Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Qiao Ergou widened his eyes. “Qiao Jinniang, are you kidding me? If this gigolo is the crown prince, I am the emperor!”

Lu Chen said coldly, “No one in this world has the courage to pretend to be me. Do you know what the crime is to pretend to be the crown prince?”

Qiao Ergou knelt on the ground with a thud. “Your Royal Highness, we, we don’t know that you are the Crown Prince, but even if you are the Crown Prince, you have to be reasonable!

“Qiao Yu is a member of our Qiao family, and Myriad Taste is the property of the Qiao family. How can it be given to an outsider?”

“Besides, Qiao Jinniang is rich now and she simply ignored us. It’s not justified, right? Since you are the Crown Prince, you should at least make me a prefect, right?”

Qiao Jinniang was disgusted by these people.

Lu Chen said to one of his secret guards, “Put them in jail and interrogate them about that divorce letter!”

Lu Chen had found out that the divorce letter didn’t come from Chang’an, so it could only be written by someone from Lin’an. Only the disgusting Qiao family members might do this.

“You pretended to be me, which is a felony. You’d better confess quickly if you don’t want to be beheaded!”

Qiao Ergou was stunned and looked at his son-in-law, who had already fainted in fright.

Qiao Ergou knelt down and said, “Your Royal Highness, we didn’t know that you were the Crown Prince at the time. The divorce letter was written by my son-in-law imitating your handwriting. We just wanted to get back the Myriad Taste that we deserve.”

Qiao Jinniang: “…”

Lu Chen whispered in her ear. “Now you believe me? How could I possibly divorce you?”

Qiao Jinniang coughed and said to Qiao Ergou, “According to Daddy’s last words, Myriad Taste shall never be handed over to you. How did Myriad Taste become yours?”

“But daughter!”Qiao are biological Ergouyournot said,father’syou

Qiao Jinniang said, “My father’s biological daughter is the wife of the next Duke Qin. Do you dare to snatch Myriad Taste from her?”

Aunt Qiao said to Qiao Ergou, “Cousin, Qiao Jinniang has never obeyed us ever since she was a child. It is a waste of time to argue with her here. Why don’t we go to Qiao Yu’s biological daughter?

“Webenefits!” usto her She _bloodsomehasaregiverelatives.all

‘When Qiao Jinniang heard this, she sneered. “You guys have a good plan indeed, but unfortunately you will be punished severely for imitating the Crown Prince’s handwriting. You want to see my sister? Nice try! But if I were you, I would hurry back and escape to Lin’an!”

Qiao Ergou and the others came all the way here for benefits. They were certainly unwilling to leave before they got what they wanted.

Qiao Jinniang laughed. “I didn’t even care about my reputation when I was in Lin’an, let alone now! Besides, in terms of reputation, I can invite my neighbors in Lin’an City to come to tell the truth.”

Qiao Ergou’s youngest daughter said to him, “Dad, forget it. Now that Sister is the daughter of a duke, it will get us nowhere to go against her.”

What benefits could they get to make trouble now? Qiao Jinniang was a duke’s daughter now and her husband was the Crown Prince. Their old tricks wouldn’t work here.

She had to work out a good way!

Then, Qiao Ergou and his party left, ignoring his son-in-law who had fainted in fright. After a while, Xiucai Li woke up with wetted pants.

“Ljust wanted to take Myriad Taste back. It was for Sister Jinniang’s own good. Wouldn’t it be a better choice for her to marry the prefect’s son as a concubine? It was much better than being the shopkeeper of a restaurant.

“If I had known that you are the Crown Prince, I wouldn’t have dared to do that no matter what!”

Lu Chen said to his secret guard, “Hand him over to the Governor of Chang’an, imprison him for three years, and annul his title as ‘Xiucai’. He won’t be allowed to participate in the imperial examinations in this life.”

After Xiucai Li was taken away, Lu Chen looked at Qiao Jinniang. “Now you know you have mistaken me?”

Qiao Jinniang was so angry at the time that she didn’t even notice that the divorce letter was very suspicious. Immediately after the divorce letter reached her, the Qiao family and the prefect’s son had come.

Lu Chen hugged Qiao Jinniang in his arms and said, “Can you trust me more in the future? You and I have been married for three years. How could I be willing to divorce you?”

Lu Chen smiled. It was not easy to make Qiao Jinniang bow her head and say sorry!

Duchess Qin looked at the gifts in the yard, held Qin Miaomiao’s hand and said happily, “Miaomiao, you’re really Mother’s good daughter. Now I’d like to see what your concubine-bom sisters can do!

“The Lin family has repeatedly asked to break off the marriage contract. We should have agreed… But His Royal Highness chose to go against his own sister to prove your innocence. He must have a crush on you!”

“I’s not nonsense! It’s said that the Crown Prince testified for you. If it weren’t for him, you would have still been suffering all the grievances! It can be seen how much he loves you

But hearing Duchess Qin’s words, she was a bit angry. Qiao Jinniang risked offending the royal family to help Qin Miaomiao, but Duchess Qin coveted Jinniang’s husband?
