It suddenly became quiet inside and outside the courtyard.
Texue was about to go outside to take a look, but as soon as he opened the door, he bumped into Xiao Ci wearing a bright red wedding robe.
Then he knelt down and respectfully called out: "I have met the prince."
Xiao Ci responded and strode into the room, immediately smelling of alcohol.
"Everyone, please go out." Xiao Ci ordered, and people were already standing in front of Song Qinghuan.
Song Qinghuan hurriedly kicked the peanut shells and longan shells under the bed, his face stained a little rosy.
Xiao Ci didn't even look at her, he just hurriedly took off his wedding robe and took out the casual clothes he had prepared early in the morning and put on them.
Seeing that Song Qinghuan was motionless, he smiled and said, "Why, you still want me to help you change your clothes?"
"No, no, no, no." Song Qinghuan waved her hands repeatedly, hugged her clothes and hid behind the screen.
There are nine wedding dresses on my body, and it would be troublesome to remove them one by one.
While Song Qinghuan was changing her clothes, she asked out of boredom, "Where are we going?"
"Let's go to a nice place." Xiao Ci had already changed his clothes. Apart from the golden crown on his bun, he casually tied a wooden hairpin on his head.
Holding the riding whip in his hand, he turned around the screen and smiled when he saw Song Qinghuan.
Song Qinghuan screamed in surprise and hurriedly put on her clothes to block it. Her face turned red with anxiety and said, "You, turn around, don't look."
Xiao Ci laughed: "It's not like I've never seen him before, so there's nothing to be ashamed of."
Song Qinghuan glared: "When have you seen this before?"
Xiao Ci said he let something slip and didn't explain it. He just laughed and dismissed it.
The person turned outside the screen and urged, "Hurry up, or you won't be able to get out later."
"I, I have too many clothes..."
Song Qinghuan explained dryly, but as soon as he finished speaking, there was a burst of noise outside.
Xiao Ci raised his eyebrows, turned around the screen, and saw that Song Qinghuan was wearing only two wedding dresses. He immediately smiled again: "That's it."
As he said this, he held her waist, climbed out of the window on the west wall, and left Prince Rui's Mansion after a few ups and downs.
The horses were tied up outside a long time ago. The two of them rode together, raised their whips, and started running quickly.
The cool night breeze was blowing on Song Qinghuan's back. She retracted her whole body into Xiao Ci's arms and asked loudly, "Where are we going?"
Xiao Ci's voice was blown away in the wind, and he chuckled: "Go to a place that only we know."
The horses walked through the streets of Kyoto, going further and further off the road. Song Qinghuan leaned on Xiao Ci's body, feeling both physically and mentally at ease, and fell asleep without noticing.
When Xiao Ci stopped the horse outside the forest at the foot of Qianfo Mountain, he realized that she was so sleepy that her saliva was drooling.
Through the moonlight, he glanced at Song Qinghuan sleeping soundly in his arms. He couldn't help but smile again, and simply turned over and dismounted while holding her in his arms.
He walked neatly through the trees and turned into the secret cave at the foot of Qianfo Mountain.
There were red candles burning in the cave, with the words "Double Happiness" painted in gold on them.
Song Qinghuan felt uncomfortable because of the candlelight, and he squinted for a long time before he woke up.
When he raised his head and saw the stone wall above his head, he was stunned for a moment. Then he rolled his eyes and realized what he was doing.
There was joy on his face, he jumped off Xiao Ci and said with a smile: "Your secret is your secret."
Xiao Ci responded and led her further inside.
When Song Qinghuan came back, there were even simple beds, tables and chairs added to the cave.
Even the bedding on the couch is from Double Happiness.
There is a pot on the table and a red lacquered and gold food box beside it.
One look at it and you can tell it was premeditated.
Song Qinghuan took one look at Xiao Ci and couldn't help but giggle: "Uncle Jiu, have you planned this for a long time? Do you plan to bring me here to avoid the night of flowers and candles?"
Xiao Ci knew that Song Qinghuan was very hungry, so he lit the charcoal fire in the pot early in the morning and put out the food in the food box one by one.
Hearing this, he raised his eyes to look at her, with a smile in his eyes: "What do you think it's okay?"
Without waiting for Song Qinghuan to answer, he added: "Those people from the Five Cities Army and Horses Division are making such a fuss that we really have to spend the night in the palace, because I'm afraid we won't be able to sleep tonight."
As he fell asleep, he raised his eyebrows: "A moment of Spring Xiao is worth a thousand pieces of gold."
Song Qinghuan pursed her lips and smiled, sat down on the bed, touched the red double quilt on top, and said, "I don't know if this bed is stable or not."
When Xiao Ci saw that there was no trace of disgust or anger on her brows, he immediately laughed and his mood became even better.
The clear soup in the pot was already boiling. Xiao Ci laid out the bowls and chopsticks and waved to Song Qinghuan: "Come here and have something to eat first."
He has also been married once, so he naturally knows how difficult it is.
Song Qinghuan was so tormented by Xiao Ci that her shyness and nervousness about getting married were completely dissipated.
I sat down on the simple bench, picked up my chopsticks and put down a few slices of mutton.
There was nothing in his stomach, and he was not hungry even after eating a few peanuts and longans, so he had already begun to sing about the empty city strategy.
Xiao Ci picked some vegetables that cooked quickly and cooked them in the pot, then took out the wine cup and filled it up.
"It's a good day, worth a drink or two."
Song Qinghuan dipped the cooked meat slices in the sauce and stuffed them into her mouth. It was so hot that her mouth moved, and she mumbled in response: "It's worth it."
Then he raised his wine cup and drank it all in one gulp.
The wine had a sweet taste and was not choking in the mouth. Song Qinghuan drank it down, but when it was not enough, she asked Xiao Ci to fill it up for her.
Xiao Ci smiled and said, "This wine has a lot of stamina, so don't regret it."
"What's the point of regretting having a drink?"
Song Qinghuan murmured and took out all the edible food in the pot into the bowl.
I was in such a hurry when I went out that I didn't even have time to change into my wedding dress, and I didn't even have time to take off my jewelry.
There are four or five bracelets on my wrists and several rings on my fingertips, which is a bit troublesome right now.
He simply took off the jewelry on his body, took off several hairpins from his hair, spread his hair, and directly took the hairpins from Xiao Ci's bun to make a loose bun.
The makeup on her face has not yet been removed. She is wearing a red shirt and a few strands of broken hair. Under the candlelight, she looks particularly beautiful.
Xiao Ci stared at Song Qinghuan for a long time, poured himself two glasses of wine, and then laughed again: "My husband is drunk."
Song Qinghuan rolled up his sleeves and was fighting with the pot in front of him. Hearing this, he sneered: "You must be too drunk. You are drunk after just a few drinks."
Xiao Ci didn't say anything. He only served her food and poured wine, but he didn't even take a few bites.
After half a drink, Xiao Ci looked at Song Qinghuan's cheeks which were slightly red. Xiao Ci put his hands on his cheeks and smiled softly: "Madam, if you don't get drunk with wine, everyone will get drunk. I don't care about drinking as a drunkard."
Before Song Qinghuan could think of anything, he was already being hugged by Xiao Ci.
This man's face was full of spring breeze, and the corners of his eyes and brows were filled with indescribable tenderness.
