The blacksmith lady is killing people in the harem, and her son is responsible for it.

Qin Wan put down the mirror, took out a handkerchief, wiped the dirt off the queen's face, and tidied her hair.

When the queen was touched by Qin Wan, she carefully dodged for a moment. After finding that Qin Wan had no intention of attacking her, the queen let Qin Wan tidy her up.

Qin Wan straightened the crooked pearl hairpin on her bun and helped the queen up. "Mother, your daughter-in-law said something very disrespectful. Mother, you really don't have to hurt yourself like this because of Concubine De's matter."

The queen smashed things around and even cut her fingers.

Qin Wan pulled the queen and forced her to sit on the chair.

The queen wanted to refute, but she felt the great force on her shoulders, so her voice became weaker. However, she was still unhappy in her heart. "Everyone can say sarcastic words. Humph! If this happened to you, you might be worse than me!"

Without waiting for Qin Wan to refute, the Queen continued, "Believe it or not, if the Crown Prince now favors other women in the Eastern Palace and gives the power to run the household to someone else, you might even cause chaos in the Eastern Palace."

The queen boldly rolled her eyes at Qin Wan.

Qin Wan: “….”

Qin Wan admitted that the Queen was right about her.

If she were controlled by someone in the East Palace, she would never sit there and wait for death. She would definitely take action to deal with those women first.

She is not a good person either. The reason why everyone is living in peace now is because they have not yet touched her weak spot.

Seeing that Qin Wan had no way to refute, the Queen said rudely: "Qin, do you think you are magnanimous? You are not as good as me. At least the Marquis had a concubine before, who gave birth to Erlang."

Qin Wan asked, "Since my mother can tolerate Concubine Shu, why is she targeting Concubine De?"

Queen: “.........”

If it were an ordinary woman, she would not take her seriously.

But a few days ago, the queen found out about some things and felt really uncomfortable.

There were some reasons that the Queen didn't want Qin Wan to know, so she found another reason, "Do you know that Concubine De is pregnant? If she gives birth to a boy, there's no telling how the Emperor will pamper him?

What if that little bastard competes with the prince for the throne in the future? "

The bastard in Concubine De’s belly must not be born.

At this time, Zhao Zhen hurried to Kunning Palace and stopped the palace servants from reporting.

He moved quickly and tried to stop the Queen from punishing Qin Wan.

Unexpectedly, the queen was seen being pressed obediently on the chair by Qin Wan. Although the two were arguing, the tension had disappeared.

Zhao Zhen paused, made a gesture to the people outside the palace, and then eavesdropped at the door.

Qin Wan didn't know that Li Peilan had gone to get help for her, so she continued to persuade him, "But it's not wise for the Queen Mother to call Concubine De to punish her.

Concubine De only kneeled for a while, and her stomach is still fine now.

The Queen Mother suffered a great loss. Not only did she lose her power to rule the palace, but today's incident also made the Queen lose face.

On the contrary, Concubine Shu got a great advantage! She was able to reap the benefits of the situation. I wonder who gave the Queen Mother the idea to call Concubine De to Kunning Palace to be punished?"

Qin Wan didn't have much hope for the queen's brain. When the queen was young, she must have been a stupid beauty.

The Queen didn't take Concubine Shu seriously, and didn't say who gave her the idea. She snorted coldly, "Concubine Shu is an honest person, so let her take care of her. As long as it's not that bitch Concubine De, it's fine!"

Qin Wan shook her head, "Mother, I heard that the Second Prince is also quite favored by the Emperor.

If she was really thinking about the Crown Prince, the ones she should be worried about are Concubine Shu and the Second Prince. The Second Prince is close in age to the Crown Prince and is already an adult.

As for the baby in Concubine De's belly, regardless of whether it is a boy or a girl, it is smaller than a little lion!"

After hearing Qin Wan's analysis, the Queen also had some doubts in her heart, "Crown Princess, do you think the Second Prince might seize Da Lang's throne?"

The Queen just said that the Emperor passed the throne to Concubine De's child, but that was just a passing comment.

Deep down, she didn't think that the emperor would pass the throne to anyone other than Zhao Zhen.

As for the father-son relationship between the Emperor and the Crown Prince, the Queen is very confident, because Dalang was raised by the Marquis himself!

Among the three sons, Dalang is the most important to the Marquis.

The Queen still thought it was unlikely. "No, no, the Emperor doesn't like Erlang, and Erlang is no match for Dalang! How can he compare with Dalang?"

Qin Wan saw that the queen was still so naive, "Mother, why do you think my second brother agreed to marry Pan Yanshuang from the Duke of Suguo's mansion? She was a concubine of the previous dynasty, and she was considered a second-married woman!"

Although there were divorced women who remarried in ancient times, very few of them could become the prince's concubines.

When the Second Prince agreed to marry Pan Yanshuang, he knew that Pan Yanru, who was originally the Crown Prince's concubine, would not be able to enter the Eastern Palace.

Pan Yanshuang is five years older than the second prince. To the second prince, she is an old woman.

The queen knew something about the inside story. She sneered, "What if the second son doesn't marry me? The two of them got together at the palace banquet on New Year's Eve. The second son has no choice but to take responsibility! Humph!"

Qin Wan shook her head again, "Mother, Pan Yanshuang is backed by the Duke of Suguo Mansion, which also has military power. The Second Prince has gotten a great advantage this time!"

The Queen thought of Zhao Zhen's original intention to marry a daughter of the Pan family, and laughed, "Oh? Since you know the importance of the Pan family's daughter, how did you know that when Pan Yanru was not admitted to the Eastern Palace, she happily celebrated in Yichun Palace."

Qin Wan: “…”

Qin Wan touched her nose awkwardly.

Seeing that she had suppressed Qin Wan's arrogance, the Queen became proud again, "You, when you say sarcastic words, you have a lot of tricks. Now that it's you, aren't you jealous too?"

Qin Wan did not deny it either, "Mother, I will not refute what you said. I really don't like Zhao Zhen favoring other women!"

The Queen snorted in annoyance, "Hmph, then put yourself in her shoes. I just dealt with Concubine De, and you come to ruin my show!"

Qin Wan shook her head, "Mother, I never said you couldn't deal with Concubine De. On the contrary, I support you in dealing with Concubine De, but you can't use such harsh methods!"

The queen became interested. "Oh? What good idea do you have? Tell me now!"

Seeing that Qin Wan didn't say anything, she urged again: "Why? Don't you want to help me? Don't forget, we are the closest people. I am the prince's biological mother. We are all for Dalang's good!"

Qin Wan found it funny to see the Queen's hasty statement, "Mother, let me make it clear first, I made a suggestion, please don't be angry."

Zhao Zhen, who was eavesdropping outside the door, also pricked up his ears. He was really curious about how Qin Wan would deal with Concubine De.

In Zhao Zhen's opinion, Qin Wan was too straightforward and not good at conspiracies and intrigues.

Qin Wan coughed lightly, "Mother, I think we can take advantage of this selection to choose a few more beautiful women for father!"

Zhao Zhen: “….”

Zhao Zhen was worried about Qin Wan outside the door. What kind of weird idea was this?
