The naughty and cowardly little crybaby sold himself out

As soon as it got dark, the guests dispersed and Jing Muyang came in, reeking of alcohol.

No one made a fuss in the bridal chamber, and the servants were sent away.

Jing Muyang picked up the Ruyi weighing rod and sat next to Chu Jian, slowly lifting the red veil. Her lovely little face was slightly flushed, which was particularly captivating.

"Princess." Jing Muyang excitedly leaned close to her face and kissed her, "Princess, you are so beautiful today. Even the most beautiful woman can make fish sink to the bottom of the water and the moon hide behind you."

When I first saw him, I looked up at him. The groom, wearing a red tasseled hat, had a handsome and tough face that was much softer than usual.

"You too."

"I'm beautiful too? Hahaha, okay, if the princess says I'm beautiful then I am beautiful!" Jing Muyang smiled and pulled her to the table. There was a plate of dumplings on the table. He picked one up and put it in her bowl. "You must be starving. Come, have some dumplings."

"I'm not very hungry. Jinxiang brought us the food just now." However, Chu Jian still ate some, and Jing Muyang also ate some.

"Are you full after eating just these few?"

"Yeah, I'm full." Chu Jian put down the chopsticks in his hand.

"Okay, you'll have strength after you're full!" Jing Muyang suddenly picked her up and sat her down in front of her dressing table. He quickly helped her take off the golden crown and pearl hairpins on her head, then carried her to the basin to wash her hands and face.

"I can do it myself." Chu Jian, who was held in Jing Muyang's arms, protested shyly.

"I like it." Jing Muyang kissed her and did not allow her to resist. He wiped her face carefully with an indecent smirk on his face, "Princess, you can also help me clean my face."

As he spoke, he moved his face closer.

Chu Jian looked at his eager and lovely expression, and thought, okay, she wrung out a handkerchief and started to wipe his face.

Jing Muyang stared at her without blinking, and finally couldn't help but snatch the handkerchief and threw it away, then carried her to the table, stuffed a glass of wine into her hand, and took a glass from her arm, "Princess, drink the wedding wine."

Chu Jian also stared at him, the desire in his eyes was already bursting out. On the wedding night, there was no way to escape what was going to happen next. She tilted her head back and drank it all in one gulp, but before she could completely swallow it, those lips came up to hers, taking the wine from her mouth and frantically snatching the air from her mouth.

Her clothes became looser, her spring light was revealed, and when she first saw him, she climbed on his shoulders and let him do whatever he wanted.

Jing Muyang lifted her up and held her in his arms, going deep into her before they even reached the bed. The first time they met each other always made him lose his mind, manners, and rules, and he couldn't even control himself.

The prince had three days off for his wedding. He was confined to bed the next morning after returning from the palace to visit his parents-in-law. He said that she was exhausted on her wedding night and needed to catch up on some sleep, but she didn't get out of bed until the third day. Jing Muyang kept asking for it all night long. He held her in his arms and slept all day during the day, and was sometimes not honest. It can be said that except for going to the toilet and taking a bath, she even ate in bed.

His legs were so weak that when he returned home on the third day, he was carried in the carriage. He even wanted to carry him directly into the Prime Minister's Mansion but was stopped by Chu Jian. He had to save some face for himself.

At the homecoming banquet, the prime minister and his wife were still very respectful. This time, the aunt and the concubine did not sit down, but stood aside and served the dishes.

The two of them left the Prime Minister's Mansion not long after their first meeting. If it weren't for the pressure from the emperor, they probably wouldn't have come back.

"Why didn't I see Chuxia?" Chujian murmured on the return carriage.

"I don't know, why bother with her!"

Jing Muyang held her in his arms and sat her on his lap. He buried his head in the crook of her neck, pulled open her collar and started kissing her.

First sight... This is outside! Outside!

He hid it so well before, I really didn't realize he was such a lustful person!

The days that followed seemed pretty good. Jing Muyang would handle official business during the day and come back early to be with her, just like all newlyweds, inseparable.

Chu Jian took Jin Xiang to the pharmacy every day, where they followed the old doctor to learn pharmacology. With the old doctor's guidance, they became more and more enthusiastic in learning.

Occasionally, she would come to the palace to pay her respects. Although the emperor and the imperial concubine were indifferent to her, the queen seemed to like her and would give her some small gifts every time. Jing Muyang was not busy either. He would take her out for a walk when he came back early. Except for being a little tiring at night, her life was very comfortable.

On this day, an invitation was delivered from the Princess's mansion.

"Chrysanthemum Viewing Banquet?" This seemed to be another large-scale banquet after the last palace banquet.

