Chapter 699 Welcoming the Imperial Envoy
The next moment, her head paused and the notebook in her hand fell on her chest.

Fu Ciyi walked over slowly.

When I saw the title of the book clearly, "The Beautiful Lady's Way to Control Her Husband at Night", I was stunned.

What is the right way to control your husband?

Still at night?
But at least I don't have to read those books about escaping from my husband.

He couldn't help but curl his lips and gently took away the notebook, but his eyes fell uncontrollably on the fullness of her breasts.

Without any warning, my palms started to itch.

Placing the script on the bedside, he coughed lightly, reached his hand through her legs, and gently moved her away from the bedside, making her lie flat.

Yan Funing woke up when someone moved her body.

She was so sleepy that she pried her eyelids open a crack. Seeing that it was him, she murmured, "You're back?"

"Ah."

The man went to bed.

Seeing that she fell into a deep sleep immediately, Fu Ciyi frowned for a while, but finally extinguished the candle, lay down on the edge of the bed, not getting close to her at all.

The next morning, Yan Funing woke up.

I found myself lying alone on the big bed, and someone's pillow was nowhere to be seen.

Afraid of getting up late, she washed and dressed quickly.

When I left the bedroom, I saw Fu Ciyi in a purple robe sitting in the study, writing something.

"You came back very late last night. Did you find anything?"

She lifted her skirt slightly and walked in.

Fu Ciyi put down his pen and said in a cold voice: "I found some gift lists and letters, as well as my grandfather's will."

After saying that, he stood up and rolled up the two documents.

Yan Funing asked again: "You are wearing your official uniform today, are you going to the Ling County government office?"

"Yes." Fu Ciyi raised his eyelids lazily, "Would you like to go with me, my lady?"

"Where is the will?"

"Still in the county government office."

"Then I have to go."

She had to see with her own eyes what her grandfather's will said.
-
Ling County, county seat, Lu family.

Lu Wenfeng was eating breakfast. He usually only ate one bowl of breakfast, but today he asked the servants to help him serve a second bowl.

Seeing that her son had a good appetite, Mother Lu felt much better.

"Wen Feng, how have you been busy in the county government these past two days?"

What she actually wanted to ask was whether anyone had given things difficult to her, but when the words came to her lips, she changed the way she asked.

"Really busy."

Lu Wenfeng only uttered three words and didn't want to say more.

Father Lu saw something and advised, "Why don't you ask your grandfather to go to the Fu family and talk about it some other day?"

Lu Wenfeng raised his hand: "No, Dad."

As long as he handles all the tasks assigned to him properly and no one can find any mistakes, what can Fu Zhengqing do?
If Fu Zhengqing wanted to use despicable means to deal with him, the worst that could happen to him was that he would quit his position as county magistrate.

Soon, Lu Wenfeng finished his breakfast and went to the county government office to take up his post.

At the beginning of the Si hour, Fu Zhengqing arrived late.

The first thing he did when he arrived at the county government office was not to handle official business, but to call Lu Wenfeng over and scold him.

Lu Wenfeng turned a deaf ear to him. When Fu Zhengqing stopped talking, he asked, "Is the county magistrate done?"

Fu Zhengqing snorted coldly: "With your attitude, do you believe that I can write a memorial to you and make you unable to be the county magistrate?"

"The county magistrate has been wanting to do this for a long time. So, what is there to worry about?" Lu Wenfeng helped him get the brush and handed it to him, "You write."

At this moment, the yamen runner came hurriedly to report: "Report to the county magistrate, the imperial envoy is here!"

"Imperial envoy?" Fu Zhengqing frowned.

I have never heard that the court is going to send an imperial envoy.

No one in the capital city sent him any news.

Suspicious, he asked, "What rank is this person?"

"I don't know what rank he is, but he is wearing a purple official robe."

"Purple robe, third rank and above." Fu Zhengqing frowned and glanced at Lu Wenfeng, "I'll deal with you later." After that, he asked the bailiff to call the county lieutenant.

Soon, officials from Ling County and yamen runners went to the gate of the county government to greet them.

