Fu Mingchi was already exhausted after being disturbed by Fu Yunni all night. When he learned that Ji Yuan had gone to the palace again, he was really angry.
Maybe I didn't explain myself clearly enough that day, so today I must completely draw a line between myself and him.
Yan Jin was asked to drive the carriage very slowly, and it was already noon when they returned to the palace.
Fu Mingchi was sitting upright in the carriage with his eyes closed, resting. Yan Jin suddenly lifted the curtain and looked at Ji Yuan who was rushing towards him with a sullen face. He hurriedly tugged at the hem of Fu Mingchi's clothes.
"Your Highness, we're here."
Hearing the voice, Fu Mingchi slowly opened his eyes, only to see Ji Yuan with his hands tucked into his wide sleeves, staring at him with an attitude of wanting to accuse him.
Fu Mingchi stepped down from the carriage slowly and said lightly, "I'm sorry to have kept Prime Minister Ji waiting for so long."
After saying this, he feigned dissatisfaction as he glanced at his confidant Yu Bai who came forward and said, "You blind man, why don't you invite Prime Minister Ji in to offer tea?"
Unable to guess His Highness's thoughts for a moment, Yu Bai was choked.
"Don't bother your highness."
After all, it was not a glorious thing, and Ji Yuan did not want to mobilize a large number of troops, so he only brought Ting Feng with him on this trip.
Glancing around and seeing no one else around, he said coldly, "Your Highness, please hand over my daughter."
“…”
Fu Mingchi was stunned and looked at Yan Jin and Yu Bai in confusion. Both of them shook their heads in confusion.
"What's Prime Minister Ji up to today?"
Fu Mingchi curled his lips, feeling that this person was truly shameless, exactly as the rumors said. After failing to win him over, he resorted to the stupid trick of slandering him.
"Prince Yongning, I respect you as a descendant of the royal family and will tolerate and accommodate you in every way, but please do not push your luck."
Ji Yuan saw that he was pretending to be stupid and no longer had any intention of currying favor with him.
"If you're interested in my daughter, you should marry her openly. Why resort to such shameful and underhanded tactics?" Ji Yuan said angrily, "Your Highness, aren't you afraid of damaging the reputation of the royal family?"
"What a joke." Fu Mingchi said with a puzzled look: "I am upright and honest, so what is there to be afraid of?"
It can be said that he has seen the sinister intentions of this old fox. He is probably still plotting to make him marry his daughter.
He had been training soldiers in various military camps in Yuezhou since he was a child, and knew very little about the people and things in Lin'an City. Not to mention Ji Yuan's daughters, he could only recognize a handful of the descendants of the royal family in Lin'an City. He didn't know how many daughters Ji Yuan had or what they looked like, so how could he be interested in them?
"Prime Minister Ji, this prince is not interested in your daughter."
Fu Mingchi concluded with a tone of admonition, "As the Prime Minister of the current dynasty, you should focus on managing your family and governing the country. Spending all day studying ways to attract attention is not worthy of His Majesty's respect."
After saying that, he was too lazy to pay any more attention to him and led his people straight back to the mansion.
"You..." Ji Yuan was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
"Master, it seems to me that Prince Yongning doesn't seem to know the whereabouts of the young lady." Tingfeng said with some shame, "Perhaps I am mistaken."
Ji Yuan thought about it over and over again but couldn't understand what the meaning of King Yongning's hypocrisy was. Logically speaking, he really didn't need to do such a thing.
"But where did my Wanwan go?"
Ji Yuan felt extremely regretful at this moment. He had clearly eased the relationship between father and daughter, and Wanwan had clearly agreed to return to her ancestral home, but everything was messed up like this.
Prince Qi was a sinister, cunning, and capricious man. Why would he go to Prince Qi's mansion for no reason?
"I'm confused, I'm confused." He stood there muttering to himself, blaming himself.
"Master, don't worry too much. I will definitely send more people to find the young lady as soon as possible." Tingfeng supported him and comforted him.
"Yes, we must find Wanwan as soon as possible. Now that she has lost the Duke's Mansion, she can only rely on me as her father. We cannot let anything go wrong again."
Ji Yuan sat back in the carriage in a daze, and secretly made up his mind that as long as he could find Wanwan, he would never go against her wishes again.
…
As Fu Mingchi entered the courtyard, Yan Jin seemed to have thought of something and suddenly leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Your Highness, could the girl we rescued last night be Prime Minister Ji's daughter?"
Hearing this, Fu Mingchi stopped abruptly.
It was just because he was too disgusted with Ji Yuan, and the woman last night was completely different from Ji Yuan, so he didn't think about it in this way when he first saw the girl. But when he heard Yan Jin mention it, he became a little alert.
"The place where the girl appeared was not far from the Ji Mansion. Just one night later, Prime Minister Ji came to the door."
There were many obscure words that Yan Jin did not dare to say out loud for fear that His Highness would be sad after hearing them, but Fu Mingchi was so smart that he could think it through.
The girl took so many aphrodisiacs and rushed towards her carriage last night. Her intention was obvious.
It must be that Ji Yuanming was trying to please him but failed, so he deliberately instigated his daughter to use such despicable means to seduce him.
It seems that the chance encounter on Changle Street was probably deliberate.
The people in the Ji family are really more shameless than each other.
"Go to the Marquis' Mansion."
Fu Mingchi gave the order with a stern face, then turned around and left the house, returning to the carriage in a very depressed mood.
Yan Jin and Yu Bai looked at each other, and were both very frightened by the extremely gloomy look of His Highness. Yu Bai quickly gave Yan Jin a look, and Yan Jin quickly followed to drive the carriage.
Fu Mingchi hurried back to the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion and came to the gate of Mu Qingqing's courtyard. He heard several people inside talking happily, and his alertness increased.
My younger sister is naive and ignorant. If she deceives me, it will be a very troublesome matter.
"Your Highness, aren't you going in?" Yan Jin asked in a low voice.
