I woke up as the Villainous Empress-Chapter 126
126 Royal Wedding X
After the wedding banquet, Yang Luoyang and Chang Ah were bidding goodbye to Yang Ning and preparing to return to the Yang Household.
Unlike the other brides, Yang Ning didn’t shed a tear while seeing her parents off. She was rather elated to see them leaving her here and was glad that she doesn’t need to see them daily and ruin her mood every day.
After the way Yang Luoyang threatened her in the morning, she was feeling even more disgusted to face them.
However, she felt strange to see her so-called little brother, Yang Jian leaving along with Yang Luoyang and Chang Ah. Because even though he is annoying, he isn’t a corrupted kid like his parents.
It was his parent’s fault that he has a shitty personality. Otherwise, he looked like a nice kid.
When he was leaving with Xing Bao earlier than others because he needed to go to bed early, she noticed his teary eyes and the way he was looking at her with his longing eyes.
They never had a proper conversation and other than arguing over the chamber, they never got to talk to each other.
Then why was he getting so emotional leaving her here at the royal palace? Shouldn’t he be glad that he will get to use his old chamber from now on?
This was only making her feel bad for arguing with him over a chamber.

While bidding goodbye to each other, Yang Luoyang didn’t fake his tears and kept his expressions stoic throughout their formal goodbye.
However, Chang Ah had another plan.
She was bawling her eyes out as if Yang Ning was dying. Well, even if she died, Chang Ah will never cry, instead, she will laugh out loud and will celebrate her demise with a drink.
Yang Ning couldn’t help but scoff to see Chang Ah hugging her and crying her eyes out. Her nose turned pink and she was even sobbing while hugging her and crying without any intention of stopping soon.
How can she cry so much? This woman seriously deserves an acting award.
Her talent is being wasted here. She should have been in her world and she will bag so many awards for her splendid acting.
Zheng Liang was standing next to Yang Ning and noticed her cold, indifferent expression while looking at Chang Ah and Yang Luoyang.
Her thoughts were clearly written on her face.
Seeing her like this, he was relieved that they finally got married and he didn’t decide to request his majesty to think again about their alliance.
At least he wouldn’t be as worried about her as before because now she will not need to return to a house where nobody cares about her and will rather let her die than call a physician for her when she is sick.
She doesn’t need to feel bad about leaving her family behind. Because he will be staying by her side and will take care of her.
They have become husband and wife after all.

After the wedding banquet which came to an end with a splendid folk music performance and Yang Ning bid goodbye to her family, it was time for everyone to return to their chambers and take a rest to start a new day tomorrow.
Along with the wedding banquet, the wedding ceremonies of Day 1 also came to an end.
The wedding ceremony might have ended, but there are still many formalities and rituals that need to be performed in the following days.
However, before that, there is one more long-awaited ritual that needs to be performed before this night comes to an end.
It was the first night of the bride and groom.
All the court ladies were looking forward to their first night and prepared the chamber of Zheng Liang with flowers, satin-silk curtains, and colorful lanterns and the earthen lamps.
They spread the rose petals all over the white bedsheet to create a romantic atmosphere in the chamber.
Their Crown Prince has finally gotten married. They should work hard to make their first night together more special.
“Greetings to her Highness!” The maids were standing outside Zheng Liang’s chamber in a line and shouted simultaneously to greet Yang Ning with passion.
“Oh!” Yang Ning exclaimed in amazement as she wasn’t expecting this kind of welcome from them.
She was startled by their passionate greeting but smiled at them awkwardly before going inside the chamber with Xiaowei.
She was too tired to sit and chat with them.
As soon as she stepped inside the chamber, she nudged Xiaowei to close the door behind her.
When she removed her veil, she was surprised by the decorations in the room.
The flowers were arranged in every corner of the room. There was a sweet floral scent in the room that was making her nose itchy.
She could even smell the scented incense and blinked her eyes in confusion.
Why does the whole setup seem so suspicious? It looks like a honeymoon room for a couple. But what does it have to do with her? She wondered.
“Xiaowei, Isn’t this His Highness’s chamber? Why did you bring me here?” Yang Ning looked around the chamber with a frown and asked her.
Xiaowei blinked at her strange question as she couldn’t understand what she meant by this question. If not here, where would she take her?
“Erm...Milady, you are married to His Highness and will be getting the title of the Crown Princess of the Zheng Empire after the crowning ceremony. Where else would you stay if not His Highness’s chamber?” She asked in confusion.
“You and His Highness are husband and wife now. You will have to share a room with him from now on.” Xiaowei voiced out and looked away in embarrassment.
While Xiaowei was shying away, Yang Ning pursed her lips and looked at Xiaowei with puzzled expression.
“Xiaowei, you’re joking with me, right? How can that be possible? Yang Ning never lived in the same chamber as Zheng Liang!” Yang Ning shouted in shock when things seemed to be going in different directions.
In the novel, Zheng Liang and Yang Ning always lived separately and they never even shared a room together, forgetting about the bed.
Zheng Liang stayed in his chamber, meanwhile, Yang Ning has been using another small room in the dragon pavilion since the start.
That’s why she was so chill about the whole wedding thing. If they were to stay in separate chambers, she could do her own things and would figure out how to stop her fate from going downhill.
However, now she has to share a chamber with him. How can she share a room with a man? She has never been in a relationship with anyone, how can she live with a man who doesn’t even consider her as his wife?
Wasn’t it just a political marriage? She wondered, feeling skeptical about this whole wedding thing.
Did she jump into a deep well with her willingness?

Yang Ning was panicking and walking back and forth in the spacious chamber. She cannot help but worry about what she is going to do when Zheng Liang appears in front of her.
How is she going to face him? They have been married. Does that mean that they will have to perform the duties of husband and wife as well?
How can she lose her virginity to a novel character? How??
Seeing Yang Ning getting anxious, Xiaowei gave her a glass of water and said, ” Milady, you do not need to be worried about anything.”
” I am sure His Highness will treat you with love and care. You just need to leave everything in his care.” f𝙧𝒆𝚎𝑤e𝚋𝓷o𝘷𝗲l.c𝐨m
After staying with changed Yang Ning for a while, she has gotten used to her speaking to herself habit and there are times when she speaks such words that goes over her head.
However, she has realized that it’s better to stay out and not do anything while she speaks in a strange language.
While Xiaowei was smiling formally at her, Yang Ning looked at calm Xiaowei with a stoic expression and asked, ” Xiaowei, have you ever shared a room with a man before?”
Xioawei was horrified at her straightforward embarrassing question, ” Milady!” She shouted in disbelief and asked, ” How can you ask me something like that? Why would I spend a night with a man?”
“I haven’t even gotten married yet. How...can I spend a night with a man?” She asked while looking at her with a frightened gaze. 𝑓re𝘦𝔀𝗲𝘣𝘯𝘰νℯ𝒍.c𝗼ｍ
Yang Ning has become quite bold. How can she ask her such a question directly?
Yang Ning smiled at her and said, ” Exactly. Then how can you say what His Highness is going to do? I never thought that you have such a dirty mind. You’re kind of forward despite being so naive, Xiaowei.” She chuckled and teased her a little more until Xiaowei’s face turned cherry tomato red in shame and embarrassment.
“Milady, how can you tease me like that?” Xiaowei grumbles when she realizes that Yang Ning was teasing her.
Yang Ning laughed at her reaction but inwardly, her heart was beating fast as she couldn’t believe that she would share a room with a man.
She has never been in a serious relationship before and never kissed anyone. How can she share a room with a man and act as if nothing has changed in her life?
