Chapter 201 Wedding Cancelled
Qu Wanyi looked at Qin Wanying and felt a chill run down her spine. She wondered, if Qin Wanying was here, then who was lying on the bed?
Qu Wanyi turned around and saw that the man on the bed looked familiar; it was Yan Cheng.
The woman had her face covered by a blanket, so it was impossible to tell who she was.
What's going on? Qu Wanyi's mind was completely blank.
However, no matter who it was, doing such a thing at her mother's birthday banquet was unforgivable, and she immediately went up to pull the woman's blanket away.
Qu Wanyi was very strong, and Chen Lingshuang was no match for her. The blanket was quickly pulled off, revealing her face, which turned out to be Chen Lingshuang.
Qu Wanyi was completely stunned.
Didn't you tell me to catch them cheating?
So you ended up catching them cheating?
Do you have some kind of unusual fetish?
The noble ladies behind her were also stunned when they saw that it was Chen Ling Shuang.
"Isn't this Chen Ling Shuang, the daughter of the Marquis of Zhong'an? Wasn't she supposed to marry Tao Jie, the son of the Grand Chamberlain? Why is she committing adultery here?"
"I think that man is Yan Cheng, the son of the Minister of the Imperial Secretariat. I never imagined that the two of them were having an affair!"
Chen Ling Shuang's head was still spinning, but after venting her anger, her mind cleared up considerably.
She realized what was happening.
The person caught cheating in public has become yourself.
What happened? Wasn't everything arranged?
She clearly saw Qin Wanying come out with her outer garment removed and her head in her hands. Her maid should have gone to find that servant!
Chen Ling Shuang suddenly remembered the burning desire she had just felt and immediately realized what was happening.
She took the medicine!
She took aphrodisiacs herself and ended up sleeping with Yan Cheng.
Why would Yan Cheng come looking for her?
Her mind was a complete mess; she couldn't understand it at all.
She felt everyone's eyes were on her, and she could hear the chirping of crickets all around her.
She felt her face burning; she was incredibly embarrassed.
Embarrassment was secondary; the important thing was that she was about to marry Tao Jie, the son of the Grand Councilor!
The wedding is in three days!
Once she gets married, her family will become in-laws with the Grand Councilor, and they'll be in the same boat from then on!
At this critical juncture, such a huge thing has happened!
Yan Cheng, who was lying on the bed, was also stunned.
He was caught naked in bed with another man.
His reputation is ruined!
It's likely that he's also developed a grudge against the Grand Councilor!
His father and sister must be furious!
It's all Chen Ling Shuang's fault for seducing him in such a situation! She's gone too far!
The commotion was quite loud, and many guests from the banquet came over and gathered outside the door.
The Duke of Yingguo has arrived, along with the families of the Marquis of Dingbei, the Marquis of Zhong'an, Yan Danyang, and the Attendant-in-Ordinary.
When Chen Ling Shuang saw so many people surrounding her, she felt so ashamed she wanted to die, and at the same time, she was terrified.
The Marquis of Dingbei and his family were completely relaxed, with expressions of watching the spectacle.
He looked at Wan Ying with an approving expression.
Wan Ying is truly remarkable; she not only didn't fall for the trap herself, but she also managed to outsmart the other party.
Qin Yezhong knew that this was definitely not something Wan Ying could accomplish on her own.
It's likely that the Crown Prince intervened.
Gu Yiwen looked somewhat excited; if someone handed her a handful of sunflower seeds, she would eat them with great relish.
She deserved this fate for trying to harm Ah Ying!
The Duke of England was ashen-faced. Such a thing had happened at his wife's birthday banquet! What audacity!
Knowing that it was his daughter who organized the catching of the adulterers in bed, he glared at his daughter again.
Does that mean you've shown off? You've ruined a perfectly good birthday celebration!
Qu Wanyi shrank her neck guiltily.
The ones with the worst complexions were Marquis Zhong'an, his son, the Attendant-in-Ordinary, and Yan Danyang.
The faces of the group were all grim.
Tao Jie's eyes were bloodshot as he glared at the adulterous couple on the bed and shouted, "You adulterous couple, I'm going to kill you!"
After saying that, he picked up an unlit lampstand from the table and was about to hit two people.
