The couple nodded.

After talking to Concubine Yun for a while, Fu Ciyi said goodbye: "It's getting late, we should leave."

Concubine Yun nodded gently: "It's true that we can't stay in the cold palace for too long, you'd better leave quickly."

Especially at this critical juncture.

If Wen Yu wants to be the crown prince, he must not be caught making any mistakes by others.

"Empress Dowager, shall we leave then?" Yan Funing asked.

Concubine Yun finally took her hand and patted it gently: "Good child, let's go."

Yan Funing nodded and followed Fu Ciyi away.

In order to prevent others in the cold palace from seeing them, as soon as the two of them left the room, Fu Ciyi put his arm around Yan Funing's waist and flew directly outside the high wall.

It landed in a moment.

He helped her to straighten her fur collar, brushed off the snow on her hair, and asked in a gentle voice: "When we got on the carriage today, you said that I was useful to you. You said nothing more here. Can I know if you saw me in your dream?"

"Did I really say that?" Yan Funing covered her mouth.

Seeing her flustered expression, Fu Ciyi grabbed her hand and looked at her seriously.

"Well, tell me."

"I..." Yan Funing bit her lips.

Seeing her expression of fear and her body trembling slightly, he felt that the dream was not that simple, so he asked again: "Is the terrible thing in the dream related to me?"

"Husband, please don't ask."

Yan Funing's voice was filled with tears.

"Okay, I won't ask. Let's talk about something else."

She changed the subject: "Concubine Yun has been living in the cold palace for too long. Can you let her out? Can you ask the new emperor to issue an order?"

"No, Long Yi is a very cold-blooded person, not to mention that Concubine Yun is a complete stranger to him. How could he easily issue an order for a stranger? Moreover, he has just succeeded to the throne and has not yet ascended the throne, so dignity is the most important."

"I understand. Do I have to wait until you ascend to that position before I can release Concubine Yun from the cold palace?"

It's too far away.

How old was Concubine Yun at that time?
When she thought of this, she thought of her uncle. Although she didn't have many opportunities to communicate with him, she had seen his changes.

He is actually quite kind.

He told her more than once that he shouldn't interfere with her marriage with Fu Ciyi and asked her not to blame him.

It is rare in the world for an emperor to say such words.

In addition, she didn't get enough sleep, and in her dreams she recalled her tragic death in her previous life, and how Fu Ciyi raped her.

Taking all these things together, she wanted to cry.

Suddenly, tears began to fall.

Wipe it off quickly.

Fu Ciyi noticed it and gently wiped her tears.

After all, we are in the palace, so there are some things that are inconvenient to say or ask.

When the couple arrived in front of the former dynasty's mourning hall, Fu Ciyi was stopped by Long Yi and went to talk aside.

Yan Funing went alone to kowtow to her uncle.

As she kowtowed, her tears fell again.

Suddenly I heard someone say to her: "I don't know why she is crying?"

"Yes."

"Perhaps she shed tears because she thought about the fact that she is a daughter of the Yan family and that the new emperor hates the Yan family the most. She will definitely be separated from her husband by then."

Yan Funing turned her head away.

She could tell that the people who were talking were Long Yi's daughters-in-law.

Two of them are considered her sisters-in-law, and the other is considered her brother's sister-in-law.

She couldn't figure out who they were with specifically, because although they lived in the Prince of Jin's Mansion together, she had only seen them a few times, let alone talked to them.

But she couldn't stand their sarcasm and ridicule at this moment, so she stood up and shouted, "Shouldn't I cry when my uncle the emperor passes away?" The three women were choked by the question.

One of them quickly whispered, "You are so hypocritical. You must be crying about losing your status as a prince's consort."

"My marriage to my husband was arranged by my uncle. According to what you said, will my father annul the imperial decree of my uncle? Or will my father let me divorce my husband?"

"Divorced, definitely divorced." said another woman.

"Then let's wait and see." Yan Funing said calmly, "I cried just now because my uncle loved me. Before he passed away, my husband and I stayed with him. Of course, you don't understand the love that the emperor had for his younger generation when he was dying."

The three women looked at each other.

Unable to answer the call for a while.

Outside the mourning hall, in a quiet place.

Long Yi asked Fu Ciyi directly: "Your uncle asked you to purge the Long Yaodong lineage of Longfeng. Is there any result?"

"Basically cleared, except for Cai Tingzhou who used the concubine's daughter's life to exchange for the legitimate daughter's life. The main reason was that the name was not written on the document, which gave Cai Tingzhou an opportunity to take advantage of it."

"Women's affairs are trivial, just clear them up."

"If your Majesty has nothing else to say, I will take my leave first." Fu Ciyi bowed.

Hearing him call him like this, Long Yi finally had a smile on his face, but he still said forcefully: "With your current status, the position of Prime Minister should be resigned."

"Yes."

Fu Ciyi clenched his back teeth.

Long Yi said: "You are a prince, and a prince cannot be the chief minister of the cabinet. Since I have not yet officially ascended the throne, you will retain the position of chief minister for the time being."

After all, I am the new emperor and his father.

How could the Prime Minister of a cabinet be a son?

As an emperor, does he need his son to assist him?
"Yes." Fu Ciyi responded again.

What Long Yi meant was that after his enthronement ceremony, he would no longer be the Prime Minister of the Cabinet.

I'm afraid I can't even stay in the cabinet.

Long Yi was pleased to see that he had become obedient, and waved his hand for him to leave.

At this time, Yan Funing walked out of the palace.

Fu Ciyi came looking for her, and the couple left the palace together.

When they got on their own carriage, Yan Funing could no longer suppress her annoyance: "There were three women just now, probably your sister-in-law and brother's wife. What they said made me angry."

"say what?"

"She said that my crying was fake, and that we would separate again, and this time it would not be a divorce, but you would be forced to divorce me."

"will not."

Fu Ciyi held her hand.

As long as he appeared a little more obedient, Long Yi would not interfere with their marriage.

Yan Funing sat sideways, staring at him straight in the eyes: "If the new emperor really orders to separate us, my husband, what will you do?"

"No one can separate us, including Long Yi. If he really dares to issue an order, I will rebel!"

As soon as the man finished speaking, Yan Funing quickly covered his mouth.

"You don't want to live anymore?"

Fu Ciyi gently took her hand and said solemnly, word by word: "If you are not involved in my life, then what is the meaning of living?"

Hearing this, Yan Funing's eyes were filled with warmth: "Husband."

She shouted and threw herself into his arms.

Soon tears started falling again.

"Ningning, can you tell me what you dreamed about?"

"It's a long story, are you willing to listen?"

Fu Ciyi nodded gently: "Of course I am willing."

"I often have dreams. The things in my dreams are very scary. The dream location is basically in the Fu Mansion. In the dream, the Fu Mansion is your villa, which was given to you by the emperor after you won the first place in the imperial examination. Now I think this emperor is our uncle."
