Chapter 1090: Chapter 1092: Bridal Chamber Flower Candle Night (5)

Cai Wei didn’t think so. In her eyes, servants and freemen were alike, sentient beings with emotions and thoughts. She couldn’t bear the thought of being intimate with a man while being waited upon by palace maids and eunuchs nearby. Tonight was their wedding night, and he would no doubt have to take it easy on her. Therefore, she had to warn him in advance.

"Let them all withdraw. Don’t let them come in to serve, or else you’re not allowed to touch me!"

Her voice was low, audible only to him, cheeks flushed and eyes watery but filled with an unyielding warning.

Nangong Yi teased, "So, if they leave, can I touch you then?"

After speaking, he waved his hand and commanded Yang Yong, "Everyone withdraw for now, you can come back in to serve when called."

"Yes!"

Yang Yong led the palace maids and the eunuchs out, heads bowed, quickly leaving only Nangong Yi and Cai Wei in the bridal chamber.

"Madam, can your husband touch you now?"

Nangong Yi’s hands landed on her body. "Hmm, not bad, it’s grown!"

Cai Wei quickly pulled those wicked claws away, speaking earnestly, "Nangong Yi, can we negotiate something?"

"Negotiate what?"

His hands were pulled away, but he didn’t impose further, slowly walking towards the table.

"Look, I’m only fourteen years old this year, and have not yet come of age. If we consummate our marriage this early, it might harm my body, so I think..."

"I’ve already asked Court Judge Yao about this matter."

The man walked to the table, picked up the wine pot, poured two cups of wine, and handed them to Cai Wei. "You are fourteen years old, as mature as Tian Kui, it won’t harm your body. If it did, I wouldn’t bear to see it..."

"Ah? Really?"

Cai Wei asked blankly. In her subconscious, fourteen was still a child, and yet this man was insistent on consummating their marriage, which was utterly despicable. If this were her time, such a man would be arrested and sentenced to life imprisonment.

"Naturally it’s true. Here, Madam, let’s drink the cross-cupped wine first!"

Cai Wei solemnly took the delicate wine cup and circled his arm.

Drinking cross-cupped wine was an essential ceremony during ancient wedding rites. On the wedding night, drinking this wine symbolized uniting as one, to love and cherish each other, sharing weal and woe. This ceremony was significant, and Cai Wei would certainly not refuse it. After finishing the wine, Nangong Yi, in high spirits, collected the wine cups and placed them back on the table.

"Madam, your husband will bathe now. Please, be patient for a while, and I will come back to ’cherish you’..."

The last two words he spoke were extremely suggestive. Cai Wei clearly understood his implications. Her heart thumped violently for a moment before she could calm down.

Now that she had married him, she might as well accept it, though it felt premature. Didn’t children at the age of twelve or thirteen start doing this overseas?

Having come to terms with it, she felt more at ease. While he was away, she took the opportunity to call Chun Liu to help wring her hair dry.

Chun Liu was an elder from Qingyun Town whom Cai Wei had brought with her to the Capital. She had always been deeply loyal to Cai Wei. With no one else in the sleeping hall, she whispered, "Madam, The Emperor has gone to bathe. Shouldn’t you go in to serve? I just saw Chun Qiao and Chun Jiao, those two girls, follow The Emperor in. From what I observed, those two damn maids seem troublesome, you must be careful."

Cai Wei, of course, saw that Chun Qiao and Chun Jiao were troublemakers, not just them, but no palace maid in the entire Chengqian Palace was reliable.
