At the Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion, Zhan Yunfu and Princess Cui discussed the preparations for the gifts, list of names, and order for new year greetings, and they sighed when they returned to their own courtyard.
The nanny looked distressed and said, "Are you exhausted, old lady? Can I give you a massage?"
"I have a headache, give me a massage."
Zhan Yunfu lay tiredly on the couch, with her head facing outward, letting the nanny massage her head.
She was not worried about the New Year's greetings, but about Niu Shiniang.
Niu Shiniang said that she had recovered and insisted on starting to practice shooting!
Which lady from a marquisate practiced martial arts during her confinement period?
Zhan Yunfu and Cui Junjun took turns to persuade her and finally got her to lie back on the bed, but Doctor Niu became excited again.
"She's recovering well and can move around a bit."
When Niu Shiniang heard this, she immediately said that she didn't want to lie down, and still wanted to practice martial arts...
Zhan Yunfu and Cui Junjun were both puzzled to see that she could eat, sleep and move swiftly.
Who doesn’t suffer from physical pain when giving birth?
This is too unnatural for her to do!
Then they watched in despair as Niu Shiniang, who had just given birth a few days ago, practiced martial arts.
The confinement woman danced with a red tasseled spear with great vigor and sweat dripped down her cheeks!
But she had a rosy complexion and plenty of milk, and she raised her child to be plump and white.
In contrast, Zhan Yunfu began to doubt her life.
After all, I gave birth to two children. Am I really useless?
Why did Niu Shiniang recover like nothing happened, while she herself suffered so much before?
Zhan Yunfu fell asleep with random thoughts in her mind.
In a daze, I felt the massage was still going on, and someone was rubbing and pressing my temples in circles, neither lightly nor heavily.
Mammy's fingertips were slightly rough and calloused, and wherever her fingertips passed, there was a tingling sensation. This feeling was somewhat familiar...
etc!
Not Mammy!
She suddenly opened her eyes and was shocked to see Fu Zhonghai's face so close to her.
Fu Zhonghai pointed outside and explained softly: "I'll ask the maids to wait outside. I'll give you a massage."
When the two of them were in love, Fu Zhonghai had given her a massage, and his hands were so strong that it seemed as if he wanted to press her to death.
But this time, after the massage, calluses appeared on my fingertips, but the strength was just right.
He has changed a lot.
"Your technique is quite good..." Zhan Yunfu praised in an ambiguous tone.
Fu Zhonghai laughed innocently: "Once, An'er had a stomachache and cried a lot. The doctor gave him medicine, but he still couldn't sleep well."
"The doctor taught me this soothing technique..."
Fu Zhonghai's honesty made Zhan Yunfu at a loss for words, so she simply shut up.
Fu Zhonghai continued massaging for a while before asking softly, "Are you feeling better?"
Zhan Yunfu closed her eyes and said "hmm".
"Then I'll ask them to set up the meal and come in?"
Zhan Yunfu stood up suddenly and looked at Fu Zhonghai: "You haven't eaten yet?"
It's already evening!
Fu Zhonghai had a pitiful expression.
"An'er took his daughter-in-law to visit his mother and left me alone in the palace. I really couldn't eat... so I came to you."
Zhan Yunfu: ...
When it comes to pretending to be pitiful, Fu Zhonghai has never lost.
Just set the table.
Soon, a large table of food was served, along with two sets of bowls and chopsticks.
Zhan Yunfu: "I've eaten."
Fu Zhonghai: "Eat some more?"
“I can’t eat.”
"Then eat less."
The chopsticks were stuffed into her hands, and Zhan Yunfu was forced to start eating supper: She actually ate half a bowl...
After the meal, Fu Zhonghai was satisfied. He stood up without waiting for Zhan Yunfu to chase him away.
"I'll go back to the palace first and come back tomorrow night?"
Zhan Yunfu was shocked: "Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, what are you doing here?"
Fu Zhonghai: "Come and celebrate the New Year!"
"Shouldn't the family be reunited during the Chinese New Year?"
Zhan Yunfu held her forehead with her hand: "You are the emperor, you are of noble status, why are you running around instead of staying in the palace during the New Year?"
Fu Zhonghai started to play the victim again: "If you don't come to the palace, I will be alone watching An'er and his wife getting along harmoniously, and I will feel uncomfortable..."
When talking about this, Zhan Yunfu remembered something: "How is the talent show going now?"
