Chapter 21: Wishful thinking

On the second day of the wedding, Mu Bai and Xiao Wu both wore bright red robes, and the two followed Cheng Lie's wedding team in the car to go to the palace of the Witch Spirit King in the Nine Hidden City to pick up their relatives.

Entering the Wuling Palace, Xiao Wu thought that the greeting etiquette was cumbersome, and he slipped out of the team and wandered around. Seeing a maid walking by with a tray of wine brewed by the White Deer Clan, Xiao Wu reached out to take it, only to hear a loud male voice behind her.

"Lu Xiaowu, is that you?"

Hearing someone shouting her name, Xiao Wu turned her head sharply and saw a burly man in an ochre-red brocade robe, looking at her with a smile on his lips.

Xiao Wu recognized that he was Chenyou, the prince of the Wuling clan who had teased her, Xiao Wu immediately smiled, rolled her eyes, and said disdainfully: "What are you calling me for?

Chen You stepped forward to catch Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu dodged and looked, the two of you went back and forth for a few rounds, she was still caught by Chen You's wrist and couldn't move, looking at the little girl's anger, as if she first met the little girl, Chen You smiled and said, "Little person, it's quite a grudge...... I ask you, do you want to drink the wine at home?".

The two were very close, and Chenyou saw that the girl in front of him had just grown up, and all that came to her face was the fresh breath of a girl, her apricot face and peach cheeks were red lips and white teeth, like a small peach blossom blooming in early spring, and the pair of black and smart eyes that he couldn't forget, like dingdong spring water, were squinting at himself with anger, arrogance and disdain.

Xiao Wu shook off Chenyou's hand and rubbed her wrist, with a look of contempt and disgust, "So what?"

"Yes! Then Xiao Wang often enters the palace and personally brings you wine to ensure that you have endless hometown wine...... How about it?

Chenyou had long heard from the mouth of the beauty of the White Deer Clan, how Xiao Wu could drink, how to become the king of children, and many other things, and he was always interested in Xiao Wu.

Chenyou only learned later, the little girl who went to be an accompaniment, had been engaged to the second prince of the demon king, for this reason, he had a big quarrel with his father who had been hiding from him, but the wood was already helpless, Chenyou was really sad about this for a while.

Xiao Wu raised her head, pursed her lips, and glanced at Chenyou proudly, thinking that people were also well-intentioned after all, her tone of voice slowed down a lot, and said, "Hmph, no! What do I want Lu Xiaowu? There will be at any time, why do you have to be troublesome."

"Xiao Wu, you're running around again, there's something on that side, come with me"

Chenyou saw that a handsome and noble son who was as white as the moonlight and did not stain the dust walked over quickly with a clear glow and nobility, although the words were a little strange, but there was a lot of love and concern in his clear eyes. He only had the little girl in his eyes, took her hand and left, completely ignoring and turning a blind eye to Chenyou who was standing aside.

When Xiao Wu saw Mu Bai, she immediately smiled like a flower, ran over and hugged one of his arms in one hand, pointed to the rows of wine jars with the other, and said, "Mu Bai, you see, there are a lot of wine in my hometown here!"

Mu Bai looked at Xiao Wu with a side face gently, and carefully combed her windswept hair behind her ears, and the two looked at each other, both smiling with a spring breeze on their faces.

Chenyou watched the two red-clothed young men go away intimately, and he knew that Mu Bai, who was called by Xiao Wu, was the second prince of the Demon King. I really didn't expect Xiao Wu's fiancé to be so elegant and beautiful, even more beautiful than a woman. Isn't it true that he is a dying man who can't stand up when he is sick?

Knowing that he couldn't afford to provoke the second prince, Chenyou was worried and confused. He was deeply hurt by Mu Bai's nobility and contempt, as well as Xiao Wu's arrogance and disdain. Chenyou was both envious and jealous, and of course, there was even more indignation and hatred in his heart.

