Chapter 19: General's Mansion Eldest Lady VS Transmigrated Younger Sister (Part 18)
Gu Shengyin, of course, noticed the possessive gaze of the Crown Prince and felt nothing but revulsion. What was he pretending to have deep affection for now? If he truly cared for Jiang Lingzhen, he wouldn't have done such things with Jiang Yunsan.
Her heart was filled with disgust, yet she had to pretend to be unaware and chatted and laughed with the people around her. Fortunately, the Crown Prince couldn't always stay in the room where the ladies were gathered, and he soon left.
Just as she was about to leave the Duke's Mansion, Gu Shengyin suddenly received a message from the system.
"Are you saying..." Gu Shengyin widened her eyes in disbelief. Were these two really that daring?
What the system had just told her was that the Crown Prince, Ji Ye, was inside a rockery in the back mountain of the Duke's Mansion, with a maid...
Indeed an Evil Ghost in lust, Gu Shengyin thought, recalling the plot's appraisal of the Crown Prince.
She wondered how Jiang Yunsan would feel when she saw the man she was about to marry in such a state.
Gu Shengyin got up and said to the young ladies beside her, "I heard that there are some rare Peony flowers in the garden of the Mansion of Duke of Garrison Commander. Why don't we go and take a look?"
Everyone naturally agreed, and the daughter of the mansion's owner, Li Ruoxuan, smiled and led them towards the back garden.
The peonies were indeed as remarkable as they were reputed to be, and everyone marveled at them. As they prepared to return, one of the young ladies suddenly stopped and said, "Did I just hear something?"
Upon hearing this, everyone stopped and listened closely, and indeed they could hear the sound of a woman's sobbing in the distance.
Li Ruoxuan, as the master of the house and accompanied by so many people and dozens of maids and servants, was quite bold. She immediately decided to investigate the sound.
For these young ladies, such an exploratory experience was rare, and they were all excited.
But as they approached, the sound became more and more improper.
The voice, although sobbing, was mixed with an indescribable seductiveness, the moaning and groaning blushed those who heard it.
A few older young ladies had already secretly blushed, while those too young to understand remained confused.
The experienced nannies had already changed their expressions.
"Ladies, the situation ahead is not suitable for your eyes, let us old servants check it out," said a few of the older nannies exchanging glances with each other as they looked in the direction of the sound.
"Ah!" A piercing scream echoed through the air followed by a man's cursing, "Blind old hag, ruining my good time!"
The onlookers saw an old nanny kicked to the ground; by the sound of the man's voice, it was the Crown Prince, Ji Ye!
"What happened?" In the back courtyard of the Mansion of Duke of Garrison Commander, there were guards patrolling, who rushed over upon hearing the scream. They saw an old nanny on the ground and rushed over, not understanding what had occurred.
By the time the ladies realized what was happening and wanted to stop it, it was too late.
The Crown Prince, disheveled, and the maid, flushed with pleasure, were exposed in front of everyone!
In less than a quarter of an hour, the Crown Prince's dalliance had spread throughout the entire Mansion of Duke of Garrison Commander.
Gu Shengyin watched with interest as Jiang Yunsan's face turned ashen. Did she ever consider when she seduced the Crown Prince that she herself might end up in such a predicament one day?
The Imperial decree from the palace came swiftly, indicating that no one was to speak of this matter.
But with so many guests at the Duke's Mansion that day, who could silence the whispers of the crowd?
The secrets of the Imperial Family interested everyone, and within a couple of days, the entire Capital City was abuzz with the untold stories between His Highness, the Crown Prince, and the maid of the Mansion of Duke of Garrison Commander.
