Chapter 219 Good Sister-in-law
When Fu Yi repeated these two words, the man was looking at him in surprise.
The assassins of Shaoqu Tower all had a natural alertness towards those in higher positions, like small animals. He didn't dare to look, so he just watched.
Of course he would never forget Fu Yi's face.
When he was caught, the man was standing not far away, looking at him on the rack calmly and indifferently.
"Aying..." He stammered and spoke again, "You..."
How could you suddenly appear with him after being missing for such a long time?
At this time, the woman in the distance bowed from a distance and quickly said, "Greetings, Master."
Cheng Nianying looked at her.
She still loves wearing purple clothes.
It's purple bamboo.
Zizhu didn't recognize Cheng Nianying.
This made it even more obvious—Fu Yi said in a cold voice: "He can even recognize you after you changed your appearance? He really has deep feelings for you."
Cheng Nianying didn't understand what this meant.
But the man in front of her changed his expression slightly.
He then imitated Zizhu and bowed, "Lingyu greets the master."
The others who were passing by also stopped and bowed in unison, saying, "Greetings, Master."
Their voices are not loud, but when they come together, there is a sense of righteousness.
Cheng Nianying slowly withdrew her gaze from them and asked Lingyu, "Have you seen Wangyue? Is she dead?"
Ling Yu shook his head stiffly: "Not dead, alive."
"She's in..."
"I'm out doing work for my master."
Cheng Nianying then raised her eyes again and looked around the place...
She asked Fu Yi, "Did you use them all?"
"Um."
Zizhu took a few steps forward and felt that Cheng Nianying's voice sounded familiar, but without thinking too much, she quickly praised him, "Master, you have treated us so well! We are willing to go through life and death for you!"
He is very good at flattering people.
Cheng Nianying was not surprised either.
When Fu Yi is nice to people, he can easily take them down.
"Have you seen it now?" Fu Yi paused. "Should I leave with satisfaction?"
Cheng Nianying actually had some more questions to ask, but since everyone was still alive, those questions didn't matter. Fu Yi's matter was more important, so she nodded.
Fu Yi said "hmm", took her wrist, and turned to leave with her.
This scene naturally shocked Zizhu and Lingyu.
Ling Yu shuddered and instinctively took two steps forward. "I... the reason I could still recognize her is that she always uses the same few disguises."
After he said that, he held the tip of his tongue tightly.
The intention was to tell Fu Yi that there was no deep affection between them. He just knew it was her after seeing her like this.
Fu Yi: "Oh."
He responded softly, without making any comment on Ling Yu's words, and just walked away with Cheng Nianying.
Ling Yu was left feeling conflicted. On the one hand, she was struggling to guess the relationship between the two, and on the other hand, she was worried that Cheng Nianying had suffered at Fu Yi's hands.
Zizhu suddenly slapped her forehead: "...Oh, I see. She, she, isn't she the one the master wants to catch! And now she has finally caught her?"
Zizhu knew nothing about the turning point of Wei Yang and He Qing. She was still stuck in the moment when Fu Yi was interrogating her and trying to get information out of her to arrest Cheng Nianying.
Now, after she said this, Ling Yu was even more frightened. Without thinking, he quickly chased after them, but they were no longer there.
Walk out of that narrow gate.
Fu Yicai asked, "Who is Wangyue?"
"The assassin from Renzi Pavilion." Cheng Nianying answered, then couldn't help asking, "Lingyu said she went out to work for you, but you don't know who she is?"
"There are so many people who work for me, how could I remember them?" Fu Yi said, then asked her again: "Do you think my words are cold and indifferent? Or are you being condescending?"
Cheng Nianying thought for a moment and said, "That's not wrong. ...You do have a lot of people under you."
Fu Yi felt a slight sense of relief. "I remember that most of the assassins in your building don't interact with each other and often hide their faces. How did you become familiar with her?"
"She...is the first companion I can remember."
Fu Yi chuckled softly.
People always have a special feeling for being the "first".
Fortunately... her first companion was a woman.
"What about Lingyu?"
"Oh, he's the second one."
At least I got second place.
As long as you can't be first, second is nothing...
"Is Fu Ruiming back?" Cheng Nianying asked suddenly, "Let's go see him."
“…I’m back.”
Cheng Nianying walked a few steps in silence, then suddenly turned around and said, "At the palace banquet, you arranged for assassins to deliberately test me. Aren't you afraid that Fu Ruiming would get into trouble too?"
Fu Yi moved his lips but didn't wait to speak.
Cheng Nianying continued, "Oh, yes, so you later brought the Imperial Guards to capture the assassin. You had already calculated this."
She looked at him: "You are still a little bad."
Fu Yi has a headache.
But then I thought about the word she used, "some".
He couldn't help laughing again and lowered his head to hold her face.
His fingertips gently stroked Cheng Nianying's cheek: "Are you still going to avenge my cousin today? You are such a good sister-in-law."
Cheng Nianying turned around and bit him in the mouth.
Fu Yi was stunned.
Cheng Nianying had already walked forward, but he was still standing there in a daze.
Cheng Nianying didn't know what was wrong with him, so she had to slow down and wait for him.
Cheng Nianying didn't see Fu Ruiming that day, and Fu Ruiming was also summoned to the palace.
Instead, Prince Ding’s palace sent someone to ask for it, saying that they had forgotten something that day and wanted to return it to the original owner.
"What did you forget?" Cheng Nianying asked.
It was Fu Yi who answered, whispering in her ear, "This is the 'compensation' that Prince Ding gave you."
The envoy from Prince Ding's Mansion watched this scene silently, and felt more at ease.
His Royal Highness Prince Ding has already said that the more Prince Danshuo cares about and is intimate with this woman, the better.
"Oh, those pearls and jades..." Cheng Nianying smacked her lips.
"I remember when you were at the mansion, you were staring at those precious objects, pearls, and jades, and you couldn't help but take a second look at the gold embroidery on your clothes..."
Did she have such difficulty hiding it then? Cheng Nianying was slightly annoyed and turned away, wanting to bite him again. But the visitors from Prince Ding's mansion were still there. She wrinkled her nose and held it back.
But, yes, why doesn't she care about those things at all?
She lowered her head and thought for a while. When she looked up again, everyone in Prince Ding's mansion had been sent away.
She stretched out her hand towards Fu Yi: "I want..."
"What do you want?"
"Gold."
Fu Yi smiled and said, "I should give you the key to the warehouse again."
Cheng Nianying looked at him.
The answer is right here.
It turns out that if she asked for it, Fu Yi would give it to her.
So all those gold, silver and jewelry are no longer important.
"Let's go to Prince Ding's mansion tomorrow, and go there every day thereafter. Just accept whatever Prince Ding gives you. There's nothing you can't accept." Fu Yi said.
"Hmm." Yes, Fu Yi still wanted to fulfill his words in front of the emperor. He wanted to "investigate" Prince Ding's mansion.
The next day, Cheng Nianying got up early and went to Prince Ding's Mansion.
Prince Ding knew that the Prince's Mansion had many good things, so in order to win Cheng Nianying's attention as quickly as possible, he asked someone to prepare new gifts.
It’s hard to say whether there was any progress in the “investigation”, but Cheng Nianying did collect some things.
In the palace at that time, the emperor opened the secret letter in his hand and said: "...My son and I are in tune with each other."
The eunuch lowered his head and didn't dare to answer.
The emperor himself continued, "Prince Liang has returned to the capital."