Chenyou gritted his teeth and secretly swore that one day, he would let Lu Xiaowu, who didn't know how to lift or do what to do, bow his head and kneel down in front of him.

Cheng Lie and his entourage, the bride with a happy face behind the veil, greeted the Wude Hall of Dajingyang Palace with loud and unprecedented pomp and circumstance all the way, where Cheng Lie and Fuxiang held a worship ceremony. Because she only married a side concubine, the demon king and queen will not come to participate.

After the salute, Fuxiang was sent to her dormitory, Shaoguang Palace. Fuxiang sat on the edge of the couch with a veil, and after a commotion, only a group of palace maids waiting, her personal attendant ** Li looked at it, and the palace attendants who were busy in and out of each other, and said: "You all go down first."

"Yes!", all the palace attendants responded, and they all retreated.

After Yin Li saw everyone leaving, she walked to Fuxiang's side and whispered: "Princess, it's all out, let's move and eat some snacks, the princess hasn't eaten much in the past few days."

Fuxiang lifted the veil, and a faint reserved smile hung on his face. The father's plan to cast a spell on the eldest prince Cheng Lie and disguise himself to be defiled should have been completed by now, and she finally got her wish to marry the eldest prince, and a heart that had been hanging uneasy could finally be put in her stomach.

What Fuxiang didn't expect was that the eldest prince was really a gentleman, not only did he not pass the buck, but he also married her as he said. She loves the eldest prince Cheng Lie, loves his heroic and majestic appearance, loves his ambition and heroic demeanor in front of everyone, she will definitely serve him well, love him, let her father help him ascend to the throne of the demon king as soon as possible, and also help herself become his queen as soon as possible.

With infinite anticipation, Fuxiang took a long breath, stood up, stretched her waist, and looked around at the place where she was going to start a new life.

I saw that the dormitory was decorated with red silk, red lanterns, red happy characters, red curtains, red bedding, red carpets, red candles and red household items. It's just that...... There is nothing else except red, and it seems that a mind is to fill the dormitory with red things, and I always feel that I am missing a little heart.

For his own marriage, his father transferred thousands of pots of flowers from the world, and dressed his palace in the capital with flowers, purple and red, and there was not even a pot of flowers here, and a trace of loss began to spread in Fuxiang's heart.

"Princess, come over and have some snacks", Yin Li took out the snack box and put it on the table, and began to greet Fuxiang.

Fuxiang glanced at her dissatisfied, and the maid Li, who had been taking care of her since she was a child, reminded: "It's time for you to change your name."

Yin Li raised her head, smiled brightly, and said playfully: "Yes! Yes, Niangniang! It's a slave and maid's mistake, and she should be beaten...... Public...... Oh, mother, I'm afraid the eldest prince won't be able to come here until late, so you better eat a little first, so that you can ...... Strength."

"Poor mouth!", Fuxiang snorted, sat down at the table, picked up a piece of osmanthus cake that he liked to eat on weekdays and chewed it slowly.

Yin Li was waiting for the refreshments while chanting, "Niangniang, today's honor guard is really magnificent...... However, the scene after entering the palace was more ...... than imagined It's a little smaller...... However, I heard that the scene of the eldest prince's banquet is very large, it is said that there are as many as a thousand people, and the princes and lords of all over the country have come to congratulate them.

In fact, Fuxiang also discovered that all the scenes for others to see were very grand, but the private ones were very hasty, and this feeling was even noticed by Yin Li, and it would not be good if it was spread out, Fuxiang hurriedly shouted coldly: "Don't talk nonsense! All links are agreed in advance, how can there be anything big or small? This is not a home, remember to be cautious in words and deeds in the future."

Yin Li saw that the princess was unhappy, and hurriedly saluted, "Yes, Niangniang, it's the slave who lost her words."

