Chapter 307

Xue Liu's face suddenly darkened. Not to mention how immoral it was for the two of them to do such a thing in the yard without paying attention to others, Lin Xuefu was only thirteen years old now!

"What are you doing!"

Xue Liu's slightly angry voice sounded, and the two people who were hugging and kissing on the side quickly let go and looked towards Xue Liu. When they saw the person coming, their faces turned pale at the same time.

Xue Liu walked towards the main room, and the words she left behind were heard by the wind, "Come in!"

Seeing Lin Xuefu's uneasy look, Mu Ziqian quietly squeezed her hand and whispered, "Don't worry, Fu'er, your cousin will take care of anything."

Lin Xuefu responded timidly and followed Mu Ziqian forward.

Inside the house, Xue Liu sat at the top with a slightly cold face, while Mu Ziqian and Lin Xuefu stood at the bottom with nervous faces.

In order to protect his beloved girl, Mu Ziqian took a step forward and protected Lin Xuefu behind him, taking the initiative, "Sister, Fuer and I are in love."

Xue Liu opened her lips slightly, "You are only fourteen years old, do you know what is in love?"

Hearing Xue Liu's words, Mu Ziqian frowned, "It's not just, I'm already fourteen years old, I know what love is, I like Fuer, and I will marry her in the future."

Mu Ziqian looked unmoved, Xue Liu was too lazy to pay attention to him, and turned her eyes to Lin Xuefu, "What about you? Although you are only thirteen years old, you also know how important a girl's reputation is, right?"

Lin Xuefu pursed her lips and said nothing. After hesitating for a moment, she took two steps forward and knelt in front of Xue Liu, "Cousin, Fuer knows her mistake."

Compared to Mu Ziqian, Lin Xuefu's attitude was obviously much better. However, kneeling down to admit mistakes does not mean that you are at a disadvantage. This can be seen from Mu Ziqian's eyes full of heartache.

After all, it was the New Year, and Xue Liu didn't want to make things too awkward, so she motioned Lin Xuefu to stand up, and then asked seriously: "Do you really like Ziqian?"

Lin Xuefu's little face was stained with a blush, and her voice was as low as a mosquito's whisper, "Yes, cousin is good to Fuer, and Fuer has liked cousin for a long time."

Hearing Lin Xuefu's answer, Mu Ziqian's face was visibly happy, and Xue Liu sighed softly: "You grew up together since childhood, and some feelings are inevitable. I can also not interfere, but the premise is that you can't do anything excessive before you get married, understand?"

Seeing Xue Liu's relenting, both of them showed a touch of joy on their faces, and promised repeatedly, "Sister (cousin), don't worry, we will definitely remember it."

Walking out of Fuyun Pavilion, Xue Liu's face was still calm. Obviously, she didn't believe the promises of Mu Ziqian and Lin Xuefu at all.

"Bihen, place some people in Fuyun Pavilion and Hongyan Hall to keep an eye on the two."

Bihen agreed, but Xueliu's lips never relaxed.

Grandfather was right. Everyone in Yangling Marquis's Mansion was confused. Fortunately, Mu Linyuan and Lin listened to her advice, but Mu Ziqian and Lin Xuefu were obviously more opinionated, so Xueliu had to be on guard.

…

In the 16th year of Jiahe, on March 12, Crown Prince Chu Lingxiu married Mu Xueliu, the legitimate daughter of Yangling Marquis's Mansion, as his concubine. Chu Lingxiu personally went to the door to greet her and took her back to the Crown Prince's Mansion in an eight-carriage sedan chair. The news spread throughout Shengjing.

Although it was a little beyond the etiquette, the emperor and empress knew that this marriage itself was an injustice to Xueliu, so they didn't care.

The descendants of heroes should be treated well.

In front of the Prince's Mansion, Xue Liu stepped down from the bridal sedan, wearing a bright red wedding dress, but she didn't have a veil on her head, because that was the treatment only the wife could have.

