Chapter 89 Princess An Ning
The fifth prince watched the two bickering, smiled without saying anything, and drank his wine slowly.
In the bridal chamber.
Liu Yue looked at Xiao Fuguang and spoke.
"My lady, the Regent still values you very much. Although this wedding was hastily planned, it was still well prepared."
Xingyue spoke from the side.
"Liu Yue, we should now address you as the Princess Regent."
Liu Yue smiled and spoke upon hearing this.
"That's what you said."
"We should call her princess now."
Then he spoke to Xiao Fuguang.
"Princess, now that you have the prince, no one will bully you anymore."
Xiao Fuguang spoke upon hearing this.
"Don't put too much hope on a man."
"Love in this world is just icing on the cake."
Liu Yue and Xing Yue looked at each other when they heard this. Ever since the Madam passed away, the young lady had been very cold and indifferent. Now that she was getting married, there was no joy on her face at all. They just hoped that the Regent could treat the young lady sincerely and make her happy in the future.
Suddenly a voice was heard outside the door.
"Sister-in-law, can I come in?"
Xiao Fuguang looked at Liu Yue.
Liu Yue spoke.
"Miss, I've inquired. Besides the Prince Regent, Princess An Ning also lives in the Prince Regent's Palace. Princess An Ning is said to have been frail since childhood. Since the Prince Regent established his own palace, she has been living with him in the palace."
Xiao Fuguang nodded.
Liu Yue went to open the door.
An Ning walked in with a smile on her face, followed by two maids carrying dishes.
"An Ning has met my sister-in-law."
"I've long heard that Princess Huguo is exceptionally talented and resourceful. Seeing you today, I finally realize that you, sister-in-law, are also stunningly beautiful. It's a blessing for our Regent Palace that my brother can marry you."
A rare smile appeared on Xiao Fuguang's face.
"I guess you are Princess An Ning."
"It's said that the Prince Regent dotes on his only sister. Seeing her today, Princess An Ning is so gentle and sensible. I would love her too."
Princess An Ning stepped forward and pulled Xiao Fuguang up.
"Sister-in-law, I asked the kitchen to make you some food. There are many guests outside, and I'm afraid it will take some time for my brother to come back to accompany you. Eat something first. If you starve later, my brother will be very distressed."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Fuguang smiled and sat down.
"Thank you so much for your trouble, Princess."
An Ning leaned on the table with her hands, half supporting her head, and looked at Xiao Fuguang and spoke.
"Sister-in-law, please don't be polite to me. Can you follow your brother and call me An Ning?"
Xiao Fuguang looked at her when he heard that.
"Since Princess has said so, I will call you An Ning from now on."
When Xiao Fuguang looked closely at Princess An Ning's face, his expression changed slightly.
Congenital deficiencies mean that brothers and sisters may die early.
No wonder Princess An Ning never goes out. I'm afraid she has to take medicine at all times of the day.
Seeing that Xiao Fuguang was looking at her, An Ning spoke in confusion.
"Sister-in-law, is there something on my face?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Fuguang quickly restrained his expression and joked with a smile.
"No, I just thought our An Ning was so pretty that I couldn't help but take a few more glances."
Princess An Ning's cheeks flushed when she heard this. Is this new sister-in-law so good at talking?
"Sister-in-law, please stop teasing me. I'll be embarrassed if you do that."
Then he picked up some food for Xiao Fuguang himself.
"Sister-in-law, try this. I don't know what you like to eat, so I made some according to your taste. Tomorrow, just tell the kitchen what you like to eat."
Xiao Fuguang picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of vegetable.
"I'm not picky about food, I like everything. Since these meals were prepared by An Ning, I will definitely eat more."
While An Ning was dining with Xiao Fuguang, she told her some things about Xuanyuan Jing.
An Ning didn't yawn until Xuanyuan Jing came back.
"ah…………"
"Sister-in-law, my brother is back, so I'll go back."
Looking at her tired appearance, Xiao Fuguang understood that this child must have been extremely sleepy for a long time, but she still stayed here with him.
"An Ning, wait a minute."
