Quick Wear: The Enchanting Concubine, Rules of Survival and Plunder
Chapter 1036 Brainless Love and Resentment 4
“If you ask me, what Miss Jiang just said might actually be true,” another female guest said. “Perhaps Prince Li has been having an affair with his cousin for a long time, and that’s why he’s thinking of giving his deceased, beloved cousin the position of his legal wife.”
“If we continue to speculate based on this theory, perhaps Prince Li’s cousin is not dead at all,” a female guest mocked. “What kind of place is Huangjue Temple? It’s a royal temple. There have never been any robbers there. After all, no matter how arrogant the bandits are, they wouldn’t dare to commit violence at the foot of the capital, let alone in a royal temple.”
"So! This so-called life-saving grace is just a trap set for Miss Jiang. If Miss Jiang really agrees to this absurd request today and becomes Prince Li's concubine, then Prince Li's dead cousin will probably come back to life."
"Ha! You've really played your cards right," came the voice of the Imperial Censor. "Marquis Ningxin, I must report this to His Majesty at the morning court tomorrow. Your Marquis Ningxin's household had better confirm that the so-called cousin of the Heir Apparent Li is indeed dead, otherwise..."
Before he could finish speaking, the Imperial Censor's words had already terrified Li's father and mother.
In the original owner's previous life, because the original owner was brain-dead, she accepted Li Renhuai's so-called life-saving grace and foolishly watched Li Renhuai marry a woman, willingly becoming Li Renhuai's concubine. Naturally, the guests present did not interfere or say anything.
After all, the person involved is willing to act foolishly and shamelessly, so who would bother to say anything, lest they not only fail to get a good word but also get themselves into trouble?
"Nonsense, nonsense!" Marquis Ningxin said angrily. "Imperial Censor Ning, if you dare to spout such nonsense again, don't blame me for submitting a memorial impeaching you."
"Everyone here knows perfectly well who is spouting such nonsense." Just then, the Jiang family arrived, and it was the original owner's grandfather, Grand Tutor Jiang, who spoke.
That's right. Just as the original owner's personal maid went out, she had already instructed someone to go to the Jiang family and inform them of what the Ningxin Marquis's mansion had done.
“Your Ningxin Marquis’s mansion is truly something else,” Grand Tutor Jiang’s face was so gloomy it could drip water. “To make my daughter, the legitimate daughter of the Jiang family, a concubine, your Ningxin Marquis’s mansion has a lot of nerve.”
“Grandfather, Father,” Jiang Chunxi cried, throwing herself into the arms of the original owner’s father, “The Ningxin Marquis’s mansion has gone too far! You must stand up for Chunxi!”
"Good daughter, don't cry," Mr. Jiang's heart was breaking at the sight of his beloved daughter crying like this. "With your father here, no one can bully you."
Then, Jiang's father looked at Li Renhuai with a fierce gaze: "Since Young Master Li is so fond of bowing to a memorial tablet, then our Jiang family naturally has no reason not to grant his wish. This marriage is off, but the Jiang family will remember the humiliation my daughter suffered today."
Li Renhuai was anxious and angry, and even more so, panicked. He couldn't understand how things had turned out this way.
After all, Li Renhuai knew exactly how foolish Jiang Chunxi was and how easily he could manipulate her. If he wasn't confident that he could control Jiang Chunxi, he wouldn't have come up with this plan to make his cousin his wife and the heir apparent of the Ningxin Marquis's mansion.
