The road of the favorite concubine in three lives is destined

Chapter 228 Zhang Duo did not touch the princess in the bridal chamber

Zhang Duo was drunk and just wanted to bury the pain in his heart. Although today was the day he and the princess were getting married, his mind was full of Yiwan's figure and the good memories of being with Yiwan.

Zhang Duo, this should have been the most glorious moment in his life. Everyone knew that Zhang Duo was the only princess who married the emperor.

He knew that marriage with the princess was a great opportunity for him, a chance to change his fate. He would become a royal relative and enjoy endless wealth and splendor. However, all these seemed so pale and powerless in his eyes, because all he thought about was that gentle figure - Yiwan.

But he fell into deep memories and pain. The anesthesia of alcohol seemed unable to cover up his deep emotions, but made his thoughts more confused, and he could not get rid of the good times he spent with Yiwan.

He recalled the time he had spent with Yiwan, those simple and innocent days. They had walked together on paths filled with the fragrance of flowers, and had shared each other's joys and sorrows. Those memories were like a double-edged sword, making him feel happy and satisfied, but also painful and helpless.

Zhang Duo came to the wedding room, and his heartbeat was particularly clear in the silent night. He was in a complicated mood and had a lot of thoughts. This was the place where he and the princess would spend their lives together, but his heart seemed to be bound by invisible shackles and could not really devote himself to the joy of the new marriage. He looked around and saw that the wedding room was beautifully and elegantly decorated, with red curtains and golden utensils, showing the royal nobility and magnificence everywhere. However, these gorgeous decorations seemed so empty in Zhang Duo's eyes. His heart had long been filled with past memories, and the time he spent with Yi Wan kept emerging in his mind. He sat on the edge of the bed, feeling the softness and comfort of the wedding bed, but his heart was as heavy as a stone. He knew that he should cherish this marriage and work hard for the princess's happiness, but the emotions in his heart were difficult to control. Suddenly, the door was gently pushed open, and the princess walked in slowly. She was wearing a gorgeous wedding dress, with a shy and happy face. Zhang Duo raised his head and saw that the princess' eyes were full of expectation and trust, and his guilt in his heart became stronger. The princess walked to the bed and whispered, "Zhang Duo, we are finally together." Her voice was gentle and touching, which made Zhang Duo feel distressed. He knew that the princess really liked him and was looking forward to spending her life with him. However, Zhang Duo could not respond to the princess's expectations. He knew what he should do, that he should cherish this marriage and work hard for the princess's happiness. However, the emotions in his heart were like an invisible barrier that he could not cross.

Under the soft light of the bridal chamber, Zhang Duo stood in front of the princess, with a hint of embarrassment and helplessness on his face. He took a deep breath and said to the princess, "Princess, I'm drunk." The princess looked at him, with a flash of surprise and confusion in her eyes. She probably didn't expect that Zhang Duo would respond to her expectations in this way on the wedding night. However, she did not blame or accuse him, but just waited quietly for Zhang Duo's explanation. Zhang Duo continued, "Princess, I know today is our big day, and I should accompany you well, but...but I feel a little confused, and I need some time to sort out my thoughts."

When the princess heard Zhang Duo say that he was drunk, the joy and expectation in her heart seemed to be poured with a bucket of cold water. Although she maintained a smile on the surface, she felt a sense of loss and sadness in her heart. The princess had been looking forward to spending this special night with Zhang Duo. She thought they would have a romantic wedding night, but Zhang Duo's response caught her off guard. She couldn't help but start to doubt whether Zhang Duo really liked her and whether he was really willing to spend his life with her.

The princess stood in front of the window of the wedding room. The palace under the night sky looked quiet and mysterious. Her heart was filled with confusion about the future and doubts about her choice. She didn't know whether her choice was right or not, and whether her marriage with Zhang Duo would bring happiness.

After hearing Zhang Duo's words, the princess felt mixed emotions, including loss, sadness, and confusion. The romance and warmth she had expected were instantly broken, replaced by fear of the unknown and uneasiness about the future. However, as a princess, she knew that she could not easily reveal her inner feelings and could not let her emotions affect the overall situation.

So, the princess just said lightly: "Then let's go to bed." Her voice was calm and cold, as if nothing had happened. But under this calm surface, she was hiding her deep disappointment and helplessness. She hoped to use this method to hide her emotions, and also hoped to give Zhang more space to deal with his own problems.

The princess walked to the bed and lay down gracefully. She closed her eyes and tried to use sleep to escape the pain in her heart. However, she knew that escape was not the solution to the problem. She would think in her dreams and face the reality after waking up. She hoped that Zhang Duo could understand her feelings and treat this marriage sincerely instead of avoiding and retreating blindly.

On this night, the princess and Zhang Duo were both immersed in their own thoughts.
