I took over after the heroine of the abusive novel ran away

What surprised Fang Qingci was that Prince Cheng's rebellion failed and he was executed, Emperor Ming failed to achieve his goal and was seriously injured, but Prince An was not implicated and escaped unscathed.

Prince An, the sixth prince, was very cautious. He had secretly defected to Prince Cheng and had hidden among the princes before the success, without revealing anything wrong.

His plan was to wait until King Cheng killed Qin Yu, King Ping and other princes, and then turn against them to rescue Emperor Ming and kill King Cheng.

As long as the other princes died or were disabled, Emperor Ming had no choice but to pass the throne to him.

But unfortunately, Fang Qingci was not deceived by him. On the surface, her grandfather did not mobilize troops into the palace, but in fact, people were secretly brought in by Prince Duan.

So in the final contest, the two sides were evenly matched, and King Cheng was captured by Qin Yu. Seeing that the situation was not right, King An, in order to get rid of suspicion, stood in front of Emperor Ming when King Cheng was about to assassinate Emperor Ming. He was stabbed in the shoulder, and then bravely cut King Cheng's neck with a knife to silence him despite the serious injury.

As for Emperor Ming being seriously injured, it was because he was accidentally shot by arrows in the chaos.

Fang Qingci admired Prince An's reaction ability.

Emperor Ming lost more than he gained and is now seriously injured in bed. At the recommendation of court officials, Qin Yu is temporarily appointed as regent.

At this point, the situation is almost clear. If nothing unexpected happens, the next emperor will be Qin Yu.

The status of Prince Huai's Mansion immediately increased, and Fang Qingci, the Princess of Huai, became very popular.

Fang Qingci remained very low-key, staying at home with her child.

Although the clouds have cleared and the rain has stopped, the situation is still not completely clear.

Emperor Ming had not given up yet, and tried to use himself as a trap, joining forces with Concubine Yun and Prince Ping to plot against Qin Yu to poison him and commit treason.

Unfortunately, what was very dramatic was that when Emperor Ming and Concubine Yun were plotting, Concubine Hui, who had returned to Xuande Hall to get something, accidentally overheard them.

Listening to the sweet words between Emperor Ming and Concubine Yun plotting to harm herself and Qin Yu, Concubine Hui felt as if a basin of ice-cold water was poured on her head, chilling her to the core.

That night, the candles in the Pepper Room were lit all night long, and Concubine Hui did not sleep all night.

Since she entered the palace, Emperor Ming had been very fond of her. Over the years, she had been the most favored concubine in the harem, and no one had ever been able to surpass her. Even the empress was courteous to her.

Concubine Hui always thought that Emperor Ming loved her. She always remembered that Emperor Ming once told her that she was his wife. If the empress had not been Emperor Ming's first wife, and had not been virtuous and generous for so many years and had never made any mistakes, and Emperor Ming was a man who cherished old times, the position of empress might have been hers long ago. Later, when the empress passed away, Concubine Hui also expected Emperor Ming to make her empress, but unfortunately Emperor Ming never said a word.

With decades of undiminished favor, it is impossible to say that Concubine Hui had no feelings for Emperor Ming.

But now she realized that all the love was fake. It was just exploitation and deception, but there was no sincerity.

Emperor Ming loved the bitch Concubine Yun the most, and he was even willing to kill her and her child in order to allow her son to succeed to the throne.

Concubine Hui smashed the heart-shaped pendant given to her by Emperor Ming, which represented the token of their love. She made up her mind to strike first. Since Emperor Ming treated her like this, he should not blame her.

After Concubine Hui passed the message to Qin Yu and the Chen family, she went to Xuande Hall with a bowl of poisoned chicken soup before Emperor Ming could take action.

In front of Emperor Ming, he strangled Concubine Yun, hacked Prince Ping to death, and then poisoned Emperor Ming to death.

Regarding the death of Emperor Ming, the truth announced to the public was that Prince Ping and Concubine Yun murdered Emperor Ming in an attempt to seize the throne.

With the sound of twenty-nine funeral bells in the imperial city, Emperor Ming’s reign came to an end.

Prince An, who had originally been trying to use his merit in saving the emperor to stir up a fight between Prince Ping and Qin Yu, could only suffer the consequences and recuperate.

With the right time, right place and right people, Qin Yu finally got his wish and ascended the throne with the support of everyone.

After the funeral ceremony for the late emperor, all the talents from the Huai Palace were brought into the palace.

Fang Qingci was canonized as queen and moved into Kunning Palace.

Chen Yao was canonized as Shufei and moved into the Jiaofang Palace, which was also the palace where Concubine Hui lived in the past.

Yunniang was conferred the title of Jieyushi, the second prince's biological mother Qinghong was conferred the title of Guipin, and the third prince's biological mother Yuexiang was conferred the title of Concubine.

The rest of Qin Yu's nominal women were given titles of beauties or talented women.

Not long after Qin Yu ascended the throne, Concubine Hui died.

The Heart-shaped Pendant that Emperor Ming gave to Concubine Hui contained a chronic poison. Concubine Hui had been wearing it every day and the poison had already penetrated into her heart. Her health had not been very good over the years. In addition, she was shocked by the sudden knowledge of the truth. She fell ill after Qin Yu ascended the throne and passed away within two months.

Half a year had passed before everything was back on track.

Qin Yu finally found time to deal with Fang Ruoyan's problem.

I don't know if it's because of Concubine Hui's help in public and Fang Qingci's secretly fanning the flames, but everything went too smoothly, making Qin Yu unaware of his own abilities.

Once you reach a high position, you start to let yourself go before you even have a firm footing.

Qin Yu secretly left the palace, and not long after, news came from Prince An's Mansion that Concubine Fang had died suddenly.

As a result, a new concubine, Xuan Guifei, was added to the harem by the emperor, who was brought back from the common people.

As soon as she entered the palace, she was named a noble concubine. She did not need to pay respects to the empress and accompanied the emperor every day and was inseparable.

The emperor's favor for Concubine Xuan attracted attention from both the former court and the harem.

Fang Qingci couldn't help but shake his head after seeing this. If he remembered the date correctly, Qin Yu was still in mourning period.

The one-year mourning period had not yet ended, and the ministers were suppressing their anxiety and not mentioning the beauty pageant, but Qin Yu himself could not wait any longer.

I don’t know if Concubine Hui’s coffin lid can hold down the weight.

The body is still warm! This son has forgotten all the efforts made by his mother and is eager to make his beloved wife legitimate.

That day, Chen Yao ran to Kunning Palace angrily to find Fang Qingci.

Before I saw anyone, I heard Chen Yao wailing outside, "Empress, you have to make the decision for me!"

Fang Qingci couldn't help rubbing her ears. When Chen Yao was angry, she liked to make those artificial noises, which simply destroyed her ears.

"Speak to me properly!"

Chen Yao was so angry that her mouth was puffed up, but she still had some rationality and remembered to squat and bow to Chen Yao. "Your Majesty, the Queen."

Without waiting for Fang Qingci to shout, she couldn't wait to file a complaint.

"Empress, please go and persuade the Emperor! The Emperor is crazy!"

Fang Qingci: ...

Before Fang Qingci could reply, Chen Yao continued with an angry look on her face, "Do you know who that Concubine Xuan is? She is actually the concubine of Prince An. The emperor has all kinds of women, but he actually allowed a married woman to enter the palace and doted on her so much. The emperor must have been bewitched by that vixen. You should go and persuade him!"