Fuxiang saw it right, Cheng Lie has always been unhappy with this marriage, he is aware that now the Wuling clan has some power, and if he defiles the princess and refuses to admit it, it will greatly affect his reputation among the princes. Moreover, the two major forces of the demon clan, that is, his two uncles, also prepared a fortress to marry his daughter, and Cheng Lie decided not to want any of them, so as to help maintain the balance between the forces.

For this reason, Cheng Lie thought of a strategy to push out the floating incense as a shield. A side concubine position, she wants it, then give it to her, but her concubine must choose the woman she loves the most. What Cheng Lie yearns for is the loyal love of his father and mother.

Cheng Lie also took advantage of this marriage to have a good emotional communication with the princes of the foreign domains who came to Daoxi, after all, it was a wish of his father to fight with the Heavenly Clan, and he wanted to help his father achieve this wish.

At the banquet, Cheng Lie and the princes and kings of the foreign domains drank happily and heartily, and they were very happy.

The kings were very touched by the fact that the eldest prince left his bride behind, and drank with them, and also felt that the eldest prince could marry the daughter of a foreign domain, and felt that they saw the hope of being able to climb up, and the reward for the importance of the eldest prince was that they swore allegiance to Cheng Lie.

This wedding not only earned Cheng Lie a lot of good reputation, but also allowed him to win the support of more middle clans outside of the two major forces.

Cheng Lie was drunk, but he was still clear in his heart, because his alcohol consumption had always been very good. The last time he said that he had defiled Fuxiang, he clearly remembered that he didn't drink much, but why did he get so drunk that he was unconscious? Cheng Lie once suspected that he had been drugged or manipulated? And the biggest suspicion was Fuxiang's father and daughter, but what if they didn't check it? It didn't do any good if they got stiff? They just wanted to cling to his power and status and take advantage of him, and he had seen a lot of this kind of thing.

With some indignation and disdain, Cheng Lie was only helped to the sleeping hall of Fuxiang after the banquet was completely over, Cheng Lie really didn't have much emotion, and he pretended to be drunk when dealing with a woman who might have calculated himself.

"Hee-hee, bride", Cheng Lie grinned as he pointed to the veiled floating incense, and then, as if unintentionally pulling the veil, he was drunk and lying on the couch.

Everyone was stunned by the eldest prince's sudden tearing off of his scarf, but when they saw that his face was drunk and drowsy, an old palace maid hurriedly stepped forward and reminded, "The eldest prince, please do the same prison ceremony."

Cheng Lie didn't want to do this with this woman, he wanted to keep all this to his beloved woman, so he pretended to have a big tongue and shouted impatiently: "Go, go, Prince Ben, want to ...... sleep".

"Let's all go down"

Seeing that Cheng Lie was drunk like this, Fuxiang knew that the ceremony of joining the prison would not work, and tearing off the scarf meant that the ceremony had been completed, and there was no need to worry too much about whether he could join the prison or not. If Cheng Lie sleeps, then on his wedding night, I am afraid that there will be no hole room to round, so Fuxiang can't wait to send everyone away.

"The slave maid will give the mother a wide dress", Yin Li did not leave, she saw the master's thoughts, and wanted to help the master change clothes and go to bed.

Fuxiang didn't want to wait any longer, and also sent Yin Li, "You can go down too."

"Yes!

Seeing that everyone had withdrawn, Fuxiang leaned over and looked at Cheng Lieyinglang's drunken red face with affection, and her heart rippled with thousands of ripples, she loved this man too much!

Fuxiang has had many relationships in the Wuling Clan, and she is already married, so she doesn't have to pretend to be anything, she doesn't want her Spring Festival flowers and candles to be in vain.

Cheng Lie could feel the hot gaze of the floating incense, he opened his drunken red eyes, and all that came into his eyes were dazzling and excited red, and under the impetus of alcohol, he didn't feel restless

The red candle is burning, and in the red curtain, Cheng Lie releases his thirst, and the floating fragrance is like a drunken mania......
