At two o'clock in the afternoon, Xu Yulan woke up feeling relaxed all over.
At a glance, I saw Baili Xuanlang leaning against the table with his head supported by one hand and his eyes slightly closed. There was food on the table.
Xu Yulan then realized that she had slept too long. According to custom, she had to offer tea to her parents-in-law on the second day of her wedding.
Now that my parents-in-law are far away in Xirong, I have to go and offer tea to my eldest sister.
Xu Yulan hurriedly lifted the quilt and quickly covered it again.
She wasn't wearing any clothes!
Thinking back to last night, her clothes were torn by Baili Xuanlang.
At this moment, I look at Baili Xuanlang who is sleeping peacefully at the table as if the years are peaceful.
She couldn't help but feel a little sad. She was fooled by his face. If she had known he was so fierce at night, she would not have married him.
After a brief sigh, she caught a glimpse of a new set of clothes at the end of the bed, and then she stretched herself up with the wedding quilt wrapped around her.
"Hiss-" He gritted his teeth and lay back down.
"Yu Lan." Baili Xuanlang was startled awake and rushed over in fear. He lowered his head and said with a look of self-blame, "This is all my fault. I hurt you last night. Lie down and rest. Get up when the pain is gone."
Xu Yulan felt like she was scratched by a cat. The Third Prince of Xirong actually condescended to admit his mistake in front of her. How could she have deserved this?
Xu Yulan couldn't help but touch his face. "I'm fine. It's not your fault. They say wedding nights are always like this. It will be fine in a few days."
Then she hooked her arms around his neck and whispered a few words in his ear.
Baili Xuanlang's eyes widened with excitement, "Really?"
"...It's true." Xu Yulan blushed and quickly covered her face with the quilt.
Baili Xuanlang pursed his lips and said, "Then every night from now on will be our wedding night."
"Don't..." As soon as Xu Yulan opened her mouth, her stomach started to growl.
"Come and have dinner." Baili Xuanlang hurriedly brought the food over. "Eat your fill. Go back to sleep. There's no need to rush. I'll take you to see my elder sister tomorrow morning."
"Isn't it against the rules if I don't serve tea to my elder sister today? Besides, I got up late."
"My eldest sister won't argue. She specifically told you to have a good rest."
"Oh." Xu Yulan felt relieved after hearing that. "Then I should go to bed early tonight and get up early tomorrow to serve tea to my elder sister."
"Okay, after returning home, we will go back to Xirong. You have to go back with me to see my father, the emperor, and my mother." In order to give Xu Yulan a surprise, Baili Xuanlang deliberately concealed the fact that they would return to Xirong and hold another wedding.
"Then are we going back to Beiyi?"
"Of course, I'll come back with you."
On the day of returning home, Baili Qingluan brought her family and accompanied Xu Yulan back to the East Palace.
Xiao Lingyu looked at Xu Yulan's face and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Look, it’s different after being moisturized. The eyes and eyebrows are expressive and it makes her even more beautiful and charming.
"Yulan." Xiao Lingyu took Xu Yulan's hand and said, "Are you used to living in Prince Fu's Mansion these days?"
"A very good sister, eldest sister, An Ge'er and Ming De are very good to me."
"What about Xuan Lang?"
"Xuan Lang is also very good to me."
"I can see it." Xiao Lingyu said with a smile, "It's written all over your face."
Xu Yulan smiled.
Xiao Lingyu glanced at Baili Qingluan and said, "Yulan, the peppers and tomatoes in the back garden have grown quite a bit. Go check them out with Xuanlang."
"good."
After the young couple left, Baili Qingluan said, "Sister, we are going to take Yu Lan back to Xirong the day after tomorrow. We may have to wait until Yu Lan's baby is one month old before we can return to Beiyi."
"So fast?" Xiao Lingyu was a little reluctant.
Not only does Yu Lan have to leave, it also means that she won't be able to see An Ge'er again until a year later.
"My father and mother are urging us to get married, and we are preparing for the wedding. We can hold another wedding right after we return."
Xiao Lingyu didn't know what to say after hearing this. "Okay, I'll come back after the baby is one month old. I can't just leave and never come back."
"Don't worry, An Ge'er still has to be filial to you and the emperor. How can I leave him in Xirong?"
Xiao Lingyu continued, "How about letting An Ge'er stay in the palace for the next three days?"
Baili Qingluan didn't expect that Xiao Lingyu had his own son, and her love for the three brothers Ang'er did not diminish in the slightest.
"good."
Three days later, Chen Qiao, the confidant of the retired emperor, saw Baili's family leaving the capital, and then turned around and went to Huangjue Temple.
"Are you sure they are not going back to Rongcheng but back to Xirong?" Feng Yanzhi asked.
"I have confirmed that Baili Qingluan will be taking her sister-in-law, Princess Yunlan, back to Xirong to meet her father, the Emperor, and her mother, the Empress."
Feng Yanzhi recalled the opinions of the people in the capital that he had gathered a few days ago.
If he doesn't return to the capital, Feng Jinyi will be able to sit firmly on the throne of Beiyi.
"Go tell the emperor that I have recovered from my illness in Huangjue Temple. Tell him to come and take me back to the palace."
Chen Qiao asked, "Do you want to bring the Grand Empress Dowager back to the palace as well?"
"Li Haiying, go ask the Empress Dowager what she thinks."
"yes."
"Your Majesty," Yun Gu entered. "The Emperor sent Li Haiying to ask if you would like to return to the palace."
When the topic of returning to the palace was brought up, the image of Shangguan Ruian in blood-stained clothes appeared before Empress Dowager Du's eyes, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but tremble. What if she had another nightmare when she returned?
Let Yanzhi explore the way first.
"I've been living quite well in Huangjue Temple these days. I won't be returning to the palace with the retired emperor. Let's go and tell him."
"yes."
"Grand Emperor, the Grand Empress Dowager said she will not return to the palace with you."
Feng Yanzhi nodded and looked at Chen Qiao, "Go ahead."
"yes."
In the evening, Chen Qiao entered the palace. Su Xingyi was surprised but not surprised.
The retired emperor was greedy for imperial power, so how could he be willing to recuperate in Huangjue Temple?
"Okay, I understand. I will go to Huangjue Temple to pick up my father after the court is dismissed tomorrow. Please leave."
"Yes, I'll take my leave." Chen Qiao bowed and left the imperial study.
"What? The emperor has been away for only a short time, and he's already thinking of coming back?" Xiao Lingyu was a little surprised. He had thought that the emperor would need to rest for at least a year or two.
"The Emperor should have wanted to come back after his facial injury healed, but Baili Xuanlang is here."
"He's well-informed. He knows that An Ge'er and his family returned to Xirong today."
Su Xingyi nodded. "The Emperor sent people to investigate, and I know everything. I'll take him back tomorrow, and I'll release Xi Hanxiang, who did something wrong, before he returns to the palace."
"Okay, leave it to me. I'll make sure he has a good dream tomorrow night."
The next day, after court was dismissed, Su Xingyi rushed to Huangjue Temple.
When he arrived at Huangjue Temple, Su Xingyi found that although the emperor's facial injuries had healed and he had lost a lot of weight, he looked much more energetic.
"Father, I'm here to take you back to the palace." Su Xingyi came forward and leaned slightly forward. "Xiaowu misses you."
The Emperor was delighted. "Okay, okay, go see your grandmother. We'll set off back to the capital at 3:00 AM tomorrow."
Su Xingyi frowned slightly, "Okay, I'll be there right away."
Su Xingyi left the yard and gave some instructions before rushing to Empress Dowager Du's yard.
