Quick Wear: The Short-lived Female Supporting Character Does Not Want to Be a Heartthrob

"Don't worry, Queen Mother. I will take care of the rest myself."

It turned out that Shangguan Yunshang had made up her mind. She would immediately send people out to look for the two people mentioned just now. Even if Queen Shangguan Yan was dead now, she could still ascend to the final high position with the thing in her hand.

Afterwards, the second princess Shangguan Yunshang took her things and went out, and Wan Ning and the others in the yard were also taken away.

However, the guards did not withdraw and continued to watch outside the hall and inside the courtyard.

Only Empress Shangguan Yan was left sitting alone on the chair. She did not stand up, but sat quietly.

The reason why the Second Princess Shangguan Yunshang did not ask Shangguan Yan to stamp the imperial seal was because she had searched the entire place thoroughly, even the Zichen Hall and the Qinzheng Hall, but could not find the imperial seal at all.

Moreover, Shangguan Yunshang's own spies also saw with their own eyes yesterday that the chief steward Fu Shun took the imperial seal box and went out.

So when Second Princess Shangguan Yunchu heard Empress Shangguan Yan say that the imperial seal was not here, she did not argue too much.

Not long after, muffled groans were heard in the yard. It turned out that the soldiers on guard suddenly fell down.

The rest were about to take out knives to defend themselves, but were immediately confronted by the Royal Guards who broke in.

The battle ended without making much noise.

Upon seeing this, the leader Shangguan Yue immediately went into the palace to report to Empress Shangguan Yan.

Not long after, two people came in. One was General Zeng Chen, who was supposed to be stationed in the southwest to guard the border, and the other was Xiao Guijun's brother Xiao Xin.

They came to take Empress Shangguan Yan to the main hall. Shangguan Yan did not struggle but immediately followed them away.

However, Shangguan Yan was chatting with the two of them along the way, and they told the truth about whatever they could.

Finally, Xiao Xin said, "Your Majesty, don't worry. After the Second Princess ascends the throne, those old ministers who followed you will still be treated with favor. But it's uncertain whether they can come back."

Hearing this, Shangguan Yan smiled and said, "Okay, let's wait and see."

Even though she was about to be strangled to death, Empress Shangguan Yan remained calm and composed, not panicking at all.

Although Xiao Xin admired Shangguan Yan's magnanimity and she was indeed a good monarch, they had been planning for so long, it was not something they could just stop.

So in Guangming Palace, where she usually met with court officials, Empress Shangguan Yan was forced to write an edict to abdicate and enthrone the Crown Princess and the Second Princess as the new Empress.

The princes, sons and daughters of the royal family were all brought to the palace.

Faced with this farce, Empress Shangguan Yan felt heartbroken and angry, but not afraid.

Just when the Second Princess and her supporters were running out of patience and were about to massacre all the royal family members, the commander of the Imperial Guards, Chao Gang, rushed in from outside. Shangguan Yue, who was hiding among the soldiers in the hall, also took action with his men.

It turned out that after they dealt with the people guarding Queen Shangguan Yan, they changed into those people's clothes, and followed the people from the Second Princess all the way to the hall.

At this time, the attack from both inside and outside caught the Second Princess and her companions off guard.

The hall immediately became chaotic. In the confusion, Qing Shijun found Wan Ning and untied the ropes on her.

After that, the two of them tried their best to dodge and avoid being hurt by the swords.

Wan Ning seized the opportunity and pulled Xu Qingyun to the Queen's side. At this moment, the Queen had the most guards around her who could protect their safety.

But after entering the safe zone, Xu Qingyun was afraid that Wan Ning would be frightened, so he covered her eyes to prevent her from seeing.

Wan Ning didn't care. She pushed Qing Shijun's hand away and held his big hand.

At this time, Empress Shangguan Yan saw the eldest princess in the melee. She was injured, but she was still protecting Queen Feng behind her.

With a wave of her hand, the Queen ordered, "Bring the eldest princess and the others here."

Although the eldest princess's previous disappointing behavior did hurt her heart. However, this was also the heir she had worked hard to cultivate for more than 20 years. She had invested too much effort in Shangguan Chuxue.

Soon the eldest princess and Empress Xie Liang were brought to the empress. The eldest princess Shangguan Chuxue said to Shangguan Yan with shame: "I feel guilty, so let me show my filial piety."

Regardless of the blood still flowing from her body, she jumped down again and started fighting.

Shangguan Yan looked at the eldest princess Shangguan Chuxue's back for a while, then looked away.

Seeing that she was in a disadvantageous situation, the Second Princess Shangguan Yunshang became anxious.

She came out from nowhere and put a knife to an old man's neck: "Stop, everyone stop."

Wan Ning recognized him as the empress's biological father.

The second princess wanted to take hostages to force the queen to surrender.

As expected, when the queen saw her biological father, she took two steps.

"Rebellious son, what are you doing?"

When the Second Princess heard the Queen's voice, she also replied coldly: "My daughter is imitating you, Queen. Do you recognize who this is?"

"How dare you, you bastard."

The Second Princess couldn't hear anything else, she just stared at the Queen and said, "You are old now, you should retire and enjoy your retirement."

"I already have the imperial edict to confer the title of Crown Princess, and I can ascend the throne immediately. Your Majesty, all it takes is a word from you."

Lao Guijun's mind has been confused for a long time. He can't recognize anyone he sees on a daily basis and is completely unconscious.

Suddenly seeing so many people in the hall and it seemed very lively, he immediately clapped his hands to indicate that he wanted to join in.

Seeing that the old man was stupid, the second princess threatened him with a knife: "Don't move, or you will be in trouble."

She looked at the Queen Shangguan Yan again: "Your Majesty, do you agree or disagree?"

Everyone present despised the Second Princess Shangguan Yunchu for holding an old man hostage to threaten the Empress, but they were worried about the Empress because that old man was the Empress's biological father.

Empress Shangguan Yan paused for a moment, then suddenly raised her voice and said, "Okay, I promise you. But you have to come here. When you sit on this seat yourself, I will pass the throne to you."

The second princess was not stupid either: "I won't go over, I will write the imperial edict now."

As she spoke, she took the knife and slashed it across the old nobleman's neck, which immediately frightened the other people in the hall.

Empress Shangguan Yan also saw the red blood on her father's neck, but she still frowned and insisted: "As long as you sit in this seat, I will write it immediately."

Seeing that Shangguan Yan insisted, the Second Princess was a little tempted, but Xiao Xin beside her spoke out to stop her, telling her not to fall into the Queen's trap.

But the Second Princess was anxious, she wanted to sit in that position too much: "Everyone, put down your weapons and withdraw."

"Right now, if you don't listen to me, don't blame me for my shaking hands."

As soon as the Second Princess Shangguan Yunshang said this, all the pressure was placed on the Empress.

The queen did not hesitate at all, "Okay, listen to her."

At this time, everyone in the hall spoke out to dissuade the Queen, and some even said that they would protect the Queen even at the risk of their lives.
