Jin Yuqi sat on the groom's seat with his head lowered and drank by himself. He could drink alcohol when his cold disease acted up, which helped to smooth his blood and Qi. Therefore, he had no scruples. Even if officials came to congratulate him, he would just perfunctorily drink alone. Why wasn't the marriage happy at all? He really wanted to get himself completely drunk, but unfortunately, his alcohol tolerance was shocking. The more he wanted to get drunk, the more sober he became.
"Qi 'er, don't drink so much.”Empress Nalan walked to her beloved son's side." From tomorrow onwards, you will have a wife. You must take good care of her. You must spread your branches and spread your leaves. You must continue to have royal descendants."”
"Mother, is this all you know how to say?”
"Alright, if you drink any more, you'll be drunk.”
The Crown Prince didn't stop what he was doing and pretended that he didn't hear his mother's words. His heart was uncomfortable, so he could only rely on good wine and good food.
Because there were too many people in the hall, Empress Nalan couldn't say anything more. Coincidentally, there were officials who came to congratulate the Crown Prince. She endured it and returned to the King's side.
Imperial Dragon Palace, are you tired?”The bridesmaid wasn't around, so Qing Feng leaned closer to Miss.
Qingcheng wanted to shake her head, but it was too much of a burden. She said,""It's alright."
"Niangniang, this is His Highness the Crown Prince's bedchamber. It is indeed different from other places.”Brightmoon was at ease wherever she went.
"Empress, are you hungry?" Qing Feng asked again.
"The female official said that the Crown Prince is not allowed to eat before removing the red veil. No matter how hungry I am, I have to endure it." Qingcheng said.
"Sigh, there are so many rules in the Imperial Palace.”Ming Yue muttered softly.
The bridesmaid came in and whispered into Qingcheng's ear for a while, telling her some details about the bed. Then, she bowed and left.
The Crown Prince had not arrived yet, so Qingfeng and Mingyue did not know what to say. They could only wait with the young miss. The hall fell into silence, and only the light sound of the wedding candles could be heard.
Qingcheng looked at her surroundings through the red veil. This Imperial Dragon Palace was naturally more masculine than the Blessing Palace. It was big and spacious. The bed was made of the best mahogany. It was big and sturdy, and it was carved with dragon totems. The bed was covered with a thin red blanket and a thick blanket. A long sword was hanging on one of the walls. It was probably an item to ward off evil spirits.
Qing Feng rubbed his tired legs and couldn't help but yawn.""Niangniang, it's almost time. The Crown Prince should be here soon.”
"I'm afraid that there are too many people toasting the Crown Prince, and the Crown Prince is still receiving the congratulations of the officials.”Brightmoon said.
"Empress, are you very nervous?”Qing Feng noticed the young lady's expression.
Qingcheng, who had never experienced anything before, really didn't know what would happen at night. Even though the female official had already said it, she still felt a little scared when she thought about her special physique. Perhaps what happened in the Blazing Flame Pond was just a coincidence.
"Your Highness!" Yi Qing's voice came from outside the hall.
"Empress, the Crown Prince is here." Qing Feng also became nervous.
"You can leave." Qingcheng said.
Qing Feng and Ming Yue received the order and bowed to the Crown Prince before quickly leaving.
Jin Yuqi's stalwart figure walked in unsteadily with the smell of alcohol.
Only the husband and wife were left in the hall.
The arrival of the groom made Qingcheng's heart beat wildly. She had never felt this way before. Even though she had many unwillingness, she could only accept the arrangement of the heavens when faced with the fact that she was already married.
Jin Yuqi looked at the bride in red with slightly misty eyes. She was his bride and he had handpicked her. It was funny that he would feel nervous. So, he sat down at the round mahogany table and poured himself a drink.
The two of them were silent, as if they were competing to see who would speak first.
Jin Yuqi was not drunk at all. He had the ability to stay sober after drinking a thousand glasses. The reason why he pretended to be drunk was that he did not want to accept the flattery of the officials anymore so that he could get rid of that boring scene as soon as possible. Was this scene boring?
After a few mouthfuls of water, Jin Yuqi's thoughts had already returned to a clear state. Finally, as if he had made up his mind, he walked to Qingcheng's side and picked up the weighing rod beside him to lift the red veil off her head. He glanced at her meticulously made up face, but there was no surprise on her face. Then, he sat back down, and just like that, he was in a deadlock.
Qingcheng knew that he liked beautiful women. She wasn't the type of woman he would like. Even if he was the Crown Prince, she was not afraid of him. The reason why she was nervous was all because of the threat of the wedding night.
"Did I scare you today?" Jin Yuqi suddenly spoke in a calm voice.
"No, I haven't." Qingcheng said. Was this the opening speech of their wedding night?
"Very good."
"What?"
"This tea tastes good," Jin Yuqi explained.”
Qingcheng somehow found the courage to say,""I thought you were going to praise me.”
"Hehehe." "So you like flattery too." Jin Yuqi laughed.”
"I won't hide it from the Crown Prince. Today's matter has indeed frightened me.”Qingcheng gradually relaxed. She felt that chatting with the Crown Prince wasn't a difficult task. What should he do next?
"What are you thinking about?" Jin Yuqi glanced at her.
