When Li Xiang opened his eyes in a daze, he realized where he was lying. It turned out that he was drunk and rolling around after entering the house. Cheng Luan was afraid that Li Xiang would fall, so he put Li Xiang on his lap. He had been sleeping for more than an hour.
From Li Xiang's angle, Cheng Luan was still covered with a red veil. Li Xiang felt a little embarrassed and quickly got up. Although he didn't want to get up from her soft thighs, he had to go through the necessary procedures, otherwise he would have to keep the veil on.
"I'm really sorry, I drank a little too much today."
Li Xiang didn't expect that the two of them would start chatting in this way for the first time.
"Your Highness is tired, it's okay."
Compared with Cheng Yaojin, Cheng Luan is indeed a lady from a noble family. This is also related to Cheng Yaojin's idea. Although he was born in a peasant family, he must educate all the girls in the family. His two sons are the same as him, but these girls are all well educated.
Listening to Cheng Luan's gentle voice, Li Xiang also felt a little dizzy.
When Cheng Luan wanted to say something else, his mouth was blocked. There was no one else in the room, so there were no messy rules. It was the wedding night, and every moment of the spring night was worth a thousand gold. Who had the time to chat here?
There were still many people outside waiting to eavesdrop, but Li Xiang did not have such a habit. He asked his men to come over early. After driving these people away, he did not leave anyone within ten feet.
The night's tossing and turning passed quickly. Although Cheng Luan was a little unbearable, she also knew that this was a manifestation of Li Xiang's love for her.
When I came here, some elders in the family also said that I would definitely not be able to bear it the night before, but as a woman, I have to endure it. If I can't even satisfy my husband in this aspect, then don't expect to live a good life in the future. I will definitely find concubines one after another.
Among the nobles in Chang'an City, Cheng Yaojin had few concubines, but his family was in chaos, with the wives fighting openly and secretly with each other. Cheng Luan also wanted to live a better life. Although he could not stop Li Xiang from looking for more women, he would delay this day as long as possible, so even if it was not very comfortable, he would let Li Xiang do as he pleased.
At dawn the next day, even though Cheng Luan was not feeling well, he got up early to prepare clothes for Li Xiang. He was going to the palace to see the emperor soon, so there was no time to waste.
Li Xiang felt a little headache after a night of making love. He didn't expect that this young wife was really good and served him like a master.
Li Xiang's two maids did not get out of bed the next day, but Cheng Luan still got up. They were going to the palace together to express their gratitude. If Cheng Luan was not there, there would be countless rumors outside.
"I have to apologize again. Last night, under the influence of alcohol..."
Fortunately, there were only the young couple in the room. If there were someone else, Li Xiang would not know how to say this.
"Your Highness, stop talking. Come and wash up. We need to go to our father's place."
Cheng Luan's face flushed red. She was still a young girl yesterday, but today she has become the crown prince's wife. Even so, she is still a young person and is very thin-skinned.
When the two were almost dressed, the maids outside came in. Li Xiang's two maids and Cheng Luan's two maids should have come to pay their respects yesterday, but because Li Xiang drank too much, this process was skipped and the four of them met in the servants' room.
Now they all knelt down in front of the two men. From then on, all the work in the room was basically done by these four maids, who were the legendary maids.
"This is Mingyue Caixia who has always served me."
After Cheng Luan finished speaking, the two maids knelt down in front of Li Xiang. With Li Xiang's character and ability, Mingyue Caixia was willing to be Li Xiang's concubine.
"The rules here are not that strict. You should serve your young lady well in the future. I am usually at the border. You just need to live a good life."
After Li Xiang finished speaking, Miss Mengqing took out two bags of silver, which contained about thirty to fifty taels of silver, and placed them directly in Mingyue's hands.
Then the two girls, Mengqin and Mengling, paid their respects to Cheng Luan, and from now on she would be the mistress of the family.
These processes should have been carried out last night. Although they were postponed to today, they went very smoothly. The maids were already very familiar with each other. Mingyue and Caixia had not served Li Xiang yet, but Mengqin and Mengling had already consummated their marriage with Li Xiang.
According to Li Xiang's idea, Cheng Luan might be very jealous, but unexpectedly, after Cheng Luan gave the two maids a gift, he didn't think there was anything wrong with it. This kind of thing is very normal in a wealthy family, not to mention that Li Xiang is the crown prince.
Take some idle princes in the capital for example. Those who are about the same age as Li Xiang already have more than a dozen wives and concubines at home, and some even have two or three children, so it is normal for them to have a few maids. Compared with those people, Li Xiang only has two maids, which is much less.
In fact, it is the same in every era. Powerful people have many women, and it is difficult for poor people to find a wife.
"Your Highness, it's almost time."
Because of the arrival of Cheng Luan, although Qian Ping is a eunuch, he cannot come into this room casually. From now on, all the work in this room will be done by the maids.
If these four maids became pregnant, new ones would have to replace them immediately. The pregnant ones could become concubines. This could be the most glorious moment in the maids' lives. If the children performed well in the future and Li Xiang could successfully become the emperor, the status of these people would become higher and higher.
When Li Xiang heard Qian Ping's voice, he felt a little uncomfortable. Although it was almost time to meet Li Shimin, Li Xiang knew that after the wedding, Li Shimin would definitely not let him rest in the capital. Li Xiang had to go to the northwest in person to take care of the affairs. He really couldn't bear to leave his new wife.
It is said that even a hero cannot resist the temptation of a beautiful woman. Li Xiang has experienced this this time. His new wife is very delicate. If she just leaves like this, no one will be happy.
But right now, I have to get down to business. First, I have to pay my respects to Li Chengqian and his wife, then go to the palace to pay my respects to Li Shimin, and then go to Cheng Yaojin. There are so many procedures...
