Be A Virtuous Wife! So Tough!

C154 – Do You Think Your Husband Is Good?

Although Crown Prince Zhao didn’t try to win over the courtiers, everyone knew that more than half of the officials favored Crown Prince Zhao in the court. It wasn’t easy for them to persuade a young prefecture lord, but they still couldn’t do anything about it.

“It’s strange. My men did find out that Crown Prince had a private armory and recruited private soldiers. How could they let him get wind of this beforehand and cover it up?”

First Prince narrowed his eyes. “This means we have his spies around us. I didn’t expect him to be so capable at such a young age.”

“You’re saying… it looks like we need to clean up the people around us first. Otherwise, we can forget about doing anything!”

Old Prince thought of his precious daughter, and his eyes became fierce. He had clearly persuaded the king to secretly change his beloved daughter to a maid. Anyway, the people of the Southern Sand Country had never seen his daughter before, so it did not make any difference who married her.

Unfortunately, the plan that he thought was flawless was seen through by Crown Prince Zhao. He even secretly changed Tangxi back. By the time he found out that Tangxi was the one who married her, it was already too late.

Thinking that he might never see Tangxi again in his life, Old Prince’s heart was like a knife cutting through his heart.

If he did not take revenge, he would be a father in vain!

It was already late at night when Tang Yue returned to the manor. He was physically and mentally exhausted, but there was still a trace of nervousness. When he entered the room and locked the door, he asked Crown Prince Zhao: “When did First Prince learn about the private army?”

Crown Prince Zhao untied the strap of his cloak and poured him a cup of hot water. “I don’t know. Maybe I was followed by someone when I went to the mansion.”

“Hmm? Then how did you know he would expose it tonight?”

“Your husband is not a god. He can predict and calculate. How did he know that First Prince would do this?” Crown Prince Zhao was sitting on a soft couch with a feather pillow made by Tang Yue on his back. There was a thick wool blanket under the pillow. It was really comfortable. No wonder Tang Yue liked to stay here.

Tang Yue was dumbfounded. He moved closer to him and stared at his eyes for two minutes. Unfortunately, he could not tell if he was lying or not.

Crown Prince Zhao grabbed his arm and pulled him onto his body. He bit his neck and said, “Do you think your husband is very powerful?”

Tang Yue pinched his chin and moved his head away. He laughed and said, “Yes. Otherwise, how could you become the crown prince and they could only hide in a corner and cry?”

“That may not be the case. They will not cry until the last moment.”

“It is hard to say. I saw that your big brother was going to hide in his room and cry when he went back. It was not easy for him to design a perfect return performance. In the end, he lost both his husband and his soldiers. The way he appeared was terrible.”

Tang Yue pushed Crown Prince Zhao inside and laid on his own bed. The two of them leaned against each other and whispered to each other.

“He has been away from the government for so many years. How would he know that I have grown up?”

Tang Yue looked at his lower body meaningfully and nodded. “Yes, he has grown up. He is already married.”

Crown Prince Zhao’s eyes darkened. He lifted Tang Yue’s hair and rubbed it on his face. “Yes, I am married.”

Crown Prince couldn’t help but smile when he thought of this.

“Tell me first. How did you know he would complain? You even transferred my students over.” Tang Yue’s curiosity was piqued.

That’s nothing. The two villages aren’t far from each other. When we first chose the location, we were just trying to make things easier. If someone was injured, they could be treated immediately. That’s why there are medicine shops and equipment in the village.

“It’s the new year. Most of the people have gone back to celebrate the festival. The remaining few hundred people have gathered in the village together. As for that General Wei, it was just a coincidence that he ran into them copying medical books when he went there.”

“I do know about that. Manager Liao sent all the papers over. There were three big boxes. Other than the ones you sent to the Palace, I sent people to send them to the manor. I asked them to copy medical books when they had the time. I didn’t expect that they would start copying before the Lunar New Year even ended.”

Actually, neither of them had thought that this was because it was their first time seeing paper. In fact, the two of them did not expect that because it was their first time seeing paper, the people in the Manor were very excited. They wanted to try writing on paper, so after eating the New Year’s Eve dinner, they lit the lights in the courtyard and began to work together.

“Looks like it’s all thanks to paper. Tomorrow, I’ll give Manager Liao a big red packet!” Tang Yue had never experienced such a thing in his two lifetimes. It was a lie to say that he was not nervous.

No matter what dynasty it was, raising private soldiers to make weapons was not allowed. If he was really caught red-handed, That would be a big crime.

With Crown Prince Zhao’s identity, King of South Jin could think of the wrong thing without even blinking his eyes. When the time came, First Prince would add fuel to the fire and tell the truth. Who knew what would happen?

