The Firstborn Son 6
Princess Yunyang was so anxious to have Lei Yuan and Tao Yuan get married, but the wedding still took more than a month to prepare because there were some very important things that took some time to prepare.
Princess Yunyang, after consulting with the Imperial Preceptor, established a spiritual energy control array inside and outside Lei Yuan's chambers. This meant that when Tao Yuan and Lei Yuan consummated their marriage, the Imperial Preceptor and two hundred divine servants would stand guard outside, weakening Lei Yuan's Xuan Yang energy.
After bathing, Tao Yuan wore only a thin red inner robe and was carried into Lei Yuan's bedroom in a sedan chair by eight attendants.
Frost and Rain opened the curtain of the sedan chair. Tao Yuan helped them get out of the sedan chair and walked towards the spacious red bed.
After he lay down on the bed, Frost and Rain drew down the curtains and withdrew.
Tao Yuan pinched his fingers in a daze. This wasn't his first wedding consummation, but he felt strangely nervous. Perhaps the tense atmosphere of the people waiting outside had infected him, making him nervous too. Although it wasn't his first wedding consummation, it was the first time he did it with so many people watching outside. It made him feel a little strange.
Hearing the sound of the door opening again, Tao Yuan knew that Lei Yuan had come in. When his footsteps approached and the curtain was lifted, Tao Yuan's eyes met Lei Yuan's. For a moment, Lei Yuan felt his heart beating, which was very obvious.
Lei Yuan sat down beside the bed, holding Tao Yuan's hand and looking at him. Tonight was the night when his spiritual power was most likely to lose control. As long as this consummation went smoothly, the chances of future accidents would be very small. But if he couldn't get through tonight safely...
Lei Yuan was shocked by his own thoughts. His first thought was that if he couldn't survive, he wouldn't be able to spend his life with the person before him, not the obligations and responsibilities he should bear as King Lei Wu. Why? Why did he subconsciously have such a selfish thought in the first place?
Seeing that he had been sitting there without any other movement except holding his hand in a daze, Tao Yuan sat up, took off his red pajamas, and looked at him.
Tao Yuan thought, he had already taken off his clothes by himself, if he still didn't react, then he could only use his trump card, cry in front of him, and then ask him if he disliked him.
Lei Yuan looked into Tao Yuan's eyes, and suddenly a blurry picture appeared in his mind, and then he kissed Tao Yuan's lips involuntarily.
Tao Yuan climbed onto his shoulders, closed her eyes and was kissed by him, then slowly lay down, slightly opened her mouth and let him kiss her deeply.
The two kissed for a long time, Lei Yuan caressing Tao Yuan's smooth skin, gradually becoming aroused, his body beginning to heat up. Gradually, kissing and caressing alone could no longer satisfy Lei Yuan.
The moment the two of them united, a powerful blue light burst out from Lei Yuan's body. The imperial preceptor and priests guarding outside felt this powerful force and became terrified. If Lei Yuan's spiritual power exploded, even they might not be spared and would be destroyed.
Sweat kept flowing down Lei Yuan's forehead. He used all his strength to control himself, but the feeling of wanting to vent but not being able to do so made him very painful.
Tao Yuan held his face and pulled him towards him, their lips touching again. White light emanated from Tao Yuan's body, overshadowing Lei Yuan's blue light.
Lei Yuan hugged Tao Yuan tightly. The extremely wonderful feeling made him control his spiritual power, but he could not control his desire. He moved quickly and forcefully.
Because there were many people guarding outside, Tao Yuan tried his best to control himself from shouting too loudly, but in the end he couldn't control himself anymore and shouted out loud.
On the night of Tao Yuan and Lei Yuan's wedding, most of the officials in the capital city did not sleep the whole night.
The officials who stood on Lei Yuan's side naturally hoped that he would survive the night safely and that Tao Yuan would successfully conceive. The greater Lei Yuan's strength, the greater his power would be, and the more benefits they would receive.
The officials who stood on King Yanwu's side naturally hoped that Tao Yuan and Lei Yuan would not survive the night. As long as Lei Yuan died, the remaining forces on his side would no longer be a threat.
Princess Jiade and Yan Hao sat in the hall, waiting for news. They had no plans to return to their rooms tonight. Their level of anxiety was no less than Princess Yun Yangyang's, but they wanted the exact opposite outcome.
