The Wife is First

Jing Shao heard the breathing of the person next to him become longer, and he slowly leaned forward and gently kissed him on the forehead. He wanted to hold him in his arms, but was afraid of waking him up, so he had to give up. Lying in bed, I was thinking about how I could suddenly be reborn to the age of nineteen. At that time, I jumped off a cliff with Jun Qing in my arms, and then everything went dark... After thinking about it for a long time, I couldn't think of a reason, so I started to think about what happened in Hongzheng's thirteenth year. What.

In the winter of the twelfth year of Hongzheng's reign, he returned victoriously from driving out the Huns. Longyan was delighted, and made an exception by making him the king even though his two elder brothers had not been enfeoffed. For a time, there was a lot of discussion in the court, everyone said that the emperor intended to make his third prince the crown prince. Unexpectedly, just after the New Year, the stepmother told him that his ancestors had never made him a king before getting married, so she quickly arranged a marriage for him, the second son of the Marquis of Beiwei family.

Jing Shao and the second prince were both sons of Empress Yuan, and they were absolutely orthodox legitimate sons. However, the step-empress asked him to marry a male wife, which would ruin his future. Naturally, he refused, and immediately turned over the table and walked away, waiting to report to his father. Empress Mingji had ulterior motives, but in the morning of the next day, her father made a decree in public that the marriage would be completed on the eighth day of March, without giving him any chance to resist.

From then on, King Cheng went from being a hot quasi-heir to an abandoned son whose father did not care for his mother.

Smiling to himself in the darkness, the "abandoned piece" that was swallowed suddenly returned to the chessboard and became a hidden killer move. It was hard to say who would win and who would lose.

The next day, although I could wait until the next court to visit the emperor and empress, I still had a series of etiquette to do, and I couldn't sleep for long.

"Your Majesty, Princess, it's time to get up." Zhixi knocked on the door of the inner room.

"Wait outside the door," Mu Hanzhang, who was sleeping lightly, woke up immediately. He ordered outside and nudged Jing Shao, "Your Majesty, wake up."

"Huh?" Jing Shao opened his eyes in a daze and saw a familiar face, the handsome face he saw every day when he woke up in the prison, "What's wrong?"

"It's time to get up, I... I need to go down and put on my underwear first." Mu Hanzhang pursed his lips. Last night, the man forced him to take medicine and had to sleep outside, which made him unable to go down and get his underwear.

"..." Jing Shao was stunned for a moment before he realized that this was not a prison, but his wedding room. "Oh, I was negligent." When he realized that his newlywed wife was asking for pants, Jing Shao immediately sat up. , reached for the new underwear on the hanger and handed it over in a flattering manner.

Mu Hanzhang took the pants, but found that the man was still looking at him, so he had to put them on under the quilt.

Jing Shao, who didn't get any praise and was treated as a slut, didn't know what the "praise-seeking" expression was because he had been in the war for many years, so he could only touch his nose in embarrassment.

"Congratulations to the prince, princess, and slave Duofu for meeting the princess." The person who entered the room first was a fat eunuch with a round face, Duofu, who was also the eunuch in charge of the palace. He knelt down and saluted Mu Hanzhang with a smile. Mu Hanzhang accepted the gift and rewarded him with the purse he had prepared earlier: "Please get me, my father-in-law." Duofu was the old eunuch who had taken care of Jing Shao since he was a child, so Mu Hanzhang couldn't be too generous.

Duofu answered with a smile, followed by Zhixi, the eldest maid in the room, and Mengxi and Miaoxi, who were serving Jingshao personally. Mu Hanzhang was not polite this time. He received all the gifts one by one and was rewarded with gold and naked children.

Jing Shao looked at it and nodded secretly, thinking that Jun Qing grew up in a prince's family. Although he was a concubine, his methods of dealing with his servants were not bad at all, so he didn't plan to say anything more.

