Later, he killed the palace maids from that day and reprimanded them for not reporting it. But everyone knew the truth of the matter.
My mother became depressed because of this, and passed away less than two years later.
He continued to take in women one after another without ever stopping.
"Xue'er, I swear, I will be with you for life."
Hearing Han Yuchen's sudden serious words, Han Luoxue was slightly surprised, then suddenly laughed and said, "Brother Chen, do you still want to go to three or five places?"
Han Luoxue tilted her head, seemingly jokingly warning, "I'm a germaphobe. If you dare marry another woman in the future, I'll..."
"What will you do?"
Han Yuchen raised an eyebrow and looked at Han Luoxue with a warning expression.
"I'll divorce you and find ten or eight more handsome young men."
"You dare!"
Han Yuchen pulled Han Luoxue close and held her tightly in his arms, whispering, "If you dare to find another man, I'll kill one if you find one, and I'll kill two if you find two."
The voice carried a strong warning.
Han Luoxue stiffened and looked up at him. Due to the height difference, she could only see his firm chin when she looked up: "You're so domineering."
"But I also said that unless you find another woman, I won't do anything reckless."
Han Yuchen nodded firmly, but he felt a little uncertain inside.
His legs and feet have almost fully recovered. As Han Luoxue said, he will be able to get the recovery pill sooner or later and recover completely.
When he fully recovers, Han Yuchen cannot stay in a small mountain village forever.
Being in a position doesn't mean she can simply give it up.
Many people are waiting for his return, waiting for her to rise again. If he gives up like this, what will be the consequences for those who once placed their hopes on him?
Putting aside everything else, his maternal grandfather, his entire family, and the Zhou family might not even be able to save their lives and property in the end.
The Crown Prince is not a magnanimous person. He hasn't even ascended the throne yet, and he's already disregarding the lives of his soldiers, only caring about eliminating dissidents. What will happen when the Emperor abdicates or…
Once the crown prince has complete control of the power, it will be time for those on his side to be beheaded.
Besides, could he really pretend that nothing happened after that deadly assassination attempt?
Han Yuchen wasn't that magnanimous. Even when he was disabled, he had thought about seeking revenge on the Crown Prince and teaching him a lesson. And now he was almost fully recovered.
But when he actually reaches that position, will he still be able to give Han Luoxue a lifetime of love and companionship?
Yes, it's possible. It definitely can be done.
Some men have three wives and four concubines, claiming it's out of necessity, but isn't it really because they lack ability? When a person is truly strong enough to not fear any powerful minister, who would dare to put women around him?
This path is difficult, but he has no other choice.
Luo Xue seemed easy to talk to, but she was stubborn and headstrong. Han Yuchen knew that if he ever married another woman, Han Luo Xue would break off all ties with him, and there would be no way to keep her.
The thought of that situation caused Han Yuchen great pain.
He would never let that happen.
"You're not thinking of finding another woman right now, are you?"
Han Yuchen remained silent, his expression conflicted. Han Luoxue's heart skipped a beat, and she questioned him in disbelief.
What's going on in that little head of yours?
Han Yuchen patted Han Luoxue's head and said affectionately, "I only have you, why would I think about other women? Besides, are they as considerate as you?"
Han Luoxue felt something was off about what he said, but upon closer inspection, it seemed quite normal.
"Hmph, it's good that you know what you're doing."
"Things here are almost over, we need to go back. You should think carefully about how to explain this to my father."
The Han Mingyuan of the past was relatively mild-mannered due to his health. But now? Han Luoxue chuckled to herself.
Thinking of Han Mingyuan's protective nature, Han Yuchen also felt a headache coming on.
"Or should we just not tell her that we got married here?"
Even if his father-in-law chases him all over the village and beats him up, he still has his pride, right?
"It's not impossible. But you have to make sure that Grandpa won't see my dad in the future."
Han Yuchen: I knew this little girl wouldn't be so easy to talk to.
He was planning to be with Han Luoxue forever, so how could they not meet?
"You'll have to help me order some later."
Han Luoxue just chuckled to herself and didn't respond.
"Take a nap first, you can't sleep tonight."
They really are the most tragic newlyweds in history. They have to go on a mission the day after their wedding, and it's a very dangerous one at that.
He was even worse off; as the groom, while others enjoyed their wedding night, he slept on the floor. However, the young woman wasn't ready yet, so they would give her some time. This wasn't indefinite indulgence.
"Alright, you should get some sleep too. There's something important to do tonight. I hope everything goes smoothly and we can deal with Xu San's situation as well."
She's been thinking about Xu Xu San a lot lately. Han Luo Xue didn't intend to ask for money for the food she gave the old general.
However, Xu San was supplied with food at a high price. Given the current situation in the capital, the Crown Prince wouldn't allow the old general to become too powerful. If one plan fails, there will be a second; it's practically impossible to guard against this. Usually, the first step is to cut off the food supply, and the Crown Prince won't know she has a large quantity of food.
Under normal circumstances, even if the old general found a place to sell herbal medicine, how long could his money last?
Xu San only needed to offer a little enticement, and a third of the men went to their side. If the old general suddenly ran out of food, wouldn't it be quite normal for the remaining men to defect as well?
Han Luoxue explained her thoughts. Han Yuchen frowned; this was no small matter and needed to be discussed thoroughly with the old general. He had actually considered many ways to preserve his strength, but Xue'er's words had just provided him with a new perspective.
Judging from Xu San's posture, he probably wants to sideline the old general's side. Even if the crown prince wants to dismantle his own forces, he wouldn't massacre all the soldiers.
"You go to sleep first, I'm going out for a bit."
Han Yuchen didn't dare to delay and hurriedly went to discuss it with someone.
Han Luoxue chuckled to herself. If things were as she predicted, then the money would come pouring in, unstoppable.
The only thing that worried her was that those people had temporarily "defected." Would they ever return to the old general's side? What if, when they wanted to take them back later, they didn't want to come back?
However, she immediately thought of another problem: if she controlled the food supply, she would be the one supplying it. If she firmly controlled the food, could Xu San's soldiers really rebel?
Han Luoxue realized that in this world, food is fundamental; whoever controls food will be invincible.
