Chapter 37 The Princess is Confused
Yes, it doesn’t matter why Chen Gongfu suddenly went crazy and said those words.
The important thing is that the prince consort who had just sworn to be so confident actually lied!
He did not go home when it was not his turn on duty, and even lied to the princess and did not return until the early morning.
A man, late at night...
It’s hard not to think too much, right? ! A little thought can bring up a lot of ideas...
Wen Ling's words brought everyone's focus back to the prince consort.
The eldest princess was stunned again.
The impact of Chen Gongfu's words was greater than when Wen Ling told her that Xiaocao was her biological daughter.
Because there is no evidence to prove that Xiaocao is her biological daughter, it is completely false.
But the prince consort lied to her and put it right in front of her.
After being married for sixteen years, the thing she was most satisfied with in her life was her marriage to her husband.
Everyone in the capital knew that the prince consort was a good man, considerate and attentive to her, and the two of them had never had a quarrel.
The prince consort never said a bad word about the princess outside, and he didn't have any other romantic interests.
The eldest princess also trusts her husband very much.
But now, he actually lied to her, and if someone hadn't reminded her to this extent, she wouldn't even know...
Seeing that the princess looked unhappy, the consort said quickly, "Madam, please listen to my explanation. I was indeed not on duty last night, but I had my reasons.
I have a friend who needs my help. His situation is rather special. I was afraid that if I helped him, you would be angry, so I didn’t tell you…”
The eldest princess's expression eased a little. In fact, she didn't believe from the bottom of her heart that her husband would do anything to let her down.
Because if the prince consort really did it, then the marriage that she had been proud of and praised by everyone for so many years would really become a joke.
How many people praised and envied you before, how many people will mock you later...
Moreover, the trust accumulated over the years also made the princess more willing to believe the explanation of her husband.
But the princess was still a little unhappy. She said unhappily, "Since you guessed that I might be angry, you still did it secretly behind my back.
And since you have already done it, why didn’t you tell me first? ”
The prince consort softened his voice and apologized in a good-tempered manner: "Madam, I'm sorry, I know I was wrong. I did something wrong.
But my friend's story is quite private, I can't bring it up in this kind of situation.
I'll explain it to you after this is over. ”
Seeing that the matter was about to be revealed so easily, even the Marquis's wife became anxious.
It is true that a bystander sees more clearly. It is obvious that the prince consort is trying to deceive the princess.
How could this princess be so brainless that she just believed such outrageous statements?
But will Wen Ling let this matter go like this?
Of course not!
So Wen Ling asked again: "So, where did the Prince Consort go last night, and which friend did he help?"
Faced with Wen Ling's relentless pursuit, the prince consort wished he could kill her right now to shut her up.
But he has calmed down now. The more anxious he is, the easier it will be for him to be deceived by Wen Ling.
He sighed and asked innocently and helplessly: "Princess Chen, if I have offended you and Prince Chen before without my knowledge, then I apologize to you now, or we can talk it out.
There is no need for you to target me for no reason at my daughter's coming-of-age ceremony today. It will make both of us look bad and we will lose face. ”
When he said this, it was as if Wen Ling was deliberately targeting him, deliberately making trouble, and deliberately throwing dirty water on him.
Wen Ling didn't care about his ramblings, she continued to ask: "Is it inconvenient to talk about your friend's affairs, or is it inconvenient to talk about the affairs between you and your friend?
Is your best friend a man or a woman? ”
This question has reached the bottom, and it is just short of saying it in plain words.
The prince consort could no longer control himself, and he roared: "Princess Chen, please stop spitting bloody words at me!"
Even Gu Guilan didn't have time to pretend to be aggrieved and pitiful anymore.
She rushed to Wen Ling, raised her hand and hit Wen Ling in the face: "I will beat you to death, you bitch who talks nonsense, tries to sow discord between my parents, and can't stand others doing well!"
Just as her slap was about to land on Wen Ling's face, Wen Ling dodged to the side.
Gu Guilan missed her target and finally managed to steady herself, but Wen Ling kicked her in the butt, causing her to fall face first onto the ground.
Wen Ling frowned: "Just talk, why did you fight? Everyone just saw it. She wanted to hit me. I was just defending myself!"
No one knew what self-defense meant. Everyone just saw that the Princess Chen seemed really difficult to mess with.
Gu Guilan fell to the ground and was not until the maid helped him up that he was wiping his dislocated chin, his face full of disbelief, not reacting at all.
No one in the audience dared to speak.
Many people felt that this farce was too exciting and they were afraid to watch it.
But they really want to continue watching, and since no one is chasing them away, they can just continue watching!
Faced with this increasingly intense farce, the eldest princess felt the veins on her forehead throbbing.
She slammed the table and shouted, "Enough!"
It was as if the pause button was pressed in the hall; everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at the eldest princess.
The eldest princess glanced at the furious prince consort and daughter and did not comfort them or speak for them.
She always felt that what happened today was different. Princess Chen was not really crazy. Even if she was, she would not make accusations for no reason.
There is no smoke without fire; everything happens for a reason.
Even if she had the intention to deceive herself, Princess Chen was now preventing her from having this opportunity.
The princess looked at Wen Ling solemnly: "Princess Chen, you don't have to beat around the bush. Just tell me what you know.
After you said it, we will investigate whether it is true or not on the spot today. ”
"But," the princess changed the subject, her eyes becoming dangerous, "If all this today is just a farce caused by Princess Chen's fabrication, then I will make sure you and Prince Chen pay the price!"
Wen Ling smiled and said, "Okay, that's what I've been waiting for you to say!"
The prince consort was a little anxious: "Madam, do you believe her but not me?"
The princess asked back, "If she is just talking nonsense, why are you so anxious, Mo Lang? Wouldn't it be better to investigate it today and avoid future rumors?"
Prince Consort: “…”
He was choked, he really had no words to say.
Wen Ling really didn't beat around the bush and told her husband everything she saw.
