Chapter 238.3: Wedding Night

This time the servant girls were all dumbstruck. If wangye goes in together with wangfei, how are they going to serve? At least can’t let wangye’s personal servant girls go serve, right? And at this time, they finally noticed, Shi, Ci, Ge, Fu, the four of them, actually not a single one went in. This………..wangye’s servant girls truly were a bit strange. Never mind telling them everything, when wangye returned, they all hid far away. Is this the smokescreen for preventing them from finding out about the true secrets of the qinwang manor, or wanting to paralyze them and then plot some big scheme?

“What are you all standing around for, quickly go have the bed tidied clean.” Gong mama took out clothes for the two of them from the wardrobe and walked into the cleaning room, not at all surprisingly seeing the already carrying on intimately two people.

The crimson wedding dress on Jing Wan was half removed, hanging from the crook of her arm. Her white inner garment was also pulled open, revealing the red dudou inside. The gold phoenix belt was just heartlessly thrown on the ground. Gong mama calmly and indifferently had it picked up, “Wangye, the gugu[1] from the palace has already handed over the yuanpa[2]. Tomorrow, she still needs to have the yuanpa taken back to the palace.”

Getting interrupted when in the mood, this definitely wasn’t a happy thing. Li Hong Yuan gloomily glanced at Gong mama.

Jing Wan was also awkward, hurriedly using the opportunity to back away.

“Wan Wan can bathe here, I’ll wash up at another place.” Right now, it was really easy to get too heated. Having already endured for this long, yet if on the wedding night, still need to fake the yuanpa, then that really would be a big loss.

Li Hong Yuan left. Gong mama served Jing Wan in her bath, and as usual, neither quickly nor slowly treated Jing Wan’s body, loosening her muscles and joints.

By the time Jing Wan came out, there was just a certain someone nonchalantly reading a book in the room dressed in his inner garments with a robe loosely draped on the outside. The beauty under the light really was increasingly attractive the more one looked.

Li Hong Yuan had the book in hand tossed, picking up Jing Wan, and just walked towards the bed, having Jing Wan placed on the bed, conveniently pulling down the bed curtains.

Just hearing Jing Wan cry out in surprise, and immediately after, just wuwuwuu sounds, “……….Wangye, you’re not drunk?”

“A bit, but right now already sobered up. Already knew that they would try to drown me with wine, so took an alcohol dissipating pill beforehand. Just based on them, still thinking of blocking this prince from the bridal chamber? Waited for this night for that long already, so how can one miss it?”

Gong mama opened the cleaning room’s side door, letting someone have the water lifted out and have the cleaning room tidied up cleanly. She then closed the side door tightly and headed out into the bedroom, hearing the interwoven sounds of high and low moaning and panting. She went and placed down the layer of drapery outside the babu bed before finally heading out to the outer room.

Not only the dragon and phoenix wedding candles by the bed were lit, but the other candles in the room were all shining too.

Drench in sweat, Li Hong Yuan was being as gentle as possible, “……..Wan Wan, good darling, endure a little.”

“En.” Jing Wan was on her back, her head raised backwards, her neck stretched to the extreme. This trial must be cleared, and this hardship must be endured.

But when it really came time…………..it still made Jing Wan scream out.

Li Hong Yuan didn’t dare to continue anymore, endlessly kissing and comforting her, yet he himself painstakingly endured. The pea-sized beads of sweat slid onto Jing Wan drop by drop. Jing Wan’s fingernails left behind a streak on his back.

Jing Wan tried her best to relax her own body, “Ah Yuan, it’s okay now.”

In reality, the signal her body was sending out was actually ‘not okay’, but neither advancing nor retreating like this, no one was well. Li Hong Yuan hardened his heart…………….

Such disturbance in the room, it was impossible for the outside to not be able to hear, especially Gong mama, having their words all heard clearly. She lightly furrowed her brows, still don’t know how big of a hardship mis……..wangfei will have to suffer tonight.

On the contrary, that gugu to the side didn’t hear very clearly, but still knew that this was gradually entering the most pleasant stage, giddily smiling, “This time, her Highness noble consort can finally rest assured. All these years, hoping day and night, just wishing for there to be an intimate person to take care of wangye. And Luo third miss………peh peh, look at this mouth of mine, right now, should address as wangfei. To get conferred on the day of the wedding, even since the founding of Qi Yuan, wangfei is still the first one.”

Gong mama faintly nodded, but didn’t reply. Rather, it was Jing Wan’s wet nurse that kept feeling it wasn’t good to ignore. That was someone by miss’s mother-in-law’s side. What if they make things difficult for miss? Thinking to here, she worked up her spirit and warmly began chatting with the other party.

Less than an hour later, Li Hong Yuan asked for the first water.

