Chapter 45 – Royal Mentality
After eating breakfast, Fu Wu Tian went to the study room with Fu lao wang ye.
Without anything to do, An Zi Ran decided to have the two maids from that morning accompany him while he familiarized himself with the palace. He would be living there for the time being, so even if he were to leave in the future, he still couldn't let people make a joke out of him. Although he was married, he was still the head of the An family. If people treated him lightly, it would also affect the An family.

The two maids were arranged by Fu Wu Tian. When they heard he wanted to look around the palace, they followed behind him with alertness.
Although Fu Wu Tian's servants weren't bad, An Zi Ran was still used to having Chun Lan and Qiu Lan by his side. He wasn't comfortable with strangers getting too close to him. He thought of setting aside a time to talk to Fu Wu Tian about it, and see if he could have them come into the palace.
Thinking while he walked, he soon came upon the kitchen.
An Zi Ran glanced at it and was about to turn around and leave, but the voices of the gathered servants floated over to him. He only heard fragments of dialogue, but the contents of the conversation were all about him and Fu Wu Tian.
"I have never seen such a gentle side of wang ye, he really pampers wang fei."
"You guys don't know, but yesterday night when I was carrying some wine jugs through the corridor I just so happened to hear a sound. It was the wang fei's voice crying out in ecstasy. It made me embarrassed to death just to listen."
Understanding the implications, a few people snickered behind their sleeves.
"Hmph, the way I see it, there is nothing remarkable about wang ye favoring wang fei."
The maid standing at the very back sneered.
A few of the maids looked at each other. "Xi Mei, you can't talk nonsense."
Xi Mei smiled smugly, "Who told you that I was talking nonsense? I spoke the truth. Wang fei is favored by wang ye, but he is still a man after all. In the future, wang ye will still have to take a concubine to continue the family line. Furthermore, among the attending wedding guests yesterday, did you see the princes of the emperor?"
Her words were reasonable and several people found themselves at lost for words.
Although the emperor agreed to let Fu Wu Tian take a man as his wang fei, and even admitted An Zi Ran's name into the royal registry, it did not mean that the emperor really accepted his nephew's wife. So among the guest last night, the number of royal family members that came to participate could be counted on one hand. The emperor's princes were prime examples. They only sent some people to deliver the wedding presents and say a few celebratory words. Not even their shadows could be seen. This was enough to mark their attitude towards the whole affair.
The two maids' faces were tight with anxiety. They did not expect to hear people gossiping about wang fei and wang ye, especially those words of Xi Mei's. They were unable to grasp wang fei's emotions. Was he angry? They could only look at his back, on one hand hoping that he would leave quickly, and on the other hand hoping that those people would stop talking.
"Wang fei?"
The maid hesitated a moment and then called out to him.
Her voice alerted those gossipers. One by one they turned their heads to look. When they saw that the person standing in the hallway was the topic of conversation they just talked about their faces all turned white.
