But my grandmother said that men always think the best things are the ones they can't have, so if the empress hadn't died young, the ending might have been different.
On the day of Jiang Jin's wedding, both the emperor, the crown prince, and the eldest princess presented him with enviable gifts.
Jiang Jin happily accepted everything.
…
The moment the other person lifted the veil, Wange was extremely nervous, but when she saw the other person, she felt at ease.
Jiang Jin was very satisfied with her reaction, smiled, and drank the nuptial wine with her.
but…
Wan Ge held Prince Duan, who had collapsed into her arms, with some worry. He had just suddenly fallen on her, which had startled her.
I reached out and checked his breath. Seeing his flushed face, I realized he was asleep.
Huh? He fell asleep after just one drink? Wasn't he just a warrior on the battlefield? Aren't the soldiers of the frontier used to drinking strong liquor? And he must have been drinking a lot outside, how did he get drunk so quickly?
Wan Ge had considered the possibility that he might be faking being drunk, but it didn't seem likely.
So Wan Ge helped the man take off his outer clothes, removed the hair ornament from his hair, and lay down beside him.
Wan Ge reached out and touched his cheek. The prince was really handsome, with fair and delicate skin and deep, handsome features. His cheeks were still red from drinking, which made him look somewhat cute.
This is the kind of prince she has been married to.
…
After Jiang Jin regained consciousness, he remembered that he had gotten drunk on his wedding night. Why was he still so unable to hold his liquor?
He never drank alcohol when he was on the frontier, because he always remembered that drinking could lead to trouble. He didn't drink yesterday when entertaining guests, because he didn't want to be drunk on his wedding night.
Despite all his precautions, he forgot that the nuptial wine was genuine and hadn't been switched. He thought it was just one cup, so it shouldn't matter, but he didn't expect to be so incapacitated by even one cup.
"Your Highness, you're awake." Wan Ge carried a basin of water into the room.
Seeing this, Jiang Jin quickly stepped forward and took the water from his hands: "From now on, let the servants do these things. You don't need to do them."
Jiang Jin put the basin aside and quickly grabbed her hand to check it.
Those who knew better would think she had done some heavy work, as she had simply brought a basin of warm water. "Your Highness, I only brought a basin of water. It's nothing. It's just a wife's duty."
"I don't care. Even if my princess doesn't do anything, I'll still like her. You didn't marry me to do chores. You're my wife, and all you need to do is stay by my side." Fetching water was originally a servant's job, so she wasn't needed. Jiang Jin would be especially happy as long as she was by his side.
Wan Ge nodded gently: "This concubine understands."
"I'll wash up first, and then we'll go to the palace after breakfast."
Wan Ge nodded obediently.
They had just gotten married and were indeed required to enter the palace to serve tea to the emperor.
Because the empress had already passed away, they only needed to enter the palace to serve tea to the emperor.
Before they returned home, they encountered Her Highness the Eldest Princess, who was chatting with her husband, who was holding the young princess in his arms.
The prince consort is the second son of the prime minister's family. It is said that he and the eldest princess were childhood sweethearts. However, it is said that this second son is quite talented.
He was once considered the heir to the Prime Minister's mansion, and the Prime Minister seemed to be interested in grooming the second son.
