The shadow of the carved window edge was cast on the wall by the sunlight, and Shen Yu finally struggled to wake up.
Looking back at the bed tent in confusion, I felt a little regretful. My body was as tired as if I had fought a battle, as if I had been run over countless times by a carriage.
Shen Yu gently pulled away the hand that was wrapped around her body, and prepared to roll over Xie Tingzhou and get up to wash herself.
Just when he was halfway up, Xie Tingzhou pulled him back by his arm, pressed him on top of him, and said quietly: "It's still early, let's sleep a little longer."
Xie Tingzhou was also very tired. As a result, he lay down just before dawn and slept for less than two hours.
In this life, Shen Yu had no education before getting married, but she still remembered the rules of her previous life.
The bride has to get up early to offer tea to her elders. She also has to get up to dress up. If she doesn't get up, it will be too late.
"I have to get up." Shen Yu struggled in his arms.
Xie Tingzhou persisted, "What are you doing up?"
"I want to get up and serve tea to my parents-in-law."
Xie Tingzhou said nothing, as if he was fast asleep again, but his arms were tightly wrapped.
Shen Yu struggled again, and Xie Tingzhou simply turned over and half-pressed her underneath, burying himself in her neck and talking.
"We don't have this rule. My dad might not even get up yet."
Shen Yu didn't sleep well to begin with, so she gave up completely and fell asleep again.
After a while, there was a lot of flapping sounds outside under the eaves, completely waking Xie Tingzhou up.
Seeing that Shen Yu was still sleeping, Xie Tingzhou stood up and pulled the quilt for her, put on her robe and opened the door.
"What's the noise about?"
Bai Yu was flapping his wings under the eaves, looking at him with a bad temper.
Xi Feng came early in the morning and did not dare to approach. He only dared to come forward when he saw Xie Tingzhou getting up.
Xie Tingzhou rubbed the back of his neck, his robe hanging loosely.
His eyes were half-opened, the redness on his neck had not faded, and his whole body showed a sense of relaxation and laziness after being satisfied.
Xifeng only glanced at it and didn't dare to look again. He lowered his eyes and said, "Maybe he's hungry."
Hai Dongqing is the king of falcons, and he still has a bit of wildness in him. After returning to Beilin, he was like a wild horse running wild. He flew out in the wild for a few days before returning.
When he came back, his claws and beak were still stained with blood and meat residue, and he didn't know where he had gone hunting.
Xie Tingzhou tied it with a chain and asked it to calm down.
I woke up late today and no one came to feed it, which made me unhappy.
"Go get some grouse."
Xie Tingzhou stepped forward, and Bai Yu immediately jumped on his arm. When Xie Tingzhou untied the anklet, he heard it make an unhappy cooing sound.
"Are you hungry? No one came to feed you? This is the first time I'm full."
After saying that, he laughed casually, turned his head and called out: "Come here."
The maid who was standing far away hurriedly came forward, not daring to look down and waiting for instructions with her head lowered.
Xie Tingzhou stroked Bai Yu's feathers with the back of his fingers to comfort him, and ordered: "Prepare something light for breakfast and clear porridge. The princess doesn't like thick porridge. Prepare side dishes for when she wakes up before cooking. Don't incense your clothes." She doesn’t like the clothes Rixun wore yesterday.”
After saying that, he raised his arm and made Bai Yu jump to the railing. He turned around and walked to the door. He thought of something and turned around half-way, his eyes swept across the maids.
The maids lowered their heads lower.
Xie Tingzhou said: "There is no need to keep so many people in the yard, just two. These maids are not familiar with her preferences. You send people to Luozhou to pick up the two girls who are serving her personally, as well as Dahuang. "
"Yes." Xifeng asked, "It's Luyao and Erya, right? What about Hongqiao?"
Xie Tingzhou was silent, "Forget it, wait until she wakes up and ask her."
Xi Feng retreated in response, and Xie Tingzhou returned to the room.
Then he saw Shen Yu lying on the pillow, her face turned sideways and her eyes half open.
"Still woke me up." Xie Tingzhou sat on the edge of the bed, drew his fingertips from her brow bone, stopped on her earlobe and twisted it lightly.
"Would you like to get up and eat?"
Shen Yu shook her head and muttered: "It hurts."
"Where does it hurt?" Xie Tingzhou asked funnyly.
Shen Yu moved her shoulders and said, "It hurts everywhere."
"Then I'll rub it for you." Xie Tingzhou rubbed the back of her neck, looking at her comfortable and satisfied expression, and then cast his eyes on her earlobes.
He remembered the expression on this place last night when he was holding her in his mouth, and his body began to feel hot again, and his hand slid down involuntarily.
"What are you doing?" Shen Yu was completely awake.
Xie Tingzhou pressed on her back before she turned over, put his lips to her ear and said in a hoarse voice, "I'll have breakfast."
Shen Yu was run over by a car again. She didn't eat the so-called breakfast until noon, and she couldn't open her eyes.
Xie Tingzhou said that he didn't need to ask for greetings, but he really didn't need to. The old prince himself was a casual person, and he was most bothered by the red tape, so that people would just send the gifts to the bride.
There were many people sitting in the palace's meeting hall, all of whom were aides and lower-level officials of the palace.
The wedding delayed a lot of things. The prince was newly married, and the people below did not dare to bother him with troubles. It took seven days before the discussion started. Many government affairs were waiting for Xie Tingzhou's decision.
After a busy morning, the staff and officials were all invited to have dinner in the side hall. Xie Tingzhou left the meeting hall and prepared to return to the courtyard to have dinner with Shen Yu.
Chang Liu sat at the door and picked out ants for a long time. When he saw Xie Tingzhou, he quickly stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, are you going back to find the princess?"
Xie Tingzhou glanced at him, indicating that he was asking questions knowingly.
Changliu said: "The princess asked me to tell you that we won't have lunch together. She went to the school grounds."
Xie Tingzhou stopped and asked, "Going to the school grounds? When?"
"I went early in the morning." Changliu said.
Xie Tingzhou nodded, "I understand."
After walking a few steps, he asked again: "Are you wearing a cloak?"
"No." Changliu was smarter this time, "Then I'll have someone prepare it and I'll send it to the princess."
Since Xiao Chuan and his soldiers came to Beilin from Shengjing, they have been training in the school field.
There are Qingyun Guards in the east, west, south, north and west campuses of the royal capital. They are arranged in the south campus where there are slightly fewer people.
Xiao Chuan was ordered to recruit troops again these days, with more than 10,000 new recruits, and the South Campus was now overcrowded.
Xiao Chuan couldn't bring himself to discuss the expansion of the school grounds with Xie Tingzhou, so he could only invite Shen Yu to discuss it.
"These new recruits are so fucking hard to control." Xiao Chuan squatted on the ground, chewing a white-faced steamed bun, "The people in the north have really different physiques from those in the south. I don't know what they ate to grow up. Yes, all of them are big-hearted and wild-tempered."
