She loses if she divorces, the reborn mistress only divorces her husband

"Who?" Concubine Zhong asked immediately.

Liang An lowered his head, "She is your great-granddaughter...Song Qingyan."

"Who are you talking about?!" Concubine Zhong stood up in shock, "Say it again!"

Liang An knelt down quickly, "Madam, this is Song Qingyan, the wife of the late Second Prince Chu Tingjue."

Li Jingwan also opened her eyes wide in shock.

Song Qingyan, whom they were about to capture, turned out to be a pawn used by the Queen Mother to show favor to the Emperor?

"Your Majesty, please calm down. This is absolutely true." Liang An said.

"After Master found out, he ordered me to come back and tell you. Your Majesty, this matter involves the Imperial Court, so please do not reveal that it was Master who told me to say it."

Cheng Deying was just trying to please Chu Tingyu, and now that he had the opportunity, he sent Liang An back to bring a message.

No matter what the final result is, he did a good job for Chu Tingyu, which was considered as doing something for him and paving the way for himself.

"I understand. You can get out now." Concubine Zhong gritted her teeth and hated Song Qingyan even more.

Song Qingyan was so bold that she ignored the fact that she was Chu Tingjue's cousin and former wife, and she went to rely on Empress Dowager Xiao and seduced the Emperor.

Song Qingyan didn't take her seriously at all!

As soon as Liang An left, Concubine Zhong immediately asked Chu Tingyu, "Yu'er, Jingwan, how should we solve this matter with Song Qingyan?"

Concubine Zhong was glad that both of them were there to make decisions for her.

"Mother, we must stop this." Chu Tingyu's eyes were deep, "If Song Qingyan is taken into the harem by father, it will not only damage the reputation of the royal family, but the Zhong family will also be ridiculed."

Isn't it ridiculous that Song Qingyan went from being Chu Yin's daughter-in-law to being his concubine?

What's more, Song Qingyan is a murderer and intended to assassinate the princess. She should be severely punished by the law.

"Yes, we must stop it." Concubine Zhong nodded and said with embarrassment, "It's just... I can't show up."

"First, concubines are not allowed to leave the palace without the emperor's permission. Second, the emperor wants to marry a girl. If I stop him, it would be jealous and the queen mother would make trouble for me."

She said worriedly, "Yu'er, you can't just stop it. It won't be good for you either."

Now Song Qingyan is the woman that the Queen Mother presented to Chu Yin. If he breaks in by force, he would be interfering with the Emperor's private affairs.

"Your Majesty, I have a solution." Li Jingwan said at this time.

"You say." Concubine Zhong said hurriedly.

"Let the Dali Temple issue an arrest warrant on the grounds that Song Qingyan hired someone to assassinate me. We will pretend that we don't know what the Queen Mother has called Song Qingyan to do, and just say that we are going to Zhaoyun Temple to arrest her."

Chu Tingyu nodded in agreement, "This method is feasible."

"Song Qingyan assassinated the princess, and she is under the jurisdiction of the Dali Temple. It makes sense for Jingwan and I to follow the Dali Temple's bailiffs to arrest Song Qingyan. When we get to Zhaoyun Temple, we can say that someone saw Song Qingyan going to the back mountain. We can use this as an excuse to search for her in Yuanshanju."

Concubine Zhong nodded repeatedly, "Yes, let's do it this way. Yu'er, Jingwan, go quickly, don't let the Queen Mother and Song Qingyan succeed."

-

Behind the Zhaoyun Temple is the distant mountain residence.

Song Qingyan sat in front of the dressing table, watching the nanny behind her combing her hair.

Although she had made up her mind to accept Empress Dowager Xiao's advice, she was still very nervous and even had to hold her right hand with her left hand to prevent herself from shaking.

The nanny who combed her hair was the palace maid who asked her to meet Empress Dowager Xiao yesterday. She skillfully combed her hair into another style.

She saw the maid at home wearing this hairstyle when she was very young, and it is no longer a fashionable hairstyle.

She knew that this must be the hairstyle that "Yun Niang" mentioned by Empress Dowager Xiao often wore when she was alive.

After combing her hair, Mammy looked at Song Qingyan in the mirror and nodded with satisfaction, "Now they look very similar."

As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the room was pushed open and Empress Dowager Xiao walked in.

Song Qingyan quickly stood up and saluted. Empress Dowager Xiao asked her to look up, looked carefully for a while, and smiled, "If I didn't know your identity, I would have thought she was alive."

She waved her hand and the nanny immediately left.

Empress Dowager Xiao then said, "The emperor is in the courtyard, you should go see him now."

"Yes." Song Qingyan's voice was a little tense.

Empress Dowager Xiao could hear her nervousness and said, "Relax, the emperor is drunk, he will only treat you as Yunniang."

"When you go in, don't talk too much. If he calls you Yunniang, just agree."

"Yes." Song Qingyan said.

"Song Qingyan, I have already paved the way for you. Now it depends on whether you can make use of it or not."

Empress Dowager Xiao said, "If this succeeds, don't forget who helped you to ascend to the throne."

"I understand." Song Qingyan knelt down to show her loyalty, "I will definitely remember the Queen Mother's kindness and follow her lead in the future. I will obey her orders."

Empress Dowager Xiao was very satisfied with her advice and reached out to help her up. "Okay, I didn't make a mistake in choosing you."

She reached out and tucked a strand of Song Qingyan's hair behind her ear, and lowered her voice, "The wine the emperor drank has some effect in boosting his mood. I am waiting for your good news."

Song Qingyan's heart tightened, but she was also a little excited, "Thank you, Queen Mother."

"Go ahead." Empress Dowager Xiao let go of her hand. "There's no one else in the room."

Song Qingyan retreated respectfully and, under the guidance of the nanny at the door, walked into the room at the end of the corridor.

After entering, she smelled a faint Buddhist incense. There was a screen on the left, and a figure was floating behind the screen.

She exhaled slowly, walked around the screen, and saw Chu Yin sitting at the table, drinking from a glass of wine.

When Chu Yin heard the voice, he slowly raised his head. His eyes were no longer as clear as when Song Qingyan first saw him. He was indeed drunk.

Song Qingyan didn't say anything, but looked at him calmly. She clearly saw that Chu Yin's eyes were gradually filled with shock and surprise.

"You..." Chu Yin put down his wine glass, his voice excited, "Yun Niang..."

"Yunniang, is that you?" He stretched out his hand towards Song Qingyan, "Yunniang, come here."

Song Qingyan stepped forward, hesitated for a moment, stretched out her right hand and placed it in Chu Yin's hand, which was immediately grasped tightly by him.

"Yunniang..." Chu Yin's eyes were already blurred. He raised his other hand and brushed it lightly across her face. "It's really you."

"I haven't seen you for a long time..." He put away his imperial majesty and said with self-blame in his tone, "I didn't protect you, so you left."

Song Qingyan could feel Chu Yin's love for Yunniang, and she secretly rejoiced that she looked so much like her.

"I'm glad you're back." Chu Yin suddenly smiled, "I'm the emperor now, no one can bully you anymore. Don't leave, stay by my side."

Song Qingyan smiled shyly and said softly, "Your Majesty, I will not leave. I will always be with you from now on."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Yin's expression changed, "What did you call me?"
