Jin Yuqi said as he tried to hold Qingcheng's hand. Qingcheng dodged to the side, but he only managed to grab her wide sleeves. The more she wanted to hide, the more he wanted to conquer her. With the help of the alcohol, he reached out his hands to hug the bride from behind.
Qingcheng was already prepared for this, and she successfully dodged his embrace once again.
This time, it was Jin Yuqi's turn to be puzzled. Was he really drunk or did she have some special ability to dodge his hand?
Qingcheng grabbed his arm." Your Highness, you're drunk. Come to bed and lie down."”
"Qingcheng, why are you hiding from this king? Aren't you afraid that I'll be angry because of this?" Jin Yuqi asked in a muffled voice. It was very abnormal. He was not really angry. He was just puzzled.
Qingcheng thought he was talking drunk." ChenQie didn't hide. It's Your Highness who drank too much and his hands are unstable."”
"Then why are you still standing there?" Jin Yuqi smiled wickedly. Hurry up and help husband change!"
Husband? This title was both unfamiliar and intriguing. Qingcheng hesitated again and again, but she could only shyly undress the Crown Prince. This was the first time she had served a man like this. Her hands trembled slightly and her eyes looked elsewhere.
"You're already this king's wife, what's there to be ashamed of?”Jin Yuqi looked at her.
Qingcheng suddenly had an idea and said,""Your Highness, ChenQie has something to tell you truthfully.”
"We can talk about it tomorrow."
"No, I have to say it now."
"Alright, tell me, what's the matter?" Jin Yuqi did not make things difficult for her anymore. He approached her and smelled a strange fragrance.
"ChenQie has received a letter today and is not feeling well. It is not suitable to consummate the marriage.”Qingcheng was secretly delighted by her excellent excuse.
Jin Yuqi just smiled and did not point it out."Oh? Is that so?" Actually, the female official had already sent someone to deliver the Crown Princess Consort's birth characters and the date of the monthly letter. She was just looking for an excuse.
Qingcheng added,"Yes, the monthly letter came early."”
'Sigh, what a glib Crown Princess,' Jin Yuqi sighed in his heart.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew in from the window and blew out a few candles by the bed. Qingcheng took this opportunity to light Jin Yuqi's body a few times. Immediately, he seemed to have fallen asleep. Qingcheng had pressed his sleeping acupoint, and he would only wake up the next morning.
"I'm sorry, Your Highness." At this moment, Qingcheng felt that she was a bad woman.
She covered the Crown Prince with a blanket and quietly removed her disguise and lay beside him. She was destined to be sleepless that night.
Dawn gradually appeared outside the window.
Jin Yuqi suddenly woke up, feeling as if a lifetime had passed. How did he sleep last night? Did someone do something to him? Right, where is the Crown Princess? He glanced to the side. His Crown Princess Consort was not by his side.
He sat up.
"Your Highness, you're awake." Qingcheng was dressed in a bright red embroidered palace robe. She walked to the bed and said,""Yesterday, you suddenly fell asleep. ChenQie was shocked at first. Seeing that Your Highness 'expression was the same, she lay down with ease.”
"When did you wake up?"
"There are still many things to do today, so ChenQie should wake up early.”Qingcheng's words were reasonable, but she was actually trying to change her appearance as soon as possible, afraid that she would be discovered.
It seemed that nothing had happened between them. Jin Yuqi couldn't figure it out. How could he, who had an amazing alcohol tolerance, be so drunk that he fell asleep? He had clearly felt a sudden numbness in his body. It had happened when the candle was blown out by the wind. Could something have happened in the middle?
"Your Highness the Crown Prince, Your Highness the Crown Princess!”A palace maid shouted outside the palace door.
Seeing his puzzled expression, she knew that something was wrong, so she urged,"Your Highness, it's time to get up."
Qingcheng draped a robe over him.
Jin Yuqi saw that the bed was clean. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, he took the Green Dragon Sword from the wall and lightly touched his left middle finger. Blood immediately gushed out from his finger. He dripped the blood on the bed and covered it with a blanket.
" You…" Qingcheng looked at him in shock.
Jin Yuqi smiled at her but didn't say anything. He did this to protect her and to save himself some trouble.
"Come in!" Jin Yuqi ordered loudly.
The bridesmaid and a few palace maids entered.
"This servant pays respects to the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess!”Everyone said in unison.
"Get up." Jin Yuqi said.
Then, the palace maids went about their own business. Some helped the crown prince and crown princess change their clothes, some helped them wash up, and some made their beds.
Qingcheng saw the bridesmaid and the two palace maids walk to the bed. The bridesmaid lifted the blanket and looked at it. When she saw the red color on the bed, her face lit up with joy. She asked the two palace maids to quickly change the bedsheets into new ones.
The two of them were dressed neatly under the service of the palace maids, looking brand new. They had breakfast together in the bedchamber and then went to pay their respects to the Empress.
Feng Yi Palace.”Jin Yuqi greeted his parents.
"This daughter-in-law pays her respects to Father and Mother!" Qingcheng bowed as well. Then, a palace maid brought two cups of tea. She knelt down and invited them to the hands of the king and mother."Imperial Father, Imperial Mother, please have some tea!"
