Becoming The Real Rich Daughter After Divorce

Chapter 169 Jinniang Cuckolded the Crown Prince at the Duke Mansion

Aunt Qingmo said, “Yeah, according to the rules, normally there isn’t a title conferring ceremony for a crown princess.

“It is because His Royal Highness loves you very much that he asked from His Majesty for

Highness, you don’t know how many girls envy you!”

Qiao Jinniang: “…”

It turned out that she had to learn the rules so hard just because Lu Chen “loved” her?

After the title conferring ceremony, Qiao Jinniang finally got some leisure time.

Firstly, she had learned the rules, and secondly, the wedding was coming up soon, so she wasn’t allowed to deal with the restaurant business. Therefore, she was quite idle.

It finally warmed up in early March.

The dead trees in the courtyard sprouted.

Her maids told her that Chang’an had been very lively recently, and Qiao Jinniang wanted to go out to have a look, but she couldn’t.

The Duke Mansion was also very lively because many relatives of the Duke in the Southwest came.

Qiao Ruoyin, a cousin Qiao Jinniang had never met, was not able to come because she was about to give birth, but her parents-in-law and husband came.

And the Duke’s third brother, Third Master, also returned with his concubines.

Duke Anyuan’s cousins and their families also came from the Southwest, and they all came to greet Qiao Jinniang outside her courtyard.

Although Qiao Ruoyin didn’t come back, her first son did, which made Old Madam Qiao happy.

The Duke’s second brother had no son, so he was very happy too to see his grandson.

But Second Madam was very upset and mentioned her adoption plan again.

“Mother, Jinniang is going to be married, and then we will have to open the ancestral hall and record this matter on the genealogy.

“Why not take advantage of this opportunity to let us adopt a son of Third Brother?” Old Madam Qiao glared at Second Madam and said, “Don’t even think of making use of Jinniang’s wedding. No one can mess with her wedding!”

Second Madam pursed her lips in disappointment and could only say, “Okay.”

The Crown Prince’s wedding was approaching, and all the neighboring countries came to celebrate it. As the Crown Prince, Lu Chen was very busy.

However, he still came to Qiao Jinniang’s boudoir in the Duke Mansion over the window every now and then.

But today, Qiao Jinniang simply put a nail board in front of her window.

When Lu Chen saw the nail board, he hurriedly retracted his feet, looked at Qiao Jinniang and asked, “What is this?”

Qiao Jinniang said, “Your Royal Highness, the wedding is approaching. We better not meet secretly.”

Lu Chen frowned. “Why?”

Qiao Jinniang snorted. “Why? I only learned yesterday that a crown princess actually doesn’t need a title conferring ceremony. It was a “gift” you got for me!”

Lu Chen said with a smile, “You don’t want it?”

Qiao Jinniang looked at Lu Chen. “Of course not!”

Lu Chen leaped over the nail board and landed in front of Qiao Jinniang, saying,

“The wedding will be tiring anyway. With a title conferring ceremony, those idiots will not dare to impeach you for being too jealous and ask for the abolition of the crown princess.”

Qiao Jinniang said, “Why would they do that?”

Lu Chen said, “It’s hard to guarantee those old fogeys won’t do that, but if you have a title conferring ceremony, it’ll be harder for them to do that.”

Lu Chen put his arm around Qiao Jinniang’s waist and said, “I know you don’t like unnecessary and overelaborate formalities, but trust me, you are not the most tired one.

“At our wedding, the officials and their wives have to get up earlier than you and worship ancestors together with you.

“At that time, you can ride a chariot while they can only walk. “No matter what they think in their hearts, at our wedding, they have to respect you very much, especially given the fact that you were granted a title conferring ceremony.”

Qiao Jinniang: “You did all these just to make them bow their heads to me and respect me?”

She couldn’t help but feel moved.

Lu Chen shook his head and said, “Most importantly, I’m worried that my willful crown princess may want to divorce me…

“But with a title conferring ceremony, you can only be my woman in this life.”

Qiao Jinniang chuckled. “As long as you don’t fail me, I certainly won’t ask for divorce for nothing!

“Lu Chen, I want you to remember that you can only be my man in this life too!”

Lu Chen picked her up, walked to the bed, and said huskily,

“I promise you. If I break my promise, you can poison me with those poisonous mushrooms and grass.”

Qiao Jinniang said, “According to the novels I read, those who say such words will all break their promises in the end.”

“I will not.”

The gauze curtain on the edge of the bed slowly fell, blocking the scene that would make people blush.

The maids guarding the door were already used to this and went to prepare hot water for them with blushing faces.

But unfortunately, Old Madam Qiao happened to come to the Jin Garden to ask Qiao Jinniang for her opinion on the adoption matter at this time.

When she walked to the door of the room, she was stopped by Hongling with a blushing face. “Old Madam, the Crown Princess has already slept.”

At this time, it was still early in the day. Old Madam Qiao thought maybe Qiao Jinniang was tired today, so she said, “Okay, take good care of her. I’ll come again tomorrow.”

When Old Madam Qiao was about to leave, she suddenly heard from the room groans and chuckles that were deliberately lowered, and she immediately frowned.

Noma

Then she heard that in the room, a woman was calling “Honey” in a sweet and seductive voice.

Old Madam Qiao’s eyes widened. She clenched her hands and her mind was racing. Although this voice was soft, she could tell it was Qiao Jinniang’s voice!

Jinniang, how daring you are!

She had already been given the title of crown princess, and the wedding date was only less than a month away, but now she was dating a man in the Duke Mansion?!

This must not be known by outsiders. Otherwise, the Duke Mansion would be doomed.

Old Madam Qiao gritted her teeth and said, “Qin’er, call some reliable mommies and guards over, surround this yard, and let no one leave!

“Catch all the maids in the Jin Garden and gag them, and then ask the Duke and Madam to come over.”

Hongling thought that Old Madam Qiao must not know the man inside was actually the Crown Prince.

Just as she was about to speak, a mammy gagged her and Hongling struggled.

But the mammy thought she was going to shout loudly, so she bound her up even more tightly, making it impossible for her to break free…

When Duke Anyuan and Zheng Xiao came, seeing the mess in the courtyard, Zheng Xiao hurriedly asked, “Mother, what happened?”

Madam Qiao ran the Buddha beads through her fingers to suppress her inner panic and said, “Our Duke Mansion is doomed, Jinniang, Jinniang, she…”

Old Madam Qiao was too ashamed to tell what happened, and after quite a while, she said,

“She is dating a man in her boudoir, and that man is still inside!

“Fortunately, the imperial maids are not in the Jin Garden at night!”

Zheng Xiao was shocked. “Although Jinniang is bold, I don’t think she dares to do this!”

Duke Anyuan also said, “Mother, did you hear it wrong?”

Old Madam Qiao glared at him and said, “I’m not deaf!

“None of these maids in Jin Garden can be spared.

“However, Lu’er is going to take the imperial examination and Xiao’er is going to give birth to a child, so we shouldn’t kill at this time. Poison them mute and lock them up in a manor!

“The adulterer is still in the room. When he comes out, cut him into pieces!

“Most importantly, this matter must not be leaked.”

Duke Anyuan frowned and said, “Mother, if Jinniang really committed this heinous crime, shouldn’t we confess it to His Royal Highness and ask for punishment?

“How can we conceal it for Jinniang and indulge her in cuckolding the Crown Prince?”

Zheng Xiao glanced at Duke Anyuan displeasedly. “Do you want Jinniang to die? Compared to Jinniang’s life, cuckolding the Crown Prince is not a big deal!”

Duke Anyuan: “…”
