First Lady of the Crown Prince

Chapter 925: Wedding candles

Amidst a burst of cheers from the elders, Xiao Heng took Gu Jiao's hand and went to the princess's house.

Princess Xinyang renovated the Orchid Pavilion, which has the best view, as a residence for the young couple after their wedding.

 The red silk on the ground has not been broken since entering the mansion, and it has been laid all the way here. There was no such battle when Princess Xinyang and Marquis Xuanping got married.

 The main reason was that Princess Xinyang refused to let people roll the red silk in at that time.

Now for the sake of his son and daughter-in-law, the two mansions are almost connected, which is the closest they have been in twenty years.

“Be careful.” When he arrived at the door of the courtyard, Xiao Heng gently reminded Gu Jiao to cross the threshold.

Gu Jiao hummed and stepped over.

 The quality of the hijab was so good that it was completely impossible to see through it, so I had to walk carefully under Xiao Heng's reminder.

It is still early in the day, and the peonies and crabapples in the yard are competing for beauty in the sunshine, filling the garden with fragrance.

 The maids lined up on both sides saluted the two of them one by one.

Yu Yaer followed the two of them holding Gu Jiao's small medicine box. Today was a happy day for Gu Jiao and Xiao Heng. Even the Black Wind King wore a big red flower, and the small medicine box was no exception.

 It is a festive little medicine chest today!

 The little medicine box was as quiet as a chicken in Yu Ya'er's arms, but Yu Ya'er couldn't keep calm in her heart at all.

 “Wow, it’s so big…”

She couldn't tell the difference between the Marquis's Mansion and the Princess's Mansion. She just felt that they had been gone for a long time, and they hadn't arrived yet!

And this mansion is so beautiful!

"The rockery is just like the real thing..." She said what was on her mind inadvertently.

Xiao Heng smiled and said, "It's the real mountain."

“Eh?” Yuya’er was startled, “Real mountain?”

Xiao Heng nodded: "Yes, Zhenshan."

Princess Xinyang is a very particular person. She doesn’t want fake things. The stone mountains in the princess’s residence were dug and transported from elsewhere, the green hills were originally there, and even the lotus pond was filled with wild lotus flowers.

 Lanting Courtyard is located near the lotus pond.

When I passed by there just now, the breeze blew through the water, bringing with it the fragrance of lotus flowers, which was very refreshing.

After entering the wedding room, Xiao Heng took Gu Jiao's hand and sat down on the wedding bed.

This is a bed that has been pressed by a small clean air. Folk saying is that if a little boy presses it, the newlyweds can have a baby early.

 Xiao Jingkong didn’t know the meaning, but he was willing to sleep on Jiaojiao’s bed anyway!

When the maid saw the young master and young lady approaching, she wisely withdrew.

Suddenly they were the only ones left, and the room suddenly became silent.

 This is not the first day that the two have met, nor is it the first time they have been alone, but the feeling is very different from before.

 Perhaps it’s because this time we can become a real couple.

Thinking of what will happen next, Xiao Heng felt a surge of anticipation in his heart, and at the same time he was also a little nervous.

 “Your heart is beating so fast.”

 Under the hijab, Gu Jiao suddenly spoke.

Xiao Heng was slightly startled. When he looked down, he saw someone's slender jade finger touching his pulse at some point.

  As expected of a doctor... someone who can check people's pulse anytime and anywhere.

"I..." He opened his mouth, and for a moment, he didn't know how to resolve the embarrassment in front of him.

“My heartbeat is also very fast.” Gu Jiao took his fingers and put them on her white wrist.

Her skin was cold, but Xiao Heng only felt that his fingertips were hot, his heart was beating so fast, and even his breathing was almost out of rhythm.

"Miss."

Yu Yaer's voice came from outside the door.

 “What’s the matter?” Gu Jiao asked.

Yu Ya'er said: "Someone is coming to the front hall. Please hurry over."

It is broad daylight now, and Xiao Heng has to go to the banquet to entertain guests before the wedding ceremony.

 Gu Jiao: “Oh.”

Hearing her unintelligible tone of voice, Xiao Heng couldn't help but laugh.

 He said to Yu Ya'er: "I know, let them wait."

"Yes, uncle!" Yuya'er happily went to pass on the message, and she just said, in my uncle's heart, my young lady is the most important!

