The Concubine of the Red Chamber

Although Jun Zexuan is not used to the eye-catching red, the hustle and bustle along the way, and the people and things he saw on the road, Jun Zexuan feels that he can bear all these things when he is able to marry Jia Lan. See or not, only in this way he will not be so painful, her face is painted with untimely heavy makeup, her face is pale, her cheeks are flushed, her mouth is as red as blood, and the broken hair on her forehead is a bit messy, which is not good-looking. As soon as she opened her eyes, Jun Zexuan couldn't look away, and the faint fragrance of plum blossoms in the air filled his nose all the time, making his mood uncontrollably rising.

The wedding room was very auspiciously furnished, it was all red, just as I imagined, there were not many people, not even eunuchs among the maids and maids, but the only guests were a few that Jia Lan didn’t know Several female relatives, the fifth prince, Gu Qingyan and others, no one spoke, until he lifted his hijab, Jun Zezhu looked at his younger brother with a smile and said: "Since you are married, you are an adult, and you are not allowed to mess around anymore. Take good care of your siblings, you know?"

"En!" Jun Zexuan replied without turning his head, staring at Jia Lan in a daze, with a smile slowly rising on his face, and no one would say anything about him when he looked at her again. Feels great!

Jun Zezhen wanted to say something, but he opened his mouth and didn't know what to say. Gu Qingyan reached out and tugged at his clothes, signaling that it was time to go to the banquet at the prince's side. Neither Jun Zezhen nor Gu Qingyan was married, so he didn't know what to say. What should I say, a trace of sarcasm flashed in Jun Zezhen's eyes, he was very uncomfortable for his brother's hasty wedding today, and at the same time, he felt a bit of resentment towards Emperor Longchang. Others don't know the reason for Xuan'er's marriage this time, but he does know It was clear to him that although the plan was still the same, he was quite resentful for being so wronged by Xuan'er, but seeing Jun Zexuan's rarely happy appearance, it was not good for Jun Zexuan to stay in the new house, so he left quickly.

"Everything is fine with the eighth prince." The prince was married, and Emperor Longchang naturally sat in the hall. After listening to the servant's whisper, he nodded slightly, and then smiled on his face, watching the prince and the princess. Wearing red silk and being sent to the wedding room, she turned to the queen and said, "So, is Zitong at ease?"

The queen's expression froze, she turned her head to Emperor Longchang and said with a smile: "The concubine took the prince to thank His Majesty Long En!" Today's wedding was requested by her, so it seems that the emperor is not completely unfeeling towards the prince, and the queen is very satisfied , Looking at the fifth prince sitting at the table, I felt a little joy in my heart, I just wanted to wait for the birth of my grandson in the next year, then the status of their mother and son would be more stable, and their future confidence would be greater.

"Can I talk now?" After Jun Zexuan left, under Jun Zexuan's black face, several female relatives and maids all retreated, leaving only the two of them in the room, Jia Lan twisted. He twisted his neck and asked softly.

Jun Zexuan came to Jia Lan's side with some joy and said, "Yes, what do you want to say?" Their arms were only a fist away, and Jun Zexuan could smell the faint fragrance of flowers belonging to Jia Lan in the air, and his mood became more and more intense. happy up.

"My crown is so heavy that it hurts my head. I want to ask Hui'er to help me rest, and I don't know how much powder they put on my face. It's very itchy. I want to wash my face." Jia Lan quietly said Glancing at Jun Zexuan, seeing him staring at her all the time, she was somewhat embarrassed, and said quickly.

Jun Zexuan wanted to tell me to help you, he never liked too many people to serve him, but seeing the crown and the hairpins all over his head, he was a little helpless, so he raised his voice to call for someone, Huier Shaoyao is used to being served Yes, knowing her habits, she quickly walked in and helped Jia Lan take care of things.

Although Jia Lan sat most of the day, she didn't drink any water, and she was tired and hungry. After Huier Shaoyao helped her remove her crown and hairpin, washed her hands and face, and put several pairs of bracelets on her wrists Jia Lan breathed a sigh of relief when she took off the heavy wedding dress and changed into light clothes, but before she could speak, her stomach could not help but groan, although Jun Zexuan was still an old man in Jia Lan's eyes. My child, but he was wearing a bright red wedding dress, and his dark eyes kept staring at him. Jia Lan was inevitably a little embarrassed.

