At the hour of the Ox, the melodies of sheng and song dispersed, and Muyang's moon slowly rose as Yue woke up.
She took a fragrance pellet from the eight treasures box made of purple sandwood with mother-of-pearl inlay and dragon phoenix motif, and placed it into the bronze-glazed rose-shaped incense censer with nail-like embellishments. The fragrance wafted up, sweet and rich.
This is the fragrance of geese pear silk bed, used to regulate the emotions between husband and wife.
In the previous life, Muyang Yue clearly felt that her feelings with Dong Fang Shi Xian had faded. The concubine Jiao of the Marquis Wen Xin had been urging her to bear a son, so she gathered this fragrance.
Of course, the Gu Li bed fragrance alone was not enough to stir the mortal desires in Gu Xingchen of this life.
In the previous life, when she first met Gu Xingchen at Bai Que Guan, he was known as someone who would not save a life.
So, Muyang Yue dropped a bit of He Huan San.
The painted screen led Gu Xingchen to the bedroom, then quietly withdrew, not asking a single question more.
“Your Imperial Princess, we don't seem to know each other,” Gu Xingchen was not treating her as a stranger, walking straight to the side of the purple sandwood inlayed mother-of-pearl hibiscus pattern beauty bed, lazily lying down and playing with the jade pendant she had just given away - a mao nao lotus leaf frog.
“Gu Lang, we will get to know each other soon.” Muyang Yue's voice is always gentle, soft cotton, with a touch of sweet and flavorful, making people think she is easy to bully.
As soon as her voice faded, Muyang Yue stripped off her clothes in front of Gu Xingchen.
Gu Xingchen smiled, his lips curving up, and at first, he had just given a casual glance, but then he couldn't help being taken aback by the surprise.
This slender and delicate shoulder, like jade cut to resemble a full moon, this golden chain-linked fragrance butterfly bone, this tender snow-white waistline, this trembling waist, and this smiling spring onion tip all looked like works of art, but were all natural.
“Your Imperial Princess, have you thought it over? Gu's move will be thorough,” Gu Xingchen's eyes were neither smiling nor frowning, and his eyes were calm.
Ahem, that Dong Fang Shi Xian is truly a fool. On the night of their wedding, he left his beautifully shaped wife, Ruo Jia Empress, uncared for. First, he was manipulated by Lady Jiao of the Marquis Wen Xin to visit and comfort her at the questions about plum blossoms garden. Then, he was pursued by He Lan Qin'er, the daughter of the Imperial Inspector, at the standing in snow garden, and they became like a pair of wild mandarin ducks.
After saying that, Muyang Yue grasped the chin of Gu Xingchen and their lips and tongues intertwined again, like a pair of wild mandarin ducks.
However, Muyang Yue did not know that Gu Xingchen's full excitement was the strong-armed Dragon and Phoenix candles burning all night long, which made her cheeks sweat and eyes droopy with fatigue.
Then let's sleep, until we wake up naturally. Muyang Yue comfortably leaned against Gu Xingchen's arms.
"Aiya, my cousin, you really have a good son. Without your own childhood love at the Imperial Princess's wedding, and now finding a wild man to tarnish her purity!" The Marquess of Pingjin's wife Pan, under the pretense of the painted screen blocking her way, barged into the bedroom and immediately clapped her hands in glee, laughing so hard that the silver flowerpin with twisted branches and phoenixes on her hairstyle swayed back and forth uncontrollably.
The Marquess of Pingjin's wife, Madam Pan, and the Marquess of Wenxin's wife, Madam Jiao, are a pair of cousin-sisters.
They loved to act out heartfelt scenes of sisterly love when they were young, but in reality, they secretly competed with each other, neither one willing to back down.
At first, the Marquess of Wenxin had his eye on Madam Pan, whose family background was not as illustrious as that of Lady Jiao's. However, she was exceptionally beautiful. The problem was that the family matriarch did not agree and could not directly defy the Marquess of Wenxin's preference. So she secretly asked a matchmaker to find a suitable husband for Madam Pan, which happened to be the Marquess of Pingjin.
The matchmaker praised the Marquess of Pingjin to the heavens, and Madam Pan thought, since it's also a marquisate, there's no need to compete with Lady Jiao.
However, after marrying into the Marquess of Pingjin's household, Madam Pan discovered that he was a notorious playboy. After having a daughter with her, he contracted gonorrhea and died. As a result, Madam Pan became a widow with a bad reputation. Her daughter was also ungrateful, and she married a poor boy. When the poor boy became wealthy, she became a discarded woman.
Therefore, Madam Pan was particularly envious and jealous of Lady Jiao.
In the previous life, Madam Pan was a cunning woman. She seized on the fact that Lady Jiao had caused Muyang Yue to spend her wedding night alone and made a big deal of it everywhere, avenging Muyang Yue's injustice.
