In the resplendent palace, the supreme ruler of the dynasty, His Majesty the current emperor, Emperor Chongde finally put down the Langhao pen, and was looking at the tall and tall man in front of the imperial case with a smile, a pair of deep and majestic eyes revealing a little smile.
Emperor Chongde is thirty-five years old this year, just at the age of high spirits. His handsome appearance is very similar to that of King Su. Since he ascended the throne at the age of twenty-five, he has worked diligently for the people. After smoothing out the mess left by the old emperor one by one, he gradually took back the power of the country. His years of emperor career made him Added the majesty of the emperor.
Eunuch Liu, the chief eunuch of the palace who was waiting on the sidelines, lowered his neck as much as possible to weaken his sense of existence. He didn't dare to look at the emperor who changed his majestic and solemn appearance in front of the ministers and concubines, let alone the serious man in front of the case. The favored younger brother—Su Wang Chu Baning.
"Ba Ning, how was the wedding night in the bridal chamber?"
Emperor Chongde's slightly hoarse voice was relaxed, showing his current good mood.
"..."
Emperor Chongde coughed lightly, and said, "...are you in the same room?"
"Brother Huang, please be careful with your words!" Chu Baning looked serious.
Emperor Chongde chuckled, and said, "Last night was your first time as an adult! Finally, Brother Huang, you don't have to worry about you not being able to marry a wife and going on the road to Longyang!"
"Chendi is not good at Longyang!" Chu Baning clarified again solemnly.
Emperor Chongde stood up, went to the case and patted his younger brother on the shoulder, and said with emotion: "Ba Ning, I know, you have finally become a man, brother emperor is happy!"
Chu Baning immediately turned dark.
Eunuch Liu lowered his neck, which was so low that it could not be lowered, and prayed in his heart that His Royal Highness Su would not get mad, and hoped that their majesty would not challenge His Highness Su's tolerance anymore. God knows that a serious person was provoked to go crazy At that time, even the empress dowager couldn't stop it!
"Ba Ning, hurry up and give birth to a little prince for me next year, so who would dare to say that my brother beats his wife and son!" Emperor Chongde couldn't maintain his emperor's demeanor any longer, and he was so happy that he rubbed his fists together, Can't wait to run out to amnesty the world, to celebrate his younger brother finally becoming an adult and eating meat.
Su Wang pursed his lips and remained silent, but his ears were slightly blush. He could only use a more serious expression to make himself look normal, not affected by an emperor who cared about his younger brother's private life.
Emperor Chongde walked around the hall a few times, suddenly remembered something, and quickly raised his voice, "Eunuch Liu~"
Eunuch Liu, who was in the background version of the cosplay, hurriedly stepped forward and bowed: "Your Majesty, the servant is here."
"Eunuch Liu, according to my order, go to the Imperial Hospital and send Imperial Physician Hu and Imperial Physician Li to Prince Su's Mansion. They were stationed there before Concubine Su became pregnant!"
"Hey!" Eunuch Liu swept away the Buddha's dust and took the order to leave.
King Su frowned, and said with a serious face: "Brother Huang, this is against the rules!"
Emperor Chongde is in a good mood now, and he doesn't mind Su Wang's serious face like Laozi's. Instead, he said with a smile: "Ba Ning, this is very necessary! Do you know that because you married a concubine this time, the gambling in the capital will The number of times Fang Kai gambled broke the previous record. Also, don’t think that I don’t know that the group of ministers in the court who are not doing their jobs are all stretching their necks and waiting for the accident of Princess Su whom I am referring to... Humph , those old bastards, they hide their own scandals, and want to tell the world about other people's scandals."
Chu Baning pursed his lips and remained silent.
"Is it really so easy to see the scandal of my emperor's younger brother?" Emperor Chongde suddenly raised his eyebrows, and smiled extraordinarily, then looked straight at the man in front of him, and said solemnly: "Ba Ning!" , your concubine must be well protected and let her live longer! I put half of the money in my private treasury into the gambling house—don’t worry, what I suppressed is that your concubine is not only living well , and even give birth to a little prince for you... "
Seeing that his younger brother's blackened face finally relaxed a bit, Emperor Chongde secretly wiped his sweat in his heart, and finally he didn't make people mad. Of course, Emperor Chongde knew that if his wife made people gamble like this, even a saint would be mad. So don't blame Chu Baning.
In order to comfort his newly married younger brother who was rumored to be rumored, Emperor Chongde took Chu Baning's hand and said, "Ba Ning, let's go and have a drink with the emperor!"
Chu Baning broke away without a trace, and said expressionlessly: "Brother Emperor, it's not suitable to drink at this time, and there are ministers who want to see you!"
Emperor Chongde smiled nonchalantly: "It's okay, today is the second day of your wedding, I have already asked Eunuch Liu to declare the decree, don't bother me with irrelevant things!"
For a hard-working and rarely willful emperor, King Su could only drive the ducks to the shelves, and was dragged to the side hall by his elder brother to drink.
The maids in the palace had already prepared chrysanthemum wine and some exquisite appetizers. Two noble men in this country drank the chrysanthemum wine side by side. .
After drinking for three rounds, Emperor Chongde was already slightly drunk, his handsome face was stained red, and he was pulling Chu Baning's hand and talking nonsense: "Ba Ning, I finally hope that you are married, your problem... It should be healed too, right? Over the years, my mother’s heart was really broken because of this incident... We have been able to make it to this day in such a difficult situation, why... "
Chu Baning resisted the urge to throw people out, and said expressionlessly: "Brother Huang, you are drunk!"
