On the other side, the heir of the Duke of Dingguo also knew that Sisi, Fengchan, and Lao Bai had slowed down on their way back, and that the officials along the way had all gone to pay their respects.
The heir apparent of the Duke of Dingguo thought for a moment and then went to find the Duke. The Duke of Dingguo was annoyed the moment he saw his eldest son. If it weren't for the Crown Prince insisting that he make this boy his heir, he wouldn't have chosen him. His younger son was far more intelligent than this boy. "What are you doing here?"
The heir of the Duke of Dingguo knew that his father disliked him. But he couldn't just stand by and watch his father make a foolish decision.
The heir of the Duke of Dingguo bowed to the Duke of Dingguo. "Father, I heard that the officials along the way have all gone to visit Miss Yun and Earl Xiaoyao."
The Duke of Dingguo looked down on Lao Bai. He believed his title was earned through hard work and battle, while Lao Bai's title was obtained by flattering Sisi. "What kind of Earl of Xiaoyao? Just a lackey. If you want to curry favor with them, go ahead, I'm not going."
The heir of the Duke of Dingguo sighed inwardly. With his father's outspoken nature, he was bound to cause trouble sooner or later. "Father, I'm not trying to curry favor with them. I'm just afraid someone will go and complain to them."
"Complain? Complain about what?"
Of course, it's about accusing you of building a tomb on someone else's sacred site. "The villagers of Dahuaishu Village don't agree to let us build a tomb on the back mountain of their village."
"So what if they disagree? I haven't broken the law."
You haven't broken the law, but you've crossed a line. "Old Master Yun has always been on the side of the common people. Miss Yun grew up with him, so she'll definitely be influenced by him. What if…"
The Duke of Dingguo's eyes widened immediately. "What if what? How dare she, a little brat, tell me what to do?" Even the Crown Prince had to give her some leeway.
"...Miss Yun has a bad temper. What if she treats you like she treats His Highness the Crown Prince, whipping you the moment she sees you, then you..."
The Duke of Dingguo wanted to say, "Then I'll just slap her to death!" But even with his high reputation, he didn't dare kill the Crown Prince's fiancée. "Then I'll go complain to His Majesty. All I wanted was to build a tomb for her, and she dared to embarrass me like this! She's not embarrassing me, she's embarrassing His Majesty. I'm His Majesty's man."
“Father, His Majesty only has one son, the Crown Prince, and the Crown Prince cares so much about Miss Yun Liu.”
"No matter how much he cares, she's still a woman. Can a woman protect his empire? Alright, go do what you're supposed to do. Don't bother me."
"father……"
The Duke of Dingguo waved his hand. "Go away, go away, just looking at you annoys me."
Having no other choice, the heir of the Duke of Dingguo went to find the feng shui master who had helped his family.
When the master saw the Duke of Dingguo's heir arrive, he stood up and bowed to him. "Greetings, Your Highness, please have a seat."
The heir of the Duke of Dingguo returned the greeting. "Greetings, Master. Please have a seat."
"good."
After sitting down, the master looked at the heir of the Duke of Dingguo and said, "Your Highness, is there something you need from me?"
"Yes." The heir of the Duke of Dingguo repeated what he had just said to the Duke of Dingguo. However, the heir changed "whip you" to "chop you up directly."
"You should help us find a better location with better feng shui."
The master thought to himself, "I wish she would cut me with a knife." Then he looked at the heir of the Duke of Dingguo and said, "Your Highness, you don't know this, but the quality of feng shui is related to the birth date and time of the tomb owner. Finding a treasure trove that matches the birth date and time of the tomb owner is like finding a needle in a haystack."
The heir of the Duke of Dingguo tried to persuade the master for a long time, but the master wouldn't budge. The heir of the Duke of Dingguo was extremely frustrated. He thought to himself, "If I had known it would be like this, I would have stayed in the capital."
He asked the Crown Prince to assign his father to a local post because he feared his father would become arrogant and disrespectful. Unexpectedly, his father still managed to cause trouble in the local area.
I really hope his father is like the Earl of Xiaoyao, who got a title and then went off to live a carefree life.
On the other hand, the magistrate of Ping'an County was both happy and worried when he learned that Sisi had agreed to take care of the matter.
The good news is that we finally found tall people to take our place.
The concern is that even someone tall might not be able to hold them down.
More than ten days later, Sisi and her group strolled to Anshun Prefecture.
As soon as the heir of the Duke of Dingguo learned that Sisi and the others had arrived, he brought his wife to visit them.
Sisi didn't see him, so she had a guard speak to him. Sisi told him she was going to visit his father and then refused to see him again.
After leaving the inn, the Crown Prince's wife looked at the Crown Prince and said, "What do you mean by what Miss Yun said?"
"It means they don't want to put me in a difficult position."
"...Miss Yun, you also know that Father doesn't like you?"
"Everyone in the capital knows it."
"..." Luckily, her father-in-law believed in ghosts and gods, otherwise...
After returning to his residence, the heir of the Duke of Dingguo went to find the Duke. The Duke was chatting with the feng shui master who had given him the consultation.
The heir of the Duke of Dingguo bowed to them and greeted them. "Father, Miss Yun Liu has arrived. I went to visit her just now, but she didn't see me. She must know that you want to build a tomb on the back mountain of Dahuaishu Village."
The Duke of Dingguo casually remarked, "If she knows, she knows. If she were smart, she would pretend she doesn't."
She said she wanted to visit you.
"Let her come, why should I be afraid of her?"
"...Father, why don't you go and visit her and explain things to her?"
The Duke of Dingguo wanted his heir to get lost! "She hasn't married His Highness the Crown Prince yet. I'll visit her after she marries him. Alright, you can go and rest now."
If there weren't outsiders present, he would have kicked him. How dare he send him to visit some little brat!
He had barely finished speaking when the steward rushed in. "My lord, Miss Yun and Earl Xiaoyao have arrived. Miss Yun has brought many guards with her."
