The next day, when Liuli woke up, it was already scorching sun, and it was noon.

A split headache, a throat is like smoke, the price of a hangover.

Qingqing was outside the tent early in the morning, and when she heard the movement of her getting up, she opened the curtain to serve her to get up and wash.

"I was with Mr. Leng Qing all night last night?" She clearly remembered that the man who carried her to bed was Chu Han, but this place was clearly not Chu Han's room or the princess's dormitory. She didn't forget that in the banquet lobby, in order to anger Chu Han, she hugged Leng Qing and said she wanted him.

Qingqing nodded, "Young Master Leng Qing went out early in the morning. He found someone to send a slave to serve the princess to get up and change clothes."

"Then he..." He looked down at the nightgown, which was slightly messy but obviously had not been "invaded", and just smiled bitterly. With his disgust of coldness towards her, how could he invade her at risk? I'm afraid it would be too late to hide from her.

"Then..." After thinking about it, I couldn't help asking: "What are Mr. Chu doing?"

"It is said that Mr. Chu stood outside Nanyuan Gate for a night last night and left this morning..."

"He stood outside the door all night last night?" His heart trembled for a moment, and even breathing seemed difficult. What does this mean when he did?

Qingqing nodded and sent a hot towel, "Wash your face first, princess."

Liuli passively took the hot towel to wash her face, and her movements were stiff. Chu Han stood here overnight last night, not far outside the door, but she didn't realize anything. The man pushed her to another man, but stayed outside her door for the night. What was he thinking?

She suddenly felt so tired, from body to mind. The two of them always suspicious and wandered around and entangled. Such days are so heartbreaking.

After casually eating some breakfast, she returned to the princess's dormitory. The desk in the dormitory that was arranged to facilitate Chu Han's work was gone. Looking at the empty place, she was stunned for a while and then headed towards Chu Yuan.

Chu Han was working hard, and when he saw Liuli, he was surprised. Liuli glanced at the account book that had not changed for thousands of years on the table, and his eyes fell on his face again. He just didn't see him for a night, but it seemed as if it had been so long a century. When he saw him again at this moment, he suddenly felt a bitter feeling that seemed like a lifetime ago.

"I'll help you with the account." Liuli asked someone to bring a chair, then took off all the palace maids, skillfully opened the account book, picked up the brush and reviewed it.

Chu Han didn't say anything else, carefully reviewed the documents and letters sent from various places, occasionally picked up a pen to sign the name on the documents and stamped the seal.

"The business of the grain farm this month has been reduced a lot compared to last month. Is it because of the seasons?" She is not familiar with this era, but there are differences between "off-season" and "peak season" in business, and any business is no exception.

"Seasonality is only one reason." Chu Han approached slightly and checked the settlement of the grain farm this month with her, pondering: "Recently, Yueli Kingdom and Riyan Kingdom have been affected by the gust. Most of the harvests have been bleak. Many farmers have received only enough rice and grain for family food and clothing, and there is no excess rice and grain for sale. Therefore, the amount of rice and grain that the grain farm can purchase is limited, and the harvest is not good..."

"Did the Chu family still own its own land and not relying solely on acquisition and reselling to earn the intermediate price difference?"

"Of course there is farmland. When the business grows bigger, you can't always make a living by reselling."

Liuli glanced at him. Although he said it lightly, she could imagine that the land he owned would never be less. This young master Chu had much greater power and even strength than she could imagine... She couldn't help but smile and felt helpless.

"What's wrong?" Chu Han asked, looking at the bitter smile on her lips.

Liuli shook her head, "It's nothing, I just think... you are much better than I thought."

Chu Han just moved his lips, but didn't say anything. Liuli stopped talking and just did things seriously. I don't know how long it took, Chu Han rubbed his forehead, and just such an inadvertent little move made Liuli feel silently hurt. She said, "If you are tired, why don't you take a break first."

If you haven't slept all night and start doing things again after returning to your room, the person who is hit hard will not be able to bear it.

Chu Han pondered for a moment, finally nodded, got up and walked down on the bench beside him. Not long after, his breathing became calm and even.

Liuli looked at him quietly. His face was still handsome, but there was a little bit of clarity between his eyebrows and a little more gloomy. In just a few days, he turned back to the cold, silent and unhappy Young Master Chu. Looking at him like this, a little sadness and pity slowly rose in his heart.

She had already known from Qingqing that choosing a husband was the meaning of King Li, and also knew that King Li had instructed him to complete this matter more than once, but he had been dragging it... If she was born Xu Shiliuli and the Seventh Princess of Yueli Kingdom, maybe she could forgive him and even accept all this with joy, but she was not. In her world, the concept of monogamy has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. She never thought that one day she would have several husbands, and she never thought that he would take the initiative to push her into the arms of other men as she liked.

