General Han Tong felt that staying behind was a mistake. After the princess left, the duke didn't say a word, he just stared at the list of supplies, the atmosphere was extremely depressing. The sun outside the window shone brightly, but the inside of the room was gloomy, to the point where he felt a chill down his spine.
Actually, he had already finished what he wanted to do. Although he didn't have anything urgent to do, it wasn't a big deal for him to sit down like this.
"Your Highness," he began tentatively, "this lowly general should leave."
Prince Chu didn't even raise his head as he replied indifferently, "Why are you leaving? You haven't even eaten the snacks yet."
Han Tong gulped down his saliva. He really made him eat his … It had been sent by the princess herself. He scratched his head. Can't you just eat a piece of dessert?
Since the King had spoken, he did not hold back. Opening the Food Box, he took a piece and placed it in his mouth, "Un, it's really not bad."
He didn't have much time to savor the taste before swallowing it. He thought for a moment, then took another piece and ate it, his eyes squinted as he carefully savored it: "There is a lotus leaf's fragrance, does Your Highness not want to taste it?"
Morong Gan pinched the center of his brows, looking a little tired, "Take it even if you like it."
"The wangfei intentionally sent them over. I've taken all of them away, that's not good, right?"
Morong Gan was not in a good mood, "If you like it, then take it.
Han Tong guessed that he had drank quite a lot in the afternoon, and when he shouted loudly, the smell of alcohol immediately came out. Prince Chu was not a greedy person, probably because he was unhappy, so he drank so much in the afternoon. He was someone who would not reveal his emotions easily. To be able to make him do this, other than the Princess Chu, he did not think too much about it.
Han Tong tried to enlighten him, and said cautiously, "Prince, this is like a war between husband and wife. If the enemy advances, I will retreat, and the enemy retreat, I will advance.
Morong Gan finally raised his head, "You saw through it?"
Han Tong, "..." Who wouldn't see the look on your face?
Morong Gan rubbed his face, minding his own business, "If even you could see that, then she … "Forget it, forget it …" He put down the list in his hand and leaned back in his chair. He let out a long sigh, as if he had put down a heavy burden.
Han Tong took the opportunity to advise: "Your Highness, between husband and wife, you must be honest. If you have anything to say, just say it, there is no gap that you cannot cross."
"Honest?" He snorted, but didn't say anything for a long time.
Han Tong waited for a long time, but before he could say anything, he remembered that his family had its own issues, the beautiful name of Prince Chu's beloved wife had already spread throughout the world, and it was only a whim now, in the end, he would compromise.
After tasting the snacks, it was time for him to leave. He stood up again, "Your Highness, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave first."
Han Tong waited for a while, and thought that he had tacitly agreed to it. He gently lifted his leg and turned around, and just took two steps, when he heard the cold and hard voice of the Prince Chu, "We agreed to drink together. Why are you leaving?"
Han Tong paused in his steps, laughed coyly and turned around: "I saw that Your Highness seems to have drank it in the afternoon …"
"You can't drink it at night after lunch?" The Prince Chu snorted, "What rule is this? If this king wants to drink, who would dare?"
"Yes, yes, yes. Since Your Highness wants to drink it, I shall accompany you to the end." Han Tong could only turn back and sit down.
With nothing else to do, Han Tong helped to organize the list. After a while, he heard the Prince Chu's question, "Are the supervisors sent out once a month?"
"Yes, Your Highness." Han Tong felt it was strange that he would bring up this matter for no reason.
"Just keep Du Changfeng at the Dark Water Town. He doesn't need to rotate."
"Huh?" Han Tong did not understand. "Why?"
Prince Chu smirked. He laughed coldly. It would be convenient for Shi Yingying to pester him, unless he agreed to be the son-in-law of the Shi Family, otherwise, he would stay in the Dark Water Town for the rest of her life.
"Don't ask so much. Just do as I say."
"Yes, this lowly general listens." Han Tong had always been confused by the relationship between Prince Chu and Du Changfeng, one was the main marshal and the other was a subordinate.
"Your Highness, Du Changfeng …"
"Don't mention him in front of This King."
Han Tong, "..." Didn't you mention it first?
Knowing that he couldn't leave, Han Tong calmed his heart down and sat down obediently. At dinner time, Prince Chu ordered people to set up some dishes and wine in the room and started to eat with him.
first poured wine for Prince Chu, then poured himself a cup. Just as he raised his cup to call the Duke, he saw that Prince Chu had already poured the wine into his mouth, and passed the cup over.
Han Tong, "..."
"What are you blanking out for? Pour the wine!"
Han Tong had no choice but to pour for him, "Your Royal Highness, slow down …."
The word "drink" had yet to come out from his mouth, and the cup of wine that he had just poured had fallen again. Han Tong could tell that Prince Chu wanted to drink, no matter how good his alcohol capacity was, it was easy for him to get drunk from drinking, getting drunk hurt after drinking too much …
"Your Highness, don't. If you have anything to say, please say it to me. Don't bow to me …"
"What can This King do? This King wants to drink, why do you care?" Prince Chu glared at him.
When the Prince Chu glared at him, Han Tong was somewhat terrified. He handed over the cup, and only had the chance to pour the wine.
Inside, Bai Qianfan went back to her room in a huff. She threw the sachet that was half-embroidered on the window on the ground, unable to calm down and even kicked the sachet twice.
Yue Lao was dumbstruck. Little Princess was the easiest to get along with.
"Princess, you …" "What's wrong?" Yue Lao picked up the Balsam on the ground, preparing to do it for the prince. Seems like she's getting angry with the king. She patted the dust off the Balsam. "Why are you and the Balsam angry? Has it angered you?"
Bai Qianfan sat on the embroidered block and said hatefully, "Cut it for me!"
"Yo, you're so angry!" Seeing her huffing and puffing, laurel couldn't help but find it funny. "What's the matter? Tell your servant to judge and see who can make our wangfei so angry?"
Bai Qianfan could not hide his feelings, she immediately poured them all out and patted the table, "I was kind enough to send him some snacks, but I didn't ask him to eat with me, and she even said words that were fake, this guy is too hateful!"
There was nothing wrong with the words of the Prince Chu. The laurel could only continue, "Your highness is praising you dearly and is afraid of being scorched by the sun. On such a hot day, let the servants send you off next time."
Bai Qianfan said hatefully, "Did he say the opposite of what she wanted to say, thinking that I can't hear it?"
"On what basis should Your Highness say the opposite?" He must be in a lot of pain, so he couldn't help but sound a little anxious. Forget about others, just yesterday, that prince should have entered the city at night, but he came back with the intention of returning home. He came back before the gate was even closed, just so he could rush to meet the princess. "
When Bai Qianfan heard it, she did not say anything for a long time. She silently took the scented bag from Yue Gui's hands and hung it up again at the window, muttering to herself, "Even if that's the case, you can't have that kind of attitude."
Yue Guiyi heaved a sigh of relief, then laughed: "You are the only person who is close to you, my prince is usually calm, look who he is talking to, it's not just you."
Bai Qianfan finally smiled, "Then this is my honor."
