Chapter 948 The Ghost and the Old-Fashioned Scholar (19)
Shen Shuyi was trying on her wedding dress when she heard the housekeeper's message that Wei Ling had come to visit. She replied indifferently, "I won't see him."
Instead of mocking Wei Ling, it would be more practical to punish his family.
He keeps breaking off engagements, leaving her in a terrible position. If it weren't for him, Chu Ruyan wouldn't have been so determined to kill the original owner of this body.
The Wei family is now implicated, which is the karmic retribution.
Wei Ling left in a daze, only to suddenly bump into a handsome man who could walk straight into the Prime Minister's residence without being announced.
It's obvious without much thought that the man was Wen Yanci, the newly appointed top scholar in the imperial examination, and also the son-in-law of Prime Minister Shen.
The thought that Shen Shuyi would marry such a promising man made him feel uneasy.
……
On the day of the wedding of the Prime Minister's daughter and the newly appointed top scholar, the capital's Zhuque Avenue was adorned with ten miles of red bridal procession, colorful ribbons and flowers hung from the eaves, the suona played "Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix," and the sheng, xiao and drum music resounded together, with firecrackers going off one after another, creating a lively and festive atmosphere.
Wen Yanci, dressed in a bright red wedding robe and with his hair tied up in a golden crown, rode a white horse to the front of the Prime Minister's residence. The bridal sedan chair was parked outside the gate of the Prime Minister's residence. When the auspicious hour arrived, Shen Shuyi was helped out of the gate.
On their wedding night, the red candles flickered.
Wen Yanci lifted the veil and saw Shen Shuyi's bright, moon-like face, and his heart suddenly stirred.
Seeing that he was staring blankly, Shen Shuyi scolded him, "What are you standing there for?"
"Hurry up, we still need to drink the nuptial wine."
Wen Yanci poured her a glass of wine, but didn't hand it to her immediately. "Are you hungry?"
"You should not drink alcohol on an empty stomach."
Shen Shuyi shook her head. "I'm not hungry. I ate while you were entertaining the guests."
"What about you?"
"I've finished eating too." Wen Yanci thanked Liu Qian and the others for helping him drink quite a bit of wine.
"The maid said it was you who brought me food, so I couldn't wait to go back to the bridal chamber."
Shen Shuyi took the wine glass from his hand. "I'm just afraid you'll get so drunk you won't know what's going on."
Wen Yanci put one arm around her waist and raised his cup with the other to drink a toast with her.
His gaze fell on Shen Shuyi's rosy cheeks, noticing her smiling eyes and the wine she hadn't fully tasted sliding down her lips.
Wen Yanci's eyes grew even more profound.
Shen Shuyi noticed the change in his expression, and the smile in her eyes grew even wider.
She poured Wen Yanci another glass of wine.
But the man had lost his appetite for drinking. He grabbed her hand, put down his glass, and pulled her into his arms.
Shen Shuyi slumped into his lap, wrapping her arms around his neck. "Brother Yanci, are you not going to drink anymore?"
"I'm not drinking anymore." Wen Yanci's eyes were like fire, and his Adam's apple bobbed.
Shen Shuyi released one arm, picked up the wine glass, took a sip of wine, and then leaned over to pass it to Wen Yanci.
Some of the fiery liquor flowed down the man's throat, and he could no longer resist grabbing Shen Shuyi's head and kissing her lips.
Shen Shuyi placed her hand on Wen Yanci's chest, inspecting the results of his training during this period.
What you touch is solid muscle; beneath the gentle and refined scholar's robes lies a strong physique.
Wen Yanci felt the small hand moving downwards, and the cherry lips even kissed his Adam's apple.
His whole body tensed up, a feeling of unease spreading throughout his body, even his breathing became completely disordered.
Shen Shuyi wrapped her arms around Wen Yanci's neck and whispered in his ear, "Husband."
Wen Yanci's handsome face turned red to the roots of his ears. He gripped Shen Shuyi's waist and said in a hoarse voice, "Yiyi, don't cry later."
He scooped Shen Shuyi up and carried her to the bed, seizing all the sweetness from her.
This time, his kiss was punitive, fierce and violent.
Shen Shuyi then realized that she had really provoked the gentle and refined man. She hugged Wen Yanci's neck and tilted her head back to accept his kiss.