Looking at Xue Liu's beautiful yet majestic face, Chu Lingxiu was full of pity, holding her hand and walking into the mansion together.

There was no wife in the Prince's Mansion, so Xue Liu didn't need to pay homage to anyone else, and was led by Chu Lingxiu to the wedding room.

The courtyard was newly purchased by Chu Lingxiu for Xue Liu. Like the Yangling Marquis Mansion, it was called Bilin Courtyard, and the layout of the courtyard was 80% similar, which showed the degree of care.

Because the mansion also hosted a banquet for guests, Chu Lingxiu left first to entertain the guests after sending Xue Liu to the room.

After closing the door, Bihen came over with a look of satisfaction, "Miss, His Highness really cares about you."

Xue Liu looked around the room and said indifferently, "It's just a debt. Men are all like this."

On the other side, in Yangling Marquis' Mansion.

After waiting for a long time, Xue Liu finally got married. Mu Ziqian and Lin Xuefu, who had endured for several months, could finally get close to each other.

When they learned that Mu Linyuan and Lin were busy in Qi Futang, their actions became even bolder.

Letting his confidant guard outside the door, Mu Ziqian hugged Lin Xuefu and expressed his love for her. However, while kissing, Mu Ziqian found that he had an inappropriate reaction. Just when he wanted to push Lin Xuefu away, the latter tentatively put her hand into Mu Ziqian's collar.

The string that was forcibly stretched in his heart broke on the spot, and Mu Ziqian couldn't help but press Lin Xuefu to the bed.

Lin Xuefu panicked and was about to say that they were still young, but Mu Ziqian blocked her words in her throat.

Feeling Mu Ziqian's fingers constantly peeling off her clothes, Lin Xuefu's eyes immediately turned red with fear. Her timid eyes were filled with tears, which made Mu Ziqian more and more crazy. It was not until she felt pain under her body that Lin Xuefu could not help but cry out in pain.

Mu Ziqian finally came back to his senses, looked at Lin Xuefu's red eyes, and kissed her eyes gently, "Fuer, don't be afraid, you are my first woman, I will definitely treat you well."

...

The sun set, and Chu Lingxiu came to Xueliu's yard with a smell of alcohol.

Xue Liu stood up and supported Chu Lingxiu's slightly swaying body. Chu Lingxiu took advantage of the situation and held her hand, "Xue'er, I finally married you back."

In his eyes, affection surged.

There was not much ups and downs on Xue Liu's face, "Your Highness has drunk too much, please lie down and rest for a while."

Chu Lingxiu shook his head and refused, then turned to ask Bihen to pour two glasses of wine, one each for Xue Liu, "Xue'er, this is our combined wine, we must drink it."

A smile appeared on Xue Liu's lips, and she drank it all in one gulp.

However, Chu Lingxiu still held Xue Liu's hand and took her to his study.

In the middle of the study room, there is a painting hanging.

The woman in the painting is dressed in a plain white dress, her head is slightly lowered, and the whole picture cannot be seen clearly. Only her eyes are as deep and clear as a pool of water. The painting is vivid and serious.

Xue Liu was startled, "Your Highness..."

Chu Lingxiu lowered his head slightly and placed a kiss on her eyebrows. His voice was gentle and sweet, "Xue'er, I fell for you three years ago. It's a pity that in these three years, you have been following Yangling Marquis eastward. Going west, I won’t even have the chance to see you a second time.”

Xue Liu's heart moved slightly, she never expected that things would turn out like this.

Originally, she had thought that the first thing she would do after marrying into the Prince's Mansion was to spend some effort to capture Chu Lingxiu's heart, but now it seemed that it was no longer necessary.

A hint of emotion appeared in her eyes. Xue Liu raised her eyes and looked into Chu Lingxiu's languid eyes. There seemed to be affection in her eyes, "Your Highness..."

Chu Lingxiu pulled her into his arms, his voice full of satisfaction, "Only a woman like you is what I want in this life."

