Quick Transmigration: The Yandere Villain is Extremely Difficult to Mess With

The emperor did not speak.

He Suining sighed, "I heard that when Consort Xian was arrested, everyone recognized her... Doesn't Your Majesty find that a bit strange?"

The Emperor didn't seem to want to discuss the matter further, but upon hearing the Empress's words, he looked at her curiously.

The Emperor was not a foolish person; he simply did not want to think too much.

Besides, so many years have passed, it's meaningless for the Emperor to think about it now.

"Your Majesty, do you still remember? When we captured Consort Ru, she was disguised as a palace maid. Moreover, the place where she had an affair with that guard was in a remote location. If it weren't for my chance to go with Your Majesty to see Jin Nian, I'm afraid we would have had a hard time running into them."

He Suining's words made the emperor frown even more deeply, his brow furrowing so tightly it could have trapped a fly.

That concludes the discussion.

She stopped talking; if she talked too much, it would feel awkward.

The rest, I suppose His Majesty will think about.

Once people start thinking, they'll find flaws everywhere.

Subsequently.

The Emperor was distracted and sent He Suining back early.

After she leaves.

The Emperor then summoned Eunuch Liu, "Liu Fude..."

*

He Suining returned to the palace, and news of her return soon followed.

The Emperor's decision to reopen the investigation into Consort Xian's secret meeting with the guards years ago has sparked much discussion within the palace. It's suspected that Consort Ru wasn't the only one involved in this affair; there were likely others secretly aiding her.

Now things are really messed up; with Consort Ru caught, the events of that year have been implicated.

Everyone is at risk.

He Suining was the only one drinking tea in the palace, waiting to watch the show unfold.

A few days later.

The Imperial Guards sent out by the Emperor did not find anything.

It's not that they lack ability, but rather that too many years have passed. Consort Ru is currently imprisoned, awaiting execution. She remains silent no matter what is asked, as if she were mute.

The only thing I could say was, "Your Majesty, how cruel you are."

Even Qin Jingxing didn't utter a single word, and over time the emperor became too lazy to interrogate her anymore.

They couldn't get any information from him.

The emperor became even more agitated.

He told Liu Fude to wait nearby, and then walked into the Star-Picking Pavilion alone with his hands behind his back.

This place even made him nostalgic.

Back then, Zhaixing Pavilion was Consort Xian's favorite place. She liked to come here whenever she had free time, and later he started to accompany her.

The two of them looked at the stars together.

Those were actually the most comfortable and happiest times for the emperor, as if he had returned to the carefree days when he was a prince.

later.

After the incident with Consort Xian, he never came again, not wanting to step into this place of sorrow.

The Zhaixing Pavilion is now largely abandoned because of its poor location, limited function, and the fact that the concubines don't like to come here.

The Emperor went inside.

Suddenly I saw someone who looked familiar.

He pursed his lips and walked toward the man with an air of authority that emanated from him.

As the footsteps drew closer.

Qin Jinnian looked up in confusion. He was sitting on the steps, seemingly lost in thought and not doing anything.

He saw that it was his father, the Emperor.

He stood up in alarm, then hurriedly bowed to the Emperor, "Father..."

"Get up."

The emperor strolled around with his hands behind his back, seemingly unconcerned about why he was there.

Qin Jinnian didn't know what to say.

This was the first time the father and son had spent time alone together since the passing of Consort Xian.

He could only lower his head and follow behind the emperor.

After a while, the emperor sighed heavily, turned around and looked at him, "What are you doing here?"

In fact, the emperor's question was unnecessary.

How could he not know?

Qin Jinnian looked terrified. "Your Majesty, I sometimes miss my mother, so I come to the Star-Picking Pavilion to stay for a while..."

"What happened back then." The Emperor paused for a few seconds before speaking with difficulty, "There might be a misunderstanding. I misunderstood your mother. Do you resent me?"

Qin Jinnian was stunned for a moment, his face full of innocence.

It seemed like it took him a long time to accept the news. He hurriedly knelt down before the Emperor and said, "Father, I am terrified. If there was a real injustice in what happened back then, I only hope to clear my mother's name so that she can rest in peace in the afterlife... As for you, Father, you were also deceived by the villains. Besides, what my mother said to me most back then was how good you were."

