Chapter 168 Wedding Night

The noisy sounds gradually faded away behind me.

Su Shengsheng gently moved her body and whispered, "I'll walk down by myself."

"Aren't you injured?" Xie Xuan's voice was gentle and low, like a whisper in the night wind. "Wait a minute, I'll get the ointment."

Injuried?

Su Shengsheng suddenly understood. She had been riding on horseback for several days...

On the corridor, the cold wind was swirling and the voices were sparse, making it seem particularly deserted.

It looks like we still have some distance to go.

The last time she came, she just went to the study.

Even so, one can still feel the grandeur of this palace.

She would be a little tired now, and since he was willing to condescend to see her off, she didn't need to be pretentious anymore.

Su Shengsheng said nothing more and let him carry her all the way to the bridal chamber.

The bridesmaid appeared out of nowhere, holding a handful of red dates, chestnuts and peanuts, and scattered them onto the wedding bed.

A few of them even rolled into Su Shengsheng's hands, carrying the scent of fragrant fruit.

In the limited field of vision, Xie Xuan could be seen sitting beside her, with one of his long legs crossing the step stool under her feet.

After a while, she felt the bridesmaid take a lock of hair from between their heads and tie it into a bun with a red ribbon, smiling and singing, "We are married as husband and wife, and our love is unquestionable."

There were many people gathered around, sending them their blessings.

After a while, Su Shengsheng saw through the gap in the veil that the matchmaker brought a tray with a jade ruyi on it.

Bored Su Shengsheng quickly adjusted her expression.

As Yu Ruyi gently lifted the veil, what came into view was Xie Xuan's face with a warm smile.

She had never seen such a smile on his face before, so she couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

Perhaps it was because she looked a little disheveled today, and Xie Xuan was also slightly stunned.

He looked at Su Shengsheng, who lowered her eyes, with a thoughtful look.

The surroundings fell into silence, as if everyone was a little surprised?

Su Shengsheng quickly collected her thoughts and acted like a submissive young lady, not paying attention to other people's speculations about her.

In this strange atmosphere, the matchmaker seemed a little embarrassed and laughed dryly a few times, then brought two more glasses of wine.

The wine glasses were tightly wrapped together with a red string, and several auspicious objects made of pure gold were hung on the knot, emitting dazzling light.

Su Shengsheng didn't have time to take a closer look and stopped when she took the wine glass.

How do you drink wedding wine here?

It's not that she has a bad memory, but that she has never paid attention to the details in this regard.

This wedding was so hasty that all her family members who could have informed her were still on their way.

The matchmaker was not the same maid who had done the facial kneading before. From the moment the veil was lifted, she realized the haste of this marriage.

Coupled with the farce that just happened in the classroom, she more or less understood the reasons.

However, even so, she is the princess after all, how can she be so perfunctory?

Fortunately, the bride is still young and has skin as white as jade. Even without makeup, she is still adorable.

Although her overly fair face could not hide her haggard look, she exuded an indescribable delicate beauty.

Seeing that none of the bride's family members were present and she seemed hesitant, the matchmaker was afraid that she would not know the rules and make a fool of herself.

So she whispered earnestly, "Princess, just drink half a cup, then exchange glasses with the prince and drink his wine."

After Su Shengsheng understood what she meant, he took a sip of half a glass of wine.

But when the cup left her lips, she froze.

Looking at the clear lip print left on the rim of the white porcelain cup, the wine I had just drunk suddenly burned up.

If she had known, she shouldn't have put this on!

How come nothing the princess uses is waterproof?

But the wine glass in her hand had been taken away by the bridesmaid and replaced with Xie Xuan's wine glass so quickly that she had no time to wipe it.

Looking at the glass of wine in her hand that was slowly being handed to her, and the many gazes around her that she could clearly feel even though they were not looking directly at her, Su Shengsheng felt her cheeks inexplicably hot.

He didn't dare to look up and meet people's eyes, so he could only quickly drink the wine in the glass.

After the wine glasses were taken away, the matchmaker brought in a plate of lovely cakes.

After taking a sip of wine, my empty stomach did feel a bit uncomfortable.

Seeing the bridesmaid pick up a bun with chopsticks and hand it to her lips, Su Shengsheng cooperated and accepted it with a smile.

But after just two chews, she realized something was wrong.

"Are you going to have a baby?" The matchmaker looked at the princess with a smile. She deliberately didn't remind her just to make it seem more natural.

