After capturing General Mao and surrendering the bandits, the official sent from the capital to help the Liaocheng prefect investigate the case also arrived. It was none other than Tao Zhi.
Originally, the person the emperor wanted to send was not Tao Zhi, but Tao Zhi told the emperor that Wei Fu had been gone for so long and he missed Wei Fu very much. He wondered whether the prince had taken good care of Wei Fu, so the emperor allowed him to come.
Thinking that Tao Zhi and Wei Fu have a special relationship, I might as well help them understand Wei Fu's specific situation here so that I can tell them about it after returning.
Even if the other officials gave instructions, all they would hear were polite words.
Tao Zhi naturally agreed repeatedly and said that he would definitely confirm whether Wei Fu had lost weight and was happy. The emperor was very satisfied with this.
Tao Zhi was also satisfied. He was naturally not worried about Wei Fu. He just wanted to go out and have fun.
Ever since he became an official, he rarely had the opportunity to leave the capital, which made him, a person who loved freedom, feel very depressed.
Tao Zhi came over and brought letters from the Queen Mother, the Emperor and the Queen to Wei Fu and the Prince.
Wei Fu was very happy holding the letter from his family and couldn't wait to open it. After opening it, he was confused because he didn't recognize many of the words.
She casually handed the letter to Long Yin and asked him to help read it. She swung her little feet and ate some snacks.
The letters from several adults all had the same central idea, which was to ask the prince to take good care of Wei Fu. They all missed Wei Fu very much and asked Wei Fu to remember to think of them while he was outside.
He also told them about Princess Yahe's current situation, saying that Princess Yahe was the same as when they left, without any change, so they didn't need to worry.
But he also warned the prince not to delay unnecessarily.
After the prince handed over the affairs here to Tao Zhi, he led Wei Fu to continue heading south. Tao Zhi watched with tears in his eyes as his junior sister flew away after just one day.
Thinking about how Junior Sister solved two cases in one day, he secretly clenched his fists to show that he couldn't lose either.
The prefect's wife also watched Wei Fu leave with tears in her eyes. She felt empty in her heart when the little princess left.
The prefect grabbed her hand and promised, "Don't worry, Madam. His Highness said that the Emperor won't care about what happened to your mother. I can still hold this position. I won't let you suffer any more in the future."
He thought it was his wife crying, and since Wei Fu and the others had left, Tao Zhi was going to start settling accounts with him.
The prefect's wife looked at him puzzledly, then ruthlessly pulled her hand back and wiped it with a handkerchief in disgust: "Sir, you have touched a lot of unlucky people recently. It's best not to touch me. The princess has held my hand."
She decided not to wash her hands for the next few days if she could avoid it.
The prefect: “…” Well, he was just being wishful thinking.
Wei Fu and his men did not encounter any danger on the way from Liaocheng to Jingzhou because they were leading a large army. During the day, they walked very slowly. Wei Fu would sometimes get off the carriage to chase butterflies or pick wild flowers.
Because there were so many people and it was not easy to stay in the city, they had been camping outside for the past few days. Wei Fu and Long Yin even roasted some field mice to eat. In short, these days were the happiest days for Wei Fu on his journey south.
There was no annoying Su Rui, nor was there Shen Nian who was thinking about the prince.
In the blink of an eye, they arrived in Jingzhou. Su Cheng couldn't wait to take the prince and Wei Fu back home. He missed his family very much during these days.
Because the crown prince and the princes often came to Jingzhou before, the Su family did not have the custom of going out of the city to welcome them. This time Wei Fu came with them, and the Su family still did not go to the city gate to welcome them, but the whole family waited at the gate early.
Hearing the sound of a carriage, Madam Su held the hand of her maid and gave Madam Su and Su Rui a warning look: "If you dare to disrespect the princess today and do anything strange, I will show no mercy."
Su Rui had been home for a few days. She had complained the moment she got home, saying Su Cheng was partial and only treated Wei Fu well, that Wei Fu bullied her, and that the Crown Prince simply ignored her cousin because of Wei Fu.
Her behavior made Old Lady Su very angry.
Su Rui is an adult, but she is competing for favor with Wei Fu, a child. Wei Fu is young, so what's wrong with everyone caring about her and protecting her?
Especially after reading the letter that Su Cheng asked the person who sent Su Rui back to bring back, he felt that Su Rui was simply being unreasonable.
Although Su Cheng felt that he no longer understood his sister because of Su Rui's series of behaviors, he still understood some of Su Rui's behaviors. He guessed that Su Rui would definitely say something bad about Wei Fu after returning home, so he wrote a letter in advance.
Madam Su and the others read the letter and felt that Su Rui was wrong to say that about Wei Fu, but Madam Su said, "The princess is so powerful, isn't it right for her to save Rui'er? Besides, she only saved Rui'er on the way, just to protect herself, not specifically to save Rui'er."
Her attitude made Mrs. Su so angry that she fell backwards, but Su Rui felt that her mother was the best in the world.
Faced with Madam Su's warning, both mother and daughter felt that it was an exaggeration. When the princes came, they were not so cautious, but a princess was like this instead.
The noise that Old Lady Su heard was indeed from Wei Fu and his group. After Su Cheng got off the carriage first, the prince got out of the carriage holding Wei Fu.
When Madam Su saw this, she frowned slightly. Wei Fu was already a six-year-old girl. Could it be that she couldn't get off the carriage?
It's true that he was born by a father but not taught by a mother.
Like mother, like daughter. Princess Yahe was a married woman who stayed in the palace every day, so Wei Fu didn't know the rules.
What she didn't know was that the reason Wei Fu was carried down the carriage by the prince was because she had fallen asleep on the way. After the prince carried her down the carriage, he shook her and said softly, "Fu'er, we've arrived at my grandparents' house."
His maternal grandfather is naturally also his sister's.
Wei Fu rubbed her eyes and yawned. Tears welled up in the corners of her eyes, and the prince wiped them away for her.
At this time, everyone in the Su family also came forward to pay their respects.
Without waiting for them to bow, the prince smiled and said, "Grandmother and uncles, there's no need to be so resolute. Just proceed as usual."
Madam Su and the others did not insist. Madam Su looked at Wei Fu amiably and said with a smile, "This must be Fu'er!"
Wei Fu came down from the prince's arms and greeted her politely: "Hello, grandma, I am Fu'er~~~"
When Old Lady Su heard Wei Fu calling her Grandmother, her heart blossomed, and her smile deepened. "The Queen and the Highnesses often mention Fu'er, saying how thoughtful and lovely he is. Today I finally get to see him in person."
"Now that Fu'er is here, it's like being at home. If you have anything, just come to grandma."
"Yeah." Wei Fu nodded like a chick pecking at rice. His elder brother's grandmother looked very similar to Fu'er's grandmother.
Su Rui looked at Wei Fu and her grandmother being so affectionate, and her face immediately became red with anger: "Grandmother, the princess has been traveling so hard, it's very hard. If you have anything to say, please come in and sit down and talk slowly!"
