The Regent's Koi Princess

Regent's House

The night was like a thick black curtain, quietly descending, shrouding the Regent Palace in a deep aura. The thin moonlight barely outlined a few sparse tree shadows, and the wind blew past, bringing with it waves of tiny sounds, like the subtlest whispers of nature.

Jiang Che stood in the front yard of the palace, wearing a tight nightgown that clung to his body. It was as dark as the night, but his eyes were like torches, flashing with unquestionable determination.

He looked at everyone and his voice was low and powerful, penetrating the night and striking people's hearts: "Su Yizhou, Zheng Yitian, Qi Simin, Fu Yueheng, listen to my orders!"

Four people came out in response, their expressions solemn.

"My little princess is still on her way back to the capital from Western Liao, and she is escorting Emperor Zhao Shizong, who has a hundred thousand elite soldiers under his command.

In order to prevent any accidents, I decided to go there in person.

You must act separately and quickly gather your elite troops without delaying for a moment.

Gather all the men and horses, and go with me to bring the princess back."

The four of them knew that at this moment, for their prince, even if the sky fell and the earth collapsed, it was not as important as his little princess.

So, the four of them clasped their fists and bowed to Jiang Che.

"Yes, I will take your orders."

Without further delay, the four of them turned around and left, each to gather their own troops.

When Chen Zheng was the only one left by his side, Jiang Che put his hand behind his back and looked up at the brightest star in the night sky.

It was like seeing his little princess.

"Brook"

He whispered: "I will go to see you right away."

Prime Minister's Mansion

In the old lady's bedroom.

Ever since the last incident of marrying Qi Yueran to Lin Qingyue, the old prime minister and the old lady had completely fallen out.

In addition, the old lady's maternal family was becoming increasingly decadent, and the old prime minister and the old lady had reached the point where they no longer saw each other.

Moreover, the old prime minister has issued an order not allowing the old lady, Yu Qinglian and Qi Yueran to set foot into the main courtyard again.

Even though they couldn't enter the main courtyard, they could still find out information about Lin Qingyue.

After all, up to now, everyone in the entire imperial capital knows that Lin Qingyue has returned triumphantly and is receiving rewards in the palace.

At this moment, the old lady was leaning on the beauty couch in front of the window, and Yu Qinglian was diligently feeding her lotus seed soup.

Seeing that the bowl of lotus seed soup was almost empty, Yu Qinglian picked up the handkerchief and wiped the corners of the old lady's mouth.

Passing the bowl to Qi Yueran who was standing obediently beside her, Yu Qinglian grabbed the old lady's skinny hands and asked tentatively: "Aunt, what are you going to do about the Yu family's affairs? Are you really going to leave it alone?

In the current situation, you are the only support of the Yu family. If even you don't care, the Yu family will never be able to rise again.

And there is Raner's marriage.

Her husband only gave her one month. If Ran'er couldn't marry Qingyue, she would have to become Xu Zhenshou's concubine.

Aunt, Xu Zhenshou is over sixty years old and his fourth wife has passed away. He has four sons and two daughters.

My niece heard that his eldest son is already over 40 years old. If Ran'er were to move in, how could he have a good life?"

The old lady raised her head slightly and looked at Yu Qinglian expressionlessly, neither agreeing nor stopping her.

Yu Qinglian pretended to be unintentional and secretly gave Qi Yueran a wink.

Qi Yueran understood, took a few steps forward, and knelt down in front of the old lady. She picked up the silk handkerchief to cover her face and sobbed tenderly.

"Grandma, please help Ran'er because he is so obedient.

Ran'er really likes Brother Qingyue. Ran'er has admired Brother Qingyue for a long time. Can you really bear to see Ran'er being forced to marry Xu Zhenshou, who is as old as Ran'er's grandfather, because she cannot get the love she wants?

Ran'er heard that Xu Zhenshou was extremely lustful, and so was his son.

If Ran'er married him, she would not be able to survive.

A few days ago, I heard that a maid died in his house! There was news that the maid was murdered by him and his sons.

A whole night!

In the end, the maid died of heavy bleeding. I heard that she died a tragic death.

So, grandma, you are so kind, you will not bear to see Raner enter the wolf's den, right? "

After Qi Yueran finished speaking, she was already sobbing.

Looking at the pale and haggard face, the old lady closed her eyes.

Although she didn't care who Lin Qingyue married, she hated the old prime minister.

It was such a simple matter that he could do with just a little effort, so why did he just ignore the Yu family and let it fall into decline?

In the Prime Minister's Mansion today, Xier has become the Regent Princess, and Yueer has achieved fame and honor. As long as the old Prime Minister says a word, the Yu family can prosper again.

But he just didn't care about the Yu family.

When she thought of this, the old lady felt a lump in her stomach.

She just couldn't get over it.

Yue'er will definitely be promoted this time, so why should such good things go to outsiders?

snort!

She just wanted to change the fate and luck of the Yu family.

She looked down at Qi Yueran who was kneeling on the ground, and raised her lips in a strange sneer.

When others smile, everything becomes innocent and bright.

And when she smiled, her face was covered with chrysanthemums, looking eerie in the dark night.

"Okay, since Ran'er likes Yue'er so much, grandma will grant your wish.

Grandma can allow you to be with Yue'er, but you have to figure out the method yourself.

Grandma, no matter what means you use, even if you use some special methods to climb into Yue'er's bed, as long as you can have physical contact with Yue'er, Grandma will definitely help you."

Before the old lady finished speaking, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense, as if even the air was filled with the smell of conspiracy.

Qi Yueran quickly raised her drooping eyelids, a sly gleam in her eyes, she unnoticeably adjusted her kneeling position, making her look more weak and helpless, but a barely perceptible smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

Yu Qinglian took light steps and approached the old lady, her eyes sparkling. She gently stroked the back of the old lady's hand and said softly, "Don't worry, aunt. Qinglian will do her best to help Raner realize his wish. After all, this is also for the Yu family and for our common future."

As she spoke, she gave Qi Yueran an encouraging look, and the two of them exchanged conspiratorial glances tacitly, which showed both trust in each other and excitement and anticipation for the plan that was about to be implemented.

Qi Yueran bit her lower lip lightly, with a flash of determination in her eyes, as if she had made up her mind that even if she had to step over thorns, she would reach the bright shore. She wanted to get Lin Qingyue.

The old lady was still leaning on the couch as steady as a rock. In fact, she had already seen through the mother and daughter's plan.

But she didn't intend to hinder it.

Anyway, she has never liked the first wife, and even if the truth is revealed in the end, she will have a way to remove herself.

As long as it was something the old prime minister was unwilling to do, she would go against him.

She looked at the mother and daughter and whispered, "It's getting late, you should go back and get some rest. You must keep your mouth shut about what happened today. Even if you want to keep it to yourself, you can't tell anyone."
