Chapter 511: Second Wedding Night

As for the new Princess Yuan Yun.

The Yuan family has been noble for generations, and they believe in living a life that is rich but not extravagant.

Yuan Yun only brought 108 loads of dowry, which was a constant.

Zhou Chang didn't even take a second look at what was inside and carried it directly into the palace.

Even so, wherever Zhou Chang looked, he could still hear the sound of orders from the viewpoint system.

She naturally ignored it. All the orders were Yuan Yun's, just like Yuan Qi's. She couldn't take any of them.

As for the new house, it naturally has to be rearranged according to the wishes of the bride Yuan Yun.

Zhou Chang walked into the bedroom. In front of him were smiling faces, and behind him were voices of congratulations, even more than the previous time.

The newly decorated bridal chamber must still be bright red, and the "ding, ding, ding..." sound of the viewpoint system placing orders reminds people of the last scene.

The matchmaker came forward and followed the procedures one by one.

Zhou Chang didn't struggle this time.

I lifted the veil when I was asked to do so, but the thought that popped into my head was, why didn’t I lift the veil with Yuan Qi in the first place?

I drank the wedding wine just because I was asked to do so, but the thought that popped into my head was, why didn’t I drink a wedding wine with Yuan Qi in the first place?

After completing all the procedures, the matchmaker and the maids congratulated in unison and then left.

Yuan Yun's pretty face flashed before his eyes under the shade of the red candles.

However, what emerged before Zhou Chang's eyes was Yuan Shiqi's tear-stained face, the crabapple blossoms after the rain, which was still fresh in his memory.

In comparison, even the most beautiful face would pale in comparison.

I don’t know if it’s because of the makeup or if married women can mature overnight.

Compared to a few months ago, the fourteen-year-old Yuan Yun no longer has the sharp childishness on her face, but instead has a little more girlish shyness.

Zhou Chang subconsciously touched the jade pendant in his arms.

On the night Yuan Qi left, Feng Ming sat there all night holding the jade pendant and the letter he left behind.

The next morning, he left in a daze again, holding Jinsinan's brocade box.

Originally, he had no intention of opening the golden nanmu brocade box again.

But the brocade box made of golden nanmu could not be placed anywhere. It could not be thrown away or abandoned, so it was finally placed at the head of the Luohan bed in the study.

This has become a concern that cannot be avoided.

Every time he woke up from a dream at midnight and couldn't sleep, Feng Ming couldn't help but take out the letter and read it over and over again. In the end, he could recite the letter by heart, but he still couldn't fall asleep. He simply held the jade pendant in his arms as a comfort.

Otherwise, my heart would always feel like there was a big hole, and the cold wind would be blowing without stopping.

The jade pendant with intertwined branches is warm to the touch and can also be used to ensure safety and soothe the mind. It is not an exaggeration to regard it as a jade "warm baby" inlaid with gold.

Therefore, Feng Ming, not knowing when, developed the habit of carrying a jade pendant with him, and he never took it off day or night.

"You should go to bed early. I'll sleep in the study tonight." Zhou Chang said, then stood up and was about to leave.

Yuan Yun sat on the bright red brocade mattress, her pretty face immediately changed from shy to angry: "Your Highness, what do you mean? Please explain clearly."

Zhou Chang had already stood up and repeated, "I mean tonight and every night from now on, we sleep separately."

"Why? Your Highness, are you dissatisfied with me?" Yuan Yun was not afraid at all and just glared at Zhou Chang.

"No dissatisfaction." Zhou Chang shook his head, but did not explain too much.

Yuan Yun seemed to have a plan in mind and did not retreat: "Your Highness, is it because of what the Duke Rixu said?"

"No." Zhou Chang was telling the truth. Although she didn't lose her memory, she really didn't care.

"So, Your Highness, are you unwilling to this marriage?" Yuan Yun asked again.

Zhou Chang didn't want to lie, so he kept silent.

Yuan Yun was not to be outdone: "Your Highness, do you think I am willing to do this?"

"Since you don't want to, then let's just be a fake couple." Zhou Chang didn't expect Yuan Yun to be so straightforward. It saved him a lot of effort and trouble.

Yuan Yun's eyes were suddenly filled with grievance: "Your Highness, although it is all grievance, but we are already husband and wife, and I am already your legitimate princess, you can't treat me like this."

This sudden change is really unlike Yuan Yun's character.

It is impossible to change a person's character in just a few months.

Zhou Chang looked at Yuan Yun's aggrieved and tearful face and thought she was just pretending. Deep down, she was still that spoiled and domineering little girl.

But no matter whether it was true or false, she hated it the most. However, she thought of a more reasonable excuse: "You are too young and not yet an adult. I am not interested. Why don't you wait a few more years until you grow up?"

"Your Highness cannot leave." Yuan Yun grabbed Zhou Chang's sleeve.

This action made Zhou Chang feel that Yuan Yun was more like a little girl.

Not to mention that she was not tempted at all, she couldn't even imagine which man could lay his hands on such a grown little girl.

"If I don't leave, what do you want to do?" Zhou Chang glanced at the room subconsciously.

A chaise longue was placed by the window in the newly decorated bridal chamber, but she had no intention of spending the night there.

Yuan Yun's shyness, pride, and dissatisfaction surged up all at once, and she didn't know how to answer: "Anyway, Your Highness can't leave. If you go out tonight, tomorrow morning I... no... I will become the laughing stock of the entire Jindu City."

can you?

Zhou Chang was distracted. Did Yuan Qi have the same concern at the beginning?

If that was the case, then it would have been fine that night, but what about the second day, the third day...?

Zhou Chang just couldn't stop recalling in his mind what Yuan Qi was like during those days? What kind of mood did she spend those days in?

"Your Highness..." Yuan Yun called again, her voice gentle and coquettish.

Zhou Chang felt uncomfortable when being called.

If it were Prince Yi Fengming himself, what would he do now?

Unfortunately, Zhou Chang felt that Feng Ming was probably pretending to be dead and he didn't react at all.

Yuan Yun didn't have much to think about. She didn't know who taught her what, but she just held on to Zhou Chang's sleeve tightly and refused to let her go.

Zhou Chang also sighed inwardly: "I can stay, but I won't consummate the marriage with you. We will sleep separately."

"Why?" Yuan Yun had achieved initial success, so she naturally wanted to press the issue further. "Is it because I'm not pretty enough?"

Zhou Chang didn't want to pay any more attention to her. There was not only a "generation gap" but also a "wall" between them. He gently pushed her arm away and walked towards the chaise longue.

"Isn't my concubine pretty enough?" Yuan Yun wanted to get out of bed, but she remembered the rules of the wedding night and still felt dissatisfied. "No one... No, everyone. Anyone who has seen me will praise me for being pretty."

Zhou Chang was speechless. He lifted his skirt and sat on the chaise longue: "You are beautiful, but go to bed early."
