Chapter 140: Honey trap
King Kang also heard the voice and became immediately dissatisfied. How could he be said to be stupid? He was about to open his mouth to retort that he didn't wear it, but Xiao Lie covered his mouth again.
Xiao Lie felt that 011's description was very accurate. His cousin's brain was indeed not very good. He should talk to his shrewd sister-in-law!
"Sister-in-law, aren't you and your wife usually on good terms? What's the matter today? Why are you suddenly arguing in the street?"
Xiao Lie asked. Although they would know the truth immediately with 011 involved in the matter, if they didn't ask, it wouldn't be in line with their personalities, as they all liked to join in the fun.
In the face of such a big scene, it is obviously very strange to say nothing and ask nothing.
Princess Kang glared at Prince Kang who was hiding behind Xiao Lie and said to him, "This is a long story. Aren't you going to our house for lunch? I'll tell you when we get there. Let's go back now!"
As he said this, he walked towards the carriage next to him. Prince Kang was still thinking about what Xiao Lie had just told him. Princess Kang didn't know about it yet, so he had to tell her to avoid being exposed.
Shen Shixu brought their horses back, and rode on them one by one. Under the leadership of Xiao Lie, they followed the carriage of Prince Kang's Mansion to Prince Kang's Mansion.
On their way to Prince Kang's Mansion, the live broadcast started.
In the scene, King Kang goes to meet a good friend whom he hasn't seen for many years. That person was his study partner when he was young. The two had a very good relationship. Later, because of some things, the study partner followed his father to take up a position somewhere else, and gradually the two had less contact.
The man recently returned to the capital, and within a few days he sent messages to his old friends, inviting them to come over for a drink and reminisce about the past.
Of course, King Kang could not be left out of this. King Kang was a mean man and treated people sincerely. When he saw his friend who he hadn't seen for a long time coming back and received the invitation, he naturally went happily with gifts.
He had no idea that the person who invited him there just wanted to take advantage of him.
That man left the capital not just to follow his father to take up the post, but because his father committed a serious mistake and was exiled to be a minor official.
His father hoped that he would pass the imperial examinations and get a government job, but he was not really a student, so he started a business.
But they were careless in their business and finally they couldn't make a living.
I thought about going back to Beijing to contact my old friends and see if I could find a way out, but when I arrived in Beijing, I was dazzled by its prosperity.
Their former house still exists. It was left there by the late emperor in recognition of their family's past contributions. All the people living around here are dignitaries, except for their impoverished family.
Originally I just wanted to find a way out, but when I looked at the houses around me, where people were picked up and dropped off by cars every day, surrounded by servants and maids, and wearing gold and silver jewelry, I didn't want to live an ordinary life.
So the couple discussed it and set up a plan. They pawned all their property and exchanged it for a large sum of money to hold a banquet, just to invite King Kang over.
That person also knew that among all his friends, only King Kang was the easiest to deceive and had the most power. Even if he couldn't get an official position, he could still get enormous wealth.
At first, the man’s wife was unwilling to take the risk. After all, if this got out, her reputation would be ruined.
But when she saw the ladies of the house next to hers, and even the concubines, wearing jewelry and using the finest rouge and powder, she also became moved.
At first they were worried whether King Kang would come to the appointment, but when they saw him coming, the heavy stone in their hearts finally fell into their hearts.
At the banquet, the man kept forcing King Kang to drink. King Kang's alcohol tolerance was not very good to begin with, and he became dizzy after a few drinks. The man took King Kang away from the banquet under the pretext of sending him to rest.
When Princess Kang saw this scene, she glared at Prince Kang fiercely. At that time, she did not agree to Prince Kang going to the appointment.
When a friend I haven't seen for such a long time suddenly contacts me to make an appointment, I feel that the person has some ulterior motive.
But King Kang insisted on going, saying that he had not seen that friend for many years, and even if he really had some ulterior motive, he would be happy to do so if he could help.
Princess Kang knew that he was a kind-hearted person, and that was why she fell in love with him at that time, but sometimes being kind is not a good thing.
Seeing that he insisted on going, Princess Kang originally wanted to go with him, but at that time she had something to do at her parents' home, so she went back.
Otherwise, with her watching, King Kang wouldn't be so easily plotted against.
The drunk King Kang was helped into a room filled with incense. Before entering, he shouted that he was not drunk and could drink two more jars of wine. However, not long after entering, he lost consciousness and lay on the bed like a corpse.
Then came the mosaic scene. The man stripped off all the clothes on King Kang and wiped the sweat off his head. King Kang, who had just slept like a dead pig, cursed, "He eats so much that he's fat. I'm so tired!"
After he went out, a barefoot woman wearing a pastel-colored gauze dress walked in.
Princess Kang's already unhappy face turned even darker when she saw this scene. Although she knew nothing had happened between the two of them, any woman would not look happy when she thought that there was another woman coveting her husband!
After the woman came in, she took off her clothes, climbed onto the bed and lay next to King Kang.
Just like this, the night passed. The next day, King Kang woke up with a hangover and rubbed his dizzy head. He felt someone lying next to him, but he thought it was his queen.
Who knew that when he turned around, he saw a strange, naked woman lying next to him.
And this woman looked quite familiar, before he could remember who she was. The door was kicked open from outside.
King Kang looked at his friend who came in angrily, and finally remembered who that familiar woman was. Isn’t that his good friend’s wife?
The woman woke up due to the loud noise, and then she screamed so loud that it almost broke through the roof.
King Kang, who was already slow to react due to a hangover, was even more unable to react after this series of events. He promised a lot of benefits in a daze.
Not only should the person be given an official position, but he should also be given gold, silver and jewelry as compensation.
Prince Kang did not tell Princess Kang about this matter. He handled the matter secretly, arranged an official position for the person, and then "compensated" the person with his own hidden private money.
When Princess Kang saw this, she understood why this stupid prince thought of using the money from the household collection. It turned out that his own private money had been used up.
When Princess Kang thought about how she had been cheated out of so much money and this man was still foolishly adding more money, she felt a pain in her chest and was very angry.
