Princess Yuyang and her parents, the second young master of the Mo family, are a well-known loving couple in the capital.
According to various rumors, the prince consort was deeply in love with Princess Yuyang and spent a lot of effort in pursuing the princess.
Later, he successfully married the princess, and he continued to treat her well for ten years.
So, how come this couple is not truly in love?
[Waiter: Host, you should also know that Princess Yuyang once loved Shangguan Sui and was determined to marry him, right?]
[Hmm, so what? Could it be that because of this incident, the Prince Consort has a grudge against Princess Yuyang?]
[Waiter: The Prince Consort doesn't care who Princess Yuyang loves. He married her solely because of her status as a princess.]
[Waiter: Back then, the prince consort had a beloved cousin, but the Mo family wanted their son to marry the princess, so they married his cousin off far away.]
[Waiter: The Prince Consort's cousin, whose parents had both passed away, was living with Duke Mo at his mansion. Gradually, they developed feelings for each other, or rather, they opened up about it.]
[Waiter: So, Duke Mo and his wife wanted their son to be a prince consort, so they married off the cousin far away. The wedding was a grand affair, and Duke Mo's family gave her a substantial dowry. She took everything her cousin's parents had left her.]
[Waiter: That cousin's wedding was a grand affair, but unfortunately, her married life is far from happy. Her husband is not only sickly but also violent.]
[What? Another domestic violence man?] Wushuang's face turned sour after hearing what the waiter said.
The third son of the Minister of Rites, who was so inhumane that he insisted on marrying and then abusing his wife, now has another domestic violence patient?
"No, you said the prince consort's cousin married a sickly woman, and he actually abused her?" Wushuang asked in surprise.
[Waiter: Host, domestic violence isn't something that only the strong and healthy can do. That cousin's husband has a sadistic streak, and he abuses his woman whenever he has sex.]
[Waiter: Living such a miserable life after marriage, the cousin naturally missed her beloved cousin even more. Later, when the prince consort learned of his beloved cousin's plight, he continued to have an affair with her.]
[So, the prince consort and his cousin both cheated on her?] Wushuang asked curiously.
Although she sympathized with her cousin, she suddenly felt that Princess Yuyang was a little miserable. What was going on?
[Waiter: About the same... Actually, the princess knows about the affair between the Prince Consort and his cousin.]
[What? Princess Yuyang knows?] Wushuang was even more surprised.
[Waiter: If she didn't know everything about her husband, the person beside her, she would be completely blind and stupid. In fact, she knew it six months after the prince consort rekindled his old relationship with his cousin.]
[Waiter: Then, Princess Yuyang took the initiative to help the prince consort and his cousin keep the affair a secret, even faking the cousin's death to get away with it, allowing the prince consort to keep her as a concubine.]
[Waiter: The princess herself has a group of male lovers, who are also kept outside.]
[Waiter: Of the children currently in the Princess's residence, only one is the Prince Consort's biological child. The rest are basically the Princess's children with her concubines.]
Wushuang: “…”
[Princess Yuyang is amazing.] Wushuang looked at Princess Yuyang with admiration.
This person is really amazing.
After listening to the conversation between Wushuang and Xiaoer, Mo Yuncheng also looked at his sister with a magical look.
He really didn't expect that his sister had such means and could hide it from everyone for so long. If they hadn't heard Wushuang's thoughts, they wouldn't have known that Yuyang and her parents were actually faking their love.
After Mo Yuncheng learned about Princess Yuyang's affairs, he had no intention of exposing her. After all, the princess and her husband had lived in peace for so many years, so they must have reached an agreement.
Anyway, his sister didn't suffer any loss, so there was no need for him to intervene.
This is just a family affair between the princess and her husband. It has nothing to do with the kingdom of Dayin...
[Waiter: You know what? Princess Yuyang's favorites are all very capable. They all make a lot of money to support Princess Yuyang.]
What do you mean? Wushuang asked curiously.
[Waiter: One of Princess Yuyang's lovers became a large landowner. In addition to the vast tracts of land outside the capital, he even occupied a large tract of land in Jiangnan. While it was nominally his, it actually belonged to the princess.]
[Waiter: The annual income from this vast land is used to support the princess and her child with her lover.]
Wushuang was surprised to hear this, "That concubine has occupied so much land, has he never thought of betraying the princess? Don't tell me that concubine truly loves the princess."
[Waiter: How could it be true love? Princess Yuyang's favorite only followed her for power, how could it be true love? The reason the landlord's favorite didn't betray the princess was because the princess had a close eye on him.]
Waiter: You must understand that the imperial power of Dayin is the greatest, and Emperor Mo Xuan is the most powerful person. The royal family is the most inviolable. If that landlord betrays the princess, the princess can easily crush him.
[Waiter: For the sake of wealth and glory, his own life, and the safety of his clan, he certainly cannot betray the princess.]
[Princess Yuyang is quite resourceful.] Wushuang exclaimed.
[Waiter: Tell me, how did this wealthy landlord's mistress acquire all the land?]
[Could it be that... they are all forcibly seizing the people's land? ]
【Waiter: Correct.】
Waiter: Besides the wealthy landlords' concubines who seized the common people's land, Princess Yuyang also had concubines who were wealthy businessmen, who also became wealthy through similar means. One such example was the owner of a chain restaurant, who used dirty tricks to steal someone's ancestral secret recipe, causing the family to be ruined.
[Waiter: Although Princess Yuyang didn't frame Shangguan Sui out of hatred for Dayin, she had no sympathy for the other common people.]
[Waiter: She knows full well that Shangguan Sui is protecting Dayin's safety. Only when the Mo family's imperial power is secure can she, as a princess, display her power and influence. Therefore, she won't touch Shangguan Sui, but she has no sympathy for the common people.]
Wushuang really didn't expect this.
"So what should I do now? Should I expose Princess Yuyang's seizure of fertile farmland and other people's ancestral secret recipes?"
[But even if I reveal these things, will the royal family protect Princess Yuyang and let it go?]
"Tell me, how much land did that landlord's mistress forcibly seize? How much land is under his name?" Wushuang couldn't help but ask.
Waiter: That landowner probably owns an entire state's worth of land, right? The annual income from his land is higher than the tax revenue of an entire state.
【hiss--】
Wushuang took a breath of cold air, and Mo Yuncheng and Shangguan Sui, who heard her thoughts, also took a breath of cold air in their hearts.
The land income is higher than the tax revenue of a state capital. It is simply shocking.