Then he took out a talisman.
"You are weak and have poor sleep quality, waking up easily. You should carry this talisman with you from now on."
Seeing this, An Ning looked at Xuanyuan Jing.
Xuanyuan Jing nodded.
"Your sister-in-law can give you all good things, why don't you thank her quickly."
An Ning hurriedly took the talisman.
"Thank you, sister-in-law. Don't worry, An Ning will definitely take good care of herself."
"I wish my brother and sister-in-law a happy wedding, and I wish you a peaceful departure."
Waiting for An Ning to go out.
Xuanyuan Jing opened his mouth and gave orders.
"You all go down too."
Liu Yue and Xing Yue were unmoved by what they heard. They looked at Xiao Fuguang until he nodded.
The two of them bowed and retreated.
The tableware had been cleared away and replaced with wine.
Xuanyuan Jing raised his hand and poured two glasses of wine.
"Fuguang, we haven't drunk the wedding wine yet."
There was indeed such a process. Xiao Fuguang reached out to take the wine glass, crossed arms with Xuanyuan Jing, and drank the wine in the glass.
For some reason, she felt Xuanyuan Jing's gaze on her.
Xiao Fuguang couldn't help but feel a little nervous. Really, it was just a marriage, wasn't it? What hadn't happened before? What was there to be nervous about?
Xuanyuan Jing pulled her to the dressing table and took off the phoenix crown on her head.
"Fuguang, how do you feel about getting along with An Ning today?"
Xiao Fuguang rubbed his neck, which was sore from being pressed by the phoenix crown.
"Princess An Ning is gentle and lovely. I quite like her."
Hearing this, Xuanyuan Jing raised a gentle smile.
"An Ning has been in poor health since she was young. She usually stays at home and doesn't have many friends in this imperial city. I'm relieved that you can get along with her. Since you are her sister-in-law in the future, you will be able to take care of her."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Fuguang turned around and leaned against the dressing table.
"Your Majesty, Princess An Ning's poor health is due to a congenital deficiency, right?"
There was nothing to hide, Xuanyuan Jing pulled over a stool and sat down and started talking.
"It's true that she was born with a congenital defect. Someone plotted against her when she was about to give birth. An Ning was born prematurely, and she suffered a heavy hemorrhage during childbirth, leaving An Ning and me behind and passing away."
Xiao Fuguang listened while looking carefully at Xuanyuan Jing's face, but it was foggy and he couldn't see anything clearly.
"The harem is indeed dangerous. It's really heartbreaking that An Ning has gone through such a thing. What about you, Your Highness?"
Xuanyuan Jing spoke in confusion after hearing this.
"What?"
Xiao Fuguang continued to speak.
"My mother was plotted against when she was pregnant with An Ning. I wonder if the same thing happened when she was pregnant with the prince..."
Xuanyuan Jing spoke helplessly after hearing this.
"I can remember everything when my mother was pregnant with An Ning, so I know what happened."
"As for me, I thought I had some plans at the time, but I was able to avoid them because of my father's favor and my mother's cleverness. When my mother was pregnant with An Ning, there were more and more new people in the palace, so..."
Xiao Fuguang knew what the following words meant. The emperor's heart is the most difficult to guess because it is the coldest. It seems that the late queen felt awkward when meeting Xuanyuan Jing's mother.
"Your Majesty, can you please let Fu Guang take your pulse?"
Xuanyuan Jing's eyes flashed with nervousness when he heard that, so quickly that it seemed as if he had never felt nervous before.
"My health has always been good. Apart from some injuries sustained on the battlefield, there have been no other problems."
"It's getting late, and you're tired today. Let's take a shower and get some rest!"
After saying that, he reached out to hold Xiao Fuguang's hand.
"I've prepared some clothes for you in the closet, including two sets of pajamas that I had hastily made. Try them on first. I also have some fabric in the warehouse, all given by my father. I can make you some more clothes."
Xiao Fuguang followed him towards the wardrobe, but there was a look in his eyes.
Why do I feel like Xuanyuan Jing is hiding from me while taking his pulse? Is there something wrong with his body?
