As the night progressed, the huge palace finally returned to its former tranquility.

In the small courtyard of Jingyuan, palace lanterns hung low under the eaves, and the soft firelight illuminated the dark courtyard through the palace lanterns depicting beautiful landscapes.

In the center of the courtyard, flowers of various colors bloom quietly, and there is a subtle fragrance floating in the air, which is refreshing.

In the new house, the dragon and phoenix red candles were still burning quietly, and there were two empty wine glasses on the table.

On the other side of the room, the gauze curtain fell and the embroidered curtain hung low.

Behind the curtain, Luo Junyao's original elegant and complicated bun had already been put down, and it was scattered casually to one side.

The girl's beautiful face was still flushed, and she leaned in Xie Yan's arms with her eyes closed and fell asleep with a tired look on her face.

The man who held her tightly in his arms did not fall asleep with her at this time. He was looking down at the beautiful sleeping face in his arms. He raised his hand and touched the bright red and moist lips, as if he was reluctant to wake her up.

Leave soon.

"Shake." He whispered.

"Huh?" Half asleep and half awake, Luo Junyao slowly opened her eyes, but her eyes were also blurred with sleep. She asked vaguely: "Is it dawn yet?"

Xie Yan chuckled and said softly: "Not yet, you just fell asleep."

"Oh..." Luo Junyao blinked and raised his hand to rub his eyes.

The brocade quilt slipped off, revealing one of her flawless arms as slender as jade, but Xie Yan quickly took his hand and stuffed it back again.

The chill of the early winter night finally made her wake up a little. When she opened her eyes, she saw the sober and deep eyes of the man in front of her, as well as the obvious bite marks on the man's solid chest and under the collarbone.

"Why...why aren't you sleeping yet?" Luo Junyao felt a little embarrassed and kept glancing to the side.

"It hurts, I can't sleep." Xie Yan whispered.

Luo Junyao felt that he was shocked. She didn't even cry out for pain. Why did he cry out about pain?

When she raised her head and met his half-smiling eyes, she realized that he was referring to the wound she had bitten.

This...it's not her fault.

"It really... hurts?" Luo Junyao asked in a low voice.

"Um."

Luo Junyao, who was just half asleep and half awake, but his mind was not very clear, thought for a while, then leaned forward and blew gently.

As gentle as a feather across the skin, the man's eyes became deeper and deeper.

"Shake."

"It doesn't hurt anymore, I didn't use too much force. Well...I don't like to bite people." Luo Junyao whispered, feeling a little uneasy. This didn't seem convincing. This was not the first time she bit Xie Yan.

Xie Yan finally couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Luo Junyao finally realized that he had been tricked, "Xie Yan!"

Xie Yan had no choice but to say, "The king was wrong. Please forgive me, princess."

Luo Junyao snorted softly, turned his head and ignored her.

In the room, the only sound left was the sound of His Royal Highness the Regent making small apologies. After a long time, the clear laughter of a woman could be heard again.

It was cold in early winter and it was quiet at night, but the faint laughter added a bit of warmth to the quiet courtyard that had never been seen before.

In the early morning, the bright morning light filled the entire Regent's Palace.

The dewdrops on the flowers reflected colorful light in the sun. Qin Yao'er squatted in front of a pot of red flowers at the entrance of the courtyard, playing with the delicate flowers with her fingers in boredom.

"Xiao Yao'er." Wei Changting stood not far away, waving to Qin Yao'er with a smile.

Qin Yaoer glanced back at him and remained motionless.

Wei Changting didn't care and said with a smile: "Little Yao'er, be good. I have something to report to the prince, please go in and inform me."

Prince Wei was also very helpless about this. If he had gone in directly in the past, but now that the prince has married the princess, it is obviously inappropriate to go in like this.

If he disturbed something, wouldn't Xie Yan skin him?

Qin Yao'er said: "Your Majesty hasn't gotten up yet."

Wei Changting looked up at the sun in the sky, wondering if it was actually the moon?

His Royal Highness the Regent's work and rest routine is simply a nightmare for ordinary people.

Wei Changting has known him for so many years. Except for being seriously injured and comatose, no matter when he went to bed the day before, he would always wake up at 2:00 a.m. the next day.

Now this...

Prince Wei looked at the position of the sun in the sky. It was already past time, right?

It is difficult for a hero to be a beauty, for beauty can mislead others. Even His Highness the Regent could not survive this gentle country. Prince Wei expressed his heartache.

Qin Yao'er turned to look at him impatiently, "Why are you still here? Do you really want me to go in and report it?" She didn't mind, since Wei Changting would bear the consequences anyway.

Wei Changting rubbed his nose and said, "Forget it, it's... not that important. I'll leave first."

Well, he was actually curious about what Xie Yan would be like on his first day of marriage, so he hurried over here. But being curious about such things was not worth letting him offend Xie Yan.

Qin Yao'er didn't care, nodded and walked into the yard.