Fu Zhonghai chuckled: "It's very lively!"
Years ago, someone went to the palace under the pretext of paying respects to the Crown Princess, hoping to get his wife and daughter to come to the palace to pay respects.
Fu Zhonghai and Fu Chenan both refused.
They then sent various things to the palace, saying that these were made by their daughters for the little grandson...
Try every possible way to get close to someone.
Fu Zhonghai collected all the things, and then asked Lu Shangfu to collect them all, and then deal with them together...
"After the New Year, the dust should have settled."
"Be prepared. There will be some rumors. I will deal with them as soon as possible."
Seeing Zhan Yunfu nodded in agreement, he felt relieved and returned to the palace.
After Fu Chenan and his wife finished their meal with Qi Rongrong, they were about to say goodbye. As soon as they arrived in the yard, they heard someone knocking on the door.
They all looked at the door in astonishment: Qi Rongrong didn't receive any outsiders at all, so who could get the guard's permission and come and knock on the door?
A guard stepped forward to open the door and met the face of another guard outside.
"My Lord, Shunlai Inn sent some things over, saying they were for the Grand Princess."
Shunlai Inn?
Fu Chenan reacted: This is the place where my cheap uncle used to stay!
The stronghold of the Sirius Nation.
Ever since my uncle returned to China, Shunlai Inn has no longer been concealed. It does business every day and sends gifts to the Grand Princess and Fu Chenan from time to time.
Two days ago, a Dongshan wolf cub was even sent to Fu Chenan.
Obviously, Emperor Tianlang regarded Shunlai Inn as a chess piece to connect the father and son of the Fu family.
Fu Chenan tacitly allowed Shunlai Inn to continue operating, but at the same time he had people keep an eye on their every move.
Because of the difference in status, even your uncle cannot be trusted.
Fu Chenan signaled the guard to check and accept it, then he said goodbye and left.
In another courtyard near Shunlai Inn, someone wrote down the latest situation in secret code and sent it to Emperor Tianlang via a carrier pigeon...
"The Crown Prince, the Crown Princess, and the twins went to the Grand Princess's place, had dinner together, and then left."
"There are no obvious weapons on the two men. The eight guards in the open are equipped with swords, and the eight guards in the hidden area are equipped with crossbows and swords..."
In the Sirius Palace, the Sirius Emperor sent all his concubines to the nunnery, leaving the harem unexpectedly empty.
In fact, he secretly raised the eldest daughter of the Wen family in the palace, without giving her any status, just for him to vent his emotions every day.
I don’t know what this eldest daughter of the legitimate family was thinking, but she was surprisingly very cooperative.
Emperor Tianlang originally thought that since he was a traitor, he could just toy with him for a few days and then let him die.
Who would have thought that this wonderful creature would be so docile and unrestrained, giving him so much pleasure that he could not bear to kill her.
But with such an identity, she is destined not to be able to be crowned as a concubine.
Then just keep it as a toy.
After venting, his mind became clearer. He sat alone in the imperial study, playing with a quick-fried grenade in his hand, and looking at the secret letters sent by Tianwu every day.
"The Crown Prince attended court today, and he did not leave the palace after court, nor did he participate in the discussion in the Imperial Study."
"The prince did not attend court today."
"A new wolf garden has been built in the palace. It is heavily guarded and no one can get close. From the sounds, there are Dongshan wolf cubs inside, and there are quite a few of them..."
…
The Sirius Emperor stopped playing with the grenade and his expression became even more sinister.
There are quite a few Dongshan wolf cubs...
The Dongshan wolf cubs from Panzi Valley in Dadongshan are actually in Tianwu Kingdom?
How did Fu Chenan transport so many cubs back without anyone noticing?
When the former Sirius Emperor learned that the Dongshan wolf cubs in Panzi Valley had disappeared, he immediately ordered an investigation.
Tianwu did not let go along the way.
From Tianlang's Dadong Mountain to Tianwu Capital, there are Tianlang's spies all the way.
But all these spies reported the same news without exception: no one was found transporting Dongshan wolf cubs to Tianwu Kingdom?
The Sirius Emperor couldn't understand: if one or two wolf cubs were hidden away, it would be understandable if everyone missed them.
But there are about a hundred of them!
How could they collectively miss it?
How did Fu Chenan do it? !
The unknown is the most terrifying thing. (End of this chapter)
