Li Youzhen glanced at Fu Mingchi briefly, then agreed in a flattering manner, "You ignorant fool, well done, Princess."
The other court officials also echoed: "It is a blessing for the envoys from the upper kingdom to be attracted to the women of our Great Ye Dynasty."
Looking at this group of spineless people, Zhu Wencai was furious: "I wonder if you guys want this kind of blessing?"
"General Zhu, what do you mean by that?" Li Youzhen said, "Now that the Crown Prince is marrying Princess Helian, we should all follow their example and strive to promote inter-civilian marriages. This will help promote the integration of diplomatic relations between the two countries."
"Your Excellency, the Vice Minister has said it very well." Fu Mingchi glanced at him with a forced smile, "I also think it should be so."
Glancing coldly at Helian Jiu, Fu Mingchi said in a gloomy tone, "Princess, please do as you please. I will not accompany you any longer."
After saying this, he took Zhu Wencai away.
Zhu Wencai followed behind Fu Mingchi and felt that his highness's temperament had changed a lot recently. He asked angrily, "Your Highness, if we continue to let those Daqiu people do whatever they want, Lin'an City will sooner or later be in chaos."
"It's better to have chaos." Fu Mingchi took out a booklet from his pocket and handed it to him: "Since the Deputy Minister and those court officials are strongly advocating for marriage, then you should spend more time with the people of Daqiu."
Zhu Wencai glanced at the names on the booklet and immediately understood: "Your Highness wants the people of Daqiu to visit the residences of the Vice Prime Minister and those court officials?"
“That’s not exactly what they want.”
Fu Mingchi's eyes darkened slightly. "Until things turn around, there's no need to search for me. Have Yan Jin send a message to Yu Bai, instructing him and the Xie brothers to lead 300,000 troops from Huizhou, Yezhou, and Qinzhou to secretly rush to Jiayu Pass and circle around to the rear of the Daqiu Iron Cavalry."
Zhu Wencai guessed that His Highness had already begun preparing for the decisive battle with Daqiu, and gladly accepted the order and left.
The lights were on and the moon was like a crescent. Fu Mingchi looked at the quiet street and suddenly remembered Wan'er's gloating attitude during the day.
Dealing with Helian Jiu these days has already exhausted me physically and mentally. It's time to let Wan'er feel the torment in his heart.
Taking advantage of the night, Fu Mingchi walked quietly towards Ji's mansion.
......
Having just settled Concubine Zhang and Mu Qingqing and their group, Ye Wanshu returned to Mu Cangzhai and asked Chunhong and Xingtao to prepare hot water. Just as she was about to take a bath, she suddenly saw a figure floating in from the window.
Ye Wanshu was startled, and when her eyes met the cold gaze that came towards her, she felt even more uncomfortable.
"Wan'er lives a very leisurely life." Fu Mingchi was full of resentment.
"Your Highness... How come Your Highness has also developed the habit of climbing through windows?" Thinking about her own attitude during the day, Ye Wanshu felt inexplicably uneasy.
"Also?" Fu Mingchi's eyes turned cold. "Did someone else climb through Wan'er's window?"
Ye Wanshu recalled the time when she was trapped in the Duke of Rong's mansion and Gu Tingzhou climbed through the window every night to discuss matters with her. She quickly shook her head, "Your Highness, you are joking. That's not true."
"It's best if there is no one. If I knew that someone dared to do such a dirty thing, I would chop off his legs." Fu Mingchi sulked and sat down on the edge of the bed.
Ye Wanshu nodded repeatedly. Fortunately, he had no chance, and her heart was relieved.
"Your Highness feels dirty himself, so why doesn't he go through the main gate?" Ye Wanshu deliberately stepped forward and joked.
These words directly touched Fu Mingchi's sore spot.
If she hadn't forced me to please Helian Jiu, would I have climbed in through the window?
"Wan'er is really good at making people angry now." Fu Mingchi glared at her unhappily.
"I just wanted to see if Your Highness could withstand the test." Ye Wanshu smiled and leaned into his arms. "Your Highness is angry already?"
Fu Mingchi turned away, too lazy to pay attention to her.
Ye Wanshu curled her lips. "Your Highness, did you come here so late at night just to get angry with me?"
Fu Mingchi said in a cold voice, "What does Wan'er want?"
Ye Wanshu pinched his firm chest and abdomen and said happily, "Of course, it's about enjoying life while you can."
"I don't want to have fun with you." Fu Mingchi said angrily.
Seeing that he was truly angry this time, Ye Wanshu wrapped her arms around his waist and pulled out her trump card, saying delicately, "Please stop being angry, okay? Didn't we agree to face all difficulties together?"
Compared to the last time when he let her go to Lin'an alone and bear all the dangers, Fu Mingchi's heart gradually calmed down at this time.
After all, no matter how domineering Helian Jiu was, he wouldn't dare to do anything to him. Wan'er was right under his nose after all, so nothing would go wrong.
Gently pinching her chin, Fu Mingchi deliberately provoked her, "That depends on how Wan'er coaxes me."
Ye Wanshu kissed him gently on the lips: "Then Your Highness, will you stay tonight?"
Fu Mingchi looked at her lovingly: "Of course, this depends on how Wan'er tries to persuade me to stay."
"Well, I wanted to persuade His Highness to stay." Ye Wanshu glanced at the door from the corner of her eye. "I'm just worried that the Concubine Dowager will be unhappy."
"Wan'er, you're worrying too much." Fu Mingchi smiled faintly, "Isn't mother hoping that I'll stay?"
After saying that, he gently picked her up and walked towards the bathtub. Ye Wanshu hugged his neck tightly. Under the soft light, looking at his face like the breeze and the bright moon, Ye Wanshu couldn't hide her heartbeat and kissed the corner of his upturned lips again.
"Fu Mingchi, I'm sorry for making you feel wronged this time." She apologized softly.
Fu Mingchi smiled and said, "Then Wan'er must make it up to me tonight."
The hot steam rose, and the whole room seemed to be covered with a layer of mist.
Lying in the bathtub overflowing with warm currents, Ye Wanshu slowly leaned into his arms and gave him a long kiss on the lips. After a long moment, she slowly left those soft lips and asked softly, "Is this okay?"
