Chapter 297 Newly Married 2

Li Yue is a know-it-all. She came secretly to gossip with Su Qingwan when she was eating. Lu Feng and his wife did not come to the palace to attend the wedding. At the banquet, someone asked tactlessly why the eldest master did not come. Lu Shaoqing said that he was unwell.

Li Yue said, "Master Lu's expression is so wonderful!"

She was obviously gloating. Su Qingwan raised her eyebrows, "Is he really going to tell the world that I am Xie Zhaolan and imitate what I did a year ago?"

That's too ridiculous. If that's true, he has wasted all these years of studying without caring about his own interests. If that's true, Lu Shaoqing will definitely lock him up at home.

"He wouldn't dare."

Qingyun sighed and scooped a spoonful of sweet soup to feed Su Qingwan's mouth, "What are you talking about on such a happy day? Girl, drink some sweet soup."

Li Yue also briefly described the situation at the wedding banquet. All the civil and military officials of the court were present. The palace had a three-day buffet, and the common people could also come to share in the joy. The buffet was set up outside the palace, and the formal guests were inside the palace. The civil officials and military officials sat on each side, and Lu Jing had to attend all of them. It was likely that he would attend until very late, and several of his brothers who were not good at drinking were drunk.

Su Qingwan might as well take a nap. If she had to sit and wait for him, she would have to wait until after midnight. There was a stage in the palace tonight, and the sound of stringed instruments could be heard faintly. The front yard was bustling, but the back yard was quiet. Lu Jing didn't care about so many false formalities, and Su Qingwan also felt that she could take a nap and wait for him.

This wedding dress is extremely long and dull. She wants to change into a light dress. Qingyun said, "Miss, although the prince does not care about empty formalities, you can't go too far. The phoenix crown has been taken off, and people have to sleep. Taking off this wedding dress again... It's really inappropriate."

"Okay!" Su Qingwan thought about it and felt that it was a bit too much. Qingyun ordered someone to fetch water. Su Qingwan washed off the makeup on her face. She hadn't slept for half the night before. She got up early today and was tired after a day, so she fell asleep quickly.

Qingyun and Li Yue walked out of the bridal chamber lightly and closed the door. A row of maids stood outside the door. They were all servants in the main courtyard. Some of them stood in a proper manner, while others were busy and quiet. Half of them were brought by Su Qingwan, and the other half were from the palace. The rules were very strict.

When Qingyun had nothing to do, he called out the maids in the palace, recognized their faces one by one, and asked about their specialties.

The front yard was bustling with occasional music and shouts. When Lu Jing returned to the backyard, it was indeed past midnight. His steps were a little unsteady. Zhou Jingming and Li An supported him, and they reeked of alcohol.

Qingyun walked in quickly, wanting to wake up Su Qingwan. Lu Jing raised his hand and said, "Qingyun, stop. There's no need to call her."

Qingyun, "..."

This is the prince's palace, and the regent is the king. Although she is the princess's person, there is no need to be too dampening on the wedding night. Qingyun did not expect that Lu Jing was so drunk and still conscious. She did not want to go against Lu Jing in public, so she responded and stepped aside.

Lu Jing pushed the door open and entered the bridal chamber. The bridesmaid wanted to follow him in, but was turned away. The door of the bridal chamber was closed. The bridesmaid hurriedly shouted, "Your Highness, this is not in accordance with etiquette. We haven't performed the ceremony yet."

The bridesmaid waited for half the night, wanting to follow the rules and formalities, but she was locked outside the door by Lu Jing.

Lu Jing's voice came through the door, "There's nothing for you to do now, collect your money and go away."

Before the bridesmaid could say anything, she was taken away by Li An. Li An stuffed silver into their pockets and apologized with a smile. The bridesmaids were all from the palace, and they kept saying that the prince had violated a taboo. They grumbled a few times but could not resist the power of the regent, so they left in a huff.
