The unfinished words were replaced by cries of pain.
Jiang Li's face suddenly turned pale, her hands grabbing the bed sheet clenched violently, and tears instantly filled her eyes.
It hurts so much!! Shen Tingsi wiped away her tears with eyes full of heartache.
But now the arrow was on the string and had to be shot. He comforted Jiang Li to divert her attention, and then hardened his heart.
Snap——
Paraffin wax drips into candle flames, and blood stains the white handkerchief.
The couple's ceremony is complete.
——
The next day.
The blinding sunlight came in through the window.
Jiang Li frowned and raised her hands to cover her eyes. She wanted to turn over and continue sleeping, but her whole body felt like it was falling apart and she couldn't move.
The scenes from last night came to Jiang Li's mind. She suddenly opened her eyes and lost all her sleepiness in an instant! The first thing Jiang Li did when she opened her eyes was to lift the quilt and look inside. When she saw the dense red marks on her body, her face suddenly turned red! After tossing and turning until the second half of the night, Jiang Li couldn't bear it anymore and fainted.
I howled so hard last night that my throat is so dry and sore now.
"green……"
Jiang Li was about to call Qingzhu, but was startled when she heard her own hoarse and dull voice.
Qiao Qingzhu came from outside the hall and ran in excitedly after seeing Jiang Li pinching her neck.
"Miss, you are awake! Are you hungry? I will have someone serve the food right away!"
Qingzhu was about to leave as she spoke, and Jiang Li, whose throat was dry and sore, waved at her.
Qingzhu saw this and ran over: "Miss, what do you want?"
Jiang Li, who was in so much pain that she couldn't speak, pointed at her throat. Qing Zhu gestured and quickly ran to the side to pour her a glass of warm water.
The warm water flowed across my throat, finally relieving some of the dry pain in my throat.
"water."
Jiang Li said a word in a hoarse voice.
After hearing Jiang Li's voice, Qing Zhu widened her eyes in shock: "Miss, what's wrong with your throat?"
Jiang Li didn't explain, but just waved her hand and asked Qingzhu to pour another glass of water.
After drinking three cups of warm water, Jiang Li's throat finally felt better.
"Miss, do you still want to drink?"
Jiang Li shook her head: "What time is it?"
"Miss, it's already 9 o'clock."
Jiang Li's pupils suddenly shrank: "Si Shi? Quick, change your clothes!"
Oh my god! I slept until 11 o'clock on my first day in the palace! How shameful, how shameful!
Thinking of the promise she made last night to have breakfast with the Queen Mother today, Jiang Li quickly asked Qingzhu to help her change clothes.
Seeing Jiang Li's anxious face, Qingzhu also became anxious and ran to the side to get the palace dress that the palace maid had sent this morning.
When Qingzhu returned to the inner hall with the palace dress, Jiang Li had already sat up from the bed, and the dense red marks on her body were exposed as she stood up.
Qingzhu's pupils suddenly shrank and she stood there in a daze holding the palace dress.
"What are you standing there for? Come here."
Jiang Li turned her head and urged, and Qing Zhu nodded blankly at her urging, and walked over with a shocked look on his face.
Although Qingzhu had not experienced much, as Jiang Li's personal maid, the teacher had already told her these things before Jiang Li got married.
It's just that Jiang Li had never consummated her marriage with Zhou Qingyuan before, and Qingzhu put the matter behind him over time.
Foolishly, she didn't think about it after learning that Shen Tingsi stayed overnight in Fengyi Palace. Only after seeing the dense red marks on Jiang Li's body did she belatedly remember this.
Qingzhu came to the bed with horror in his heart to help Jiang Li change her clothes. The red marks on Jiang Li's neck and shoulders were shocking enough to make Qingzhu, but after Jiang Li stood up, Qingzhu finally experienced what stimulation was! ! Jiang Li's neck, chest and even back were all covered with ambiguous red marks, which made Qingzhu blush! This, this, this! !
Qingzhu quickly changed Jiang Li into a palace dress, and then did her makeup and hair. Her face was flushed throughout the whole process!
"Miss, your hair is done."
Jiang Li looked at herself in the glasses, then pulled her collar up to cover the ambiguity around her neck.
Jiang Li nodded: "Let's go to Shoukang Palace to pay respects to the Queen Mother."
Qingzhu held her arm, and suddenly thought of something and said to Jiang Li: "Miss, please wait a moment. Madam has something for me to give to you!"
"My mother?"
Jiang Li was a little surprised. Her mother didn't tell her that she had anything to give her before she left.
Qingzhu ran to the cabinet nearby, rummaged around, and finally found the book that had been hidden at the bottom of the cabinet.
"Miss, this is it! Madam told me to give this booklet to you when the time is right!"
Qingzhu has always kept Jiang's mother's instructions in mind, and the so-called ripe time refers to after Jiang Li consummates her marriage.
Now that the young lady has consummated her marriage with His Majesty, it's time to take out this booklet! Qing Zhu thought so and handed the booklet in his hand to Jiang Li.
Jiang Li did not doubt it, raised her hand to take the booklet, and opened it to take a look curiously.
After seeing the little man in the ambiguous posture above, his eyes widened suddenly, and he threw the booklet to the ground as if he had picked up a hot potato! Such a violent reaction scared Qingzhu. Qingzhu patted his chest and asked in confusion: "Miss, what's wrong with you?"
Jiang Li calmed herself down and said, "No, it's okay."
Qingzhu looked at her suspiciously, bent down to pick up the booklet on the ground, and was about to open it to find out what was inside -
“Don’t, don’t look!”
Jiang Li quickly spoke out to stop him, scaring Qingzhu so much that he trembled and almost dropped the book in his hand to the ground again.
"No, no, I won't look at it. Miss, please don't get excited."
Qingzhu tightly grasped the booklet in his hand and quickly shook his head at Jiang Li.
Jiang Li took a deep breath to calm herself down: "Let's go and pay our respects to the Queen Mother."
Qingzhu raised the book in his hand in front of him and asked tentatively: "Miss, what about this book?"
Jiang Li snatched the booklet from Qing Zhu's hand, looked around, and finally opened the drawer in front of the dressing table and stuffed the shameful booklet in! After calming down, Jiang Li and Qing Zhu left Fengyi Palace and headed towards Shoukang Palace.
The Queen Mother was currently teasing a parrot, which was specially found by Shen Tingsi and given to the Queen Mother to entertain her.
As the Queen Mother grew older, she loved these gadgets and fed the parrots herself every day.
“Happy, happy!”
When the Queen Mother was teasing the parrot, the parrot suddenly spoke a few words.
The Queen Mother laughed and said, "Even a little fellow like you can see how I feel?"
The little parrot kept smacking its lips and repeating the same words, which made the Queen Mother laugh out loud.
"Her Majesty the Queen Mother, the Queen is here to pay her respects!"
A palace servant came hurriedly from outside the hall. When the empress dowager heard Jiang Li coming, she threw the bird bell in her hand aside and turned to look outside the hall.
"May the Empress Dowager be blessed with good health."
Jiang Li, supported by Qing Zhu, appeared in the empress dowager's sight. The master and servant bowed together to pay their respects to the empress dowager.
"Li'er is here."
The moment she saw Jiang Li, the Queen Mother laughed so hard that her eyes disappeared.
"Get up quickly."
The Queen Mother walked up to Jiang Li and helped her up herself.
Jiang Li bowed again: "Thank you, Queen Mother."
The Queen Mother held her hand and joked with a smile: "Is it time for Li'er to change her tune?"