In the new house, Xie Yan had already stood up.

The red candle that had been burning all night had been extinguished. Xie Yan glanced at Lan Yin who came in with water and said: "Be quiet, don't disturb Yao Yao."

Lan Yin bowed slightly to accept the order and brought the water into the washroom on the side.

After Xie Yan came out of the shower and changed his clothes, he strolled to the bedside. He gently lifted the heavy double curtains and saw his newlywed wife who was still sleeping.

A hint of tenderness flashed across Xie Yan's eyes, and he raised his hand to gently caress her reddish cheeks. The flawless white face and skin were so delicate that they could be broken by a blow.

"Your Majesty, Crown Prince Wei just asked for an audience outside the hospital." Qin Yao'er came in and whispered.

Xie Yan nodded, stood up, and ordered: "Take good care of the princess and don't disturb her. When she wakes up, come over and report to the king."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Qin Yaoer nodded obediently, and stretched his neck to see Luo Junyao on the bed behind Xie Yan.

Xie Yan glanced at her warningly, "Be quiet."

Qin Yao'er immediately raised her hands and crossed her two index fingers on her mouth to signal me to shut up. Xie Yan then ignored her and walked outside.

When he went out, Qin Yao'er made a face at his back. But she didn't dare to run to the bed. She just stretched her neck and looked at it, then she slipped out lightly.

Wei Changting was sitting in the study and saw people coming in from the outside. He couldn't help but joked: "His Royal Highness the Regent, you are finally up. It seems that last night... uh, ahem, I mean, congratulations to the prince.

Happy wedding."

Xie Yan didn't bother to pay attention to him, walked to the main seat and sat down, saying: "It's rare that you come here so early in the morning. What's the matter?"

Prince Wei said, “Did His Highness the Regent redefine early morning?”

This time, he did not argue with Xie Yan and said seriously: "The Qi people went to Lihonglu Temple to submit their credentials early in the morning."

Xie Yan raised his eyebrows slightly, and Wei Changting nodded to confirm his guess, "The princess of the Qi tribe came to visit. What she handed over was the official credential of the Qi tribe, with Ji Sui's seal on it." In other words, Bai Jingrong was not acting as a private person.

Dasheng's identity is as an envoy of the Qi people.

In this way, if something happens to Bai Jingrong in Shangyong, it will be regarded as Dasheng's intention to start an all-out war with the Qi people. Not only the relationship between Dasheng and the Qi people, but also other small countries will question Dasheng's etiquette and etiquette.

style.

After all, even if the two countries fight, there will still be an envoy of Bu Zhan, not to mention that neither Dasheng nor the Qi people are actually incapable of fighting anymore.

"Princess of the Qi tribe?" Xie Yan raised his eyebrows slightly.

Although many people in the Qi royal court did call Bai Jingrong princess, in fact it was just a nice title.

Ji Sui's eldest princess is from the most powerful Qi clan. No matter how favored Bai Jingrong is, she, an outsider, has never really shaken her status as the eldest princess in these years.

Wei Changting said: "There is no news yet, but there should be no problem with Princess Bai Jingrong's identity. She has the golden ring of the princess of the Qi tribe on her body. I guess... the eldest princess and her mother's family are probably dying."

Xie Yan nodded and said: "In this case, just treat it as a foreign envoy. In addition, I would like to remind Bai Jingrong that she should be at peace. If her soul dies due to any personal grudges, the Dasheng court will not be responsible."

"That's a problem." Wei Changting gloated, "She has a lot of enemies. If someone seeks revenge on her... the Qi people can't blame us, right?"

Xie Yan glanced at him, "Bai Jingrong dares to come to Yong. Do you think she really believes that Dasheng Buza is here to envoy?" Doesn't Bai Jingrong know the attitude of Dasheng people towards her? It's not like she can't survive.

Impatient.

Wei Changting shrugged: "Okay. She also said she wanted to go to the palace to meet the Empress Dowager. In addition, she just arrived in Shangyong and was not able to come to congratulate you yesterday. She couldn't even send out congratulatory gifts. She wanted to congratulate you in person."

Xie Yan thought for a while and said: "The Empress Dowager is not feeling well, so there is no need to see her. I have no personal relationship with her. Since I want to see you, the court will announce her appearance in a few days."

Wei Changting raised his eyebrows slightly but said nothing.

With Bai Jingrong's character, I'm afraid she won't be satisfied with this arrangement.

However, Shangyong is their territory, who says they must arrange it according to her wishes?

"Let Gu Jue look at Cui Zheyu." Xie Yan suddenly said.

Wei Changting was startled, and soon his face became more solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "I know, but Yu Chen..."

"Don't worry." Xie Yan said: "Since he is back, he must have realized that he cannot leave Shangyong."

Wei Changting calmed down and nodded: "Okay, I will tell Gu Jue. Yu Chen is not her problem alone. Since he dares to come back, I will not believe Wei if he is allowed to leave alive!"