Qu Feng couldn't sleep, so he sat in the hall with them waiting for news. He was still feeling aggrieved about giving up the position of the legitimate ruler, so he really hoped that Tao Yuan and Lei Yuan would not be able to survive the night.
As the sky gradually brightened, Princess Jiade and Yan Hao didn't receive the news they were hoping to hear, nor did they even hear the sound of thunder. If Lei Yuan's Xuan Yang Body had erupted uncontrollably, there would surely have been a loud thunderclap, but the entire night was remarkably quiet, with no loud noises heard, whether near or far.
Yan Hao slapped the low table next to him hard, then stood up and strode to the door, looked up at the sky, and clenched his fists tightly to suppress the anger and unwillingness in his heart.
Princess Jiade's expression was also grim. She had a premonition that they would be the oppressed party in the future. After so many generations of open and covert struggle, if everything ended in failure because her son married the wrong person, she would regret it for the rest of her life and would not even be able to face her husband and ancestors in her death.
Qu Feng looked at Yan Hao, then at Princess Jiade, then lowered his head to minimize his presence, fearing that they would vent their anger on him.
The sky was completely bright, and Tao Yuan woke up in Lei Yuan's arms, half-opening his eyes and looking up at him with a confused look on his face.
Lei Yuan stroked his face, kissed him hard on the forehead, and then kissed his lips.
Tao Yuan woke up from his deep kiss. After he broke the kiss, she looked at him and asked, "My King..., my husband, shouldn't we get up now? We still have to serve tea to our mother. It would be bad if we were late."
Lei Yuan held Tao Yuan and sat up, looked at him seriously and asked, "Do you feel uncomfortable?"
"Uncomfortable?" Tao Yuan thought for a moment and said, "My waist is a little sore, and down there... it hurts a little."
"How does it hurt?" Lei Yuan was a little worried.
Tao Yuan blushed and said, "Well, last night I felt a very hot energy remaining in my body."
"Did my Xuan Yang power hurt you?" Lei Yuan reached out and pressed on his stomach.
"No." Tao Yuan shook his head and said, "I was not injured by Xuan Yang's power. If I were injured, I would definitely feel it myself. It's just a normal pain. Don't worry."
Lei Yuan hugged Tao Yuan tightly in his arms, and only at this moment did he feel relieved. After last night, he had fully felt that his power was no longer as difficult to control as before. He was just worried that part of the power would hurt the person in his arms. Even though he knew that he was a body of the Holy Spirit, he still felt worried. He was really becoming less and less like the calm and indifferent person he used to be.
The two got up, washed and changed their clothes, and then went together to pay their respects to Princess Yunyang.
Princess Yunyang also hadn't slept all night, but she was still energetic and radiant, without any sign of fatigue. She was waiting for them to pay their respects and offer them tea.
Seeing the two of them walking in together, Princess Yunyang's smile grew wider, her eyes were filled with relief, and even had tears in them.
After Tao Yuan knelt down to offer tea to Princess Yunyang, the three of them had breakfast together. Princess Yunyang gave Tao Yuan some more instructions before returning to her room to rest.
Lei Yuan will leave the capital in three months and lead his troops to Beiliang Pass, and he will be gone for at least several months, so the two of them cherish the two or three months of time they spend together and are inseparable every day.
The Lantern Festival was coming, and Tao Yuan asked Lei Yuan to take him to the East Lake to light lanterns. Lei Yuan immediately asked someone to make arrangements.
They were going to the busiest spot, East Lake, to light lanterns. Along the lake's edge stood a long row of restaurants, the largest and most luxurious of which belonged to the Leiwu Palace. Because Lei Yuan was taking Tao Yuan to light lanterns tonight, he had instructed his staff to secure the top floor of the restaurant, barring anyone from entering.
The soldiers led the way and the carriage stopped outside the restaurant. After Lei Yuan got off the horse, he personally helped Tao Yuan get off the carriage.
Tao Yuan held Lei Yuan's hand and walked down the wooden steps. As soon as he stood still, he saw Qu Feng, who had just got off the carriage at the door of the restaurant next door, and Yan Hao standing next to Qu Feng.
Yan Hao looked at Tao Yuan's face in a daze, thinking to himself, I haven't seen him for a while, why does his face become more handsome?
As soon as Qu Feng saw Tao Yuan, he couldn't control his anger. He felt that it was because of Tao Yuan that he became a big joke among the people in the capital.
