How could the throne be seized so easily by the Crown Prince? So... so fickle...
Everyone in the harem knows what kind of person the prince is. He was able to become the prince only because of the support of the Cui family behind him.
When the late emperor was still alive, the Empress Dowager strictly managed the number of princes and princesses in the harem.
They were all childless concubines. What would they do if they were sent to be buried alive?
Xiling Mingyue also clenched her fists in her bedroom. The dog emperor was dead, the prince ascended the throne, and she could no longer stay in the palace.
She and the bitch Queen have never gotten along. If she stayed here, she might use dirty means to humiliate her.
The most important thing is that she is in the hands of the queen, and Fu Guang will definitely not be able to do what she wants.
Xiling Mingyue summoned the messenger bird and carefully wrote about the prince's succession to the throne. She wrote on the letter that the prince had ascended the throne, and then expressed that she would escape from the palace as soon as possible.
It’s time to pack up and get ready to leave!
With the help of the Third Prince, the news of the Crown Prince's ascension to the throne will spread throughout the world in a few days. This will definitely be an opportunity for Fu Guang!
The emperor came here in good health yesterday, how come he died so soon this evening?
It was obvious that the prince was impatient and could not wait to kill his father and ascend the throne.
There are still many members of the Third Prince's Party and the Fifth Prince's Party in the court. Even if the crown prince becomes emperor, it will not be legitimate.
By then, all the princes in the world will surely hear the news and take action, and they will plunder the land in the east under the name of clearing the court.
Not to mention the Beirong and Nanxia who are eyeing them covetously.
Donglin Kingdom is finished.
The messenger bird flew away at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye, and Xiling Mingyue also cast a spell and escaped from the brightly lit palace with his confidants!
Xiling Mingyue is the little princess of Ningxi Kingdom and the younger sister of the current emperor of Ningxi Kingdom.
It was inevitable that she knew the magic of the immortal family! It was just that in order to better survive in the palace, she had not told Fu Guang that child.
Children are not good at keeping secrets.
"Master, where are we going?" The carriage was shaking, and the trusted maid Nie Ying lowered her voice and asked in a low voice.
Xiling Mingyue frowned and used her spiritual sense to sense the location of the messenger bird.
I have clearly arrived in Qingshizhou, so why hasn't there been a reply yet?
"Anyway, I won't go back to Ningxi Country! This lady and I are going to Qingshi State! To see Fu Guang. Fu Guang's birthday is almost here." Xiling Mingyue was a little uncomfortable with the sudden change of address.
"Yes." The master hasn't seen the young lady for more than half a year, so naturally he wants to meet her.
Alas, I don’t know when the master will be able to reconcile with the one from Ningxi Kingdom. They haven’t seen each other for so many years. No matter how much they quarrel, they are still siblings.
Early in the morning, Ji Wan yawned, holding the messenger bird in his hand, and after reading the message from his mother, he widened his eyes in shock.
The prince ascended the throne?
"System, does this count as a mission failure?" Ji Wan was a little shocked. Ji Yuanheng was in good health, so how could he just die like that?
She was not surprised that the prince ascended the throne, but what surprised her was how Ji Qin managed to get past the numerous palace guards and kill the emperor?
"Not really." The mechanical voice was flat.
I'm glad the mission didn't fail. She still wants to take advantage of the system.
Moreover, my mother also said in the letter that she had already set off and was on her way to Qingshizhou!
My mother is here... Mother, ah, mother... In my memory, she is a very gentle person.
Will she notice... No! She is Ji Wan, she is the grown-up Ji Wan!
She is Ji Wan!
Ji Wan put on her pajamas and called Yang Guan, who was making the bed and resting in the outer room, in.
"Yang Guan, Mother has sent me a letter. Please take a look and calculate when Mother will arrive in Qingshizhou."
Yang Guan took the letter and glanced at it. The emperor was dead. He then silently calculated if the imperial concubine used her spiritual power to speed up the journey: "Your Highness, if it's fast, it will arrive in about half a month."
Half a month? That's a bit too fast. What was Ji Wan like in my memory? Is it too late for her to start learning now?
Seeing that Ji Wan's face didn't show joy, but rather a look of trepidation and worry, Yang Guan was silent for a moment: "Your Highness, is there something bothering you? It's a good thing that the Queen is here."
Ji Wan said casually, "I've changed so much recently. What should I do if Mother doesn't like my... behavior?"
Yang Guan understood in his heart: "Your Highness, you are worrying too much. The Queen has been looking forward to this day for who knows how long. If the Queen knew the change in you today, she would definitely be happy."
I've been waiting for so long... What am I waiting for? Is it that the original Ji Wan will change her personality and become stronger? Or is it that the original Ji Wan has the ambition to become emperor?
He couldn't possibly be hoping that the current Ji Wan would occupy his daughter's body...
After hearing Yang Guan's comfort, Ji Wan became even more anxious. She might as well wait for the imperial concubine to arrive and confess to her... After all, she was not her real daughter.
But if she confessed, she would be without a mother again...
Let’s just wait and see until the person arrives. There’s still half a month left anyway!
To be honest, Ji Wan could still keep a clear mind when facing other problems, but when faced with family issues that she had never experienced or dealt with, she really didn't know what to do.
When it comes to family affection, she just plays ostrich.
"How's things going in the prison? Is anyone there?"
Yesterday, Ji Wan ordered someone to put Zhang Zhou in a relatively weak prison, with the purpose of fishing.
He wanted to see if the mastermind behind giving Zhangzhou the magical weapon would show up, and he wanted to take the initiative to get rid of Zhangzhou.
Yang Guan took out a set of dark-colored casual clothes from the cabinet as Ji Wan requested. "Your Highness, the person has been detained and the city gates have been sealed. I guarantee he won't be able to escape from your grasp."
It is a national mourning, so it is best to wear dark clothes before the news reaches Qingshizhou, and be cautious, so as to avoid the current prince, oh no, the emperor, blaming Ji Wan.
"Whose family is it?"
Yang Guan had been helping Ji Wan dress for a long time. There was no other palace maid around Ji Wan except Xiao Cui, but she did not use Xiao Cui.
In terms of closeness, no one in the entire Qingshi State can compare to Yang Guan.
Similar matters involving Ji Wan must be handled by people like Yang Guan who were brought to Qingshizhou by him.
It is not only to show her kindness to other subordinates, but also a way for Ji Wan to praise or appreciate her subordinates.
You see, the fact that I can give such great honor to my subordinates who have followed me for many years is enough to prove that I am not an ungrateful person.
"Your Highness, I have examined them and they are a branch of the Cui family in the royal capital."
Yang Guan has already started adjusting the position of the sachet and jade pendant that Ji Wan brought today.
Too many people have died recently, so it is better to bring the sachet and jade pendant to ward off evil spirits and filth for Your Highness.
"Okay, change your clothes, I'll go take a look."
Cui family, Cui family, Cui family again, there are so many people in the Cui family!