"I'm hungry too." Jun Zexuan saw Jia Lan's shyness, but he also felt that he had been busy all day. Although the wedding ceremony was not very tiring, he was very nervous all the time, and he was very hungry at the moment, so he ordered to hurry up. A table of meals came.

Jun Zexuan has always eaten regularly, and the types and arrangement of dishes are also very fixed. However, since Jia Lan was added, how many dishes were added after all? The two palace servants carefully arranged the things. Seeing that Jun Zexuan didn't lose his temper, they quickly backed out.

Jia Lan lived in the palace for more than half a year, and the taste of the food in the palace is not bad, but in the past, it was delivered uniformly in the imperial dining room. They were all piping hot, which made Jia Lan very appetizing.

Jun Zexuan has nothing to be served, and Jia Lan didn't mention it. No matter what she thought before, now that she is married to him, she has to live a good life, and they are both young, so they will not be able to have love in the future. Lan also wanted to cultivate family ties, so she gave Jun Zexuan dishes with a smile and said: "Today's meal is a bit late, it should not be too much, first drink some porridge, and eat some light padding, what do you think? "

"Yeah!" Jun Zexuan nodded, and imitated Jia Lan's actions and picked up a few chopsticks for her and said, "Lan'er, hurry up and eat some, I don't need to be served."

Hearing Jun Zexuan's voice, Jia Lan paused, and suddenly thought of a question, took a big mouthful of Bigeng porridge, and then asked, "What shall I call you in the future! Calling you the eighth prince, the eighth master always feels that it is not kind." , we will be a family in the future, and it is not good to call you by your first name. We are young, so I am embarrassed to hear you..."

Jun Zexuan listened to Jia Lan's words, thought for a while, and thought for a while. At first, the mother concubine called the father emperor the emperor, and the father emperor called the mother concubine Gu concubine. After the mother concubine passed away, she was Gu Guifei again. Not being sealed, Jia Lan said so, he also felt that calling himself the eighth prince was weird.But Husband sounds nice. Although he didn't feel embarrassed, he didn't want Jia Lan to be angry, so he followed her words and said, "Why don't you call me Husband when you're outside, and Xuan'er when you're inside." Okay, I'll call you Lan'er. After two days, I'll go to my father and ask for a name, so I can call you easily in the future."

"It's okay!" It's not a big deal, Jia Lan felt that Xuan'er could still call out, so she nodded, the first meal of the newlyweds, Jia Lan ate pretty good, and Jun Zexuan was very attractive. , people are easy to talk, Jia Lan's mood is getting better and better.

After eating, Jia Lan went down to the quiet room with the maid's service, took a bath again, waited for her to talk to Jun Zexuan for a while, and after her hair was dry, she lay side by side on the wedding bed, Jia Lan was about to close her eyes and go to sleep At that time, Jun Zexuan suddenly stretched out his hand from the quilt and pulled Jia Lan's arm. After pulling her hand out, Jia Lan turned his head and saw the dim light shining through the candles through the window curtain. eyes, smiled, did not speak, and then closed his eyes.

Jun Zexuan once secretly hugged Jia Lan in his arms when she was sleeping, but after she got angry, she never dared to do it again. Lying together so aboveboard, she could still touch arms and hold hands, Jun Zexuan After holding her little hand in a good mood for a while, he uncovered his own quilt, pulled up Jia Lan's quilt and got in, took a deep breath, and closed his eyes satisfied.

Because of her young age, Jia Lan didn't expect what Jun Zexuan would do to her, even if the consummation of the house is impossible, she slept quite comfortably, but she was still depressed after waking up. Zexuan's temptation is great.

"Xuan'er, get up and wash up!" Jia Lan didn't care about thinking too much, there was a shouting sound outside the door, so she reached out and pushed Jun Zexuan to wake him up.

Jun Zexuan hadn't slept so contentedly for a long time, and when he woke up and saw Jia Lan again, he couldn't help but feel soaring, and raised the corners of his lips, which surprised Jia Lan for once.

Jun Zexuan himself is very delicate, and he rarely showed a smile before. He has a bad temper all the year round, and it gives people a feeling that his brain is not normal, so his reputation is extremely bad.But such a smile made Jia Lan think a lot.

"Get up quickly, I have to go to pay my respects after cleaning up!" Jia Lan was a little glad that the queen is not her own mother-in-law, so she doesn't have to wait on her every day, but today's greeting is inevitable.

