The Cousin Is About to Marry，The Abstinent Young Lord Loses Control-Chapter 106: They’re All Idiots!

The relationship between Duke Xie and Princess An He is cold; he only spends two nights a month in the main courtyard.

Other times, he either stays in the concubines’ quarters or lives alone in the study in the front courtyard. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

On the day of his son’s wedding, Lord Xie was entertaining guests and drank excessively.

Lazy to go to the backyard, he instructed a servant to take him back to the study.

The study had a bedroom attached, and on the bed lay a person. Duke Xie thought it was a concubine vying for his favor.

This kind of thing happened from time to time; everyone was used to it.

He sent the servant away and clumsily got onto the bed, embracing the person in his arms.

Du Peifang woke up slowly, sensing hands causing chaos on her body. She thought it was Xie Yunzhen.

Afraid that Xie Yunzhen might see her face, Du Peifang tried her best to maintain a side posture.

She dared not turn around.

Her heart was racing, hoping that things would go smoothly, even smoother.

Once the cooked rice is done, the matter will be settled!

Duke Xie, tipsy from the alcohol, had no patience for flirting with a concubine.

He directly pulled off her underpants.

Du Peifang couldn’t hold back and hummed out a sound, which made Duke Xie realize something was wrong.

The sound was unlike any concubine.

Could it be a maid trying to climb onto the bed?

This assumption enraged him. If there was a woman he fancied, he would take her as a concubine himself.

But daring to climb onto the bed without permission was a challenge to his authority!

He pinned the woman’s body down, forcefully turning her face toward him.

He was going to see who was bold enough to commit such an audacious act for wealth and glory!

Their eyes met, both were frightened.

Du Peifang, inexperienced, screamed and nearly fainted in shock.

Only then did Duke Xie notice her attire.

The outer layers had been discarded, but it was evident that the inner lining was wedding clothes.

His face turned ashen.

It wasn’t hard to guess whose handiwork this was.

And who they were truly trying to scheme against.

The Duke Mansion was powerful, and Ah Zhen was already in the spotlight, causing others to envy.

He was pleased about marrying Ji Mingzhu.

Furthermore, although the Ji Family had fallen, General Ji was a national hero. As long as things were handled well, Ji Mingzhu wasn’t without support.

Unexpectedly, An He was still not giving up.

It would be one thing if she hadn’t given up, but she involved the Du Family.

Was she afraid the Duke Mansion had too few enemies!

"A bunch of fools!"

He hurried to get up, intending to send Du Peifang away.

Unfortunately, it was too late.

Princess An He, Madam Du, and distant guests staying at the Duke Mansion were led to the study in the front courtyard.

Seeing the scene inside, Madam Du covered her mouth, her face turning ashen!

Princess An He was nearly losing her mind.

She brought Du Peifang into the mansion to push out Ji Mingzhu, not to give herself trouble!

"Mother..."

Du Peifang was too frightened, disheveled, she threw herself into Madam Du’s arms.

"Take me home, I don’t want to stay here."

Du Peifang’s voice was trembling, and tears fell incessantly.

She wanted Xie Yunzhen, not the old Lord who could be her father!

Moreover, the Commandery Princess was so strong-willed that whoever touched her man would meet a terrible fate.

The thought of such days was horrifying to Du Peifang.

"Mother, I want to go home."

She began to cry and shout, utterly irrational from the shock.

Madam Du also wanted to take her daughter away, but in front of so many onlookers, she was sleeping in Duke Xie’s study.

Even if she took her back home, she couldn’t block the gossip everywhere.

Simply going home wouldn’t resolve the matter.

Madam Du tightly embraced her daughter, her voice trembling, instructing the maid she brought.

"Quickly, return to the mansion and call for the master!"

This matter was too big for her to handle alone.

The master had to step out to seek justice from the Xie family!

Also, the witnesses present had to be managed to keep their mouths shut somehow.

Otherwise, how would Peifang maintain her reputation?

Guests bribed by Xu Zhou hid behind the crowd, pinching their voices to change the original tone.

"Looks like today is a double joy!"

"Congratulations to Lord Xie for getting a flower-like beauty!"

"Also, congratulations to Miss Du for finding a good match!"

As soon as these words came out, the air was quiet, enough to hear a pin drop.

Lord Xie had a wife and other concubines; Du Peifang entering could only become a concubine.

She’s a legitimate daughter from the Grand Tutor Mansion; no matter what, it shouldn’t come to this.

How is this joyous?

It’s obviously like stepping on dog shit.

Smelly and disgusting!

The people present were shrewd. They’ve seen this attempt at exposing infidelity many times, and it looked like Miss Du was being schemed against.

Sympathy, ridicule... different gazes fell on her.

Du Peifang wished she could faint on the spot.

Her body was trembling, clutching her mother tightly; she realized her mistake.

Only family truly cared for her.

The Commandery Princess wasn’t concerned for her safety; otherwise, how would she end up in Lord Xie’s room?

Du Peifang felt utter despair; she couldn’t reveal the truth.

Otherwise, those who pity her would turn against her, laughing at her for bringing it upon herself.

Her mind was in chaos, and she had an intuition that her future might be ruined.

Just like Du Peilan.

Abandoned by the family.

No one wanted to marry her.

As if she found an outlet for her frustration, Du Peifang exclaimed, "It’s Du Peilan, she incited me!"

Madam Du quickly covered her mouth, cursing lowly, "Shut up, don’t speak nonsense!"

More talk brings more mistakes.

If someone grabs hold of this, there won’t be room for recovery.

Du Peilan...

Unexpectedly, this incident was connected to that lowly wench. No wonder she left the capital two days ago.

Previously, to stay in the Grand Tutor Mansion, she even attempted to hang herself publicly.

Yet now she hurriedly left, having committed wrongdoing, she fled!

Madam Du was furious.

If only she had been more ruthless, directly dealing with Du Peilan.

Then, she wouldn’t have harmed Peifang.

Now her own daughter walked the same path as her stepdaughter, the more Madam Du thought about it, the harder it felt, tears shimmering in her eyes.

What can be done to smooth this over?

Though Madam Du acted swiftly, she was still a step too late.

The guests’ gazes became subtle.

Instigation...

Which meant this Miss Du wasn’t entirely innocent.

She was also scheming behind the scenes, just messing up the plan?

The sympathetic gazes disappeared, replaced by stronger disdain.

One cannot live if they bring misfortune upon themselves.

Some people simply aren’t worthy of sympathy!

Looking at the chaotic scene, Princess An He wanted to curse.

But she was also responsible for the matter; if it escalated, it might accidentally backfire on her.

She couldn’t treat it like usual, either hitting or scolding Lord Xie’s concubines.

She could only glare at Du Peifang secretly.

Useless thing.

She utterly messed up the situation!

Breathing heavily, expression gloomy, desperately suppressing the fury.

Ordered to send away the guests watching the spectacle.

Followed by angry scolding, "Bring that disgraceful child!"

He had threatened before, saying he would make Du Peifang become a concubine for Lord Xie.

At the time, she thought he was just venting his anger.

Unexpectedly, the matter indeed turned out this way.

Princess An He was both angry and heartbroken.

Her son, actually sending women to her husband’s room.

This was like stabbing a knife into her heart!
