Chapter 96 Go see Fu Yi's wife
"Xu's Manor... I've been there. It's outside the city." Qin Yurong continued.
As soon as she finished speaking, she immediately became alert: "Are there any assassins on this road?"
It was Zou's mother who replied: "I have guards with me, what are you afraid of?"
"It was a sudden decision for us to go to the Xu family's farm." Cheng Nianying said.
"Yes, yes." Qin Yurong breathed a sigh of relief.
The rest of the journey was smooth until we reached the village on the outskirts of the city.
Fu Cheng went up and knocked on the door. As soon as he announced his name, the servants didn't even bother to report to him and hurriedly welcomed him in.
"Is this the first time Princess Gong comes to our farm?" the servant asked eagerly, while raising his hand to brush away the willow branches in front of Cheng Nianying.
Cheng Nianying thought of what Qin Yurong said and said, "I've been here."
"Oh, it seems that the Princess has become more and more dazzling recently, so that I was so short-sighted that I didn't recognize her."
Qin Yurong was slightly distracted.
The Xu family, who played with the Kangwang Mansion, were certainly not lowly in status in the Imperial Capital. She had never been treated this way before.
When we walked past the pavilions and towers, we could see pink, purple and yellow in the distance... The noble ladies were sitting there, each leaning against the wall, with a relaxed posture.
Qin Yurong was no stranger to such scenes. She couldn't help but look back at Cheng Nianying, fearing that she would feel awkward.
But I found that there was no expression on her face.
At this time, Fu Cheng stopped in front of the moon cave door. Princess Kang and Princess Crown Prince inside saw the scene here.
"Why did you come with Fu Yi's wife?" Princess Kang frowned in confusion, feeling very resistant to Cheng Nianying.
This stubborn daughter-in-law!
"Mom, I'll go ask." The Crown Princess stood up.
The Crown Prince's Consort came up to her, held her breath, bowed to Cheng Nianying, and called out, "Sister-in-law."
Qin Yurong's eyes widened at this scene.
"She came to your house to say hello on behalf of Fu Yi. When she heard that you and your mother were here, she wanted to join in the fun." Fu Cheng then spoke.
The Crown Princess looked at Fu Cheng. Didn't you say earlier to stay away? Now that he's here, it's hard to refuse.
The Crown Princess said gently, "Okay, I will definitely take good care of my sister-in-law."
"Okay, I'll come pick you and mother up later." Fu Cheng turned around.
Qin Yurong supported Cheng Nianying with one hand and whispered in her ear: "The prince's elder brother and sister-in-law are both very good people."
Cheng Nianying whispered to her: "But they are not close."
Qin Yurong was surprised: "Why not get close?"
"Sister-in-law, come this way." The voice of the Crown Prince's wife interrupted their conversation.
Cheng Nianying blinked, not caring too much about the cricket man in front of her.
She followed the Crown Prince's wife, came before Princess Kang, and bowed sideways.
"It's rare to see you." Princess Kang sat up lazily, her tone indifferent.
Qin Yurong's heart tightened.
As expected, it has always been difficult to deal with the mother-in-law.
Cheng Nianying responded, "Yes, they are all sick." Then she straightened up.
Princess Kang still wanted to manipulate the situation, but she lost her chance. However, she felt relieved when she thought that so many people were watching her and thought she was being unruly.
Qin Yurong couldn't help but follow up, "Yes, not only is the prince ill, but the princess has also been ill for a few days."
Princess Kang was surprised: "What disease did she have?"
"He was injured and had a high fever for two days." Mother Zou answered for him.
Princess Kang curled her lips and said, "I'm asking your master, but you guys are so quick to answer."
The Crown Princess's mouth twitched. She didn't expect her mother-in-law to be so narrow-minded.
She quickly asked, "Is my sister-in-law okay?"
"alright."
The Crown Prince's Consort continued, "I should have sent someone to your house to let you know earlier. If I had known you were ill, I would have come to see you."
A girl in green came closer gracefully. "It is a great honor for Zhuangzi to have the honor of being honored by the Princess of the County today."
She bowed to Cheng Nianying.
Qin Yurong hurriedly whispered, "This is the fourth daughter of the Xu family."
"Miss Xu Si." Cheng Nianying called out, which counted as a greeting.
But it’s not over yet.
Soon other people gathered around: "Greetings, Princess."
"The Princess of the County hasn't been seen out and about for a few days."
"Yes, we even organized a poetry banquet, but the invitation was sent to your house and fell into oblivion."
They chattered cheerfully, and Cheng Nianying was among them, looking like the moon surrounded by stars.
Before she came, it was Princess Kang who was praised.
Princess Kang said unhappily, "This is breaking the rules."
"Yurong! Yurong!" someone shouted.
Qin Yurong instinctively turned her head back.
They were Qin Yurong's old friends, a girl from the Qiu family and a girl from the Song family. Why wasn't Yun Fu there?
Qin Yurong was thinking.
The two of them had already squeezed forward and huddled together with Cheng Nianying, pushing Qin Yurong away.
At this time, Fu Cheng had not left yet. He stood outside the moon cave door, taking in all the scenes inside, and couldn't help frowning.
As Fu Yi's wife,...she couldn't help but be dazzled by all the flowers and brocade...
The way she dressed that day was indeed due to Fu Yi's advice, not her own preferences.
Fu Cheng turned and left.
He did not leave Xu's farm, but stopped a servant and asked, "Besides the women of each family, are there any other distinguished guests at the farm today?"
"How did the prince know?"
"The horse parked outside is a royal one."
The servant chuckled and said, "His Royal Highness Prince Liang and His Royal Highness Prince Rui are having tea at the farmhouse."
Fu Cheng was silent for a moment, then said, "Take me over to meet him."
The servant did not dare to refuse and took him away.
Prince Liang was talking to Prince Rui.
Prince Rui asked, "Is Princess Zhaoning still sad?"
"Well, how can I persuade her?" Prince Liang absentmindedly touched the wall of his cup. He was much older than Zhao Ning, and he didn't have the patience to comfort a sister his own age.
"Yes, only Fu Yi can persuade him." Prince Rui said in a light tone.
Prince Liang's face darkened. "Now that the Crown Prince is dead, everyone is trying to seize the throne... This is all Fu Yi's doing! He's hoping everyone in the court will fight to the bitter end. Once Father passes away, he'll be able to easily control everyone!"
"Who?" King Liang stopped talking when he heard footsteps.
Fu Cheng came in and bowed to the two of them. "I am Fu Cheng, the Crown Prince of Kang. I greet His Royal Highness the Prince of Liang and His Royal Highness the Prince of Rui."
Prince Liang frowned, but then he remembered that Prince Kang's Mansion and Fu Yi were not close, and his expression improved a little.
He asked, "Why is Prince Kang here?"
The servant spoke quickly: "He came with the Princess of Danshuo County."
Prince Liang stood up and said, "Oh? The Princess is here too? Lead the way, I'll go take a look."
Fu Cheng's expression froze.
Go over and take a look? Who? Fu Yi’s wife?

At that time, on the other side, Zizhu was holding a tray and mixing with the maids.
She didn't expect that she would receive an extremely difficult task as soon as she arrived in Yujing... It is said that the previous two were gone.
