Wrapped In Golden Branch - Chapter 7
Chapter 7
The Prince Consort has been replaced (the Emperor and Empress’s H)
An imperial edict was issued a few days later, and the palace was like having a storm.
North of Ruyi Resort, Yanyu Tower.
“Have you heard about it?” The mysterious-looking noble lady in purple clothes asked.
The others nodded tacitly- The Prince Consort had been replaced.
The tenth day of September was the auspicious day that the Imperial Astronomical Observatory had already chosen for the Eldest Princess to marry Pei Yujin, the Heir of Huai’an Marquis Mansion. The wedding date remained unchanged after the replacement, and the new Prince Consort was the former Prince Consort’s half-brother, Cavalry General Pei Yizhi, who recently made significant contributions in suppressing the Eleuth Rebellion not long ago!
One whispered: “Is it because the Princess thinks her brother-in-law is better, so she asked for a change?”
The atmosphere was stagnant, and no one dared answer this question.
Only the Consort of Linzi County, sitting at the top, sighed, “Your Majesty and the Empress spoil the Princess too much.”
The King of Linzi County was a close relative of the royal family. In terms of seniority, he was the cousin of the current Emperor. Since his niece’s granddaughter, Miss Xiao, became the Crown Princess, the King of Linzi County and his wife began to take advantage of their seniority in recent years.
“Alas, Your Majesty and the Empress only have this one daughter, so they naturally treasure her. It’s a pity that Heir Pei’s half-brother snatched his marriage.”
Everyone was silent and secretly agreed in their hearts. Everyone knew how handsome and modest the Heir of Huai’an Marquis was. Although the Huai’an Marquis Mansion declined, Heir Pei’s uncle, Qiao Kaiyuan, was a frontier official in Shaanxi and Gansu. He achieved the t*tle of Juren at the age of 20 and would be promoted to the court and appointed as a prime minister soon.
“I heard the engagement was canceled because of his bad behavior.” The lady of an unknown family said this in a mosquito-like voice.
Another person also whispered: “I heard that Heir Pei was secretly flirting with other women, and the Princess caught him…”
The rest of the people were silent, shocked in their hearts.
“You heard it left and right, but isn’t all groundless?” The Consort of Linzi County felt humiliated.
She said confidently: “The ceremonies for this marriage have been done halfway, and the Princess suddenly changed her husband when the wedding date was approaching. So disrespectful…”
“Who was disrespectful?” A clear and dignified female voice interrupted the words of the Consort of Linzi County.
The ladies present were shocked and hurriedly stood up to salute.
“I pay my respects to the Princess. May the Princess be blessed with good health.”
Even the Consort of Linzi County, who had just been talking recklessly, bowed obediently. Although she was of a higher generation, the Princess was the daughter of the Emperor and represented the monarch, and she understood the hierarchy between the monarch and the ministers.
Until the Princess said, “No need to be polite,” everyone stood up with relief.
The Consort of Linzi County broke into a cold sweat for herself. Unsure how long the Princess has been here and how much she has heard?
Li Kangning raised her eyebrows and asked leisurely, “Who is this?”
“Your Royal Highness, I am Mrs. Liu, the King of Linzi County’s wife.” The Consort of Linzi County blushed and turned pale. She was proud of being an elder of the royal family and the great-aunt of the current Crown Princess and thought that the Princess would give her some face. Who would have thought the Princess didn’t know who she was?
“Oh, it turns out to be the Consort of Linzi County.” Li Kangning was too lazy to figure out what kind of relative she was.
“The ceremonies have indeed been done halfway, but this Princess still married into the Huai’an Marquis’s Mansion. How could it be disrespectful?”
The Consort of Linzi County smiled awkwardly, revealing the wrinkles on her face. “Princess, please forgive me. I was blind and said something rude.”
“I know my mistake. Please don’t take it to heart.”
Li Kangning was not unreasonable. When she decided to change her husband, she guessed that there would be such a thing–
That day on the embankment of Qianqing Lake. The tall man’s ears were red: “If Your Highness chooses a new husband again, can you consider me?”