Mu Hanzhang's two dowry maids also came to salute Jing Shao. Lan Xuan was stupid and just said "I met the prince" without saying anything. Lan Ting was timid and kept his head down as he kowtowed. Congratulations, body trembling a little.

Mengxi looked at the appearance of these two maids, and quietly nuzzled at Miaoxi, thinking that they were indeed concubines, even the maids had never seen the world. He went to see Zhixi again, but was glared at by Zhixi, and then he lowered his head and stopped being meddlesome.

Mu Hanzhang just glanced at his two maids, his calm eyes showing no emotion or anger. Before getting married, Mrs. Beiwei Hou said that the maids around him were old and would be suspicious if they stayed with him, so she only allowed him to bring two little maids.

Jing Shao frowned secretly. These two maids looked nothing like the people who had been with Mu Hanzhang all year round. It seemed that he had to find two useful people for him: "Thank you, I'll look for the princess later." A young boy and two guards will come.

"This slave was negligent. Let's take care of it today." Duofu hurriedly apologized. The princess is a man and can be accompanied by servants and guards. However, most husbands' families will ignore this matter. The prince explained this, which shows that he really cares about the princess. Got interested.

After hearing this, Mu Hanzhang's calm expression relaxed slightly, and he stood up and saluted: "Thank you, Your Majesty." With the servants and guards, it meant that he was allowed to go out on a regular basis. For him now, this was really a timely help.

Jing Shao saw the look of surprise in his eyes and felt aches in his heart. He quickly stretched out his hand to support him: "This is what you should do, why are you thanking me?"

When visiting the emperor and empress on the day after the wedding, the prince and concubines must wear court clothes. Now that Jing Shao has been crowned king, the grade of his court uniform is naturally higher. Officials of the third rank and above of the Chen Dynasty wear purple court clothes; the court clothes of princes wear dark yellow, the prince wears apricot yellow, and the prince wears moon white. Mu Hanzhang is now the princess of the Imperial Ancestral Temple, and has the title of first-class wife. However, he is a man and cannot wear women's imperial robes, so his court robes are also purple, and the style is similar to the prince's robes.

Mu Hanzhang is twenty years old this year and has already received the crowning ceremony, so Lanting gave him a purple gold crown matching the court uniform. Although Jing Shao is less than twenty years old, he has been crowned king, so he can bring five Clawed silver dragon crown. The purple gold crown was different from ordinary crowns. Lan Xuan, who had never seen such a crown before, couldn't buckle it no matter what. He was so anxious that he was sweating, but he didn't want to ask Zhixi and the others for help, for fear of appearing like they had never seen the world. Disgraced the young master.

Jing Shao glanced at the little girl, stepped forward and gestured to give him the tiara, and skillfully opened the purple gold buckle: "On your wedding day, it is your husband who will crown you." In the previous dynasty, there was a tradition of the husband giving the bride a yellow appliqué on the morning of the wedding. , to comfort his wife who was uneasy because she wanted to visit her aunt, but it was no longer fashionable to wear stickers, so Jing Shao made this up entirely on his own.

"Your Majesty?" Mu Hanzhang, who was sitting down, had to stand up, "Why is this happening?"

Jing Shao didn't answer, but carefully tied it into his bun, and smoothly smoothed the two hanging gold ribbons between the soft blue hair.

Two equally handsome people stood together, one was elegant and the other was cold. They seemed to match each other perfectly. Miao Xi, who was tying the jade belt for Jing Shao, couldn't help but praise: "The prince and the princess stand together, they are really a golden child." , couldn’t be a better match.”

She had already understood the situation this morning. Not only did the prince not hate the princess, but he also liked her very much. Miao Xi, who had always been smart, would not miss the opportunity to please the prince.

"Really?" When Jing Shao heard this, he held Mu Hanzhang's waist and pulled him to the full-length mirror. The person next to him was tall and slender, but still half a head shorter than himself. This made Jing Shao quite proud, "Well, indeed A perfect match."

