The Prince Consort's Beloved

Li Yuanrou looked down on her: "Eldest sister, you are really my sister! I heard that you cheated him out of a lot of money on the eve of my wedding. Is that true?"

The princess interrupted her anxiously, "Hey? Don't wrongly accuse a good person. He took the initiative to give it to me that time. He pestered me to marry you. Even when you were like that, he kept throwing money at my princess mansion and asked me to ask for an imperial decree to grant the marriage. Who could resist his huge amount of money? I have servants all over my mansion, more than ten male lovers, and they all need to eat. Do you understand what I mean? I spent several days to persuade Yuanqi to give me the imperial decree, but Yuanqi cheated him and asked him for several million taels of silver before he gave up."

Li Yuanrou was extremely contemptuous of the two people's behavior: "You! You are so shameless! Are you trying to squeeze Xiao Luobai dry?"

The princess said, "How can you not be so shameless? Where will the military pay come from? Where will the disaster relief funds come from? Besides, didn't Yuan Qi give him another official title? As a court official of Dai Viet, isn't it his duty to share the worries of the king and seek the welfare of the people?"

Li Yuanrou asked suspiciously, "Oh? In addition to the empty title of Prince Consort, were there any other official titles?"

The princess waved her hand and said, "It doesn't matter. He's already a consort. Do you think he has any real power? Rather than giving him an official title, it's better to give him an honorary title so that he can be easily asked for money in the future."

Li Yuanrou's face immediately turned pale with rage: "How shameless! To put it bluntly, you two have teamed up to sell me out. One of you borrows money whenever you have nothing to do, and the other one demands money and food at every turn. I, the victim, didn't even get a penny!"

Li Yuanrou thought to herself, that was all my family's money. You are obviously the top brother on my list, but you two divided all the money. You two black-hearted guys.

The eldest princess was surprised and asked, "You still need money? You two are sleeping in the same bed, and you can get whatever you want just by whispering in someone's ear!"

Li Yuanrou was horrified: "How did you know? Did you send someone to monitor me under the bed?"

The princess sneered in disdain: "Why do you need to monitor him? He has already moved back to your residence. You two are so inseparable now. It would be strange if you didn't sleep in the same bed."

The eldest princess became interested, smiled mischievously, and reached out to poke Li Yuanrou: "You two should work harder and bring me a little girl to play with next year. Girls are better, they are fragrant and soft."

Li Yuanrou was embarrassed and lowered her voice and said hastily: "What nonsense are you talking about? We haven't consummated the marriage yet."

The eldest princess' voice suddenly rose a few notes: "Haven't you consummated the marriage yet?"

Li Yuanrou pretended to cover her mouth, then lowered her voice and said anxiously: "Why are you shouting so loudly!"

The princess waved her hand away and said, "What are you afraid of? There's no one here, no one can hear you. How can you be so useless? You're so arrogant and reckless all the time, but in the end you're just a paper tiger. Don't leave later. I'll get you two books and you can go back and study them carefully."

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and more than ten male favorites came in holding wine jars, wine glasses and other utensils.

Li Yuanrou stood up and asked nervously: "When did you arrive? Didn't you hear anything just now?"

Cheng Feng said seriously: "Yes, I didn't hear anything."

Luo Xing, who was standing next to him, twisted her waist and leaned against the door frame in an S shape. She spoke in a gentle voice, "Yes, I didn't hear it. I didn't hear that you and your husband didn't consummate your marriage."

Li Yuanrou's face flushed immediately. Although she was the second princess of noble status, she was only a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl who was just beginning to fall in love. How could she compare to the thick-skinned old foxes who had been in the world for many years?

The concubine named Qingzhou came forward eagerly, and his servile appearance was no less than that of Li Yuanrou. He smiled at the princess and said, "Princess, can you lend me your booklet first?"

The princess covered her lips with a handkerchief and giggled, "Stop talking nonsense. Aren't you here to celebrate my birthday? Why don't you fill up the glass quickly?"

Everyone sat down, shared the wine, and raised their glasses to toast.

Li Yuanrou was still trapped in the embarrassment just now, and just kept drinking, wishing he could get drunk and pass out immediately.

Several male lovers came over to toast her one after another, and she raised her head and drank them all.

Li Yuanrou's cheeks were flushed and her eyes were blurry with drunkenness. The princess advised her not to drink anymore, but she refused to listen and said that she wanted to get drunk to forget her sorrow.

