Jin Jinzhi frowned. "Yes, I can't wait to see Duoduo, but Duoduo definitely won't like the smell of alcohol on me."
"I'll just take a bath and then go."
...
Inside the bedroom, Yun Duoduo saw that it was already dark and the mansion was not as noisy as it had been in the afternoon, so she sat down by the window and covered herself with her veil.
[My brother Sumire should be here soon.]
Just then, the bedroom door was pushed open.
The veil blocked Yun Duoduo's view, but through the gap in the veil she could see a person in a red robe slowly approaching her.
Jin Jinzhi, dressed in wedding attire, stood before her like a god.
In the stories, the princes are all virtuous and averse to beautiful women. On their wedding night, they are not tempted by beauty and go to sleep alone in their study.
But she knew that Jin Jinzhi was not that kind of person.
"Wow, the Princess's meals are quite good!"
Jin Jinzhi glanced at the braised pork knuckle and the leftover cakes on the table.
Jin Jinzhi spoke softly, and seeing that she did not answer, she slowly lifted the veil on her head and then lifted it off.
Yun Duoduo looked up at him, his eyes were full of tenderness and joy, and she was slightly lost in thought as she listened to his gentle voice.
Her tall figure and broad, sturdy chest made her look extremely elegant in the bright red wedding dress. Although she looked cold when she wasn't smiling, her voice was very gentle.
"I, the king, have finally waited for this day."
Jin Jinzhi looked at Yun Duoduo. Today, Yun Duoduo was wearing a bright red wedding dress. She had toned down her usual arrogance and was much more gentle and virtuous.
Her face was fair and delicate, her eyes were big and watery, her eyebrows were long and thin and distinct, and... her soft and luscious red lips.
Jin Jinzhi sat down next to Yun Duoduo, getting close to her, her warm breath brushing against her neck.
Yun Duoduo's heart began to race, and she grasped the hand that was reaching for his waist.
Jin Jinzhi paused, her hand still in the distance, and smiled, "So, you get nervous sometimes too."
"Don't be afraid, there's no one else in this courtyard, just the two of us."
He felt something uncomfortable under his buttocks, reached down and pulled out a book. He was just about to say that the princess was so diligent that she was still reading on her wedding night.
When he saw the book title, he smiled, and the smile grew wider and wider.
"Your Highness, do you enjoy reading this kind of book?"
Yun Duoduo panicked. That silly girl of hers! She'd only looked around for a moment; how could she have forgotten to put it in the cupboard?!
"Instead of reading books like this, how about I take you to experience it for yourself?"
Hearing Jin Jinzhi's words, Yun Duoduo felt a tingling sensation all over her body.
Jin Jinzhi picked up Yun Duoduo and let her sit on his lap.
"Duoduo?"
"ah?"
"Do you know how long I've waited for this day?"
Jin Jinzhi rubbed the tip of Yun Duoduo's nose with the tip of her nose, then brushed it across her lips and neck, moving downwards.
Yun Duoduo was tense all over, letting Jin Jinzhi untie her wedding dress layer by layer.
An impatient, eager, and tender kiss landed on Yun Duoduo's lips.
The scalding heat made Yun Duoduo feel as if she had been electrocuted. Under Jin Jinzhi's touch, her body gradually went limp, and she lost all strength.
The man's pleasant fragrance stimulated her senses, and she clung to his waist as if grasping at a lifeline.
Their breaths mingled tightly, and his rapid breathing made all her senses extremely sensitive.
"Duoduo, do you know how much I love you?"
"From now on, I will love you with my heart and my life."
Yun Duoduo felt a weight on her body as she hooked her arms around Jin Jinzhi's neck.
"If it hurts, just cry out."
Before Yun Duoduo could speak, Jin Jinzhi sealed her lips with his, sucking on them.
He kissed her ears and neck.
"Don't be nervous, take your time, we have plenty of time..."
The candlelight in the bedroom grew dimmer and dimmer. The two held hands tightly, their shadows pressed closer and closer against the wall, swaying constantly.
...
In the backyard of the Prince of Jibei's mansion, shouts seemed to be coming from the bedroom.
The maids and servants in the backyard were all cleared out, leaving only a few guards standing on the roof.
The head of the guards, standing on the rooftop, whispered the order: "Shut up!"
The guards immediately covered their ears to prevent themselves from hearing any noise from inside the bedroom, while their eyes remained alert, watching their master's safety.
...
The front courtyard of the Prince of Jibei's mansion gradually quieted down as Yan Ying and Military Advisor Cao saw off the last minister, who was completely drunk.
"Oh dear, I'm exhausted!"
Hong Qiu'er plopped down on the ground, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and rubbed her shoulders and waist with a distressed expression.
"Welcoming and seeing off people like this is more tiring than chopping a hundred cabbages in the army!"
"Everyone has been seen off. I'll go and tell the Prince!"
"I need to go back to the barracks to sleep; the beds here are too soft, I can't sleep!"
As Hong Qiu'er spoke, she stood up noisily and strode towards the backyard.
"Go report to the Prince? Fatty Hong, do you have a death wish?!"
Yan Xiang looked at Hong Qiu'er as if she were a fool, and he quickly grabbed Hong Qiu'er.
"His Highness is currently enjoying his wedding night in the bedroom. Are you going to knock on the door and disturb his and his wife's intimate moment?"
Hong Qiu'er was taken aback. He felt that what Yan Ying said made sense, but there were strict disciplines and rules in the army. He looked at Yan Ying with some difficulty.
"Well, I don't want to disturb Your Highness and Princess either."
Hong Qiu'er hesitated for a moment, "But there are military rules. I came to the Prince's mansion with a military order, and I will naturally need a military order to leave as well."
Hong Qiu'er scratched her head, ran her fingers through her hair, and blinked her big eyes at Yan Ying. "I left without the Prince's orders. Won't the Prince punish me?"
Yan Ying patted Hong Qiu'er on the shoulder, "If you ask me, you should just go back directly. There's no need to report to the Prince!"
"Believe me, if you disturb the prince now, you might not even see the sun rise tomorrow!"
Upon hearing this, Hong Qiu'er was so frightened that she wet herself and tried to run away from the Prince of Jibei's mansion.
Just as he turned to leave, he heard voices behind him.
"You adults have worked hard. We have prepared some hangover soup. Please drink the hangover soup before you rest."
Ah Xiang and Qing Dai stood in front of the two men, holding a bowl of hangover soup.
Hong Qiu'er blinked at A Xiang. He recognized her; they had met and spoken during the wedding procession.
At the time, he was puzzled. This woman was really brave, just like him, and very loyal to her master.
"Lord Hong, I apologize for what happened during the day. Ah Xiang didn't recognize you as the commander of the Zhenbei Armory."
"I apologize if my words have been offensive, Commander Hong."
