Chapter 172 The red candle is on the first

It was broad daylight outside the carved window, but red candles were lit in the new house, and red wedding words were posted on the windows, cabinets, and beds. The bright red color covered the bride's beauty, which made her childish and pure white face more charming.

Guo's cheeks were flushed and full of shame, but he smiled faintly, which was just an indescribable charm and lingering feeling.

Zhu Gaoxu walked up to her and she avoided her gaze, but the corner of her eyes was obviously paying attention to him, as if she couldn't stand the too strong affection and wanted to hide, but she couldn't bear it.

She sat upright beside the bed, gracefully, holding her hands together and putting them on her knees, so nervous that she dared not move. Under dignity and restraint, she was clearly sitting by the bed waiting for something, without any resistance, as if she was catering to the matter. It made people unable to tell whether she was rejecting or greeting.

This is the natural reaction of a fourteen-year-old girl who has never experienced personnel and events, without any trace of performance.

Zhu Gaoxu smelled a smell of various flower spices, and the makeup had already covered her original breath. It was like a plate of delicacies filled with too many seasonings, not pure, but still delicious.

He also sat down beside the bed and felt everything about this strange little girl.

Guo turned around to Zhu Gaoxu slightly, still lowering his head. Zhu Gaoxu reached out and took the heavy phoenix crown on her head, and a beautiful hair appeared on her head. The black hair on her hair matched the jade whiteness of her ears, full of youthful atmosphere; but although the big shirt she wore was luxurious, it looked old-fashioned and had a huge contrast. It was even more obvious when she took the phoenix crown, as if two different styles of things were forced to rub together.

When Zhu Gaoxu looked at her appearance, he couldn't help but think of another image in the Royal Garden of the Palace that day. He really felt that the person in front of him was a little girl who had not grown up yet.

Most people in the Ming Dynasty did not have precocious physical maturity, and they were junior high school girls at the age of fourteen, which was no different. However, for the sake of prosperity, people in the world are used to being 14 women, and it is best for men to get married in the fifteenth. Guo is not a precocious type, she is just a very young and tender girl.

Zhu Gaoxu put his hand in mid-air and had to feel a strong sense of guilt. He was worried that if she got pregnant, the 14-year-old girl would die? In ancient times, women were indeed taking risks when they were born, and the mortality rate was extremely high.

He was even more hesitant when he thought about this. Since it was a bridal chamber, it seemed imperfect to forget it, but seeing that she was a little thin and too immature, she couldn't bear it. After all, she was his own person.

He put his hand on Guo's shoulder first, and Guo actually fell on the bed. Her face turned red, her eyes were a little dull, and her teeth were biting her red lips as if she was waiting to be tortured...and she seemed to be afraid before the injection.

Zhu Gaoxu rubbed his forehead with his hands, feeling a little at a loss and had nowhere to start.

"I don't want to lose you." Zhu Gaoxu murmured in a low voice.

At this moment, Guo's voice trembled and said, "Prince, do you know how to do it? I know, I have learned it."

Zhu Gaoxu: “…”

She turned her head with a flashing look at Zhu Gaoxu's head scratching, and then embarrassedly flapped her wings with a mosquito, saying, "The book says, I'm going to wait for the prince to take off my clothes. The prince takes off my clothes first..."

Zhu Gaoxu took a look at the shoes on her feet, but first took off her shoes and then put her legs on the bed.

He loved this little girl very much, but he really didn't want to vent his desire on her. But on this wedding night, he must sleep with the bride, and do nothing when sleeping in the bridal chamber. It seems a little perfunctory, and Guo has already been there.

"I understand!" Zhu Gaoxu said suddenly.

Guo blushed, looked at him, and then lay there straight and said nothing.

He gently held Guo's jade hand, and Guo's body tightened again, looking ready to endure Zhu Gaoxu's doing whatever he wanted. Her hands were really beautiful, her skin was shiny, and she felt smooth and soft when she held it. Zhu Gaoxu couldn't help but close the fingers of the two and greedily pressed against her palm.

He picked up the tender puff and put it on his lips to kiss her, letting her fingertips feel her red lips...

Night has not yet arrived, but they can't wait for it to get dark.

...

Early the next morning, Guo did not get up, and he looked tired and was still sleeping in a daze. Zhu Gaoxu was in good spirits, and was extremely satisfied with his physical, mental and psychological conditions. He got up first, wore a leather suit, a large hairpin on his hat, and a crimson robe.

This dress was not out of order, because Hou Hai told him that he would go to visit the emperor and the empress today and to go to the Guo family tomorrow, so he would wear it. Zhu Gaoxu put it on first to avoid changing it.

After he got up, he summoned Wang Gui to see him and asked him to take the gift list. Yesterday, the people who came to the yard were welcomed by the marriage envoy and officials from the clan mansion. Zhu Gaoxu did not show up, so he had to complete the wedding ceremony. But whoever came before, he would know that it was read the gift list.

Wang Gui brought a thick stack of paper. Zhu Gaoxu looked through the names one by one, just to see who did not come. The heroes of "Jing Nian" seemed to have all come, as well as his two brothers, brother-in-law and brother-in-law, and some literary officials from Jianwen. The royal family members who were not in the capital, as well as Yao Guangxiao, Yuan Gong and other counselors from the Yan Palace did not come, but only brought gifts, and most civil officials did not even give gifts.

He really couldn't see what was recorded in it. Anyway, he was dazzled and only knew one result: he got rich.

Guo brought a very generous dowry. Although it was hers, the meat was rotten in the pot. The large amount of gifts received at the wedding banquet were also given a lot of money.

The prince’s salary is good, but he really can’t make money by relying on his salary. He usually relies mainly on the emperor’s rewards. Now he has received so much wealth at once.

Zhu Gaoxu felt that being a vassal king was actually very good. As long as he was allowed to be a vassal king safely, why bother him? In the early Ming Dynasty, the Zhu family still had at least two hundred years of experience, and he could be so happy that he died of old age.

At this moment, he noticed that the bottom page actually recorded many names and gave a gift together. The eunuchs in the palace actually gathered together to submit one.

Zhu Gaoxu smiled and immediately said to himself: Treat people with sincerity, and people must treat me with sincerity.

When he looked through the second time, he found the names of Ping'an, Sheng Yong and He Fu. He Fu, especially He Fu, came in person and gave it very generously, which was almost bloody. This guy happened to bump into Zhu Gaoxu in the battle of Lingbi. The two of them fought, and He Fu was defeated. Now, he actually ran to the palace to give him a big gift in person.
