Chapter 390 Are you teasing me? The Crown Princess is very nervous

For a moment, the house was quiet and the rustling of leaves in the wind could be heard outside the window.

And the "thump thump" sound of Concubine Xu's accelerated heartbeat.

She didn't expect that by some strange coincidence, she ended up doing something she had always wanted to do.

Under the black veil, under the shadow of thick and long eyelashes, is a pair of beautiful phoenix eyes, a high nose bridge, and a faint smile at the corner of the lips, with a bit of unruly and uninhibited smile.

Fair skin like jade, three-dimensional facial features, almost perfect.

Concubine Xu was stunned for a moment, he was really, really handsome!

Last year, the man in black promised to show her, but he didn't do it for a long time, which made her angry for a long time, until he disappeared.

She thought she would never have the chance to meet him again in this lifetime, but unexpectedly, not only did she meet him, but she also got to see Lushan's true face as she wished.

This wave is not a loss!

It all happened so fast that the man in black didn't have time to stop it and his appearance was seen by others.

The man in black was stunned at first, but then he was relieved and regarded it as a temporary fulfillment of his promise to her.

During the four months he was away, he actually went to look for Xiaojiu somewhere else, but there was no news.

When passing through Daxia, I stopped by the Imperial Palace for a stroll and then came to Yixiang Hall.

He calmly looked at Concubine Xu who was looking at him, "How long are you going to watch?"

Concubine Xu responded, embarrassed and ashamed, "I didn't mean it." Then she said righteously, "You promised to show it to me last year. Now that I've seen it, it's your promise."

Having seen it, the man in black took it calmly: "Yeah."

Seeing that the man in black was not angry, Concubine Xu became bolder. She stared at that handsome face for a long time. It was really different from what she had imagined.

She thought the man in black was just a rough-looking, average-looking guy, or even staggering, but the result was exactly the opposite.

The man in black lowered his eyes and looked at the woman sitting on his lap. A barely perceptible smile flashed across his eyes: "How long do you want to sit on me?"

Concubine Xu looked down and realized that she was sitting on the man in black in a straddle position. It was forbidden for men and women to touch each other, so she stood up with a red face.

"I'm not the kind of woman who would throw herself into the arms of a handsome man. You stole my book, and I wanted to get it back, so I accidentally fell into your arms." Concubine Xu Ce tried to explain that it was an unintentional act.

The man in black raised the book in his hand and looked at Xu Cefei with a gloomy look, "Can you read this book?"

"It's just a love affair, they are husband and wife... isn't that normal?" Concubine Xu argued, but she actually felt guilty.

"You think it's normal to read such a dirty article?" The man in black almost said that she was an innocent girl and it would be easy for her to learn bad things from reading such things.

Concubine Xu explained: "I was watching the storyline. Besides, the description was not very detailed. When the clothes were taken off, the lights were turned off."

The man in black asked, "Turn on the light? What does that mean?"

Concubine Xu looked at the notebook in his hand and said, "You can tell by looking at it yourself. The clothes were gone before I could take them off completely."

The man in black continued to read the unfinished story in the book with doubts. When he finished reading, he found that the coat was gone after he took it off.

"Even so, it's not suitable for a girl like you to read this kind of book. Don't read it in the future." The man in black stuffed the book into his arms.

When Concubine Xu saw this, she couldn't help but feel a little anxious, because she had promised Tao Liangyuan that she would show it to her after she finished reading it.

"I won't read it, just give it back to me."

The man in black snorted: "If you don't want to see it, what else are you going to do?"

"I...I..." Xu Cefei couldn't find an excuse for a moment. She stared at the book in the black-clothed man's arms, trying to find a chance to take it out.

"I promise not to look." Xu Cefei tried to get closer to the man in black.

"Girls can read more poetry. Books like this are easy to learn badly, so it's best to burn them." The man in black said, looking at the cherries in the fruit plate, picked up one, put it in his mouth and started eating.

When Concubine Xu heard that the book was to be burned, she began to feel sad. The story had not been finished yet, and Tao Liangyuan had not read it either. It would be a shame to burn it.

She took two steps forward, and while the man in black was eating cherries, she suddenly pounced over, aiming for the book in his arms.

The man in black didn't expect her to attack suddenly, and the distance was too close, so it was impossible to dodge.

When Concubine Xu's hand reached to her chest, the man in black grabbed her wrist.

Concubine Xu was caught off guard and fell into the arms of the man in black again. Before she could react, the man in black's joking voice came from above her head.

"This is the second time. Do you still want to argue that you are not throwing yourself into my arms?"

Xu Cefei raised her head and found that the two men were very close, so close that she could feel the man's breath.

"If I say it's not, then it's not." Concubine Xu struggled to stand up, and heard the black-clothed man's joking voice again.

"Didn't you read the book just now? Don't twist around on a man. It can be dangerous."

The man in black spoke the last four words in her ear in a deep, magnetic voice.

Concubine Xu was stunned for a long time, and suddenly thought of what was written in the storybook. Her current behavior was undoubtedly to seduce the man in black, and the consequences would be disastrous.

Concubine Xu was a girl after all, and she was so frightened that she dared not move. Although the man in black looked very handsome, a girl's reputation was very important. She was about to leave the palace and go home, and she could not bring shame to her family.

The man in black saw that Concubine Xu had become obedient and laughed softly, "You are really not easily frightened."

