What should have been a sweet and joyous wedding night was unexpectedly ruined by the Crown Prince.
However, they are already officially married and husband and wife, so how far away is their wedding night?
Han Luoxue summoned Yunniang and Han Mingyuan. She did not mention the Crown Prince's plans, but only said that they wanted to go out for a while.
Time is of the essence, I have to go out today.
The two were naturally dissatisfied, especially Han Mingyuan, whose gaze toward Han Yuchen was rather intriguing.
Fortunately, Han Yuchen was quick-witted and promised, "We'll be back as soon as we're done dealing with this."
Although they said they would come back after finishing their business, no one could say for sure how long it would take.
The two left silently. The prince and his entourage, who were drinking, remained completely unaware.
Several county magistrates seized the opportunity to take turns toasting the crown prince. Because he had important business to attend to later, the crown prince didn't drink much, but he was in a very good mood.
He was waiting for nightfall. He believed tonight would be a wonderful night.
As for Mengyao, her expression wasn't so good. Today, the Crown Prince proposed to Han Luoxue in front of these commoners. He had completely humiliated her.
She harbored resentment towards Han Luoxue, but was powerless to do anything about it.
Fortunately, Han Luoxue was still sensible and did not agree.
Otherwise, given the Crown Prince's attitude just now, she might really want to depose herself.
But how could he dare? If he really dared to do something that betrayed him, I believe his family wouldn't let him off easily.
But Mengyao didn't expect that sometimes, when faced with interests, what does her children's marriage matter?
As darkness finally fell, Han Mingyuan's family dispersed. It must be said, rural people really do have large appetites.
So much meat, vegetables, and steamed buns—all gone!
Han Mingyuan also shared the broth from the stewed meat with everyone. They could take the broth home, add some cornmeal, and make a delicious porridge.
The farmers didn't mind; it wasn't food for them to eat themselves. Besides, no one would be shameless enough to eat it themselves.
Old Lu was always watched over at home, and in the end, he didn't even get a sip of soup, let alone meat.
They also wanted to seek help from the Crown Prince, but he didn't come out once he arrived at the main house. It wasn't going to be easy for them to see the Crown Prince.
As darkness fell, they reluctantly had to return. The steamed buns they had eaten when they arrived had only filled them halfway. After an afternoon of activities, their stomachs were rumbling again. Everyone felt they had been cheated.
As night deepened, the Crown Prince wished to stay overnight at Han Mingyuan's house. Han Mingyuan was reluctant to agree, but also felt it inappropriate to refuse.
Finally, everyone dispersed, and the prince's eyes were red with excitement.
"Your Highness, where are you going?"
Seeing that everyone was already lying down, and the Crown Prince was still going out, Mengyao asked anxiously.
"You go to sleep, what's it to you?"
"I... Your Highness, I was just concerned about you."
"Need not!"
The Crown Prince spoke with displeasure, then got up and opened the door. Mengyao, feeling uneasy, also put on a coat and went out. But as she watched the direction the Crown Prince went, her brows furrowed tightly.
If she remembered correctly, this direction should lead to the new house, right?
What was the Crown Prince doing in someone's bridal chamber in the middle of the night? Was it a wedding night for his lover?
In my memory, the Crown Prince was never this bored.
"How is it?"
Upon seeing Ding Yi, the Crown Prince became excited.
"We should get ready to start; the lights are still on."
She didn't disturb anyone and stayed outside watching.
"I stayed outside the whole time and heard some unusual noises coming from inside."
That woman is favored by the Crown Prince, and she's here to prevent that brat from taking advantage of her first.
The crown prince's face lit up with joy, and his voice was filled with barely suppressed excitement: "Have someone go in and arrest those two for me."
"By the way, be gentle with Han Luoxue."
That's the woman she's set her sights on; it wouldn't be fun if she got hurt.
Ding Yi nodded. The two men beside him went over and pushed the door open.
The prince was still waiting for the screams from inside. Unfortunately, the familiar panic didn't materialize; instead, her person emerged with a strange expression.
A very ominous feeling spread through me.
"Is something the matter?"
"Your Highness, there is no one in the room."
"What did you say? Nobody's inside? How is that possible?"
The crown prince couldn't believe it. He rushed into the room, but there was no one there. As for the noise Ding Yi had mentioned...
"Meow……"
Looking at the well-behaved kitten lying by the table, the prince was speechless.
A room with a cat is certainly quiet, isn't it? But cats do move around, and if they accidentally move something, it will naturally make some noise.
Ding Yi was stunned. He was certain he had heard the two of them talking. But what was going on now?
"Your Highness, I..."
At this moment, even the shrewd Ding Yi didn't know how to explain it.
The crown prince turned pale with anger. He suddenly remembered that he had also been a step too slow last time in the capital.
"What was the last time you heard them speak?"
The Crown Prince knew that Ding Yi wasn't stupid; if he hadn't actually heard their voices, he wouldn't have stayed outside the door.
"As it was getting dark, I heard the two of them talking."
It's getting dark? Nearly three hours have passed since then.
"Have someone chase after them and capture them both."
Damn it, he'd been tricked by those two again.
This is the second time! Those two lowly people deserve to die!
...
By this time, the two people the Crown Prince was thinking about had already left Wuling Town.
Before the wedding, Han Luoxue had already given her parents, younger brother, and younger sister the Body Strengthening Pill, and all of them were in good physical condition.
