Perhaps knowing that Xuan Yuanzhan wouldn't do anything to her, Su Xuening slept soundly that night.

However, thinking about the tea ceremony she was supposed to perform in the morning, Su Xuening woke up early.

Xuan Yuanzhan also woke up early. He didn't expect to sleep so well. He turned to look at Su Xuening, who was already awake, and said, "It's still early. You can sleep a little longer."

Su Xuening was no longer able to sleep and sat up halfway.

"It's getting late, I still need to serve tea to my mother." Su Xuening lowered her head and looked at Xuan Yuanzhan, her long black hair cascading down like a waterfall, making her appear so gentle and graceful.

Xuan Yuanzhan's heart skipped a beat uncontrollably, and he hurriedly got up.

Xuanyuan Zhan went to the wardrobe to pick out a piece of clothing, only to find that his wardrobe was full of colorful clothes, and each one was paired with a dress of the same style and color, while his usual black brocade robe was nowhere to be seen.

...Xuanyuan Zhan was speechless. Needless to say, this must be Bai Fuya's masterpiece again.

Enraged, Xuan Yuanzhan hastily picked out a red robe and put it on before leaving.

Bihe and Lülian were waiting outside to serve.

"Your Highness." The two bowed respectfully as they saw Xuan Yuanzhan emerge.

Xuanyuan Zhan glanced at the two of them and said, "The princess is awake. Come in and serve her."

"Yes," the two replied, and went into the house together.

Inside the room, Su Xuening stood in front of the wardrobe, looking at the colorful clothes inside. She finally understood why Xuan Yuanzhan had been standing there for so long; these probably weren't his favorite colors.

Seeing that everyone else was in pairs, and only that red dress was left, Su Xuening chose the same dress and color as Xuan Yuanzhan's.

Inside the room, Bihe and Lülian helped Su Xuening with her makeup.

Su Xuening stared blankly at herself in the mirror, her hair styled in a woman's bun.

In her previous life, she never wore a woman's hairstyle. Now, reborn, she has chosen a different path. Hopefully, she will have a different ending in this life.

"Miss, shouldn't you get your facial injuries treated?" Bihe said regretfully as she applied makeup to Su Xuening.

It would be such a pity if this scar ruined such a beautiful face.

Su Xuening stared at the scar on her face, but still didn't want to treat it: "No rush."

Xuanyuan Yu has not given up on her.

Although Xuan Yuanzhan seems like a decent person now, she doesn't want to consummate the marriage with him yet. Perhaps the scar can be of some use, and she can delay it for as long as possible.

"princess."

Just as Su Xuening finished her makeup, Granny Shang arrived.

"Please come in."

Upon hearing Su Xuening's voice, Granny Shang entered the room and bowed to Su Xuening in front of the dressing table, saying, "This old servant greets Your Highness."

"Granny Shang, you may rise." Su Xuening stood up and personally helped Granny Shang up.

Granny Shang looked at Su Xuening and smiled, "The Princess Consort is stunningly beautiful and radiant; she is truly a wonderful person!"

Su Xuening smiled shyly and lowered her head, saying, "You flatter me, Granny!"

"The Dowager Consort sent this old servant to make the bed for the Prince and Princess." Granny Shang had come with a mission this time.

Su Xuening naturally knew what she was there for: "Please go ahead, Granny."

Granny Shang bowed to Su Xuening and then led two maids to make the bed.

Su Xuening had already removed one of the blankets from the bed, and Bihe and Lülian had just made the bed.

Granny Shang had actually come to get the handkerchief, but after rummaging around in the quilt for a while, she couldn't find it. It wasn't until she saw the small box by the pillow that Granny Shang opened it and took a look.

Upon seeing the handkerchief adorned with red plum blossoms in the small box, Granny Shang was delighted. She took the small box and bowed to Su Xuening, saying, "The bed is ready. The Dowager Princess is waiting for the Prince and Princess to have breakfast together."

Su Xuening glanced at the small box in Granny Shang's hand, nodded to her, and said, "Please go back and inform the Dowager Consort that the Prince and I will be here shortly."

"Then this old servant will take his leave."

Having obtained what she wanted, Granny Shang naturally did not linger any longer and took her leave with her two maids.

After Granny Shang left, Su Xuening also went out and saw Xuan Yuanzhan waiting for her in the courtyard.

He was eight feet tall, with an elegant and refined appearance. Dressed in red, he stood under the crabapple tree, and was indeed a sight to behold.

Su Xuening shook herself for a moment before walking to his side and bowing to him: "Your Highness."

Xuan Yuanzhan turned around and saw that she had her hair styled in a married woman's bun and was wearing the same style and color of new clothes as him. Xuan Yuanzhan instantly felt that his red clothes were not so bad.

"Let's go."

The two went to Ningxiang Garden side by side.

At Ningxiang Garden, Madam Bai was already waiting for them. When she saw the young couple enter the house side by side, Madam Bai's face immediately lit up with a smile.

"Mother." Su Xuening greeted Bai Shi with a curtsy.

"No need for formalities." Madam Bai strode forward and helped Su Xuening up. She then affectionately pulled her close and praised her, "Our Ning'er is so beautiful. It's really a waste of your looks to be with this rascal of ours."

Although Su Xuening knew that Bai was easy to get along with, she did not expect that on the first day of their marriage, Bai would be so affectionate towards her.

She couldn't bring herself to dislike her mother-in-law, Bai Shi; she was truly a good person.

Xuanyuan Zhan was about to lash out when he saw Bai Shi belittling him, when he heard Su Xuening say, "Mother is too kind. The Prince is also very handsome, just like Mother."

Su Xuening's words of praise pleased both Xuan Yuanzhan and Bai Shi.

Bai glanced at Xuan Yuanzhan with a smug look: "It's fortunate that he resembles me, otherwise how could he be worthy of you? I wouldn't have the face to ask the Emperor to grant this marriage!"

Seeing that she was belittling him again, Xuan Yuanzhan's face darkened, and he said irritably, "Do we still need to serve tea?"
