The Emperor's heart is won, she sits on the Phoenix Throne! The Divine Physician's Eldest

"What's wrong, Your Highness?" Jiang Yu's expression was rather unpleasant.

"Tonight I will sleep in the study," Shen Xuan said coldly before leaving.

He had no genuine feelings for Jiang Yu. His previous gentleness towards her was merely a facade to create a persona, imitating Shen Pei.

Now that he has married Jiang Yu, he no longer wants to put on airs.

If Jiang Yu hadn't done that shameful and unlucky thing today, he could have slept with her.

But now he despises ginger and considers it unlucky.

“Your Highness,” Jiang Yu suppressed her anger, “Tonight is our wedding night. I am, after all, the legitimate daughter of the Prime Minister’s mansion. If the news that Your Highness is spending the night in the study gets out, it will probably damage Your Highness’s image and discourage those who support you.”

"You're threatening me?" Shen Xuan's face turned cold.

“Your Highness, we are now husband and wife. When husband and wife are of one mind, their strength can break metal. I am only thinking of Your Highness.”

Jiang Yu also saw the corner of Shen Xuan's mouth clearly, and she felt guilty towards him before.

Since she couldn't get love, she decided to maximize her own interests.

She wants to have a son, and in the future, she will rise in status because of her son. With the Prime Minister's mansion as her backing and Shen Xuan's influence, she will surely be able to reach the top and trample Song Siyao underfoot.

Emperor Changlong does not yet have an eldest grandson, and she wants to give birth to one before Song Siyao.

Therefore, whether for her own reputation or for the sake of her offspring, she could not let Shen Xuan leave tonight.

Shen Xuan looked at Jiang Yu, and he knew perfectly well that Jiang Yu was telling the truth.

After some deliberation, he made a decision.

"You sleep on the bed, I'll sleep on the floor."

"Your Highness, you and the Crown Prince are getting married on the same day. Do you think there are countless eyes watching us in the entire palace today? The palace isn't a secret-free place; what if..."

"Alright, alright, I'll sleep here tonight. Tomorrow, I'll find an excuse to go to the study."

After Shen Xuan finished speaking, he impatiently took off his wedding clothes, and finally, the two lay down on the same bed.

At first, Jiang Yu slept on the inside, and Shen Xuan slept on the outside.

The two were very proper and seemed like complete strangers, ignoring each other.

A cup of tea passed.

Shen Xuan began to toss and turn, fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, his face was flushed, and he felt hot all over.

Jiang Yu remained lying flat, and sensing the reaction of the person beside her, she smiled slightly.

She saw the way Shen Xuan looked at her during the day and guessed that Shen Xuan disliked her.

So, when Shen Xuan went out to drink with guests, she instructed her maid to prepare aphrodisiac incense.

Judging by the time, the aphrodisiac incense has started to take effect.

Shen Xuan turned to look at Jiang Yu. In that instant, he forgot all his unhappiness and only felt that Jiang Yu was as beautiful as a fairy.

He wants Jiang Yu!

He flipped Jiang Yu over, pinning her beneath him, roughly tearing her clothes, and disregarding her feelings, he forced his way in...

……

Prince's Mansion.

Today, all the guests who left the Prince's residence went to the Crown Prince's residence.

The Crown Prince's residence had not prepared enough seats, so they rearranged them.

The kitchen was so busy cooking that they had to bring in people directly from Wujiangdu.

The entire mansion was filled with a joyous atmosphere.

Shen Pei held up his wine glass and toasted each person in turn.

"Congratulations to Your Highness the Crown Prince."

"Congratulations, Your Highness."

……

Shen Pei was overjoyed to hear these words of blessing.

Marrying the girl you love is like winning a battle; you feel triumphant, high-spirited, and beaming with joy.

"Father, I toast you." Shen Pei raised his wine cup.

"Very good." Emperor Changlong was overjoyed to see Shen Pei's happy face.

He finished his drink and instructed Shen Pei, "Pei'er, now that you've started a family, the burden on your shoulders is heavier. You not only have to manage the people of the world, but also take good care of your own family."

"Yes, Father," Shen Pei replied.

"Alright, I should return to the palace now." Emperor Changlong had only stayed for a drink; he couldn't possibly linger outside for too long.

He's finished his drink; it's time for him to leave.

The officials said, "Respectfully seeing off His Majesty."

Shen Pei wanted to see Emperor Changlong off, but Emperor Changlong refused, saying, "Pei'er, there's no need to see me off. You and everyone else have a good time."

"Yes, Father Emperor, I respectfully see you off." Shen Pei watched Emperor Changlong leave, then returned to drink with everyone.

"Your Highness, this cup of wine is for you." Huo Ye raised the wine cup and downed the wine in one gulp. "Your Highness, you are the happiest person in the world. Many people envy your happiness. I urge you to cherish the happiness you have."

He didn't want to be too explicit; Song Siyao was already married, and he didn't want to affect her.

Shen Pei understood the meaning behind Huo Ye's words, "No need for Young Master Huo to remind me, I cherish her as my own life."

"Thank you, Your Highness." Huo Ye downed another cup of wine.

Shen Pei didn't say much to him and continued drinking with the other guests.

An hour later, Shen Pei fell asleep from his drunkenness.

Wei Xin quickly helped him away, while the officials continued drinking.

Marriage room.

"Your Highness, His Highness the Crown Prince is drunk," Wei Xin reported from the doorway.

"Help him in," Song Siyao said.

"Yes." Wei Xin helped Shen Pei to sit down at the table. "Your Highness, I'm leaving now."

Song Si nodded.

Wei Xin left the room, and Hong Shao followed him out.

Hearing the door close, Shen Pei sat up straight instantly. He looked at the food on the table, which hadn't been touched, and asked softly, "Yaoyao, aren't you hungry?"

“I’ve already eaten. This is for you,” Song Siyao said.

Shen Pei stood up, picked up the jade ruyi, and lifted Song Siyao's red veil.

The candlelight shone on Song Siyao's face, making her even more beautiful.

Shen Pei felt his heart race. "Yaoyao, you're so beautiful."

"You're only beautiful today?" Song Siyao teased Shen Pei.

“In my heart, Yao Yao is beautiful every day, but she is especially beautiful today.” Shen Pei looked at Song Si Yao with eyes as gentle as water.

"Why are you so sweet-talking today? Did you just eat honey?" Song Siyao asked with a smile.

Shen Pei, with a serious expression, put his arm around Song Siyao's waist and asked, "Yaoyao, would you like to try some?"

He brought his mouth close as he spoke.

Song Siyao placed her finger on his lips. "Were you only focused on drinking at the banquet and didn't eat anything? I had the kitchen reheat the food, so it's still hot. Eat your fill first."

"I didn't drink much. I pretended to be drunk on purpose, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to come back for a long time."

Shen Pei looked at the table full of food. "But I'm actually a little hungry. My Yao Yao is the most considerate of all."

“Of course, you have to cherish your own husband.” Song Siyao served Shen Pei some food.

"Yaoyao, what did you call me just now?" Shen Pei asked Song Siyao, his face full of joy.

"No, did you hear me wrong?" Song Siyao asked seriously.

"I heard everything." Shen Pei hugged Song Siyao's waist, pulled her onto his lap, and cupped her face, saying, "Yaoyao, say it again."

"Let's eat first," Song Siyao refused.

"With you here, I don't need to eat." Shen Pei pinched Song Siyao's cheek and pecked her on the corner of her mouth.

"You don't need to eat, but what's wrong with eating?" Song Siyao asked.

"of course……"

Shen Pei picked up Song Siyao and carried her away from the wedding bed.
