Chapter 95 Regret

When the queen was deposed, some people were happy and some were angry.

When the ministers of the court heard the news that the queen was deposed, some people hurried into the palace to meet the saint. When the prince of the East Palace, Mu Xiuhan, heard the news, it was like a bolt from the blue, and his expression changed on the spot.

"The queen was deposed?" Mu Xiuhan stood up suddenly, his face turned pale, "Why?"

The servant in the East Palace didn't know the inside story, so he only heard the general story: "I heard that it was because the direct princess...offended Princess Nanyang..."

It’s Princess Nanyang again!

Mu Xiuhan smashed the tea cup in his hand, and his face immediately darkened: "Yan Li, this disaster star, is really lingering!"

Ever since he broke off his engagement with her, things have not gone well for him.

Damn thing.

She is his nemesis!

"Your Highness, what should we do now?"

Mu Xiuhan said nothing, feeling angry and uneasy in his heart.

After being angry, he felt a little scared and even regretful. If he had known that Yan Li had such a heavy weight in his father's heart, maybe he shouldn't have broken off the engagement so impulsively.

Yan Li is the cousin of the Jiang family. Even if he does not break off the engagement, marrying her is not a loss. After all, the Jiang family will still be his support, and Taifu Jiang's reputation as a virtuous and respected person will not be damaged because of Yan Li.

With the military support of the vassal uncle from outside, and the reputation of the Taifu in the court, as long as he behaves well and does not make big mistakes, the father has no reason to abolish the queen and abolish the crown prince. When he ascends the throne, he can find any reason to make Yan Li the fourth concubine.

First, wouldn't it be better to appoint another queen when the time comes and let her fend for herself in the palace?

No matter what, it's better than the current dilemma.

Mu Xiuhan frowned, feeling panicked for a moment, thinking anxiously about how to make up for his previous mistakes - it was definitely impossible to cancel Jiang Jingyue's marriage, and his father would not allow the order to be changed overnight, not to mention that Yan Li was already betrothed to the Nine Emperors Uncle.

So how can we reverse the current situation?

"Come here!" Mu Xiu ordered coldly, "Pick a decent gift from the warehouse. I will go to Jiang's house."

Upon hearing the order, a guard stepped over the threshold and bowed to report: "Your Royal Highness, Manager Xiao has just conveyed the emperor's order that the palace gates are under martial law and no one is allowed to leave the palace without permission."

Mu Xiuhan's expression changed, and he fell down on the chair with a thud, feeling as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

Yan Li couldn't feel the anxiety in the East Palace, and she had no interest in caring about it.

After leaving the palace and returning to Jiang's house, Luo Shi, who was waiting in Liuli Courtyard, saw her coming back. There was a bit of pride on his face: "Have you been accused by the queen? Yan Li, even if you are favored by the emperor, you should not be arrogant.

, even the legitimate princess is not looked down upon! Do you know that the legitimate princess is the emperor’s own bloodline, and you were only born as a result of your mother doing something that humiliated the family tradition—"

"The Queen has been deposed."

Luo Shi's voice stopped and he looked at Yan Li blankly: "You, what did you say?"

"I said that the queen was deposed. Just before I left the palace, the emperor just issued the imperial edict." Yan Li stared at her quietly for a moment, then smiled lightly, "Auntie, there is no need to preach to me. Facts have proved that,

Even if they are the queen and the princess who are above me, I still don't have to take them seriously."

Leaving these words behind, she ignored Luo Shi's pale and white complexion and walked away from her.

Luo Shi stood as stiffly as a wooden sculpture, with waves of uneasiness flashing through his eyes.

The Queen was deposed?

This...how is this possible? This news must not be true, Yan Li is lying!

However, Luo Shi was still uneasy. After some time, she hurriedly called her personal nanny and asked her to inquire about the news: "Go and ask quickly. I want to know whether the news about the emperor's deposed queen is true or false."

She vaguely guessed that what Yan Li said was true. No one dared to joke about such a thing, not to mention that Yan Li came back so quickly... This was enough to prove that she had not been punished in the palace.

The rebellious behavior of slapping the princess was not punished. Luo had no choice but to believe that Yan Li was indeed very capable, so she became increasingly aware that something bad was going on. She hurriedly turned around and told her husband Jiang Yunming about the incident.

Jiang Yunming's face changed suddenly when he heard this, and he had the same expression as if the sky was falling: "The Queen has been deposed?"

"Yan Li said so." Luo Shi's face turned pale and he twisted his handkerchief uneasily, "Master, I... what should we do? If the queen is deposed, will it affect the prince's position as heir apparent? What if the prince also

If we are deposed, what will we, Jingyue, do?"

"I'm going to see my father." Jiang Yunming couldn't wait a moment and hurriedly left the study to find his father.

Taifu Jiang has suffered many setbacks in his work these days. Not only did he lose his Sacred Heart, but he also lost his face in front of the Ninth Prince...and all of this was attributed to a few unfilial grandsons of the Jiang family.

Taifu Jiang deeply reflected on himself and felt chilled by the upbringing of his three grandsons. He lived in seclusion for more than ten days and did not want to get involved in trivial matters outside.

Especially things related to Yan Li.

But just because he doesn't want to ask, it doesn't mean it won't happen.

When he heard what Jiang Yunming said, his expression froze little by little: "The Queen was deposed?"

"Yes, the news we just got." Jiang Yunming frowned, "Father, what should we do? Should the prince and Jingyue's marriage be postponed? What if..."

"Why are you procrastinating?" Taifu Jiang scolded angrily, "This marriage was given by the emperor, and it is what you all want. Now that you are seeing the queen lose power, you have to delay it? What do you think of the royal family? How do you know that the queen will not do it in the future?

Will it be restored?"

Jiang Yunming was so scolded that he did not dare to refute, but he still had hidden worries in his heart: "What if the queen and her son really lose power like this?"

Grand Tutor Jiang raised his hand to rub the center of his brow, and sat there for a long time before speaking seriously: "The emperor's heart is unpredictable, and partisanship always carries risks. If you want to be prosperous and wealthy, and to be a powerful minister, you must be prepared for failure."

.No one can guarantee that the prince will ascend to the throne in the future, and no one can guarantee that the Jiang family will remain in honor and favor for hundreds of years."

Jiang Yunming frowned and said nothing.

That being said, if they saw the queen and her son losing power, would they really do nothing?

"After Yan Li was named Princess of Nanyang, I remember I reminded you more than once to be polite to her, stay away from her if you can't be friendly, and don't always come forward to find trouble. Have you done this?" Mrs. Jiang said coldly.

Looking at him, his eyes were full of disappointment, "None of the descendants of the Jiang family are successful, so their decline will be a matter of time!"

Jiang Yunming's expression turned pale, and he was filled with fear.

At this moment, instead of resenting Yan Li, perhaps it was the threat brought about by the rise and fall of the family that finally made him feel a little regretful.

He never expected that Yan Li would lead to such a result. Even the queen and the princess would not be able to take any advantage in front of her. If they had known all this, even if Jingyue did not become the crown prince, they would never let the prince break off the engagement.