"Princess, the eldest princess is the prince's eldest aunt. The chrysanthemum-viewing banquet is actually her birthday party. The eldest princess loves chrysanthemums very much, and every year she invites various noble families to her birthday party in the name of chrysanthemum-viewing." Jin Xiang explained beside her.

"Why should a birthday party be named after chrysanthemum appreciation?" After all, for a birthday party, gifts need to be carefully prepared, but for a chrysanthemum appreciation party, you can just bring anything.

"The eldest princess is the eldest daughter of the previous emperor. She was named the eldest princess when she was born. She is very kind. However, the eldest princess is of noble status. If it is held in the name of a birthday banquet, some noble families are not qualified to attend. Therefore, every year, it is held in the name of chrysanthemum appreciation. Those with lower official positions and status can also participate. This gives them many opportunities to make friends, so the annual chrysanthemum appreciation banquet is very lively."

"That would be fun!"

Chu Jian thought that the last palace banquet seemed pretty good, so he must go this time to join in the fun and see if he can make some friends. Jing Muyang pesters him every day and he has run out of excuses. If he has a few friends, hehe, maybe he can stay at his friends' houses for a few days, staying at this one today and that one tomorrow.

"Well, the prince will go with him, Princess, you can take me with you too."

Jin Xiang also wanted to go and take a look. She had only heard Qingmu talk about it before. However, although the prince transferred her to the princess' side, he did not make any arrangements for her, and the princess did not make any arrangements for her either.

Ever since Chu Jian appeared, Jin Xiang became very special in the palace. The housekeeper no longer arranged anything for her, and she didn't know what to do. The princess had maids of all sizes, and she was not needed at all for service. She followed the princess to the pharmacy every day, accompanied her to learn medicine and was scolded by the old doctor, used her as a human model to identify acupuncture points, and followed her to handle medicinal materials in various ways. Compared with the maid, Jin Xiang was more like Chu Jian's classmate or good friend.

"Of course, I will definitely take you! You don't need to ask me anymore, I will take you wherever I go. Jinxiang, I promise that you will have the best food and drink with me, and see the world!" She has special feelings for Jinxiang.

On the day of the chrysanthemum viewing banquet, Chu Jian jumped and went to the Princess's Mansion early holding Jing Muyang's hand. Jin Xiang followed with a piece of top-quality warm jade, and Qing Mu followed with a basin of top-quality yellow thorns.

These were all the eldest princess' favorites, so she was naturally very happy and smiled from ear to ear.

At first glance, she had not been poisoned by the ancient female virtues, so her personality was naturally much more lively than those noble ladies. She had a certain understanding of chrysanthemums and had a sweet mouth, so she quickly captured the heart of the eldest princess.

"Mu Yang, your princess is such an interesting person. You should come to visit your aunt more often in the future." The eldest princess said with a smile.

"Yes, my nephew will bring the princess to bother my aunt often."

"Okay, okay, let's go. Most of the guests have arrived. Let's go to the yard to appreciate the chrysanthemums!" The eldest princess happily walked towards the garden with them.

There are not as many types of chrysanthemums in the garden as one might imagine at first sight. After all, in modern flower shows, all kinds of rare varieties can be cultivated, and with those produced by high technology, there are often hundreds or even thousands of varieties.

However, there are dozens of species in this garden, and each pot is carefully cared for, competing with each other in beauty, which is very spectacular.

There are many people in the garden. Men gather more in the pavilions and waterside terraces, reciting poems and talking about the past and present. Women gather more in the garden, admiring the flowers and the wind with laughter.

When everyone saw the princess coming, they bowed to her frequently. The princess signaled everyone to do as they pleased. She also told Chu Jian to go out and play by herself, and not to accompany an old lady like her.

The eldest princess was more than ten years older than the emperor, and was indeed an old lady in her early sixties. She loved watching the younger generations play and watching the emergence of talents in the country. This was also the biggest reason why she held a grand chrysanthemum viewing banquet every year.

The princes and princesses were naturally present.

All princes would be canonized as kings after the age of fifteen, but there were differences between kings. For example, the eighth prince was a first-class prince, while the other princes were second-class princes. Jing Muyang was promoted to a first-class prince because of his military merits. In terms of titles, he was actually on par with the emperor's legitimate son.

Of course, the prince is the prince, and he is above all these princes.

The princes appear to be friendly on the surface, but they actually have their own factions.

The eldest prince died young, the crown prince is the second son, born to the previous queen, the sixth and seventh princes are the crown prince's followers, the fifth prince is the third prince's follower, the eighth prince has the queen's support, the fourth prince and the ninth prince are the same person, if we have to say they are factions, then they are the emperor's followers.

We are usually quite harmonious, at least that's the surface for now.
