Cultivation Quick Transmigration: The Believer Girl is Lacking Money and Morals

Granny Yu, who was guarding the door, quickly bowed and said, "Granny Chen."

Before the words were even finished, the person had already entered the house.

She was a well-dressed, stern-faced old woman, around fifty years old, with a somewhat rigid look in her eyes and brows, clearly an elderly person of status in the household.

When Granny Chen entered the room, she first curtsied to Xiao Shiyan: "Greetings, Your Highness."

Then he turned to Liu Chenchen, his sharp eyes scanning her up and down before he spoke coldly, "Miss Liu, the Princess Consort requests your presence. Please come with me."

This title is quite interesting; instead of calling her the Crown Prince's Consort, she's called Miss Liu.

It's obvious they don't acknowledge her identity.

Has her secret been exposed?

Liu Chenchen was sitting at her dressing table, inserting a hairpin. Upon hearing this, she didn't even lift her eyelids, only asking indifferently, "What, is it now the servants' turn to be in charge of the Prince Xian's mansion?"

Her voice wasn't loud, but every word was clear, tinged with sarcasm: "With this kind of grand entrance, anyone who didn't know better would think the matriarch of the household had arrived."

Granny Chen's expression changed.

She had lived in the Prince's mansion for decades, and even the Princess Consort had to give her some face. She never imagined that she would be ridiculed to her face by a young girl.

Remembering that the man before her was an imposter, and knowing that the princess and prince were currently furious, she regained her confidence and straightened her back, saying:

"This old servant is acting on the orders of the Princess, so please, Miss Liu, do not make things difficult for me."

Liu Chenchen then glanced at her, a cold smile playing on her lips, but ignored her and instead turned to Xiao Shiyan: "Young Master, the Prince Xian's Mansion is truly an eye-opener."

She wanted to see what kind of attitude this Prince Xiao had, as this would determine which direction she should strive towards later.

Xiao Shiyan was tying his belt when he heard this, he paused, looked up at Granny Chen, and frowned slightly: "Granny Chen."

These three words, spoken in a flat tone, carried a warning.

Granny Chen was startled.

What does the young master mean by this? Doesn't he recognize that this isn't Miss Liu?

Or... did he know all along, but deliberately showed favoritism?

Her gaze involuntarily drifted towards the bed, trying to see what was going on, but unfortunately, it was too far away to see anything.

My heart skipped a beat.

Oh no! Could it be... could it be that they've already consummated their marriage?

It's all the Minister's Mansion's fault! They should have sent the message last night, but they waited until this morning. Isn't that just setting us up for failure?

What Granny Chen didn't know was that the Minister's residence also only found out early that morning.

It wasn't much earlier than the Prince Xian's Mansion.

Here's the thing:

Upon hearing Liu Qiongqiong's instructions, Xiao Cui hurriedly ran out of the Xu family's house.

Her indenture is still in the hands of the madam, who is, of course, on the side of the madam and the eldest daughter.

It was already dark by the time the banquet was over, and it was even later by the time the red veil was lifted.

This meant that by the time she arrived at the Minister's residence, it was already dark, and the gatekeepers were all asleep.

She knocked on the door from the outside and called for a long time until her voice was hoarse, and it was only with great difficulty that she finally got the door to open.

It was quite a coincidence. Last night, because of her daughter's marriage, Madam Li was saddened and went to bed early. She also specifically instructed the servants not to disturb her, no matter what.

When the doorman reported that the second young lady's maid was at the door, the steward assumed it was the second young lady causing trouble again and immediately told him not to pay any attention.

The second young lady has caused quite a stir in the manor these past three months. Now that she's married, it's her husband's family's turn to worry.

So Xiao Cui waited at the door for the gatekeeper to announce her arrival, but nothing ever came of it. The gatekeeper never came back; he just went to sleep.

No matter how much Xiao Cui knocked on the door, she ignored her completely.

She dared not return to the Xu family home, so she squatted at the door all night, feeling cold and scared, and eventually fell asleep in a daze.

It wasn't until the gatekeeper opened the door this morning that I saw Xiao Cui squatting at the door, dozing off.

"Oh my, what are you doing here?" the doorman asked in surprise.

Startled awake, Xiao Cui scrambled to her feet and grabbed the gatekeeper's sleeve, shouting incoherently, "Wrong! Wrong! All wrong!"

"What did you do wrong? Tell me slowly."

"Eldest Miss! Eldest Miss has married into the Xu family! Second Miss... Second Miss, she..."

Upon hearing this, the gatekeeper was terrified and immediately took Xiao Cui to see the steward.

Upon hearing this, the steward's legs went weak, and he quickly led people to Li's courtyard.

Madam Li had just gotten up and was sitting in front of her dressing table when she heard her maid report that Xiao Cui was requesting an audience. Thinking that Liu Chenchen was causing trouble again, she said impatiently, "Let her wait."

"Madam, Xiao Cui says she has something urgent, she says... she says she married the wrong person!"

Li's hand trembled, and the comb fell to the ground: "What? You married the wrong person?"

Xiao Cui was brought in, and she knelt down with a thud, crying as she recounted what had happened the night before.

Upon hearing this, Li felt dizzy and almost fainted.

"Liu Chenchen...that bitch!" She gritted her teeth, her nails digging deep into her palms.

Liu Wenyuan was also alarmed and rushed over. After hearing Xiao Cui's account, his face turned ashen: "Nonsense! Utter nonsense!"

"Master, what should we do now?" Madam Li cried anxiously. "Qiongqiong is in the Xu family, and Liu Chenchen is in the Prince Xian's residence. If word gets out, where will we, the Liu family, put our reputation?"

Liu Wenyuan paced around the room a few times, then said in a deep voice, "The most important thing now is to prevent the Prince from misunderstanding that we deliberately switched places. Steward, quickly prepare the horses; I need to go to the Prince Xian's residence in person to apologize."

"yes!"

The butler rushed out, and Liu Wenyuan straightened his clothes and quickly went to wait in the front courtyard.

Seeing her husband leave in a hurry, Li felt a burning anger that she couldn't vent anywhere, so she sent someone to summon Aunt Sun, Liu Chenchen's birth mother, to the main courtyard.

She launched into a tirade: "How did you raise your daughter? How could she do something so shameless and audacious!"

Aunt Sun knelt on the ground, trembling, not daring to utter a single word of explanation.

She secretly resented her daughter for being disobedient and causing her trouble.

The King and Queen had gone to bed late last night and didn't want to get up early this morning, but they were startled when Minister Liu came to apologize.

"What a disgrace to the Minister's household! What a cunning Liu Chenchen!" The Princess Consort was so angry her hands trembled. "How dare they play such tricks right under our noses!"

The wise prince, however, remained calm. After a moment's thought, he said, "This matter is strange. How could Liu Chenchen, a mere concubine's daughter, have such audacity? Could someone be behind this?"

"Whether someone instructed them or not, the people have already entered the house and completed the wedding ceremony, so..." Princess Xian stopped there, then suddenly remembered something, and her expression changed:

"Could it be...could it be that they've already consummated their marriage?"

The two looked at each other and saw the worry in each other's eyes.

If they have already consummated their marriage, then this matter becomes even more complicated.

Regardless of whether Liu Chenchen is a concubine's daughter or not, once they consummate their marriage, she will be Xiao Shiyan's rightful wife, and there's no going back.

In fact, both of them knew that even if they hadn't consummated their marriage, having gone through the wedding ceremony, it was irreversible.

"Quickly, send someone to Dongwu Courtyard and summon that Liu Chenchen!" Princess Xian instructed the nanny beside her.
