Chapter 151: Chapter 151: The Wife-Seeking Husband Is Busy, While the Star of Fortune Calmly Farms, Ending the Lineage Crisis 11

“Fu Huaichu?” the leading man pondered, then clapped his hands, “Right, right, right, that’s him, I remember clearly! The current Crown Prince, he is truly a prodigious talent!”

“Who didn’t know about the Crown Prince back then? It’s said that at the age of seven, he was able to write a treatise on statecraft that won the admiration of all the scholars in the land, and by the age of nine, he had proposed many ideas for the flooding problem in Jiangnan. At that time, he was not even ten years old, and many of his suggestions were adopted by the minister in charge of disaster relief.”

…

Su Zhiruan couldn’t help but want to laugh, she feigned taking a sip of water and saw Fu Huaichu’s eyebrows twitch heavily, after which, he too picked up his teacup.

“Brother Erniu, so the current Crown Prince is such a genius, a prodigy sent from heaven.” Su Zhiruan leaned in and asked him deliberately, “It truly is a blessing for our dynasty, don’t you think?”

“Does Ruanruan like the Crown Prince?” Fu Huaichu’s face didn’t show the slightest sign of panic, he chuckled, his eyes deep, and casually scooped Su Zhiruan up from her seat. His voice was low, “If you like someone else, I will get jealous, and then I can’t guarantee what I might do.”

As he spoke, his hands were not idle, tracing along her upper garment and hooked around her waist.

Su Zhiruan hurriedly dodged, pressing his hand, “Brother Erniu, who would speak of getting jealous so openly?”

“If I don’t say it, perhaps my Ruanruan would become enchanted by someone else’s heroic deeds.” Fu Huaichu smiled, spreading his hands, “If that’s the case, then I’d have to put in extra effort at night.”

Su Zhiruan shot him a look, but that glance had no deterrent effect at all, and even appeared very cute.

Fu Huaichu, this man, was even jealous of himself, and she didn’t know what he was thinking when he casually asked her who she preferred.

She was now starting to look forward to Fu Huaichu revealing himself as the Crown Prince.

The waiter served up the dishes, and Su Zhiruan along with Fu Huaichu stopped fooling around and began to taste the food here.

The restaurant was indeed famous for a reason, the dishes tasted very good.

The four men sitting nearby also had their food served, and they chatted and ate while drinking, their topic shifting to something else.

After finishing, Su Zhiruan paid the bill, and she and Fu Huaichu left with the waiter’s farewell.

Afterward, they strolled around, bought some daily necessities, and a few new pieces of clothing.

After a full day of enjoyment, Su Zhiruan and Fu Huaichu returned to their small courtyard laden with packages large and small.

…

Over the next five days, the two of them gradually settled back into a normal routine. During the day, Su Zhiruan would go out to tend to the crops and the herbs as usual, and although Fu Huaichu knew nothing about farming, under the tutelage of the uncles of Su Family Village and the influence of Su Zhiruan, he could also do some simple tasks. As for the meals, they were still prepared by Fu Huaichu.

If she didn’t always remember that Fu Huaichu was the Crown Prince, perhaps with such long companionship, she would have subconsciously thought that they had already been together for a long time.

It was on this day.

Su Zhiruan thought about an important plot point in the original storyline.

Today was the tenth day before Fu Huaichu left in the original plot.

That is to say, if the plot had not changed, then in ten days, the Prefect and the Prefect would find Fu Huaichu and subsequently take him back to the Capital City.

Su Zhiruan, holding onto her farming tools, stood in a concealed spot, and soon, she heard the sound of two people conversing coming from the courtyard.

One of the voices was extremely familiar—it was Fu Huaichu.

In the courtyard at that time.

“You’ve arrived?” Fu Huaichu’s voice was faint, but at this moment, his tone was not as tender as when he spoke with Su Zhiruan, but carried a faint authority, as if he was hinting to the Hidden Guard his true identity, “You’ve only found me now; I don’t know whether to call that quick or slow.”

“Your Highness, please forgive us, your subordinates have failed, and you may punish us as you see fit.” In the courtyard, a subordinate dressed in black clothing saw that Fu Huaichu seemed somewhat displeased and immediately knelt down in salute.

The courtyard was not large, and his kneeling crushed the herbs Su Zhiruan had planted.

Fu Huaichu fell silent, his eyes grew darker, “You’re crushing them.”

The subordinate lifted his bewildered gaze towards Fu Huaichu, “Ah? What did you say, Your Highness?”

“You may rise.”

Fu Huaichu’s gaze was sharp, he stepped forward, instructing his subordinate to step aside.

Then, to the subordinate’s shock, he carefully propped up the crushed herbs and restored them to their original state.

In the eyes of his subordinate, Fu Huaichu’s action was as surprising as if he had suddenly taken to fasting and chanting Buddhist scriptures.

It was just a herb, yet the resolute and decisive Crown Prince was now tending to it with such care.

It was truly incredible.

“If there’s a next time, take your punishment on your own,” Fu Huaichu said lightly.

Su Zhiruan could not make out anything from the doorway, so she moved closer to the corner to continue listening.

“Your Highness, the Lord Prefect, the Prefect, and the Minister have all arrived, at that time you were seriously injured, we have committed a capital offense, unforgivable, but we beseech you to return to the Imperial Palace soon, to reunite with the Emperor and Empress,” the subordinate knelt down in another place, “After the assassination attempt that day, His Majesty was furious, he mobilized the entire Secret Guard to annihilate the assassin group, but we did not know your whereabouts that day, the Empress fainted from grief, and the Third Prince, anxious for you, also searched for you multiple times.”

“Return to the palace?” Fu Huaichu pondered over these two words, his speed of speech slow, revealing no emotion.

“Your Highness, we can leave immediately, please follow me.” The subordinate stood up and handed over a token, “This is your Jade Pendant, if it weren’t for this pendant, perhaps we still wouldn’t be able to find you.”

“I still have matters to attend to,” Fu Huaichu said, accepting the Jade Pendant, “Come back in ten days, we will set off for the Capital City after ten days.”

“Yes.” The Hidden Guard, though uncertain why he needed ten days, felt it was good news as long as they had found the Crown Prince.

Soon, tranquility was restored in the courtyard.

Su Zhiruan had her answer.

Indeed, just like in the original plot, Fu Huaichu made the same choice about leaving the Capital City.

The same ten days later.

She left without a trace, as if she had never been there.

Meanwhile, in the small courtyard.

Fu Huaichu looked at the herbs he had just restored on the ground, his eyes deep in thought.

For the first time, he did not want to return to the Imperial Palace.

Possibly, he was ill.

The courtyard was silent except for the rustling of falling leaves from the trees.

Soon, the next season would arrive.

After Su Zhiruan returned home, she was greeted with a fragrant lunch.

“Ruanruan, go wash your hands, get ready for lunch.” Fu Huaichu smiled and served lunch.

“The food smells delicious! I could smell it from the doorway, are we having meat today?” she asked as she washed her hands, then approached Fu Huaichu.

The two tacitly changed the topic.

Fu Huaichu had not revealed his true identity, and even though Su Zhiruan had heard it, she would not show it.

Before long, Fu Huaichu would return to the Eastern Palace, resuming his position as the exalted Crown Prince.
