Demoted from wife to concubine? Reborn, the mistress of a noble family plots another high-status mar

Chapter 922

"Princess, we have not found Lady Yun." The guard hurriedly entered the hall, knelt on one knee, and reported nervously.

Murong Yun's face darkened, and she snorted angrily, "Hmph! Now that things have come to this, where can she run to? Capture those three bastards for me first!"

The Empress Dowager's originally dignified face instantly turned from shock to anger, her eyes reddening as she pointed at Murong Yun and scolded, "What are you doing? Murong Yun, you've gone mad! Those three princes are all your own nephews! I've nurtured you with such care for so many years, how could I have imagined that you would turn out to be such a heartless and treacherous person!"

"I will absolutely not allow you to harm them in the slightest!" The Empress Dowager's voice trembled slightly, filled with both anger and barely concealed sorrow.

Murong Yun suddenly threw her head back and let out a maniacal laugh that echoed through the empty hall, sending chills down everyone's spine.

Her eyes gleamed with arrogance, and a twisted smile played on her lips: "Mother, haven't you always looked down on Yun Xiyue for being just a merchant's daughter, of lowly status and of humble blood? How could her children be worthy of the noble bloodline of my Murong family? They are clearly just three bastards!"

Having said that, she paused slightly, a sinister and crazed light flashing in her eyes, and continued, "The one you should cherish is your granddaughter. From this day forward, I am the Regent Princess, and when the Emperor returns, I will make him abdicate immediately. When I become Empress, your granddaughter will naturally be the Crown Princess. Hahaha..."

"Mother, you keep saying you love me the most. Then support me to ascend the throne, and this world will be ours."

Murong Yu conquered the country.

Her glory was when she unified the world.

Just thinking about it made Murong Yun's eyes light up with excitement.

So many princes covet that golden dragon throne in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, but whoever finds it will be beaten to it.

"Hahaha..." Murong Yun let out a series of chilling laughs.

Granny Su helped the Empress Dowager up, hoping to take the opportunity to rescue the young prince.

But to his surprise, he was stopped by the guards.

"Mother, where are you going?" Murong Yun asked with a sinister smile.

The Empress Dowager, pale and panting, looked at her and said, "Yun'er, I beg you. Don't hurt the children. Xiao Bao and the others are innocent."

During this time together, she had come to genuinely like the three children, praising their exquisitely beautiful appearance and innocent, adorable smiles.

I really like it.

Her eyes were bloodshot, and she was almost kneeling down to beg the princess.

"Hmph!" Murong Yun laughed, "Mother, don't worry, of course I won't hurt my three adorable little nephews."

She still wants to keep those three bastard children to threaten Murong Yu!

When Yun Xiyue returns, they will use the three children to capture the woman.

Control the cloud.

Only in this way could she rightfully ascend the throne.

"It's almost dawn. Help the Empress Dowager change her clothes, and then you will come with me to court to announce this imperial edict."

Murong Yun produced an imperial edict.

She herself appointed herself as the Regent Queen.

Grand Tutor Zhou and General Xiao are injured and will not be able to attend court today.

Anyone who tries to stop her, she will kill.

The Empress Dowager said, "Then you must promise me that you will not harm the three babies."

"I need to see the child first."

Murong Yun ignored it and stepped out. She felt something was amiss because the guards had been gone for so long and the child hadn't been brought back.

Sure enough, soon the palace eunuchs who were acting as informants rushed over and said in a low voice, "Princess, we haven't found the three princes. Everyone in Jiaofang Palace has disappeared."

This includes Leng Yan, Eunuch Fu, and others.

Murong Yun immediately realized that their operation had been leaked.

Leng Yan was someone she tricked into being transferred away.

He was at home at the time.

As for the others, they couldn't have simply disappeared into thin air.

"Send people to look for him, but don't let it get out. Tell the Empress Dowager that he's been placed under house arrest."

It will be dawn soon.

She wants to take control of the court first.