Li Hong Yuan sat in the bathtub holding Jing Wan. Unknown as to when, a jade bottle appeared in his hand. Pouring out a pill, he dissolved it into the water. “Wan Wan, this is medicine used for birth control. I already let many people test it before. Towards the body, there won’t be any harm. Right now, you’re still young, your bones not fully grown out. Let’s wait another two years before having children. Moreover, right now, I can’t and further don’t want to have children. Like your older brother and sister-in-law, getting pregnant with a child immediately after marrying, I absolutely won’t allow it. You can only be mine, no one is allowed to steal your attention. Don’t blame me…………”

Jing Wan’s eyes glistened as she looked to him, suddenly reaching out to hook his neck, and closing in for a kiss. Aiyaa, this man, at this very moment, really was very much to one’s liking. Moreover, to even be jealous of a child that doesn’t even exist, seemingly was also a bit cute.

Towards something that was voluntarily offered, the hungry wolf that was still far from being satisfied naturally won’t hold back.

Moreover, with the misgivings gone, they directly messed around once in the bathtub. Then, after changing the water again, they finally came out.

The bed had already been tidied and cleaned. Gong mama had the yuanpa collected and stored away properly.

From the start to now, already more than an hour had passed, so after returning to the bed, most likely will rest. But, that gugu from the palace, not long after, just knew that she was too naive, dryly laughing, “This stamina of wangye’s sure is good.”

Asking for the water for the third time, that was only given………..

Afterwards, they finally settled down.

Jing Wan was truly too tired. When Li Hong Yuan had her carried back to the bed, she was already asleep.

With Jing Wan in his arms, Li Hong Yuan was always able to very quickly fall asleep. However, this time, it wasn’t as peaceful as before. He had a dream, dreaming of one of the most profound memories of his past life……………..

He had already recovered from his injuries, having the only remaining tenderness hidden in the deepest depths of his heart. He abandoned all his kindness, even giving up on human nature. He vowed that he will snatch over that seat that he never once thought about before in the past. For the sake of achieving his goal, he was unscrupulous in his means, sinister schemes and machinations emerged more and more, his hands filled with fresh blood, his heart, liver, and lungs all got dyed pitch black, plotting step by step, and afterwards, headed back to the capital.

He no longer was that Li Hong Yuan that can easily be schemed against, and taken advantage of by everyone. Even if what he faced wasn’t just his brothers’ suppression, but further his old man wanting to directly put him to death, and even if surrounded by perils, facing the song of Chu on all sides, losing soldiers and generals, he still forcibly endured.

Fu Yun Ting bitterly struggled in battle at the borders for more than a year, but in the end, no longer had the power to continue holding on. In front were ‘masters of wolves and tigers[3]‘, at his side were the old, weak, and crippled, and behind him, there were no rations to go on. After a great defeat in battle, he just got pinned the crime of treason, and was escorted back to the capital and thrown into prison.

At this time, the former Luo family third miss, the current Wu’an Marquis Fu Yun Ting’s wife, and also the woman that made him thoroughly change, and made his heart move, came looking, letting him save Wu’an Marquis’s nephew and niece.

He knew that she was already at a dead end. Of the entire Wu’an Marquis Manor, only she still hasn’t been caught and thrown into prison. She originally can not return, and if she’s willing, she can conceal her identity, and once he ascends the throne…………….

But she still came back, knowing full well that once discovered, she will immediately be detained.

She knew that saving Fu Yun Ting was impossible. In fact, she didn’t even mention a single word of. She just wanted to preserve the Fu family’s bloodline.

Li Hong Yuan was unable to restrain his anger. He was angry at her for not only abandoning everything for the sake of that man, but now, can even disregard her own life. And he further hated Fu Yun Ting out of jealousy for being able to obtain such a woman. He even wanted to charge into the imperial prison and directly have the person chopped up.

“You think, by saving this prince once, you can just exchange for two lives?”

Fu Yun Ting originally had two nephews and one niece, but because when getting detained, one of them was sick, and because he didn’t get treated, in less than two days, just died in prison.

Jing Wan however didn’t resent him, “This criminal wife right now has nothing at all, so for what will wangye be willing to save them? As long as this criminal wife can accomplish, the mountains of daggers and seas of flames are all not a problem.”

Li Hong Yuan coldly sneered, mockingly stating, “That isn’t necessary, just use yourself to exchange.”

He saw her two eyes that after experiencing the wind and frost, became exceptionally resolute and unwavering, and didn’t easily reveal her emotions, reveal shock and disbelief, and afterwards, gradually returned to tranquility, “Okay.” Not dragging in the mud nor carrying water in the slightest, and further didn’t ask him why.

It was precisely this kind of her that made him even more angry.

But, he had no way of rejecting her. At night, she bathed and changed, and just climbed onto his bed.

His heart both ached and resented. Every time, he wanted to torment her, but when actually going about it, he would always subconsciously lighten his strength. However……………He suddenly widened his eyes, “You two have been married for almost two years, yet you still haven’t consummated the marriage?”

[1] Gugu – older palace maid

[2] 元帕 – Yuanpa, the handkerchief used to catch the blood from the first time to prove that the bride is a virgin

[3] 虎狼之师 – Meaning a powerful army