Unexpectedly, Su Shengsheng, who thought that the cooking skills were not good enough, was afraid that he would be criticized, so she only replied vaguely.

“It’s okay, it’s okay…”

Before he finished speaking, the whole room burst into laughter.

The bridesmaid had never seen such an amusing scene before and couldn't help laughing out loud.

The wives of the military generals who were watching originally wanted to see who was able to capture this general who was not interested in women.

I didn’t expect that he would be such a wonderful person!

Surrounded by the laughter in the room, Su Shengsheng suddenly realized.

Just when she was at a loss as to what to do, she saw Xie Xuan pick up the chopsticks, pick up a steamed bun and put it into his mouth.

"born."

Su Shengsheng, who had been trying hard to suppress the blush on her face, could no longer do so.

Her cheeks were quickly stained with a rouge-like red cloud, which made her jade-white face more gorgeous.

Su Shengsheng thought to herself: No matter how embarrassing something is, it will be gone in a year.

She had known that she would marry Xie Xuan today.

The first thing is to run as far as possible...

Who wants to have a baby with him?

Did she agree?

snort!

Su Shengsheng's mind, which had just relaxed, could not help but refocus at this moment.

She didn't know what kind of tricks were waiting for her next.

Speaking of the bridal chamber, the most important part is the bridal chamber disturbance.

However, the prince's bridal chamber was not one to be disturbed casually...

Besides, so many things have happened today...

The wives of several military generals exchanged glances with each other.

The princess looks so young, I'm afraid she can't stand being teased.

What's more, the key is that they don't dare to offend this prince easily...

Otherwise, should we just consider what happened just now as over?

The ladies were all familiar with each other and quickly understood each other's intentions, nodding in agreement.

"I wish the prince and princess a happy marriage and a son soon!"

A group of wives of military officers, as well as a few young men who had come to join in the fun, all bowed and congratulated him.

After Xie Xuan nodded, everyone left one by one.

The bridesmaid had probably never seen such a hasty wedding, especially the wedding of a prince as noble as Xie Xuan.

So before leaving, she still dutifully gave a few instructions.

"If the prince goes out to take care of the banquet, the princess must remember not to lie down on the couch. You must wait until the prince returns before going to bed."

She looked at the bride who looked sleepy, and was a little worried and wanted to give her a few more instructions, but Xie Xuan waved his hand and signaled her to leave.

The bridesmaid sighed helplessly.

This famous prince's wedding banquet was enough for her to brag about for the rest of her life.

This time it’s good, I won’t be laughed at for the rest of my life.

As the crowd left one after another, the house suddenly became quiet.

There were only the two of them and a few unfamiliar maids left in the room.

Su Shengsheng's fingers on her wedding dress curled up slightly.

Xie Xuan turned around and instructed the maid beside him, "Serve carefully."

After saying that, he stood up and said to Su Shengsheng, who had her head lowered and her expression was difficult to discern, "If you feel sleepy, loosen your clothes and have a rest."

Su Shengsheng could only nod in agreement.

Only after watching Xie Xuan's departing back did she let out a long sigh of relief.

Then he raised his eyes and looked at the dormitory illuminated by the wedding candles.

This area is much larger than her bedroom in her previous life.

At first glance, it seemed a bit empty.

No wonder it takes up an entire street.

Everything is available in the dormitory alone.

There is a tea room with a round roof door, and on the other side there is a chess board and a tatami-like bed.

There is also a hall surrounded by a table, filled with flowers and porcelain vases.

The back part should be the ear room, which occupies half of the entire dormitory.

Her sight finally found the target, and Su Shengsheng waved to several maids who looked even more nervous than her.

"Everyone, go down."

"this……"

Several people looked embarrassed because the prince had just given instructions.

An older maid stepped forward with a smile, "If the princess finds it noisy, why not leave one person to serve her?"

Su Shengsheng didn't look at her, but just rubbed his tired brows.

"I'm tired, you all go down."

She really doesn't have the energy to deal with these people now.

Several people looked at each other, but since their master had already made it so clear, they could not say anything more and could only retreat.

After everyone had left, Su Shengsheng walked to the bronze mirror and took off the eight pairs of hairpins decorated with gold threads and malachite.

The wedding dress she was wearing was very complicated, so she just took off her outer clothes, took out a wedding quilt, and lay down on the soft couch with her clothes on.

Rubbing her sore neck, she breathed a sigh of relief and slowly closed her eyes.
