The Regent and His Wife Couldn't Possibly be so Loving.

Chapter 1

The flowers are bright and the willows are graceful, the spring scenery is alluring.

The back garden of the Princess's Mansion.

Mingyi leaned back on a rosewood recliner covered with gold brocade. Having drunk a few cups of peach wine, she felt tipsy and a faint blush appeared on her rosy face.

The spring breeze blew across her extremely beautiful face, causing her long eyelashes to tremble. Under the warm yellow sunlight, the red-gold hairpins swaying slightly in her hair cast mottled spots of light on the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, making her look more charming and more beautiful than flowers.

The maid Yuli brought some green plums to help Mingyi sober up. She placed the plums on the small table in front of Mingyi and glanced at her secretly.

A few days ago, news came that the war in the northwest had stopped and the Regent was about to return.

Normally it was a happy event that her husband, who had been away from Beijing for three years, had returned, but the eldest princess did not look happy at all.

No wonder the eldest princess was unhappy.

If you ask which couple in the circle of powerful people in the capital is the most loving, some say it is Princess Yunyang and Erlang of the Pei family, while others say it is the Marquis Pingning and his wife. There are many different opinions but no definitive conclusion.

But if you ask which couple is the least compatible, it is undoubtedly the eldest princess and the regent.

It’s not surprising that others think this way. The truth is that the words “unmatched” are written all over these two people from head to toe.

Regent Xie Shu comes from a family of noble character with a history of hundreds of years. He is a gentleman of great elegance, and his words and deeds are role models for the clan. He is like an immortal who has been banished from the mortal world.

The Xie family was very strict in managing their household, and was known for avoiding extravagance, anxiety, and keeping a clean heart and few desires. There were no less than a thousand rules and regulations engraved on the door of the ancestral hall alone.

The eldest princess's face alone was three times more beautiful than that of her mother, the queen who was called "the source of disaster". No matter how simply she dressed, she had nothing to do with "purity of mind and few desires".

Moreover, as the only daughter of the previous emperor, she was born a pampered beauty, and had been enjoying a life of luxury since childhood. Her whole body exuded the extravagance that the regent could not tolerate the most.

Once a piece of clothing is worn in public, it will never be worn again. The jewelry and head ornaments are also different every day.

She is so picky that she has to change into new clothes every four hours, because she thinks the clothes will accumulate dust after being worn for a long time. She lives a life of luxury, so she is afraid of drinking cold water and going out in the sun.

The Xie family's ancestral motto is "hard work and diligence", but the eldest princess has not followed a single word of that.

However, these two people who seemed to have nothing in common got married three years ago.

The fate of the two began with a glass of wine mixed with "Spring Night".

Once you are addicted to something like "Spring Night", you must balance yin and yang to get relief.

Before entering the Princess's Mansion, Yuli worked in the Duke Ling's Mansion. She learned about this by chance when she heard the ladies and young ladies in the Duke Ling's Mansion discussing it in private with blushing faces.
