foxy charmer

In the spring of Jiayu's 23rd year, Emperor Jiayu bestowed a gift on Guanglu Temple's second daughter, Mei Shi, to Yu Chili, the third prince's grandfather. In June of that year, she married in the third prince's mansion in the capital.

The summer month of June, without rain for a long time, the weather is hot and dry.

Melo sat on the wedding bed, listened to the bustle and bustle outside through the red head cover, his eyes were scarlet, the breath from his nose hit the cover, and then he jumped back again, repeatedly, sultry and hot.

But this is a once-in-a-lifetime marriage for a woman, no matter how difficult it is, she is patient.

A prince's big wedding is not like a private marriage. In the bridal chamber, apart from the bride, there are also maids and maids guarding the side. Everyone is holding wine cups and carrying baskets of grain beans, waiting for the third prince to come and perform the wedding ceremony after toasting.

In an instant, the door was pushed open, and the eunuch's hoarse voice was heard: "The third prince is here—"

In an instant, the quiet bridal chamber came alive, and everyone knelt down to pay their respects. Even the phrase "Three princes are auspicious" was more festive and joyful than usual.

Melo clenched the clothes on her legs, tightened her fingers, and saw Qingbai.She was finally going to meet her husband in this life.

Through the hijab, she saw a pair of black-bottomed auspicious cloud-patterned boots. The visitor walked steadily and lightly. As soon as she stepped into the room, she said, "Excuse me."

The maid with the red silk flowers came forward holding a golden wedding scale, "Please, my lord, take off the veil."

Melo breathed a little harder, she closed her eyes, and the corners of her mouth curled up uncontrollably, showing nervousness and shyness.

After a while, the red hijab was picked up by someone, and the light became brighter. Melo looked up nervously at the man who took off his hijab.

It was a tall man in a golden and red wedding dress, with sword eyebrows and star eyes. His appearance was different from the gentleness of the "gentleman like bamboo" loved by the world, but he was resolute and majestic, and he had the beauty of manly fortitude.

Melo lowered his head, and the smile on his lips fell into reality.Her husband is not only noble, but also beautiful.

Under the dragon and phoenix flower candles, the woman sitting on the bed has a face like a peach blossom, with affectionate eyebrows and eyes. The complicated phoenix coronet and xia choi don't overwhelm her body, and her skin is as white as a pear, making her even more charming.

The girl chosen by the queen mother herself is first-class, talented and beautiful.

The third prince, Wei Chili, smiled, his cold and handsome face softened a bit.Seeing this, the nanny next to him knew that he was also satisfied with the marriage.

"Invite the prince and concubine to drink the wine."

Yu Chili nodded, sat down beside his concubine, picked up the wine cup and drank with her.

There was another person beside him, the soft bed sagged, Melo's face became hot, and he subconsciously closed his eyes before the man approached.

It was the first time she was so close to the outsider.

After uncovering their heads and drinking Heji wine, women with baskets of grain and beans came forward, laughing and throwing beans while singing congratulatory speeches.

Surrounded by a group of people laughing and laughing, Melo couldn't help being a little cautious, but the third prince next to her kept holding her hand, which made her feel a little relieved.

The third prince looked majestic and indifferent, but he also knew how to love others. It is a good thing that a husband can respect and love his wife.Mello bit her lip, biting out the marks of the thick mouth fat——she was overwhelmed with joy and nervousness.

After following the rules, finally, a group of people withdrew and left the bridal chamber to today's newlyweds.

With his hands empty, after the door closed, the man withdrew his hands and stood up.

Melo immediately raised his heart, this time... it's time to perform the ceremony of husband and wife...

The hustle and bustle faded away, and only two people in the room were breathing lightly.Mello grabbed his sleeves, breathing unsteadily.

What is she going to say?Although she was taught by her mother before she got married, she was still a virgin after all, and she was really flustered if she really wanted to take off her clothes and be honest with the man.

However, there are already several concubines in the Third Prince's mansion, he should know how to salute, and it is up to him to do so.I hope I'm not being so stupid as to bore him.

Just as he was feeling uneasy, the man in front of him spoke.

"Go down, you sleep on the soft bed outside tonight."

Merlin was taken aback, suspecting that he had heard wrong. "What did the lord say?"