 “Are you tired?” Xiao Heng asked Gu Jiao.

 “I’m not tired.” Gu Jiao said.



Fengguanxiapei is very heavy for an ordinary woman, but not as heavy as her armor. She wore the armor and fought all day and night without ever feeling tired. What's so tiring about getting married?

 She still has a lot of strength!

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　ification

 Her stomach growled.

Xiao Heng smiled and said, "You haven't eaten for a long time. Are you starving? I'll ask someone to get some food."

Gu Jiao said: "Yu Ya'er can just go and get it. You can go to the front to entertain the guests."

Xiao Heng curled his lips and looked at her: "Are you sure?"

Gu Jiao nodded: "Go early and come back early."

“Yes, if you don’t go, they will make you drink as a punishment.”

 It’s Yujin’s voice.

Yu Jin walked in with a smile and carrying a food box.

Yuyaer smiled and saluted her at the door: "Aunt Yujin!"

Yu Jin smiled and patted her hand: "You should go and have something to eat, as long as I'm here."

Yu Ya'er shook her head: "That's not possible, I have to take care of the young lady!"

Yu Jin said warmly: "Don't worry, I will take care of it for you."

Yuyaer looked at Gu Jiao inside the room: "Then..."

“Listen to Aunt Yujin,” Gu Jiao said.

 “Give me the stuff.” Yu Jin said to Yu Ya’er.

 Gu Jiao had spoken, and Yu Yaer was no longer stubborn. She stuffed the small medicine box tied with red silk and big red flowers into Yu Jin's arms: "Thank you, Aunt Yu Jin!"

"Bi'er." Yu Jin called the maid aside, who took Yu Ya'er to eat.

Yu Jin walked into the new house carrying a food box and said to Xiao Heng: "Little Marquis, I am here, you go quickly."

Xiao Heng glanced at Gu Jiao and said softly, "I'll be back soon."

 Gu Jiao: "Yeah."

 Xiao Heng left the Lanting Courtyard.

 Yu Jin took out the snacks in the food box one by one, packed them on a tray, and placed them in Gu Jiao's hand.

 Gu Jiao doesn’t like food that is too sweet, so the taste of these snacks is very light.

 She took a piece of crab cake, put it in the hijab and ate it gently.

Yujin poured her another cup of scented tea.

 She took the cup and asked, "Aunt Yujin, what are you looking at?"

Yujin was shocked. You knew I was looking around through the hijab?

Yu Jin smiled sarcastically and said, "Ah, it's nothing. The princess said she would come over to see you later."

As soon as he finished speaking, Princess Xinyang walked towards this side in gorgeous clothes.

Yu Jin retreated.

Princess Xinyang sat down on the stool beside the bed. Seeing that Gu Jiao had almost eaten, she coughed lightly and handed over the bundle in her hand.

 “What?” Gu Jiao asked.

Princess Xinyang looked a little embarrassed. Fortunately, Gu Jiao was wearing a hijab and could not see her expression.

 She said in a normal tone: "See for yourself."

"Oh." Gu Jiao took the bundle and opened it. She was stunned for a moment, "You came here in such a strong sun just to show me this?"

Princess Xinyang suppressed the discomfort in her heart and said calmly: "Look first. If you don't understand anything, ask me."

“What’s wrong with this?” Gu Jiao muttered.

 Princess Xinyang curled her lips.

 Say something back?

I heard what your mother said, you two have never consummated your marriage at all, and the thing on your face is not a birthmark, but a palace-guarding sand!

Princess Xinyang would never read this kind of book, but in order for her son and daughter-in-law to have a smooth wedding, she had no choice but to risk it.

  She is a very particular person, and she despises the vulgar and rough albums on the market. She spent a lot of money to hire an artist to draw these alone, and they are very beautiful.

　　It is the type that even she would not be disgusted with after seeing it.

And the paper she used was not the rough paper on the market that cost one tael of silver per knife, but the extremely expensive water-textured paper.

 More importantly, this booklet is not a black and white picture, but a color drawing.

"You really have nothing to ask?" She said calmly, but she was almost embarrassed to death.

 But who let the two little ones be inexperienced?

If Shangguan Yan is here, they must be allowed to go there without any guidance.

 Princess Xinyang could not let go, so she achieved such a feat.