In fact, putting aside all this, he is indeed a very good husband. No matter what he has behind him or his seriousness towards Xu Shiliuli, at least in everything he has done, there has never been anything that is sorry for Liuli.

But what he deserves is Liuli, and what he is sorry is Ling Xi. Maybe she doesn't know what Liuli wants in the past, but she knows very well what she wants. However, maybe he can't give her what she wants in his life.

Why do you still have to hang up even though he knows that he can't give it to him? He makes things difficult for him, and why do you have to do this? He has his own difficulties. She is a waste princess who is ignorant and only knows how to eat, drink and have fun all day long.

His eyes fell on the documents on the table. The signature ink traces he had fallen down had not been dry yet. The handwriting on it was vigorous and powerful, just like his people. He didn't like to talk and didn't have much tenderness and sweetness. But as long as he was there, she would feel at ease and at ease.

The eyes became soft and unconsciously. They could not be lovers who had been together for life, at least, they were still husband and wife. Maybe he had his way to go, and she also had the life she wanted to live, so why bother too much?

Thinking of this, the depression and bitterness of two days gradually dissipated a lot. Liuli calmed down and continued to work.

Chu Han only slept for an hour and woke up slowly. When he woke up, Liuli had already reviewed all the books he had to review, and even helped him read all the documents sent yesterday. Seeing him wake up, she pushed the documents divided into categories and said, "I have seen these, but I haven't found any problems, I just signed and sealed one by one." He pointed to the other books: "I don't understand these problems, and you need to read them yourself before you can make a decision."

Chu Han sat down beside her, opened the first book from the document she said "I can't understand" and asked, "Where do you don't understand?"

Liuli knew that he intended to answer her, so she pointed to a few lines of text and said, "It's not that I don't understand, but I don't know how to solve it. Look, here it is said that the fleet encountered pirates attacks in the Liuhai area of ​​Yueli and Xingchen. Although there were no major casualties, two crew members who fell into the sea were from the Riyan Kingdom. The people from the Riyan Kingdom had an accident in the sea between Yueli and Xingchen. Which country should I report this matter to?"

"Although he is from the Riyan Kingdom, the accident point is between Xingchen and Yueli. In the area mentioned in the document, the area is Yueli's border, so it should be submitted to Yueli's nearest local officials for processing." He started writing a paragraph of text in the blank of the document and then pushed it to Liuli. "The crew member has been missing in the sea for more than three days and can be reported and included in the death list. In addition to reporting to the officials, he also needs to prepare the comfort work of the crew's family, and the pension is necessary."

"How much pension should you give?"

"General crew members are 100 taels of silver, second-class helmsmans are 150 taels of silver, and first-level managers are 250 taels of silver."

Liuli felt cold in her heart, "A life is only worth one hundred taels."

Chu Han glanced at her with a soft look: "Life is priceless, but there must be a standard for everything. These are clearly stated in the life and death contract when they joined the Chu family. After all, the shipping fair encountered many risks, and the biggest threat is the pirates in various seas. No one wants these accidents to happen, but accidents are always inevitable."

Liuli didn't understand these principles, but she felt deeply saddened for those who had to face danger or even lose their lives for the sake of her livelihood. She was lucky, and she was the Seventh Princess of Yueli Country. She had whatever she wanted and never had to worry about her livelihood. After thinking about it, she suddenly felt that she had been too willful and erratic in the past two days. She was simply born in blessings and didn't know how to complain without any illness. She did not do anything.

Her face softened a little, she smiled at Chu Han and suddenly said, "I'm sorry."

Chu Han was slightly stunned and met her unscheming eyes. For some reason, a trace of sadness appeared in her heart. "Li'er..."

"I'm sorry, I've been willful these two days." She shook his slightly chilled hand and said sincerely: "I have too high demands on you. No matter what you do, you just follow your own thoughts. It's unreasonable. I'm sorry, I'll try my best to restrain my temper in the future. Do you forgive me?"

He didn't speak.

She was apologizing to him, but at this moment he would rather she be angry with him and still hate him for pushing her to another man.

"Are you still angry with me?" The little hand holding his big palm tightened slightly, and she said carefully: "I know you have your own difficulties. In the future, I will try to think about things from your perspective. We... are still the same as before, okay?"

Chu Han shook her hand back and wanted to say anything, but in the end he couldn't say anything. At this moment, he seemed to smell the smell of parting, but wasn't all this what he wanted? At least, she wouldn't be angry and hate him anymore, and would be embarrassed against him everywhere...
