"What is the prince thinking?" Xie Yao asked tentatively.
Just now, when Chu Han took the initiative to give up her rest and go to deal with military affairs, she noticed that Emperor Zhao Chu's mood was indifferent and he did not have the care and attention that a father should have for his children.
Even if this was in the royal family, Emperor Zhaochu's previous attitude towards Chu Han was not like this.
All of this happened after it was determined that Chu Han could not have an heir.
Chu Han shook his head in denial and looked forward. There was a hint of loneliness in his eyes, but he pretended to be relaxed, "I didn't think about anything, I just thought that I haven't been to the military camp for a few days, and I don't know what the chaos will be like.
.
Xie Yao caught the hint of loneliness and her heart moved slightly, "Since you have to deal with military affairs, you must cheer up! If the soldiers in the camp see you in this state, they will probably lose their morale."
Chu Han's step froze, he stopped, and looked at Xie Yao seriously, "Is this king in a bad state?"
Xie Yao nodded firmly, "It's very bad! It's so bad that he doesn't look like the King Han I knew before! It looks more like an idle prince who has been cramped, broken, and lifeless!"
She deliberately spoke in a serious tone, and looked at Chu Han deeply with her eyes for an instant.
It is undeniable that a father's influence on his children is huge, and no one can escape it, including Chu Han.
Emperor Zhaochu was indifferent to Chu Han and didn't care. She couldn't just sit idly by and ignore him.
Chu Han was silent for a moment, and when he looked at Xie Yao with raised eyebrows, there was a little more playfulness in the corner of his mouth, "I'm not as bad as you say, right?"
"If you continue in the same state just now, you will only be worse than what I said." Xie Yao responded with a smile.
"Don't worry, it won't happen anymore. I'm not as fragile as you think." Chu Han looked at Xie Yao with warm eyes, "Were you caring about me just now?"
Xie Yao's breath was stagnant when Chu Han looked at her, and she continued to move forward, "You and I are like grasshoppers tied to the same rope now. If I ignore you, I will be irresponsible to myself."
"Really? I did the right thing when I dragged you into the water." Chu Han said with a smile.
"..." Xie Yao ignored it and walked forward quickly.
Chu Han smiled, walked a few steps quickly, and chased after him.
…
A few more days passed.
There was a happy atmosphere in Prince Han's Mansion.
Ever since the emperor issued a decree to terminate the marriage contract, the atmosphere in Prince Han's palace has not only been free of any dull haze, but has become more relaxed, as if the cancellation of the engagement is a happy event worthy of joy.
Even the prince and princess would often have meals together, talking and laughing, and were very harmonious.
"My lord, your injury is almost healed. You don't need to just eat these light dishes. If you have time, you can ask the chef to make you some dishes you want to eat." Xie Yao looked at Chu Han with a look of food.
With a boring expression, he opened his mouth to propose.
Chu Han continued to eat without raising his head, "It doesn't matter. Eating these vegetarian foods these past few days makes me feel lighter. It's better to eat less meat."
Xie Yao agreed with Chu Han's words, "A light diet can indeed make people feel more comfortable, but meat is also indispensable."
Unexpectedly, Chu Han developed a good habit by not eating it for a few days.
Chu Han thought for a while and shouted: "Shan Quan, go tell the chef that you can increase the amount of meat from the next meal."
"Yes." Shan Quan accepted the order.
In the past few days, I have often seen the harmonious appearance of the prince and princess, and has gradually changed her previous thoughts. The princess has always cared about the prince in her heart, and she may have been angry with the prince for doing what she did before.
Now that the rain has passed and the sky has cleared up, the clouds have dissipated, which is pretty good.
As soon as Shan Quan left with his front foot, Wu Feng walked in with his back foot.
Wu Feng came to Chu Han's side, whispered a few words in his ear, and then stepped aside.
Xie Yao continued to eat the food calmly. The chef's skills had indeed improved recently, and such a light dish tasted pretty good.
Chu Han waved his hand towards Wu Feng, and Wu Feng retreated.
"Princess Minghui is going back to Nanling Kingdom." Chu Han looked sideways at Xie Yao and told what Wu Feng had just reported.
Xie Yao smiled lightly, "So, did you guess wrong? Her idea of staying in the capital does not seem to be very firm."
Chu Han was noncommittal, "This is just the news we have received so far. Everything must be based on the actual situation."
"The actual situation is not accurate. What if she leaves the capital, goes around the outside of the city and then comes back? Of course, I am just making a metaphor. She will not do such a superficial thing." Xie Yao analyzed lightly.
If Princess Minghui really plans to return to China, what about Ling Yu? Is diabetes incurable?
Although it is said that Ling Yu's diabetes will be stabilized soon, and he will only need to take medicine to maintain it in the future, but this will happen after a while, not now. Let Ling Yu rely on medicine to stabilize it now.
, the possibility of changes in the future will be greater.
Chu Han didn't take it to heart and continued to eat, "Don't worry about her and continue to eat. Whether she really leaves or pretends to leave, it will always show."
Xie Yao thought it right and lowered her head to continue eating.
After a while, Shan Quan came back with an unnatural expression, "I would like to inform the prince, princess, and princess Minghui to see me."
Xie Yao's hand holding the chopsticks paused, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.
"Didn't you see that the king was dining with the princess? No." Chu Han refused directly.
Shan Quan hesitated, "Princess Minghui said that she was about to return to the country and wanted to see the prince before returning. She also said that she must see the prince, otherwise she would not leave."
Chu Han suddenly put down his chopsticks, looked like he was disturbed while eating, and said, "Bring her directly here."
"Yes." Shan Quan got down immediately.
"Didn't you say you don't need to worry about her and should eat?" Xie Yao asked with a smile.
Chu Han smiled awkwardly, "Having her standing outside the palace gate will affect your appetite even more. It's okay that I don't know. Now that I know, it's better to let her come in and finish what she needs to say to save trouble."
Xie Yao originally said it casually, but nodded slightly when he heard the words.
With Princess Myung Hye’s character, if it’s something that can be explained clearly in person, it’s best to say it clearly in person.
After a while, Princess Minghui arrived.
As soon as Princess Minghui came in, she saw Chu Han and Xie Yao sitting side by side at the table, eating together, her eyes condensed and her face was deep.
"Princess Han is really a good calculator." She looked at Xie Yao, her voice slightly cold.
Xie Yao smiled lightly and raised her eyes calmly, "What does Princess Minghui mean by this?"
"Now that things have come to this, why does Princess Han still have to pretend in front of me? This time, I lost, and I admit it, and I am convinced that I lost." Princess Minghui looked directly at Xie Yao, without any retreat.
It seems that just like what she said, she has accepted the defeat, so she has no regrets.
"Princess Minghui misunderstood, this matter was my king's idea." Chu Han's voice was low, and with a sharp light in his eyes, he glanced at Princess Minghui.