"Can't understand human language?" The man's long and narrow phoenix eyes glanced over, his eyes were cold, "Go to sleep outside, do you deserve this dragon and phoenix wedding bed?"

"I... my concubine..." Merlin's lips trembled slightly, extremely at a loss.

How is she unworthy?She is the daughter-in-law of the empress dowager, the emperor as a matchmaker, and the royal matchmaker is marrying, how can she be unworthy?

For a moment, shock, bewilderment and grievance came together, she didn't understand why the husband who was smiling at her just now wanted to drive her down.

The woman sat on the edge of the bed, the blush on her face faded and turned pale.

"My lord was joking. This wedding bed was woven by the embroiderers in the palace, and it was specially used for today's wedding. How could the concubine not sleep here." She forced her smile into a stiff smile, " The couch outside is for maidservants to sleep in..."

Yuchili looked down at the person on the bed from a high position, she was wearing a wedding dress that took dozens of embroiderers a month to make, gorgeous and graceful, so fitting.There is a dazzling array of pearls and emeralds on the hair on the temples. Just breaking off a single pearl is the expenditure of an ordinary family for a month or two.

Such luxury, such dignity.

But all of this should belong to her!

The third prince sneered and took two steps back. "Alright, then I'll put my ugly words first."

"This marriage with you was just forced by the queen mother. This king has long wanted to belong. In the future, you will live in the palace. Without my order, you are not allowed to leave Haitang Pavilion for half a step. You don't need to worry about the general affairs of the family. If you If you feel aggrieved, you can go back and talk to your father, the minister of Guanglu Temple, but..." The man's thin lips curled up slightly, showing a cold smile, "If this king finds out, your life in the palace will be the same. It will be difficult."

Guanglu Temple's position is high but power is low, which is of no benefit to him in his struggle for the throne.Yu Chili originally wanted to marry the daughter of the Minister of the Household Department to be the princess temporarily, but unfortunately the Queen Mother made trouble out of it and found such a good-looking but useless wife for him.

Naturally, whether it is the daughter of a high-ranking official or a powerful minister, the only one who can become his third concubine is the treasure he hides behind his back.The rest are just pawns that need to be used temporarily.

Melo looked up at him blankly, she didn't realize such a big paragraph for a moment.

"The concubine never thought of monopolizing the prince." She was half shocked and half astonished, "If you don't like the concubine, why did you agree to this marriage?"

"The king said it, but it was because of the empress dowager's face." Yu Chili became impatient, "Go on, or you want to spread the rumor that I abandoned you and went to the study to spend the night on the wedding night."

"My lord!" the woman shouted urgently.The initial doubt faded away, and a drowning feeling of suffocation surged up, strangling everything. She held up the gem-studded dress and knelt in front of Yuchili's feet, raised her head on her back, and tears welled up in her eyes. "Since the lord married a concubine for the sake of the queen mother, please also for the sake of the queen mother, complete the ceremony of husband and wife with the concubine."

She begged, her neck was so slender and fragile that she could only cry when she was looking up, "We are newly married in the bridal chamber, and we have never had a husband and wife but sleep in separate beds. If you drive away the courtiers and concubines, won't you make them the laughing stock of the world?" Well... my lord, my concubine begs you..."

She can't let the Mei family make a joke like her.

The beauty was crying, but it only made Yu Chili more annoyed. He hated women crying the most, "I repeat, you should go to sleep outside tonight, or I should go to the study right now."

Melo stared at him blankly, and she stared at those phoenix eyes for a long time——after a long time, she didn't see any sign of softening her heart.

She didn't understand, but she could see that he hated her for taking the place of his wife.

Lifting the skirt and standing up, the heavy phoenix crown made one unable to straighten one's waist, but there were joyful sounds of gold and silver touching each other.Mello bowed his head and bowed his knees, "Yes..."

Since she has married into the palace, her natal family will definitely not be able to go back.If I disobey the prince, I am afraid that I will have no way to survive.

The golden thorn-clad phoenix was so heavy that she couldn't lift her feet, so she could only slowly move it out bit by bit, wiping the ground.

On the wedding night, she was kicked out of bed by her husband. The world is so big, how many women will be like her.

Melo lowered her eyes, her thick eyelashes trembled with the movement, and she shed fine tears.