The curtains fell, and a red ribbon draped over the edge of the bed.
As they interacted, Wen Yanci became increasingly skilled, striving to give Shen Shuyi a tender and joyful wedding night.
The man's hand slowly and gently traced her waist, and Shen Shuyi was starting to feel overwhelmed. "Wen Yanci, how come you're getting better and better at this?"
Every time Wen Yanci touched her, it felt like an electric current was flowing through her body, causing ripples to spread.
As Wen Yanci listened to her sweet voice, he looked up at his newlywed wife beneath him. Her cheeks were flushed, and she was extremely alluring.
His Adam's apple bobbed, and he bent down completely.
……
……
Throughout the night, Shen Shuyi vaguely saw the man with his head buried in his hands, and she was so embarrassed that she quickly closed her eyes.
……
The red candle burned until dawn, and the two of them slept in each other's arms on the bed.
Since Shen Shuyi had no in-laws, she naturally slept until late morning.
When she woke up, she was facing Wen Yanci's strong chest. She asked in a muffled voice, "What time is it?"
"Don't worry about it, you can sleep as long as you want." Wen Yanci hugged her. "Are you hungry? Should I have someone bring in some food?"
Shen Shuyi shook her head, "I don't want to eat, and I don't want to move."
"Let's eat something else." Wen Yanci hugged her tighter.
Shen Shuyi felt the man slowly rubbing against her, and she punched him lightly, saying, "Aren't you supposed to be only interested in studying the classics? How can you be so greedy?"
Wen Yanci felt the soft warmth under his palm. "No wonder so many sages couldn't resist the power of love. It turns out there are so many wonderful things about indulging in matters of love."
Shen Shuyi quickly hid inside the bed.
Then Wen Yanci grabbed her foot and pulled her back into his arms. Just when she thought..., she heard the man's muffled laughter.
"Don't run away, I'll have someone bring in food and feed you, okay?"
Shen Shuyi then realized she had been tricked by this man. "Hmph, you lied to me!"
“No, if Madam would like to eat something else, that’s fine too.” Wen Yanci kissed the back of her hand.
Shen Shuyi quickly got up, "I'm scared of you!"
……
Shen Shuyi achieved 100% mission completion. On the day Chu Ruyan was sentenced to beheading and public display, she applied for leave from the Administration Bureau and spent her life in this small world with Wen Yanci.
The Wei family was implicated, and Minister Wei was not only demoted, but also forced to retire and return to his hometown due to involvement in other matters.
Wei Ling became the laughingstock of the entire capital, blind to the truth, marrying such a vicious and venomous woman and abandoning his childhood sweetheart.
No respectable family in the capital would marry their daughter to him anymore. Wei Ling was devastated and nearly drank himself to death. He was in a daze and became completely despondent.
Shen Shuyi didn't know much about what happened after that. When System 66 reappeared, it asked her if she wanted a painless childbirth pill.
Shen Shuyi thought for a moment and shook her head. "No need. I don't plan to have any children in this small world. I just want to spend my life with Wen Yanci and help him successfully overcome his tribulation and return to his position as the Immortal of the Star of Literature."
[Yes, host!]
"Shuyi, what are you thinking about?" Wen Yanci was getting dressed when he saw Shen Shuyi resting her chin on her hand and staring intently at him.
Shen Shuyi walked up to him and said, "I want to help you put on your court robes."
"Are you wearing this today? Getting promoted really makes a difference; this court robe makes you look even more dignified."
"Mmm." Wen Yanci looked at his beloved wife who was carefully dressing him, and he lowered his head to kiss Shen Shuyi on the forehead.
"Sleep a little longer, I'll buy you osmanthus sugar chestnut flour cake when I come back from court."
"Okay." Shen Shuyi methodically straightened his clothes, took a step back, looked at him with satisfaction, and nodded.
Her husband looks really handsome in his court robes.
Before leaving, Wen Yanci pulled her into his arms, wrapped his arms around her waist, and kissed her lips.
He found that he could never get enough of kissing her.
Shen Shuyi blushed and pushed the person away, "If we don't go out now, we'll be late."
Wen Yanci reluctantly let go, pecked the corner of her lips, and said with a smile, "Yiyi, I'm going out."
Shen Shuyi pushed him out the door, "Okay!"
