Pei Zhiyuan sat at his desk, busy reviewing proposals.
The construction of Beizhixing's port, post-disaster reconstruction, suppressing the rebellion in Jiangling Prefecture, meeting with envoys, inspecting the people's sentiments, and comforting the families of martyrs...
I have been working non-stop for more than three months.
