His Majesty had already left the city and had been on his way to Yunzhou for a day. Fu Yanqing didn't know why Guo Wei would send a fast horse to chase him back and urgently summon him back, which made him feel a little uneasy.

This was not a clueless anxiety, because he knew that Guo Wei was really seriously ill, and he judged it from the clues he got from Princess Jin.

Since the fall of the Tang Dynasty, dynasties have been changing endlessly. Fu Yanqing has been favored by five generations and four dynasties, and he can see the world affairs very clearly.

As the founding kings of the country, Guo Wei has the weakest foundation of strength compared to any of them, Zhu Wen, Li Cunxu, Shi Jingtang, and Liu Zhiyuan.

At this moment, he doesn't have much time left. The crown prince has neither blood nor prestige. At this time, what the emperor has to do is often to clear up hidden dangers. Just like that idiot Wang Yin, Fu Yanqing is very worried that Guo Wei will target him again.

Fu Yanqing hesitated for a long time, but he decided to follow Guo Wei's order and return to Kaifeng. He was not gambling with his life and fortune, and he was very sure that Guo Wei would not kill him.

Firstly, his status is not comparable to that of Wang Yin, and killing him will have too great a impact; secondly, killing him will not bring any benefit at all. His survival is an important bargaining chip to consolidate the new monarch's status. After all, he is Chai Rong's father-in-law.

.

After resting all night, Fu Yanqing hurriedly returned to Kaifeng. At noon, he had already arrived outside Kaifeng City. He stopped his horse's reins and looked up at the Suzaku Gate. He took a deep breath, tapped the horse's belly and entered slowly.

Got to the city.

The weather was too hot, so there were not many people in the market, but vendors and vendors could always be seen in the shadows. The market was already much more prosperous than when Liu Chengyou was in power.

As a governor of a town, Fu Yanqing held military and political power. He knew how much less taxes the court had collected since Guo Wei ascended the throne, and how much easier the lives of the people were.

Look at how ordinary people still go to Xiangguo Temple to burn incense on this hot day. In previous years, it was only reserved for wealthy people. Ordinary people didn't have enough to eat, so how could they have money to pay for incense oil to the temple?

Fu Yanqing suddenly sighed. It had to be said that Guo Wei had made some achievements in people's livelihood. He didn't have much time left at the moment. His son-in-law was probably not as good as Guo Wei. How big could a person who was born as a small trader be?

In terms of ability, it would be fine if he can sit firmly in Longting. If he cannot sit firmly, he may have to change the dynasty again. When will this troubled world end? Where is the person who can determine the world? Could it be me, Fu Yanqing...

Fu Yanqing was riding on the horse and thinking wildly. Suddenly his eyes froze, and a figure appeared in his sight. It was his seventh daughter. Although it took two or three years to see her, he still recognized her at a glance.

At this moment, his daughter was walking towards Yu Street from the direction of Xiangguo Temple. Her figure was graceful, dignified and beautiful, a bit brighter than her biological mother. But the one next to her was holding an umbrella to protect her from the sun, and the one walking side by side with her was

Who? They looked like a golden boy and a beautiful girl.

Oh! It's him! It's the boy who killed Wang Yin!

Although women at this time were not as tightly constrained as they were in the Ming and Qing dynasties, due to the strong moral code, even couples walking together on the streets might not be so intimate.

If Fu Yanqing doesn't know the relationship between the two at this moment, then his life will be in vain, and the scorching sun will not be able to compare with the anger in his heart.

On the one hand, he was annoyed that his daughter had an affair with someone because she had no orders from her parents to be a matchmaker; on the other hand, she was angry that Xu Xian, a stinky dog, had stolen his family's swan meat.

Since Wang Yin was executed, Fu Yanqing had people investigate Xu Xian, and other Jiedu envoys should have also investigated him, so he knew Xu Xian very well.

He is just a man with no father and mother, who was born as a small businessman. Although he has some family business and is still working in front of the palace, he is definitely not worthy of his daughter Fu Yanqing. His daughter can win over the whole town, how can she get the advantage in vain?

For a small capital, there is no such cheap deal in the world!

"Liying!"

A low and suppressed call made Fu Liying shiver in the dog days of summer. She slowly raised her head and saw that the person sitting not far away was indeed the person she least wanted to see at the moment.

She subconsciously turned her head to look at Xu Xian beside her, but she only managed to do it halfway before turning around abruptly. She walked a few steps quickly, left Xu Xian behind and stood in front of the horse. She sighed deeply, "Didn't my father go back to Yunzhou?"

Why are you back again?"

Fu Yanqing said calmly: "My father walked halfway and was urgently ordered to come back by His Majesty. It's such a hot weather and you're not at home, so why are you here?"

"My father knew that Sixth Sister was pregnant, and my mother asked me to deliver some things to Sixth Sister. When I was passing by, I wanted to ask for a peace charm for Sixth Sister to protect her pregnancy." She said and took out a peace charm from her sleeve.

I came to show it to Fu Yanqing, for fear that Fu Yanqing might not believe it.

"I have met the King of Huaiyang!" Xu Xian closed his umbrella and held it in his hand before bowing to Fu Yanqing.

"Who are you?" Fu Yanqing asked knowingly.

"The lower official is Xu Xian, the chief minister in front of the palace. The red scarf is all over the head!"

"Oh, the man who killed Wang Yin is really a young hero."

"My subordinates obeyed the imperial edict and killed national traitors, but they did not dare to be praised by the King of Huaiyang."

"It's rare for young people to be neither arrogant nor impetuous. Well, do you recognize the seventh mother in my family?"

Xu Xian turned to look at him, lowered his head and said nothing, Fu Liying said: "It turns out that this young lady is the daughter of your noble family. I'm disrespectful. I met my daughter-in-law and chatted with her for a while when I was serving incense. Now I think I recognize her."

Xu Xian is not a coward, he can clearly feel the fear coming from Fu Liying, and he denies that it is to protect Fu Liying, because he is afraid that Fu Yanqing will not be fooled.

"Haha... So that's it." Fu Yanqing told the soldiers: "Send Qiniang home!" Then he cradled the horse's belly and headed towards the palace.

Xu Xian cupped her hands to Fu Liying and said, "Little madam, Xiaoke, I'm leaving now." But he saw traces of water dripping down Fu Liying's pointed chin. Fu Liying slowly raised her head and saw her crying with tears in her eyes: "

I never thought that Buddha could be so efficacious!"

Because of the hot weather, Guo Wei, who had moved back to the back hall of Chongyuan Hall, heard that Fu Yanqing had arrived. He laughed and said: "Fu Guanhou never disappoints people. The fact that he dares to come back according to the order shows that he is quite reliable."

"That's not necessarily the case. Maybe he is sure that His Majesty will not kill him!"

"No matter what, I have no other choice but to believe him." Guo Wei stood up slowly from behind the desk, "Let's go, I'll go to the front hall to see him!"

Guo Wei got up and walked around the huge screen to the front hall. He stood under the Danqi with his hands behind his back and waited for Fu Yanqing's arrival. Not long after, he saw the eunuch leading Fu Yanqing in.

Although he was a powerful official, Fu Yanqing was very respectful to Guo Wei. He bowed down and saluted. Guo Wei did not help him up and greeted him as politely as usual, but Li Tingfang stood in front of him holding the yellow scroll and said, "The edict says: Fu Yanqing is loyal."
