Chapter 32: A newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger, but is afraid of its weight
"I haven't been to your place for only a month, and you dare to cuckold me like this!"
The Crown Princess put on her clothes hastily and lay down on the bed. Then she hugged the Crown Prince's thighs and cried, saying that she didn't know the man at all.
The prince didn't believe it.
Not only the prince didn't believe it, but everyone in the Eastern Palace didn't believe it.
Because the prince is a very suspicious person, he always feels that someone wants to harm him, so the Eastern Palace is heavily guarded.
Qin Feng, who was awakened by the deafening crying and had no idea why he was lying on the Crown Princess's bed, was frightened out of his wits.
Isn't it courting death for a woman to lay hands on the crown prince?!
Qin Feng kowtowed to the prince's head loudly.
The prince, who had never experienced such a big affair, thought that the two people who were having an affair must have been exchanging letters, so he immediately sent people to conduct a carpet search of the princess's residence.
The guards of the Eastern Palace quickly turned the Crown Princess's residence upside down.
"Your Highness, these are the love poems we found."
"Your Highness, this is the copper basin placed under the table. It contains the ashes of burnt paper."
The furious prince snatched the love poem from the guard's hand.
The more I looked at him, the stronger his murderous intent became.
"Come here, bring me pen, ink, paper, and inkstone! Let this adulterer copy out a love poem from my hand and compare the handwriting!"
After a cup of tea, the prince was on the verge of rage as he looked at the identical handwriting on the paper.
He picked up the copper basin filled with paper ash from the guard beside him and smashed it on the Crown Princess's head.
"Jiang Wanyue, what else do you have to say? The paper ashes in this copper basin are evidence of your correspondence, right? Something shameful was written in there that you were told to burn immediately!"
"No wonder you've been leaving the palace so frequently in the past few months. It turns out you were meeting men in secret! Jiang Wanyue, of all the women in the East Palace, I love you the most, and yet you're cheating on me!"
Jiang Wanyue was crying like a pear blossom in the rain, holding the prince's calf tightly and refusing to let go.
"Your Highness, I am wronged! I have never done anything unfaithful to you!"
The prince kicked her away.
"Unjust? The Eastern Palace is heavily guarded. If it weren't for your cooperation, how could this adulterer have entered the Eastern Palace without anyone noticing?"
Qin Feng, who was frightened out of his wits, knelt on the ground like a pile of rotten meat.
"Yesterday afternoon, the sky was overcast, and there was a thunderstorm that night. I haven't left my house since yesterday afternoon, and I don't know why I was in the East Palace the moment I opened my eyes. Even if I had a hundred guts, I wouldn't dare to touch the Crown Princess, Your Highness! Please understand!"
The prince kicked Qin Feng hard on the head.
"Did I allow you to speak?"
After he finished speaking, the prince looked down at Jiang Wanyue who was kneeling at his feet. When he saw the red plum blossoms on her neck, he was so angry that his lungs almost exploded.
"Come! Bring Duke Jiang and his wife to the Eastern Palace immediately! Let them see with their own eyes what their daughter has done!"
Jiang Wanyue cried heart-wrenchingly.
"Your Highness! Please don't! I am innocent! I am truly innocent!"
Half an hour later, Duke Jiang and his wife hurried to the East Palace.
After the two of them understood the situation, Jiang Wanyue's mother pulled Jiang Wanyue to a side hall and looked at her daughter's body.
Looking at the many marks on her daughter's body, Mrs. Jiang grunted and fainted from anger.
Seeing his daughter doing such a shameful thing, Duke Jiang beat and scolded the Crown Princess and begged for forgiveness from the Crown Prince at the risk of his dignity.
The prince, who had never encountered any adultery before, immediately divorced Jiang Wanyue with a letter of divorce.
After resolutely divorcing his wife, the furious prince drew his sword and shot the adulterer Qin Feng through the heart.
In short, the East Palace was in chaos that day.
Royal secrets are never leaked. Even though the Eastern Palace blocked the news and gave a unified statement to the outside world, Prince Rui still knew the whole story.
Because he has spies in the East Palace.
Similarly, the prince also has spies in Prince Rui's palace.
After Jiang Hanyu heard the spy's report, his long-held suspicions were completely confirmed.
She was not herself, so she was not sad at all after the prince broke off the engagement, because she did not love the prince at all.
Then, he would make himself the first person she fell in love with.
Thinking of this, Jiang Hanyu curled his lips slightly.
He used to be extremely resistant to getting married, but now he looks forward to his wedding day every day and complains that time is passing too slowly...
Let me explain this in two ways.
When Xiu'er vividly described how the Crown Princess was divorced because she disobeyed the Queen after being married into the Eastern Palace for two years without having any children and was dissatisfied with the Queen's scolding, Su Yuyan couldn't help but sigh at the royal family's public relations ability.
After sending Xiu'er away, Su Yuyan talked to herself.
"Original owner, I have avenged you. So many days have passed, and Su Yao has long become a pile of fertilizer; the Crown Princess slept with a scumbag and was divorced by the Crown Prince. She will live a life worse than death for the rest of her life. You, rest in peace."
The next afternoon, Su Yuyan, who was drawing a human body diagram in her room, was invited into the palace by the nanny sent by the Queen Mother.
In Yongshou Palace, the Queen Mother exempted Su Yuyan from the ceremony and gave her a seat.
"Don't be nervous. I sent you here because I want to see my granddaughter-in-law."
"Your grandmother and I were close friends. If she were still alive, I wouldn't be without someone to talk to."
In front of such a powerful person, Su Yuyan decisively chose to play straight.
"To reply to the Queen Mother, I am not nervous."
"If the Queen Mother wants to talk to someone, then she has found the right person, because I can talk about any topic. I wonder what the Queen Mother wants to talk about?"
The Queen Mother was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.
"You know that every time I summoned your grandmother to the palace to accompany me, she was always cautious in front of me, but you are so bold and daring."
Su Yuyan smiled.
"As the saying goes, a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger, but is afraid of being unable to stop its weight."
"It is precisely because I have been living in exile since birth and have no knowledge of rules and etiquette that I dare to speak so brazenly in front of the Queen Mother."
The empress dowager, who came from a noble family, had never seen such a lively and courageous woman.
"Many of my daughters-in-law and granddaughters-in-law are so cautious and trembling in fear in front of me. I have never seen someone as spontaneous and outspoken as you."
"In that case, I'd like to talk to you."
Su Yuyan, who is good at socializing, started chatting with the Queen Mother in the most humorous and witty language.
Soon, she maxed out the Queen Mother's emotional value.
Of course, she is very sensible and never talks about any sensitive topics.
The empress dowager's long-lost laughter echoed in Yongshou Palace, shocking all the palace servants.
An hour later, Luo Wuchen came to check the empress dowager's pulse as usual.
When he saw Su Yuyan, who made his heart beat fast, Luo Wuchen's breathing became slightly disordered.
His drooping eyelashes cast a shadow under his eyes, and a stinging and sour feeling instantly spread throughout his heart.
The empress dowager placed her wrist on the table as usual and let Luo Wuchen take her pulse.
"You must be tired after chatting with me for so long."
"Come here, I want to reward the Su family with four sets of Ryukyu giant clams, six sets of brocade palace dresses, a white jade Guanyin statue, twelve sandalwood carvings, and seven pairs of moonstone earrings..."
Su Yuyan was surprised.
"Why did the Queen Mother reward you so much?"
There was also a joy in the Queen Mother's voice that was impossible to ignore.