"I know... I'm just too happy, so it's so rare to be drunk." Emperor Chongde sat lazily on the couch, let go of Chu Baning's patience limit when he was on the verge of breaking out, and looked at it with a smile on his lips. Looking at the handsome and upright man in front of him, "Don't worry, I've already ordered you to go down, no one will disturb you, let's have a good drink today, brothers."
Knowing that Brother Huang was strict in his work and would never put himself in danger, Chu Baning nodded slightly.
"Hey, Ba Ning, tell the emperor, why are you...willing to be with your concubine? I thought you would spend the night in the study on the wedding night..."
Chu Baning's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot again, if he hadn't thought that this man was the current emperor, he would have almost walked away. Finally, under the pressure of Emperor Chongde's drunkenness, Chu Baning said coldly: "She is my concubine!"
Emperor Chongde looked at him in surprise, thought for a while, and then asked cautiously: "You mean... because the little lady of the Lu family is your princess, something that belongs to you alone, are you willing to touch it?"
Chu Baning remained silent while clinging to the wine cup.
Emperor Chongde casually fiddled with the jade pendant around his waist, and said with a smile: "If that's the case, I'll show you a few more side concubines tomorrow, okay?"
Chu Baning stood up abruptly, flung his long sleeves back, and said coldly: "Brother Emperor, you are drunk, and my brother is going to ask someone to bring you hangover soup!"
Chu Baning strode out of the side hall, saw Eunuch Liu waiting in front of the hall, and said: "The emperor is drunk, let someone cook a bowl of hangover soup! Also, keep your mouth tight, what's going on today..."
"Don't worry, my lord, His Majesty has been approving memorials all day today."
King Su nodded, called the eunuch Mu Yuan'er who was close to him, and went straight out of the palace.
In Su Wang's mansion, Ananda took a very depressing nap. When he woke up, he only felt backache and lazily lay on the bed, not wanting to move.
Suddenly, a hand as long and slender as jade raised the curtain of the bed. Ananda raised his head in astonishment, and saw a man standing in front of the bed with a serious face, thin lips tightly pressed, and long black hair neatly tied around his neck. Under the golden crown, the whole person feels like an old antique professor in a university. At a young age, he is depressed like an old-fashioned old man.
"My lord..."
Ananda still remembered his duty, so he hurriedly got up, but at the next moment, because he moved too fast, he almost slipped to his waist and threw himself on the ground, and when he might face the fate of breaking a leg again, a pair of powerful long legs Her arms wrapped around her waist and brought her to a broad and warm chest.
The mellow man's breath was accompanied by the faint smell of chrysanthemum wine, and Ananda fell straight into the man's arms, his head was dazed.
Chu Baning sent his wife who was like a log in his arms back to the bed, and reprimanded in a hoarse voice: "Why are you so careless? Your foot injury is not healed yet, so you should be more careful."
Ananda quickly recovered, and lowered his head with a serious face, seriously admitting his mistake: "My lord is right, I have been taught."
Ananda scolded some unreliable maids in his heart, and the prince didn't wake her up when he came back. , it's not that we didn't tell you, but that the prince thinks it's dirty and doesn't allow us to enter your bedroom! !
After Ananda complained to the maids in his heart, he carefully raised his eyes to peek at the newly appointed husband who was sitting casually in front of the bed, and met those dark eyes coldly, which made her withdraw quickly. line of sight.
Although it's been two days since they got married, except for the night when they had sex in the bridal chamber, and because of her injury, they didn't have any intimate actions at other times, but at least they slept in the same bed at night. However, Ananda was still not used to this overly serious man, every time he met his dark eyes, she subconsciously wanted to hide, feeling that this man's aura was too strong for her to face up to.
Seeing his little wife looking like a mouse seeing a cat, Chu Baning frowned slightly, remembering that he still had something to discuss with her, so he cleared his throat and said: "The emperor sent two imperial physicians today, you see See where they are suitable to live and make arrangements."
"The concubine knows." Ananda replied, but he was muttering in his heart for no reason, why did the emperor send two imperial physicians to the palace, this is not a joke.
"Also, when you get back to the door tomorrow, if you have anything to prepare, ask the girl to go to Butler Qin. After you get back to the door, the palace will be managed by you."
Ananda looked at him in surprise. Her leg injury is still not healed. If she came back to the door like this, wouldn't she be allowed to take a sedan chair to enter the door? With King Su's obsessive temperament, he will definitely not let the nanny hug her... As for the housekeeper—this is exactly what she wants, and she laboriously holds the power of housekeeper in her hands. , can't shake her position!
"My lord, I haven't paid my respects to the empress and empress, can I go back first?" Ananda asked worriedly. After all, the current queen mother is her serious mother-in-law, and the current queen is a serious sister-in-law, and her status is extremely noble, because She broke her leg this time, and she went back to her natal home before serving tea to them. Isn't she too disrespectful to them
There was no other way, since there were relatives who were too noble, Ananda had to be very careful.
"It's nothing, the rules of returning home in the three dynasties are set by the sage, the king has already said it, the queen mother and the emperor's wife can understand."
Hearing King Su's words, Ananda could only say yes, worried about tomorrow. Could it be that she, the concubine of the prime minister's family who broke her foot, really wanted to go directly to the prime minister's mansion in a sedan chair? Even the eldest sister of the noble concubine doesn't have this kind of treatment, will she be struck by lightning if she does this
