The Cold King Demands Love and Pleasure

However, Xia Tongsheng is no person; she wouldn't take this to heart. In any case, Min Youan's actions not only embarrassed her but also brought shame upon the royal family.

Xia Tongsheng didn't have to wait long before the sound of suona horns rang out, and Min Youan came out of "Jiaoli Garden".

Xia Tongsheng couldn't help but complain, "It's over so quickly, is the valiant Prince An a quickie?" Thinking of this, Xia Tongsheng couldn't help but chuckle.

But thinking about it, I suddenly feel a little sad. The "Super Boy" she mentioned is her own husband!

Before she could even observe a moment of silence, Xia Tongsheng caught a glimpse of a striking red color out of the corner of her eye, and her expression turned cold. People around her began to point and whisper.

Even the usually calm Yingling lost her composure. "Miss, how could the young master do this!"

Xia Tongsheng tried to pull her skirt up, whether to lighten her load or to calm her anger, it was unclear. "Yingling, calm down, we can't damage our status, right?"

"Miss, you really are... very patient!"

Xia Tongsheng sneered, touching the nail polish on her fingernails with one hand. "Should I poison her, or have someone strangle her?"

Yingling said speechlessly, "Miss, what happened to your composure?"

"I'm very calm, so calm that all I want to do is kill someone!" Xia Tongsheng said through gritted teeth.

Yingling: "......"

With music and fanfare, the bridal sedan chair was brought into the gate. Min You'an kicked the sedan chair door a few times, and Granny Gui immediately helped Xia Tongsheng out of the sedan chair. Min You'an then led her into the Prince An's residence.

The people around were discussing it animatedly.

"The Xia family's daughter is truly blessed to marry into the royal family!"

"Prince An and Miss Xia are truly a perfect match!"

"..."

Good fortune my foot! A perfect match my foot! You haven't even seen my face, yet you say we're a perfect match? Aren't you afraid to lift the veil and reveal myself as a hideous monster? Don't drag me into this if you're trying to flatter the royal family!

"Worship heaven and earth!"

"Two thanks to the high hall!"

"Couple greetings!"

"Send to the bridal chamber!"

"Wait!" Min Youan said expressionlessly, causing a murmur among the guests. Then, ignoring their reactions, he turned and left.

The emperor, seated on his throne, completely ignored Min Yoo-an's actions.

Compared to the Emperor's indifference, Consort Jing felt sorry for Xia Tongsheng, but there was nothing she could do.

Xia Tongsheng sneered, "What was bound to happen has finally happened!"

Sure enough, not long after, he brought another woman, also dressed in wedding attire, to the wedding ceremony.

The guests present were somewhat taken aback, but since it was a royal wedding, no one dared to speak, and the air around them was somewhat frozen.

Seeing this, the master of ceremonies glanced at the Emperor and Consort Jing. When the Emperor nodded to him, he immediately cleared his throat and announced, "First bow to Heaven and Earth!"

"Two thanks to the high hall!"

"Couple greetings!"

"......"

The same procedure, the same words, sounded so ironic to Xia Tongsheng!

Yes, it's so ironic. The groom took a concubine while marrying his wife. He really is having two women on his hands!

In fact, on the night of the victory celebration banquet, after Xia Xiuyong left, the emperor specially summoned Min Youan to the palace.

He told Min Youan that he wanted to marry Xia Tongsheng to him, but the boy refused no matter what. In the end, he even made a condition: "If you agree to let me marry Xue'er, I will agree to this marriage!"

The emperor's only goal was to have Xia Tongsheng marry into the royal family; who she married and how she married were completely unimportant to him.

He was very unhappy that his son was negotiating with him, but he eventually agreed in order to achieve his goal, which led to these events.

Min Youan glanced sideways at the composed Xia Tongsheng. He thought that after humiliating her like this, she would confront him relentlessly or cause a scene at the wedding. Unexpectedly, she was so calm.

At this moment, Xia Tongsheng was thinking about her father. She feared that if he knew the truth, he would confront the emperor. She hoped he would be a little more sensible. Otherwise, the Xia family...

But since things have come to this, she can only take it one step at a time!

"Send them to the bridal chamber!" the emcee shouted loudly. Then, Xia Tongsheng and Gu Xue were helped back to their respective homes to find their mothers.

Meanwhile, news of Min You'an marrying both of them had already reached the Xia family. Xia Xiuyong angrily crushed a cup with his bare hands, wanting to go to the emperor to argue, but his daughter had already completed the wedding ceremony, so arguing would be useless.

Sigh, he just wants to bang his head against a wall right now. He's lived all these years in vain! He couldn't even protect his daughter!

Xia Tongsheng sat on the wedding bed. "Granny, you've worked hard today too. I'm all done here, you can go and rest now!"

The matchmaker hesitated, "This... what if the prince..."

"Don't worry, the prince won't be coming tonight! Yingling, give some silver ingots to the nanny."

Nobody's stupid. Anyone can see that the prince doesn't like the princess. Otherwise, why would he take a concubine on his wedding day?

Yingling took out two silver ingots from her bosom and handed them to the nanny. When the nanny saw them, she felt that the princess was very generous and was happy, but she dared not accept them. "Your Highness, this is too much for this old servant!"

"Granny, you've worked hard today too, this is what you deserve. I'm tired too, you can go now!"

