Doted By The Regent King-Chapter 590: The Sturdy Thighs of Hao Jin
Chapter 590: Chapter 590: The Sturdy Thighs of Hao Jin
Men don’t like the idea of women having kept men, and upon hearing this, Wufu’s face fell into a smile. She touched her nose and sniffed at the corners of her nostrils.
She had been too comfortable speaking her mind in front Ah Jiu, daring to say anything, but she hadn’t realized that he was, after all, a product of this era. Educated by the clan teachings of this time period, notions of propriety, justice, integrity, and honor naturally made him view a woman serving multiple husbands as an ugly stain on personal virtue.
Indeed, it’s not just the men of this era who think this way, even men of later generations wish only for a woman to be loyal to them alone, What if they were to be cuckolded? It would be strange if they didn’t explode in anger!
Ah Jiu wouldn’t think of her as dissolute and shameless, would he?
"Um, in this world, aren’t there women who keep men?" Wufu asked with an inquiring look that showed no embarrassment.
Purple Jade’s mouth twitched, no wonder Ninth Master was annoyed. The way the girl was acting, was she really considering keeping a few men herself?
"Miss, in this society, men keeping Serviced Children, women keeping men, it happens. It’s just that they do not do so openly, but rather sneakily. However, there are also those who do it overtly," Purple Jade said.
Wufu immediately asked, "Who is it?"
"It’s not just anyone; it’s Beiyan’s Great Princess Yining," Purple Jade replied.
Wufu’s eyes widened, and she whistled impressively, saying, "Goodness, the Grand Eldest Princess, who is she to Ah Jiu? Oh, I still don’t know what kind of prince he is."
Purple Jade smiled and said, "Ninth Master is the current monarch’s own younger brother. He is ninth in line and granted the title of Jin, known as Prince Jin. He is also the legitimate son of the current Empress Dowager. The prince has not yet had his coming of age ceremony, and so has not been bestowed the title of Prince. This year, when the prince returns for his coming of age ceremony, the Ministry of Rites should prepare the investiture for the prince."
Wufu was stunned.
The legitimate son of the Empress Dowager, Prince Jin, who would soon be a prince, what an enormous background, what a resounding status, what a golden thigh to hold on to.
No wonder he looked down on her for wanting to buy a small shop and having such roundabout intentions. To him, it seemed, such things were less significant than a single hair.
Wufu was embarrassed. Class, oh class, how distinct it is.
"Is the Grand Eldest Princess Ah Jiu’s aunt?" Wufu asked another question that sparked her curiosity.
Purple Jade looked carefully at Wufu’s expression, and seeing only shock and a moment of stupor, she let go of her worries.
Purple Jade had feared Wufu might feel inferior and become sad or something else, but now it seemed the girl’s capacity to accept was incredibly strong. She didn’t belittle herself. After hearing all this, she was merely shocked for a moment, and even her way of addressing did not change.
Purple Jade felt a moment of sympathy for Prince Jin. If he truly had intentions, this would be a headache for him— the girl completely clueless! freёnovelkiss.com
"The Great Eldest Princess is the eldest sister of the current emperor and Ninth Master. During the internal strife in Beiyan, the Great Eldest Princess allied with Inner Mongolia to secure peace for Beiyan. After losing her husband and son, the former emperor remembered her sacrifices for the country and brought her back from Inner Mongolia for an honored retirement. Upon returning to Beiyan, the Great Eldest Princess underwent a complete change of temperament and started keeping men. The former emperor turned a blind eye, and after her actions were exposed, they became a hot topic for many. But since the former emperor had imposed a gag order, people dared not speak much."
"After the Great Eldest Princess’s actions were exposed, she simply stopped hiding it. It is said that, at the Great Eldest Princess Mansion, the number of kept men reached as many as thirty. And as for those who were guests but not formally part of the Princess Mansion, they’re not even counted. After the former emperor passed, he instructed the current emperor not to slight the Great Eldest Princess in the slightest or interfere with her doings, so the current emperor also turns a blind eye regarding the Great Eldest Princess keeping men; even if it does not look good for the Imperial family’s reputation, they dare not comment."
Wufu rested her chin on one hand and clicked her tongue in wonder, "The Grand Eldest Princess has really broken the pot by dropping it!" Thirty kept men, she truly is a formidable woman among women!