Mu Hanzhang looked at the image in the mirror and found that the wound on his lower lip had indeed healed seven or eight times. The blood scab had fallen away, leaving only a pink mark, which could not be seen without looking carefully. It wasn't until he heard the maids' laughter that he realized what was happening and quickly pulled the bag off his waist: "Let's go, it's too late." After saying that, he walked out without waiting for him.

"My lord, please don't blame me. The princess is shy." Realizing that his young master was rude, Lan Ting hurriedly explained to Jing Shao in a low voice.

"Huh, don't you think this king can tell?" Jing Shao followed him expressionlessly, looking at Jun Qing's reddish ear tips and his heart became happy.

"Sister Zhixi, is the prince angry?" Lan Xuan was so frightened by the cold snort that he shrank his neck and asked Zhixi at the side.

Zhixi covered her lips with a handkerchief and said, "The prince is like this. You will know the majesty brought out by years of fighting."

The one who went to the palace took an eight-carriage sedan with red curtains and canopy. The two of them sat in the same sedan. Mu Hanzhang moved with some discomfort. The pain in his waist and thighs was unbearable.

"Do you feel pain in your waist? You lean on me and I'll rub it for you." Jing Shao naturally noticed this action and reached out to take him into his arms. Without waiting for his consent, he put his big hands on his waist and started rubbing it. Feeling that the body in his arms stiffened for a moment, and then slowly relaxed, he couldn't help but curl his lips and said, "If the Queen says something later, just listen. No matter what I reward you, just continue."

He remembered that the Queen had rewarded her with very valuable things, which made him mistakenly believe that Mu Hanzhang was very popular with the Queen. Naturally, he disliked him even more. Now that he thought about it, he was really naive at that time. How could he not accept the Queen's reward? It makes sense, and no matter who this person is, as long as he is a man, he will definitely be in line with the Queen's wishes.

Mu Hanzhang looked up at him, nodded and said, "I understand." He had also heard about the royal family. As the son of Empress Yuan, it was normal for Jing Shao to have a feud with the step-empress. However, is this person saying this to comfort him? Thinking of this, I felt a little sweet in my heart. Except for that bad night, this man's behavior after he woke up was really gentle.

"Don't call me 'Chen' in private, it sounds so unfamiliar." Jing Shao squeezed and thought that this narrow waist felt really good, not like a woman who would break if pinched, but like a leopard's The waist is the same, with smooth lines and full of tension.

The strength of the kneading on the waist was just right. Although he knew it was wrong, he couldn't move away. Mu Hanzhang had to pretend not to know and talked to him: "The etiquette cannot be discarded, and the prince should be careful when speaking in private. It is better to call him 'mother'." It’s so good, if it were listened to by interested people, it would be enough to be included in the book.”

"Jun Qing, are you caring about me?" Hearing this, Jing Shao couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips and lowered his head to ask him.

Mu Hanzhang glared at him: "I am just admonishing." I had only heard people say that King Cheng was irritable and irritable, but he had never thought that he could be so frivolous.

"Haha..." Seeing his appearance, Jing Shao felt cute and couldn't help laughing.

The little eunuch following outside the sedan couldn't help pinching himself when he heard the laughter. Oh my God, everyone in the capital knew that King Cheng could not inherit the throne after marrying a male concubine. How could the prince still laugh so happily? No. Could it be that the queen was mad at her?

Seeing that he was still smiling, Mu Hanzhang turned his head and ignored him. Unexpectedly, when he turned his head, he bumped into Jing Shao's strong and warm chest. He couldn't help but blush. It was as if he was throwing himself into his arms and was busy struggling. Get up.

"Okay, okay, I won't laugh," Jing Shao hurriedly held him down to prevent him from getting up, and whispered, "Don't move, otherwise the bearers will find out."

"You..." Mu Hanzhang really didn't dare to move and just glared at him angrily.
