Before Yinzhi could even glance at Yinreng with suspicion, Yinti, taking advantage of his long legs and arms, led Yinzhi directly back to the bridal chamber.
Yinti's rough actions made Yinzhi, who had just recovered a little from the effects of the alcohol, even more dizzy.
He was in a daze, thinking that the one who had forced him to drink was the eldest brother, and had nothing to do with the second brother, the Crown Prince.
The Crown Prince's second brother smiled at him with such concern, and didn't hold a grudge. He's such a good person.
Yinti never imagined that his imposing face would make him unjustly remembered by his younger brother, especially for the bad deed of taking the blame for the Crown Prince.
When the groom arrived at the bridal chamber, the others greeted the bride with auspicious greetings after her veil was lifted.
The meticulously dressed Dong Eshi, with her delicate red lips and shyly shimmering eyes, looked stunning in the room decorated with red silk.
She was chosen by Yinzhi himself from among several noble ladies, and her appearance was flawless.
When Dong Eshi revealed her face, the first person she looked up at was not Yin Zhi, but Tong Wanyan, who had reassured her for so long.
She gave a faint, shy smile and nodded to Tong Wanyan.
Tong Wanyan smiled back and said, "I wish the Third Prince and his wife a long and happy marriage and many children."
Hongzhao and Tana, who were asleep on the wedding bed, heard Tong Wanyan's voice and immediately sat up, replying in their sleepy little voices, "Wishing you a healthy baby soon!"
The chubby little ones don't speak standardly yet, and their unclear pronunciation makes them even cuter.
Yinzhi and Dong'e smiled from the bottom of their hearts: "We are grateful for the auspicious words from Consort and my little nephew and niece."
The auspicious words of the twins and Consort Tong, who will have a life full of good fortune, can be taken seriously.
“A marriage bestowed by the Emperor is naturally perfect. I won’t disturb you two any longer; you can visit each other again later,” Tong Wanyan said.
After using up the usefulness of Hongzhao and Tana as bed-pressing boys, Tong Wanyan carried the two chubby little dumplings away, one in each arm, without even breaking a sweat or getting tired.
Tong Wanyan walked out of the room first, and the other wives followed suit, tactfully leaving as well.
Looking at Yin Zhi's flushed, drunken state, if they didn't stay any longer, they might see something they shouldn't.
With no outsiders present, the wedding room, filled with the aroma of wine, took on an air of ambiguity.
"What's your name at home?" Yin Zhi asked, holding Dong E's small hand and stroking it repeatedly.
Dong E felt somewhat uncomfortable smelling the strong stench of alcohol emanating from him.
"My name is Hailan," Dong Eshi said softly and shyly, her head bowed.
"This name suits you well; you are as beautiful as your name suggests." Yin Zhi touched her and reached out to unbutton Dong E Hailan's clothes.
Dong'e Hailan frowned slightly. She hadn't even bathed yet, so why was the Third Prince in such a hurry?
Thinking about the news her family had found out about the many beauties in Yin Zhi's harem, Dong E Hailan's heart went from burning with desire to turning cold.
For some reason, she thought of Tong Wanyan, who had spent half the day with her; someone like that made her feel more at ease.
Thinking of Tong Wanyan's gentleness, grace, and nobility, Dong E Hailan, being delicate, did not want to have any contact with Yin Zhi.
She gently pushed Yinzhi's shoulder, and Yinzhi swayed and fell onto the bed, starting to snore.
On the first day of her marriage, Dong E Hailan spent it while her groom slept soundly.
The accompanying nanny and servants secretly looked on with sympathy.
Only Dong'e Hailan breathed a sigh of relief. She was a vengeful person, and she remembered how Consort Rong and her husband had used her as a scapegoat.
"Since the master is drunk, you should help him to bed," Dong E Hailan said softly.
The next day, Emperor Kangxi and Consort Rong, who were waiting for the young couple to come and pay their respects at Zhongcui Palace, looked gloomy upon receiving the news.
