The sun was shining brightly in the late summer afternoon, but there was no cicada chirping in the yard.
Banqin carefully used a whisk to drive away the non-existent mosquitoes in the house. She heard slight footsteps in the yard and looked up to see Eunuch Jing, Mr. Gu and a few others exiting.
The maid standing outside the door quickly came over and opened the curtain.
"Your Highness." Banqin hurriedly saluted and said in a low voice.
Prince Jin'an hesitated and looked indoors.
"Madam hasn't woken up yet." Banqin whispered.
Prince Jin'an said, seeming to regret coming in.
"Then..." He started to speak.
Banqin has already opened the bead curtain of the inner room.
"Your Highness, please go and rest for a while," she said.
The prince of Jin'an County said, hesitantly and stepped in.
The curtain of the bed was not lowered. Cheng Jiaoniang, who was only wearing a light green undergarment, was sleeping facing inside, with her hands on her body and holding a fan. Because she was just taking a nap, her hair was not untied, so she only let her hair down and her hair was loose.
At the back of my head, I felt even more lazy.
There were two tea bowls placed on the tables nearby. Prince Jin'an looked over and saw that one of them was half full, while the other was still full.
The corners of his mouth couldn't help but curve, and he picked up the full cup and was about to drink it. From the corner of his eye, he saw the fan on Cheng Jiaoniang's body slowly sliding down, and he hurriedly stepped forward and reached out to catch it.
This is a white horn silk fan. It will definitely make a crisp sound when it falls on the ground, which will definitely wake her up.
Prince Jin'an held the fan and breathed a sigh of relief. He stood by the bed and looked at Cheng Jiaoniang, who was sleeping on her side. She was sleeping deeply, and there were thin beads of sweat on her smooth and delicate face.
He subconsciously sat down and fanned her with a fan. The sleeping woman's nostrils flapped slightly and her head moved, feeling comfortable and happy.
She actually had such a cute little reaction. Prince Jin'an couldn't help but widen his eyes, finding it very interesting, and the movements of his hands became even gentler.
Cheng Jiaoniang opened her eyes at this time.
"You're back." She said, her voice lazily as if she had just woken up.
The face of the woman who had just woken up was slightly red, and her eyes were misty. He had never seen Cheng Jiaoniang like this before.
Prince Jin'an couldn't help but stare blankly, then quickly recovered and quickly looked away.
"Just came in." He said, fanning the fan in his hand hard and fast a few times, as if to disperse something, and asked, "Would you like some water?"
Cheng Jiaoniang shook her head on the pillow.
"You should also take a nap." She said.
The prince of Jin'an County was slightly moved.
"Okay." He said, drank all the water in his hand, put his hand on the table at the head of the bed, and patted Cheng Jiaoniang with his fan, "You go in."
Cheng Jiaoniang was slightly startled, but without saying anything, she lifted herself up and moved inside. Prince Jin'an then raised his feet, kicked off his shoes, and lay down on his back.
The soft and fragrant pillow made him couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, and waved the fan in his hand vigorously again, causing the bed curtains to move.
"Is it hot?" Cheng Jiaoniang asked, getting up, "I want them to add some ice."
"No need." Prince Jin'an said, "I just looked and there are still more."
Cheng Jiaoniang hesitated for a moment and then lay down again.
"There is no need to get up early tomorrow." Prince Jin'an said.
"The matter of entering the palace has been rejected?" Cheng Jiaoniang asked.
Prince Jin'an nodded and turned to face Cheng Jiaoniang with a smile on his face.
"Of course I rejected it." He smiled, "I guess your Majesty won't want to see me in the near future."
Cheng Jiaoniang smiled slightly.
"I probably don't want to see you anymore." She said.
The soft voice, the smiling face, the fragrant breath, the distance was so close, King Jin'an couldn't help but feel a little warmer, and he waved the fan in his hand vigorously again.
I really didn't expect that one day I would lie with her and talk to each other like this. King Jin'an thought of saying goodbye to her before leaving the capital for Maoping. He took a bath and changed clothes at her house and saw her sitting in the hall.
