Demoted from wife to concubine? Reborn, the mistress of a noble family plots another high-status mar

Chapter 1205

On this day, Yunxi Yue was picking watermelons in the greenhouse of the inner palace.

She leaned down slightly, her gaze carefully scanning each round, plump watermelon.

Her fingertips gently touched the surface of the watermelon, as if sensing its ripeness.

After choosing a watermelon she liked, she steadily held the watermelon with one hand and pulled it down.

She gently placed the watermelon in the bamboo basket beside her, her movements careful, as if afraid of bumping or knocking it over.

"Your Majesty, this year's watermelon harvest is quite good," said Caiwei, accompanied by several palace maids.

The people of Jiaofang Palace all liked to follow Yunxi Yue to the vegetable shed.

There are all kinds of delicious food, vegetables, and even watermelons.

Everyone can taste them every time they are picked.

A few strands of hair on Yunxi Yue's forehead were slightly damp with sweat from her work, but she didn't notice. "I'll put them in the well water to chill them later, and they'll be even sweeter to eat tomorrow."

"Check how many baskets there are, and see where to send them to the Empress Dowager. Give some to the Yun family, the Zhou family, the Xiao family, and a few princely residences as well."

Several palace maids immediately went to pick watermelons.

At this moment, a young eunuch came over and said, "Your Highness, I heard that Princess Chaoyang and Young Master Qin are getting a divorce."

"Ok?"

The last time a couple in the capital had a falling out over divorce was Shen Yue and her.

I never expected to hear the word "divorce" again after so many years.

"The Emperor agreed?" Yun Qingli took the handkerchief handed to her by the palace maid, wiped her forehead, and raised her eyes.

"The Prince of Liang and his heir are currently in the Imperial Study. I heard that the Emperor is angry."

......

"What happened? Why are you getting a divorce all of a sudden?!"

Murong Chengyou said, "Uncle, please calm down. It was my idea. My sister was unhappy in the Qin family. She only gave birth to one daughter, and the second wife of the Qin family and Qin Changlin were both dissatisfied with her."

"Since you think my sister is no good, then just get a divorce, so as not to block the Qin family from continuing their lineage."

King Liang remained silent, his face dark and brooding.

Because this marriage to their daughter was arranged by Murong Yu, and although she was unwilling at first, he insisted that she marry him.

He harbors resentment because his daughter is not doing well.

Murong Yu saw through it, but he didn't accuse him, after all, he didn't vent his resentment.

What does the King of Liang mean?

King Liang said, "Your Majesty's will."

"You made me choose a husband for Chaoyang back then, do you resent me now?"

King Liang immediately knelt down, saying, "Your subject dares not."

"Royal Uncle..." Murong Chengyou also knelt down.

"Get up! Let's ask them what they think about this first. Don't think it's all the Qin family's fault. As far as I know, it's because Chaoyang doesn't want to share a room with Qin Si and won't let him touch her. She also forbids him from taking a concubine. Tell me, where in the world is there such a domineering person!"

The father and son froze.

"She also fed those concubines infertility drugs. If asked, the second branch of the Qin family will definitely tell you about this, and they will definitely agree to a divorce."

"But with Chaoyang's temperament and mindset, she won't be happy no matter who she marries, because she's too selfish."

King Liang's face immediately turned red; he had not expected his daughter to look like this.

Murong Yu glanced at him. "No matter who it is, a father will always favor his daughter. What she did may not seem like much to you, but it won't be the same when she's in her husband's family. They won't tolerate you unconditionally."

“It’s my fault for not teaching Chaoyang well. Their mother died early…” King Liang felt bad, as he also bore responsibility for his daughters’ condition.

When Chaoyang was three years old, she died in childbirth due to complications during the delivery of Murong Chengyou.

He did not marry later, because he was in his fiefdom.

It's not easy to choose a woman from a good family to be your legal wife.

The women sent over could only be concubines.

"Go back and discuss it first. If they really can't make it work, I won't stop them from getting a divorce. But since we're all family, I've said a few more words about things that outsiders wouldn't say."

I won't say it again.

Given Murong Yu's personality, he wouldn't tell others these things.
