After my rebirth, I became the white moonlight in the Beijing circle

After coming out of Lu Linzhi's room, Ye Zhilan was still absent-minded. Fu Guiyun saw everything but didn't ask any more questions.

After sending her back to her bedroom to rest, she came out with Nanny Jiang and Nanny Kong. The two Nannies noticed that the princess had shown too much concern for the Fourth Young Master in front of the Crown Prince's wife today, and such concern even surpassed that for the Crown Prince.

Fearing that the Crown Prince's wife might be suspicious, Nanny Jiang smiled and explained, "The fourth young master's father is our prince's younger brother. He was seriously injured when he went to war with the prince in his early years and became disabled. He is the only child of our prince. For this reason, the prince and his wife are particularly caring for the fourth young master."

The old lady spoke seriously, and Fu Guiyun also responded in unison: "So that's how it is."

But this explanation is really weak.

The concern that the mother-in-law showed to Lu Linzhi obviously went beyond the love that an aunt should show, and anyone who was attentive could see that.

However, she has never been a gossiper and knows what to ask and what not to ask. Since her mother-in-law has something to hide, she will just pretend to be ignorant.

When she returned to her guest room, she was very sleepy. She saw Cuiluo and Caidie trying to coax little Qingyu to sleep, but the little guy refused to fall asleep.

Seeing this, Fu Guiyun had no choice but to go up to her and hold her in his arms, and asked softly, "What's wrong? Why are you so naughty today?"

Xiao Qingyu lay silently on her shoulder, but did not respond at all.

Fu Guiyun was at a loss when he felt something cold dripping on his face.

She looked up and found that Xiao Qingyu had already burst into tears, with wet eyes, and everyone who saw her felt pity for her.

"Hey, who bullied our cute little Qingyu and made you so sad?"

Fu Guiyun took a handkerchief and wiped the corners of her eyes with concern, and began to guess why she was crying.

Cuiluo and Caidie were both confused. Nanny Tong sent someone to bring in hot water. When she heard what the Crown Prince's wife said, she quickly interrupted and said, "Miss Yu is now being raised by the Crown Prince's wife. Who dares to bully her? I'm afraid that the young master and Miss Yu are afraid of the girl Wan that the Crown Prince brought back."

Tong Ma'am's reminder made Caidie suddenly remember something: "That's right, the prince has been busy practicing his zither skills with Wan Niang all the way, either playing "The Phoenix Seeks the Phoenix" or "Lovesickness", but with a distance of several carriages, I don't know why Wan Niang is missing him so much, she is so hypocritical, she has made the prince lose his mind, and he didn't even take care of the young master and Miss Yu."

After saying this, she curled her lips in dissatisfaction: "Yesterday, the prince rushed back to Liyang City, and he didn't take anyone with him except Wan Niang."

If Caidie hadn't mentioned this matter, Fu Guiyun would have almost forgotten about it.

It must be said that Qin Wan was indeed born with a good voice. Not to mention the prince, even she felt that the tunes sung by this woman were really beautiful when she was on the road.

But after all, she is no match for Yunling. I think Xiao Qingyu was frightened by Yunling and has a trauma in her heart.

Looking at the little girl with warm eyes, Fu Guiyun comforted her softly: "She is just a doll of your father. You don't have to take her to heart."

Xiao Qingyu put his face against her chin and nodded slightly, but he was reluctant to let her go.

This little guy is now becoming more and more attached to her. Fu Guiyun sighed silently.

"Then I'll sleep with you tonight?"

I stroked the hair beside her ears and the little girl nodded happily.

Nanny Tong looked helpless, thinking that Miss Yu had become a clingy little goblin. After sending the maids to help the mother and daughter take a bath, Fu Guiyun was so sleepy that he yawned and fell asleep on the bed while holding Xiao Qingyu.

Nanny Tong led the maids to turn off the lights everywhere, close the doors and windows, and leave the room one after another.