"Your subject has always remembered this over the years. When I was in the Cold Palace, I missed Father Emperor very much and only thought about returning to Father Emperor's side to be filial to Father Emperor."

"I suppose my mother thinks the same way, so how can I possibly resent my father?"

The emperor smiled slightly, but felt very guilty.

If the case of Consort Xian was indeed a miscarriage of justice, then not only Consort Xian was wronged, but also their son.

He has kept her locked up in the cold palace for so many years.

If it weren't for his own intelligence and his perseverance, he would have been driven mad by the environment of the cold palace long ago and truly become a useless crown prince.

The emperor looked unwell and somewhat embarrassed.

He bent down and offered Qin Jinnian a helping hand.

Qin Jinnian quickly stood up.

The Emperor patted his shoulder, his wrinkled eyes filled with not only vicissitudes but also a few tears. "Good child, you and your mother are both good. Don't worry, I promise you, if this matter is truly a miscarriage of justice, I will restore your status as Crown Prince, which will also comfort your mother's spirit in the afterlife."

Qin Jinnian wiped his face hard with his sleeve.

When she looked at the Emperor again, tears were already streaming down her face.

this moment.

The father and son seemed to have reconciled.

*

Day two.

Qin Jinnian hurriedly arrived at Fengyi Palace, "Empress Dowager..."

Xingzi took the food and made an excuse to leave, leaving the two of them alone.

He sat down opposite He Suining with a happy expression, watching her drink tea from her cup, and then reached out and grabbed her hand.

He Suining glared at him, "You're getting more and more outrageous."

"Mother~" Qin Jinnian said in a low voice, but it sounded coquettish. Although it was pleasant to hear, it really gave me goosebumps. "These days, I have been going to the Star-Picking Pavilion every day as Mother Consort asked me to, and sure enough, I met Father Emperor. Father Emperor has promised me that once the case is investigated, he will restore my status as Crown Prince."

He furrowed his brow. "But after all these years, I'm afraid we won't be able to find anything."

"Don't worry." He Suining reached out and tapped his forehead. "I'm still here, aren't I? Don't forget, Qin Jingxing is locked up, he's someone we can use too."

Although that is what is said.

But upon hearing Qin Jingxing's name, Qin Jinnian became jealous, "Mother."

He held He Suining's hand and rubbed it against his cheek. "Do you really have to go see him?"

"He's part of the plan, but who says I'm going too?"

Qin Jinnian's dark eyes were filled with tender affection, making those who looked at him feel rather embarrassed.

Sometimes He Suining is really strange; whenever she looks at him, he always looks at her.

"I'll call Xingzi over then." He Suining pretended to be nonchalant and reached out to pat his face, making him turn his head away so he wouldn't look at her.

Qin Jinnian smiled, leaned in, and kissed her crimson lips. "Mother is so good to me. She has done so much for me."

Again.

He Suining really suspected that he might have some kind of special fetish.

Unable to stand it any longer, she kicked him, saying, "Go away, who said I did this for you? Alright, you should leave now. You're an adult now, and you keep coming to my palace. If you do it too often, people will inevitably criticize you."

Qin Jinnian understood this principle.

A ruthless glint flashed in his eyes.

Therefore, in order to rightfully obtain He Suining, he had to ascend the throne and marry her as his empress.

Qin Jinnian leaned closer to her and chuckled softly, "I understand, Mother. Then I shall take my leave."

After he left.

He Suining then called Xingzi over and gave her some instructions.

Xingzi nodded and walked out with a normal expression.

Less than half an hour later, she returned. "Your Majesty, as you instructed, I secretly went to the Cold Palace to see Prince Wei. I also informed him of the existence of the secret passage and asked him to find a way to escape from the Cold Palace and leave the palace through the secret passage."

Seeing that the matter was settled.

He Suining rewarded Xingzi with an expensive pearl, which Xingzi treasured and hid in her sleeve pocket.

Her little face showed confusion. "But Your Highness, aren't you afraid that His Highness will be heartbroken if he finds out that you're helping Prince Wei like this?"

Hearing her words, He Suining's face blossomed into a charming smile.

She took a small sip of the strong tea in her hand, her eyes filled with unyielding ruthlessness. "Who said I'm helping him?"