"Ling County Magistrate Fu Zhengqing and the County Magistrate and County Lieutenant respectfully welcome the Imperial Envoy!"

Fu Zhengqing took the lead in bowing and saluting.

I kept complaining in my heart, this imperial envoy was so arrogant that he even arrived at the county government office but was still sitting in the car without even showing his face.

"Welcome, His Excellency the Imperial Envoy!" everyone shouted again.

Fu Ciyi then straightened his official robe and appeared leisurely.

At the same time, Yan Bojian, Yan Funing and Fu Beimo also got off the carriage.

A man got out of another car. He was none other than the headman of Qingshan Town.

Today, Fu Ciyi invited him to come to the county government office, so he came.

The smile that Fu Zhengqing had just had disappeared immediately.

The imperial envoy he saw before him turned out to be Fu Ciyi, which made him stand there in a daze, full of confusion.

This boy is an imperial envoy, wearing a purple robe, and is at least a third-rank official.

How did he get to this point?

Fu Ciyi ignored Fu Zhengqing's reaction and led his men directly to the yamen.

Lu Wenfeng was also shocked and hurriedly followed: "Ci Yi, oh no, why is Master Fu here?"

The county lieutenant pulled Fu Zhengqing, and the two of them followed him in.

Fu Ciyi ignored Lu Wenfeng and sat down in the main hall of the county government office and slammed the gavel.

"Fu Zhengqing, do you know what you did wrong?"

He didn't want to waste too much time on Fu Zhengqing.

After the matter is settled, he has to return to Beijing as soon as possible.

Fu Zhengqing was at a loss: "I don't know."

Suddenly, he realized something and raised his voice: "Fu Ciyi, you said you are an imperial envoy, what is your proof?"

Fu Ciyi raised his hand, and Fu Jiang immediately took out the emperor's handwritten letter of appointment and unfolded it for the Ling County officials to review.

Lu Wenfeng and the county lieutenant immediately bowed and said, "Your subordinate greets Master Fu."

Seeing the emperor's handwritten document and the huge dragon seal on it that could not be fake, Fu Zhengqing began to sweat on his forehead, fearing that Fu Ciyi was here to seek revenge.

Thinking of this, he put on a smile and said, "Master Fu, the magistrate of Ling County greets you."

He took a step forward and said, "Ci Yi, I am very pleased that you have achieved what you have today."

Unexpectedly, Fu Ciyi slammed the gavel again.

"Fu Zhengqing, if you don't tell me, then I'll investigate."

Cold voice.

"Come here, take the Ling County yamen runners to search together." Fu Ciyi's cold eyes swept towards Lu Wenfeng and the county lieutenant, "Please go with us."

Fujiang, Fuhe, Zhenfeng, and Zhen responded with a voice of authority.

He took the county magistrate, the county lieutenant, and dozens of yamen runners to the county government office.

Fu Jiang and the other three searched every room tacitly before going to the file room.

The county lieutenant stepped forward and said, "Everyone, there is too much dust in the file room. There is no need to check it, right?"

"Who has the final say, you or our Lord Fu?" Fu Jiang raised his eyebrows.

"Of course, Lord Fu has the final say." The county lieutenant felt sweat on his back.

Even if nothing could be found out, the sudden arrival of an imperial envoy in Ling County was obviously well prepared.

Thinking that the chief clerk had been dragged out by Fu Zhengqing to take the blame, if something was found out now, what if Fu Zhengqing took him as the scapegoat...

Thinking of this, the county lieutenant said, "The county magistrate is slack in his duties and is now making things difficult for the county magistrate every day. I hope this brother can report this to Master Fu."

Lu Wenfeng was surprised and sneered: "Does the county magistrate know that you are a fence-sitter?"

"County magistrate, I am helpless too," explained the county lieutenant.

Fu Jiang pushed them away and went into the file room.

The search was completed last night, and today they conducted a thorough search in front of all the yamen runners and in front of the Ling County Magistrate and the County Lieutenant.

After a while, some small drawers were pried out.
