Chapter 843: Consummation
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Not long after Song Jingchen left, MO Yuan brought in a food box.
“Already?”
She was too excited in the morning and did not eat. Now that she saw a table full of delicacies, Shen Yijia immediately started eating.
MO Yuan helped her scoop a bowl of fish soup. “Master has already instructed me to prepare it.”
However, Song Jingchen hadn’t left the room yet, so it was not appropriate for her to knock on the door.
Shen Yijia took a sip of the soup. The soup was milky and mellow. The fish was fresh and tender, and it melted in her mouth. She smiled. “Mother is so good.”
After she filled her stomach, MO Yuan put the leftovers back into the food box and took out a booklet. “Master asked me to give this to Miss.”
Shen Yijia took it. There was only a portrait of a beauty drawn on the booklet. She asked curiously, ‘What is this?”
MO Yuan shook her head. “I don’t know, but Master specially instructed Miss to read it carefully.”
Afraid that Shen Yijia would not take it to heart, MO Yuan prepared to wait for Shen Yijia to finish reading before leaving.
“So serious?” she thought.
Shen Yijia opened the booklet.
“Wow!” she exclaimed.
MO Yuan looked over curiously and instantly blushed. “This… Miss, take your
time. I’ll leave first.”
She picked up the food box and left, as if something was chasing after her.
Shen Yijia stared at the man and woman in the booklet and did not look up. The pictures in the booklet were too… Compared to the books she had read in the past, this was much more intense.
After flipping through two pages, Shen Yijia suddenly understood. So this was the consummation. Then hadn’t she been deceived by her beautiful husband previously?
It was impossible for her beautiful husband to lie to her. Perhaps he didn’t know either?
‘Yes, that must be it.” Shen Yijia nodded firmly. This was everyone’s first time, so it was normal for her beautiful husband not to understand.
Thinking of this, Shen Yijia’s face became serious. She had to learn well. She could only teach her beautiful husband after she learned it.
However, this posture was a little too tricky.
Song Jingchen didn’t know that someone wanted to be his teacher after he left for a while.
It was not an exaggeration for Thirty Thousand to say that all the ministers of the imperial court were here. In order to show how important Shen Yijia was to him, Xuanyuan Qi brought everyone here before the court session ended.
With the imperial chefs and palace servants in the palace, the venue was set up quickly. In short, everyone was already drinking when Song Jingchen arrived.
Song Jingchen held his forehead. For some reason, he felt like someone was holding a banquet at his house on his wedding day.
It was fine if they were forced to receive guests, but they all drank with him warmly.
After a long time, Xuanyuan Ce stopped him again.
“Rascal…” He was a little drunk and still didn’t like Song Jingchen in any way. “Listen carefully, I only have one daughter, Jiajia. If you dare to betray her in the future, I’ll be the first to come after you.”
“That girl is silly. Her heart is filled with you, and she’s treating you well… This is very similar to Ah Luo.” Xuanyuan Ce picked up his wine gla.s.s and drank it in one gulp. He muttered, “Don’t lose her like me…”
The atmosphere was a little awkward because of his last sentence.
Xuanyuan Ziming quickly said, “Uncle is right. Sister Jiajia is a member of our
Xuanyuan family. Brother-in-law, you can’t bully her.”
“Brother-in-law.” The Eldest Prince and Second Prince also raised their wine gla.s.ses. Their meaning was obvious.
Xuanyuan Qi was afraid that his two sons would become bargaining chips in the hands of the aristocratic families one day, so he was still worried about them.
Fortunately, the two of them were not people who were obsessed with power. The three brothers had always had a good relationship.
At least so far, there had never been a case of brothers backstabbing each other.
Song Jingchen was forced to drink a few more gla.s.ses of wine. In the end, Xuanyuan Qi said that it was getting late, so they let him go.
Since the emperor had left, the others naturally felt embarra.s.sed to stay any longer and bade farewell.
After sending everyone off, it was already sunset.
Thirty Thousand brought him a bowl of hangover soup at the right time.
“This was specially instructed by Madam Ji,” he said.
It had to be said that Ji Luo had been worried sick about the couple consummating their marriage. After worrying that Shen Yijia didn’t understand the etiquette of a married couple, he was also worried that Song Jingchen would cause trouble after drinking too much.
If not for the fact that she knew that Xuanyuan Qi was trying to show his support for Shen Yijia today, she would have drugged all the guests and thrown them out.
Song Jingchen finished the hangover soup and took a shower in the front courtyard before returning to his new room.
At that moment, Shen Yijia had already taken off her phoenix crown and changed into a thin red shirt. Her black hair was casually tied up with a wooden hairpin.
Song Jingchen had given her this wooden hairpin when he learned how to carve. It was also her favorite hairpin.
Seeing him enter, Shen Yijia’s eyes lit up. She seemed to have thought of something and lowered her head shyly.
Her posture made her look like a shy newlywed.
Song Jingchen’s Adam’s apple bobbed twice. Afraid of scaring Shen Yijia, he took a deep breath and tried not to appear too anxious.
He walked up to Shen Yijia and asked in a hoa.r.s.e voice, “Have you eaten?”
Seeing him like this, Shen Yijia was no longer shy. She looked up at him openly.
He blushed a little, perhaps because he had drunk alcohol or because he was in a good mood.
He was already handsome, so she wanted to pounce on him even more.
Shen Yijia swallowed. She did not want to eat the dragon liver or phoenix gallbladder even if it was placed in front of her.
Song Jingchen was waiting for her to answer when a red phantom pounced at him.
He was shocked and quickly reached out to hold her. When he lowered his head, he met a pair of sparkling eyes.
“I don’t want to eat anything else, I just want to eat…” Shen Yijia whispered in his ear.
Song Jingchen felt something explode in his head.
He was afraid of scaring this girl.
Shen Yijia wanted to mention that he had consummated his marriage wrongly in the past, but her lips were soon covered by Song Jingchen.
The fragrance of wine lingered. Shen Yijia felt that she was very drunk, and her mind had turned into mush. She had learned everything in the day for nothing.
After a long time, their lips parted. Shen Yijia opened her eyes in a daze and chuckled.
Song Jingchen led her to the table and handed her a gla.s.s of wine. “We forgot to finish the wine.”
Shen Yijia looked at him in a daze and drank the wine with him.
The wine cup was taken away, and dense kisses landed again. They lingered on her lips for a moment before moving to her neck.
The belt around her neck loosened, and fiery red mandarin duck brocade slipped between the two of them.
Song Jingchen picked her up and walked straight to the wedding bed.
Thousands of strands of black hair scattered down. Under her was a soft red wedding blanket. The red curtain slowly lowered, and her clothes fell to the ground in a mess.
“Don’t be afraid,” he said.
Shen Yijia barely regained some rationality. She clenched her fists nervously and placed them on her chest, but she still replied in a low voice, “I’m not afraid.”
These three words completely broke the last string in Song Jingchen’s heart.
The dragon and phoenix candles on the table shone brightly. The flames of the candles danced and reflected on the closed curtain. Two intersecting silhouettes could be seen, overlapping and intertwining. They were inseparable.
The night was long..