When Concubine Xu heard the man in black making fun of her again, her cheeks puffed with anger. Even so, she did not dare to move.

There is a saying in the storybook: Men are really not easy to tease.

The man in black had teased her enough, so he let go of Concubine Xu and stood up.

"Leave."

Before leaving, the man in black grabbed a few cherries.

When Concubine Xu wanted to stop, the person had already disappeared into the night.

She stamped her feet in anger, "You come and go as you please. What do you think of this place?"

"After picking so many cherries, at least leave the books behind."

The day before the Crown Princess was enthroned, the Imperial Clothing Bureau hurriedly delivered the auspicious clothes to the Hehuan Palace.

Chunxi looked at the auspicious dress on the table. The embroidered patterns were all rare treasures, which showed how luxurious and grand the Crown Princess's auspicious dress was.

"My lady will wear this auspicious dress tomorrow morning and become the Crown Princess. I will have accomplished my mission." Chunxi smiled with satisfaction like an old mother.

The young lady climbed from a small servant, in the lying position of a salted fish, to the position of the Crown Princess. Just thinking about it makes me feel that it is extremely amazing.

"My lady, please accept my knees." Chunxi looked at Shen Chuwei with admiration.

Shen Chuwei was amused by Chunxi's appearance, and following her, her speech became fashionable.

Chunxi chuckled twice.

Shen Chuwei looked at the Crown Princess's auspicious dress. She would wear this dress tomorrow and marry Xiao Jinyan.

For her, the enthronement ceremony was equivalent to a wedding, with complicated procedures and many rules.

When Xiao Jinyan arrived, he saw Xiaojiu looking at the wedding dress.

Thinking about marrying Xiaojiu tomorrow, he was still quite nervous.

"Xiaojiu."

Shen Chuwei's eyebrows curved slightly, "Your Highness, you are here."

Xiao Jinyan came over and looked at the auspicious dress that the Crown Princess was wearing. "Go to bed early tonight. You have to get up at five o'clock tomorrow morning."

Shen Chuwei then remembered that she had to get up early tomorrow. For a bedridden patient like her, getting up early was simply a pain in the ass.

"Just take a shower and go to bed."

They both took a bath and then went to bed to rest.

In order to get up early tomorrow and not miss the auspicious time, Xiao Jinyan asked the wet nurse to take Taotao and Susu to a side hall tonight.

The bed curtains were drawn, and the bed was completely dark.

Xiao Jinyan hugged her and just kissed her, and did nothing else.

"Are you nervous?"

Shen Chuwei shook his head and said that getting up early tomorrow would be the hardest thing.

Xiao Jinyan kissed the corner of her lips and said, "Don't be afraid, I'll take care of everything."

Shen Chuwei said: "With Jinyan by my side, I can follow your instructions without any worries."

Xiao Jinyan said helplessly: "You haven't forgotten the etiquette process tomorrow?"

"No, no, I dare not forget." I still remember the general process, but I may have overlooked the details~

Xiao Jinyan: "Go to sleep."

Shen Chu smiled and went to sleep peacefully.

At five o'clock in the morning, Xiao Jinyan got up and woke up Shen Chuwei who was sleeping soundly.

"Xiaojiu, it's time to get up."

Xiao Jinyan called her several times before Shen Chuwei got up with her eyes narrowed.

The Crown Prince and the Crown Princess need to be separated and served by the nanny and eunuch respectively.

Shen Chuwei was in a daze and was being groomed by the maids.

Bathing took several times longer than usual.

After bathing, you should also spit various essential oils.

Then comes the dressing.

The maids are all elderly, and this is not their first time, so they are very familiar with the process.

Shen Chuwei was still in a sleepy state. She squinted her eyes and looked at herself in the bronze mirror. Her makeup was very heavy and gorgeous.

Her hair, paired with an extravagant phoenix hairpin, surprisingly made her look elegant and noble.

But it is also very, very heavy.

She now felt somewhat empathetic. The Empress must be very tired wearing noble hair and luxurious phoenix crown every day.

Fortunately, there is no problem with my neck.

After putting on the hairpin, the next step is to put on the auspicious clothes.

Two maids took the wedding dress and put it on her.

"What should I do if the wedding dress outside is damaged?"

The nanny's scream of surprise attracted the other two nannies over.

"What's wrong?"

The nanny was extremely anxious and said, "This wedding dress is defective and cannot be worn."

"In the ceremony of enthroning the Crown Princess, everything from the auspicious attire to the attire is extremely important and cannot be taken lightly."

"Hurry up and ask the embroiderer from the Clothing Bureau to fix it."

"It's too late. The auspicious time is coming soon."

When Shen Chuwei heard this, she saw that all the maids were horrified. She walked over with confusion, picked up the wedding dress and took a few looks. She found that the embroidery on the chest was broken. Not only that, but even one of the auspicious beads on the shoulder was missing.

Chunxi saw it and regretted not checking it carefully when the clothing bureau sent it.

She raised her head and looked at Shen Chuwei, "My lady, what should we do?"

Shen Chuwei asked: "Do you have spare auspicious clothes? Or use other auspicious clothes instead."

"Only one set of wedding dresses is prepared, how could two sets be prepared?" Nanny suddenly remembered the ceremony of enthroning the Crown Princess last year, "Chang Liangyuan did have one custom-made at that time, why not borrow it to wear?"
