"Don't make people angry." Xiao Junhe helplessly held Shen Ning's hand and held her tightly in his arms. "We have to go back in a while. If we get up late, there will inevitably be rumors in the house, which will be detrimental to you. ."

In the Qin State, a woman's reputation is more important than anything else.

Xiao Junhe always thinks too much about Shen Ning.

Shen Ning's body was also a little hot, and it wasn't just Xiao Junhe who couldn't help it.

In Shen Ning's opinion, Xiao Junhe is the devil.

There is a sense of security about this man that is fascinating...

"It won't be long. It's still early. Let's give it a try?" Shen Ning's cheeks turned red, and she was obviously a little hopeful when she said this.

Xiao Junhe looked at Shen Ning, who was like a little rabbit in his arms, and his heart skipped a beat.

This is the Shen Ning he is familiar with...

Shen Ning, who was full of hostility and whose eyes were full of calculation and murderous intent, felt strange to him.

Obviously, Shen Ning had put down her guard and vigilance in front of him.

Xiao Junhe felt warm in his heart and raised his lips helplessly. "You seem to know nothing about your man."

Shen Ning didn't understand. "Before the wedding... have you ever seen erotic pictures?"

Her ears turned red even more, and Shen Ning touched the small box on the bedside.

Her mother-in-law told her that there was a book of erotic pictures in the little secret compartment beside the bed of the newlyweds, which was drawn by the palace painter himself.

Shen Ning touched it, and sure enough there was a booklet.

Xiao Junhe took a deep breath, Shen Ning wanted his life...

"Ning'er, you are really..." Xiao Junhe hugged Shen Ning tightly and took a breath. "Be obedient and put it back."

"Let's study together." Shen Ning opened the booklet curiously, and her cheeks instantly turned redder.

"This...what are these..."

Nervously closing the booklet, Shen Ning stuffed it back into the small secret compartment. "It's just... the painting is not good."

Xiao Junhe was amused by Shen Ning, his little wife is so cute...

"Don't worry, if you want, let's learn all the postures in the booklet, okay?" Xiao Junhe held Shen Ning in his arms and rubbed his head lovingly.

He still had to endure it.

He is a rough guy who has practiced martial arts for many years, and Shen Ning is the delicate eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

It would be bad if you upset someone and delay your return home.

"Well..." Shen Ning responded softly.

Xiao Junhe only felt a numbness in his heart.

Shen Ning... is she really willing to follow him?

Looking down at Shen Ning, Xiao Junhe sighed.

Regardless of whether Shen Ning was sincere or not, he seemed to be stuck in it.

This heart, this life, already belongs to her.

"Princess, it's time to wash up."

He Lianxiao got up early to practice martial arts, letting Shen Ning sleep a little longer, and specifically asked the maid not to disturb him too early.

The maid looked at the time and looked at Shen Ning with a smile. "Princess, you are so lucky. The prince cares so much about you that he even uses the deep well in the backyard for the water you use for washing."

There is a little rumor among women in Kyoto that the water from the deep well is good for women’s skin.

Jin Prince Xiao Junhe, who had always been oblivious to what was going on outside the window and treated everyone as nothing, actually paid attention to these small details one day.

Shen Ning's ears turned red and she spoke in a low voice, "He is always... thoughtful for me."

"No, our princess is so lucky." Chuntao said at the side. "I just went to count the gifts for returning home. The prince is eager to move all the good things in Youdu Mansion to please his father-in-law."

After finishing speaking, Chuntao covered her mouth and chuckled.

Shen Ning's heart felt warm as she sat in front of the bronze mirror.

It turns out...this is what it feels like to be pampered.

In her previous life, she was too stupid and insisted on marrying Xiao Chengyin.

In the Qin State, it was the bride's honor to return home on the second day.

Whether her husband's family pays attention to her or not, all depends on the congratulatory gifts when she returns home.

In the previous life, Xiao Chengyin didn't even have to go back home. He coaxed her into going back on her own on the grounds that it was not good for the prince to be too close to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Along the way, she suffered a lot of humiliation.

Moreover, after living for two lifetimes, Shen Ning has already lived through life.

The servants in this palace are all people who follow the influence of others.

The expression on her face also depends entirely on their master.

In her previous life, Xiao Chengyin never spent the night in her room, and those maids were never polite to her. Some even said bad things about her in front of her face, trying to curry favor with Liu Wanying, who later joined the palace.

But Xiao Junhe gave her enough face.

Although it is too sad for a woman to live on the dignity given by a man, what a man is willing to give and what she forces are two different concepts.

Sighing, Shen Ning looked at herself in the bronze mirror and fell into deep thought.

What she has always been a little afraid of is the rule that the palace has to have a new bride for half a month after the wedding.

In the Qin State, in order to expand the royal family, there was a rule that after the palace decided on the princess, it had to wait half a month before selecting the concubine.

It is also up to the princess to take care of it and select for the prince among girls of suitable age and similar family background.

This is also a time to show the princess's generosity and tolerance.

Shen Ning's fingers tightened.

She is neither generous nor tolerant.

She suddenly... was greedy and didn't want to share Xiao Junhe's goodness with any woman.

In her previous life, she had never felt this jealous when facing Xiao Chengyin.

Although she didn't like Liu Wanying, she did choose a concubine for Xiao Chengyin.

"Princess, it's time for us to leave, the prince is waiting for you."

Shen Ning came back to her senses and glanced at Xiao Junhe who was standing at the door.

Suddenly, my nose felt a little sore.

He stood there against the light, like a god...

The god who came to save her from darkness and hell.

"Xiao Junhe." Shen Ning smiled at Xiao Junhe and reached out her hand.

Xiao Junhe raised his hand to hold Shen Ning's hand and led her out of the house. "Father, please allow me to follow you back home."

He was still under confinement, but the emperor was extremely grateful for his kindness.

Shen Ning nodded, her heart beating rapidly.

She is not stupid, she can feel that Xiao Junhe cares about her.

…

Prime Minister's Mansion.

Because the princess came back today, all the relatives from the Prime Minister's Mansion, including the seventh aunt and the eighth aunt.

Shen Bozhong's first wife died early, not long after giving birth to Shen Ning.

Shen Ning is Shen Bozhong's only daughter and his most beloved daughter.

Shen Bozhong has an elder brother and a younger brother and sister.

That is, Shen Ning's uncle, uncle, and aunt.

The prince took the princess back home. According to the ancestral system, they all should be there.

What's more, the Qin State has a rule that on the day of returning home, all the girls of the right age from these relatives must be brought to the princess for inspection, so that the princess can give priority to her own sisters when choosing the prince's concubine.

"Oh, we Ning'er are so lucky. Even though Prince Jin... has a great reputation, he is very talented and powerful. He is our god of war."

"Yes, the prince is good-looking."

The aunt smiled and praised her, and looked at each other with a smile. "In a moment, when your sister is serving tea, you can bring the tea over."

The little girl smiled shyly.

If the prince falls in love with her...

She can marry into the prince's palace.

Outside the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Xiao Junhe got off the carriage first, raised his hand to support Shen Ning, and expressed his preference for Shen Ning vividly.

"Your Majesty, I'll come." The maid wanted to step forward.

"What are you worrying about?" Chuntao grabbed the maid.

Shen Ning smiled, grabbed Xiao Junhe's hand, and got out of the carriage.

Xiao Junhe made the procession back to the gate very large, surrounded by people watching the excitement.
