After being forced to marry a tyrant: I overturned the original plot

Shuang'er felt weak all over. She hesitated for a moment, then walked up to Qin Xin under the pretext of testing the poison. She moved closer -

Sure enough, I read that right.

Thinking of this, Shuang'er's hands trembled, she took the small bowl handed to her by the nanny, closed her eyes as if she was going to die, and drank it all in one gulp.

After waiting quietly for a while, Shuang'er was fine, and then the nanny said to Qin Xin -

"Bring it in."

Shuang'er, however, held the food box in Qin Xin's hand.

"My queen told me to bring it in, you go down now."

When Qin Xin heard Shuang'er's slightly trembling but calm voice, she knew that she might have recognized her.

"Yes."

Qin Xin responded obediently in a low voice.

Then he turned around and tried to get away.

"and many more."

Unexpectedly, the nanny called Qin Xin.

Qin Xin, who had just turned around, stiffened his back slightly, then relaxed in an instant.

Shuang'er was so nervous that she dared not breathe. After swallowing her saliva frantically several times, she pretended to be calm and asked -

"My queen can't wait any longer, please don't embarrass me..."

She was busy behind the nanny, speaking pitifully.

Qin Xin also said pitifully.

"Madam, what are your instructions? The chef is waiting for me to go back and clean up the imperial kitchen..."

After hearing this, the nanny spoke quickly.

"The queen doesn't like spicy food, tell the imperial chef not to cook random dishes, otherwise - I'll take his head!"

Qin Xin breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this and nodded quickly.

He always demands his head. Can the tyranny disease be transferred?

Don't like spicy food? Who told Jiang Meixu to use the chef she and Gu Fei liked?

"Yes, I will go back and tell you right away."

Then he walked away cautiously in small steps.

Even the way he walks reveals a frightened "petty" air.

The nanny sneered, turned around, and looked at Shuang'er whose eyes were still following Qin Xin, and couldn't help but scold her.

"The queen can't wait to have the soup, why are you still standing there? Do you want to be beaten again?"

Retracting her reluctant gaze, Shuang'er quickly lowered her eyes and brought the soup in.

Not long after she walked in, she felt a little uncomfortable, but she bit her lower lip and insisted on serving the soup to Jiang Meixu.

Shuang'er, kneeling on the ground, secretly pinched her thighs, relying on the pain to endure this irresistible reaction.

Her face turned pale, and a strange color flashed across her delicate face.

Then he said to Concubine De——

"My lady, this soup..."

As for Qin Xin, after she left, she looked a little solemn.

Shuang'er is still alive, which is a good thing, but she is a little uncertain about——

Shuang'er went to Concubine De's palace out of helplessness or she just wanted to surrender.

But if it was betrayal, I wouldn't have helped cover it up just now.

Qin Xin went back to reunite with Sui Shou with mixed feelings.

She was still feeling uneasy because she didn't see Huan'er and Wangcai.

Sui Shou looked at Qin Xin coming back with a serious face, and the stone in his heart fell to the ground.

"My lady, are you okay? Are you not exposed? I almost got exposed just now! It was a close call, a close call."

Listening to Sui Shou's chattering, Qin Xin calmed down and made his expression less serious.

He shook his head and stopped wiping the stove ash off his face.

"Shuang'er is at Jiang Meixu's place, and she just recognized me."

"Ah! What shall I do? You have been so good to her, how can she betray me..."

"It may not be a betrayal. Alas, she is timid to begin with, and I don't know how much suffering she has endured at Jiang Meixu's hands..."

Qin Xin interrupted Sui Shou, sighed, and then said to Sui Shou.

"Return to Shoukang Palace and wait for the patrol shift change before taking action."

Regardless of whether Jiang Meixu drank the soup or not, and whether Shuang'er would betray him or not, safety was the most important thing at the moment.

Shoukang Palace is the safest place for now.

With Sui Shou, Qin Xin quickly returned to Shoukang Palace under the "safe zone" navigation system that was forced upon him.

It was also here that I saw General Chen, who was dying.

The people she brought were giving General Chen emergency treatment.

The tall guy who was usually strong and capable of fighting was now leaning against the table in exhaustion, with wounds all over his body, and it looked like he had suffered a lot of torture.

Qin Xin pursed her lips into a line and spoke in a hoarse voice.

"General Chen, do you still have the strength to speak?"

General Chen struggled to open his eyelids and saw a blurry figure. After trying to identify it, he could only find a vague answer from the familiar voice.

"Queen... Her Majesty?"

Did he hear it right? The Queen's voice? She's back?!

"Yes, it's me. General Chen, you've suffered."

Excited, General Chen put his hands on the ground and wanted to salute Qin Xin.

Qin Xin wanted to help him, but was afraid of accidentally touching his wound, so she just said -

"Let's not go through with these empty formalities for now. I'll have someone escort you out. His Majesty's people are waiting outside to treat you."

"Don't worry about me. Madam, the palace is too dangerous. Please leave quickly..."

General Chen spoke weakly.

"Knowing that you and His Majesty are safe, I can die with peace of mind..."

The mutiny in the palace was also due to his negligence, which led to his failure to be cautious and fall into the trap of the enemy.

He never thought that there was a traitor among the imperial guards.

He had an affair with the maidservants around Concubine De and helped Concubine De put drugs in the food of the imperial guards.

He and his brothers lost their fighting ability and were imprisoned.

He refused to surrender and was severely tortured by the assassins sent by Concubine De.

"I failed to protect the palace, and I deserve death... Your Majesty, please don't worry about it... I'm done with this."

"Stop talking nonsense." Qin Xin replied calmly, "I just want to ask you, how many people in the Imperial Guards are trustworthy and useful? Where are those loyal Imperial Guards imprisoned? Are there any clever ones who pretend to surrender?"

There are so many imperial guards, no matter how crazy Jiang Meixu is, she won't kill them all.

The Jiang family was also short of manpower when they attacked.

Capture the leader as a deterrent, kill the tough ones, and lock up or tame the rest.

I think Jiang Meixu did this.

Upon hearing this, General Chen did not dare to delay and immediately told everything he knew.

I can't guarantee anything else, where the imperial guards are imprisoned, and who else can be trusted -

He absolutely knew.

Before leaving the palace, His Majesty had told us to preserve our military strength first when encountering unpredictable events. Don't just make meaningless sacrifices.

At that time, he thought it was just a joke from His Majesty, but who knew that he would really encounter such a "big thing".

When he was arrested, his brothers refused to submit, and some were killed. A few were dragged out and killed every day...

He didn't want them to die in vain, so he told his deputies that even if it meant enduring humiliation and heavy burdens, they had to pretend to surrender and wait for His Majesty to return to the capital so that they could lend a helping hand.

Unexpectedly, this day finally came.

General Chen, with tears in his eyes, insisted on telling Qin Xin everything he knew even though he had no strength left. Then he passed out from extreme exhaustion and weakness.

Qin Xin glanced at the two people who brought General Chen out.

"Send him out first."

General Chen knew to keep a hand, this is a good opportunity. As long as she knows the palace defense and finds reliable people, she can cooperate with the outside world...

The odds of winning are great.

The two men helped General Chen stand up and looked at Qin Xin deeply.

"My lady, please be careful."

Qin Xin nodded.

"Your Majesty, please wait for good news from me."

She made sure to let her boyfriend see her taking back their home and family and welcoming him home.
