Quick Transmigration: Survive to the End

Chapter 449 World 89

Sun Dahu was placed under guard. Yinyin thought she would let the Prince's Mansion handle the matter, and she would go back and use her own people to investigate secretly.

Unexpectedly, before they could even return, Fu Yuanzhou said, "Yinyin, do you want to stay in Yangliao City for the next few days? If there's any progress on Sun Dahu's side, I can immediately send someone to inform you."

Yin Yin was perfectly aware of his little scheme.

Sun Dahu's matter is secondary; the important thing is to let her live in the city.

Yin Yin wanted to use this incident to test Fu Yuanzhou's tolerance for her, so she deliberately hesitated for a moment before speaking: "My agreement doesn't count, my father's approval is also required."

As long as she didn't refuse outright, Fu Yuanzhou was happy: "Indeed, we should get my father-in-law's approval first."

Father Chu really didn't want to agree, but since his daughter was determined to go, it wouldn't be good for him to stop her too much. So he simply left his son and daughter-in-law at home while he went with his daughter.

Under his watchful eye, how could anyone act recklessly?

Yin Yin had no objection to this, but Fu Yuanzhou was somewhat disappointed.

He was still considering inviting Yinyin to visit the Prince's residence more often, but now that Chu's father was around, he didn't really dare to, since he knew that Chu's father had never been very satisfied with him.

Soon, what Sun Dahu was hiding became less important.

News has spread from the Ming Dynasty that General Li has been accused of treason and rebellion and is on his way back to the capital.

Yin Yin and her companion kindly asked the guards watching over Sun Dahu to subtly reveal the news to him, which quickly enraged him.

"Nonsense! The general has never committed treason!"

After Sun Dahu finished speaking, he wanted to invite Fu Yuanzhou to see him.

Following Yin Yin's instructions, the guards watching over him deliberately said, "The prince is so busy every day that you can't just see him whenever you want."

Another person said, "The prince really isn't at his residence today. I heard he went out to play and might not be back for the next couple of days."

Sun Dahu became anxious, but his injuries hadn't healed. He could get up and eat by himself, but he couldn't walk very far, let alone knock out the guard watching him and run away.

Seeing that he was really anxious, the two guards slowly said, "If you really have something urgent, we can go and ask your advisor for help."

Now that they've been rescued, Sun Dahu doesn't have time to stall. He can only choose whoever is available and request an audience with Wen's advisors.

In fact, Fu Yuanzhou did not go out, and Yinyin was even at home today. They just deliberately avoided seeing Sun Dahu.

Their statuses were already unequal, and since Sun Dahu had previously concealed something, there was no reason for him to be able to see Fu Yuanzhou whenever he wanted.

Besides, Fu Yuanzhou had other important matters to attend to at the moment.

He was showing Yin Yin around the palace and asking her if she had any suggestions for renovations.

In Yangliao, only the Chu family was the richest. The others, including Fu Yuanzhou's mansion, were just so-so. They were simply houses built according to regulations, and they had everything one would expect.

However, given Fu Yuanzhou's unloved nature, the interior decorations are unlikely to be very nice.

Yinyin walked around and had a good grasp of the layout of the houses. She said, "This house is good in every way, but it lacks a bit of charm. We can rearrange it again in the future."

Fu Yuanzhou immediately nodded and then suggested, "Yinyin, you usually like to practice riding and archery, so why don't we level these courtyards on the west side and build a training ground for you?"

The courtyards that Fu Yuanzhou pointed out, although close to the front courtyard, actually belong to the inner courtyard. According to the functional plan, they are intended to be reserved for Fu Yuanzhou's future concubines.

Yin Yin remained outwardly calm, but asked, "If these courtyards are leveled, isn't Your Highness worried that there won't be enough room for everyone to live in?"

“How could there not be enough room?” Fu Yuanzhou said seriously. “You and I will live in the main courtyard, the east courtyard will be left for the children, and the west courtyards are not needed anyway.”

Yin Yin turned her head away from him: "Then when there are fewer places in the future, Your Highness should remember that it was your own decision and not blame me."

“How could that be?” Fu Yuanzhou disregarded the proper separation between men and women, took Yin Yin’s hand and promised her, “I know what you’re worried about, Yin Yin, but I can assure you that I will only have you as my queen, and there will be no one else.”

“If you’re just trying to coax me, don’t say things like that. I’ll take it seriously,” Yin Yin said, looking at him. “You’re only making this promise because you’re touched that I like you.”

Under Fu Yuanzhou's brightening gaze, Yin Yin maintained her previous mood, even with a hint of pessimism: "If another woman likes you in the future, she might treat her as well as she treats me now."

"No, absolutely not!" Fu Yuanzhou hugged her tightly. "Even if someone else says they like me in the future, it won't be you."

“I have nothing now, and no one but you, Yinyin, would want to be with me,” Fu Yuanzhou whispered. “Actually, I heard it all. Your father said you are ‘blind’.”

Yinyin couldn't help but glare at him: "Isn't that right? Otherwise, why would I have only ever fallen for you all these years?"

"Even if you are the King of Yangliao, if I don't like you, there are plenty of ways to refuse!"

In the end, Yin Yin's face still showed a hint of arrogance.

Fu Yuanzhou felt a soft, sweet warmth in his heart. Holding Yin Yin in his arms, he sighed, "Yin Yin, when can we officially become husband and wife? I can't wait any longer."

"Then you'd better just wait and see," Yin Yin chuckled and whispered in his ear, "Before the wedding, you can enjoy some more carefree days. But after the wedding... I'm a jealous and domineering person who will interfere in everything and won't hold back."

“I like you just the way you are,” Fu Yuanzhou said. “Once we’re married, I’ll listen to everything you say.”

"You can't say that, it makes me seem too domineering or like I'm suppressing you," Yinyin took a step back at the right time. "It's better to listen to you on important matters and me on minor matters. As for what constitutes an important matter, I'll decide, okay?"

“Okay,” Fu Yuanzhou was acting like a complete tyrant at this moment, agreeing to whatever Yin Yin said.

Yinyin was satisfied and began discussing with Fu Yuanzhou how to modify the house.

Fu Yuanzhou calculated his settlement money and salary, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, the Crown Prince had given a generous compensation, so they could still afford it.

However, he also started to consider whether he should start a business, otherwise, after they got married, he would have to make do with Yin Yin and not be able to afford the barbecue she used to like.

Yinyin didn't know what he was thinking, but even if she did, she would only encourage him.

Although she is rich, it's not impossible for Fu Yuanzhou to do something if he wants to.

Anyway, she knew exactly how much Fu Yuanzhou could earn in Yangliao, so she wasn't afraid that he would get arrogant once he had money.
