Chapter 193 The first marriage consummation
The three-day deadline passed in a flash, and Baili Zhao arrived as promised and came to greet Jiang Nianwei in person.
"I remember that half a year ago, I made an appointment with you to go to the hot spring villa, but we were unable to do so due to many trivial matters. Now, in this rare leisure time, I can fulfill my old wish and take you to explore that quiet place. What's more, it has been snowing heavily in recent days, and the villa is covered in silver. The beauty of the snowy scene is really rare, and it will surely open your eyes." His words were filled with joy that was difficult to conceal.
Compared to those tedious government affairs, only when he is with Jiang Nianwei can Baili Zhao let down his guard and return to his true self.
In the court, he had to put on a disguise of indifference and deal with those officials.
"Okay, I'm looking forward to it too."
It took a whole day to reach the villa. As the carriage swayed gently, Jiang Nianwei gradually felt sleepy. Her eyes involuntarily drooped, and she finally leaned lightly on Baili Zhao's strong shoulders.
Seeing this, Taozhi whispered beside her, "The young lady hasn't slept peacefully like this for a long time. She is always busy day and night, going to bed late and getting up early."
"What has your young lady been busy with these days? Why is she so busy?" Baili Zhao asked with concern.
"The young lady didn't tell me. She is always mysterious." Taozhi scratched her hair.
"She is indeed very mysterious, hiding many secrets that we don't know."
But leaning so quietly on his shoulder made her look so well-behaved.
"Your Majesty... No, sir, please let me support the young lady." Taozhi wanted to step forward to help, but was stopped by Baili Zhao who gently waved his hand.
"It's okay, I'm not tired, just let her lean on me." He looked at her with unusual tenderness.
Taozhi felt that she shouldn't be here and that she was too redundant. She found an excuse to get off the carriage and sat in the cargo carriage at the back.
Baili Zhao stared at Jiang Nianwei and brushed away the fine hair on her forehead.
Although half of his body was slightly numb from the long period of stalemate, he still didn't want to change his posture.
It was not until the evening that they arrived at the hot spring villa. He had to wake her up, "Sanniang, Sanniang..."
The way she spoke softly was nothing like her usual cold and stern appearance.
Jiang Nianwei slowly opened her eyes and realized that she had slept for a long time. She leaned against Baili Zhao's side, feeling extremely safe.
"We're finally here." She murmured softly, then stretched lazily, her posture revealing a sense of laziness and satisfaction.
Baili Zhao helped her down, and what came into view was an exquisite villa, and not far away were rolling mountains covered with snow.
"This is a natural hot spring that has a healing effect on the body. It's a good place to relax."
On this trip, they traveled light. Jiang Nianwei only brought peach branches, and Baili Zhao only brought a few guards hidden in the dark and a loyal attendant.
The two of them were like a pair of newlyweds, away from the hustle and bustle, leisurely and contented, enjoying the rare quiet time.
“It’s been a long time since I’ve seen such a breathtaking view.”
Jiang Nianwei grabbed the snow on the ground, rolled it into a ball, and threw it towards Baili Zhao's position.
Baili Zhao pretended to be calm, not moving an inch, letting the snowball hit his black fox fur coat. "Sanniang, don't forget, I hold a grudge."
"Then just remember that I'll be waiting for you!"
The villa is usually taken care of, and when someone comes in, a housekeeper will come to greet them.
Baili Zhao waved his hand, with a casual tone: "No need to be polite, we are just here to have some fun today, you guys should leave and let us be at ease."
"Yes, we will withdraw." The butler withdrew respectfully.
Baili Zhao introduced it with great interest, "Just walk a little further and you will find a hot spring. Do you want to go check it out?"
Sure enough, the natural hot spring is as good as its reputation, and you can even smell a faint smell of sulfur.
The hot springs are hidden among the lush forests. Looking up, you can see the snow-capped mountain tops, which form a sharp contrast with the warmth of the hot springs. It has a unique winter charm that is refreshing.
The chilly wind blew across her cheeks, and Jiang Nianwei gathered her cloak and said, "It's really beautiful."
"Then let's get started without further delay..."
Just as he was about to take off his outer robe, Jiang Nianwei stepped back several steps, "Are you so bold that you want to take off all your clothes and soak in the hot spring?"
