First Lady of the Crown Prince

Chapter 954 The wedding night (second update)

Gu Changqing has a very large lineup of relatives. In addition to the majestic Gu Jiajun, there are also three younger brothers - Gu Chengfeng, Gu Chenglin, Gu Yan, plus Gu Xiaoshun, who is also regarded as his younger brother.

The four of them were all wearing the same sapphire blue brocade clothes, with upright postures and handsome faces. They were the most beautiful groomsmen in the ancient version.

  The reason why Xiao Heng's best man did not receive this honor is mainly because the small clearance is not enough for one person to form a group. That is a solo.

The last time the capital was so lively was when the young marquis of Zhaodu married the daughter of Duke An Guo. The battle was comparable to a military parade. Naturally, it was inevitable that the young master of the Gu family army would marry a wife.

The groomsmen are so good-looking that they attract a lot of attention, but the one that makes people want to scream the most is the groom who attracts all the attention.

Since Gu Changqing can remember, he has either been training in the military camp or fighting on the battlefield. Silver armor is the clothes he wears most, and it is as cold as his nickname of Yama.

Today, he put on the groom's wedding clothes that he wore only once in his life, and instantly became as stunning as a peach and plum.

After Mr. Shofu got married, the hearts of the girls were broken again. Such a stunning man finally belonged to someone else.

　　Yuan family.

 In Yuan Baolin's boudoir, Mrs. Yuan burst into tears.

Her daughter was frail since she was a child and had to be raised in a Taoist temple. With great difficulty, she took off her Taoist robe and put on a woman's wedding dress.

Yuan Baolin wore a phoenix crown and Xiapei. She lost the coolness of the female Taoist priest, and her lips were red and bright.

Yuan Baolin comforted her mother: "Mom, don't cry. Zuo is just marrying someone, and it's not like she will never come back again."

Mrs. Yuan patted her daughter's hand, glared at her and choked: "Of course you can't come back casually! When you get married, you are a bride, and you must abide by the rules in your husband's family!"

Yuan Baolin curled her lips. It's not like they were a real couple. The agreement between her and Gu Changqing was clearly written. She could return to her parents' home at any time, and Gu Changqing was not allowed to stop her.

As for setting the rules, if Gu Changqing facilitates her, she will not make it difficult for him, and she can still do her best on the surface.

Yuan Baolin sighed helplessly: "I know, I know, you have nagged me eight hundred times, and I can memorize it all."

Mrs. Yuan wiped her tears with a handkerchief: "That's not because you grew up in a Taoist temple. I'm worried that you don't understand secular rules."

Yuan Baolin said: "I understand, I understand."

It’s all written in the storybook, and she’s learning it!

"Sister..." Yuan Tong also cried and came over, hugged her sister and said, "I can't bear to leave you..."

 “Okay, okay.” Yuan Baolin comforted her mother and sister at the same time.

　　The Shiquan woman on the side looked at it in a daze. She had seen the bride hug her mother and cry, but she had never seen the bride calmly comfort the whole family.

When the auspicious time came, Yuan Baolin's brother carried her out of the boudoir.

Yuan Tong was trotting behind and crying: "Sister...sister..."

Gu Changqing received the bride and said goodbye to his father-in-law and mother-in-law: "Father, mother, please don't worry, I will take good care of Pauline."

Mrs. Yuan burst into tears.

Father Yuan's eyes were red, and he patted Gu Changqing's shoulder heavily: "Remember what you said, go ahead, Paulin is left to you."

As soon as Gu Changqing left, Father Yuan could no longer hold back. He turned around, covered his face with a big hand, and cried loudly: "Ah... Paulin is married..."

Mrs. Yuan, who was crying sadly, trembled and looked at her man as if she had seen a ghost.

—Leng Buding met someone who could cry more than herself. She was so shocked that she couldn't even cry.

The team welcoming the bride arrived at the Ding'an Marquis Mansion in a lively manner.

Gu Changqing got off his horse, came to the sedan chair, and stretched out his long-knuckled hands.

Yuan Baolin originally planned to walk down by herself, but suddenly she caught a glimpse of the stretched out hand from under her hijab.

 She was stunned for a moment.

 She understands the whole point of putting on a show, and just holding hands should be okay.

 She gently placed her weak, boneless hand on Gu Changqing's palm.

Gu Changqing lacked experience in getting along with women. The only woman he was close to when he grew up was his younger sister. His younger sister's hands had calluses and wounds from work and war, but Yuan Baolin's hands were a little different.

 This is a delicate hand.

 He was worried that he might break her hand accidentally.

 He took the bride down from the sedan chair.

Po Xi arrived late with the red silk, and something went wrong. Fortunately, the groom had already taken the bride off the sedan, otherwise it would have been embarrassing.

