Chapter 340 Crown Princess 4
"Brother Crown Prince, you didn't expect that now it's our turn to make trouble in your bridal chamber."
"Brother Crown Prince, congratulations!"
"Brother Crown Prince, you and your sister-in-law have finally come to an end of all the hardships!"
"Lift the veil and go to the front hall to drink. Second brother, don't blame the brothers for forcing you to drink! After all, it's a happy day, we won't leave until we're drunk!"
"Hahaha!"
In the room, Sheng Huan, wearing a red veil, was thinking about the original owner's wishes and memories. Outside the door, the sound of several men laughing and congratulating could be heard.
Then, the sound came closer and closer, and with a creak, the door of the bridal chamber was opened.
The groom came in from outside with a group of brothers following him.
"Please lift the veil, my lord, and I will be happy from now on!"
The matchmaker came in happily and presented the Ruyi pole while saying flattering words.
With a "swish!", not long after the matchmaker finished speaking, Sheng Huan felt a gust of wind blowing, and the next moment, the veil on his head was blown away.
Her eyes lit up and she subconsciously looked up, meeting the man's narrow, dark eyes.
The prince is worthy of being a prince, with handsome features, outstanding temperament, and a calm elegance in his dignity. Now in a wedding dress, he looks even taller and slenderer, and his confidence also has a spirit that is unique to young people.
The prince at this time was a treasure in Kangxi's heart, so naturally everything went smoothly and he was in high spirits.
While Sheng Huan was looking at the prince, Prince Yinreng was also looking at her.
The woman in front of him was stunningly beautiful with dignified features. She fit the image of the Crown Princess as graceful and polite, and also the image that the Emperor had told him about. However, when her eyes moved, there was a different kind of liveliness in them. She did not look as dignified as she had been in her previous appearances.
This is his Crown Princess.
Yinreng gently stroked the Ruyi Rod, his eyes slightly deep, and raised the corners of his lips towards Sheng Huan: "Crown Princess."
Sheng Huan also looked up at him, his eyebrows slightly curved, and said reservedly: "Your Highness the Crown Prince."
"Wow!"
The few princes who were watching on the side couldn't help but burst into good-natured laughter.
"This is my second sister-in-law. She is so beautiful. My second brother is so lucky!"
The teasing of a few little kids kept Sheng Huan calm and composed.
However, Yinreng was too close to his own Crown Princess, and he discovered that the Crown Princess, who looked calm on the outside, had her long and curly eyelashes trembled slightly when her brothers started to jeer. Although her expression did not change and she was still smiling dignifiedly, it was just that -
His eyes slowly lingered on the woman's round earlobes, which had been stained red without him knowing when. His eyes moved downward to the woman's hands placed flat on her knees. The woman's hands were unconsciously tightened slightly, showing that her heart was not actually calm, or perhaps - she was still feeling shy.
Yinreng couldn't tell what he was thinking, but he was obviously in a good mood. He looked up at his brothers and said:
"Okay, don't scare your sister-in-law. The bride has seen it too. Didn't she just say she wanted to go drink? Go now!"
"What do you mean, second brother? Are you going to leave your younger brothers behind to accompany sister-in-law? Second brother, we agreed not to come back until we are drunk." The Tenth Prince said mischievously.
The prince coughed lightly, smiled and said nothing.
The Ninth Prince's eyes rolled at this moment, and he suddenly bowed to Sheng Huan who was sitting on the bed, "Sister-in-law, I am Yinzhen, the ninth child. I will borrow your second brother from you first. Don't worry, I will only borrow him for a while, and I will definitely send him back safely. I will definitely not let him miss the wedding night!"
"Second sister-in-law, what do you think?"
After the Ninth Prince finished speaking, everyone looked at the bride on the bed.
"I have no objection." Sheng Huan raised his eyebrows: "As for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, that depends on His Royal Highness the Crown Prince himself."
Sheng Huan was smiling, neither humble nor arrogant, and he didn't seem shy at all. As he spoke, he looked at the prince.
The prince looked at the calm princess consort, and sure enough, he saw her rubbing her fingers again, and he couldn't help laughing.
He suppressed his smile and said, "I have asked the palace servants to prepare dinner. I think the Crown Princess will be hungry today. Please enjoy it first. I will go to the front hall to greet the guests. I will be back soon."
Although the prince did not need to toast, he still had to greet people in the front hall.
"Yeah." Sheng Huan nodded.
"Don't worry, sister-in-law. We won't let your brother get drunk." The Ninth Prince made assurances before leaving.
The prince and his companions left quickly.
Soon after they left, palace servants served dinner.
Not long after Sheng Huan finished his meal, the prince came back unexpectedly.
"Your Highness."
Sheng Huan bowed slightly.
"No need to be so polite, Princess."
Yinreng stepped forward and held her hand.
The two of them were very close for a moment, close enough that they could smell each other's fragrance, especially Yinreng. It was just an ordinary support, and there was cloth between them, but for some reason, he felt that the touch under his hand was particularly delicate.
He was not a young boy anymore, but maybe it was because of the atmosphere at the moment, he still felt a little hot.
"Second brother, drink the wedding wine first, don't be too impatient to enter the bridal chamber!"
Outside the house, a certain elder brother's voice suddenly came.
Yinreng's eyes paused slightly, and Shenghuan's body seemed to stiffen for a moment, and the two of them looked mechanically at the closed door.
Yinreng patted Sheng Huan's hand in a soothing manner and raised his voice to the outside of the room: "Tenth Elder, don't think I can't recognize your voice. Is Ninth Elder also here? Hurry up and leave, or else, don't blame me for having the palace people blast you away."
Outside the house, the ninth and eleventh princes, who were leaning against the door frame and eavesdropping, froze.
They looked at each other awkwardly.
"Let's go, let's go. Don't be angry, brother and sister-in-law. We are leaving now!"
After the tenth prince finished speaking, he took his ninth brother's hand and couldn't help but mutter: "Second brother is so stingy."
Inside the room, the Crown Prince had no idea of the Tenth Prince's criticism of him. He took Sheng Huan to the table and sat down.
"Although the ninth and tenth brothers are unreliable, some of their words do make sense."
The prince poured two glasses of wine himself and handed one glass to Sheng Huan: "Crown Princess, wedding wine."
Sheng Huan reached out to take it, but his fingers unconsciously touched the prince's hand.
She was startled, raised her head slightly, and their eyes met.
On this special and auspicious day, as soon as their eyes met, something felt wrong, ambiguity arose, and the atmosphere was sticky.
The prince also felt a little uncomfortable. Although there were many women in his backyard, the prince's wife was obviously different.
"Your Highness, I respect you."
In this sticky atmosphere, Sheng Huan spoke first, his brows and eyes calm and composed, but Yinreng thought about how the Crown Princess' ears had turned red at the teasing of his younger brothers just now, and he wondered how embarrassed the Crown Princess was feeling at this moment.
"Dry."
The two of them intertwined their wrists, their skin touching, and drank the cup of wedding wine.
After drinking it, perhaps because he couldn't handle the alcohol, Yinreng found that his Crown Princess's jade-like cheeks suddenly turned red.
This touch of red also revealed a crack in the gracefulness between the woman's brows, adding an almost unnoticeable charm, making her look much more lively than before.
His eyes moved slightly, and he took her hand and lifted her up horizontally.
"Princess, please settle down."