"Otherwise, are we going to take a bath with our clothes on?"
Jiang Nianwei fumbled out a swimsuit and a pair of men's swimming trunks from the package she brought.
Baili Zhao looked at the strange-looking clothes and asked curiously, "Is this a drawstring? Why is it so short?"
"These are swimming trunks made of breathable and dry fabric. You can wear them to take a hot spring bath."
Baili Zhao looked at the women's swimsuit again, "What is this?"
It was a thin layer, but more bold than a bellyband. Baili Zhao couldn't help but feel his cheeks getting hot when he thought of how it would look like on Jiang Nianwei.
"Would you like to wear this and join me in the hot springs, Sanniang?"
"Business."
Baili Zhao stood there silently, feeling a certain part of his body beginning to stir.
"No, I can't think like that!" He kept repeating to himself, but the image of fair skin always appeared in his mind unconsciously.
Who could have thought that such a great emperor would actually... actually be a virgin who had never touched a woman? Even he himself felt like laughing at himself.
But he respected Sanniang and would never go against her wishes unless she was willing.
But the body reacts before the brain.
"I'll go change my clothes first, Zhao, you should change too."
Baili Zhao stood there awkwardly with his swimming trunks in his hand, thinking about what was about to happen, and felt increasingly hot all over.
Just as he was immersed in his inner struggle and hesitation, Jiang Nianwei had already walked out of the locker room lightly. She was wearing a form-fitting swimsuit that outlined her graceful curves, and a soft thick towel casually draped over her outer layer, adding a bit of laziness.
She walked lightly, and every step seemed to step on Baili Zhao's heartstrings. Inadvertently, the skin of her calves was faintly visible under the towel, as warm and white as jade.
She tied her hair up, with a few strands of hair gently falling beside her ears. She walked to the edge of the hot spring pool, put the towel aside, and looked at Baili Zhao who was still in a daze with a smile in her eyes:
"A Zhao, why are you still standing there? Let's go to the hot spring."
Jiang Nianwei walked to the hot spring pool and put down the towel.
Baili Zhao felt like he was about to burst into flames, so he immediately went to another room and hid himself.
Jiang Nianwei looked at his hurried appearance and couldn't help but chuckled: "A Zhao, what are you dithering about? This hot spring is really comfortable. Why don't you come over?"
Baili Zhao took a deep breath, changed into his swimming trunks, and walked out with his upper body naked.
He stepped stiffly into the hot spring, submerging himself in the water, leaving only his black hair floating gently, not daring to look directly into Jiang Nianwei's eyes.
"Ouch," Jiang Nianwei suddenly cried out softly, her body swaying slightly, as if she was about to slip into the water, and Baili Zhao immediately caught her.
"Are you OK?"
Baili Zhao only felt his hands touching her soft body, which looked so slender.
"I'm fine, but you, A Zhao, why are you acting like a shy little girl?" Jiang Nianwei asked in a joking tone.
Ouch," Jiang Nianwei suddenly cried out softly, her body swayed slightly, as if she was about to slide into the water.
"I... am not..." Baili Zhao's words were choked for a moment, his eyes drooped, but he inadvertently caught the scenery that should not be easily peeped at. His throat couldn't help but slide, and an inexplicable dizziness quietly hit his heart.
"You were the one who invited me to the hot springs for a treatment. I thought you really liked hot springs."
Jiang Nianwei continued to speak, with a hint of playfulness in her tone, as if she was deliberately teasing the usually calm and self-possessed man in front of her.
"Actually... what's important is not taking a hot spring bath, but... who you're with." Baili Zhao felt as if there was a faint thunder in his chest, shaking constantly.
When he raised his eyes again, what caught his eye was Jiang Nianwei's eyes, shining like stars, staring straight at him.
She gently raised her face and let her fingertips slide gently over the scars on his body. Every time she touched a scar, it seemed as if a warm current flowed beneath his skin, hot and subtle.
"Although the wound has healed, the scar has become a permanent mark." Jiang Nianwei said in a low voice, with a barely perceptible tremor in her voice.
"It doesn't matter. How can a man not have a few scars on his body? These are common when a soldier is fighting in a war."
His expression became more and more unnatural, and his body's reaction became more and more intense.
In the hazy mist, Jiang Nianwei's skin seemed to be caressed by moonlight, revealing a faint, looming white luster. With her gentle movements, this radiance swayed before his eyes.