However, the county governor's mansion in the border town bordering Dongyi and Liyang was still brightly lit at this time.

Officials of all ranks looked at the King of Dongyi who was sitting at the top, with their heads lowered and not daring to breathe.

"What a bunch of losers."

King Dongyi never expected that after a whole day of siege, he only killed hundreds of soldiers, did not even see the shadow of Princess Liyang and the Crown Prince, and let Lu Linzhi escape.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid that Prince Liyang will never let go of what happened today."

County Magistrate Yin Cang said anxiously: "If this gets to His Majesty's ears, it will definitely be bad for the prince."

"What do you think should be done?"

The King of Dongyi was so anxious that he clenched his chin and kept looking at the county governor.

"this......"

Yin Cang frowned instantly.

The prince is trapped in his own web and there is nothing he can do about it.

Prince Dongyi suddenly had an idea: "I heard that Prince Lu and Princess Ye have returned to the border town of Liyang. I'm afraid I'll have to trouble the county governor to go with me to meet the mother and son in person."

Yin Cang was puzzled: "I have no friendship with Princess Liyang, I am afraid I can't help His Majesty."

"You are too modest, my Lord County Magistrate. You are the only one who can help me right now."

The King of Dongyi laughed sinisterly: "Come on, take the whole family of Yin Junshou to Dongyi City immediately."

Yin Cang was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he immediately knelt on the ground and begged: "Your Majesty, spare my life..."

"Ok?"

The King of Dongyi gave him a fierce look, and Yin Cang angrily changed his words: "Yes, I was tempted by money and wanted to kill for money. I hurt the friendship between the prince and the Liyang Palace. I regret it deeply and am willing to take the blame."

"You have committed such an unforgivable crime, how can you just admit your guilt and let it go?"

King Dongyi waved his hand and said sternly, "Tie him up for me, and go to Muling City at night to apologize to Princess Liyang and Prince Lu."

Before Yin Cang could react, he was tied up and taken out of the county governor's mansion along with King Dongyi.

Early the next morning

Fu Guiyun had just gotten up when he heard Cheng Kui come in and report, "Princess, the Prince of Dongyi has brought people to Muling City to apologize. The prince is not here, so the princess wants you to go with her."

"apologize?"

Fu Guiyun smiled helplessly. He had caused such a big fuss on the Li River, and he didn't know how he was going to make amends.

After handing the neatly dressed Xiao Qingyu to Cuiluo, Fu Guiyun deliberately asked someone to find a set of plain clothes for her. He also told Cheng Kui to ask his mother-in-law to change into plain clothes as well. Then they went out of the county magistrate's mansion together to welcome the guests.

As the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law led the officials to the gate of the mansion, they saw King Dongyi walking towards them with great strides in pain.

"My dear elder sister of the Ye family, it is all my fault for my negligence that caused you and my nephew to almost suffer a disaster. I feel really sorry for it."

King Dongyi complained with shame and anger: "When I learned about the incident on the Li River, I rushed to the border town in a hurry, but I was still unable to prevent the tragedy from happening. Many soldiers suffered. I am deeply sinful."

As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately sent someone to bring Yin Cang up, pointed at him angrily and shouted, "It's all because of this guy. He was so bold as to want to rob money. This crime is really unforgivable. Today, I will capture this thief and chop him into pieces in front of my old sister to comfort the dead soldiers."

"Prefect Yin?"

Ye Zhilan didn't think much about it. He just wanted to vent his anger for Lu Linzhi and the dead soldiers.

Yin Cang's family, young and old, were all in the hands of King Dongyi, so they could only bow their heads and confess their guilt: "This humble official deserves death, and I am willing to die to atone for my crime."

Fu Guiyun watched all this quietly, how could he not know that Yin Cang was the scapegoat pushed out by King Dongyi.

He wanted to let the matter rest, but there was no such easy thing in the world.
