After rebirth, the scumbag prince only wants to pamper his wife every day
Chapter 14 Could it be that it’s not even on the Lin family’s genealogy?
Qi Heng's face darkened as he refused coldly, "No need, open it."
Mrs. Lin's expression suddenly tightened. She clutched the corner of her clothes tightly with her hands and dared not utter a word. Cold sweat seeped out of her body little by little. She raised her hand and wiped the moisture from her forehead with a handkerchief.
He Qingchen glanced at her coldly, then turned away.
Just in time to meet Prince Chong'an and the two princesses, he suppressed the coldness in his eyes, and when he saw them nod slightly, he immediately signaled to Ye Feng and Wang Huan: "Open it, so that the uncle and aunt can see it clearly."
The two nodded and immediately worked together to open one of the dowry boxes.
What wafted towards me was the peculiar earthy smell of stones falling into the ground. The box that should have been filled with dowry items no longer had the luxurious aura of jewels and gems. Instead, the box looked empty and dark.
Even Wang Huan, who had already known what was going on, felt shocked like never before.
He had seen absurd things before, but he had never seen anything as absurd as this.
No wonder the prince was so persistent that he invited his parents-in-law and the prince to the wedding on the first day. Who could bear this?
Even though the prince is not favored by His Majesty, he is not a soft persimmon who can be bullied!
The Lin family...this is really going too far!
Thinking of this, Wang Huan's expression turned cold. He looked at Lin Huaian and his wife expressionlessly: "Prince Chong'an, Princess, please look, this is the 'dowry' that Lord Lin prepared for our princess."
He said the word 'dowry' with gnashing teeth.
Ye Feng's face also looked very bad. After opening the box, he stood back beside He Qingchen, without saying a word, staring at Lin Huaian and his wife hatefully, with disgust in his eyes that he could hardly suppress.
I've seen disgusting people, but I've never seen one as disgusting as this.
Ye Feng was secretly complaining in his heart.
No wonder the prince reminded him that the princess’s surname was Shen. Was this where the relationship problem lay?
The princess is not a daughter of the Lin family.
No, that can't be said. All we can say is that the princess was left in the countryside by Lin Huaian and was raised there. Even her surname is not that of a concubine's daughter following the Lin family.
Could it be that the princess is not even included in the Lin family's genealogy?
Giving birth to a child but not raising it is disgusting enough.
Lord Lin actually pushed his abandoned and uneducated concubine's daughter to be used as a tool at this time?
You know, if the wedding fails, they can put all the blame on the princess, saying, for example, that she coveted the glory of the palace, and when she was about to get on the bridal sedan, she knocked out her elder sister, got on the sedan instead of her, and let the prince down.
By then, the Qi family will negotiate again, and someone in the palace will persuade His Majesty.
Wasn't it the princess who was the only one who died?
Even if the wedding is successful and the prince wakes up, he will be disgusted for the rest of his life by the empty dowry box and a vulgar little concubine's daughter from the countryside, and the princess' situation will not be any better.
They might even do some other weird things under the pretext of doing good for the princess.
Ye Feng frowned, his mind running wild with countless guesses flashing through his mind.
I felt a little more pity and sadness for the princess whom I had yet to meet. It was the princess's fate to have such a father and such a stepmother. However, this fate was really not good.
However, the prince is like this now, could it be that he doesn't care about the princess?
Ye Feng couldn't help but stare at He Qingchen.
Prince Chong'an and his companions did not hesitate. They took a few steps closer, stretched their necks, and leaned forward to take a look at the dowry box. After seeing clearly what was inside, they could no longer maintain the indifference on their faces.
They gritted their teeth and stared at Lin Huaian and his wife in a speechless manner.
Prince Chong'an, in particular, seemed to want to say something but couldn't utter a single word.
There was nothing else in the box except for a few stones the size of horse stools at the bottom. They looked quite heavy, but the coldness from the stones still made people shiver inevitably.
One side of the stone was bright white, while the other side was covered with green moss and moist mud.
It can be seen that these stones were found from some damp place and were hastily placed in the box without even time to be cleaned up.
Prince Chong'an had a dark face and said nothing.
Princess Chong'an could no longer suppress her emotions. She glanced at Lin Huaian coldly and said, "Lord Lin, is this the dowry for your Lin family's daughter? It's really... different, very, special, isn't it?"
Anyone could hear that Princess Chong'an's words were full of sarcasm.
Lin Huaian felt cold all over and looked at Princess Chong'an stiffly. He approached the box step by step, wanting to see what was inside that made them look like that.
Qi Heng stood aside with a puzzled look on his face, not saying a word.
"Husband, don't look..." Mrs. Lin pulled his hand, with a hint of pleading in her eyes.
Lin Huaian glanced at her, took her hand away forcefully, and looked away with disgust.
When he saw the stones in the box, his pupils suddenly shrank, his head was buzzing, and his face was so ugly that it could not be described. He could not hide his embarrassment and confusion.
The thought of divorcing his wife quietly crossed his mind.
This was the first time he regretted it so much.
I regret leaving all my children to her to raise.
As a result, she raised a rebellious girl who was so reckless that she dared to disobey the emperor, escape from her marriage and leave home, causing so much trouble for the family.
I also regretted that over the years, I had given in to this idiot again and again for the sake of power and status, so that now she is becoming more and more confused and stupid, so stupid that she can't even understand what is the most important thing.
He originally thought that Qi was just withholding some of the dowry, or replacing the original items with some cheap things.
After all, he was also watching when the dowry went out.
The dowry box looked quite heavy.
How could he have imagined that the things in the box were not deducted or replaced with cheap items, but were directly replaced with stones. What was she thinking? Was she afraid that the Lin and Qi families would not die fast enough?
Even if Prince Yan is not favored, he is still a prince.
Can you fool people like this?
The concubine's daughter was forced to marry off as a substitute, so would she still do such a despicable thing for these yellow and white things?
Lin Huaian felt extremely resentful.
But they still have to maintain the dignity of the Lin family and the Qi family. These problems are not unsolvable. If there is a mistake in the dowry, just make up for it. This idiot, he will not replace all the dowry with stones, right?
There was no other way, he could only hope that Mrs. Lin had only exchanged a small part to convince himself.
He took a deep breath and turned to He Qingchen.
Facing the Prince of Yan, who should have called him father-in-law but was now aggressive, he mumbled the words of apology in his throat again and again. He opened his mouth several times but couldn't even say "I'm sorry".
Seeing this, He Qingchen turned his eyes away expressionlessly.
Qi Heng didn't dare to remain silent at this moment: "Well, Your Majesty, it was indeed my sister who did something unkind. I will definitely talk to her about it when I go back.
However, today is your wedding day with the princess, and they are Qingran's parents after all, so it's not appropriate to make things too awkward.
It's just some yellow and white stuff. I will let them complete the things as soon as possible. Now, let them go back first, how about that?"
