Chapter 212 The Prince and Cui Yingqiu
There have been revelries every night in the Prince's Mansion recently, and the Prince is in a very good mood.
At this moment, a woman wearing gauze was dancing gracefully in the hall. Upon closer inspection, who else could it be but Cui Yingqiu?
After Cui Yingqiu was demoted to a courtesan, she was originally a lady from a wealthy family. She was disobedient at first, but after being severely punished by the brothel owner several times, she had to give in.
Now that County Magistrate Cui is dead and Mrs. Cui has become a servant, Cui Yingqiu has since controlled her temper as a lady from a wealthy family and has seriously learned some of the skills of an official prostitute.
Cui Yingqiu was originally beautiful and had been able to read and write since childhood. She was proficient in playing the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she quickly made a name for herself in the teaching office.
The madam tailored a course for her, and now she is an excellent dancer. She was soon promoted by the madam to receive guests.
The prince met Cui Yingqiu at a banquet. Cui Yingqiu had left a deep impression on him in the dungeon of Yinbai County. Now, he found her even more charming, so he kept Cui Yingqiu that day.
Cui Yingqiu's face was calm, but her heart was turbulent. Instead of dealing with different men every day, why not seize the opportunity and hold on to the prince.
Cui Yingqiu used all her tricks to deal with the prince.
Soon, the prince summoned Cui Yingqiu to his palace every few days.
Seeing that Cui Yingqiu was favored by the prince, the madam treated Cui Yingqiu much better and no longer dared to arrange for Cui Yingqiu to receive other guests. Cui Yingqiu's life finally became a little better.
At this moment, Cui Yingqiu was wearing a red gauze skirt and dancing gracefully in the hall. The prince was watching her intently with a wine glass in his hand.
Cui Yingqiu bit a flower in her mouth, glanced back, and was so charming that even the prince's soul was hooked away.
Cui Yingqiu slowly moved towards the prince, then sat down on his thighs, took the wine glass from his hand, and handed it to his mouth.
The prince rubbed her slender waist, which was so thin that it could be held in one hand, and drank the wine from her hand.
Cui Yingqiu took another red fruit from the plate, put it in her mouth, and moved closer to the prince. The prince lowered his head, put the fruit in his mouth, and soon the juice spread to the corners of their mouths.
The prince picked up Cui Yingqiu and carried her into the inner room, and soon she heard moans from inside the room.
Afterwards, Cui Yingqiu leaned against the prince's chest, pointing her finger at his bare chest, "Your Highness, I beg you for a favor."
The prince was now feeling refreshed both physically and mentally, so of course he wanted to do anything. "Tell me about it."
Cui Yingqiu came closer and raised her head. "My mother is still washing clothes in such a cold weather. Could you please ask the prince to give my mother a lighter job? She is my only relative in this world. I can't bear it."
The prince touched Cui Yingqiu's hair, feeling a little sorry. He knew that she had been pampered since she was a child. She had been by his side for so long but had never made any requests. It was often these requests that won his heart. "This is a small matter. I will arrange for someone to take care of it in a moment."
Cui Yingqiu's eyes flashed with surprise, and she rushed towards the prince, "Thank you, Your Highness."
Then Cui Yingqiu slid down the prince's body like a snake, and finally sank into the brocade quilt. Soon the prince began to groan.
Cui Yingqiu was on his way to the Muslim Temple and stopped his carriage when he passed by a shop.
She told the driver, "Wait here for me. I'll go in and buy something and then come back."
Not long after Cui Yingqiu entered the store, there were other customers. Cui Yingqiu looked around casually and a maid passed by her and handed her a note.
Cui Yingqiu folded the note tightly, bought some things in the store and returned to the carriage.
After returning to the Jiaosifang, he quietly opened the note, read it, and then burned it to ashes.
In Mingzhou, Princess Dou looked at the letter in her hand, her expression becoming increasingly worse.
At this time, Princess Changning and Dou Xiumin walked in from outside. "Mother, did my brother send a letter? Let me see it."
Then he noticed that Princess Dou looked unhappy.
Princess Dou put away the letter and had no intention of giving it to Princess Changning. She simply asked, "Do you know Jiang Yutong in Yinbai County?"
Chang Ning nodded, "I've met her a few times. Roufufang is hers. And when Yinbai County fell, it was she who led the people to guard the city gate."
Dou Xiumin was a little confused. Why did Princess Dou ask about Jiang Yutong for no reason? She asked cautiously, "Aunt, why did you ask about Jiang Yutong? What happened to my cousin?"
Princess Dou slammed the table heavily, "The Queen Mother has granted your brother and Jiang Yutong a marriage."
Princess Changning and Dou Xiumin were both shocked, especially Dou Xiumin, whose heart twitched so violently that her handkerchief was about to be pulled off.
"How could that be? Jiang Yutong is divorced."
Princess Dou was shocked when she heard this, "What? A divorced daughter?"
Princess Dou immediately became restless. She didn't know that Jiang Yutong had been divorced before, but she was dissatisfied with the Queen Mother's arrangement for Xiao Yifeng's marriage. She had already made arrangements for Xiao Yifeng's marriage. She knew that the Emperor would not let Xiao Yifeng marry the daughter of a wealthy family in the capital, but there were also many young ladies from wealthy families in Mingzhou, including Dou Xiumin.
Although the Dou family is now in decline, Dou Xiumin can still be a concubine.
"Pack your things, we're going to Beijing right away."
Princess Changning spoke up, "Mother, it might not be a good idea for us to enter the capital without an imperial edict."
Princess Dou's face darkened even more. "My son is getting engaged, so why can't I come to the capital? For so many years, the current emperor's suspicion has trapped us in the Underworld. Besides, how can a woman like me, coming to the capital, steal his throne?"
Princess Changning stopped him loudly, "Mother, be careful with your words."
Princess Dou snorted. She was originally from a general's mansion and had a fierce personality since childhood, but she had restrained herself a lot over the years.
"Go pack your things and come with me to the capital. I'm sending an urgent letter to the capital."
Changning knew that she couldn't stop Princess Dou, so she could only do as she was told. She would go with her, at least she could stop her mother.
However, Changning was not so opposed to the marriage between her brother and Jiang Yutong. She still liked Jiang Yutong very much.
Soon, Xiao Yifeng received the news that Princess Dou had arrived in Beijing, as well as a letter from Changning, which said, "Brother, Mother is a little angry about your marriage to Miss Jiang. Be prepared."
At the same time, the palace also received a memorial from Mingzhou, and the emperor also knew that Princess Dou had entered the capital.
Xiao Yifeng had a headache. He knew what his mother was thinking. He was afraid that Princess Dou would cause trouble for Jiang Yutong when she came to the capital. Jiang Yutong, who didn't have much feelings for him to begin with, would be dismissed by his mother with just a few words.
Jiang Yutong didn't know at the moment that her future mother-in-law was going to Beijing. She was anxious at the moment. Just now, the servant of the Du Mansion came to the door and asked if Du Xiaoyao had been there.
It turned out that Du Xiaoyao had a quarrel with the Du family and ran away from home in anger.