The scene of talking to the maid.
It's like coming home.
The thoughts that came up at that time reminded him of it frequently when he was in Maoping.
What is home? A place with relatives who care and love you.
From about that time on, he probably regarded her as a relative, so when he heard that she was discussing marriage in the capital and the Queen Mother came forward in person, he became uneasy.
From then on, she became someone else's family and had nothing to do with him anymore.
Just thinking about this made him feel like he couldn't breathe.
So he must rush back, rush back as soon as possible...
Although he didn't know what he was going to do when he came back at that time, when he saw her, he blurted out the words to marry her.
Thinking of this, King Jin'an couldn't help but exhale again.
Although the process of this incident was unexpected, she still ended up becoming his relative.
His relatives, his wife, and the mother of his future children...
child!
Damn it, where did he go?
Prince Jin'an's face turned red, the fan in his hand whirred, and a hand came up to hold his hand.
The prince of Jin'an County froze.
The fan was taken away by that slender hand.
"The strong wind of the fan does not necessarily mean strong wind." Cheng Jiaoniang said, while slowly shaking the fan.
The gentle wind came slowly, and Prince Jin'an lay down on his back a little embarrassed.
"If you don't see me, then you will see me. Mr. Gu asked me whether I should submit a confession or make a defense or something, but I am too lazy to show it." He continued the topic.
"As long as you are happy," Cheng Jiaoniang said.
Just be happy.
Can things in the world still be like this? Prince Jin'an smiled, and he couldn't help but turned his head again.
"Really, I can do whatever I want to do?" he asked.
"That's natural." Cheng Jiaoniang also turned to look at him and smiled, "If you do something bad, you won't be happy."
Prince Jin'an laughed out loud. Looking at the small nose in front of him, he couldn't help but reach out and pinch it.
"I understand. What you say is a lie. No matter what you say, you are right." He smiled.
The tentacles are as smooth and delicate as the tofu bought from Taipingju, and a pair of big eyes close at hand can see his shadow.
The fan in Cheng Jiaoniang's hand also stopped suddenly.
The room instantly fell into stasis.
Their eyes met, and King Jin'an's eyes slowly widened.
He, what is he doing.
The fan in Cheng Jiaoniang's hand started to flap slowly again, and the wind blew slowly, breaking the deadlock and stagnation.
Prince Jin'an also came to his senses, loosened his grip suddenly, and stepped back.
"Be careful." Cheng Jiaoniang said, standing up and reaching out to pull it.
The Prince of Jin'an County had already fallen down from the bed in embarrassment. The moment he fell, he subconsciously reached out and took Cheng Jiaoniang's stretched out hand.
"Lady!"
Banqin ran in panic when she heard the commotion, and immediately saw the two people hugging each other under the couch, although their posture was a bit strange.
Banqin's face turned red, she turned around and ran out in a panic, not forgetting to close the door to the inner room.
Su Xin was startled when she was about to enter. Just as she was about to ask, Ban Qin waved her hand and pushed her out.
The maids waiting in the corridor also looked over curiously.
"You all go down." Banqin said with a red face.
Although the maids were puzzled, they still followed the instructions and left.
"What's wrong?" Su Xin asked in a low voice.
Banqin blushed and looked inside the room.
"Your Highness and Madam... are taking a lunch break." She said in a voice that sounded like mosquitoes.
Su Xin understood immediately and her face turned red.
This, in this daytime...
Maybe it’s because of the newlyweds. It’s a bit awkward for young people to experience this for the first time...
Is this good or bad? There are no elders in the family...
Su Xin's thoughts were in turmoil, so she might as well find an opportunity to go back and ask Huang.
The girls outside were thinking wildly, but Cheng Jiaoniang inside had already pulled Prince Jin'an to his feet.
"This bed is too small..." Prince Jin'an said with a bit of embarrassment, but also pretended to be relaxed, "I didn't know it at the time, and I didn't even look at it. They all chose it..."
