The prince supports her, and the reborn princess kills people

Shen Qingyan casually mentioned the Queen to Gu Ruxiao, "Do you want to send some of this barbecue to the Queen?"

Gu Ruxiao's expression was a little strange. "No need. My mother...is now devoted to Buddhism and no longer eats meat."

what?

For Shen Qingyan, who now has a big appetite, it is really unbearable to not have meat.

What has irritated the queen? "So, what does she eat?"

"I'm a vegetarian."

That's right. Who can stand such delicious barbecue that smells so good from miles away but is eating vegetarian food?

"What's wrong with the Queen?" Gu Ruxiao choked and lowered his voice and said, "Mother is praying for my brother." Shen Qingyan didn't understand, but respected.

But with the Queen's temperament, it is absolutely impossible for her to be so calm. Shen Qingyan thought about it, quietly gave Qingmei a plate of barbecue, and gave her a few instructions.

Qingmei quietly left and walked towards the Queen's tent. Not long after, Qingmei came back empty-handed. "How was it?" Shen Qingyan asked. Qingmei whispered to her, "The Queen's personal maid Bai Shao said that the Queen doesn't eat these things, so I said it shouldn't be wasted, so I gave it to Bai Shao."

"I followed your instructions and observed for a while. Not long after, the palace maid quietly brought in the barbecue." Shen Qingyan couldn't help laughing. The Queen would definitely not be able to give up her meaty habits in a short time. She was just doing it for show to others.

Of course, it was all for Gu Beihuai. The queen was a bit pitiful. As a queen, she was not favored by the emperor. She devoted herself to her only son and wanted to tie him to her side. However, she over-exerted herself and got the opposite result. Now...

I couldn’t imagine how crazy she would be if she knew that her biological son had died long ago and that Gu Beihuai was not her biological son.

The Queen's tent.

The queen took a bite of the venison leg meat and said viciously: "Shen Qingyan, this little bitch, she is very smart." She actually saw through her disguise and deliberately sent someone to send meat. Humph, if it weren't for the fact that this meat was really delicious, she would definitely punish her! The queen had been in the tent for too long and couldn't sit still. She didn't eat enough of the barbecue that Shen Qingyan sent.

So, taking advantage of the dark and windy night when everyone had gone to bed, she took the palace maids out of the tent and walked towards the river.

The palace maid Bai Shao was a little puzzled, "Empress, if you want to eat grilled fish, just give the order. Why bother going to the river in person..." "Shut up." The Queen said angrily, "Do you want everyone to see that I, a vegetarian, eat meat?" Bai Shao was so scared that she dared not say anything more.

When they reached the river, the queen looked at the turbulent water and was a little afraid to step in. After hesitating for a moment, she said to Bai Shao, "Go down and catch some fish for me."

Huh? Bai Shao was shocked. She didn't dare to go into the water! But she had to obey the Queen's order. She could only take off her shoes and socks and go into the water. However, Bai Shao still overestimated herself.

The river was not a stream, and the current was very fast. She was thin, so she was knocked down as soon as she entered. "Ah!" Bai Shao screamed in panic, "Empress, help me!"

Fortunately, there was a dead tree nearby, and she held on tightly to it so that she was not washed away. The queen was also shocked, but she was used to a life of luxury and didn't know what to do when encountering such a thing.

She didn't want to call for help, mainly because she was afraid that people would know that she came to the river to steal fish in the middle of the night. So she found a branch and offered it to Bai Shao.

Bai Shao wanted to use the force to climb up, but she slipped and even pulled the queen down with her.

The angry queen shouted angrily, "How do you do things? Do you want to harm me on purpose?" Bai Shao opened her mouth to apologize, but gulped down a few gulps of water.

It was obvious that the dry branches could not bear the weight of the two people, and faint signs of breakage appeared.

What to do? The queen didn't care about her image anymore and quickly shouted "Help". But in order not to be discovered, they deliberately walked away, so no one came after shouting for a long time.

That night, Shen Qingyan couldn't sleep. Gu Wenyu invited Gu Beihuai to discuss ghost soldiers and business matters. She was not used to sleeping alone, and she was a little full after eating too much meat today.

So I went out for a walk with Qingmei. The moonlight was bright, and a full moon hung high in the sky, emitting a soft light.

Since it was cooler by the river, Shen Qingyan and Qingmei walked along the river together.

Suddenly, they heard a woman's cry for help. The voice sounded familiar and not far from them.

Could it be that a woman who came to hunt fell into the water? Shen Qingyan and Qingmei immediately followed the sound, but before they arrived, they saw two women rushing down at the same time.

It was the Queen and the maids around her! Seeing Shen Qingyan, the Queen no longer cared about the previous hatred and hurriedly called for help.

Shen Qingyan was surprised. Oh, was it a coincidence that she came here? Seeing her indifferent look, the queen became anxious.

"Shen Qingyan, as long as you can save me, I will definitely remember your kindness and will no longer hold grudges against you for what happened before."

Shen Qingyan was completely speechless. Who should be concerned with whom? It was her favor to save him, and it was her duty not to save him, okay?

She pretended to be embarrassed, "Empress, it's not that I won't help you, but the water is too deep. I'm afraid that if I can't save you, you will go to hell and then complain to me. What will I do?"

The queen cursed in her heart, "Little bitch, you wish I was dead, don't you?" But on the surface, she was not ordinary sincere. She could stop and talk to Shen Qingyan because she grabbed a few water plants on the shore and was about to collapse. Not to mention that there was Bai Shao who was about to drown behind her and grabbed her clothes tightly.

"Shen Qingyan, as long as you can save me, I will agree to any condition you ask!"

"Does the Queen mean what she said?"

"I will never break my promise!"

With this condition, Shen Qingyan felt much more at ease when saving people.

After pulling the Queen and Bai Shao up, Shen Qingyan and Qingmei were also wet.

Qingmei said quickly: "Princess, let's go back as soon as possible, otherwise we will catch a cold."

Shen Qingyan sneezed, nodded in agreement, and then asked the queen, "Why did the queen fall into the water?"

The Queen was soaked like a drowned chicken. She said unhappily, "I naturally fell in accidentally. Did you jump in on purpose?"

Shen Qingyan thought it was not that simple. "It is really unsafe for the queen to appear in the river in the middle of the night with only one maid. Those guards should be punished. I will ask the prince to punish them severely after returning."

The queen felt somewhat guilty, "No need, I didn't let them follow." Bai Shao's teeth couldn't stop chattering at the side, and the clucking sound sounded a little creepy in the moonlight.

After careful thought, Shen Qingyan could roughly guess why the queen fell into the water.
