Although Fu Jinan called himself "Yan Hui" in front of Luo Deyun and repeatedly claimed to be "father-in-law", Luo Deyun still did not break the rules. As soon as he entered the study, he instinctively asked Fu Jinan to take a seat.
Fu Jinan bent down slightly: "Father-in-law, please."
Seeing his persistence, Luo Deyun stopped refusing and asked, "I heard that your trip to Jiangnan did not go well this time?"
Fu Jinan nodded and told him about going to Jiangnan and secretly going to the northwest.
After listening, Luo Deyun frowned: "Do these emperors know?"
Fu Jinan shook his head: "At present, the prince may be just testing. Even if he tells the emperor that the prince is pregnant, the emperor will not do anything to the prince. Instead, he will scare the snake."
Luo Deyun nodded: "Indeed, you are right."
Fu Jinan added: "What's more, Liu Zimo also discovered that spies from the Tumote Department had sneaked into the capital a few days ago. The third prince must have known about it. So, we might as well see how they do first."
Luo Deyun thought for a while and said: "Even if the prince extends his hand to the northwest, he will not let spies come to Beijing to contact him at this time. The risk is too great. So..."
Fu Jinan said: "My father-in-law and I have the same idea. Since that person dared to send the purse to Shengrong Pawn Shop, he must have wanted to attract our attention. If we act at this time, we will fall into their trap."
Luo Deyun agreed.
After he had his grandson and Luo Ran got married, he started to grow a beard. At this time, he stroked his beard which was not too long and said, "In my opinion, you might as well set your sights on Jiangnan now."
He has been in Jiangnan for more than ten years. If anything happens, it will be better than dispatching troops and generals elsewhere.
Fu Jinan smiled: "My father-in-law's words touched my heart. That's exactly what I meant."
Luo Deyun glanced at him and said with some regret: "It's a pity that if I propose to return to Jiangnan at this time, I'm afraid it will attract attention, which will be counterproductive."
Fu Jinan said: "This matter is not urgent, we will just wait for the opportunity."

The family of four had dinner at the Hou Mansion before heading home.
Of course, when the old lady heard that Luo Ran was back with the two children, she also called for someone to come and claimed that she wanted to see the two children. However, Yuan Shuyi dismissed her directly, and none of her words reached Luo Ran's ears.
After Luo Ran left, Yuan Shuyi looked at his son who was so tired that he went to bed early after having been arguing with the Qing Ning siblings for half an afternoon, and couldn't help but said with disgust: "If I had known he was so troublesome, I shouldn't have given birth to him in the first place. "
Luo Deyun had a drink with Fu Jin'an in the evening. Nothing could be seen on his originally dark face, but his frown could tell that he was a little uncomfortable.
Yuan Shuyi muttered something and turned around to ask the maid to get the sobering soup.
Luo Deyun drank the hangover soup, and continued what she just said: "She is a grandmother, and she still says such childish words. It makes people laugh."
Yuan Shuyi blushed and whispered, "I'm not telling you this at home. Can I tell you on the street?"
Luo Deyun also felt that what he just said was a bit harsh, so he took her hand and softened his tone and said, "I know that you really want to have a daughter like Ning'er. But Xuan'er is still young now, so don't be in a hurry."
Yuan Shuyi blushed even more when he said it, but he didn't deny it. He lowered his head, rarely showing the shyness of a young daughter, and whispered: "Anyone like Ranran and Ning'er are good."
"Hahaha……"
My originally dull mood suddenly became cheerful.
Luo Deyun suddenly turned over.
The cool breeze is blowing, the cicadas are chirping, and familiar sounds can be heard in the house...

On the other side, Luo Ran's family quickly returned to the palace.
Qing Ning and Jing Xing went to Prince Qing's Mansion and Champion Marquis' Mansion today. After struggling for a whole day, they fell asleep as soon as they got on the carriage.
Aunt Qiu and Aunt Gui hurriedly carried their two young masters down to rest. Luo Ran sat on the Arhat couch, looking at a pile of clothes in a daze. That was what Nanny Xin gave to Qiqin on the day she "died".
After I got it back, I put it there and forgot to pack it away for a while.
After Fu Jinan returned home, he went to the study to do some simple things and then came back. As soon as he came in, he saw Luo Ran staring at something motionless.
He followed her line of sight, his eyes darkened, then he came in with a normal expression, sat down next to her, held her in his arms, and said: "Don't worry, her family is fine over there. She went After that, someone will take care of you."
Luo Ran is not worried about Qiqin's future. His cousin had made arrangements before, and now he has his promise. He believes that Qiqin will have a good life in the future.
She just looked at the clothes of these children and thought of them, and unconsciously raised her head to look at someone.
Being stared at by her like this, Fu Jinan suddenly remembered what Changying said in the afternoon: "The princess also went to the Huichun Hall."
At that time, he didn't think much about it. He knew that Huichun Hall was her trousseau shop, so he just thought he was passing by to have a look. Now it seems that there should be other reasons.
His mind was spinning, his face was calm as usual, he smiled, lowered his head and kissed her forehead, and said, "What's wrong? But what's the matter?"
Luo Ran looked into his eyes.
His eyes are a bit narrow and long, with thick eyebrows on his temples, and his eyes are dark and deep. People can't figure out what he is thinking, but they can't help but be in awe, and even ordinary people dare not look at him.
At this moment, you can clearly see your own shadow in those bright eyes.
"nothing."
After enduring it again and again, Luo Ran finally said nothing.
Fu Jinan looked at her twinkling eyes, and his heart sank a little.
At night, the couple hugged each other and fell asleep after being intimate. Luo Ran did not fall asleep as quickly as before. Instead, he turned over several times before slowly closing his eyes. But she didn't see that someone above her still had clear eyes.
After waiting for a while, until a long breath came from his arms, Fu Jin'an gently turned over and got out of bed, casually picked up the clothes on the shelf and put them on.
The person keeping watch today was You Qing. When he saw the prince coming out at this time, he cheered up and stepped forward: "Your Majesty..."
"Shh!"
Fu Jinan put his index finger to his lips, signaling her to be silent, and said, "I remembered that I still have something to deal with. Please take good care of the princess."
Youqing: "Yes!"
Fu Jinan's figure disappeared into the night.
But he didn't go far, he stood on the path after leaving the yard.
Changying was also startled when he saw the prince coming out of the princess's yard in the middle of the night, and hurriedly came over: "Your Majesty."
Fu Jinan turned around and glanced at the courtyard he had just come out of. It was quiet inside and said in a deep voice: "Go and check who the princess met when she went to the Huichun Hall today and what she said."
"yes!"
Changying took the order and did not dare to delay, so he went to do it immediately.
Fu Jinan stood there for a while before turning around and going back.
Besides, just now, as soon as he left, Youqing heard movement coming from the inner room. She hurriedly turned around and went in. She saw Luo Ran already sitting on the bed with the quilt in his arms, looking out the window.
She hurried over: "Princess, why are you awake? The prince said he would come back as soon as he went."
Luo Ran withdrew his gaze and looked at Youqing blankly. After a while, he said, "Starting tomorrow, you will ask people to pay attention to some of the outer study rooms."