Tao Yuan and Lei Yuan had already walked into the restaurant. Qu Feng turned to look at Yan Hao. Seeing Yan Hao staring at Tao Yuan's back in a daze, he was so angry that tears came out.
As soon as Lei Yuan and Tao Yuan walked into the restaurant, the originally bustling first-floor hall quickly became quiet, and then the guests stood up and saluted Lei Yuan and Tao Yuan.
The restaurant was very large and luxurious. Because of the Lantern Festival, the restaurant was almost completely full, with only the top floor reserved for Tao Yuan and Lei Yuan. The restaurant had five floors, and the top floor offered a great view, offering a stunning night view.
Tao Yuan and Lei Yuan went upstairs from the middle corridor. The wide stairs were covered with thick carpets. When they reached the fifth floor, there were already many servants and maids waiting to serve them.
Tao Yuan walked to the window and looked out. East Lake was brightly lit by the numerous light boats, and the sound of sheng and xiao music drifted from the water. Several main streets were also ablaze with lights, a truly beautiful sight. He had seen many nightscapes before, but this one was different in style from modern nightscapes. But no matter the nightscape, the most important thing was who you were with.
Tao Yuan turned to look at Lei Yuan standing next to him, and a strange emotion suddenly rose in his heart. How many more lifetimes could he and this person love each other? When he completed all the time travels and was able to leave the system, where would he go?
Lei Yuan also turned around and looked at Tao Yuan. He looked into Tao Yuan's eyes and found that there was a maturity in his eyes that did not belong to his age. Lei Yuan was just feeling strange, but the emotion in Tao Yuan's eyes disappeared in an instant, making him wonder if what he saw just now was just an illusion.
"Aren't we going to light lanterns? Go and pick a few you like." Lei Yuan said to Tao Yuan.
Tao Yuan nodded, then walked to a place where there were many lights. Various flowers, birds, fish and insects were painted on the lights. They were very beautiful, but as he was choosing, Tao Yuan suddenly started to paint his own.
"I want to draw it myself." Tao Yuan said to Lei Yuan.
Lei Yuan immediately turned around and signaled the servant standing by the door to get ready.
The attendant brought colored ink and a brush, and Tao Yuan walked to the table and carefully painted three koi fish on the lamp.
Lei Yuan looked at his painting and felt that although his painting was simple, he handled the light and shadow very well, making the three koi look like they were alive, rolling and playing on the paper, which made people feel very fond of it.
"Give this to me." Lei Yuan said.
Tao Yuan thought he was going to let it go, so he nodded in agreement and prepared to draw another one for himself. But drawing another koi carp would be boring, so Tao Yuan thought seriously about what to draw.
He suddenly thought of peach blossoms, but not the peach blossoms in the system, but the peach blossoms in the yard of his original world that had not bloomed for many years but bloomed overnight.
Tao Yuan picked up the brush again and painted a large blooming peach tree on the lamp. Because he did not paint it in great detail but in a very abstract way, he finished it quickly.
"Give me this too." Lei Yuan said again.
"...Then what should I put?" Tao Yuan looked at him speechlessly. He wanted one for every one he drew, so should he put it down or not?
"You release those, release all of them, but don't release these two." Lei Yuan didn't know why, but he was reluctant to let him let go of these two lanterns.
Tao Yuan recalled that in his previous lives, he had the habit of collecting the words he had written and the paintings he had drawn. He thought that no matter whether he remembered it or not, no matter how many times he was reincarnated, he probably couldn't change this habit, so he could only let it go.
Tao Yuan originally wanted to write a few lines of poetry or words on other lanterns, but when he thought that if he wrote, Lei Yuan would definitely leave again, and he really couldn't light the lantern today, he just lit the lantern himself and let it fly away.
The people in the city also started to light lanterns. Tao Yuan looked at the lights that were becoming increasingly dense in the sky. He felt that in such an atmosphere, there was a very romantic feeling, and he couldn't help but smile.
Lei Yuan stared at Tao Yuan's smile for a long time. After coming to his senses, he couldn't help but turn his body towards himself.
Tao Yuan looked at him with a puzzled look, and as his face slowly approached, he subconsciously closed his eyes.
Lei Yuan originally planned to just taste it briefly, but when he felt the soft and tender texture of Tao Yuan's lips, he couldn't help but kiss her deeper and deeper.