That night, Chu Lingxiu stayed at Bilin Courtyard.

Bihen retreated early.

Chu Lingxiu gently caressed Xue Liu's eyebrows and helped her remove all the hairpins on her head. Her long hair fell like a waterfall, adding a bit of woman's unique softness to Xue Liu's original heroic spirit.

Looking at Xue Liu's clear eyes, Chu Lingxiu promised: "Xue'er, I promise you that in this life, I will treat you as before."

Xue Liu gave a soft "hmm" and then slowly followed Chu Lingxiu's movements and lay down.

The bed curtain fell, covering the beautiful room, but it could not cover the woman's soft moans.

The next day, when Xue Liu woke up, Chu Lingxiu was no longer beside her.

Bihen pushed the door open and entered, waiting for Xueliu to get up, with a smile on her face, "Master, His Highness got up early in the morning, and specifically asked the slaves not to wake you up."

When the prince sleeps with him, all the concubines have to get up and serve him together, but when they come to Xue Liu, it becomes an exception.

However, Xue Liu was not happy at all. Now that she had just gotten married, it was hard to say what would happen in the future.

After breakfast, Xue Liu put on a light blue palace dress and brought Bi Hen into the palace to pay her respects to the queen.

This time, Xue Liu entered the palace as the crown prince's concubine, so Bi Hen also followed her in.

On the way, Xue Liu and Bi Hen explained many things in detail, and Bi Hen responded to them one by one.

Outside Kunyi Palace, Xue Liu asked the maid at the door to go in and report, while she stood upright at the palace door and waited.

As Xue Liu expected, she waited for a full quarter of an hour before a palace maid came out again to call her in.

There is no doubt that the Queen gave her a blow when they first met.

The expression on Xue Liu's face did not change at all, and she followed the palace maid who led the way through the palace gates, and finally arrived at the main hall of Kunyi Palace.

The queen is sitting on the phoenix throne at the top, looking noble and dazzling in a bright red phoenix robe.

The queen is the most noble woman in the world, and Xue Liu's goal is the same.

Walking to the center of the hall, Xue Liu knelt down and saluted, "I am a member of the Mu family. I have met the Queen. May the Queen be blessed with peace and prosperity."

The queen raised her eyes, and there was no emotion on her delicate face. She just said casually, "Get up."

Xue Liu thanked her and stood up. Every step she took was very standard, making it impossible to find any mistakes.

Yun Lan, the maid in charge of the queen's side, dismissed the maids in the palace and brought Xue Liu a cup of still warm tea.

Xue Liu took it, walked forward and brought it to the Queen, lowered her eyebrows and said softly: "Please have tea with your Majesty."

The queen raised her eyes and glanced at her. Without any embarrassment, she directly took the tea cup and took a sip. The etiquette was considered complete.

Xue Liu returned to her previous position, and then the queen spoke: "Last year, the prince suddenly told me that he had fallen in love with a girl, and he was very interested in it. He also begged me to grant her permission, and he also begged your majesty to grant a marriage. Yes, when I met him today, I realized that the prince really has good taste."

This was a compliment on the surface, but in reality it was a temptation. As a future emperor, the most taboo thing is to be emotional, and the prince's intentions towards Xue Liu have obviously aroused the queen's dissatisfaction.

Xue Liu immediately knelt down and said, neither humble nor arrogantly: "Your Majesty, Your Highness is very complimentary and has granted Xue Liu the position of concubine. Xue Liu is extremely grateful. In the future, she will serve the Crown Prince wholeheartedly to make her feel at ease."

She only mentioned service, but said nothing about the heirs. The queen was very satisfied with Xue Liu's knowledge.

However, it is still inevitable to continue hammering, "Concubine Mu should also know that I have arranged the marriage for the prince as early as five years ago, but now that Li'er is still young, there are still two years before she will be born. Mu Concubine Since the concubine is a smart person, there are certain things that Concubine Mu should be able to understand even if I don’t tell you.”
