Quick Transmigration: Host, Please Be a Mute Beauty

Jiang Qiao stood there, a slight smile playing on her lips, but she casually lowered her gaze, looking at Jiang Ji with a calm and indifferent expression, as if he were a stranger.

"By the way, how is the incense I sent to Father Emperor? I prepared it with great care for you, but I was too kind-hearted and used too little poison."

Jiang Ji suddenly shifted his gaze to the incense burner, where wisps of smoke curled upwards.

original……

So his recent headaches and insomnia are all thanks to her.

Jiang Ji waited for someone to come in and take down Jiang Qiao, but no one came in.

Jiang Qiao seemed to see what he was thinking and chuckled, "Father, don't wait anymore, no one will come in anymore, it's already midnight."

Jiang Ji had given instructions that after midnight, no one was allowed to enter the Hall of Mental Cultivation except by summons.

Jiang Qiao had timed it perfectly and intercepted Consort Li's maid.

Jiang Ji's face was filled with anger and humiliation. He opened his mouth as if to say something, but no sound came out, and his face turned red.

He had thought about it a million times, but he never imagined it would end this way.

"Father." The woman's expression remained unchanged. She gently raised her hand and walked to the side to grind ink for him. "Write quickly. The position of Crown Prince belongs to Ayan. If you don't write, I can't guarantee whether your beloved Jincheng will still be alive tomorrow. He's so young. If he dies, Father, you must be heartbroken!"

Jiang Ji stared at her, then suddenly laughed. He picked up a pen and began to write, a tear falling as he wrote.

Seeing that he had finished writing, Jiang Qiao put a pill into his mouth. "Father, don't think that Chang Le is heartless. Things have come to this point because of your own actions."

This pill is the concentrated essence of the calming incense here. It will cause people to faint and eventually die, similar to a vegetative state. Although they are unconscious, they can still hear the sounds of the outside world.

Her chin was slightly raised, her expression calm and composed. Jiang Qiao's tone remained calm throughout, without the slightest loss of composure or even a frown.

"Jiang Ji, you deserve to pay with your life for this lifetime!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Ji fainted.

Jiang Qiao looked at the unconscious Jiang Ji, still appearing calm and collected, but a tear in the corner of her eye betrayed her true feelings.

Memories of the original owner's childhood began to slowly resurface in her mind.

"My Chang Le is truly clever..."

"Father is also wise; Chang Le takes after Father..."

"Chang Le has gained weight again..."

"Father is fat..."

Jiang Ji was very young at that time, and she was his only daughter. She was not yet blinded by imperial power.

But all of that is in the past. People's hearts are fickle, and everything changes with time.

Jiang Qiao took the imperial edict, placed it in a sealed box, and put it behind the "Upright and Bright" plaque in the hall, but then touched another box.

Upon opening it, there was another imperial edict, which stated that Jiang Jincheng was the chosen crown prince.

When Jiang Qiao passed by Jiang Ji carrying this box, her eyes held a mixture of unspoken emotions.

“Father, Ayan will not let you down. He is just as clever and quick-witted as he was when he was a child. He will do better than you.”

After saying that, he left directly.

Jiang Ji's fingers twitched almost imperceptibly, and then remained still.

……

The palace was as cold as ever. Jiang Qiao felt that there was no human warmth here, and that it had trapped many women for their entire lives.

Leaving the palace required a body search, so Jiang Qiao took the imperial edict to Chang Le Palace and burned it. She didn't plan to stay in the palace tonight.

Because he had disguised himself, Jiang Qiao used the obtained doorplate to successfully leave the palace.

An empty carriage was waiting for her not far from the palace.

This was something she had prepared in advance.

Everything is going smooth.

Until she was almost at the princess's residence.

Chi Qi'an, dressed in black, was waiting for her ahead, his eyes cold, and upon closer inspection, one could faintly see tears welling up in his eyes.

Jiang Qiao stepped off the carriage, ripped off the mask from her face, and felt a dampness in the wind. She lifted her long hair, letting the mist settle between the strands. Her lips curled slightly, her eyes were full of smiles, but her eyes remained indifferent.

Chi Qi'an came over and hugged her tightly, "Where did you go?"

Jiang Qiao gently rubbed her face against his neck, tears streaming down her face. "How did you know I wasn't here?"

“You didn’t take your medicine today, and I was very worried about you. I’ve been waiting for you to come back.” Chi Qi’an didn’t dare to speak loudly.

Jiang Qiao looked up at her, her eyes watery. She was afraid; she had done so many bad things in this world, and God would not forgive her.

"Chi Qi'an, I did something bad, but I had to do it. I'm so scared."

Chi Qi'an wiped away her tears, "No matter what, I will face it with you."

He didn't know what she had done tonight, but judging from her current condition, it certainly wasn't easy.

"Chi Qi'an, I'm so sleepy, I want to go to sleep."

"it is good."

Why do you always say "yes"?

"do not know."

……

Jiang Qiao did not wake up the next day.

A major incident also occurred in the palace. Jiang Ji was murdered and is unconscious, causing chaos. Only the Empress Dowager can stabilize the situation for now.

The imperial physicians were at a loss as to how to treat Jiang Ji's illness, and Gu Yun was also summoned to the palace.

Chi Qi'an finally understood what Jiang Qiao had done last night. He sat by the woman's bedside and held her hand tightly.

He could guess how helpless she must have felt to choose this method.

Jiang Qiao's actions might seem ruthless to others, but they haven't experienced what she went through. Her birth mother died in front of her, and she and her younger brother were murdered. No one can make her kind.

……

Given what happened in Anhuai Kingdom, it's inconvenient for the people from Ningyuan Kingdom to stay any longer.

Rong Sui came to see Jiang Qiao. The woman on the bed was pale, but she still looked calm.

"Jiang Qiao, I'm leaving. I've made my choice. I want power. I used to live such a life, being bullied by others. I've seen your happiest moments and heard about your past from others. It's all a mix of truth and lies, and I don't believe it. I hope you can wake up soon."

When he left, Chi Qi'an was waiting for him at the door.

Rong Sui glanced at him indifferently, "General Chi, you are welcome to bring her to Ningyuan Kingdom if there is an opportunity in the future."

"Will do."

……

Jiang Qiao woke up the day after Rong Sui left.

Gu Yun said that she fell into a coma because she took the wrong medicine.

Jiang Qiao brought Jiang Yanchuan into the palace.

Jiang Yanchuan didn't know how to face her. He knew better than anyone that Jiang Ji was the one who did this.

Jiang Qiao wore makeup today, concealing her sickly appearance. "Ayan, I hope you will be a good emperor in the future."

Jiang Yanchuan didn't speak, he just looked at her.

Jiang Qiao smiled and didn't say anything more.

Upon arriving at the palace, Li Dequan respectfully greeted the siblings. Civil and military officials were already waiting for them, and Chi Qi'an was also watching her from below.

Li Dequan took out the imperial edict and said, "By the grace of Heaven, the Emperor decrees: Jiang Yanchuan, the eldest son of the legitimate wife, has been intelligent since childhood and is blessed by Heaven. I hereby pass the throne to him, hoping that he will be a wise and benevolent ruler who loves the people. This is the imperial decree."

Jiang Yanchuan knelt down to receive the imperial decree, his eyes filled with clarity.

The civil and military officials were in complete chaos, discussing the matter amongst themselves.

Most people say that the eldest prince is stupid and cannot be the crown prince.

"Anyone have a problem with this? Step forward! Does anyone want to defy the imperial decree?"
