After rebirth, the scumbag prince only wants to pamper his wife every day

Chapter 12: It’s not okay to let the princess suffer

According to Qi Heng and Lin Huaian's plan, it would be best if He Qingchen didn't wake up.

By that time, whether the marriage was replaced by another marriage or not would not be so important.

With them mediating, His Majesty would not be too angry. After all, a living person is more important than a dead son who has been unfavored since childhood and has no further value.

Although the Lin family used a concubine's daughter as a substitute for marriage, the concubine still had to be buried alive with the deceased.

It will do no one any good if we hold on to it.

Your Majesty, please turn a blind eye and this matter will be over.

If the concubine who was married off as a substitute is lucky enough to get married, she will be successful in bringing good luck, and there will be no need to be afraid even if He Qingchen wakes up.

The bride's replacement marriage was a foregone conclusion, and the success of the wedding was also a fact.

They then spread some stories among the people, portraying the concubine's daughter as a "blessed person", letting everyone know that it was this concubine's daughter who accidentally saved the unconscious Prince Yan.

By then.

He Qingchen was overwhelmed by the public opinion, and the matter had already happened, so even if he was angry, he couldn't do anything.

You can only hold this matter high and put it low.

At least, it's not like the Yue family saved him out of necessity and then turned against the Lin family, right?

As long as he doesn't pursue the matter, His Majesty can get away with it.

Last night, when they discussed it overnight, they thought of many results, but they never expected it to be like this now. Before they had time to plan anything, they were brought here to ask for an explanation.

He Qingchen saw that they seemed to be hesitant to speak. He opened his mouth several times but didn't know how to explain, so he sneered.

He raised his hand, gently smoothed his wrinkled sleeves, and continued slowly: "The princess said that because the dowry was given to that concubine, she had nothing and had no confidence to marry into the palace. She was afraid that the prince would not like it, and even more afraid of being laughed at by outsiders. She didn't know how to live in the future.

It took me half the night to finally coax the princess into submission.

I wonder if my father-in-law and mother-in-law have anything to say about this?

It was okay that the princess was bullied by a little concubine in the Lin family before.

Now even the dowry can be snatched away by a little concubine. I would like to ask, Lord Lin, Madam Lin, is this how you treat your own daughter, and how you treat me perfunctorily?

If you don’t know, you might think that little concubine’s daughter is your legitimate daughter, and my princess is just an unpopular concubine’s daughter.

Today, the king invites you here, firstly, to hear what Lord Lin and Madam Lin have to say, and secondly, to ask the royal uncles and aunts to be witnesses together.

The princess' dowry was clearly brought into the Prince Yan's mansion in full view of everyone, so why does the princess still keep saying that she has nothing and no dowry?

Those dowry boxes were carried directly here and stored after the wedding banquet yesterday. They have never been moved.

I would also like to ask the Emperor's uncle and aunt to come with you to examine this carefully and serve as witnesses for the king and the princess, so as to avoid any problems arising from the dowry in the future.

This prince does not care about the small amount of money given by Lord Lin’s mansion, but I cannot let the princess suffer any injustice because of this matter.

If Lord Lin and Madam Lin cannot come up with a reasonable explanation, don't blame me for personally asking your doted little concubine how capable she is to be able to coax her father and mother to the point of ignoring her own legitimate daughter.

Or, do you want to ask His Majesty in person if there is such a truth in this world?"

At the end of his words, his voice became deeper and deeper, and even every word he said was a threat.

"How is this possible? Everyone in the capital knows that Madam Lin loves her legitimate daughter like the apple of her eye. How could she do such a ridiculous thing for a mere concubine's daughter..."

Princess Chong'an didn't think too much about it, she just thought it was a bit absurd.

Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Princess Jianning: "Qingchen, what do you mean by this? The Lin family was reluctant to part with their legitimate daughter, so they found a concubine's daughter from the countryside to marry into the palace in place of Lin Qingran, right?"

Ever since she entered the mansion, she has been paying attention to He Qingchen's movements.

In her opinion, He Qingchen has a cold personality, one could even say he is indifferent and rude, as if he looks down on everything and doesn't want to talk to anyone, but she knows that is directed to outsiders.

Actually not.

He is a man who values ​​friendship and loyalty, and can clearly distinguish between gratitude and resentment.

In theory, it was the daughter of the Lin family who saved him. He should not and would not have called his parents-in-law and uncle over like this, and was so aggressive, even using his power to intimidate them and not give in at all.

This matter is definitely not as simple as he said.

She went over what He Qingchen had just said carefully, and her thoughtful eyes swept over everyone, finally stopping on the still sealed dowry boxes.

In a moment, she figured out the key point here.

Princess Jianning had met the eldest daughter of the Lin family several times at palace banquets.

If she remembered correctly, every time Lin Qingran attended a palace banquet, her eyes would be glued to Prince Jin.

If she guessed correctly, the eldest daughter of the Lin family was probably devotedly in love with Prince Jin and was unwilling to marry He Qingchen, a dying man, to bring good luck. She was even more afraid that He Qingchen would not survive and would have to be buried alive with her, so she simply made some trouble.

For example, hanging oneself.

For example, he quietly escaped from the Lin family and hid somewhere.

This forced the Lin family to find a concubine's daughter to marry instead.

As for the dowry...

Mrs. Lin was stupid to begin with. She probably still coveted those material possessions and was unwilling to give the dowry for her own daughter to that concubine's daughter, so she withheld all the dowry.

And He Qingchen...

Princess Jianning's gaze fell steadily on He Qingchen.

She lowered her eyes and thought about it, and guessed something.

He was afraid that when he woke up last night, the concubine's daughter confessed everything to him. Qingchen made such a fuss today to force the Lin family to admit that the one who married into the palace was the legitimate daughter, and the one who caused trouble was the concubine's daughter.

As for the dowry, he wanted to force them to pay back all the dowry they owed to this concubine.

He wants to protect that concubine's daughter?

Princess Jianning quickly figured out all of He Qingchen's intentions. She hurriedly interrupted Princess Chong'an's suspicions and asked a question in an almost certain tone.

Lin Huaian, Qi Heng and others froze in silence.

Princess Jianning was furious: "So, you, the Lin family and the Qi family, all think that Prince Yan is going to die, and if you marry a legitimate daughter into the palace, you will lose both your wife and your money if you are not careful, so you just deduct the dowry?"
