Chapter 353 Wedding Night
Madam Luo looked at her proudly, "Sister Ran is capable. If you were a man, you would definitely be made a marquis and become a prime minister!"
A surge of excitement rose in Lu Zhiran's heart.
The last time she got married, she felt exhausted both physically and mentally, and time seemed to pass by incomparably long and slow.
This time, she was prepared to endure it slowly, but unexpectedly, everything was very different.
Before she even had time to feel tired, the auspicious moment arrived.
The matchmaker quickly covered her with a red veil. Her vision was blocked, but her hearing and sense of touch became extremely sensitive.
Xiao Yanci came to pick up the bride on a tall horse.
During the door-blocking stage, no one from the Lu family dared to really make things difficult for Xiao Yanci, and he passed it quickly.
Each of them held one end of the red cloth and walked to the main hall to bid farewell to their elders.
Originally, Lu Zhiran needed to bid farewell to Lu Guanxuan and Fang. Although she was reluctant, she had to comply with the ceremony.
But now that Mr. and Mrs. Luo have arrived, there are two more people sitting in the seats for the elders.
Lu Zhiran's farewell was much more sincere.
Although she was unable to see her grandfather, Lu Zhiran couldn't help but tear up when she heard his old and slightly trembling voice.
After thanking his elders, Lu Juncheng carried Lu Zhiran on his back into the bridal sedan.
The young man was thin and his back was not broad enough, but his steps were steady.
After getting on the bridal sedan, it began to parade. Lu Zhiran sat upright in the sedan and could even hear the words of gratitude from the people.
Under the veil, the corners of Lu Zhiran's lips curled up slightly.
Getting off the sedan chair, entering the house, worshipping in the hall, and entering the bridal chamber, everything went smoothly.
Xiao Yanci used the jade ruyi to lift the veil, and Lu Zhiran's vision suddenly became wider. She could see the whole situation in the bridal chamber, and she couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
The layout here is clearly identical to that of Yaoguang Pavilion. It's easy to tell who ordered this.
Her eyes met the man in front of her, and her heart was stirred again.
The man was dressed in a bright red wedding suit, which made his figure look as slender as a pine or bamboo. His originally hard and cold face was now a little warmer and gentler because of his joy.
He looked at Lu Zhiran with burning eyes. He had clearly not drunk any alcohol yet, but he seemed to be a little tipsy.
The bridesmaid brought a silver pot with a lotus pattern and poured the nectar into a pair of white jade cups.
"Princess, please."
His voice was slightly hoarse, and he put his arm around hers. Their breaths blended together, and the aroma of wine mixed with the fragrance of osmanthus in her sleeves was even more intoxicating than the fine wine in the glass.
Lu Zhiran's eyelashes trembled slightly. As she drank, she caught a glimpse of his Adam's apple rolling. A drop of wine accidentally slipped down his neck and sank into his collar.
Lu Zhiran's ears turned red for no apparent reason.
The bridesmaid congratulated loudly: "We are married together, and we will be together forever!"
The two of them crossed their arms and separated. The man's strong presence disappeared, and Lu Zhiran breathed a sigh of relief.
Xiao Yanci's eyes were fixed on her, "I will be back soon."
Lu Zhiran's face tightened when he looked at her, and she responded with a dignified smile.
As soon as he left, everyone dared to speak.
Cui Fu and Dan Yan couldn't suppress their excitement.
"Miss, the prince has decorated the bridal chamber exactly like the Yaoguang Pavilion, which shows how much he values you."
Nanny Jin was also happy, but she scolded the two maids with a fierce face, "It's time to change your words. This is the prince's palace, we must be more careful with our words and actions. If we make a mistake, it will be the princess who loses face."
The two of them immediately straightened their expressions.
At this time, two maids from the palace came in and bowed respectfully.
"Princess, the prince has asked me to prepare a bath for you. Would you like to change and bathe now?"
Only then did Lu Zhiran realize the heaviness on her body, and she nodded immediately.
After taking off her complicated clothes, removing the hairpins and jewelry, and washing off the rouge and powder on her face, she finally felt much lighter.
Without waiting for her to give any instructions, someone brought in a table full of food, all of which were her favorites.
Cui Fu and Dan Yan were even more satisfied with Xiao Yanci as their son-in-law.
They couldn't help but think that this marriage was much better than the last one.
Last time, the young lady had to wait until late at night with heavy clothes and hair accessories on her head and with an empty stomach.
In the end, they received urgent news from Xiping. Chu Yian left their young lady behind to go to the battlefield, and only had time to leave a few words of explanation.
Now, they were actually thankful that the urgent news from the border had prevented their young lady from becoming a real wife of the Chu family.
As Lu Zhiran ate the table full of delicacies, the emptiness in her stomach was filled, and her heart was also filled to the brim.
She enjoyed her first meal in Prince Jin's mansion very much. Her dowry was also treated well, and everyone had a smile on their face.
The red candles were burning brightly, and the new house was filled with the scent of agarwood.
After eating and drinking, and washing up, Lu Zhiran felt vaguely sleepy.
I got up early today and didn't rest the whole day. Now, my body has finally reached its limit.
But today is her wedding night, she can't sleep, so she can only stay awake.
Seeing that she looked very tired and had yawned several times in succession while sitting for a while, Nanny Jin felt very distressed.
Although she knew it was against the rules, Nanny Jin still had selfish motives.
"If you are sleepy, Princess, you can take a short nap. I will call you when the prince returns."
Lu Zhiran shook her head, "No."
After all, this is the palace, and she can't act recklessly just because of Xiao Yanci's leniency.
Unexpectedly, when Nanny Gao entered the bridal chamber and saw how tired she looked, she actually advised her to rest for a while.
"Serving the prince is a big deal. If the princess doesn't get enough rest, how can she serve him wholeheartedly?"
Lu Zhiran immediately understood and her face turned red.
She stopped refusing and lay down, but she repeatedly reminded them to call her when the prince returned.
Lu Zhiran was so tired that she fell asleep as soon as she touched the pillow, without any habit of being attached to her bed.
This sleep was so deep and sweet.
She was a little afraid of the cold and needed to use a hot water bottle to warm her feet every time she went to bed.
In the past, in the second half of the night, when the hot water bottle became cold, she would wake up from the cold.
But this time, she was not woken up by the cold, because her hot water bottle did not become cold, but was very warm.
She subconsciously moved closer to the source of warmth, and her whole body felt warm, and she slept very comfortably.
In the second half of the night, she was even woken up by the heat.
When I opened my eyes in a daze, I found myself being held tightly in someone's arms, and that was where the endless warmth came from.
After a few moments of slow thinking, Lu Zhiran finally realized what day it was.
She almost tensed up.
She actually fell asleep on her wedding night!
Why don’t they call themselves!
Xiao Yanci didn't even call her and just let her sleep like that.
Lu Zhiran's mind was in a mess, and she didn't know whether she should wake up or continue pretending to be asleep.
The man's embrace was so hot that even Lu Zhiran, who was afraid of cold, broke out in a sweat. She moved uncomfortably.
Unexpectedly, the man woke up when she moved slightly.
He was sleepy and his voice was a little hoarse.
"woke up?"
Lu Zhiran could feel his chest shaking when he spoke, and that strong sense of aggression came over her again.
She hesitated for two breaths, wondering whether to continue pretending to be asleep.
But running away at the critical moment was not a good idea, so she said "hmm" softly.
