Chapter 755: Marrying a Shrew, the Cao Family Regrets
At noon, several people dressed as attendants returned to the princess's residence, holding some large and small objects in their hands.
The people in the Princess's Residence only sent a few people to arrange the wedding banquet. The entire Princess's Residence did not care much about Wu Mingwei's marriage and was just doing it to get by. However, the wedding banquet was not so shabby that it would lose face for the Princess's Residence.
Princess Gaoyang was mad at Wu Mingwei, and she also hated Yun Mujiu extremely. Under the double anger, she was so angry that she was able to get up from the bed and walk a few steps slowly.
Clearly that day the Emperor asked Yun Mujiu to enter the palace so that he could cause trouble for her, but unexpectedly she let Yun Mujiu escape!
Moreover, these days, the Queen Mother's health has gradually improved under Yun Mujiu's diagnosis and treatment. Yun Mujiu has established her position in the capital and the palace with her good medical skills! How can she find an opportunity to retaliate against Yun Mujiu in the future!
A servant reported: "Princess, we are back from purchasing supplies."
"Okay." Princess Gaoyang sneered and glared at the servants, saying, "Prepare everything for the wedding banquet for me. Her marriage is not important, but we must not lose face for it!"
She had been recovering from her injuries during this period, hoping to gather her strength and find new opportunities to seek forgiveness from her brother. At first, she really regretted being an enemy of Yun Mujiu, but then she changed her mind and thought that maybe she still had a chance to win again.
Princess Gaoyang stubbornly believed that her brother was giving her a chance by not executing her. As long as she survived, she would have a chance to win back her dignity.
Little did she know that the reason she was not executed was because she had royal blood in her body, and the crime she committed was indeed not serious enough to be executed immediately. But if she continued to be stubborn, her death would soon come.
Princess Gaoyang had been domineering all her life, so of course she didn't know how to stop losses in time. So she took the path she wanted step by step, but she didn't know that it was a path to death.
"Princess, do I need to report the wedding banquet to Prince Consort Cao?" the servant asked carefully.
"Report it. And tell the Cao family by the way." Princess Gaoyang said calmly. Now that she is recovering from her injuries, it stands to reason that the Cao family should be responsible for all matters in the mansion, big or small.
However, she wanted to take advantage of the wedding banquet to make some noise, so she decided to participate in the preparations herself!
The maid looked at Princess Gaoyang's ferocious face and couldn't help but feel a little scared. The princess must have some bad thoughts, but as a maid, she couldn't persuade her any more. She just hoped that nothing would happen to her.
Princess Gaoyang sneered, her pale lips full of pride. On the one hand, she still had a chance to make a comeback. As long as she could please her brother, why not worry about her good life in the future? What if she went to the temple to pray? One day, she would come back again.
On the other hand, as long as she starts to take action, such as holding a wedding banquet in the Princess's Mansion, she will have the opportunity to take revenge on those she hates.
The servant was ordered to leave and quickly reported the news to Prince Consort Cao.
Prince Consort Cao frowned and waved for the servants to leave. He turned around and looked at his father, mother, sister, brother, and sister-in-law.
"Father, Mother, what do you think?"
The head of the Cao family said in a serious tone: "Since the emperor has given the order, we must hold the wedding banquet. The sooner it is done, the sooner we can put the heavy stone in our hearts down."
The emperor ordered them not to delay too much. Moreover, Miss Wu and Wang Gou were both from their house. These two people had offended the Yewang Mansion, and the Cao family was eager to cut off their relationship with them immediately.
Old Mrs. Cao coughed slightly, looking dissatisfied.
"Bang!" The sound of a crutch hoeing the ground came.
"We shouldn't have married Princess Gao Yang in the first place, otherwise how could we end up in this dilemma now?"
After Mrs. Cao finished her words, she gasped for air. She had always been in poor health, and because of Princess Gaoyang's scandals, she was even more angry and her condition worsened.
The Cao family is upright, how could they marry someone with such bad deeds as Princess Gaoyang! Princess Gaoyang is not only chaotic and uncivilized in private, but also vicious and persecutes innocent people, including Princess Ye. Besides, who are Prince Ye and Princess Ye? Not only the Cao family, but also the entire Princess's residence cannot afford to offend them!
The head of the Cao family quickly supported Old Lady Cao and advised: "Old lady, don't get angry, your health is the most important thing."
"Ah! I know that we shouldn't get angry, but Princess Gaoyang has dragged down us old people, and she is also dragging down Hanmo!" Old Mrs. Cao coughed a few times and said to Prince Consort Cao unwillingly: "You know, Hanmo should have had a bright future, but it was ruined because he became a prince consort!"
The head of the Cao family froze. What his wife said made sense, and he had no way to refute it. He had two sons and a daughter. Cao Hanmo was the smartest and most outstanding child, but unfortunately, because he became a son-in-law, he was restricted.
Now that Princess Gaoyang's evil deeds have been exposed, she might even kill their family in the future. His eldest son, Cao Mohan, whom he values the most, has also had his life completely destroyed by Princess Gaoyang!
"Mother, now that things have come to this, we have no choice." Prince Consort Cao supported Old Lady Cao's shoulders, "Don't worry, your son will protect the Cao family."
"Second brother, you often stay with Princess Gaoyang, so you should be more careful." Cao's eyebrows were worried, and her gentle face showed entanglement. She advised: "As for the princess's matter, it's good for you to know it and us to know it. Now is not the time to confront the princess."
"Don't worry, sister. I understand everything." Prince Consort Cao replied. Someone secretly sent evidence of Princess Gaoyang's bad behavior. The Cao family knew about it, but they couldn't let the princess find out that they had discovered her true face.
Cao Sanye was a straightforward person. He said dissatisfiedly, "Brother, the princess keeps doing bad things and has kept many male lovers in private."
"Brother - are you sure she was really your savior?"
Doesn’t Princess Gaoyang look like a typical shrew?
Mr. Cao San wanted to continue talking about Prince Consort Cao's past, but was quickly stopped by his wife and parents.
Cao even shouted, "Third brother, be careful with your words!"
To be honest, even if Princess Gaoyang was not my second brother's savior, the imperial decree had already been issued that my second brother had to become Princess Gaoyang's consort.
Prince Consort Cao was choking and after a while, he slowly exhaled.
When the imperial decree for marriage was issued, he had thought about committing suicide...
But he was not the only one in the Cao family, and for the sake of his brothers and sisters, he could not disobey the order. But once he married Princess Gaoyang, he would have violated his original intention as a child.
Fortunately, he later found out that Princess Gao Yang was the one who saved him. Now it seems that something is getting wrong...
Prince Consort Cao's face was pale, and he couldn't help shivering a few times as he held Old Lady Cao's hand.
The expressions of Old Lady Cao and others became a little strange. They had more or less noticed the subtle emotional changes between Prince Consort Cao and Princess Gaoyang, but what could a civil servant family of theirs do under the suppression of imperial power?
The truth is not something they can find out just because they want to, nor is it something they can easily find out.
Prince Consort Cao's family was in a state of mixed emotions, filled with deep regret.
What they didn't know was that a kind-hearted person had already done the investigation for them. And that kind-hearted person was Yun Mujiu and Ye Xiaohan, who led their subordinates to try to find out the truth about the past that had been sealed for more than 30 years...
