The prince supports her, and the reborn princess kills people

Seeing how depressed several people were, Shen Qingyan had no choice but to comfort them instead.

"Alright, alright. You look so dejected. It's just a grounding. It's not a big deal."

Qingmei and the others seemed to be hesitant to speak, and their faces became even more gloomy.

Shen Qingyan suddenly couldn't help laughing. It was really worth it to have a few people around her who truly cared about her.

"Stop it, everyone, cheer up. I have a plan to fight back. Do you want to hear it?"

When Qingmei heard this, she knew that her princess had already had an idea.

Zhiqing Zhiyu immediately perked up.

"Princess, please speak."

The master and his servants "plotted" in the room for a long time.

*

Qingyueyuan.

The moment Gu Beihuai carried the person into the yard, he let go of his hand.

Fuling was caught off guard and almost fell down.

Gu Beihuai frowned and brushed off the dust on his body, his tone cold.

"You should know why I gave you some face. Also, I think you know better than me what to do and what not to do."

Fuling certainly knew it, because her existence was just a chess piece.

So she said respectfully: "I understand."

In front of you, I understand everything clearly, but after you, I may understand or not understand.

The fragrance of Fuling still lingered on his body, making Gu Beihuai feel uncomfortable, so he immediately went to take a shower and change clothes.

Half an hour later, in the palace study.

Gu Beihuai was flipping through the memorials, reviewing them while preparing for tomorrow's funeral.

Just then, the monsoon came in a hurry.

"Your Highness, you guessed correctly. Feng Guilun really escaped to Jiangnan. I have sent people to control him."

Gu Beihuai raised his eyes to look at him and gave a faint instruction.

"Don't make it public yet. Keep him in custody."

"Yes."

A few days ago, Feng Guilun knew that his secret sale of gunpowder had been exposed. He had witnessed Gu Beihuai's ruthless methods and naturally knew that he could not escape. So he fled under the pretext of visiting relatives in Jiangnan, taking only a few servants with him and abandoning his family.

No one in the Shangshu Mansion knew Feng Guilun’s true purpose, and they were still waiting for him to come back in the mansion, not knowing that they were about to face a catastrophe.

The reason why Gu Beihuai didn't touch him first was, firstly, because he had already intercepted the circulation of gunpowder in the black market, and secondly, Feng Guilun could still be useful.

After he ascended the throne, he naturally needed something as a springboard to achieve his goal of making three big moves upon taking office, and Feng Guilun was the best springboard.

Late at night.

Fuling was promoted to a concubine and lived in Lingyun Courtyard.

She also had two maids serving her.

But she was very unhappy.

The reason for her existence was not because Gu Beihuai liked her and wanted to elevate her status, but for Shen Qingyan.

Unconsciously, she had already made herself Gu Beihuai's woman, and Shen Qingyan was an obstacle in competing with her for the position.

She didn't even take a small concubine seriously.

What she wanted was the supreme position.

But now, it seems too far-fetched.

After much thought, I decided that the only way to take the first step was to get rid of Shen Qingyan.

So she wrote a letter and asked her personal maid Xiaoqin to leave the palace at night and deliver the letter to Feng Yue'er.

Little did she know that as soon as Xiaoqin left, she was targeted by someone.

At this time, Shen Qingyan had not slept yet and was leisurely drinking jasmine tea.

This was sent by Qiu Ying. She hadn't come to see her for a long time since the last incident, but the food she sent was quite a lot.

Shen Qingyan especially loves this jasmine tea, which is fresh and delicious, with a natural and mellow floral aroma. She wants to drink a cup every time before going to bed.

Just as I was about to fall asleep, Zhiyu came hurriedly to report.

"Princess, as you expected, Fuling's maid left the house late at night and went to the Shangshu Mansion."

"I will hand over to Ghost Blade's men, and they will keep an eye on the Shangshu Mansion."

"Not bad." Shen Qingyan nodded and asked, "Where's Hua Yan? How are the preparations going?"

Hua Yan was outside and came in when she heard the sound.

"Sister Princess, everything is ready. Do you think it looks good?"

The gunpowder packs were tied so tightly that they even smelled exactly like the real thing.

"I secretly learned about the shapes of many gunpowder bags and made a lot of them."

There are tubular ones, medicine bag ones, and various shapes.

"Ghost Blade."

Ghost Blade appeared silently, "Here."

"The next step is your mission."

"Yes."

Ghost Blade took the gunpowder bag and left quietly.

After explaining everything, Shen Qingyan fell asleep peacefully.

If I'm not mistaken, it will only happen in the next two days.

She not only wanted to slap Fuling in the face, but also wanted her to wake up and know what to do and what not to do.

The next day.

Gu Beihuai entered the palace early in the morning and did not bring Fuling with him this time.

So she came to annoy Shen Qingyan early in the morning.

After Shen Qingyan became pregnant, she would sleep a little longer in the morning. Since Fuling came so early, Qingmei certainly wouldn't report it.

No one should disturb my princess' sleep. Who asked you to come so early? If you want to wait, just wait.

Fuling was not angry. She waited patiently in the main hall, as if she would not give up until she saw Shen Qingyan.

She had made up her mind that if Shen Qingyan still cared about her status and dignity as the mistress of the palace, she would not have done something to deliberately make things difficult for her on the first day she came to pay her respects.

She had inquired about it. People in Tianfeng Country are very particular about face, especially women. Every word and action is related to reputation, and some even concern the entire family.

Little did they know that in the palace, all the damn rules and reputations were just empty talk.

Fuling realized this truth after waiting for half an hour without even having a sip of tea.

Shisu and Shion looked at her from left and right, without moving.

Let's see who can keep calm first.

In the end, it was Fuling who lost her patience.

"you……"

Zi Su's originally cold expression immediately changed into a signature fake smile, and she said lightly, "Aunt Fu, please wait a moment. The princess will be up soon."

Fuling choked. She couldn't leave now, nor did she have to stay. What else could she do?

"I was just saying, you look familiar to me, have you ever served in the Crown Prince's palace?"

It looks familiar.

Ziyuan said expressionlessly, "What are you talking about, Aunt Fu? Tianfeng Kingdom doesn't have a crown prince."

Fuling was relentless and pretended to be gentle, "There are no outsiders here, you don't have to hide it. We have all served in the Eastern Palace in Southern Xinjiang. Now that we meet again, we are like sisters. Why don't we sit down and talk together?"

Zi Su said with a fake smile: "Madam Fu, you are joking. We are of different statuses. How dare I, your servant?"

Don't be fooled.

Fuling felt a tightness in her chest, unable to either go up or down.

When she failed to reminisce about the past, she started to find fault.

"You have served the prince of Southern Xinjiang before, but now you have a new master, and you don't know how to entertain guests? I have been here for so long, but I haven't even had a cup of hot tea. I wonder if you are deliberately slacking off, or if the princess ordered you to do this?"