Chen Ling Shuang and Yan Cheng covered themselves with the blankets and screamed as they hid inside the bed.
Even after being stopped, he stared intently at the two people on the bed, his chest heaving violently.
The Chamberlain, suppressing his anger, said, "Jie'er, calm down and let your father handle this."
Tao Jie regained some of his composure and stopped talking.
Everyone's eyes were gleaming with gossip. Being able to witness the scene of catching someone in the act of adultery up close, with all the parties involved and their parents present, was truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
The British public organized everyone to go outside and let the two young men get dressed.
The two of them got dressed, but their hair was still a mess.
Now Chen Ling Shuang was fully awake, her face pale, feeling both ashamed and afraid.
After they finished getting dressed, the parents of the parties involved went inside.
The others wanted to be dismissed, but they couldn't be sent away at all. With such a juicy story, who could resist getting involved?
The rest of the people were blocking the doorway.
The door was kicked and damaged by Qu Wanyi just now, so it can't be closed at all.
Chen Ling Shuang and Yan Cheng knelt on the ground, forced to watch.
Marquis Zhong'an slapped Chen Ling Shuang across the face.
With a sharp "smack," a large area of Chen Ling Shuang's cheek swelled up.
Marquis Zhong'an glared at Chen Ling Shuang with uncontrollable rage. He had thought she was clever, but she turned out to be so stupid!
Marquis Zhong'an was completely unaware of his daughter's affair with Yan Cheng.
Her daughter also told her that the Empress Dowager had recently taken a great liking to her, and that she was going to do a secret thing for the Empress Dowager, after which she would be rewarded. This made Marquis Zhong'an extremely happy.
As a result, this is it?
My life is ruined!
Yan Danyang looked disappointed and kicked his son, knocking him to the ground.
Yan Cheng quickly got up, pointed at Chen Ling Shuang and said, "Father, it's all her fault, she seduced me!"
Chen Ling Shuang looked incredulous, never expecting that Yan Cheng would push all the blame onto her.
"Yan Cheng, are you even human?! You dare to do it but don't dare to admit it, and you're even trying to shift the blame onto a woman!"
Yan Cheng was originally a son of a concubine in the family. Because his legal mother had no biological son, he was registered under her name. If his father disliked him, he might lose his status as a legitimate son.
He quickly said, "Father, it really was her who seduced me! I have proof!"
He frantically searched through his pockets, but he couldn't find the note anywhere.
That's strange, did it land somewhere?
Qin Wanying watched his actions with a slight smile on her lips.
How could I possibly leave you any evidence?
The Chamberlain spoke up, saying to Marquis Zhong'an, "Regardless of who seduced whom, what has happened today is over. The wedding scheduled for three days later is canceled! We request that Marquis Zhong'an return the betrothal gifts!"
Marquis Zhong'an grew anxious and quickly said, "Lord Tao, please don't be alarmed! I will certainly discipline Ling Shuang properly. Let's not damage the harmony between our two families!"
The Chamberlain's chest heaved as he said, "Once you've disciplined him, remember to send him to the Yan family residence!"
After saying that, he glared at Yan Danyang.
Yan Danyang's face was grim.
When exactly did my son get involved with Chen Ling Shuang?
Now, the Duke's mansion has lost face terribly at its birthday banquet and has even offended the Grand Councilor!
It should be noted that the Attendant-in-Ordinary is a force that the War King has been striving to gain.
He thought that by betrothing the son of the Chamberlain to the daughter of the Marquis of Zhong'an, he could successfully bring the Chamberlain under the command of the War King.
Now that the Chamberlain has fallen out with the Marquis of Zhong'an and also with him, he probably won't side with the War King anymore.
I'm sure the Empress Dowager and the War King will blame me!
At this moment, Chen Ling Shuang suddenly felt dizzy and braced herself on the ground with her hands.
Qin Wanying spoke up: "Miss Chen is not feeling well, probably because she has been stimulated. Fortunately, Physician Wang is here, let him take a look at her."
As soon as Qin Wanying finished speaking, Chen Ling Shuang's expression changed.
She couldn't let the imperial physician examine her.
Once you see it, won't the secret be exposed?