When the princess saw that she was drunk, she ordered someone to find Xiao Luobai.

When Xiao Luobai hurried over, Li Yuanrou was still holding the wine glass and bringing it to her mouth. Her face was flushed and her eyes were clear. She was already quite drunk.

All the concubines stood up and saluted to Xiao Luobai.

Li Yuanrou's tongue was a little knotted, and she asked in confusion, "Is it such a big deal? How come you respect him more than you respect me?"

Qing Zhou, who was sitting next to him, said, "Your Highness is the breadwinner for all of us, so we should respect you. Would you like to sit down and have a drink with us?"

Xiao Luobai declined and went forward to support Li Yuanrou.

Li Yuanrou waved him away: "Don't move, I haven't finished drinking yet." Then he raised his glass: "I want to write a poem, asking you how much sorrow you can have, just like a group of eunuchs going to a brothel."

All the concubines in the room burst into laughter, and the eldest princess's face was slightly distorted.

Li Yuanrou frowned and asked, "What are you laughing at? Are you all laughing at me for not consummating my marriage?"

Seeing this, Xiao Luobai's head began to pound. He quickly snatched Li Yuanrou's wine glass and walked out while hugging her.

Luo Xing's shrill voice came: "Princess, please go and consummate your marriage with your prince consort. I won't eavesdrop." After saying this, she laughed unbridled.

Li Yuanrou was carried away by Xiao Luobai, saying, "How dare they laugh at me? I want to consummate my marriage, now! Consummate my marriage!"

Xiao Luobai agreed with her and said okay, okay. He didn't expect Li Yuanrou to be such a bad drinker. Now he just wanted to push her to the bed to rest.

Li Yuanrou started to act like a spoiled child, and said in a crying voice, "You don't want to, do you?"

Li Yuanrou staggered, and Xiao Luobai continued to support him as he walked towards the guest room, saying, "Yes, yes!"

Li Yuanrou hung one hand weakly on him, and with the other hand she reached into Xiao Luo's white collar and fumbled around, mumbling, "Consummate the marriage, consummate the marriage, now, consummate the marriage."

Sweat beads appeared on Xiao Luobai's forehead and his breathing was heavy. He took her hand away: "Don't move." Then he picked her up by the waist and strode towards the guest room.

He kicked the door open, walked into the room, hooked his toes and closed the door again. The hot air from the floor heater hit his face, making Xiao Luobai's cheeks turn redder.

He put Li Yuanrou on the couch. He felt as if his whole body was burning and his mouth was dry. He wanted to go to the table to get a cup of tea to moisten his throat. Li Yuanrou hung her head weakly and hooked her hands on his belt. If Xiao Luobai moved, either the belt would come loose or Li Yuanrou would be pulled to the ground by the belt.

After weighing the pros and cons, he took a deep breath and sat back.

Li Yuanrou climbed up his neck and kissed his lips with a dazed look in her eyes. He was shocked all over.

Xiao Luobai hooked one hand around her neck and the other around her waist, pushed the little tongue in his mouth back, and began to turn defense into offense, conquering the city and seizing the territory.

He let go of her lips and asked her with red eyes: "Rou'er, who am I!"

Li Yuanrou: "Big brother on the list!"

Xiao Luobai: "I don't understand. Say it again."

Li Yuanrou hummed and said coquettishly: "Wangcai, you are Wangcai."

A basin of cold water was immediately poured over Xiao Luobai's head. He gritted his teeth and said, "Forget it. I'll settle the score with you another day."

Li Yuanrou refused to give in and continued to pout, "Wangcai, I want Wangcai. Wangcai has brought you a lot of wealth. I want Wangcai too, lots of Wangcai."

As she spoke, Li Yuanrou began to cry: "I am so poor. Do you know that I am a poor princess and I can't even pay the servants' monthly wages? Why am I so unlucky? I am so poor, so poor..."

Xiao Luobai hugged her, tears and snot stuck to his chest, the girl in his arms was still complaining: "I don't even dare to go out, wuwuwu, you gave so much money to those two black-hearted people, but you just don't care about me, you old man, you don't care about me, wuwuwu, I want to go out and play, I want to buy things... wuwuwu..."

Xiao Luobai finally figured out that this "Old Six" was definitely not a good word, but he still patted the tearful girl in his arms and coaxed her: "Okay, I'm Old Six, don't cry, okay? I'll take care of you, I'll give you money and take you out to play when I get back, Rou'er, don't cry, okay..."
