Just because the Sultan doesn't care doesn't mean everyone doesn't care.
The servants in the Prince's Mansion were talking about the newly arrived hostess.
"Do you think the relationship between our Crown Princess and the Crown Prince is bad? Otherwise, why didn't they even have a wedding?"
"Yeah, didn't she use some shady means to marry in?"
"I heard earlier that our Crown Prince had no intention of participating in this concubine selection, yet only a few days later, he suddenly requested permission to marry this woman."
Han Feng went to see Han Zhao to discuss the plan of sending troops, and happened to pass by and heard a few maids gossiping.
Hearing them slandering Sultan Ruo, Han Feng walked up to several maids.
"Who taught you the rule of speaking ill of your master behind his back?"
Old Li, the butler who followed the prince, saw that his master was unhappy, so he quickly stepped forward and scolded several maids.
"Bitch! Why don't you slap her!"
Several maids were so frightened that they knelt on the ground and trembled, and began to slap themselves in the face when they heard the words.
After a few seconds, the faces of several maids became red and swollen.
Han Feng said coldly:
"This time I will fine you two months' salary each as a lesson. If you do it again, I will pull out your tongues."
Several maids kowtowed quickly to express that they would never dare to do it again.
The two came to the meeting room, and Han Zhao asked Han Feng:
"Royal brother, what's going on between you and the Imperial Sister-in-law? You got married so suddenly that even I was shocked. And why have you been in the Military Affairs Office so often recently? Are you avoiding the Imperial Sister-in-law?"
Han Feng looked at the military map he had just obtained and said coldly:
"Don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask. Do you want your tongue pulled out too?"
Hearing Han Feng's tone, Han Zhao felt a chill rising on his back.
He had personally witnessed his brother pulling out someone's tongue.
He doesn't want to experience that tragedy.
Han Zhao wisely shut up and started discussing business with Han Feng.
Sultan Ruo prepared some daily necessities for Han Zhao in the room that he would need for the expedition.
The two of them were already husband and wife, and after Sudan Ruo entered the mansion, it was natural for him to live with Han Feng.
But Han Feng had been avoiding Su Danruo, so he basically slept in the military camp these days.
The Sultan would be quite comfortable living alone.
However, since Sultanruo has already married Han Feng, as the Crown Princess, it is naturally her responsibility to prepare luggage for the Crown Prince.
In addition to the normal clothes needed, Sudan Ruo also needs to embroider a handkerchief for Han Feng.
This is the custom of the Dasheng Kingdom.
If a man went out to fight and had a wife, his wife would embroider a handkerchief for him.
Firstly, when the husband is lonely, looking at the handkerchief can bring him some comfort.
Secondly, it also gives men a hope in their hearts that they can turn danger into safety when they encounter difficulties, and it represents the wife's blessing for her husband to return safely.
In addition, since the two were newly married, Sudan Ruo embroidered a lotus flower on the handkerchief and left their names next to it.
The night before the expedition, Han Feng returned to his mansion to rest.
As soon as he returned home, he would have to face Sultan Ruo.
The two had dinner together.
During meals, Han Feng habitually picked up food for Sudanruo.
Han Feng only realized when the dish was placed in Su Danruo's bowl that Su Danruo's hand had healed and he no longer needed his help in serving the dish.
After realizing this, Han Feng felt a little empty in his heart, as if something was missing.
He was also worried that Sudanruo would be unhappy with his behavior, so he carefully observed Sudanruo's expression.
Then he saw Sudanruo also picked up a piece of food for himself with his chopsticks.
"Brother Feng took care of me for so long, I also want to take care of Brother Feng."
Hearing Su Danruo calling him brother in the same sweet voice as before, Han Feng suddenly felt that the title of brother was a bit annoying.
"We are already married, so don't call me brother anymore."
Sultan Ruo thought Han Feng was unhappy, so he restrained his smile and said:
"Yes, Your Highness."
Han Feng felt like he was almost choked to death. That wasn't what he meant!
Aren't you supposed to call me husband after marriage? Why does this woman seem more distant the more she calls him that?
But it's better than being treated as her brother. Feelings can be cultivated slowly.
Han Feng silently decided in his heart that he would cultivate the girl's feelings for him after he came back from the war.
Having made up his mind, Han Feng stopped hesitating and continued to feed Su Danruo.
Luoluo stood aside and watched the two of them. She thought they looked very sweet and was happy for her princess.
The princess had a miserable life since childhood. Her mother died early and she was not loved by the emperor. As soon as she reached the age of marriage, she was sent to marry a foreign prince.
After finally marrying the man she wanted to marry, the prince was about to send troops again.
Thinking of this, Luluo began to worry about the two of them again, wondering when the prince would come back.
When the two were getting ready to go to bed at night, Han Feng took out a quilt from the cabinet and planned to sleep on the floor for the night.
Seeing this, Sudan stopped Han Feng's action.
"Your Highness, you will be leaving for battle tomorrow. How can you not get a good night's rest? You and I are already husband and wife. Let's go to bed together!"
After saying that, he pulled Han Feng towards the bed.
Han Feng followed Su Danruo obediently, his mind full of thoughts.
If Sultan took the initiative to invite him to sleep in the same bed, does it mean that she doesn't hate being with him?
She was worried that he wouldn't get enough rest, so she was worried about him! Did her worrying about herself mean that she had feelings for him?
The more Han Feng thought about it, the more confused he became. When the two of them walked into the curtain, he stopped Su Danruo.
He didn't want to be alone with his random thoughts. He tried not to think about these things these days, for fear that he would lose control if he started thinking about them.
But now he was about to leave, he wanted to get things clear!
"Ruoruo, do you hate me for what happened that night?"
Su Danruo was stunned by Han Feng's question, then shook his head.
"Your Highness, I know that what happened that day was just an accident. How could I hate you?"
Han Feng's heart was relieved instantly, and without giving Sudan Ruo a chance to breathe, he asked again:
"Then Ruoruo likes me?"
Su Danruo didn't expect that Han Feng was usually quiet, so what happened today that he suddenly asked such a question.
After asking this question, Han Feng regretted that he had asked too directly and should have been more tactful.
As soon as he asked the question, he felt his heart pounding in his chest.
He was both looking forward to and a little afraid of Sudanruo's answer, afraid of hearing something he didn't want to hear.
This was the first time that Sudan was asked such a serious question, and her face turned red.
She wanted to get away with it, but Han Feng's eyes on her made her unable to ignore them.
She looked up at Han Feng and clearly saw the expectation in Han Feng's eyes, as well as a thin layer of sweat on his forehead due to nervousness.
Seeing Han Feng so nervous, Su Danruo also adjusted his attitude, sat up straight and told Han Feng,
"Brother Feng, I like you. I have liked you since the first time I called you Brother Feng."