Perhaps it was because the lotus on the lake was gorgeous and delicate, or maybe it was because the breeze that day was enjoyable and comfortable, causing Li Kangning to nod and agree.
The man was initially in disbelief and was stunned for a long time. “Really?” His shining eyes exposed his joy.
After a pause, he realized that he was too excited. “I will never do anything to betray the Princess,” he said earnestly, with a sincere look.
Li Kangning looked at him and suddenly rem*mbered the Princess Mansion built over a year ago. She was engaged to the Heir of Huai’an Marquis, so the Princess Mansion was naturally built on the east side of Huai’an Marquis Mansion; there were even several doors toward the Marquis Mansion. Her father and mother loved her, and the specifications of the mansion were far beyond the ordinary Princess Mansion, with carved beams and embroidered pillars, green tiles, and red roofs. Her two residences, the imperial palace in the capital and the Rehe Palace, were also renovated. At that time, even censors tactfully advised that the Princess’s mansion was too luxurious. Now that she and Pei Yujin had broken off their engagement, the Princess’s mansion would naturally be abandoned. But what if she replaced her husband with Pei Yizhi, who was also the son of the Huai’an Marquis?
She knew that Pei Yizhi would die on the battlefield in about a year, but wouldn’t it be more comfortable to be a widow? As long as she got married, she could leave the palace and open a mansion, and her grandmother would no longer urge her to get married.
Late at night, Yaotai Palace.
After the love affair, the charming atmosphere in the bedroom was still spreading. Because her daughter’s marriage was not going well, the Emperor and Empress had no mind for love affairs these days and had been vegetarian for several days. Realizing that the man’s fierce thing was still erect, Empress Kang trembled.
“Your Majesty, don’t…” Empress Kang panted.
After the love affair, she was w*t all over, as if she had just been pulled out of the water. The plain satin bed sheet with dragon and phoenix pattern was soaked in a large area, and it was hard to tell whether it was sweat or honey from intercourse. The Emperor’s Adam’s apple rolled up and down, and his eyes burned like fire. He kissed his beloved wife’s flawless forehead, “Good girl, come again.”
The Emperor practiced martial arts for many years, and his body was tall and robust. Even though he was over 40, his physical strength was still incredible. Empress Kang had been pampered for many years and had delicate skin and tender flesh. Now that she was getting older, she really couldn’t bear it. The man played with the round and white snow-white br*asts of the pet*te woman in his arms with one hand and gently rubbed her swollen and congested flesh with the other hand. The thick and ferocious s*x organ was against the muddy water hole, stroking and caressing and occasionally pushing in a little.
Empress Kang was a bright, s*xy, graceful woman with big br*asts and hips when she was young. Now that she was older and rounder, her already plump br*asts were even more eye-catching. After the man’s skilled teasing, her smooth and tender skin flushed, and her whole body was as soft as if she had no bones. The rough meat stick was inserted entirely, and the Emperor stood up and held his wife in the posture of carrying a b*by to pee. This posture was intense, and she was emotional, with an alluring flush all over her body. The ambiguous sound of the collision of the flesh sounded again, faintly mixed with the charming and sensual moans of the woman.
After the affair stopped, the two cleaned up and lay back on the bed. Empress Kang then rem*mbered what she had been thinking about all day. “Why did Your Majesty agree to let Ningning change her husband? Even if you had to change him, don’t find someone named Pei again…” She said in a somewhat resentful tone.
The man pulled her to the bed as soon as he came tonight, causing her to forget this crucial matter.
“I think Pei Yizhi is good. Since Ningning took the initiative to ask, why not?” The Emperor answered in a hoarse voice.
Empress Kang said coquettishly: “How do you know he is good? He just returned from the northwest, and I haven’t checked him carefully!”
The Emperor thought momentarily before saying: “Yu’er, do you still remember that three years ago, Ningning was in Yanshan…”
When Empress Kang heard this, her face changed slightly.
The Emperor sighed lightly and embraced his beloved wife, “Pei Yizhi was that young man.”