 She smiled and handed the red silk into the hands of the newlyweds.

 The two of them grabbed the red silk and walked towards the house.

 The bride needs to cross the saddle and step on the tiles.

The saddle went very smoothly, but when it came time to step on the tiles, Gu Xiaoshun on the side took a breath, patted Gu Yan and whispered: "That's my cement tile! Who took the wrong one!"

"What cement tiles?" Gu Yan took the thinnest piece of tile just to crush it.

Gu Xiaoshun grabbed his head in despair: "It's over, it's over. My sister taught me how to make these tiles. I used them to mend my wife's roof...I can't even step on them!"

In the custom of Zhao State, if the bride cannot break the tiles under her feet, it will be regarded as an omen of bad luck and unchastity.

Yuan Baolin didn't know anything about it. She raised one foot and stepped on it.

 Gu Changqing glanced at the tile and noticed something was wrong at a glance. Almost as soon as Yuan Baolin's feet fell, he put his fingers together and used an internal force to shatter the cement tiles under her feet.

Yuan Baolin looked at the tiles that she had trampled into powder, and said in shock, "Huh? Am I so powerful?"

Gu Xiaoshun gave a thumbs up: "Sister-in-law... your legs are so strong..."

Gu Changqing calmly led Yuan Baolin into the lobby.

Marquis Gu and Mrs. Yao were sitting on a high chair. Mr. Gu was smiling so hard that he could not see his eyes. Mrs. Yao was also very happy.

 “Worship the heaven and the earth.”

 “Two bows to the high hall!”

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　)

Yuan Baolin and Gu Changqing didn't keep a good distance, and they worshiped very sincerely, so their heads suddenly hit each other.

 “Ouch!” Yuan Baolin let out a cry of pain.

Gu Changqing's expression froze and he whispered: "I'm sorry."

 The guests who were watching laughed together.

The bride was sent into the bridal chamber first. She sat on the wedding bed that Gu Xiaobao had rolled over. Gu Changqing glanced at her and said to her: "I'm going to entertain the guests outside. If you're hungry, just eat something first."

Yuan Baolin said: "Then you take off the hijab for me first."

The two of them had a fake marriage, and it didn’t matter who had the hijab on. But since Yuan Baolin made this request, Gu Changqing still picked up Yu Ruyi on the table and lifted her hijab.

 What came into view was a strange yet familiar face.

 Familiar because he knows her after all, strange because she has never seen her like this before.

The daughter's soft and delicate appearance is as bright as a bright cloud, which is perfectly set off by her outfit.

Yuan Baolin also saw Gu Changqing so happy for the first time: "You look good in wedding clothes."

The most outstanding person in Zhaodu is not only the young marquis, but also the young master of the Gu family.

 “You too.” Gu Changqing responded politely.

Yuan Baolin smiled, thought of something, looked at him and asked: "Tonight..."

"I will sleep on the floor tonight." After Gu Changqing finished speaking, he saw her shocked face and thought she thought this was inappropriate. He explained, "If I am not here on the wedding night, some people will say that I despise you."

Yuan Baolin smiled coquettishly: "That's not what I meant. I was asking if I could go to bed first without waiting for you?"

Gu Changqing: “…”

 “Okay,” he said.

Yuan Baolin asked again: "Then, will anyone come to the wedding? Do I need to prepare?"

Gu Changqing said calmly: "No."

 At present, no one in the whole capital dares to come to his bridal chamber.

Xiao Heng and Shangguan Qing are brave, but the former is not so evil and the latter is not in Zhao country.

Yuan Baolin was relieved: "Go and do your work, don't worry about me!"

 “Okay.” Gu Changqing turned around and left the room.

He ordered the secret guards to throw out all those who came to make trouble in the bridal chamber.

Not long after, Gu Xiaobao came over.

Yuan Baolin looked at the sudden appearance of Xiao Douding and asked curiously: "Who are you?"

"Xiaobao." Gu Xiaobao introduced himself, "Are you my sister-in-law?"

Yuan Baolin remembered that Gu Changqing had a little brother named Xiaobao.

She smiled and said, "Yes, I am your sister-in-law."

“Oh, then this is for you.” Gu Xiaobao handed her the mini snack box in his hand.

 Snack boxes look the same as large food boxes. They have several layers of drawers and a handle. They are like play-house toys for children.

 This family is really caring and takes great care of their children.

Yuan Baolin took it and opened it, and a delicious aroma hit her nostrils. She took it out layer by layer, only to find that it was all food.

 There are meats, vegetables, and steamed buns and snacks, all of which are small and very delicate.

 “Did your elder brother ask you to give it to you?” Yuan Baolin asked.