This was also one of the rules of the palace. On the day of the wedding, the Crown Princess Consort had to kneel down and offer the hot tea in her hands to her father and mother to show her respect and sincerity.
Jin Tianxiang took a sip of tea and said,"Today is just a family matter. There's no need to be so polite. All of you stand up and talk."”
"Thank you, Father and Mother!" The two of them spoke in unison and then stood up.
"Qi 'er, since you've already married, you must be harmonious with your wife in the future and make our country prosperous!”
"Your son obeys!"
Nalan Xiuhui looked at Murong Qingcheng,"Qingcheng, let me take a good look at you!"”
Qingcheng walked closer to the Empress.”
"Alright, since you've already called me mother, mother has something to say. There are many rules in the palace, and your words and actions are watched by many pairs of eyes. Mother hopes that you will be careful with your words and actions in everything and do your part as a Crown Princess.”
"Yes, I will follow your teachings!" Qingcheng nodded.
The bridesmaid walked to the Empress 'side and whispered a few words to her.
The Empress seemed to be very happy when she heard this." Hehehe, that's good. I think next year, the Jinliu Country will be able to have branches and leaves. Xi Niang, go down and receive your reward."”
Qingcheng finally understood. His Highness had actually saved her once.
"Emperor, it's still early. Can you allow ChenQie to speak to the Crown Princess Consort alone?”
"Correct." The Emperor nodded.
Nalan Xiuhui pulled Qingcheng to her courtyard to admire the flowers, then sat down in the pavilion.
"Qingcheng, there are no outsiders here. Let's talk like mother and daughter.”Empress Nalan put down her pride and spoke to Qingcheng in an easy-going manner.
"Yes, mother." Qingcheng also relaxed quite a bit.
"I've troubled you with yesterday's matter." She was referring to the late arrival of the Crown Prince.
"Mother, the matter is already in the past, there is no need to mention it.”
"You don't have to speak up for him. I, his mother, know his personality better than anyone else. Back then, he chose you because he was angry with me, his mother. Sometimes, he really angered me to death.”
"Imperial Mother, it is precisely because the Crown Prince regards you as his closest relative that he has the temper to vent on you.”
"I didn't expect you to be so calm, but your words are very appropriate. No wonder the state preceptor praised you.”Nalan Xiuhui looked at her in a new light.
"Mother is too kind." Qingcheng said humbly.
"You are the Crown Princess, so you must take good care of the entire Crown Prince's harem in the future. After you become the Empress, you must be the mother of the world. Mother can hear that you speak well and are polite. Mother is very gratified. Mother is old. The harem of Jinliu Country will depend on you sooner or later.”
"Imperial Father and Imperial Mother are in their prime, why would you say such a thing?”
"Haha, did mother's words scare you? It was fine. It was always good to exercise more.”Empress Nalan said with a smile.
"Yes, mother."
At this time, Jin Yuting floated over,"Mother, Imperial Sister-in-law, so you're here."”She bowed to the two elders.
"Ting Er, come and meet your sister-in-law."
Yu Ting said,"Mother, you don't know, but Sister Qingcheng is the one I asked you for a favor from before."”She smiled sweetly.
"Oh? So you have the same vision as your Imperial Brother!”Nalan Xiuhui said.
"Sister Qingcheng, how did my royal brother treat you yesterday?”
"Look at you, little girl, you're so unruly. Qingcheng is your royal sister-in-law, why are you calling her elder sister?”
"That's what they call me outside the palace. Besides, calling her sister is more intimate." "Sister Qingcheng, you must give birth to many royal grandchildren for the royal family!" Jin Yuting held Qingcheng's hand.”
Nalan Xiuhui didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Really."
"Mother, don't you want to hold your grandson?" Jin Yuting laughed.”
Qingcheng felt awkward and said,"Royal Sister Yu Ting is just straightforward."”
"No wonder Ting Er likes you. Look, you're speaking up for her now.”
"Sister is helping reason and not family." Jin Yuting pointed at the flowers in the courtyard.”
"There is a joyous occasion in the palace, and even the flowers are blooming especially beautifully.”Nalan Xiuhui said.
The three people in the backyard were chatting happily, but Jin Yuqi was not so relaxed.
"Qi 'er, as the Crown Prince, how do you explain what happened yesterday?" Jin Tianxiang asked his son.”
"If your son says it, it will only make things worse. It's fine if I don't say it."”
"If you don't say it, Imperial Father has something to say!”"The Crown Prince's wedding is a big event. Don't you know the consequences?" Jin Tianxiang asked. Before you do anything, you have to consider it thoroughly as the Crown Prince. In the past, his father would turn a blind eye to it. Since you've already married the Crown Princess, you should be more steady and thoughtful in your work. If the Crown Princess didn't take on the responsibility alone, Father really doesn't know how to explain this to the ancestors. If this news reaches the ears of the common people, how will they view you? Father doesn't want other countries to hear about it and laugh at us.”
"Yes, your son will remember. It was your son's fault.”
"Qi 'er, you should be glad that you married a woman with courage. Imperial Preceptor had already informed Imperial Father that the Crown Princess was deeply loved by the late emperors when she was paying her respects to her ancestors.”Thinking of how good the new imperial daughter-in-law was, the country ruler's anger gradually subsided.
