Chu Jinghuai coughed lightly and asked, "What is the princess doing?"
"The princess is bathing and changing."
The corners of Chu Jinghuai's lips gradually rose, "Then I will go to her yard tonight."
Ling Ying glanced at Ling Feng and said, "You kid finally got your business done."
Ling Feng: What did I do?
......
"What? Consummating the marriage?" Chen Jingxi sat up in shock in front of the dressing table!
Chunmei pushed her back and said, "Yes, Princess, you and the prince have been married for three years. I have already asked the prince."
Chen Jingxi was stunned. She asked why he washed her so nicely tonight. It turned out that he wanted her to...
Although she was his princess, she still couldn't accept sleeping with someone she had only known for a few days.
"Well, can I refuse?"
Chunmei asked in confusion, "What do you mean, Princess?"
"I think it's too fast."
"Princess, how can this be considered fast? The prince has been back for some time, and you are well again. It is your duty to bear a child for the prince. The old lady also instructed that you and the prince must consummate your marriage as soon as possible."
She has been a girl for two lifetimes and has never even been kissed. Is she going to give herself away like this? No, no.
"Oh, my head hurts, my stomach hurts, I feel so uncomfortable. Go and inform the prince that I am not feeling well today and cannot sleep with him."
"Why is the princess feeling unwell? Do you need me to call a royal physician?" Chu Jinghuai's voice suddenly came from above.
Chen Jingxi heard the noise and held her forehead and stomach, "Uh... Your Majesty, why are you here so soon? This princess is not feeling well today, please find someone else to serve you."
Chu Jinghuai smiled, "The princess is ill. As her husband, how can I enjoy myself alone and abandon her?"
"Don't worry, my lord. There are many people in my courtyard. They will take good care of me. You can go without worry."
Chu Jinghuai shook his head. "How can I rest assured if the princess is like this?"
"Let it go, let it go. This princess is not a hypocritical person by nature. Your Highness, please do whatever you want. Don't delay things for me."
"I have nothing to do tonight. Whatever I do, it's not as important as the princess's health. It just so happens that I know a little bit about medicine, so I can take a look at her."
As he said that, he pulled Chen Jingxi into his arms.
Chen Jingxi cried out.
Chunmei looked at her princess's expression and understood. She waved to the maid in the room and walked out of the room.
Chu Jinghuai placed his hand on Chen Jingxi's pulse, and then a slight smile appeared on his lips.
"Does the princess have a stomachache?"
Chen Jingxi quickly covered her stomach with her hands, "Yeah! It hurts."
"Is it epigastric pain?"
"Yes, it's the upper abdomen."
"Does it hurt on the left? Or on the right?"
"The left side hurts."
"That's right. Perhaps it's because the princess overate at the banquet and suffered from indigestion. For the next three days, the princess should pay attention to a light diet and she will be fine. Starting tomorrow, I will instruct the kitchen to send the princess porridge with pickles."
"What?" This damn man actually wanted her to drink porridge with pickles for three days. It was a surprise that he could come up with such an idea.
"Why does the princess have other symptoms?"
"Well, I suddenly realized it wasn't the left side that was hurting, it was the right side."
Chu Jinghuai suppressed a smile and said, "Princess, please think carefully. Where does it hurt? The pain on the right side is more troublesome than the left side."
Chen Jingxi frowned. If he said that his right side hurt, this person would not have any tricks waiting for him.
"Have you thought it through, Princess?"
Chen Jingxi lowered her head and thought to herself: How about eating pickled vegetables and porridge for a few days? Ah! No, she wanted to eat braised spare ribs, drunken shrimp, fried snails, and spicy mixed vegetables...
"Your Highness, I don't think it's that serious. I think it will be fine after a bowel movement. Don't worry about it."
"Really? The princess's health is related to the future of our palace."
Chen Jingxi asked loudly, what does the future of this palace have to do with her? She looked up at Chu Jinghuai. No, what is this guy laughing at? "You are kidding me."
After saying that, she raised her foot to kick Chu Jinghuai.
Obviously Chu Jing had experience this time. He clamped her legs tightly, put one arm around her waist, and clamped Chen Jingxi's hands with the other hand, making her unable to move.
"Hahaha, who told the princess to play tricks on me first?"
Chen Jingxi angrily said, "Chu Jinghuai, you bastard, if you have the guts, then let me go. What kind of ability do you have to treat a weak woman like me like this?"
"Princess, you can continue to scold me and see how I will let you go."
Chen Jingxi swallowed, "Your Highness, we can discuss this. Listen to me, it's not good for you to go against a woman's will like this. Everything should be based on mutual consent, especially when it comes to matters between men and women."
Chu Jinghuai raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Really?"
"Your Majesty, you are right to listen to me."
"But the prince and the princess are husband and wife. Having sex is a natural thing and it is also the princess's responsibility."
"Your Majesty, you are completely wrong to think so. There is no such thing as right and proper in this world. Think about it! As a prince, such a high-ranking official, forcing a weak woman would damage your prestige if it got out."
Chu Jinghuai narrowed his eyes slightly, "Why is the princess unwilling to perform the Zhougong ceremony with me?"
"Your Highness, you are wrong again. I am just not ready yet. I will be willing when I am ready."
"How long will it take for the princess to prepare?"
Chen Jingxi bit her lip, thought for a moment, and raised a finger, "One year."
Chu Jinghuai lowered his eyes and said sternly, "One year?"
"Oh no, no, no, half a year." Chen Jingxi quickly changed the words.
"One month at most."
Chen Jingxi was shocked and said, "One month? That's too short."
"Since Princess thinks it's too short, let's do it now." As he said this, he carried Chen Jingxi to the bed.
"Wait a minute, Your Highness. Just one month is enough." She would think of a solution after a month.
Chu Jinghuai was both angry and amused when he saw her like this. He was a first-rank prince, and yet he negotiated with the princess for this matter and actually agreed to her unreasonable request.
And why is she unwilling to become a real couple with me? Is she still thinking about that person?
Chen Jingxi looked at him, smiling and frowning, afraid that he would regret it again, and quickly said: "Your Highness, since you have agreed, let me go, and you can go back."
After hearing this, Chu Jinghuai put her down, but did not turn around and leave. He walked straight to the bed and sat down.
Chen Jingxi's eyes widened. "Well, Your Majesty, didn't you agree?"
"I agree."
"Then you're not leaving?"
"Leave? Why should I leave? This is my bedroom. If anyone leaves, it should be the princess."
After hearing this, Chen Jingxi's expression twisted for a long time, and he held his breath but couldn't let it out. This was indeed his dormitory. It was not wrong to say that the entire palace belonged to him. He could sleep wherever he wanted.
But he sleeps here, where does she sleep?
