The Crown Princess is reborn and returns to subvert the world

It was the first time that the new queen came to the cold palace to see them.

So when Empress Wei heard Luluo say that the Queen had arrived, she was very surprised. She knew that the Queen must have encountered something serious, so she thought of the concubines of the previous dynasty who were imprisoned in the cold palace.

But she knew it in her heart but did not show it on her face. Even when she met the new queen Lan Ruyun, her face was still as cold as a cloud.

Lan Ruyun looked at the two women in front of her who were both unusually calm and clenched her fists in hatred.

"Empress, Concubine De, you are living a very good life in the cold palace."

"We have to thank the Empress and the Emperor for their compassion, which has allowed us, the concubines of the previous emperor, to have this quiet place to stand. For this, Concubine De and I would like to thank Empress Lan and the Emperor." As she said this, Yingying stood up and was about to salute Lan Ruyun.

Lan Ruyun was so frightened that she took two steps back.

She had always bowed to Empress Wei before, but this time, Empress Wei suddenly bowed to her so deeply that she couldn't accept it for a moment.

Upon seeing this, Concubine De stepped forward and bowed, "The Queen and I are able to live in peace today thanks to Queen Lan's care. I have nothing, so I can only express my gratitude with courtesy."

This time Lan Ruyun did not hide. She never felt inferior to Concubine De.

On the contrary, De Fei had always been a model of being humble and submissive since she entered the palace, so it was natural for her to accept her bow. So in front of De Fei, she could naturally look down on him.

"Defei, what are you going to do with the fifth prince?" Lan Ruyun looked at Defei.

Concubine De was startled and looked up at Lan Ruyun, "What does the Queen mean by asking this of mine?"

"Of course you and your son need to have the same attitude." The maid brought a chair to Lan Ruyun, and she sat down. "The late emperor passed away. I heard that the coffin has arrived at Lanjia Mountain outside the city and will enter the city soon."

Upon hearing this, Empress Wei and Concubine De looked at each other.

"Don't think that you will have a good life just because Prince Ning and his men are back. The emperor's meaning is very clear. If you make it clear that you stand with us, he will not embarrass you, and he will naturally protect the crown prince and the fifth prince."

"However," she paused, "if you insist on being an enemy of the emperor, then the emperor will not keep you any longer."

Concubine De hurriedly said, "We just want to be with our prince, even if we are allowed to leave the palace and become ordinary people."

Empress Wei remained silent.

Lan Ruyun looked at her, "Queen, what about you?"

Empress Wei still looked cold and said, "I am now living in the harem, and the only people I see every day are my personal maid Luluo and a nanny. Empress, even if you want me to go see Prince Ning, do you think I can see him?"

Lan Ruyun was startled. "What if you bribed the officers outside to pass on the message to you?"

"Humph," Empress Wei sneered, "We have been locked up in the cold palace for several months. If we could get in touch with the crown prince, wouldn't you and the emperor not know?!"

"In all dynasties of our Great Saint Dynasty, no matter how the dynasties changed, we never made things difficult for the concubines in the harem. I'm afraid the Queen and the Emperor are planning to violate the ancestral rules and force the few concubines of the previous emperor to death, right?"

Lan Rujun didn't expect to be outwitted by Empress Wei, and her face turned cold.

"What do you mean, Queen?"

"What's the meaning of Empress Lan coming to the harem so early in the morning?! The coffin of the late emperor is brought to the capital, which is a matter of course. Why do you and the emperor make it seem like the late emperor wanted to rebel?! How did you get the throne of the emperor? Don't you know it?"

When Empress Wei finished speaking, her voice became noticeably louder.

Concubine De was worried that she would annoy Lan Ruyun, so she quickly reached out and tugged at her sleeve as a reminder.

But Empress Wei didn't care about that at all. "You asked us to make our stance clear, but how can we do it? What's the point of making it clear?! Living in the harem, I am already like meat on the chopping board for you. Can't you chop me however you want? Why are you asking me?!"

"You came here to ask, isn't it just to threaten us with the lives of the Crown Prince and the Fifth Prince? I tell you, the Crown Prince and I, the Crown Prince and I, are both disposable and irrelevant. If the Crown Prince is capable, I would like him to forget about me from now on!"

"You, you!" Lan Ruyun stood up angrily, "If you do this, then our previous friendship will be wiped out!"

"Hahahaha!" Empress Wei laughed loudly. "What a joke! Is there any friendship between the concubines in the harem?"

She looked at Lan Ruyun coldly, "If there is true friendship, you and I should treat each other as sisters. But you gave birth to Prince Duan's son, how can you treat me as a sister?"

Defei's palms were sweating. What was wrong with Empress Wei today? Why did every word she said seem to annoy the new queen?

She couldn't help but step forward and pull Empress Wei, "Sister, Empress Lan has been with us in the harem for more than ten years, she must have some friendship with you."

"She came here today not to embarrass us, but to help us." He looked at Lan Ruyun and said, "The Queen has always been kind-hearted. She will never lose her mind because of the late emperor. She came to the harem today just to remind us that the emperor may want to harm us."

Lan Rujun didn't expect that the Defei, who seemed unknown on weekdays, would find such a way out for her at this time. She was shocked.

Yes, she was right. She was indeed anxious and confused. The late emperor's coffin was entering the city, so why was she so nervous?

After calming down a little, she suddenly looked at Concubine De, "Concubine De, do you want to see the Fifth Prince?"

Concubine De was stunned.

"I can find a way to get you out of the city to meet the Fifth Prince."

Concubine De was even more surprised, "Why did the Queen suddenly ask me to meet the Fifth Prince?!"

Empress Wei was also very surprised. This was not going according to the script. She was clearly angry, so why didn't Empress Lan play by the rules and instead sent Concubine De out of the palace?

But it is a good thing that Concubine De can go out, and she will not stop her.

"If you can really let Concubine De go out and meet the Fifth Prince, you will be accumulating merits, and this blessing may fall on the Crown Prince."

When Lan Ruyun heard Empress Wei say this, she wanted to make this happen even more.

"I don't just want you and your son to meet, I also want you to do something for me," Lan Ruyun looked at Concubine De with a serious face.

"If you agree, I will send you out of the palace tonight."

Defei suddenly became a little excited and couldn't help but hold Lan Ruyun's hand tightly.