"No, I'm not thinking about anything." Qingcheng lowered her head, and her fingers began to twist together. She thought of the " Spring Palace Painting." Oh my god, it was so embarrassing!
Unfortunately, Jin Yuqi couldn't see her true expression.
Someone had to take this step. Qingcheng mustered up her courage and stood up from the edge of the bed. Because the phoenix crown on her head was too heavy, she lost her balance after sitting for so long, and she fell back to the edge of the bed.
Almost reflexively, Jin Yuqi stood up and looked at Qingcheng's embarrassed face.
That was close! His head was almost twisted. Qingcheng held the heavy phoenix crown on her head in time.""Your Highness, can you help ChenQie take off the phoenix crown?”
"No one has ever dared to speak to me like that." Jin Yuqi did not refuse.”As he spoke, he approached Qingcheng.""Hey, what's your smell? I think I've smelled it somewhere before."
Qingcheng dodged to the side." Uh, maybe the incense today is a little special."”
Jin Yuqi took off her phoenix crown and teased,"It's not that easy to become the Crown Princess. Is this heavy enough?"
"Fortunately, I can still take it. My neck isn't broken, right?”Qingcheng was much more relaxed now. She distanced herself from him and retreated to a safe place.
Jin Yuqi smiled again. Yes, it was very comfortable to talk to her, but seeing that her reaction was not right, he could not help but ask,"Are you dodging this king?"
"I'm just not used to being close to men.”Qingcheng told him the truth. She was like this, she would say whatever came to her mind.
"Murong Qingcheng, actually, I like your name.”"What's your maiden name?" Jin Yuqi asked as he looked at her.”
"Yan 'er."
"Yan 'er? Then you must have been born in a beautiful spring!”He suddenly remembered the silk handkerchief he picked up. Wasn't there a Yan Zi embroidered on it? What a coincidence.
"Your Highness guessed it right.”Qingcheng now had a good impression of him.
"It's a pity that she's not a beauty that can topple a country.”He spoke from the bottom of his heart.
Qingcheng heard this, and her newly-formed good impression of him completely vanished.""Your Highness, why judge a book by its cover?”
"Which is more lovable, a stalk of grass or a flower?”Jin Yuqi asked back. However, deep down, he admired her courage. In this palace, no woman dared to refute him. His Crown Princess Consort was the first!
" Although fresh flowers are beautiful, they don't last long. Grass is different. Although it's just a touch of green, it can be seen everywhere. It has a strong life force and can grow anywhere. I'm afraid it's already withered." "I'd rather be a blade of grass than a flower!" Qingcheng said.”
Jin Yuqi looked at her strangely.
"Am I wrong, or does Your Highness agree with ChenQie?”Qingcheng looked at him.
"It's getting late," Jin Yuqi said with an excuse,"It's time for us to drink."”
"Alright."
After talking to her for a while, Jin Yuqi realized that his crown princess was not beautiful, but brave, assertive, and even a little smart. There were many differences between her and the women around her.
Jin Yuqi suddenly revealed a meaningful smile.""Do you know how to drink it?"
Qingcheng shook her head. This female official had only mentioned it and had never demonstrated it.
Jin Yuqi picked up an exquisite copper flagon and filled two small wine glasses with fine wine. He picked up his own glass with his right hand and slowly passed it through her right arm, then drank the wine in three mouthfuls.
Qingcheng followed suit and drank the wine. In the end, because she drank too quickly, she immediately coughed dryly and tears flowed out. She did not expect the wine to be so spicy. It was spicy and choking. It was not delicious at all.
Qingcheng put down her wine glass in a sorry state. What should he do next? She stood awkwardly.
Jin Yuqi could see her nervousness, and he could not help but feel a little curious. In the past, all the women around him were so scared that they didn't make a sound. She would immediately throw herself into his arms and undress, or she would wait for his affection with tender affection. However, she did not know how to please a man and just stood there in a daze. Was this the virtue of a lady from a noble family? Or was he pretending to be reserved?
Jin Yuqi, who had no intention of consummating the marriage with her immediately, wanted to tease her.
"Is this wine able to make people unable to talk or walk?”
"Your Highness, ChenQie is indeed not good at drinking.”Qingcheng finally came back to her senses. She saw that there was still a large pot of wine on the table, and a thought suddenly came to her mind."Your Highness, today is our wedding day. Drink a few more cups.”
Without further ado, the wine cup in front of the Crown Prince was filled to the brim.
Jin Yuqi was in a good mood and didn't refuse any wine. He drank the wine in his glass in one gulp. Then, Qingcheng immediately filled it up again and he downed it in one gulp. After a few rounds, the pot was empty.
Qingcheng was a little troubled. Why wasn't the crown prince drunk yet?
This Crown Princess was really interesting. She actually wanted to get him drunk on their wedding night. Jin Yuqi felt that it was ridiculous. He had already seen through her intentions. Alright, he would pretend to be drunk and see what she wanted.
Therefore, Jin Yuqi revealed a confused expression and began to show his drunkenness."Qingcheng, the aftertaste of this wine is so strong. This king is probably going to get drunk. Come, a moment of spring night is worth thousands of gold. Let's not waste this beautiful time!”
