Chapter 702 Hot
Inside the room, several maids had packed up and were preparing to leave.
"What are you busy with?" Fu Zhaoning had just asked when he saw the room full of red, red curtains, red bedding, and mandarin duck pillows.
On the table were eight pure gold candlesticks with eight red candles on them.
There are red lanterns hanging on the windows, swaying gently in the wind.
Even the teapot and teacups on the Eight Immortals Table were glazed red with golden mandarin ducks painted on them.
I'm going to -
Fu Zhaoning felt a little embarrassed when he saw such a scene.
She subconsciously looked at Xiao Lanyuan, but couldn't see his face because he hadn't taken off his mask yet.
But as soon as Xiao Lanyuan opened his mouth, his satisfaction and joy overflowed.
"You cleaned it up nicely, there's a reward."
The maids were delighted and bowed, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
They came here to clean up following the housekeeper's instructions. It just so happened that the old man of the Fu family and his family came over and they could clean up while they were talking in the front hall.
I didn't expect to receive a reward from the prince.
This is the first time in all these years that the prince has given gifts and silver to everyone in the mansion, except during the New Year holidays!
The maids were overjoyed.
Fu Zhaoning was a little amused.
With just these two people being "rewarded", she almost saw Xiao Lanyuan opening his screen.
His thoughts were obvious.
"I'm going to take a shower and change my clothes." Fu Zhaoning pulled his hand away.
Although it is not yet evening, I have rushed all the way here and did not stay in a hotel in the city last night. It is also very cold outside and I have not had a shower or changed clothes for a day and a half.
"Let's go soak in the hot springs and get rid of our fatigue." Xiao Lanyuan said.
When talking about getting rid of fatigue, Fu Zhaoning saw a little light in his eyes.
This man——
Is it true that from now on, your mind is no longer on the right path?
"Princess, I will go to prepare it." Hong Zhuo and Fen Xing felt that there was something more between the prince and the princess than before, and just looking at them made them want to smile secretly.
Fu Zhaoning glared at Xiao Lanyuan, asked him to restrain himself, and then went to take a hot spring bath.
After the officials entered the palace and reported to the emperor, they still didn't know what the emperor would do next. Xiao Lanyuan called the secret guards over, explained a few things to them, and asked them to leave.
He looked at the bright red bed and his heart burned.
He ignored other things for the time being, as he was going to consummate his marriage with his princess tonight.
They have been married for almost two years and they haven't gotten married yet. How is this possible?
"My Lord, do you want to take a bath?" A maid came in and asked in a low voice, "Your servant——"
Xiao Lanyuan glanced at her and said, "Get out."
Where did this maid come from? She looks unfamiliar.
"The prince told you to go out. Why are you still standing there? Get out now." A guard came in quickly and shouted at the maid.
This was his other guard, Mo He, who had been handling other matters in the dark before, and after they all left Zhao State, he stayed in Prince Jun's Mansion to take charge of affairs.
Mo He had never met Fu Zhaoning formally before, and this time Xiao Lanyuan decided to ask several of his leaders to meet Fu Zhaoning.
Now there is no barrier between him and her, they are truly a family.
"Your Highness, please forgive me. Some people have been restless recently and forced a few people into the palace." Mo He reported to Xiao Lanyuan in a low voice, "The maid just now was called Qiuyun. She was one of them, and was sent by Concubine Le."
"Le Fei?"
"She is the youngest daughter of the Le family. She has been favored by the emperor for three months since entering the palace. She has been very popular recently. Even the queen has suffered at her hands."
The Le family used to have military generals, but three of them, father and son, died in battle, leaving only the third master Le to hold on to the family. Everyone thought that the family was going to fall into decline and no one cared.
Xiao Lanyuan had never paid attention to the Le family before.
I didn't expect that the Le family could actually make a name for themselves with just Miss Le.
Three months later, she was crowned as a concubine?
He was not in the capital, and before he left, he told them to put aside all matters that were not too extreme and wait for him to come back to deal with them.
I guess this is what happened to the maids who were forced into the palace.
This maid named Qiuyun seems to be restless. She is ready to take action on the first day after she returned.
A cold look flashed across Xiao Lanyuan's eyes.
In the past, he would not allow maids to enter his bedroom casually, and he would not have maids to serve him personally when he washed himself. The "old people" in the mansion all knew this. It was not known whether Qiu Yun really did not know or did it on purpose, but she actually wanted to help him take a bath.
"Have someone guard Youning Courtyard and don't give them the chance to get in the way of the princess." Xiao Lanyuan ordered in a cold voice.
"yes."
If these people made Zhao Ning angry just after he came back, he would be so angry that he would kill someone.
After Qiu Yun walked out for a while, he turned around and looked at Youningyuan.
She finally met Prince Jun.
It was a pity that Prince Jun was wearing a mask, and she didn't know if he really looked like a demon as the rumors said. She was too impatient, so she had to wait a little longer and find out Prince Jun's preferences before taking any action.
Xiao Lanyuan took a quick shower and came out refreshed. It was a long while before Fu Zhaoning came into the room.
She changed into a goose yellow dress, washed her hair and dried it half-dry, draping it on her back like a piece of fine silk, which made her face look as white as jade, her eyes dark and her lips red, and she looked extremely beautiful.
When Xiao Lanyuan saw her like this, his Adam's apple rolled slightly.
He glanced out the window. Damn it, why wasn't it dark yet?
"Ningning, let me help you wipe your hair." He took Fu Zhaoning's hand, let her sit on the couch, took the dry cloth handed to her by Hong Zhuo, stood behind her and carefully wiped her hair.
His long fingers occasionally stroked her neck and brushed across her face.
Hong Zhuo and Fen Xing looked at each other and smiled secretly.
"My Lord, Princess, would you like some snacks first?"
"Go get some." Xiao Lanyuan nodded, "I'll get hungry soon after soaking in the hot springs."
We will have dinner with Old Master Fu and the others in the evening. Let Zhaoning fill his stomach first.
"yes."
Hongzhuo and Fenxing retreated and quickly brought in snacks and hot tea. Seeing that the atmosphere in the room was a little awkward, the two maids retreated with a smirk and closed the door.
Xiao Lanyuan had already dried Fu Zhaoning's hair and came over with clean hands. He saw Fu Zhaoning holding a piece of dessert, which she had already taken a bite of.
He leaned over.
"You want to eat too?" Fu Zhaoning asked.
"Yes, eat it." Xiao Lanyuan said, holding her wrist, and biting the dessert in her hand, and biting down on the corner she had bitten out.
His eyes were fixed on her, with an invasive look.
Fu Zhaoning's heart skipped a beat.
"There's so much left on the plate, do you have to eat my piece?" she asked.
