After rebirth, I married the emperor's uncle and overthrew my ex-husband's kingdom

"Since I brought you here, what evidence do I need?"

The prince kicked her to the ground and gave a look to Zhu San who was standing beside him.

Zhu San understood and walked to the maid and picked up the bowl of black medicine on the tray.

Concubine Zhang looked at the bowl of medicine, stepped back in horror with her eyes wide open, "Your Highness, it really wasn't me who did it, I am innocent!"

The prince glared at her coldly, lifted up his wide sleeves and sniffed under his nose.

Concubine Zhang's eyes suddenly widened and she could no longer utter a word to beg for mercy.

Bai Yaoyao watched Zhu San pour the bowl of black medicine into her mouth, and finally a hint of satisfaction of revenge appeared on her face.

"what!!!"

Concubine Zhang collapsed to the ground, and after a moment she held her stomach and wailed in pain.

"Cover her mouth and take her back to the East Palace."

The prince frowned, his eyes full of disgust.

The Changchun Palace was full of the prince's men. Zhu San had someone cover Concubine Zhang's mouth with a cloth, then found a black cloth to wrap her up, and quietly slipped out through a small door.

The death of a concubine is just like a raindrop falling into a pond, which cannot cause any waves.

The prince walked to Bai Yaoyao, the gloomy look on his face faded away, and his eyes were full of pity.

Bai Yaoyao threw herself into the prince's arms, holding his waist tightly with both hands, and said in a choked voice, "Your Highness, it's all my fault for being useless and failing to protect our child."

"You should take good care of yourself, you will have children in the future."

The prince gently put his arm around her shoulders, frowned slightly, his tone was as gentle and doting as usual, but his face was cold.

After pacifying Bai Yaoyao, the prince returned to the East Palace.

Zhu San stepped forward and asked, "Your Highness, how should we deal with Concubine Zhang's body?"

"Tomorrow, go and inform Lord Zhang that Concubine Zhang suddenly fell ill and passed away."

"Yes."

Zhu San obeyed the order.

Early the next morning, when the prince came back from court, the maid from Concubine Zhang's courtyard ran over in a panic.

"Your Highness, our queen is missing!"

The prince's expression suddenly changed.

"Didn't I tell you to keep watch?" Zhu San asked anxiously, "When did you disappear?"

"I, I don't know either."

The maid lowered her head and trembled.

When Concubine Zhang was carried back, her body was covered in blood. She went forward to take a look and found that she was already dead.

Master Zhu asked her to stay, but she was too scared at the time, so she just stayed in the yard. When she opened the door this morning, she found that the bed was empty.

The prince looked sinister and shouted, "Send someone to find him!"

The atmosphere in the East Palace was gloomy, and on the Queen's side, the Third Prince also looked a little unhappy.

"You bastard, how dare you touch those things now!"

"Mother, I have no choice but to do this."

The Third Prince had a solemn look on his face. He had not expected that the Crown Prince's men would discover the matter so quickly.

In the past, he had the support of the General's Mansion and received a lot of money, so he had never worried about money.

The queen sat in her chair, thinking about how to deal with the situation.

After a moment, her eyes lit up, "The only solution now is to make the prince too busy to take care of this matter, so that you have time to deal with it!"

"Mother, what's your plan?"

The Third Prince wanted to suppress the Crown Prince by claiming that he had caused chaos in the palace, but now the key evidence is not complete and he has to wait for some time.

"Didn't Su Hua bring people to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion to make trouble on the first day of the new year this year, saying that Bai Youyou killed her son Jiang Hui?"

"I have asked someone to investigate this matter, and Jiang Hui is in the mansion."

The Third Prince certainly knew about this, and he immediately sent someone to infiltrate the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion to investigate the matter.

However, Jiang Hui was safe and sound in the mansion, so he put it aside for the time being.

"Su Hua loves her son as much as her life, and I believe this is not groundless. I'm afraid that the Marquis of Yong'an is using someone else's body as a substitute, and the one in the mansion is just a fake!"

The queen sneered, "Besides, with that dandy character, how could he stay in the mansion peacefully?"

The Third Prince thought about it and stood up. "I will ask someone to check it out right now!"

"and many more."

The queen called him and asked the nanny to bring over a set of red jewel head ornaments that she had prepared.

"Send this thing to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion and give it to Bai Youyou, and say it's a reward from me."

The Third Prince took the brocade box from the nanny, and the Queen patted his hands, "Now our greatest support is the Zhenguo Mansion. Fortunately, the Zhenguo Mansion and the Yong'an Marquis have a grudge for killing their son, so we don't have to worry about them rebelling."

She changed the subject and said, "But if you want the Duke of Zhenguo to stand by you forever, there is a better way."

The Third Prince understood what the Queen meant and frowned, "Father will definitely not agree to this."

"It's a matter of mutual consent between a man and a woman. If that little girl insists on marrying you, the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion will naturally find a way to get your father's consent. Bai Youyou is already fifteen years old, and is also at the age to get married. What you need to do now is to coax that little girl into your arms."

A hint of contempt and self-mockery flashed in Queen Qingling's eyes.

It is the most difficult thing for people in the world to get through the barrier of love, especially for women. If they fall in love with someone, they will be willing to do so even if it means they are like moths to a flame.

Wasn't she the same in the past?

"My son, I know."

The third prince brought some things to the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion, and it was the old lady who met him.

"Madam, my mother feels deeply guilty about the previous palace banquet. This headgear was my mother's dowry, and she specifically asked me to pass it on to Miss Bai."

"I dare not accept the dowry of the Queen. Please take it back to the palace and return it to the Queen."

The old lady's attitude was lukewarm.

If Youyou hadn't gotten the news about the palace banquet in advance, the consequences would have been disastrous!

The Third Prince was embarrassed for a moment. He smiled and said, "This is a gift from my mother. Please don't refuse it, old lady."

"Since it is a reward from Her Majesty, I would like to thank Her Majesty on behalf of my granddaughter."

Nanny Jiang, who was standing beside the old lady, walked over, picked up the headgear on the table, and then stood behind her.

The Third Prince glanced towards the door and asked casually, "Did Miss Bai go to Yun Ni Fang again today?"

The old lady paused for a moment, then sighed helplessly, "The food and fodder for the hundreds of thousands of troops on the border, as well as this huge Zhenguo Mansion, are now all supported by her young shoulders."

The Third Prince was also aware of the current situation of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion. He pondered for a moment and asked sincerely, "Can this Prince help?"

The old lady gave him a scrutinizing look and said, "Your Highness is thoughtful. We can still hold on for the time being, so we won't bother you."

The Third Prince was not annoyed by his rebuff, but smiled gently: "If the old lady has anything to do, just send someone to the Prince's Mansion to find me."

The old lady was about to refuse when she heard footsteps outside.

Bai Youyou walked into the room in plain clothes. Although her face looked a little tired, her eyes were clear and bright.

Seeing the Third Prince was slightly startled. "Third Prince."
