The banquet for moving into a new house, dispersed at dusk, left Ruyue of Yanling unsatisfied.
Alas, being the Lady Consort of Marquis Wenxin's Mansion is nothing but trouble.
Ruyue of Yanling drank some Sangluo wine and listened to Jinzhen talk about some gossip she brought back from outside.
This Jinzhen, Ruyue of Yanling simply adores her. Not only does she handle the abacus deftly, but she also makes an effort to cheer her up. If it weren't for the intention to temper Jinzhen's temperament, Ruyue of Yanling would have loved to take Jinzhen with her immediately.
"Your Highness, the Eastern Prince has returned," Green Cloud whispered.
After hearing this, Ruyue of Yanling pursed her lips.
She had thought it was Gu Xingchen who had returned.
Gu Xingchen, that guy, won't really be bored with her as a dead fish and lose interest from now on, right? Haha, where can he Gu Xingchen hide and for how long. With Ruyue of Yanling's interest in something, she never fails. In her previous life, she was restrained; in this life, she will only be impolite.
"Your Highness, you seem very disappointed," Jinzhen boldly teased.
The moment the words fell, Dong Fang Shiyan entered, bowing three times in greeting.
"Where is Eastern Prince He Lan?" Ruyue of Yanling smiled warmly, her eyes serene.
"Roujia, Qin'er is not feeling well, I had a doctor look at her," Dongfang Shiyan whispered.
Oh, whether it's really or not that He Lan Qin'er is not feeling well, Dongfang Shiyan doesn't linger. That means he, Dongfang Shiyan, will have to talk to her, Ruyue of Yanling, about the three-day return to the in-laws' home.
In fact, there's nothing to talk about in the three-day return to the in-laws' home. Just show a couple in love.
Ruyue of Yanling felt a bit disappointed and said straight out, "Eastern Prince Dongfang, there's no need to worry. Although we haven't consummated our marriage, of course I won't force you to, as some unpleasant things have happened and there are some psychological issues between us, which is normal. However, as long as I am the Lady Consort of Marquis Wenxin's Mansion for a single day, I will always give you enough face and defend you in front of His Majesty and the Empress Dowager."
"Your Highness, you are doing a good deed, but it will be unfortunate for my maid. If Her Majesty the Queen wants to care for you and catches me for questioning, my mouth is leaky. However, I don't want to say the truth either. I say that He Lan Lady has been living in Eastern Prince Dongfang's Lixue Pavilion, like an unmarried male and an unmarried female, which is really shameful." Jinzhen folded her arms across her waist and rolled her eyes.
Watching from the screen, Dongfang Shiyan showed signs of anger and quickly made a gesture to pinch Jinzhen's cheek, teasing, "You little thing, you're talking nonsense again. Your Highness has never been a petty person."
"Eastern Prince Dongfang, please rest assured that the Queen Mother will never do such a silly thing." Ruyue of Yanling assumed a serious expression.
"Roujia, I'm sorry. It was I who neglected you." Dongfang Shiyan bowed deeply and looked full of guilt.
"Eastern Prince Dongfang, there's no need to worry about the Emperor either. The Emperor has always supported my marriage to you and would never break us apart. However, if the Emperor has said some unpleasant things to you in private, don't let it bother you." Ruyue of Yanling felt sleepy facing Dongfang Shiyan, yawned repeatedly.
"Too bad, Eastern Prince Dongfang doesn't seem to have good sense. Why is he standing here all of a sudden?" Ruyue of Yanling couldn't help but feel sleepy and asked.
"Roujia, are you free tonight?" Dongfang Shiyan whispered, looking down at his shoes.
Haha, is Dongfang Shiyan here to consummate the marriage?
"Excuse me, Ruyue of Yanling in this life doesn't want to touch Dongfang Shiyan."
"Eastern Prince Dongfang, you don't mind that I'm not clean?" Ruyue of Yanling smiled more gracefully and had already come up with a strategy in her heart.
"Roujia, I've come to my senses," Dongfang Shiyan's ears flushed a faint red.
"But, Your Highness, I can't understand either," Ruyue of Yanling pretending to be helpless and sighing.
If Gu Xingchen had come early tonight, there would be no business for Dongfang Shiyan.
