On the day of my tragic death, I was reborn and married to the Regent

"What?" the two exclaimed.

"When Nian Nian left, I said that General Xiao is not a good person and we must not provoke him."

Aunt Liu asked, "Where is the person?"

"It's just outside the palace, but they can't get in. They were stopped by His Royal Highness Prince Yan's men."

Zhang heaved a sigh of relief: "Oh, yes, yes, Niannian said that His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan sent people. Fortunately, His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan made preparations for a rainy day."

"Hurry up and give orders. Everyone in the mansion should try not to go out these few days. What about the master and the young lady?"

"Not back yet."

Aunt Liu quickly comforted her: "Don't worry, Madam. They probably haven't had time to look for the Second Master yet. We'll just have to wait for them to come back."

The two waited at home for a long time, and finally around noon, Jiang Dexuan came back with his two children.

As soon as he came back, he heard about what happened in the mansion. Jiang Dexuan immediately sent someone to the school to ask for leave. He would not go to the teacher for the next two days and could just read at home.

"I've said it every year before that someone might come and cause trouble, and now they've really come."

Suddenly remembering the people in the backyard, he quickly ordered his servants: "Send more people to the backyard, don't let anyone take the opportunity to escape."

Xiao Yinnan's men outside wanted to force their way in, but the people guarding the gate were King Yan's men. Even if they had a hundred times the courage, they would not dare to do so. They could only go back in disgrace to report the news.

The cups and plates in the room were broken all over the floor. Xiao Yinnan gritted his teeth and asked, "Prince Yan, Prince Yan, why do you always oppose him?"

If she wasn't for Prince Yan, Niannian would have married him, and now she should be in love with him. And the emperor actually protects Prince Yan everywhere!

Protect him, the more you protect him, the more he will destroy you!

"Is there any news from the Crown Princess?"

"General, the Crown Princess has always wanted to see you, but there has been no news from the Crown Prince."

Jian Songyue just wanted to see him. Such a cheap woman, did she think he really liked her?

As for the prince, this coward, even though he is disabled, still wants to be the emperor. It is simply a pipe dream.

"However, today the Crown Prince went to the Queen's Palace and has not come out since."

The queen has always lived in seclusion and rarely appeared. The prince would stay in the queen's palace one day every month.

"General, why don't we start with the Queen? She is the biological mother of the Crown Prince and also the biological mother of Prince Yan. If we can control the Queen, wouldn't it be..."

"Shut up!" Xiao Yinnan was in a bad mood.

Everyone knows that the Queen is out of favor and has bad relations with both the Crown Prince and the Prince of Yan. What can be done by holding a Queen who is powerless and has no real power hostage?

Your Majesty wishes that the Queen would die right now. As for the Crown Prince, he is a ruthless man. If it weren't for his crippled legs, he would be really difficult to deal with.

......

In the Queen's Palace.

The prince was drinking tea in the outer room while the queen was resting in the palace.

The palace maids were used to it. The prince would come once a month, but every time he came he would never go in. He would just greet them from outside and then sit in the outer hall to drink tea.

He neither went in nor out, just sat there, and the palace servants didn't dare to speak.

Suddenly, footsteps were heard outside. The prince immediately put down his tea and looked at the virtuous concubine. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he bowed solemnly to the virtuous concubine who came in.

With a joyful expression, he laughed, "The virtuous concubine is here?"

The virtuous concubine just nodded lightly and was about to walk into the palace, but was stopped by the prince.

"Empress Xianfei, can you...can you talk to me?"

The palace maids retreated silently, leaving only the Crown Prince, Concubine Xian, and a few of their confidants outside.

Xianfei looked a little uneasy. She was helped to sit down by the nanny and asked, "Your Highness, if there is anything you want to say, please tell me."

The prince immediately had the box handed over, and said in a flattering tone: "I asked someone to find this for you. I heard that your legs and feet are not in good condition. If you use this as a hot compress, you will feel better at night."

Upon hearing this, Concubine Xian's expression changed drastically. She clasped her hands on the table and asked in a deep voice, "How did you know?"

The prince immediately said, "Don't misunderstand, Concubine Xian. I'm not trying to threaten you. I... just care about you. Please accept it."

Xian Fei didn't move, but sighed: "Your Highness, this thing is valuable, you should take it back, I don't want it."

The prince lowered his head in frustration: "I just... want to be nice to you."

"I know you're in a bad situation in the harem, and your father doesn't even visit you. Have those people in the palace treated you harshly? If so, you must tell me, and I'll help you deal with them."

"I can't visit you often, and you don't want to talk to me much, so I can only wait here to see you. I don't dare to come often, really..."

The more the prince spoke, the more the virtuous concubine's heart sank. It shouldn't be like this.

If anyone outside heard what the prince said, they would all die.

"do not talk."

The prince asked: "My Lady Consort, I..."

The virtuous concubine couldn't bear to listen any longer, "Prince, stop talking!"

The nanny beside Concubine Xian quickly patted her back to help her calm down, and said boldly, "Your Highness, please don't say anything."

The prince finally stopped talking and looked at Concubine Xian's embarrassed look, and finally said nothing more.

"I talk too much."

The virtuous concubine calmed down, looked at the prince, and said slowly: "Your Highness, please don't come here again. If you want to see the queen, just go in directly. There is no need to say such words to me."

"I'm not here to see the Queen, I'm here to see you."

"Do you know what will happen to us if what happened today gets out?"

The prince said anxiously: "Don't worry, Concubine Xian, I won't tell anyone about this. I definitely won't tell anyone. I won't harm you, so, can you..."

"No." Concubine Xian said coldly.

"I am His Majesty's virtuous concubine, and I am close friends with your mother. In fact, I watched you grow up, but my child is dead. You are not my son, so you don't have to be so filial to me."

The prince's face became increasingly ugly, and he lowered his head without saying a word.

Xian Fei stood up and said calmly, "Your Highness, please go back. I'm going in to talk to the Queen."

The Crown Prince left in disappointment. The nanny beside Concubine Xian couldn't bear it, "Your Majesty, how about you say something nice next time? This old servant sees that His Royal Highness is sad. He really cares about you, Your Highness. He is a good child."

"Heh," Xian Fei sneered, "He cares about me? He's sad? He's a good kid?"

"How can a man who dares to harm even his own brothers for his own position be considered a good person? Don't look at him pretending to be kind and righteous now. The Queen and I know exactly what kind of person he is."

Even if his own mother blocked his way, he would not show mercy. If such a person is soft-hearted, he will be swallowed up without leaving a trace.

She still had important things to do and didn't want to waste time on him, as that would only make her die faster. She couldn't die before achieving her goal.
