Reborn to marry the emperor, I just want to confuse the emperor and seize the throne
Chapter 18 Don't have a wedding night
After Concubine Su and Butler Cao left, Prince Heng's Mansion became quiet. Jiang Fenghua went straight back to Lanyue Pavilion, while Su Tingwan was arranged to stay in the Sandalwood Courtyard in the west courtyard.
At this time, Xie Shang inexplicably caught up with Jiang Fenghua and asked, "Is your foot better?"
Jiang Fenghua didn't expect Xie Shang to chase her to Lanyue Pavilion, after all, Su Tingwan had already entered the mansion.
She thought that Xie Shang would not marry Su Tingwan so soon in this life, but she didn't expect that he still couldn't escape the fate of the previous life.
Su Tingwan still entered the mansion on March 24th.
She bowed slightly, "Much better."
Xie Shang clearly remembered that she walked very slowly, probably because she had not yet recovered. "The medicinal wine from the Imperial Hospital is very useful and has a very good effect."
"I know. It doesn't hurt so much now after applying the medicinal wine. I don't need anyone's support to walk anymore." Jiang Fenghua said in a distant tone with seductive eyes.
"You got burned today," Xie Shang asked her nonsensically.
Jiang Fenghua's eyes widened, but he quickly reacted and took the initiative to lift up his sleeves, revealing his white wrists, slender and white fingers, and his nails were trimmed round and beautiful.
These were the most beautiful hands he had ever seen.
She said gently, "I applied the ointment and it's fine now. It's just a little red, but it's nothing serious. Thank you for your concern, Your Highness."
"It's getting late. Your Majesty has been busy all day. Concubine Su must still be waiting for Your Majesty. Fenghua will not invite Your Majesty to drink tea."
He said anxiously, "Thank you, I didn't expect it to cause such a big commotion."
Jiang Fenghua paused, "This kind of thing should be handled by me as the princess, Your Majesty, there is no need to thank me."
After saying that, she turned and left without a trace of nostalgia.
Xie Shang clenched his fists and hid them in his sleeves. "I still have official business to attend to. Let's go to the study."
That night, a lamp as big as a bean was burning in the dim study. It was pitch black all around. Xie Shang sat lazily on the couch, his eyes flashing with coldness. His whole body was filled with chill. He said in a cold voice, "Have you found out who ordered the people who spread rumors in the city today?"
"I am incompetent and have not found out yet." The man kneeling on the ground was dressed in black. His figure did not appear in the light and shadow. He lowered his head respectfully, making people feel that there was no one there.
A faint voice came out: "The other party did not leave any clues, but I am sure that it must be women who spread the news. They should know how to disguise themselves."
Xie Shang really couldn't understand the other party's purpose in spreading these rumors, so he took advantage of the opportunity to spread these rumors into the palace to let the emperor and empress know.
The emperor would be furious if he knew what he did outside the palace...
He said calmly: "Back off!"
After the black shadow left, Xie Shang extinguished the lamp, straightened her brocade robe, and walked out of the study. Thinking of Jiang Fenghua's words just now, her expression was calm and expressionless, as if as soon as Su Tingwan entered the mansion, there was an unbridgeable gap between them.
I still remember that she was lying in his arms crying heartbroken the day before, but today when she appeared outside the palace gate, she was calm and dignified, neither humble nor arrogant, and she scared those people with just a few words.
There was a bright moon in the sky. In the dark night, he stood tall and slender in the corridor, his figure as straight as a pine tree and his gait as smooth as the wind. He walked towards the sandalwood courtyard without hesitation.
Su Tingwan has never gone out since she was sent to Sandalwood Courtyard. Nanny Wang sent people to guard the door, so she was under surveillance every step she took. So she simply did not go out until Xie Shang appeared in the courtyard of Sandalwood Courtyard.
Xie Shang stepped in and said to the people guarding the door, "You are treating my concubine as a prisoner, right? Get out of here."
The two of them quickly stepped back and bowed respectfully, "Your Majesty, please calm down."
Su Tingwan opened the door and rushed into Xie Shang's arms, "Ah Shang, I finally see you. They wouldn't let me look for you."
Xie Shang patted her head lovingly, "I'm here now, aren't I?"
She pulled Xie Shang into the house, closed the door with a clang, and bolted it.
Stewards Li and Zhang, who were guarding the door, were stunned by the scene and looked at each other, unable to utter a word. How could this be the behavior of a lady from a noble family, for her to be so impatient?
Inside the house, Su Tingwan's face turned red, and her shy look was sending out signals, "Ah Shang will stay with me tonight!"
Xie Shang felt a little unfamiliar with Su Tingwan when he saw her like this. In his impression, she always rejected him.
His body was a little stiff, his clenched knuckles gradually turned white and then loosened, as if to let the peerless face in his mind disappear. He nodded, "Yes, tonight is our wedding night."
"Wanwan..." He held her face and kissed her passionately until she panted heavily and led him to the bed.
He didn't know why, even though he kissed her as much as he could, he couldn't enter the next state.
She lay passively on the bed, as if she was ready and waiting for him to attack her at any time, but her next move was slow to come.
Su Tingwan also noticed something strange and took the initiative to kiss him back, but he still wasn't into it.
She was annoyed and wondered why he didn't take off her clothes.
Although they liked each other before, they had never done anything to separate men and women. She had great self-respect and self-love, and he also had great self-respect and self-esteem.
Su Tingwan was not raised in a boudoir, so she had never experienced such a thing. However, because there were too many concubines in the mansion and her father was too romantic, she had always seen pigs running even though she had never eaten pork.
As her emotions reached a deep level, her body began to tremble unconsciously, and she whispered softly, "Ah Shang..."
At this time, there was a hurried knock on the door, "Your Majesty, something big has happened in the government office, please go there quickly!"
Xie Shang woke up instantly and asked in a deep voice, "What's the matter?"
Lin Feng said anxiously outside, "A murder has occurred. The deceased is Yang Jing, the Minister of Justice. Someone has come to the government office and is waiting in the front hall. The prince is now the prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture... We must go."
Lin Feng had seen Su Tingwan and the prince getting along. Before they confirmed their relationship, she was carefree and well-behaved, but later on, she would hug, embrace, kiss and peck him all the time, and he couldn't bear to watch it.
Xie Shang is now the prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture. If a major murder occurs in Shengjing, he will definitely be present to preside over the case. Moreover, the deceased is a high-ranking official of the second rank. Who would have the courage and ability to kill the Minister of Justice?
He stood up and began to straighten his robes. "Go out and let them know. I'll be right there."
After a while, Xie Shang dressed neatly and was about to go out. Su Tingwan's eyes flashed with anger, "Do we have to go tonight?"
Xie Shang comforted her gently, "Wait for me to come back." Then he turned around and left the dormitory.
Su Tingwan's clothes were disheveled, but she didn't even untie her belt. Her eyes were full of disappointment. No matter what, tonight was their wedding night and she had been looking forward to it for a long time.
