Chapter 552: Dream Come True

"His Majesty."

The maids bowed respectfully.

Di Jiang waved his hand and said, "Alright, everyone go down and claim your rewards."

"No need to serve today."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

All the servants had left, and only Dijiang and Jiujiu were left in the huge bridal chamber.

Dijiang came to Jiujiu, lifted her red veil and looked at her expectantly. As a result, he saw that under the red veil, Jiujiu... Jiujiu fell asleep with her head tilted, and seemed to be sleeping very soundly.

Dijiang: “…”

Fell asleep?

Fell asleep?

Just fell asleep like that?

Well, well, there is still one gift to be completed.

Di Jiang was depressed for a long time, but finally accepted the fact. He gently helped Jiujiu take off her shoes, took away her phoenix crown, and let her lie comfortably on the bed and have a good sleep.

Jiujiu didn't wake up until dawn the next day.

Dijiang didn't have to attend the morning court today, so naturally he stayed with Jiujiu until he fell asleep. He had woken up long ago and had been waiting for Jiujiu.

When Jiujiu opened her eyes, she saw an extremely handsome face standing right in front of her, staring at her intently, with a look of grievance and joy in his eyes.

Jiujiu saw that it was already bright outside and Dijiang was also wearing undergarments, so she understood what was going on.

She laughed and said, "Brother Dijiang, I..."

Di Jiang interrupted: "You fell asleep last night."

"Yeah." Jiujiu nodded, and accidentally saw that the collar of Dijiang's red undershirt was slightly open, revealing his strong and powerful chest.

Jiujiu: “…”

[Who dresses like this? ]

[I suspect Brother Dijiang did it on purpose.]

Dijiang smiled in his heart, looked at Jiujiu like a wolf, and said: "Jiujiu, today..."

Jiujiu asked: "What happened today?"

"You're not tired today, so make up for what you need to make up for."

Dijiang said as he put the red veil back on Jiujiu and asked her to sit up. After she was seated, he picked up the red veil again.

After Jiujiu put on the red veil, she started laughing because of Dijiang's serious look, and her body shook with laughter.

After Dijiang lifted the red veil, he saw Jiujiu smiling, exactly as he had imagined last night. This scene had appeared in his dreams countless times and made him wake up with a smile countless times.

His dream finally came true.

“Ninety-nine…”

"Brother Dijiang."

.

A man followed the wedding procession.

This person did not come here openly. He was worried about being discovered and taken back, and even more worried about being persuaded to leave after showing his face. So he hid in a clothes box and secretly followed to the South Country.

This person is none other than the Emperor Emeritus.

When Jiujiu got married, his entire reaction was like that of an old naughty boy, extremely naughty.

Little did they know that after the wedding procession from the Southern Kingdom left, Xi Chu had been looking frantically for the retired emperor.

At this moment, the palace servants of the Southern Kingdom were unaware that the retired emperor had followed them. They were sorting out the ten miles of red makeup so that they could compile a list and classify it for storage.

But as they were sorting, they suddenly heard a box being kicked, and it wasn't someone outside who kicked it, but someone inside the box.

"Manager Zhou, there's something in here."

The little palace maid was just about to take off the red flower tied on the box when she heard the kick and saw the box shake. She turned pale with fright, hopped like a rabbit, and hurriedly hid behind the steward.

Manager Zhou was a eunuch, not very old, about thirty years old, but he had experienced a lot in the palace. He did not believe in evil and was not afraid of ghosts, so naturally he was not scared by the things in the box.

He approached the box inquiringly, looked at the box that made the noise and said, "There should be a person hiding in this box."

"But who?"

"If he were a normal person, he would have come with the wedding procession openly and honestly. There would be no need to hide in this box in a sneaky way. Unless he is a person who cannot stand in the light of day."

"Could it be that our Majesty secretly brought a beauty with him? He didn't want to be discovered by the princess, no no no, the queen, so he hid her here?"

Manager Zhou is a man with a rich imagination and is particularly good at getting things done. He knows how to make things good for you, for me, and for everyone.

He did not immediately open the box to see who was inside, nor did he allow anyone else to open it. Instead, he sent his trusted confidant to guard it. He went to see the emperor alone, explained the matter to him, and let the emperor make the decision.

He came to Dijiang's bedroom, Longyu Palace, and asked to see Dijiang.

It was almost noon now. Dijiang and Jiujiu had just finished their last ceremony. They were lying there exhausted, chatting incoherently.

Chu Yang stood at the door and informed Di Jiang that Manager Zhou wanted to see him.

Dijiang glanced at Jiujiu who had just spoken but now fell asleep again, then he gently turned over and got up, went to the hot spring pool at the back to take a bath, changed his clothes, came outside, and asked unhappily, "What's the matter?"

Chu Yang saw that Di Jiang looked unhappy and regretted coming here.

He lowered his head and said, "Manager Zhou asked to see you. He said he had something important to tell Your Majesty."

Di Jiang pinched his brows and said, "...Bring it up."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Chuyang brought the person up.

Just outside the bedroom, Manager Zhou told Di Jiang that there was someone in the box, and he spoke in a sneaky and meaningful way.

The more Di Jiang listened, the more uncomfortable he felt, not to mention the Jiujiu in it.

Jiujiu woke up as soon as Dijiang got up, but she was tired, so she didn't get up with him. Instead, she continued to sleep and didn't fall asleep, so she heard all this.

Brother Dijiang actually hid someone?

They just got married and he’s already hiding someone?

Jiujiu lost her sleepiness instantly. She got up, washed, and dressed, then followed Manager Zhou to the warehouse he had just mentioned.

She wanted to see what kind of person Brother Dijiang was hiding.

Dijiang was also curious, 'What kind of person is he hiding?'

At this moment, Di Jiang was standing next to the box that Manager Zhou pointed to, looking at it with vigilance and curiosity. Who was inside?

Dijiang also heard a slight snoring sound coming from inside.

Jiujiu stood behind a pillar not far behind Dijiang, quietly observing who it was.

Jiujiu was very uneasy. Her mind told her that she should trust Brother Dijiang. Brother Dijiang only had her in his heart and would never let her down. However, the facts before her made her unable to stop thinking about it.

Which good person would hide in a box and be brought here?

Brother Dijiang also came to see it in person.

There must be a problem.

Jiujiu has thought it through. If it really is a woman, then, then, then...

What should I do?

Are they going to divorce right after the wedding? Or are they going to run back to Western Chu? Are they going to complain to their father, the emperor, and their mother?

If that were the case, my father and mother would surely be worried to death.

Forget it, just watch it first and decide what to do after you see it clearly.

Dijiang had already ordered people to open the box. The box was not locked and opened easily. The person who was curled up and sleeping on a pile of clothes inside also revealed his true face.

After Jiujiu saw clearly who was inside, her heart finally settled down.

Just a little surprised.

"Father actually followed me in this way?"

"What an old naughty boy."