Falling asleep in the outer room was Melo's dowry maid, Qiushi. Seeing her coming out, the other party opened her eyes in shock, "Why did the master come out alone?"

"My lord asked me to come out and sleep." She said shyly.

"Come out to sleep?" Qiu Shi was so shocked that his mind went blank, "Why did he ask you to come out to sleep? Today is a big wedding, and you are the third princess!"

"Stop talking." Melo closed her eyes, her eyelashes were so wet that she couldn't open them, and she couldn't see the room full of gold and red. "Stop talking, wait for me to change my clothes."

Qiushi took a look inside without giving up, but he couldn't see anything.She looked at the pale face of the princess, and then at the phoenix coronet, and finally she could only shut up and help her undress with tears in her eyes.

……

This was the first day Melo got married, and it was also a day she would never forget.

Early the next morning, she followed Yu Chili into the palace to pay her respects. She went to the Palace of Compassion and Ning, where the empress dowager, the emperor and many royal family members were there.

Yu Chili was still the heroic third prince outside, walking beside Melo all the way, inseparable from her.

The queen mother took the seat, and after the newlyweds paid their respects, she smiled and pulled Melo's hand, letting her sit beside her.

"Good boy, you don't have to follow your mother into the palace from now on. Whenever you want to come, just come. We are a family. If there is anything wrong with the third child, just come and tell grandma Huang, grandma will make decisions for you .”

Melo leaned against the Queen Mother, sniffing the rosewood fragrance on her body, hearing these comforting words, couldn't help but have red eyes.

Today, it is better to follow my mother in the past.

Although Melo's mother is getting old and decrepit, no matter how many concubines his father takes, he still respects and loves his first wife. , How can she be like her, not only can't get involved in common affairs, but can't even step out of the yard.

Yu Chili sensed Melo's thoughts, and cast a cold glance at her where no one else could see, as a warning.

"The lord is considerate to his concubines, everything is fine." She laughed, wondering if this smile was good-looking, and whether it could satisfy Yu Chili.

"It's fine, it's fine." The queen mother was very happy, clapping Melo's hand, very happy.

"Brother Sanhuang knows how to hurt people now."

A clear voice sounded from outside the door, Melo looked for the sound, and saw a white brocade dress.The person who came was a young man, wearing a jade belt around his waist, with warm eyebrows and eyes, very different from Yu Chili, his movements were like spring breeze blowing on his face, and he was extremely comfortable.

"My brother has seen my sister-in-law." After the man came in, he paid no attention to the queen mother and the emperor, but bowed to Melo first.

Melo stood up and returned the salute, "I have met the sixth prince."

Hearing the words, the Sixth Prince bent his eyes and smiled, and patted Yu Chili on the shoulder, "I've heard of sister-in-law's reputation for a long time, and I'm so lucky to have such a beautiful woman."

Yu Chili smiled and said, "If you are envious, you might as well get married as soon as possible, so as to save mother, queen and father from worrying."

"Don't, the number one beauty in the capital was taken away by you, I'd better wait until the next number one beauty comes out before making any plans."

The two talked and laughed, and the atmosphere was harmonious.During the welcome ceremony, the clan members expressed their friendliness and love for the new third princess, which made Melo relax a little bit. At least the relationship between the in-laws, the sister-in-law, and the sister-in-law were still harmonious, and there was no one who deliberately made things difficult for her.

Before leaving, the emperor called Yu Chili to talk in the study, and Melo sat alone in the imperial garden waiting for him.

She has been to this imperial garden many times since she was a child, but it has never been like this one. Everything she sees feels bleak.

That's right, according to the prince's attitude towards him, even if the third prince succeeds in seizing the heir, she will be able to enter the middle palace one day, but she will be an abandoned queen.

If she waits for the person whom the third prince said to be his favorite to marry into the palace, her life will only get worse and worse.

He was sighing, when he heard footsteps behind him.

When Meluofu turned his head, he was suddenly embraced from behind.

"Luoer..." the man murmured in a low voice, his voice was as clear as a lotus, "Did he bully you?"

Melo looked back and saw the person who came, the Sixth Prince Wei Chirong.

The author has something to say:

"Huh? I seem to have seen this routine before."
