Jiang Jingyue was taken aback when Qin Hanwu suddenly asked such a question, and her eyes widened in surprise.
"Your Highness... what do you mean? You wouldn't... you wouldn't be thinking of..."
Although Jiang Jingyue didn't finish her sentence, the meaning in her eyes was quite clear.
She was still somewhat shocked when she saw Qin Hanwu nod.
"Your Highness, are you confident? Or not? If not, we can't act rashly. We should wait until we have a plan."
Qin Hanwu was quite surprised. He hadn't expected Jiang Jingyue to say that. He had thought that Jiang Jingyue would advise him against doing such a thing.
However, he was really happy to have Jiang Jingyue's support.
"Xiao Jing, don't worry! I've arranged everything. It's the emperor who's being unjust, so don't blame me for being unjust."
Wang Desheng, standing nearby, was extremely anxious. His lord, at this moment, actually had the leisure to discuss matters with the princess. Shouldn't he be leaving quickly?
Having no other option, seeing that the prince showed no sign of leaving, Wang Desheng could only take a step forward.
He spoke up, risking being blamed by his prince.
"Your Highness, let's leave now! If we don't leave now, it will be too late when those people arrive."
Sure enough, as soon as Wang Desheng opened his mouth, he was glared at by his master.
Fortunately, the prince finally took some action.
Qin Hanwu immediately pulled Jiang Jingyue into his arms and lifted her up in his arms.
"Xiao Jing, let's go back now. We can make proper arrangements for the advance when we get back."
Just as they were about to go out, a large group of people arrived outside, and a battle was about to break out.
The two sides fought fiercely, but fortunately Qin Hanwu had a large number of men, all of whom were professionally trained.
The emperors' people were no match for Emperor Wu of Qin and Han.
Soon, the emperor's men were at a disadvantage and were utterly defeated by Qin and Han Wu's forces, fleeing in disarray.
Qin Hanwu held Jiang Jingyue tightly in his arms. At this moment, the heart that had been pounding in Qin Hanwu's chest finally settled down.
After seeing that everyone had been dealt with, he carried Jiang Jingyue back to the Regent's Palace.
When the emperor in the palace received this news, in addition to anger, he also felt a sense of fear. For some reason, he felt that this time, Emperor Qin Hanwu would not remain indifferent as before.
Things he hadn't cared about before, this time, however, he touched something he cared about, making it completely different.
"Your Majesty, what should we do now? Will the Regent really rebel?"
On the contrary, this is exactly what the emperor was worried about. He regretted it; he shouldn't have provoked Qin Hanwu, and he especially shouldn't have touched his woman.
For the past few years, they have been living peacefully together.
This time, he acted too impulsively.
"I don't know either. Anyway, you have our men prepare to attack at any time. If he really leads his troops into the palace, that would be a heinous crime. Even if he gains the world, the people will not love him."
Whether the emperor was trying to comfort himself or not, he kept repeating the same phrase.
This time, the palace soldiers attacked a few days after Qin Hanwu brought Jiang Jingyue back. Without hesitation, Qin Hanwu led all his soldiers to attack the capital and stormed the palace in one fell swoop.
When the emperor inside saw that Qin and Han Wu had actually led their troops into the palace, he was completely stunned.
He just stared blankly at Qin Hanwu, trembling as he prepared to speak, but he couldn't bring himself to utter a word.
He was terrified, and it took him a while before the emperor finally spoke.
"Regent, why did you do this? Do you know how treasonous your actions are? You dare to rebel! Who...who gave you the audacity?"
After the emperor finished speaking, he saw Qin Hanwu walking towards him. He subconsciously took a few steps back, simply because he was frightened.
"You...you mustn't come any closer! I am still the emperor. If you come any closer, my men will not let you go."
The emperor also tried to threaten Qin Hanwu, but what he didn't know was that no matter how he threatened him, it would be of no use to Qin Hanwu now.
He slowly walked to the emperor's side and spoke softly beside him.
"Your Majesty, you shouldn't have touched her. I never intended to do it. You forced me to. Your Majesty, this empire should have a new ruler."
The emperor was somewhat unable to accept it. He nodded frantically, on the verge of collapse. Suddenly, he lunged at Qin Hanwu.
Fortunately, Emperor Wu of Qin was quick enough to dodge, giving the emperor no chance at all.
"Take him away! He's the former emperor now, he won't have the chance to stay here anymore."
The emperor still couldn't accept the change of dynasty. He wanted to stay and not leave, but his strength was no match for that of two soldiers.
Although he struggled desperately, he was eventually taken away.
"Your Majesty...Shouldn't we issue an imperial decree now?"
The succession of Emperor Wu of Qin to the throne was approved by almost all the ministers, so there were not many troubles.
Those few who held opposing views were dealt with by Qin and Han Wu's men.
"I order you to bring the Empress to the palace immediately."
When Qin Hanwu took action, he did not bring Jiang Jingyue with him. Instead, he had her taken to a very secluded place outside. He instructed Jiang Jingyue that if he did not send someone to fetch her to the palace by the end of the day, it would mean that he had failed.
His men will immediately take her away from this place and ensure she is not harmed in any way.
If he wins, he will immediately send someone to bring her to the palace. The moment Jiang Jingyue saw Wang Desheng, she knew that Qin Hanwu had won.
"This servant is here by imperial decree to escort Her Majesty the Empress to the palace."
Without hesitation, Jiang Jingyue immediately followed Wang Desheng into the carriage, which stumbled and bumped its way to the palace.
Emperor Wu of Qin and Han had been waiting there for a long time.
Although he knew Jiang Jingyue would definitely come, Qin Hanwu was still a little worried, fearing that something might happen on the way.
The moment he actually saw Jiang Jingyue, his heart, which had been pounding, instantly relaxed.
He opened his arms, waiting for Jiang Jingyue to run into his embrace.
As he wished, Jiang Jingyue ran to his side, and as soon as she threw herself into Qin Hanwu's arms, she couldn't help but vomit.
