Chenyou Palace.
The ground in front of the wedding bed was covered with a rouge-red carpet with gold threads.
Lu Jinshu knelt straight on it.
Although the cushion was very soft, he had been maintaining this posture since entering the bridal chamber, and it was really tiring.
According to imperial customs, only the husband could sit side by side with his wife. Concubines like him had to kneel on the ground and wait for his wife to come.
Lu Jinshu is in a bad mood now.
To be precise, he has been in a bad mood ever since he learned that his position had changed from the second-rank concubine of the Crown Princess to the third-rank virtuous king.
The door was cautiously opened from the outside.
Jiufu's expression looked a little strange.
Lu Jinshu's heart sank, and then he heard Jiufu say, "I just went outside to inquire. Her Highness the Grand Princess has given our Highness eight dancers, and she's urging His Highness to visit them."
Lu Jinshu's expression became even uglier.
He originally thought that the worst outcome of tonight would be that the prince would go to the Princess's Jinxiu Palace, but now a few dancers suddenly appeared.
It seems that even the heavens can't stand him and keep causing trouble for him time and time again.
Lu Jinshu took a deep breath, controlled the irritation that showed between his brows, and forced himself to calm down.
What Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess wants to do is not something that a mere servant like him can influence. Even if he is angry or unwilling now, he cannot interfere with the predetermined outcome in the slightest.
Lu Jinshu's face regained its calm expression.
If Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess doesn't want to come today, then don't come. After all, he has already entered the East Palace. There is still a long time to come, and he will have the chance to meet Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess one day.
The sand in the hourglass flowed down with a "rustling" sound, and the flickering candlelight by the window became a little smaller. Just when Lu Jinshu's heart was about to sink completely, there was a noisy sound coming from the door.
Ling Shumo felt that her brain was very clear, but her body was getting heavier and heavier. Even walking on flat ground was a little unstable.
Along with the voice of "Welcome Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess", Ling Shumo lifted the red veil of Lu Jinshu, and she finally saw the true face of the groom.
Lu Jinshu was very beautiful, much more beautiful than the dancers she had seen in Weiyang Palace.
The dancers are nice looking, but too frivolous.
Lu Jinshu is different. He has a handsome face and the elegance and gentleness of a young man from a noble family.
If she had to describe him specifically, Ling Shumo felt that Lu Jinshu was the kind of man who looked virtuous and sensible at first glance.
Ling Shumo reached out to pull Lu Jinshu up.
The spring night is short and her heart is already hot.
As the distance between the two got closer, Ling Shumo smelled a pleasant jasmine scent.
It seemed to be on Lu Jin's hair, and also seemed to be on his clothes.
Lu Jinshu's heart was pounding and his cheeks were slightly flushed.
However, the next moment, Ling Shumo stood straight and fell towards Lu Jinshu.
Ling Shumo fell unconscious on the bed. Her last memory was that she felt like she was in a garden full of jasmine flowers. It was warm and comfortable all around, and the exhausted Ling Shumo didn't want to move anymore.
In her previous life, Ling Shumo had a good alcohol tolerance, so when she was in Weiyang Palace just now, she mistakenly thought she was not drunk.
In fact, the original owner's body was really prone to falling down after just one glass of wine.
Lu Jinshu stared at the princess lying on the bed with his eyes wide open. He was dumbfounded.
Lu Jinshu stood there in confusion for a while.
At Jiufu's reminder, the two of them served Ling Shumo together and took off her outer and inner clothes.
That night, Ling Shumo slept very soundly.
Lu Jinshu almost stayed awake until dawn.
When the first ray of sunlight in the morning shone into the house, Ling Shumo's biological clock urged her to open her eyes.
After a hangover, a headache follows.
Ling Shumo supported her body and managed to sit up.
Lu Jinshu, who had just fallen into a light sleep, was immediately awakened.
Jiufu, who had been guarding outside, heard the noise inside and handed a bowl of hangover soup to Lu Jinshu.
Lu Jinshu scooped a spoonful of soup and handed it to Ling Shumo's lips.
Ling Shumo took a sip and her expression suddenly changed. She spat out all the soup she hadn't swallowed yet. "What is this made of? It's sour, spicy, bitter, and sweet. Even Chinese herbal medicines aren't this unpalatable."
Jiufu was so frightened that he immediately knelt down to apologize, his words stuttering a little, "Reply... Reply to Your Highness, you lost consciousness after entering the bridal chamber yesterday, so the virtuous prince went to the small kitchen and made this hangover soup with ingredients such as brown sugar, white vinegar, ginger, honey, and salt water.
Your Highness, please understand that the wise prince is worried about your health and did not intentionally prepare such a disgusting drink and serve it to you.
Good medicine tastes bitter...it is good for the disease..."
Lu Jinshu also looked frightened. He immediately stood up and knelt at Ling Shumo's feet.
Lu Jinshu raised his head and looked up at Ling Shumo. He had a pair of extremely beautiful peach blossom eyes, which were now filled with tears, as if they were about to fall.
No matter how angry Ling Shumo was, she would instantly lose her temper when she met those eyes that were as clear as moonlight.
What's more, she was simply lamenting the taste of the soup and had no intention of getting angry.
Ling Shumo pulled Lu Jinshu up from the ground. "I don't mean to blame you, my lord. Please get up. You worked so hard to take care of me yesterday."
Lu Jinshu wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his hands, and then showed a bright smile.
