Becoming The Real Rich Daughter After Divorce Novel - Chapter 353
Chapter 353: Chapter 353, the Hong family’s scheme
Qiao ruoyi heard Yan Yu’s voice from outside and got down from the Imperial Consort’s bed. She stood up and went to the courtyard door to welcome her.
Hong Qifeng came over and said, “Sister Ruoyi, are you feeling better? When can you return to the Department of Officials’Yamen? I’ve been busy with all the official business for the past month alone and I can’t take it anymore.”
Qiao ruoyi said, “The imperial physician said that the child is already stable and that you just need to be careful on a daily basis. However, I’m afraid that if I go out now, I’ll attract the ridicule of others.”
Although she did not intentionally get pregnant with another man when they were engaged, this matter could not be publicized.
Ye suxin, who was at the side, said, “At least you still have some self-awareness. Qifeng, I advise you to not associate with this kind of shameless and immoral woman. You’re about to get married and you’re pregnant with another man. TSK TSK!”
Hong Qifeng said to Ye suxin with slight annoyance, “I believe that Sister Ruoyi is not such a shameless person. On the contrary, you pestered my brother and haven’t married into our Hong family yet. Yet, you still dare to come to the Qiao family’s banquet today.
“It’s also because the Qiao family wants face. Otherwise, a person like you is not even worthy to enter the Qiao family’s main gate.”
Ye Su was so angry that she stomped her feet. “Your elbow is turning outward!”
Qiao ruoyi heard the two cousins arguing and said, “Qifeng, let’s go to the front yard. It seems that the banquet is about to start.”
Hong qifeng nodded and said, “Okay.”
…
The Qiao family’s Full Moon Banquet was a lively one. There were many guests attending the banquet. The old madam of the Marquis of Jingwu didn’t mind coming to the banquet when the marriage was not going to work out. She was really anxious and if she didn’t make a wife for her son.., when that time came, it would be difficult to talk about her granddaughter’s marriage.
Now, there was a new law. The illegitimate son’s legitimate son would receive the same amount of property. Her own grandson did not have the help of his mother. The Marquis of Jingwu still had two concubines. She had to quickly find a girl to suppress those two concubines.
While the old madam of the Marquis of Jingwu and the madam of the Marquis of Wu an were conversing, she saw ye suxin, who was beside the madam of the Marquis of Wu an, and said, “This girl looks very unfamiliar. I don’t think I’ve seen her before.”
The madam of the Marquis of wu an said, “She’s My Sister’s daughter. Her ancestors were imperial physicians, an aristocratic family of medicine.”
Old Madam Sun looked at Ye Suxin’s appearance and said, “The daughter of the Ye family. Have you talked about marriage?”
Ye suxin was about to say that she was already discussing marriage with her cousin of the Hong family when she heard the madam of the Marquis of Wu An, who was also her aunt, say, “No.”
Old Madam Sun smiled. “She’s a good choice.”
At the full moon banquet, when Zheng Xiao and the eldest princess came out with the baby in their arms, everyone was envious of the girl in their arms. She was born with dignity.
She was given the title of county head even though it was only the full moon.
Although the Empress did not come to congratulate her, the members of the Imperial Family and the Crown Prince came to celebrate this little county head’s full moon. It was not an exaggeration to say that she was doted on by thousands of people throughout her life.
..
As the mid-autumn Festival approached, there was still no news of the palace banquet from the palace. Usually, the mid-autumn Palace banquet was an extremely important day, not to mention that the mid-autumn Festival was the Little Crown Prince’s birthday banquet.
In previous years, it was always noon for Lu Xi’s birthday, and at night, it was the mid-autumn Palace banquet.
The last time on the Empress’s birthday, there was no birthday banquet held in the palace, nor did they let the imperial concubines enter the palace to pay their respects.
There was no news about the mid-autumn Palace banquet either. There were already rumors that the empress and the emperor were not on good terms after the longevity banquet, which made everyone feel that the rumors were true.
In the Hong family.
When Ye Suxin heard the words from the Marquis’wife, she shook her head repeatedly and said, “Aunt, how can you let me marry the Marquis of Jingwu?
