Translator: Storm in a Teacup
Qi Cheng replied.
“You can leave now,” Si Yuhan had never shifted his gaze from his contemplation of the entrance of Ruanhan Palace.
Qi Cheng responded in a low voice, “Yes!”
For a few minutes, there was only Si Yuhan outside the entrance of the palace. The cold wind blew past him and he was a little dazed.
He subconsciously wanted to pinch the tassels of the sword tied to his waist, but it fell through. He felt alarmed and looked down, then he remembered that he had taken it down in order not to let Ke Ruan know it.
This time, he didn’t feel okay with it.
Si Yuhan was a little annoyed. Ke Ruan should be blamed for it. If it hadn’t been for him, he wouldn’t have ended up like this, so humiliated and useless that he even loathed to throw such a ragged thing.
Si Yuhan swished his sleeves, raising a gust of strong wind.
Meanwile, Ke Ruan who was in the bath suddenly sneezed. He was dozing off just now but suddenly woke up.
He thought the water was cold and it was time to get out, but the temperature of the water was still very high.
However, it was time to get out of the bathtub. He had stayed in the bath water for too long, and his fingers even started to turn white.
“Your Majesty, have you finished bathing?”
Coincidentally, the maid outside the door started to urge him.
Ke Ruan quickly got up, wiped his body and grabbed the clothes.
When he looked at it, he realized that it was a Chinese wedding dress. There was no need for him to explain how he knew it. Being fully vermilion, what else could it be if it wasn’t the Chinese wedding dress?
He blushed. Everything was red and the dress on his body was also red. Everything reminded him that he was married to the male lead.
‘Damn it!’
He took the clothes and looked carefully at them. Luckily, none of the them was designed for women, which comforted him a little. After all, as a straight man, he didn’t have the hobby of dressing himself up like a girl. So he wouldn’t wear women’s clothes.
Without hearing Ke Ruan’s voice for a long time, the maid outside the door seemed to be a little anxious, and her voice became more intense. “Your Majesty, have you finished bathing?”
Ke Ruan quickly put on his clothes before replying, “Yes.”
When the palace maids heard it, they walked in with their heads lowered. When they looked sideways at Ke Ruan who was well groomed, they raised their heads slightly. “Please go to the nuptial chamber, Your Majesty.”
Ke Ruan took a deep breath, ‘Calm down, I must endure it. I don’t need to reason with them for they are not thinking in the same way with me.’
“Let’s go.”
Ke Ruan followed them through the passage carpeted in red and soon walked to a room. There was a palace lamp hanging in front of the room with the Chinese character ‘Double Happiness’ written on it. And the character painted by the powder and covered with gold leaf was affixed to the big gilding red door.
The scene along the way together with the decorations of the house just made Ke Ruan want to say they were extravagant and a waste of money.
The money was earned through the hard work of ordinary people.
The palace maid opened the room and said, “Your Majesty, please.”
Ke Ruan walked in.
Only when he saw what was inside the room did he realize that he was really like a frog at the bottom of a well who could only see the little patch of sky above.
Or perhaps he had never really gotten married before that he even had never seen his former empress.
‘If I got married with a woman, probably it would also be like this.’
Ke Ruan sighed.
There were gold, jade and other treasures in the room, which was sumptuous. And the wedding bed was covered with the big thick red mattress embroidered with the shapes of Chinese dragon and phoenix and the character ‘Double Happiness’. The bedding included bright yellow and vermilion wedding quilt and pillows with beautiful pictures and consummate embroidery, which were perfectly luxurious.
The table was filled with all kinds of vegetables, fruits and pastries. He didn’t feel it yet before seeing them. But when he saw the food, he was completely weak and sat down on the stool. After being busy all day, he was really hungry.
Ke Ruan waved his hand. “You can go out. I’ll do it myself.”
“But…”
“If anything happens, I will take the blame.”
The palace maids anwered in a low voice, “Yes!”
Then she bent down and left.
