The mistress died of overwork, and after rebirth, she was bad at raising her cubs

As soon as the Ninth Prince opened his mouth, everyone couldn't help but hold their breath.

They knew that the Ninth Prince was not on good terms with the people in Prince Zhan's Mansion, and now that he had taken the initiative to speak, it was obvious that he was targeting Shen Qinglan and the others.

On one side is Prince Zhan's Palace, and on the other side is the Ninth Prince. Most people did not dare to speak easily.

Shen Qinglan chuckled as he listened to the Ninth Prince's words, which seemed to be looking down on him. A hint of mockery appeared on his slightly heroic face.

Then she raised her eyes and looked at the Ninth Prince, and asked in a clear voice:

"How can the Ninth Prince, with such a bad memory, take on the important task of governing the country?"

Shen Qinglan's words made the Ninth Prince's face darken.

The Ninth Prince looked at Shen Qinglan coldly, and said with a fake smile: "What does Princess Zhan mean by this?"

Shen Qinglan took a step back. Although he was not as tall as the Ninth Prince, at that moment, his aura was pressing down on the Ninth Prince like a mountain. He spoke as if he was looking down on him:

"Am I wrong? I am the Duke of Zhenguo appointed by His Majesty himself, and I have the right to attend court at any time. If you can't even remember this, what else can Dayong expect the Ninth Prince to remember?"

"You..." The Ninth Prince gritted his teeth in anger, but before he could finish his words, Shen Qinglan interrupted him:

"Your Majesty is wise and powerful. He has given me such a reward, which must have been carefully considered. But you, the Ninth Prince, keep saying that you look down on my identity as a woman. Do you really look down on my body as a woman, or do you look down on His Majesty's words?"

These words could be said to be directly putting the Ninth Prince on the fire.

If the Ninth Prince dared to say no again, Shen Qinglan would easily accuse him of disrespecting the Emperor's grace.

The Ninth Prince had finally managed to gain a foothold in the court these past two days, and he did not want to anger Emperor Jingren because of these trivial matters.

At that moment, the Ninth Prince could only swallow his anger and said with a gritted teeth:

"Duke Zhenguo, you are joking. It's just that you have never been to the court before, and I was a little curious when I suddenly saw you today."

Shen Qinglan smiled, glanced casually at Prime Minister Jiang behind the Ninth Prince, and then said:

"The Ninth Prince is young, so his actions and words are naturally unreliable, but the servants around the Ninth Prince should also be more careful. Otherwise, how can they stand behind the Ninth Prince? Ninth Prince, what do you think, right?"

After Shen Qinglan said this, he ignored the Ninth Prince and the others and turned around and walked into the hall.

Huo Zhanting followed Shen Qinglan with a smile on his face. He thought his wife was very eloquent. She had made the Ninth Prince and Prime Minister Jiang so angry that their faces turned pale.

Prime Minister Jiang knew that Shen Qinglan had just scolded him. Although he was angry, he did not lose his temper. He just walked to the side of the Ninth Prince and whispered:

"Ninth Prince, don't pay attention to her. This woman is sharp-tongued and there is no need to argue with her. The most important thing now is to see what the purpose of the Zhan Palace is."

Shen Qinglan suddenly came to court, and no one could figure out his intentions, so they had to be on guard.

The Ninth Prince took a deep breath, nodded and said, "I know."

At this moment, all the ministers who had been watching the excitement had quickly retracted their gazes.

In the first round, it seemed that Shen Qinglan and his team won.

But it is true that this Princess Zhan is truly extraordinary. She was able to overthrow the Queen and the Eighth Prince and become the first female duke in history. How could she not be capable?

Some people who were originally neutral couldn't help but become inclined.

There has never been a precedent in history for women to attend court, so it was a bit awkward for Shen Qinglan to stand among the ministers at this time.

When Emperor Jingren went to court, he saw Shen Qinglan standing in the crowd at first sight and his eyelids jumped involuntarily.

He did not forget that Ye Zhiwen had faked his death in order to keep him alive and deceive Queen Wang.

But even though Emperor Jingren's death was fake, in fact, that body was no different from a real dead body.

It was later that Shen Qinglan led his troops into the palace, found him first, and gave him a few injections, which controlled the poison in his body and allowed him to handle government affairs.

It was also at that time that Emperor Jingren realized that Shen Qinglan's medical skills were so superb.

Emperor Jingren suddenly realized that Huo Zhanting's so-called disability in walking had already been cured by Shen Qinglan.

They pretended to be unable to move in order to prevent him from knowing.

But even though I knew it, it was already too late.

If Emperor Jingren wants to maintain his current health, he can only ask Shen Qinglan for help.

and……

The most important thing is, since he has decided to hand over the throne to Ye Zhiwen, he can only choose not to know about the crime of deceiving the emperor committed by Huo Zhanting and others at that time.

Besides, the Shen Qinglan in front of him is more powerful than his Queen Wang. Otherwise, even Huo Zhanting would have been helpless under the circumstances at that time.

The final result would be that Queen Wang would use the Fourth Prince's name to legitimately kill Emperor Jingren, and then allow the Eighth Prince to succeed to the throne openly.

Although the reward given to Shen Qinglan by Emperor Jingren was considered the highest honor, in reality, everyone should know that this kind of reward was just a matter of face.

Saying that Shen Qinglan could be promised to come to court and handle government affairs together was just for the sake of sounding nice, but Emperor Jingren did not expect that Shen Qinglan would actually come.

Emperor Jingren had a myriad of thoughts in his mind, but he suppressed them in the end. He just raised his hand, pretending not to see Shen Qinglan.

Even the ministers shouted "Long live the emperor" at that moment, which was spectacular and solemn.

The prince was already sitting at the lower right of Emperor Jingren. When he followed Emperor Jingren into the palace, he had already noticed Shen Qinglan's presence, and his eyes had already brightened.

Emperor Jingren waved his hand, and immediately another eunuch began to shout, "If you have something to report, report it early; if you don't, dismiss the court."

Immediately, ministers began to report some government affairs to Emperor Jingren.

Emperor Jingren dealt with them one by one, but the eyes of the Ninth Prince, Prime Minister Jiang and others unconsciously fell on Shen Qinglan.

After a long while, they finally breathed a sigh of relief when they realized that Shen Qinglan really just came to listen to the government affairs and had no intention of speaking.

Immediately, at the suggestion of the two, some people began to criticize the prince again, saying that the prince was too young, only cared about his mother, and did not take the affairs of the court seriously, and was not fit to be the crown prince.

Although Emperor Jingren reprimanded the Crown Prince yesterday, it was only a verbal reprimand without any actual punishment, so the Ninth Prince and others were still somewhat dissatisfied.

After having another opportunity today, many ministers began to impeach the crown prince on the grounds of his age and his overly immature attitude towards handling things.

Those ministers were all in tears, as if the prince had killed their parents.

The prince sat at the lower right of Emperor Jingren, with a hint of grievance and depression on his young face.

He opened his mouth, but no words came out.

When Lu Huaizhu and others heard these people's attacks on the prince, how could they not fight back?

Immediately, the ministers, led by Lu Huaizhu and assisted by Lu Jinghuai, started arguing with the Ninth Prince's people in the court.

At the end of the argument, there were naturally many different opinions. Emperor Jingren looked unhappy and said in a cold voice:

"Have you had enough of the quarrel, my dears?"
