What the Queen meant was that she didn't look like you, and it seemed that seeing that everyone else had the same idea as her, she had a reason.

The Queen glanced at Shangguan Qing and spoke slowly, "How could this be? You, a servant, are so bold! You actually made up a lie. Are you showing contempt for me?"

Shangguan Qing simply wanted to give a thumbs up to Zhixia. This girl was very smart and she had tricked the queen into this.

At this time, Zhixia was already kneeling on the ground, speaking earnestly, as if she was actively proving herself.

"Your Majesty, my young lady is the Regent Princess. This is absolutely true. This veil must not be removed."

The Queen sneered and said in a cold tone, "You say so, right? I think you are just trying to evade the blame for your young lady. Someone come here!"

Zhixia feigned fear and shouted, "Empress, you absolutely cannot do this!"

At this moment, a maid came forward and pulled off the veil on Shangguan Qing's face.

In an instant, Shangguan Qing's beautiful face appeared in front of everyone, and people couldn't help but fall in love with her.

Everyone gasped, amazed at her beauty.

Some ladies couldn't help but exclaim in admiration: "Wow, is this the Regent Princess? She's so beautiful!"

Jiang Yiyi clenched her fists tightly, her heart filled with jealousy.

She originally thought that Shangguan Qing had only restored her appearance, but she didn't expect her to be so beautiful and charming.

Even in this harem full of beauties, Shangguan Qing is one of the most beautiful women.

Shangguan Qingcheng just stood there blankly, looking at Shangguan Qing with dull eyes.

Although she knew that Shangguan Qing had recovered, she did not expect her beauty to be so stunning.

Moreover, the traces of the rash on Shangguan Qing's face disappeared without a trace, as if they had never existed.

Her mind began to become active. Shangguan Qing saw everything and seemed to be in control of the overall situation.

However, the Queen still seemed unable to accept what she saw. She raised the corners of her mouth, revealing a mocking smile, and said coldly: "It's really ridiculous. Any random woman wants to pretend to be Shangguan Qing. Do you think I'm a fool?"

Shangguan Qing's lips curled up into a faint smile, and his voice was filled with a hint of sarcasm: "Empress, are you afraid to believe it, or are you unwilling to believe it?"

The queen's words hit the nail on the head. Her expression turned grim and she shouted angrily, "How dare you! How dare you be so disrespectful to me? Why don't you kneel down before me?"

Shangguan Qing paid no attention to the Queen's anger. Instead, she said jokingly, "Your Majesty, are you getting old and your memory isn't very good? I'm no longer your daughter-in-law. Should I kneel just because you ask me to? I'm the future Regent Princess, your brother's wife. We're equals. Besides, don't you know that the Regent has the power to exempt you from kneeling?"

At this moment, Concubine Hui beside her chuckled and said leisurely, "Sister Queen, she is indeed right."

The queen's face suddenly became as gloomy as the bottom of a pot, and her eyes were filled with anger.

She gritted her teeth and said, "Even so, you haven't married the Regent yet, so you should still bow when you see me."

Shangguan Qing showed no sign of weakness. He looked at the Queen provocatively and said slowly, "Even if we weren't married, I wouldn't bow to you. Your Majesty, what can you do to me? Why don't you ask the Emperor and see what he says?"

The queen roared, completely losing her queenly demeanor: "I am the master of the harem!"

Shangguan Qing, however, showed no sign of weakness. He raised a disdainful smile and said, "But I don't belong in your harem."

The implication is that the queen has no control over her at all.

The queen was so angry that she was shaking all over and was at a loss for a moment, because if this matter continued, she would be the only one to be embarrassed.

At this moment, Wang Bingbing, who had been silent all this time, found an opportunity and spoke at the right time: "Your Majesty, please don't bother with such a person. After all, he has been stupid for a few years and doesn't know the rules."

Shangguan Qing found this extremely ridiculous and wondered who was the fool.

When Concubine Qi saw that her niece was on the Queen's side, her face darkened and she called Wang Bingbing over.

Wang Bingbing stood beside Concubine Qi very reluctantly, and the scene suddenly became extremely awkward.

At this moment, the eunuch's sharp voice sounded again: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived, the First Prince has arrived, the Second Prince has arrived, and the Fifth Prince has arrived!"

Shangguan Qing calmed herself down, looked straight at the door, and secretly sighed in her heart, this was the first time she had seen all the princes in such a comprehensive manner.

Crown Prince Murong Yu is the third prince, the son of the current queen, and the only legitimate son, with the support of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

He looks handsome and suave, but in fact he is a sinister and cunning person.

The eldest prince Murong Kuang is the son of Concubine Liang. His maternal grandfather is in charge of the entire Ministry of Revenue. It can be said that the economy of the entire Murong Kingdom is in his hands.

The eldest prince is a low-key person. It is rumored that he is a rare business genius and possesses huge wealth.

In addition, he is Wang Bingbing's cousin.

Because of this, when Wang Bingbing spoke up for the Queen, Concubine Liang was particularly angry.

The second prince Murong Hui is the son of Concubine Hui, and his maternal grandfather is the current prime minister.

It is rumored that he has a deep relationship with his cousin Liu Lian'er, but Liu Lian'er rarely appears at various banquets.

Murong Hui is sinister and ruthless. He has done many things behind the scenes that go against his conscience. He is also a popular candidate to seize the throne.

The fourth prince, Murong Jin, is the son of Concubine Jing. He is relatively young and rarely appears in public.

Finally, there is the fifth prince, whose mother is Concubine Rou.

Unfortunately, Concubine Rou died shortly after the fifth prince was born. The fifth prince was weak and sickly since childhood and had no one to take care of him. He almost died several times.

He did not have a strong background or power, and was the least favored by others, but he was humble, polite, kind and loving, and never cared about gains and losses.

It was only Mid-Autumn Festival, but the Fifth Prince had already put on his cloak, coughed from time to time, and covered his mouth with a handkerchief.

Even so, people around him still stayed away from him, as if they were afraid of him.

The princes of Murong Kingdom all have their own characteristics. Currently, there are only three of them who are at the center of the power struggle, namely the crown prince, the eldest prince, and the second prince. They all have their own backgrounds and strengths.

At this moment, the prince had obviously seen Shangguan Qing, with a look of astonishment on his face. He then stepped forward, nodded slightly, and asked, "Whose daughter is this young lady? She is so stunningly beautiful, why haven't I seen her before?"

At this moment, everyone in the audience looked embarrassed, and the queen's face was even colder.

Shangguan Qingcheng had already clenched her fists. Shangguan Qing saw this and sarcastically said, "Your Highness, the Crown Prince is wrong. We've not only met, but we were also very familiar with each other. As for the title of "The Most Beautiful Woman in the Country," I'm not quite the same. However, I am indeed Qingcheng's sister, your ex-fiancée."

The prince was obviously startled, then he chuckled and said, "How is it possible? How could you be that ugly, fat fool!"