My cousin is going to marry the heir of the Marquis of Jingwu next year. I’m her cousin, but I’m going to marry the Marquis of Jingwu as his wife and be her mother-in-law in the future?
How could old Madam Sun say something like this, which has messed up the rules and ethics? How could you agree to it?”
Mother ye also said, “Eldest sister, among the three of us sisters, you’re the High and Mighty Marquis’wife. My younger sister is now the Imperial Teacher’s wife. Only My Ye family has fallen. But even so, you can’t look down on my family’s suxin!”
The Marquis of Wu an’s wife said, “Second sister, the position of the Marquis’wife is so good. If it’s not good, Qiao Ruoyi won’t be willing to marry it!”
Ye suxin sneered, “That’s because Qiao Ruoyi is a concubine. How can the daughter of a concubine be compared to a legitimate daughter like me? Moreover, even though she’s married into the Marquise of Jing Wu, it’s still a step-by-step house filling.
A step-by-step house filling is a concubine ceremony in front of the official wife’s memorial tablet. Qiao ruoyi, a concubine’s daughter, is willing to be a concubine. I’m Not Willing!”
The Marquise of Wu an said, “Then how can a step-by-step house be a concubine? She’s also a legitimate wife.”
Madam Hong said, “Second sister, Su Xin, I think what eldest sister said makes sense. The position of the wife of Marquis Jing Wu is also a first-class wife. Many young ladies want to marry someone, but old madam sun doesn’t like them. Old Madam Sun’s heart aches for her grandson, so she let Su Xin be the wife of a Marquis.”
Ye Su Xin felt extremely disgusted. “Little aunt, you haven’t become the emperor’s mother-in-law yet. Our Ye family is in this state because of you!
“I originally thought that if I could marry cousin, I would help cousin enter the palace as a concubine. Now that you and Aunt Look Down on me, I’ll let it Go!”
Madam Hong asked, “You can let Qifeng enter the palace as a concubine? Are you joking?”
Ye suxin said, “Of course I’m not joking. Moreover, I know that the Empress is in cahoots with the man outside. The Empress is already on bad terms with him. It’s only ten days before the mid-autumn Festival and there’s no news of the palace banquet. It only means that the empress has already fallen out of favor.
“However, His Majesty doesn’t dare to depose the Empress due to the power of the Qiao family, nor does he dare to take in a concubine into the palace. If I present evidence of the Empress having an affair with the man outside, His Majesty will definitely depose the Empress and allow cousin Qifeng to become his concubine.”
Madam Hong’s eyes lit up, and the marquis’wife asked, “Suxin, do you really have evidence?”
Ye suxin nodded and said, “Of course I have evidence. It’s just that both of my aunts want me to marry Marquis Jingwu to fill up the room, so please forgive me for letting this go.”
How could ye Suxin not know what the Marquis’wife was thinking? She was afraid that her daughter would meet a powerful young step-in-law and plead guilty when she married him.
But why did she, Ye suxin, want to become cousin’s mother-in-law from her cousin at such a young age?
Madam Hong said, “Xin ‘er, the two of us are only giving you suggestions. There’s no need for you to take it to heart. This marriage between you and Yinglong will be decided by me. Quickly take out that evidence?”
Ye suxin smiled and said, “Little aunt, the evidence is in your hands. Do you still remember the portrait of the Empress when she was young that fell from cousin’s sleeve that day? There was a Yun character written on the portrait.
It turned out that the Yun character was Xie Yun’s Yun, and Xie Yun was not a woman. He did not die either. It turned out that he was a man, and he was also the head of the Xie family who had become famous in Chang ‘an recently!”
Madam Hong asked, “Is this true?”
“I heard from Xie Yun’s maidservant that it is absolutely true. The empress and Xie Yun came from Lin ‘an together. After Xie Yun came to Chang ‘an, she has always been deeply in love with the Empress as a woman. She is actually a man!”
Ye suxin said, “Moreover, the Empress has never been on good terms with him. As long as His Majesty believes in this matter, the Empress will be finished. The Hong family and the Marquis Mansion helped his majesty depose the Empress and punish the Qiao family. In the future, they will definitely be highly valued by his majesty!”