Granny Gui accepted the silver with a smile and then left the room.

After the matchmaker walked away, Xia Tongsheng ripped off her red veil and gasped for breath. Yingling, seeing this, immediately stopped her, "Miss, you should wait for the groom to lift the red veil for you!"

"By the time he arrives, your young lady will have suffocated!" As she spoke, she became even more brazen, tearing off her headdress and then taking off her wedding dress. She then stretched and exclaimed, "Ah, how relaxing!"

"Miss, what if the young master comes and sees you like this..."

"You said it was just in case. I may not be perfect, but I am self-aware!"

Yingling felt indignant on Xia Tongsheng's behalf, "Miss, the young master is really going too far! He's obviously bullying you!"

"What can we do? They're higher-ranking officials. But there's always tomorrow..." Xia Tongsheng said with a sinister smile.

Yingling knew what that smile meant, and she immediately closed her eyes and silently mourned for her son-in-law for a few seconds.

Before they knew it, it was already dark, and all the guests had left. Min Youan sat in the front hall, wondering, "Are they all dead?"

Cang Jue nodded. "The assassins we just captured all committed suicide in prison!"

“The assassins, it seems they aren’t the Crown Prince’s men.” Min You’an tapped the table repeatedly, his expression unreadable.

Cang Jue glanced at Min You'an and reminded him, "Your Highness, is today your joyous day?"

"Great joy?" Min Youan sneered, a sinister glint flashing in his eyes.

Cang Jue immediately fell silent.

Only after Min Youan got up and walked away did he finally relax a little.

When Min Youan arrived at the East Garden, he saw Xia Tongsheng's wedding dress lying on the ground at the entrance, while she was washing her face in a white undergarment.

How much did this woman not want me to come? On our wedding night, before I could even lift her veil, she had already taken off her wedding dress. I couldn't help but feel a little angry, and a hint of coldness flashed in my eyes.

Feeling a strange chill, Xia Tongsheng thought it was just a gust of wind.

Min Youan stepped inside. Xia Tongsheng heard the sound and mistook it for Yingling returning. While wiping her face, she said, "Yingling, didn't I tell you to take more food? Why are you back so soon?"

She turned around and bumped into Min Youan's chest. She screamed and stumbled backward, accidentally hitting the washbasin behind her, and a sharp pain shot through her waist.

She quickly regained her composure, lowered her head, gently rubbed her lower back, and said with a forced smile, "Your Highness, what brings you here?"

Min Youan grabbed Xia Tongsheng's chin, forcing her to look into his eyes. "What? This isn't my bridal chamber? Am I mistaken?"

Xia Tongsheng immediately waved her hand and said with a forced smile, "No, no, how could Your Highness be wrong!"

He raised an eyebrow and said, "Take off your clothes!"

"What?" Xia Tongsheng was a little surprised. What was going on? He married another woman in front of her during the day, and now he was coming to her at night to play the lovey-dovey card.

But wasn't Min Yoo-an supposed to be gay? How could he possibly consummate the marriage with me?

Min Youan simply looked at her without saying a second time, but the warning in his eyes was ambiguous yet stern. Xia Tongsheng stammered, "Your Highness, I am not feeling well today. You should go to your sister's room."

It means that my aunt is visiting, so you can't force me to consummate the marriage.

Min Youan looked at Xia Tongsheng with disdain in his eyes. Although his father agreed to let him marry Gu Xue, his mother made a condition that he consummate his marriage with Xia Tongsheng on their wedding night. Otherwise, his mother would beat Gu Xue to death. Otherwise, he would not have come to the East Garden.

"I don't want to say it a second time!"

Xia Tongsheng quickly thought about it and foolishly assumed that he might just want to sleep and was used to having others help him take off his clothes.

That's why he asked me to help him undress.

Yes, it's that simple!

Xia Tongsheng gritted her teeth and made a tough decision. Just kidding, she was from the 21st century, and she had seen naked men before.

Thinking of this, she grabbed Min Youan's belt with both hands, closed her eyes, and groped to take off his outer garment. Just as she was about to take off his inner garment, Min Youan grabbed her wrist, his hawk-like eyes staring at her with a slightly bloodshot look as if he wanted to devour her.

Xia Tongsheng crossed her arms to protect her chest and slowly backed away until her back touched the wooden edge of the bed. With nowhere left to retreat, she leaned back until her face loomed infinitely large, then closed her eyes.

But his touch didn't come for a long time. When she opened her eyes, he was already lying in bed, clearly not leaving any room for her.

"Are you kidding me?"

Xia Tongsheng was seething with anger all day, first from the brothel, then the concubine, and finally...

No way, I have to move 10% back. Aren't you gay? I'm going to deliberately disgust you!

She rose and pressed herself against Min You'an's chest, giggling as she said, "Your Highness, shall I help you rest?"

Min Youan glanced at her coldly, the bloodshot in his eyes long gone, replaced by a cold expression. He hooked her chin with his index finger and gave a cold snort.

He rolled over and pinned Xia Tongsheng down. Her body had a refreshing, alluring fragrance. He slowly kissed her neck, which startled Xia Tongsheng, who pushed him away forcefully with both hands.

However, her little bit of strength had no effect on him at all. Moreover, she could clearly feel that the man was already having a physical reaction. Xia Tongsheng knew that she had played with fire.

How could this be? Isn't he gay? Why would he react to me?
