Mrs. Tang sat on the wedding bed, with dragon and phoenix candles burning, but the festive atmosphere was not visible.
After all, the summer days are long, and the sunlight outside is still quite bright.
Tang Shi lowered her head shyly, waiting for Yinreng to come forward and drink the nuptial wine with her.
Emperor Kangxi always cherished Yinreng, and even though he was bestowed with the title of princess, besides having a decent family background, her appearance was either delicate, bright, or dignified.
Tang has a pair of dimples, and her smile is sweet; she's a sweet girl.
"This servant greets Your Highness." Tang Shi became anxious when she saw Yinreng standing motionless at the door.
Yinreng quietly sized her up. Her face was too big, her skin was too bad, her voice wasn't pleasant enough, she spoke in a high-pitched voice, and her figure was as strong as a man's. In every way, she couldn't compare to his Xiaoyan.
Yinreng's sharp, disdainful gaze was mistaken by Tang Shi as affection.
Tang smiled shyly; she had always been confident in her appearance.
Yinreng frowned and said impatiently, "Let's go to bed!"
He felt nauseous looking at such a flawed person.
Tang was startled by Yinreng's urgency, and she looked pleadingly at Pearl beside her.
Shouldn't the Crown Prince say some tender words to her?
Tang's flawless appearance is nauseating.
De Shun said to Pearl with a blank expression, "Miss, today is the princess's special day. Let's go out."
The chief eunuch serving the crown prince wielded immense power in the inner courtyard.
Upon hearing De Shun's eerie voice, Pearl shuddered and quickly retreated, not daring to disobey.
With her trusted confidante suddenly gone, Tang felt as if her backbone had been removed, and her eyes were filled with panic.
Recalling the teachings of her supervising nanny, Tang suppressed her fear and stood up, feigning composure.
"My lord, let me help you undress." Tang Shi blushed as she stood before Yinreng.
Her hand trembled slightly when it touched Yinreng's clothes.
Yinreng looked at her coldly: "So impatient?"
Tang, who had been shy and timid, immediately turned pale. These were definitely not kind words!
Tears streamed down her face as she said, her eyes filled with humiliation, "Didn't you say it was time for bed? I was just following my duty and undressed you. How could I be an improper woman!"
"I only said one sentence, but you've prepared quite a few rebuttals for me." Yinreng was displeased.
No woman in the world is as sensible, charming, and lovely as his Xiao Yan.
These words were even more hurtful. In her panic, Tang tripped over a foot and fell directly at Yinreng's feet, tearing his robe in the process.
Yinreng disgustedly pushed her away: "Like a starving man? What do you take me for! You're a nuisance!"
For a moment, Tang, whose waist had struck the sharp corner, forgot the pain in her terror.
Is she going to be rejected by the Crown Prince as soon as she enters Yuqing Palace?
"My lord, please let me explain!" Tang Shi crawled forward in fear, trying to grab the departing leg.
Yinreng coldly evaded the question: "What Madam Fan said is right, the Tang family's upbringing..."
Leaving some things unsaid is what leaves the most room for imagination.
Tang Shi harbored a deep-seated hatred for Fan Shi, and she did not believe that Yinreng was lying.
How could a prince like himself scheme against his own backyard? He must have nothing better to do.
"Sir, Madam Fan is jealous of me. How can you believe her?" Madam Tang pleaded desperately.
Yinreng ruthlessly interrupted her: "I don't believe her words, I believe my own eyes. Let's call it quits for today, I don't think you can serve me in bed."
Tang watched helplessly as Yinreng left. The joy in the room was completely sucked out as the door opened, leaving only coldness.
She didn't even know what she had done wrong, or what she had done to offend Yinreng.
Lady Fan watched in disbelief as Yinreng walked into her room. She thought she had lost to Lady Tang, but now it seemed that wasn't entirely true.
"This servant pays respects to Your Highness." Madam Fan immediately prostrated herself, placing herself in a humble and subservient position.
Having spent so many years in the palace, she could see clearly that the men of the imperial family and nobility liked both proud noblewomen and lowly maids.
Yuqing Palace already has a concubine of high status. If she wants to attract the Crown Prince's attention, the only way is to become a completely different person.
However, given Fan's previous status, the most she could come into contact with was a senior eunuch.
The emperor, princes, and members of the imperial clan—these are the most noble members of the royal bloodline, and she has no right to covet them.
Can a eunuch with missing limbs be the same as the crown prince?
Yinreng was extremely annoyed, feeling that his father's judgment was questionable.
Receiving no response, Fan remained calm and composed, lying prostrate on the ground.
As a prince, he always has to maintain a certain air; she understands that.
With her head lowered and her waist slightly swayed, Ms. Fan leaned closer, her proud breasts held high, her eyes filled with seductive allure.
She had a dignified appearance and a mature charm that was extremely attractive to men who had just lost their virginity.
However, Yinreng curled his lip, finding this behavior even more offensive.
Ugly people often cause trouble!
Having been spoiled by Tong Wanyan, Yinreng was restless.
As Fan Shi continued to sway her slender waist and eagerly raised her wine glass to approach, she continued...
She was so close that Yinreng could see the powder that had fallen off her face.
"Compared to the Tang family, you are far inferior." Yinreng waved his sleeve, sweeping away the female demon who wanted to defile him.
De Shun stared in disbelief as his master swiftly dealt with two princesses, displaying formidable fighting prowess.
"Master, are you staying in the study today?" De Shun asked anxiously.
Yinreng stood in the middle of the road, followed by a large group of people.
"Do you think I'm as idle as you? Lately, there have been so many affairs at court, keeping Father Emperor awake at night. If I don't share Father Emperor's burdens and instead indulge in the pleasures of women, wouldn't that be the height of filial impiety? Listen to me, all of you, 'beauty and lust can kill,' so be more prudent and focused on your work!"