"Hmm..." Gu Jiao asked in a dignified manner, "Can you put the **** and green onions in first and then blanch them?"

Princess Xinyang frowned: "What kind of **** and onion... are you blanching?"

Gu Jiao handed the booklet to her, pointed to the page on it and said, "Here, braised pork belly."

 Princess Xinyang was startled.

 I got the wrong book!

Princess Xinyang closed her eyes in annoyance. In order not to be discovered... she pressed a cookbook on top of her head to hide it -

 She hurried back to her yard.

As soon as she arrived at the door, she saw a tall and muscular figure sitting in her room. It was Marquis Xuanping who came from the banquet.

Hou Xuanping didn't seem to notice her arrival. He was concentrating on reading a book on the table.

 When Princess Xinyang saw the paintings on the page, she staggered in fright and almost fell to the ground!

Marquis Xuanping did not move his eyes away, and still looked at the book without blinking. As he read, he turned the pages and said: "Qin Fengwan, Qin Fengwan, I really didn't expect that you actually like to watch **** movies." picture."

Princess Xinyang blushed and walked over, grabbing the book and saying, "Who let me into my house?"

Hou Xuanping gave her a strange look: "Didn't you ask me to come?"

 “When will I...”

Halfway through her words, she realized something and turned back suddenly to look at Yu Jin at the door.

Yu Jin lowered his head angrily: "Just now... Yiyi cried hard. If you have something to do, I... went to call Mr. Hou over."

She gritted her teeth and hid the booklet behind her back: "Then I didn't let you rummage through my things!"

Xuanpinghou defended: "It's just sitting on the table - no, Qin Fengwan, it's not a big deal if you like to see this, who hasn't developed a fetish yet?"

 She said coldly: "I don't like to see it!"

“You’re still reading if you don’t like it?” Marquis Xuanping looked her up and down. Her face was so red that she was bleeding. After so many years of marriage, this was the first time he saw her so embarrassed.

In a flash of lightning, he understood something, and suddenly said, "Do you want to learn?"

 Princess Xinyang looked confused: "Huh?"

Hour Xuanping took a step forward, and Princess Xinyang subconsciously took a step back. She forgot that there was a table behind her, and her buttocks suddenly hit the edge of the table.

　　Xuan Pinghou put one hand on the table behind her, and a strong aura enveloped her. She was not used to being so close to others, and her breath was momentarily held.

He looked at her steadily and smiled: "Or are you hinting to me? Qin Fengwan, you also said that you have not been plotting against me for a long time!"

 Princess Xinyang: “…?!”

 …

The wedding at the Xuanping Hou Mansion was extremely lively, with hundreds of tables set up, and the entire Hou Mansion was crowded with people. Empress Dowager Zhuang and the Emperor also came. Empress Xiao received permission and was also on her way home to visit relatives.

Colleagues from the Hanlin Academy also came over. Feng Lin, Lin Chengye, Du Ruohan, and Ning Zhiyuan took Xiao Heng to drink several drinks.

A few people were a little drunk.

Du Ruohan said drunkenly: "You kid... I just said you... are not Liu Lang... huh? I was right! Feng Lin!"

 He slapped Feng Lin on the back.

Feng Lin was already drunk, and he raised his head in a daze: "Ah? Ah, drink, drink some more!"

Du Ruohan raised his glass: "Have a drink with Mr. Marquis!"

Lin Chengye lay on the table: "Have a drink..."

Lin Chengye and Feng Lin were both married, Feng Lin became a father, and Lin Chengye’s wife was also pregnant.

Du Ruohan was studying hard and did not think about life-long matters for the time being.

They all just learned Xiao Liulang's true identity not long ago. It would be false to say they were not shocked, but after thinking about it carefully, they felt that this was reasonable.

How many talented people can there be in this world?

The world's wisdom is very high, and the young prince has nine points, and the rest is shared by all of them.

"Drink! Drink!" Ning Zhiyuan drank two more cups of Du Ruohan. Du Ruohan completely fell down. There were still a few colleagues on the table who were still lying down. Ning Zhiyuan winked at Xiao Heng, "Leave it to me. , go."

Xiao Heng bowed to Ning Zhiyuan and said, "Thank you very much."

"I don't dare to accept the courtesy of the young marquis!" Ning Zhiyuan hurriedly supported him.

