Marry the villain and the whole court kneels down and calls her the queen
Chapter 166 Shooting yourself in the foot
After waiting for half the night, the assassin didn't come back, and there was no movement in the princess's yard.
Chen knew that the assassination attempt had failed again.
Whether it was frame-up or assassination, Chen seemed to be unable to do anything to Princess Qi.
And her daughter Qin Qing's reputation is getting worse and worse.
Chen was getting a little impatient.
Even Qin Qing became anxious.
"Mother, it's impossible for Su Man to deal with the assassin alone. We spent a lot of money to hire him. There must be a master in the prince's courtyard who is not only protecting the prince, but also protecting her."
Chen nodded slightly. "Indeed, let's go directly to the prince's room tomorrow and take a look. I heard that the prince is about to wake up. No matter what, when the prince wakes up, the person he will see must be you."
Qin Qing was stolen from her room in the middle of the night and placed in the room of the second young master Mei.
The second son of the Mei family was murdered, and the murderer has not been found to this day.
Qin Qing’s reputation is ruined. Apart from marrying the King of Qi who has not yet awakened, other men may not be interested in her.
Besides, if the King of Qi could really wake up, marrying him would be a good choice.
Chen thought about it and at this moment, she could only use her last idea.
The next day, early in the morning, Chen brought Qin Qing and the maids and servants from the Qin family and rushed to Zhao Zhuoxi's room in a hurry.
As soon as she saw Jiang Jiu, Chen pointed at him without saying a word.
"Arrest her and send her to the Ministry of Justice. She is the murderer of Mr. Mei."
Before Chunhua, Qiuyue and others in the yard could react.
Chen's maidservant grabbed Jiang Jiu and walked out.
Qiuyue reacted the fastest and quickly blocked Chen's way.
"You can't leave. You say our princess is the murderer of Mr. Mei. Where is the evidence? If there is evidence, why didn't the Ministry of Justice come to arrest her?"
After all, he is from the Princess's Mansion, has seen the world, and knows the basic procedures of the Ministry of Justice in handling cases.
Chen slapped Qiuyue, and her face became red and swollen instantly.
"A slave girl isn't qualified to ask me these questions. If I say she's the murderer, then she is... Tie her up and gag her. I'll teach her a lesson first..."
This is to torture the princess.
Chunhua and the others also disagreed.
"Who dares to make a move? You are just the second wife of the Qin family. You don't even have an imperial decree. Why do you want to arrest our princess..."
Chen brought people today to ruin the reputation of Princess Qi.
How could he be stopped by just a few maids?
"What kind of princess is she? She's a murderer. Someone, take her away..."
Chen was furious and was about to leave with his men.
At this moment, a cold voice was heard.
"I wonder who dares to touch her..."
The voice was low and cold, who else could it be but Zhao Zhuoxi.
He woke up a little late and thought something had happened in the yard.
Unexpectedly, Chen was so bold that she dared to capture his princess in the palace.
Zhao Zhuoxi stood under the eaves, wearing a purple long gown. He was tall and imposing, and scared the Qin family servants so much that their legs and feet went limp.
Chen was even more dumbfounded. Why did Zhao Zhuoxi wake up at this time?
"She, she is the murderer who killed Mr. Mei..."
Before she could even utter the word "hand", Zhao Zhuoxi's hands were already clasped around Chen's neck.
"Without any evidence, you are slandering the princess. I will strangle you to death right now. Believe it or not..."
The legendary King of Qi, a ruthless killer, murdered countless wealthy families in the capital in a rage when the palace exploded...
Not to mention killing Chen, even if Qin Yuan was killed, the emperor would not dare to say a single unpleasant word.
Only then did Chen feel scared.
She couldn't breathe, her throat made a gurgling sound, and her face turned purple.
Just when she thought she was going to die.
Qin Qing knelt down with a thud and hugged Zhao Zhuoxi's legs.
"Your Majesty, please show some mercy. This is all my fault. It was my idea..."
"I have always secretly admired the prince and wanted to serve and take care of him, but the princess has been guarding the courtyard and won't let me get close..."
"I really have no other choice but to come up with such a despicable idea. I beg Your Highness to consider my deep affection and release my mother..."
As soon as Qin Qing said this, Chen knew that she had been defeated.
She thought to herself, "What a fool!" How could she admit that...
But now, she had no choice but to kneel down as her knees went weak.
"I was just trying to scare the princess. I didn't really mean to send her to the Ministry of Justice. I just wanted to give Qing'er a chance to take care of the prince..."
Watching this mother and daughter acting out their scenes, Zhao Zhuoxi felt a little nauseous.
With a cold snort, he finally let go.
"She is my princess, and you are not the ones who can slander her. Get out of this palace..."
Chen sighed helplessly, pulled Qin Qing along with her, and left the palace in disgrace.
As soon as she returned to the Qin family, Chen was called over by Old Madam Qin.
"Kneel down."
Chen and Qin Qing had no choice but to kneel down.
Madam Qin looked at them with disdain and said, "As a man, it's best to win the heart. You blindly try to harm the princess, which is a very bad idea. Don't forget, she is the granddaughter of Princess Zhaoyang."
Chen frowned helplessly: "Daughter-in-law, I didn't expect the prince to wake up so quickly..."
Old Madam Qin said nothing and waved her hand.
A woman who looked almost exactly like Jiang Jiu walked slowly over from the back hall.
Not only was Chen shocked, but everyone who had seen Jiang Jiu was also shocked.
"Ah, mother, this, this is..."
Old Madam Qin didn't say anything, and the nanny beside her began to explain.
"After the death of the Prince of Qi's concubine, the old lady sent people everywhere to search for someone who looked like her. She mobilized almost all the manpower in the palace. The hard work paid off... We finally found her..."
Chen's heart was filled with joy: "What is mother's plan?"
Madam Qin smiled confidently and said, "Even though Qing'er from our family can't become the principal wife of the Prince of Qi, she still has a chance of becoming a concubine. In a few days, have your father invite the prince into the palace for a chat..."
"Her name is Qiqi. From now on, she will be Qing'er's personal maid. Bring her back to the courtyard and train her well. As long as the prince sees this girl, Qing'er will be able to enter the palace in no time..."
Chen was still a little worried: "But what if the prince only wants this maid?"
Madam Qin glanced at her sideways and said, "The indenture is in your hands. If you don't want to give it to him, what else can he do? Marrying a concubine as a concubine is the only option left for him."
Chen was left with only joy in her heart.
"My daughter-in-law will definitely teach this girl a lesson..."
Madam Qin was still worried and repeatedly reminded him, "Remember, winning the heart is the most important thing. This applies to both Prince Yu and this girl."
Chen knew that she couldn't hit or scold this girl who looked very much like Jiang Jiu, she could only coax her.
Old Madam Qin asked someone to send Qiqi to Chen's yard.
When Qin Qing saw her, he couldn't help but mutter in his heart.
"Mother, so this is what the Prince of Qi's concubine looks like. She's not pretty at all. I don't think she's prettier than Su Man. What does the prince like about her? Could it be the business behind her?"