 “Yeah.” Gu Xiaobao nodded.

 Gu Xiaobao expressed dissatisfaction that he could not go to pick up the bride. In order to make him feel involved, Gu Changqing gave him this important task.

But Gu Changqing never expected that he would be so particular about asking the kitchen to make his own small dishes and deliver them in his own special snack box.

 —As expected of a child who grew up with Jingkong.

Yuan Baolin thought Gu Xiaobao was so funny and couldn't help pinching his face.

Gu Xiaobao: Okay, you are the eldest sister-in-law. My eldest brother asked me to be nicer to you and let you pinch me.

Uncle and sister-in-law shared the delicious food sent by Gu Xiaobao.

 At night, Gu Changqing, who had been given several rounds of drinks by the guests, returned to his new house.

Gu Xiaobao has left, and Yuan Baolin's maids are standing outside.

He stepped into the house, and Yuan Baolin really fell asleep. The thin red tent hung down, reflecting the light of dragon and phoenix incense candles, which made people's eyes full of joy.

Her graceful figure is looming in the curtain, with the unique beauty of a girl, exuding a hint of spring charm inadvertently.

Gu Changqing looked away, went to the closet and took out a mattress and spread it on the floor. He took another quilt, then he put on his clothes and lay down.

 “Gu Changqing.”

 Inside the curtain, Yuan Baolin suddenly spoke.

Gu Changqing looked at the curtain subconsciously, and quickly looked away like a gentleman: "Are you not asleep yet?"

Yuan Baolin said: "I'm a bit confused about the bed and can't sleep."

Gu Changqing paused: "Then you..."

 “Mother Zhang!”

 Suddenly the maid's voice came from outside the door.

 “I’m here to deliver the sobering soup to the Crown Prince!”

Mammy Zhang is Mrs. Gu’s confidant. If she finds out that Gu Changqing is sleeping on the floor, things will not be good.

Yuan Baolin sat up, opened the curtain, and said to Gu Changqing: "Come up quickly!"

If someone else came, Gu Changqing could block it, but it happened to be someone sent by his grandmother. If he blocked Granny Zhang, he would have to come over by himself because of his grandmother's temper.

Gu Changqing frowned, neatly rolled up the bedclothes and stuffed them into the cabinet.

Yuan Baolin jumped out of bed and raised her hand to unbuckle his belt.

 Gu Changqing's eyes trembled: "What are you doing?"

Yuan Baolin said: "Today is the wedding night, isn't it strange that you are so well-dressed?"

 “I’ll do it myself.” Gu Changqing said.

Yuan Baolin gestured to the window with her eyes, where the two people's shadows were reflected.

“Your Majesty,” Grandma Zhang called with a smile outside the door.

Gu Changqing let go and let Yuan Baolin take off his belt.

The two of them were so close that he could clearly feel her breath and the faint feminine fragrance on her body.

Yuan Baolin spread out his clothes and took off his hair crown, and then said with satisfaction: "Okay, his clothes are a bit messy now."

Gu Changqing straightened his expression, walked over and opened the door for Grandma Zhang: "Mammy, it's so late, why are you here?"

nanny Zhang was delighted when she saw his disheveled appearance. The prince didn't even touch a maid in the house. What else did the old lady say to worry about the prince not being good at that?

 Look at the anxious look on this monkey, the old lady must be worrying too much!

She glanced into the room again. Yuan Baolin had already laid back under the curtain, with only one crystal-white jade foot exposed.

Oh, is the prince so fierce?

 Just after returning to the room, he found someone—

 Mother Zhang felt very happy: “Drink the hangover soup while it’s hot!”

Gu Changqing took it, drank it in one gulp, and said to Grandma Zhang: "Then I'll go to bed first. Could you please tell Grandma to let her rest early? I'll go and pay her respects tomorrow morning."

 “Okay, okay, okay!”

Mama Zhang walked away with an empty bowl and a smile on her face.

 What is the old lady worried about? She was worried that the prince would not be able to do it, so she had to bring him a bowl of that soup. According to her, the prince's wife might not be able to get up tomorrow morning!

Gu Changqing took a long breath, took a step back, closed the door, and bolted the door.

Yuan Baolin quickly retracted her foot.

That foot was for Aunt Zhang to see, not for Gu Changqing.

However, Gu Changqing was a martial arts practitioner, could turn around quickly, and had good eyesight, so he still saw it all at once.

 The nails are moist, crystal clear as jade, small and exquisite, making people want to hold it in the palm of their hands and play with it.

 This is not something he can see.

He quickly looked elsewhere, calmed down, walked to the cabinet, opened the cabinet door and took out the bedding again.

 He put on his clothes again and lay down.

 But for some reason, he suddenly felt a little hot in his heart.
