My Crown Prince Consort Is a Firecracker! - Chapter 2553

2553 Cause
“This Chen Baojia is Empress Dowager Chen’s grandniece.” The Kang Prince Consort asked confusedly, “When did you clash with Chen Baojia? Empress Dowager Chen is rather overprotective of her people.”

She wasn’t afraid even if Empress Dowager Chen was overprotective. That Chen Baojia wasn’t in the right anyway.

Rather, it was worth pondering about why she, a mere daughter of the Chen Clan, could direct the imperial kitchen’s Junior Eunuch Li.

It was evident that Li Hongquan should be one of the Empress Dowager’s people.

Qiao Mu furrowed her brows. She found it quite weird.

She had never met Chen Baojia, and they didn’t have any conflict of interest. Why did the latter suddenly try to feel her out?

Wasn’t this point very worth considering?
Just as this question popped up, she heard Kang Prince Consort say with a sigh, “Sigh, it is no wonder that this miss from the Chen Clan would target you. She and the Zhongli Clan’s second young lady had dragged out their stay in the Eastern Palace until the last moment when their families had no choice but to take them away. Second Young Lady Zhongli and this Young Lady Chen have always thought themselves to be very special.”

Qiao Mu looked at the Kang Prince Consort curiously. A bad premonition rose in her heart.

“Imperial Aunt, what do you mean? You are saying that this Chen Baojia and that Zhongli Zhiwei had previously been living in the Eastern Palace, the crown prince’s estate??”

The Kang Prince Consort: …

Oh, sh*t! Was she not supposed to say that?

“Ah, haha!” The Kang Prince Consort laughed awkwardly and wanted to cover up for Mo Lian. “Ah, what Eastern Palace and crown prince’s estate. You probably heard wrong.”

“Imperial Aunt.” The little fellow’s stern expression made the Kang Prince Consort melt from cuteness.

“Okay, okay. Imperial Aunt will tell you everything. Don’t be anxious! This isn’t a big deal. Our Mo Lian also took care of everything beforehand.”

The Kang Prince Consort immediately surrendered. She expressed she had no resistance against cuteness!

As a result, the Kang Prince Consort filled the young crown prince consort in on the details the entire way back.

She started from when Madam Guo’an started sending beauties. Then, she got to when Third Fu posted a notice in the Central Plaza for all the officials to take their noble ladies back.

At last, she recounted how Zhongli Zhiwei and Chen Baojia had dragged it out in the crown prince’s estate for seven days. By the time Great General Zhongli rushed there, Young Sir Third Fu had nearly finished her off since she had gone over the time limit.

The Kang Prince Consort was in a gossiping mood and shared multiple versions of the story that had spread through the capital.

Such as the august crown prince was unreasonable, and his reputation for being heartless had preceded his return to the Divine Province.

Such as they were waiting for Young Lady Chen to make a comeback and claim a spot in the crown prince’s estate.

At that time, such nonsensical gossip had spread throughout the capital for nearly two months.

Qiao Mu: !

There had been such an incident?

Mo Lian hadn’t even mentioned a single word of it!

These seductresses had run to the crown prince’s estate while she wasn’t there?

By the time Qiaoqiao had regained her senses after getting angry, she discovered that she wasn’t at the entrance of the Eastern Palace. Rather, she had come with the Kang Prince Consort to Changle Boulevard and had already gone through the second door of the prince’s estate.

Qiaoqiao blinked her large eyes and looked around curiously. “Imperial Aunt?”

“Ay, Imperial Aunt will first go change. You sit here for a bit. Or how about you change clothes too?” The Kang Prince Consort asked with a smile.

“It’s okay.”

“Then you wait a bit for Imperial Aunt. We will have a feast once your Imperial Uncle gets back.”