 Xiao Heng patted him on the shoulder and left gratefully.

At the other table, the Gu family, who had originally discussed on the carriage to go to the wedding ceremony, were all held back by Shangguan Qing.

When it comes to martial arts, Shangguan Qing is no match for Gu Changqing, Gu Chengfeng, Xuanyuan Qi, and Lao Houye, but when it comes to drinking orders, a hundred masters combined can't even hold one of his fingers.

He single-handedly managed to knock down a table of bosses.

 Xuanyuan Qi, Lao Houye and others were lying staggering on the lawn. The whole army of their parents' family was wiped out!

Shangguan Qing sat on the stool, stepped on the corner of the stool with one foot, and casually raised his head and took a sip of wine: "Invincible is so... so lonely..."

Liao Chen, who was sitting on the treetop, snorted funny.

Shangguan Qing said: "Monk, why are you laughing?"

Liao Chen smiled and said, "Have you forgotten that I'm not drunk yet? I'm not sure whether the boy can go to the bridal chamber tonight."

“Oh, really?” Shangguan Qing raised his eyebrows and looked at the dust on the tree with a half-smile.

Liao Chen narrowed his eyes: "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Shangguan Qing smiled evilly: "Look back."

 After leaving the dust, he turned back according to his words.

Under the bright moonlight, Taoist priest Qingfeng, who was wearing a dark blue robe, stood in the wind, with a cold expression and murderous eyes.

The dusty scalp is just numb!

Taoist Master Qingfeng looked at someone on the treetop and said word by word: "You said you would wait for me in Shengdu, but you broke your promise."

 Are you waiting to be hunted down by you if you don’t break your promise?

 Liao Chen clenched his fists and looked at Shangguan Qing: "Did you get him here?"

Shangguan Qing innocently spread his hands: "I don't have the ability."

 It’s the stinky younger brother.

Even he was bribed by his stinky brother’s new gun, otherwise who would be willing to hold off the wine for that kid?

snort!

 …

 As night falls, Xiao Heng returns to his new house.

The dragon and phoenix incense candles have been lit, reflecting the beautiful candlelight in the wing covered with happy characters.

Xiao Heng used Yu Ruyi to gently lift her hijab.

 A delicate and bright face caught his eye. He had never known that she could be so captivating.

It’s not that she wasn’t beautiful in the past, it’s that tonight, wearing a phoenix crown and harem, she was extremely gorgeous.

 He looked at her and couldn't look away.

Gu Jiao also stared at him blankly. He always wore cold-colored clothes. She didn't know that he could be so handsome in a bright red wedding dress.

 He smiled softly: "Madam, it's time to drink Hexin wine."

Gu Jiao was dazzled by his smile.

 Before you drink alcohol, you are already drunk.

Xiao Heng poured the wine, thought of something, and asked her, "Will you get drunk again?"

 He remembered that this girl could never drink more than one glass.

 “No.” Gu Jiao said.

 There was hangover medicine in the small medicine cabinet, and she had just taken it.

 The two of them drank the Hexin wine.

The sound of singing and singing came from the stage in the front yard, and from time to time, accompanied by the fierce cheers of the guests, they came through the distant sky, making the already quiet yard seem even more peaceful.

Neither of them said a word, and made no next move. They just sat on the bed obediently.

Xiao Heng pressed her beating heart and asked her, "What are you thinking about?"

Gu Jiao said honestly: "I'm counting."

Xiao Heng looked at her puzzled: "Why do you need to count?"

Gu Jiao crossed her fingers: "The book says that women should be reserved, so I will count to a hundred before I can eat you."

 Xiao Heng's eyes darkened and his breathing almost stagnated.

 “Then how many have you counted now?” he asked hoarsely.

Gu Jiao counted out and said: "Fifty-nine, sixty, sixty-one..."

can not wait anymore.

The remaining thirty-nine will kill him.

“Jiaojiao, don’t count to a hundred, the book is a lie.”

 He raised his slender, jade-like hand, gently clasped the back of her head, lowered his head, and covered her soft lips.

 The moonlight is gentle, and the night is endlessly thickened.

The bright red curtain was slowly lowered, and the clothes were scattered on the ground in a mess, carrying an alluring fragrance.

On the branches outside the window, Xiaojiu covered her head with her broad wings.

 Shy.