“Tell me. This First Prince has been quiet for so many years. Why did he suddenly run out and jump around?” Tang Yue felt that either First Prince had been hiding his strength and scheming all these years, or something had provoked his nerves.

“We’ll find out after we check it out. There aren’t many people who have contact with him in the past few days.” Crown Prince Zhao covered Tang Yue’s eyes and said softly, “We’ll talk about it tomorrow. Go to sleep first.”

“Are we going to sleep here?” Tang Yue asked. Tang Yue looked at the soft couch that could only fit two people lying on the side and asked Crown Prince Zhao.

“Why not?” Crown Prince Zhao asked. Crown Prince Zhao jumped off the couch and went to the bed to carry the blanket over Tang Yue. Then he got into the blanket himself and hugged Tang Yue on the side.

The two of them huddled together. It was hot, but they could not stretch their arms and legs. Tang Yue wanted to turn over, but his legs were pressed down by Crown Prince Zhao.

“Don’t move. Be careful of falling down.”

Tang Yue did not move. He whispered, “If you fall, you fall.”

The night passed quietly. The next day, Tang Yue woke up. It was already late in the morning. Crown Prince Zhao was no longer by his side. The bed was still warm.

He stayed for a few minutes before he got up. He moved his limbs and found that his limbs were not stiff or numb at all. It was really strange.

After putting on his clothes, He knocked on the door and came in with hot water and toiletries. Tang Yue asked him, “Is His Highness still in the residence?”

“Yes. He casually ate some breakfast and went into the study to discuss matters. He told me to call him for dinner when you get up.”

“What did you prepare for breakfast today?”

“It’s almost the same as yesterday. There’s an extra plate of plum blossoms. It’s made of fresh plum blossoms in the backyard. It smells so good.”

“Does it taste good?” Tang Yue asked.

“Of course it smells good. Chef Yu’s cooking skills are unparalleled. Uh, this servant only ate a small piece. It was for Chef Yu to taste.” He explained.

“Don’t worry, I’ll reward you with a few more pieces later. There’s no rush for breakfast. I want to eat river flour today.” Tang Yue actually wanted to eat noodles more. He hadn’t touched noodles for more than half a year.

However, it was almost time. When the caravan brought back the flour from North Yue, he would first make dumplings and make another fried bun to satisfy his craving.

If they could successfully get some seeds of wheat, it would be even more perfect. He would not have to worry about not having cooked wheaten food in the future.

“River powder? What is that? Is it delicious?” He tied his belt and raised his head, staring at Tang Yue with a pair of clear eyes.

Although this child was not as smart as Xiang Ann and was not as quick-witted, he had a pure and kind heart. It was pretty good. Anyway, there was no need for him to do anything.

“You’ll know when I finish it.” Tang Yue didn’t eat river powder often in the past. It was more popular in the south, but he still remembered the taste. He stir-fried it, boiled it, and stir-fried it.

As soon as he entered the kitchen, the servants in the kitchen all went up to him and knelt down. Tang Yue thought to himself, In a few days’ time, it would be better to make a small kitchen in his yard. It would save him the trouble of making a dish every time.

It was not difficult to make the river flour. First, the rice was ground into powder, then the water was mixed into a paste, and a thin layer was placed in the steamer. It would be fine as long as it was cooked, but it would take a long time to make it one by one.

Tang Yue planned to make two bowls of cold river flour first. As long as he poured the water into the pot, it would be delicious. It would be quick and convenient, and he would cook the stir-frying river powder later in the evening.

When everything was ready, Tang Yue brought the waiter who carried the food box to the study room. They saw the study room. Sure enough, there were quite a number of people who smiled and said, “It’s a good time to let everyone have a taste of this new delicacy.”

“Another new trick? Ever since young master entered the manor, we have been blessed with good food.” A middle-aged man with a goatee praised.

Tang Yue remembered him. It was said that this man was saved by Crown Prince Zhao when he was at the border. The people of North Yue only gained Crown Prince Zhao’s trust and trust after all kinds of probing and verification, as well as getting along with him for a long time.

Everyone present was Crown Prince Zhao’s advisor. There were all kinds of martial arts. To put it bluntly, it was the same as Crown Prince Zhao’s brain, giving him advice and suggestions.

It could be said that Crown Prince Zhao’s ability to see and learn today had contributed a lot to these people.

“That was also because of His Highness.” Another advisor had already stood up and walked over. “It smells so good. It seems to have the taste of lamb.”

“It’s your nose.”

Everyone stood up and greeted Tang Yue.

The atmosphere in the study room relaxed.
