After the new widow, I became a tyrant's tender outer chamber

Chapter 99
Zhaorong looked into Jiang Huaiyang's cold eyes, and suddenly understood that her imperial brother did not come to bless her and Xingqiu.

Her heart sank, as if falling into an abyss, tightly wrapped around her weightlessness, making her dizzy.

She heard the new emperor speak again, "Jiang Tingxue, I can allow you to get married, it's just the consequences, you have to think about it carefully."

She froze for a moment before realizing that it was her name.It has been a long time since she moved out of the palace, and even the queen mother kept calling her by her title, as if this was her name. After a long time, even she almost forgot about it.

This title seems to be deeply branded in her bones and blood, giving her glory, and it also means that she has to bear the responsibility of being a princess of a country.

It's just that the queen mother really protected her so well that she has only enjoyed the benefits of being a golden branch and a jade leaf, but she has no sympathy for the people and no empathy.

She actually knew that the reason why the emperor called her by her name was to ask her to choose between the position of eldest princess and Cheng Xingqiu.

There is no such thing as having fun without responsibility.

But without the status of the eldest princess, can she still control Xingqiu, and will Cheng Zhushi still be nice to her?A voice deep within her had already given her the answer.

She had no choice but to pretend that she didn't understand, and turned to scold the servant girl, "What are you doing in a daze, and you haven't installed a tablecloth and chair for His Majesty."

The ordered servant girl trembled and quickly responded.

Zhaorong smiled again, "Brother Huang must have been tired all the way, why not go to the main hall and have dinner first." She was beating like a drum, thinking, if he didn't agree, she would How to deal with it.

Fortunately, Jiang Huaiyang didn't hold on all the time, he nodded slightly, and followed the maid to the main hall.

As soon as the new emperor left, the atmosphere in the wedding hall became much more relaxed. Several acquaintances of the Cheng family clan gathered together and whispered to each other endlessly.

Master Cheng felt cold sweat dripping from his forehead, raised his hand to wipe it off, and told the praisers to continue.After the praisers sang three times, Cheng Xingqiu did not respond.

He lowered his eyes in a daze, although his eyes seemed to fall on the ground, but they were obviously not looking there.

He was the number one scholar in the reign of the late emperor, and his name was also recited by the late emperor. Since then, the dynasty has changed, but he has not been promoted, so the new emperor has been on the throne for a few months, and he has never seen the new emperor's face.

He didn't know the new emperor, but he didn't know the face of the man in black.

At that time in Shenghe Temple, he saw this man standing with Lingling. He remembered that he thought that the new emperor wanted to frivolous Lingling, so his tone was very unkind, and he didn't know——whether His Majesty would mind.

The more he thought about it, the more flustered he became, fearing that because of one sentence, he would cut off his future.He almost wished he could rush out now and apologize to His Majesty.

It's just that he knows when it is now, and he can't just leave casually.

He suddenly felt a hand on his arm, and her voice was soft and sweet, "Husband——" He looked sideways, and Zhaorong had already put on a hipa, so he couldn't see her expression, but he knew she was going to She frowned slightly, with a hint of worry in her eyes.

She lowered her voice so only the two of them could hear.

Cheng Xingqiu's heart softened when he was called out, maybe others thought Zhaorong was willful and savage, but she never put on the airs of a princess in front of her, and even took good care of him, just like the daughter of an ordinary family.

Your Majesty has a lot of things to do every day, so how can he remember his little words, if this is the case, if he mentions it in front of the saint, it will be to find trouble for himself.With that in mind, he put the matter aside for the time being.

After that, the ceremony continued naturally.

Followed by the praiser, "After the ceremony, leave the class and send it to the bridal chamber!", this complicated ceremony is over.Two young maidservants led Cheng Xingqiu and Zhao Rong into the west wing with candles and dragon and phoenix candles.

Because the bride is only respected by the princess, no one dares to make trouble in the bridal chamber.After the ceremony was completed and the sky darkened, Cheng Xingqiu proposed to pick out most of the candles in the house, leaving only one.

The dim light illuminated the room, and the room was dim, only showing the two shadows of each other in the red tent.

But in Ruan Yuyi's courtyard, it was a different scene.

Although there was no one in the courtyard, the lights in the main wing were still on, indicating that the people inside hadn't rested yet.Ruan Yuyi held a white piece and dropped it after a little thought. The jade piece and the board made a crisp sound.

She quietly waited for the wood spirit on the other side of the short table to drop another child.

Although there was a commotion for a while due to the sudden arrival of the new emperor, the news never reached her because the confinement in her courtyard was not lifted.

Mu Xiang took a cup of warm milk and knocked on the door.Seeing that Mu Ling was still playing with the young lady here, he said, "It's getting late, if the young lady is tired, let's take a rest, don't get used to this little maid."

Before dusk, Mu Ling took out the chessboard and suggested playing a few rounds with the young lady to pass the time.

Today Ruan Yuyi was awakened by the loud gongs and drums outside very early in the morning, and the noise didn't subside until nightfall.Presumably, the ceremony was completed, and after the banquet, those guests also gradually returned to their respective mansions.

But although she felt sleepy, she couldn't take a nap.So we casually went to the ground with Mu Ling for a while, not wanting to get excited, but rather energetic.If it wasn't for Mu Xiang calling, she still wouldn't be aware of what time it is.

She took the milk, took a sip, and the taste was mellow, which really aroused her drowsiness.

When Mu Ling heard what Mu Xiang said, he said indignantly, "I was about to win once, but you interrupted me."

"You've been playing with Miss for so long, don't you lose to Miss every time?" Mu Xiang was startled, and seeing her pouty look, she knew she had guessed it, and chuckled, "Don't you It was Miss who let you go, and you still can't win."

Mu Ling was still waiting to refute, but Mu Xiang stopped her words, "Clean up this place, I will wait for the lady to wash and change clothes." Mu Ling turned his face, and saw that the lady's eyelashes were drooping, and there was a tired look between her eyebrows and eyes, Then he swallowed the words back.

After everything was tidied up, Ruan Yuyi got on the bed with her long hair loose and wearing only a thin undershirt.Mu Xiang put down the curtain for her, and cut off the candle wick.

"Miss," she said softly, "my servant is outside, call me if you need anything."

When Ruan Yuyi touched the pillow, she felt her body became heavy, and her strength was withdrawn from her body bit by bit.She was indeed extremely sleepy, upon hearing this, she hummed lightly.

Then there was the sound of closing the door, and the rest of the room was silent.

The moonlight is like water, pouring down the ground under the window.The window was pushed open by someone, and the light on the ground seemed even stronger.The tall and slender young man in black clothes landed steadily, and walked to the side of the bed with light steps.

He stretched out his hand to open the curtain of the bed, and by the moonlight, watched the little lady's sleeping face.

At this moment she has fallen asleep, half of her face is buried in the brocade quilt, she can vaguely see her delicate nose and slender eyelashes, just like a resting butterfly, with her wings folded, she looks extraordinarily quiet and well-behaved, very pleasing .

It's just that she doesn't know how she will feel when she hears the gongs and drums outside today.