After the prince got married, he didn't need to study, but Jun Zexuan and Jia Lan were exceptions. The queen had sent a female officer to teach Jia Lan. Jun Zexuan would continue to study after the five-day wedding holiday.For the first time, Jun Zexuan left the bed very nostalgic, and then asked someone to come in to pack up something to eat, and then took Jia Lan to pay respects to Emperor Longchang and Empress Xu respectively.

"Serve Xiaoba well in the future..." Emperor Longchang looked at Jia Lan's fair and neat appearance, and thought that his son married a concubine daughter because of his own reasons, and looked at his confidant who was standing by the screen and nodded, then he knew the truth After the master and the national teacher Mu Congzi had seen it, he waved his hand and rewarded them with a lot of things, but he didn't say much to the two children, so he let them go quickly.

Jun Zexuan doesn't love places with many people. Since his 'illness', he basically rarely pays respects to Empress Xu. Empress Xu looked at the marriage that she had facilitated and looked at Jia Lan with a bewildered expression. Jun Zexuan He also looked childish, and because he already knew that the prince and concubine had consummated their marriage, he said a few words to them in a good mood, and then let them leave under Jun Zexuan's urging.

"Things that can't be put on the table..." Empress Xu also knew that Jun Zexuan didn't love many people. Seeing him pulling Jia Lan away in a hurry, she understood that he wanted to avoid the concubines and princes and princesses who greeted her. It was a bit ironic. shook his head.

"Now that the crown princess has married in, the crown prince's body looks good, and the empress should take her heart back." Chang Momo stepped forward to squeeze the queen's shoulders and said in relief.

Empress Xu sighed in her heart when she heard the words, and said softly: "You can rest assured there, it's not that Mammy doesn't know that the emperor doesn't take the prince seriously. Heart! It is really hard to be at peace!"

"Your Majesty is thinking too much. The Eighth Prince is very happy. He thinks that he will have a long life and a healthy life after he comes. Whether he will be very happy or not." Nanny Chang continued following the queen's tone.

Empress Xu nodded, and said softly: "I hope so!" Emperor Longchang's temperament became more and more elusive. Although she didn't know why this time she got what she wanted this time, she always felt that something was not right.Originally, Emperor Longchang was considerate yesterday because the prince's body specially made people postpone today's greeting, but he didn't let people tell the eighth prince. Although she was happy in her heart, she also felt a little strange.

Jun Zexuan's popularity in the palace was not good. Because he was quite favored, he told the "truth" several times in front of Emperor Longchang, which caused several princes and princesses to be implicated and reprimanded, so he kept a cold face and added His temperament is also very strange, and he has imperial guards, so there are very few people looking for trouble in front of him on weekdays.However, after the news that Jun Zexuan wanted to marry the concubine of Rongguo Duke's mansion to celebrate the crown prince's happiness, the princes and princesses understood that in Emperor Longchang's heart, he was not that important.

"Eighth brother, eighth...brother and sister, where are you going?" Not long after he came out of the queen's palace, Jun Zexuan met the three princesses who wanted to greet the queen, and the second princess Yongping asked with a smile.

Before Jia Lan could answer, Jun Zexuan dragged her away. He seldom spoke to anyone other than the fifth prince, Emperor Longchang, but Jia Lan couldn't help but leave a sentence: "Dear me!" Sister Huang, Sister Second, Sister Fifth, forgive me..."

"Big sister, why did the eighth younger brother get married and still be so unreasonable?" Princess Yongping looked at Princess Yuan'an and frowned.

Princess Yuan'an was in a good mood because the prince finally got married yesterday, and she said: "Eighth brother has always been like this, sister don't need to forgive, let's go quickly! It will be bad if the prince's elder brother arrives first." However, the queen mother did not stay When the eighth brother greeted the little concubine, Princess Yuan An frowned, feeling inappropriate.

"Today's greeting time is half an hour later than usual. Didn't anyone tell you?" Jun Zexuan's yard is adjacent to Jun Zexuan's. I just learned that they have gone to pay their respects. Not only is the time not delayed, but it is actually It was a moment too early to know that no one had informed them of Emperor Longchang's will at the wedding banquet last night, so he asked with a serious face.

Jun Zexuan glanced at Jun Zexuan and said, "No."

"Kou Huai'en, what's the matter?" Jun Zezhu hurriedly asked after watching the eunuch Xiao Kouzi come back.

"If you go back to the master, it is because the eighth prince is healthier than the prince, so there is no need to postpone the time of greeting." When Xiao Kouzi heard his master calling his name, he knew that he was not in a good mood, and he said, "I just realized the truth. The master and the national teacher have just left the palace."