Baili Zhao felt that this was not enjoyment at all, it was clearly just torturing himself.
However, just as he was about to pull away, a soft but firm hand gently placed on his wrist, "A Zhao, don't go, stay and accompany me, okay?"
Her arms were already around his neck, and she moved forward actively.
Baili Zhao's eyes were fixed on the soft lips in front of him, and the desire in his heart surged like a tide. Finally, he could no longer restrain himself, and slowly leaned over and gently pressed the kiss that he had imagined countless times in his dreams. This was a moment that he had been dreaming about, warm and lingering.
The figures of the two people were entangled and blended in the water vapor.
Jiang Nianwei hung on his strong arms, floating up and down.
Baili Zhao's kiss was delicate and pious, and every touch seemed to be cherishing the most priceless treasure in the world.
"Sanniang," he whispered in her ear, his voice full of affection and longing, "I am willing to spend my life with you, forever... forever."
Ah Zhao's whispers rang in her ears, and Jiang Nianwei couldn't help but hug him back tightly.
"A Zhao, my waist is weak, can you... can you rest for a while?" Half an hour later, Jiang Nianwei had already begun begging for mercy.
"You were the one who provoked me. If you want to stop, it's not up to you."
The sound of water and sobbing echoed in the room...
"A-choo." Jiang Nianwei wrapped the quilt tightly, feeling dizzy all over. She knew that she must have caught a cold because she stayed in the hot spring for too long.
Taozhi hurriedly brought ginger soup, "Miss, what should we do? We came out to have fun, but ended up getting sick."
"It's just some minor ailments, they will be healed soon."
She had already taken the pills from the space and swallowed them. She would be well soon, but for some reason she hadn't seen Ah Zhao.
"Where did he go?"
"Are you talking about my uncle? There is no medicine for the cold in the villa. My uncle rode as fast as he could to the nearest town to buy medicine."
"Just tell the servants to do it. Why should he go there in person?"
"My son-in-law said he was worried and wanted to buy and boil the medicine himself."
Jiang Nianwei had just finished drinking the ginger soup when Baili Zhao rushed back. He not only bought Chinese medicine, but also bought a lot of other food.
As soon as he entered the room, he felt a chill on his body. He did not go to the bedside, but just shouted at the door: "Sanniang, if you are hungry, eat some cakes. I have ordered people to stew minced meat porridge. It will be ready soon. The medicine is also being boiled."
"A Zhao, come closer."
Baili Zhao walked closer and found that her face was red. He touched Jiang Nianwei's head and it was hot.
"It wasn't that hot just now, but it seems to have gotten worse." Baili Zhao was extremely anxious.
"Taozhi, go check out the medicine jar first. I'll stay here with you."
"Slave, go now."
After Taozhi left, Jiang Nianwei threw herself into his arms.
"It's so comfortable in your arms."
The heat from my body met the coldness from his body, slightly dispelling the discomfort of the high fever.
Baili Zhao felt guilty and whispered, "It's all my fault. I failed to restrain myself and caused you to suffer so much. I feel really bad."
Jiang Nianwei gently swayed her body, leaned against his ear, and whispered softly: "How can I blame you for this rare time together? But in the future, I hope you can pity my weakness and stop torturing me like this. My body can't withstand the torment of your strong body."
Hearing this, Baili Zhao's ears instantly turned red, "I... I will definitely keep this in mind and exercise some restraint."
It was their first time, and it went well, but Jiang Nianwei not only had a high fever, but also felt extremely sore all over.
Baili Zhao still had a question in his mind, "But, Sanniang, you've obviously been married before, why... why is this your first time?"
Jiang Nianwei only felt her cheeks getting hotter. "I didn't consummate my marriage with that scumbag at the beginning, and he went out to fight. When he came back, he had a beautiful concubine by his side. How could he care about me?"
"No matter what, Sanniang is someone I cherish." He held her tightly in his arms with his broad body, as if he wanted to embed her into his body.
After the Chinese medicine was ready, Baili Zhao prepared to feed her the medicine. Jiang Nianwei was actually much better, but she frowned when she smelled the Chinese medicine.
For the first time, she acted like a spoiled brat: "A Zhao, I don't want to drink, can I not drink?"
