Chapter 225 The night of flowers and candles in the bridal chamber
The queen's face turned ugly after hearing what Concubine De said. She thought to herself that Concubine De was clearly hinting at her for killing Prince Xiao's mother.
But she remained calm on the surface and responded with a smile: "Prince Wu'an sacrificed his life for his country, so he deserves respect. I have always been very caring towards Prince Xiao, but seeing him so happy today, I couldn't help but think of him."
Concubine De sneered: "Thinking of old friends? Your Majesty is not afraid of nightmares!"
The queen's face turned extremely ugly after hearing this. She widened her eyes, glared at Concubine De, and shouted sharply, "Shut up!"
However, De Fei did not take it seriously. Instead, she sneered and responded sarcastically, "Shut up? No way! I came here specially for this wedding banquet today! If I shut my mouth, how can I enjoy these delicious dishes? Your Majesty, don't you agree? Haha..."
Seeing that the queen had a gloomy face, she continued: "But speaking of it, your Majesty, you seem to be a little irritable recently! Is it because you are about to have a grandson and are too excited? You must take good care of yourself and don't get sick from anger! After your grandson is born, you will have to take good care of him! Hahaha!" After saying that, Defei laughed uncontrollably.
After hearing what Concubine De said, the Queen was stunned for a moment, then a mocking smile appeared on her face: "Oh! I forgot to congratulate Concubine De! After the Third Prince marries the foreign princess Hu Yanzhuozhuo, he will definitely give birth to a good-looking and special foreign grandson for you! But... the position of the crown prince of Dazhao will probably never allow the existence of foreign blood! Tsk tsk tsk tsk..."
The Queen's tone was full of disdain and sarcasm, which made Concubine De tremble with anger. She stared at the Queen with wide eyes, as if she was about to overturn the table.
Seeing this, Xianfei, who was standing next to Defei, quickly reminded her softly, "The newlyweds are coming over to toast!"
Concubine De took a deep breath, suppressed her anger, and glared at the queen fiercely. She knew that now was not the time to lose her temper, so she had to swallow her anger for the time being.
Seeing this, the Queen raised her lips slightly and sneered. She sat there complacently, her eyes revealing a kind of arrogance and confidence. It was as if she was telling Concubine De that she was the master of the palace and no one could challenge her authority.
After Xiao Jinghan and Luo Lingyue's wedding ceremony was grandly held in the imperial palace, they returned to Wu'an Palace in a gorgeous sedan chair.
At this time, the palace was decorated with lights and full of joy. Several brothers of the Luo family and people of the An family had been waiting here, ready to make a scene in the bridal chamber to add to the festive atmosphere. However, when they saw the bride and groom, they were stopped by Luo Lingfeng with a smile.
"Everyone! A night of spring is worth a thousand gold. Tonight is a wonderful time for the two newlyweds! Let's not disturb them!" Luo Lingfeng said loudly, causing everyone to laugh.
Everyone understood what was going on and left the scene noisily, leaving Xiao Jinghan and Luo Lingyue alone.
At this time, Luo Lingfeng quietly walked to Xiao Jinghan, handed him a small and exquisite porcelain bottle mysteriously, and said with a sly smile: "Come, your brother-in-law is here to help you!"
Xiao Jinghan looked at the porcelain bottle in his hand, his face flushed slightly, and he replied awkwardly: "I... I don't need this."
Luo Lingfeng, however, winked and smiled: "Hey, I understand, I understand! This is a good stuff, take it, I guarantee it will make your night even more memorable!" After saying that, he winked mischievously.
Xiao Jinghan's fair face turned red in an instant. He tried to refuse, but Luo Lingfeng stuffed the small porcelain bottle into his hand without saying a word and quickly ran away.
Looking at Luo Lingfeng walking away, Xiao Jinghan shook his head helplessly. He secretly sighed in his heart that this brother-in-law was really famous for being naughty. However, perhaps it was precisely because of this joyful atmosphere that this wedding was so special and unforgettable.
Xiao Jinghan raised his eyebrows slightly, a bitter smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and then he carefully put the small porcelain bottle into his sleeve.
At this moment, Luo Lingyue, who was sitting in the room, could no longer bear it. She reached out and took off the extremely heavy phoenix crown on her head, and couldn't help complaining in a low voice: "It was really troublesome for the ancients to get married! This phoenix crown is pressing on my scalp and it hurts. It's almost numb!"
After that, Luo Lingyue didn't care about her image, she just grabbed the cakes on the table and started to eat them voraciously. After all, she had been tossing and turning for so long that she didn't even have time to drink a sip of water! Now she was already starving!
At this time, Xiao Jinghan came over with two bowls of steaming braised pork noodles. With a smile on his face, he said softly, "Come and eat something hot to warm yourself up!"
Luo Lingyue quickly took the bowl and started eating without caring about her image. As she ate, she glanced at Xiao Jinghan who was eating slowly and elegantly beside her, and couldn't help laughing: "This noodles tastes really good! By the way, let's drink that cup of Hehuan wine, don't waste such good wine!"
Before she finished speaking, Luo Lingyue picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp. Xiao Jinghan saw this and smiled slightly, thinking to himself: Looking at her like this, it seems that she doesn't know the true meaning of Hehuan wine!
After having enough food and drink, Luo Lingyue jumped like a happy little bird and ran to wash up. Looking at her leaving back, Xiao Jinghan showed a subtle gentle smile on his face. Yes, now he can be regarded as a man with a family, even though all this is just a play...
Luo Lingyue quickly finished washing up. She looked at Xiao Jinghan, who was wearing a clean white middle-length dress in front of her. There were stars twinkling in her eyes, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart: This man is so handsome!
Xiao Jinghan raised his eyebrows slightly and asked in confusion: "What are you laughing at?"
Luo Lingyue showed a bright smile on her face and said softly: "I think you are so beautiful! Even more beautiful than a woman!" Her tone was full of sincerity and admiration.
After hearing this, Xiao Jinghan's mouth corners slightly raised, and a barely perceptible smile flashed in his eyes. He shook his head gently and said, "Appearance is just an outer shell, why bother so much?"
Luo Lingyue didn't think so. She said seriously: "Your beauty is not only in your appearance, but also in your temperament and charm. Every time I see you, I think you are very beautiful!"
After saying that, she walked lightly to the edge of the bed and then sat down gracefully. She raised her jade hands and picked up the longan and peanuts on the bed, and put them into her mouth to chew and savor them carefully.
Luo Lingyue was enjoying the pleasure brought by the food leisurely, but after a moment, she stood up without any warning. Then, a breeze blew, and the red candle on the table was extinguished instantly, and the surroundings fell into darkness.
In this quiet darkness, Xiao Jinghan only felt a hot breath approaching him. Before he could react, he was gently pulled by a delicate little hand and slowly led to the bed.
At this moment, Xiao Jinghan's face seemed to be burned by flames in the darkness, extremely hot. He could clearly feel Luo Lingyue's orchid-like breath gently caressing his face...
