The next day, in just one day, the whole capital city was told that the young prince was a henpecked husband and extremely henpecked, and it was estimated that he would rarely appear in public in the future.
Because the princess was loved by her mother-in-law, she was not worried about offending her husband. After all, although the young prince was a rough boy, he was a filial son.
Moreover, it was said that the princess directly held a knife to the young prince's neck to threaten him, and he almost lost his life. People who saw it said that the princess had an ugly face and looked like a yaksha, which was extremely scary.
No wonder the fearless little prince is afraid of the princess.
Mo Tingzhu and Tang Wan both knew about these rumors, but they didn't care much.
Neither of them paid any attention to the rumors, which at least saved them some trouble.
.............
After Mo Tingzhu broke off relations with those bad friends, he began to relearn what he had learned before.
Ever since he drank the poisoned wine, he suffered from an unbearable headache whenever he read. The more he read, the more irritable he became. As time went by, he began to stay away from books.
However, the teacher might also have some reasons. His previous teacher was an old man, strict and old-fashioned. It was okay before, but ever since Mo Tingzhu changed his personality, the teacher became more and more disgusted with him.
A nagging old man who loved to preach and beat people. He had a bad temper at that time and was not as lenient with the teacher as before. When the old teacher hit him with a ruler, he would return it tenfold.
As time went by, the teacher finally couldn't stand it anymore and resigned, saying that he was a rotten tree that could not be carved. The teacher was highly respected and no one was willing to come to teach him anymore.
When he was young, his father was away at war and his mother was busy managing the household.
Because there is no one to supervise them, they naturally play whatever they want and never think about reading.
It was not until two years ago, when his father passed away, that he finally read some books, although not many.
But Tang Wan was very patient. She used both soft and hard tactics, giving sweet rewards after a slap in the face. Mo Tingzhu was completely coaxed into submission by her and no longer had a headache when he saw those books.
Moreover, he is actually a little henpecked and tries to reduce the number of times they have sex at night.
After all, strictly speaking, Tang Wan was half his teacher. Being a strict teacher during the day and having to sleep with him at night was really too embarrassing. It made him feel sick just thinking about it.
However, after all, he was a young man who had just started eating meat, and after a few days he was addicted to it again.
Being a husband during the day and a wife at night, there is no conflict at all.
It’s still a bit exciting, hehe.
In the blink of an eye, more than three months passed. Although Mo Tingzhu's temper had worsened, his brain was still working well.
He quickly made up for most of the missed lessons. The county examination would be held next year, and Mo Tingzhu had already been a student, so he should be able to take part.
As long as you work hard this year, you will have a great chance of passing the exam.
She believed that Mo Tingzhu would not let her down.
..........
In the blink of an eye, Tang Wan had been married for half a year. Mo's mother did not urge her to give birth. After all, she knew her son's situation best.
It was a sunny day. Tang Wan did not assign any homework to Mo Tingzhu, nor did she let him practice riding and archery.
Mo Tingzhu thought she had done something wrong, so she grabbed her and apologized and coaxed her, "Madam, I didn't drink, and I didn't neglect my studies. I always finish my studies before doing anything else."
"What happened? Please don't scare me, okay?"
Tang Wan reached out and flicked his head, scolding him angrily, "What are you thinking? In your eyes, am I just that kind of person?"
Mo Tingzhu complained, "Why is that? For the past three months, it seems like you've never let me rest."
This is true. There are days off when studying in private school, but he doesn't.
Moreover, he is not like ordinary scholars who relax after school. He also exercises to make his body strong.
However, his health has indeed improved a lot recently. He can now climb over a mountain in one breath without taking a breath. In the past, this was unimaginable.
Tang Wan originally didn't want to force him like this, but Xiaobai told her that if the man is in poor health, the child he gives birth to will naturally be unhealthy. The baby will be weak in the womb and will not grow up.
So she didn't rush to take the fertility pills, and planned to take care of his body first.
As for her, she also practiced with them and became much healthier. At least her hands and feet were no longer cold. Now that winter is almost here, her hands are still warm.
"My sister is getting married tomorrow. No matter what, I still have to go there publicly, at least to go through the motions."
"But I don't like her."
"Why?" She was a little confused. Mo Tingzhu must have never seen her sister before, so how could he talk about whether he liked her or not?
"If you don't like it, I don't like it either."
He looked serious, his eyes, which used to be so flirtatious, now seemed sincere.
"It's okay, it's just this once. If I get bullied, you have to protect me."
"Of course. In this capital, I'm not afraid of anyone except the Emperor's uncle."
Mo Tingzhu was confident. In the Marquis of Zhongyong's Mansion, the old marquis had passed away due to illness. The remaining one was called He Yi. He was good at pretending, but in fact, he was not the kind of person who could be put up on the wall.
The door lintel of the Marquis's Mansion has long been desolate and no longer has the glory of the past.
The next day, the couple packed up and set off.
Tang Wan was wearing a light blue dress today, which made her skin look as white as jade. She was emitting a bright glow, so beautiful that people dared not look directly at her.
Mo Tingzhu wore a darker blue robe, which made him look more mature and steady.
There was no smile in those almond-shaped eyes, and the whole person looked cold and heartless.
However, standing together with Tang Wan, they seem to be a particularly good match.
Tang's mother saw the palace's carriage from afar and boasted to the older sisters around her, "Although my daughter has been raised in the countryside, she has won the favor of the prince and now has no worries about food and clothing."
"My other daughter has also married a good husband. I heard that he is very likely to pass the imperial examination in two years. By then, he will have both a title and a reputation."
She was now in high spirits, and the other ladies had no choice but to agree with her and praise her children.
Tang's mother felt so comfortable after being praised that she almost felt like she was floating in the air.
After Mo Tingzhu and Tang Wan got off the car, they were invited into the mansion.
Many people who came to the wedding banquet wanted to see Tang Wan’s real face.
After all, according to legend, she is ugly and has no face, but it is really strange that she can still win the favor of the prince.
Everyone was looking forward to it, but they saw that the young prince was dressed conservatively today, and there was a slim and extremely beautiful woman standing next to him. Her face was like a lotus emerging from the water, so beautiful that people could not take their eyes off it.
They all knew that the young prince had no other women around him these days, so this angel-like woman was the princess?
