Chapter 8 Princess Hexuan

"Are these calligraphy and paintings for me?" Wei Qingcheng looked at the two large boxes of calligraphy and paintings, scratched her palm with her index finger, and restrained herself from looking at them.

Looking at the clever servant, he said, "Butler Song ordered that the prince was going to deliver it in person, but after the wedding date was set at noon, he was urgently summoned to the palace. This is why I am lucky enough to meet the princess."

Her skin was fair to begin with and she was born with many illnesses, so she often stayed indoors. Her fair and translucent cheeks were flushed with red. “Put it down and go back. Don’t call me that next time we meet!”

"Yes, Princess!" After saying that, he ran away quickly.

Wei Qingcheng was left alone and annoyed: "Why does a grown man call me princess? This boy is really something. But does he really want me to be his legal wife? Why is he in such a hurry to set a date today?

There must be some great benefits promised in the letter from my father. Dad is such a fool. I will just go there for a false reputation. Why should I care about the status? Besides, Xie Jingyu looks upright and doesn't seem to like men. I will just discuss countermeasures with him when the time comes.

Entering the palace~ Tsk, nothing will happen, right? If that person in the palace knew that his son was going to marry a man as his legal wife, would Xie Jingyu be able to come back safe and sound? After all, they are father and son, so the punishment should not be too severe. Otherwise, let him marry me as the king's servant. The royal family values ​​reputation the most, and those ministers will not agree to this. What benefits did my father promise to the prince that made him take such a risk? What should I do? ”

Wei Qingcheng never opened the calligraphy and painting in his hand. These things were enough to make him worried. He frowned and pursed his rosy lower lips, but he didn't notice that there was one more person he cared about.

The moon is bright in the sky, and the three of them raise their glasses to the moon

"Today is a wonderful night. Let us raise a toast to my dear brother for getting what he wanted and to me for having a good sister-in-law in the future. Let's drink to victory!"

"Drink to victory!"

"Drink to win!!"

The man in the red and purple coat held the white jade cup in his hand and rubbed it carefully. He stared at his friend's eyes full of stars and said teasingly: "What kind of humiliation did you suffer in the palace today? If you ask me, regardless of the status and means, bring the person into the palace and keep him by your side. It will be much easier to love and pamper him."

Xie Jingyu knew that he was teasing her, but she still couldn't help but defend herself: "Don't make fun of him. He is not a thing, nor is he a casual person. He is the apple of my eye. If you do that, I will be miserable."

The pink-dressed woman took a sip of the wine, her tongue trembling. "My Lord, this idea of ​​yours is very dangerous. Force is not acceptable! Besides, this is not about asking for a status for my sister-in-law, but my brother has finally earned a status for himself. After so many years, some people can finally walk in front of the Second Young Master Wei openly!"

Xie Jingyu seemed pleased by these words. The corners of his mouth slightly raised. He touched the ink-black purse on his waist, savored the wine sip by sip, his eyes filled with intoxicating tenderness. The warm night breeze tonight was like the sweet breath exhaled from a lover's lips, soothing the pain in his waist and back.

Song Rui originally wanted to remind them to go to bed early: "Oh my Lord, why did you drink so much? You are still injured!"

The purple-clothed man sighed. After his friend established his own mansion, who could make him willingly take a beating? "Are you injured? I knew you were going to be humiliated. Why? In the current situation, you don't have to give in to him. He just took my name. When did he ever teach you? It's really infuriating!"

Xie Jingyu didn't seem to care at all: "It's okay, it's just a flesh wound. Let him vent his anger, and I can welcome Qingcheng into the house openly. It's a good deal."

He ignored his friend's teasing expression and turned to Song Rui and said, "I forgot. I was too happy and drank a few cups. It's late at night. Please clean up the room for Rong'er and the Marquis. They are a little drunk."

"Yes, I'll go right away. Your Majesty, remember to ask Yi Si to apply medicine to you. If you don't get better by the fifth day, the princess will feel sorry for you." Song Rui said and left.

"Ouch, I'm so sad!" The woman in pink was a little drunk and muttered with pink cheeks.

"Chun Yu, help the young lady back to her room to rest."

"You'll feel bad!" the man in purple parroted the same thing.

"Xiao An! Help your Lord go back to his room to rest."

"Hehehe, you are angry because of shame. I am happy for you, a fool!" Xiao Si supported his master and walked away tremblingly.

After everyone had left, Xie Jingyu stood up and looked up at the crescent moon.

"Are you heartbroken? I hope you don't hate me. If not..., I would rather stay at the frontier and never return to the Central Plains than let the world talk about you and belittle you with lust.

From now on, Wang Yu and Sun Yanhong will never be able to get close to you for even a moment, Qingcheng, please don't hate me...

Qingcheng, if I ask you to be the princess, would you be willing?

Qingcheng, can you please keep a place for me in your heart..."

"Young Master! Young Master?" Awu knocked on the door. Wei Qingcheng opened her eyes a little with difficulty and saw that it was still dark outside the window. She couldn't hold her eyes open and fell asleep again.

"Young Master!!! Princess~" Awu thought of the servant who came that day and secretly gave himself a thumbs up. He also learned a new way to wake up the young master.

"Princess, get up! The master said he has to go early today to count your dowry."

"I'm so annoyed, Awu" the pillow flew out of the window

"I'll be up right away, stop yelling."

I have to say that Awu's method is really effective. His young master only took quarter of an hour to get up and wash up today, which has already defeated 90% of the rich kids in Bianjing City.

When Wei Qingcheng arrived at the warehouse, she found the whole family was there.

Morning worship to the father and mother

"Good morning, father and mother!"

He asked Wei Minghui somewhat uncomfortably: "Sister, why are you here too? Aren't you at my aunt's house?"

"If I hadn't come back, I wouldn't know that my brother got married." Wei Minghui's eyes turned red as she spoke. How could she have known that such a ridiculous thing as a substitute marriage would happen in her family, not to mention that the person marrying for her was her younger brother.

"Mom and Dad, what are you thinking? How can this be allowed? Qingcheng is a man, how can he tolerate such humiliation?

All of you kept it a secret from me and asked me to accompany Sister Zhezhe. If it weren't for the commotion in Bianjing these days and Qingcheng being married, I, her elder sister, wouldn't have known about it! ”

Wei Qingcheng quickly patted her sister on the back: "No, sister, I really want to marry him."

"Yes, Hui'er, this is Qingcheng's choice to marry, don't cry." Father Wei agreed

"I don't believe it. You are still lying to me even at this critical moment!" Tears flowed from Wei Minghui's eyes and she cried even harder.

"Sister, on the fifteenth day of the lunar year, we went to the market to watch the lantern festival. The prince sent me back. There were so many people that I almost fell. It was the prince who supported me all the way and squeezed out of the crowd. After returning home, I was so excited that I asked my father to draw up a marriage certificate, filled in my name, and sent it to his mansion. Then he came to propose marriage. He also gave me a lot of calligraphy and paintings. The prince must be willing in his heart."
