Chapter 239 Dugu Tianxia 6
At court, Yuwen Jue entrusted a young man from the Li family with an important task, and Yuwen Hu raised no objections. Prajna was displeased that Yuwen Hu hadn't contacted her recently, but her pride wouldn't allow her to yield. To fulfill the prophecy of Dugu Tianxia, she resolutely decided to marry Yuwen Yu.
After dinner, Mantuo received a delivery of pastries from Yuwen Hu. She handed the letter to the person who sent it, and asked him to pass it on to Yuwen Hu. When Yuwen Hu received the letter, he unfolded it. It clearly read: "Meet at the mansion tonight at midnight!" Yuwen Hu smiled and ordered his servants to prepare food...
Meanwhile, Yuwen Yong returned home after dinner. After washing up, he was about to go to bed, but was stopped by Mantuo: "Didn't you say that we should sleep in separate rooms from now on?"
Yuwen Yong said with a puzzled look on his face, "When did I ever say that we should sleep in separate rooms? Besides, you are my princess, how can we sleep in separate rooms?" Mantuo rolled her eyes and replied with a hint of sarcasm, "I thought you were going to keep your virginity for my third sister!"
Yuwen Yong's expression turned serious, and he explained earnestly, "There is no special relationship between Jialuo and me. There never was, and there never will be. Now that I've married you, I will naturally be responsible for you to the end. Okay, stop dawdling and get washed up!"
Mantuo was stunned for a moment after hearing this, but decided to go wash up first and make plans later. When she came back after washing up, she ordered the servants to light the calming incense. Then she climbed onto the bed, and just as Yuwen Yong hugged her, she suddenly fainted. Seeing that Yuwen Yong had no reaction, Mantuo dripped another drop of psychedelic powder into the incense burner. This psychedelic powder can amplify people's thoughts. After a while, Yuwen Yong on the bed began to moan and twist his body constantly. In order to avoid being discovered, Mantuo decisively cut her finger and dripped blood on the bed sheet. Then, she sat beside the table as if nothing had happened, quietly waiting for Yuwen Hu to arrive.
When Yuwen Hu heard unusual noises coming from inside the house and rushed into the room angrily, he was surprised to find Mantuo calmly drinking tea, and only Yuwen Yong was lying on the bed. Yuwen Hu excitedly hugged Mantuo and praised her, "Baby, you are so smart. You can actually come up with such a trick to deal with him!"
Mantuo leaned against Yuwen Hu's arms and whispered, "An idea suddenly occurred to me during the day. If we can get Yuwen Jue to pass the throne to Yuwen Yong, wouldn't we be able to achieve our goal without having to sacrifice a single soldier?"
Yuwen Hu hugged Mantuo tightly and said with a smile: "Even so, Yuwen Yong will never hand over the throne to you!"
Mantuo chuckled and continued, "No, as long as he is willing to give the throne to our son! But even if this aphrodisiac incense can make him hallucinate, the marks on my body cannot be faked!" After hearing this, Yuwen Hu showed a sly smile, picked up Mantuo and walked towards the next room. Then, the bed in the next room made a series of noises, which continued until dawn. When everything was over, Mantuo was so tired that she could hardly lift a finger. Yuwen Hu carefully cleaned her body, changed her into clean clothes, carried her back to the couch in the room, kissed her gently, and then turned and left. Mantuo watched him leave silently, then slowly took off her clothes, lay back down next to Yuwen Yong, closed her eyes and fell asleep peacefully.
As the sun slowly rose, sunlight shone into the room through the window. Yuwen Yong finally woke up from his sleep, turned his head to look at the woman who was still sleeping beside him, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously raised, revealing a doting smile. Looking at the traces of love left on her fair skin, a sense of satisfaction surged in his heart. He kissed her gently, then carefully got up and dressed, ready to go to court. After Yuwen Yong left, Mantuo slowly opened her eyes, with a glint of cunning in her eyes. She softly called the maids and told them to change the quilt on the bed, then lay back on the comfortable bed, closed her eyes and continued to rest. The atmosphere in the court was solemn and dignified. Yuwen Jue sat on the dragon throne and announced expressionlessly that Yuwen Yu and Prajna would get married on the first day of next month. This news was like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, instantly causing a commotion in the court. The ministers congratulated Dugu Xin one after another, congratulating him on his good fortune that both his daughters could marry into the royal family and become noble princesses. Dugu Xin smiled and politely responded to everyone's congratulations, but he felt a different feeling in his heart.
Meanwhile, Jialuo, still unable to reconcile with Yuwen Yong's marriage, remained depressed and languid, seemingly losing her former radiance and becoming dejected and lonely. Meanwhile, Dugu Xin meticulously planned a marriage alliance to forge an alliance with the Yang family. He had already made up his mind: to betroth Jialuo to Yang Jian.
When Yuwen Yong heard the news, his expression remained calm. After a moment's reflection, he decided to go for a walk and buy some unique food to bring back for his wife. Last night, the maid said his wife hadn't eaten much for dinner, and since he'd been so busy the previous night, he wondered if she'd gotten up yet.
When he returned to the mansion, Yuwen Yong heard the servant say that Mantuo was still asleep, so he quickly handed the cakes in his hand to the servant and hurried back to the bedroom to check. When he entered the room, he found Mantuo sitting there with a confused look on her face. Yuwen Yong's heart tightened instantly. He quickly walked to the bedside and whispered, "Mantuo, you finally woke up."
Mantuo heard the voice and slowly turned her head, her eyes revealing a hint of confusion and fatigue. She looked at Yuwen Yong, forced a smile, and whispered, "Husband, you're back." Yuwen Yong touched Mantuo's cheek with heartache and said softly, "How do you feel? Are you feeling any discomfort?" Mantuo shook her head and whispered, "I'm fine, just a little tired." Yuwen Yong quickly stood up, poured a glass of warm water and handed it to Mantuo, saying with concern, "Drink some water to moisten your throat." Mantuo took the glass and drank it in small sips, while Yuwen Yong sat quietly beside her, watching her every move.
After a while, Yuwen Yong remembered the cakes he had brought and hurriedly got up to get them. He carefully opened the cake box, took out a delicate cake, and handed it to Mantuo, saying gently, "This is a fresh cake I bought from the street. Try it and see if you like it." Mantuo looked at the cake in front of her, her eyes flashing with joy. She took a gentle bite, savoring the sweetness, and a satisfied smile gradually appeared on her face. Yuwen Yong was also very pleased to see this.
Yuwen Yong then gently asked Mantuo if she needed a change of clothes. Mantuo smiled and nodded. Yuwen Yong quickly called in someone to change Mantuo's clothes. Throughout the process, he always took good care of Mantuo without any slackness. When everything was ready, Mantuo said to Yuwen Yong gratefully, "Thank you, my husband." Yuwen Yong smiled slightly and replied, "You're welcome. As long as you are happy, that's all."
At this moment, Yuwen Yong's eyes accidentally fell on the red mark on Mantuo's neck. His face flushed slightly, and a feeling of guilt surged in his heart. He gently stroked Mantuo's neck and asked softly, "I'm sorry, did I hurt you last night? Do you want me to help you apply some medicine?" Mantuo felt embarrassed when she felt Yuwen Yong's concern. She shook her head gently and said with a smile, "No, my husband." Thinking about what happened last night, Yuwen Yong felt that it would be nice to have her in the future!