As he spoke, he frowned and stared at the bed.
"Change it, let them change it now."
He said and shook his head again.
"Why don't we just change the house?" He said, walking a few steps in the house with his hands on his hips and raising his brows, "According to what I originally thought, the wedding room was not here, but over there where I live. Now,
Now there is no need to go into the palace. With things like this, I definitely can’t go out. I just have nothing to do at home, so we can move there."
After finishing this call, King Jin'an felt that the heat on his face was gradually fading away. He turned around, picked up the teapot, poured a glass of water, drank it, and poured another glass for Cheng Jiaoniang.
"Do you agree?" he asked, handing over the water glass.
Cheng Jiaoniang listened to his murmuring words, sat on the couch, shook her fan, and took the water glass in one hand.
"Okay." She said, took a sip of water, and looked at him again, "But maybe it's not necessary."
Prince Jin'an was stunned for a moment, no need? But he soon understood and his expression calmed down.
"Yeah," he said, "I'm probably going to be kicked out this time."
At this point he laughed again.
"But don't worry, it's not that easy to drive me away."
Cheng Jiaoniang shook her head.
"No," she said, "It's probably not that easy to leave this time."
…………………………………………
"Drive him away quickly and as far away as possible."
In the palace, the Queen Mother was crying to Gao Lingbo.
"This madman, he has gone crazy..."
At this point, he stopped again.
"No, he's not crazy." The Queen Mother looked around with a bit of panic and lowered her voice, "He is no longer Wei Lang, he has been bent over by the yaksha attracted by that woman..."
Gao Lingbo sighed inwardly.
"My Majesty, you are wrong." He said, "This is the real Wei Lang. The one before was just coaxing Your Majesty and you to play tricks."
There was an undeniable emphasis on the tone.
"So, we must not let him leave the capital now."
The Queen Mother was startled.
"Why don't you let him go? Didn't you all urge him to leave the capital before?" She said, "He was so obedient and well-behaved before and you wanted to drive him away. But now that he has become like this, you want to keep him?"
"
"Because he knew how to act before, and if he was willing to act, he still knew his duty." Gao Lingbo said, "But now he doesn't even want to do the act. In other words, he no longer wants this duty. He doesn't even want his duty."
My dear, if you let him go and leave the capital far away, you will undoubtedly be feeding a tiger into trouble."
"He, what can he do?" the Queen Mother said angrily with a trembling voice, "Does he dare to rebel?"
When he said the word "rebellion", he couldn't help but reach out and take pictures of several cases.
"Kill him quickly, kill him."
Gao Lingbo nodded.
"It is precisely because we want to kill him that we keep him in the capital." He said, "If we let him go, there will be no chance to kill him. Now that he has caused such a thing, the court is in an uproar and scholars are criticizing him.
Being in the capital is his prison, and it would be extremely easy to punish him."
The Queen Mother nodded, calming down.
"Besides, your Majesty, the most important thing now is not how to deal with the rebellious King Jin'an." Gao Lingbo said.
Doesn't this matter?
"He wants to kill the Ai family and is waiting for the queen to adopt him as the prince." The queen mother said anxiously, taking pictures of several cases.
Gao Lingbo smiled.
"I want to adopt him as the prince. He doesn't have the ability now. Firstly, he has ruined his reputation at this time. Even if he adopts him, it won't be his turn. Secondly, if the prince is the same day, whoever adopts him will be unfair."
He smiled and said, "So, the most important thing now is to get the prince married and give birth to the emperor's grandson as soon as possible. This way, the orthodoxy of His Majesty's bloodline can be continued and some people's thoughts that they shouldn't have can be stopped."
Yes, we have all forgotten about the prince's wedding.
The Queen Mother nodded.
"What do you think about the Crown Princess?" She asked with a bit of urgency, "Do we have a suitable home for our daughter?"
Gao Lingbo shook his head.
"My wife, our family is the most unsuitable." He said with a smile, "My wife, don't worry, there is already a more suitable person."
