Chapter 174 Escape 3
Ye Yunchu withdrew his gaze and looked straight ahead.
He thought to himself that he would not let the concubine wait for long and he would go to see her soon.
Maybe I can't stay at her place overnight in a too ostentatious way, but it's okay to meet her.
If he gave her more rewards and treasures, she would be happier.
Ye Yunchu curled the corners of his lips and was in a good mood.
Li Runrun ran to the pawnshop and pawned the jade pendant and anklet that the prince had given her.
Since I'm leaving, why keep it? I can't help but miss the person, so I just pawn it all.
The money he gave her at that time was a token of her having followed him, and it was his last chance to protect her.
This is comparable to the thought behind the gift he gave her, and it is also more practical.
The boss was a very good person after all. He saw that Li Ruanruan was not short of money, so he said, "Madam, have you really made up your mind?"
Li Ruanruan nodded: "Of course."
After taking the banknote, Li Runrun took one last look at the two things, then left without looking back.
From then on, she was no longer the prince's concubine, she would just be herself.
Li Runrun didn't need the palace maid's help. She jumped onto the carriage, lifted the curtain and got in.
Xiao Jing put down the book in his hand and looked at her: "Is everything done?"
Li Ruanruan nodded: "It's all done."
Xiao Jing chuckled, half joking and half serious: "My carriage has started, but it won't stop again. Have you really thought it through?"
"I've thought about it a long time ago. Let's go, quickly."
"OK."
Xiao Jing gave an order, and the carriage slowly moved forward.
Because everyone had crowded into another street to watch the prince's wedding, their journey on this road was extremely smooth. The carriage successfully left the city and slightly increased its speed as it continued on its way forward.
Li Runrun lifted the car curtain and admired the scenery. She felt that the air was fresh and free.
Today is also a very good day. The sun is very warm and it feels warm on my face.
Marquis' Mansion.
The bride was welcomed into the house, and after the complicated wedding ceremony was completed, it was already getting dark.
Next is the wedding banquet.
Xu Wan was sent to the bridal chamber and sat obediently on the wedding bed, following the rules very well. Finally, she had waited for this day.
There would also be maids who felt sorry for her starvation and secretly gave her some cakes to eat.
Xu Wan refused. Although she was also very hungry, she wanted Ye Yunchu to feel sorry for her and share a bowl of dumplings with her.
Dumplings, also known as Jiaozi, symbolize the early birth of a son.
Only if she gave birth to a legitimate son would her position be secure. Then, if she wanted to deal with Li Runrun, she would have more status and power.
Xu Wanqing curled her lips, but quickly put her thoughts aside. Today was her wedding day with Ye Yunchu, so why should she think about an insignificant maid?
What bad luck.
Although she thought so in her heart, Xu Wan still raised her hand and touched the scar under the corner of her eye. It had faded so much that it was almost invisible.
But she still asked the makeup nanny to paint a peach blossom on it to cover it up.
It makes her look even more charming and attractive, and the prince will definitely not dislike her.
She is a million times better than that maid Li Runrun.
Someone helped to stop the drinking, but it was too noisy today, and Ye Yunchu ended up a little drunk. Fortunately, he practiced his drinking capacity by drinking the high-proof liquor brewed by Liruanruan.
When I'm drunk, I sit down and take a rest, drink a cup of sobering tea, and I feel much clearer.
Ye Yunchu sat on a bench in the corridor. The guests outside were still making noise, and the Marquis' Mansion was extremely lively.
It is very quiet here, as if the noise has gone away, making people more awake.
Ye Yunchu sat for a while, and Haitang came over to support him: "My Lord, it's time for the wedding night."
Ye Yunchu stood up and walked towards the bridal chamber.
There are still many procedures to go through in the bridal chamber.
Ye Yunchu pushed the door open and went in.
Xu Wan was also very beautiful today, but perhaps because Ye Yunchu was still a little tipsy, he didn't think Xu Wan was attractive. Instead, he thought that if Xiao Ruanruan also wore this dress and sat here with this phoenix crown, she would definitely be very attractive.
Xu Wan looked at Ye Yunchu shyly, stood up, and drank the wedding wine with him.
She picked up the wedding wine and said softly, "Husband..."
Ye Yunchu also picked up the wedding wine, but what was on his mind was that New Year's Eve, when Li Ruanruan was lying on the bed passionately, hugging his neck, calling him "husband" and "husband, go slower" over and over again.
The corners of Ye Yunchu's eyes were red with emotion, and he lowered his eyes with an unfocused gaze.
But Xu Wan thought Ye Yun was looking at her, and she smiled even more shyly.
Xu Wan tangled their hair together and put it away.
Thinking of Nanny's teachings, she stood in front of Ye Yunchu with her brows lowered gently, and was about to take off Ye Yunchu's wedding dress: "It's getting late, I will help my husband to sleep."
Ye Yunchu grabbed Xu Wan's wrist, and Xu Wan's heart skipped a beat.
Ye Yunchu didn't know if he had drunk too much. He tilted his head, then let go of Xu Wan and ran out.
Then he held on to a pillar and vomited. Xu Wan's face turned pale when she saw him move.
I heard the sound of him vomiting again, and knew that he was also feeling unwell because he drank too much.
He hurried out and patted his back considerately.
The maidservant beside him hurried forward to serve, handed Ye Yunchu tea for him to rinse his mouth, and handed a handkerchief to Xu Wan.
Xu Wan helped him wipe the corners of his mouth.
Xu Wan patted his back gently and told the person beside her, "Go get a bowl of sobering tea."
Ye Yunchu sat in the corridor. He looked at Xu Wan and said, "It's cold outside. Go back and don't catch a cold. I drank too much and my stomach feels uncomfortable. I'll sit here for a while."
Xu Wan said: "I'm not cold, I'm accompanying my husband."
Ye Yunchu laughed again, not a single serious thing: "If you freeze to death, how will you take care of me later?"
Xu Wan's face turned red again. She glanced at Ye Yunchu with affection, then said coquettishly, "Then I'll go back and wait for my husband. It's cold outside, so my husband shouldn't sit for too long."
Ye Yunchu smiled wickedly again: "Got it, I won't keep Madam waiting for long."
Xu Wan seemed even more embarrassed and panicked. She stopped talking to him and turned back.
Ye Yunchu restrained the smile on his face, and he did not take the sobering tea handed to him by Haitang.
Instead, he lowered his eyes, appearing cold and reserved, and asked, "Did she eat well today?"
It goes without saying who she is.
This was just a casual question. He thought of her. He couldn't see her at the moment, so he could only care about her. It seemed that hearing news about her would make him feel more at ease.
After asking, Ye Yunchu waited for Haitang's answer and reached out to get the sobering tea.
However, Haitang didn't expect that her hand holding the sobering tea would shake, and the tea would spill onto the ground, breaking the ceramic.
Ye Yunchu's eyebrows jumped suddenly, as if he had a premonition of something. He raised his eyelids and looked at Haitang.
Haitang was flustered but tried to pretend to be calm. She knelt down and admitted her mistake: "I'm fine now. I'll go get another bowl."
Haitang started to pick up the broken porcelain pieces, not even caring about the cuts on her hands, as if she had made a huge mistake.
Haitang turned around and was about to leave.
Ye Yunchu stopped her sharply: "You haven't answered me yet."
