Princess of the auxiliary country

Chapter 101; The Queen’s Means
"Don't be so surprised. What my mother told me is the truth, there is no exaggeration at all."

"Take a look at what she has done during this time. Is it possible for other girls to do it?"

Huo Jinyan nodded silently.

My little sister does have a lot of abilities. Even some men may not be able to do the things she does, let alone a girl.

Especially when he thought about the words of the old housekeeper, he felt that his little sister was very extraordinary.

"Mom, actually my son has always had a question in his mind."

"What question?"

Princess Ningyang asked curiously.

"What do you think is going on with this prince? Our family has not provoked him, so we are still victims, right? Why does he target us again and again?"

Not only was he confused about this matter, Princess Ningyang was also confused about it.

Logically speaking, they were the victims of the palace banquet, and they endured it by eating coptis.

Although the prince was punished by the emperor, it had nothing to do with them.

From beginning to end, they never said anything wrong with the prince.

But what about the prince?As soon as the confinement was over, they started attacking them again.

What path does this take?
Even if Duke Ji's official power is a little less powerful now, you, the prince, don't like it just because you don't like it. You don't have to trample on it again and again, right?
She is his aunt after all.

"I can't figure this out either. This prince was never like this before. After the palace banquet, he seemed to be a different person."

Speaking of the palace banquet, a bright light flashed in Huo Jinyan's mind.

"Do you think it's because of Zhao Yan'er?"

"I'm not sure. Maybe it has something to do with her."

Princess Ningyang now looks down upon Zhao Yaner in every possible way.

"Forget it, things are already like this. There is no use thinking about it. Not only him but Zhao Yan'er, our Duke Ji's office will not interact with them anymore."

Huo Jinyan nodded, but he felt more and more that Zhao Yan'er must have bewitched the prince.

Otherwise, how could the prince be so abnormal?
At noon, Huo Junyao served Huo Jinyan with hot pot. It was his first time eating hot pot, and Huo Jinyan was a little unable to eat chopsticks.

However, after seeing his mother and little sister eating so happily, he happily joined in after trying it.

Capital, Duke Cao's Mansion.

"I didn't expect Guo Fang to die like this. It's a pity."

Zhao Yaner spoke with some regret.

Speaking of Guo Fang, he was very kind to her.

She could be in love with the prince, and Guo Fang was playing the role of Yuelao and Hongyan at the same time.

After all, in the past, one of them was the lady of the boudoir and the other was the prince of the East Palace. Even if the Duke Yuki's palace was a platform, they would not meet many times.

Why she and the prince were able to understand each other was thanks to Guo Fang who helped her pass on the information.

And Guo Fang was bought by her early.

"It's a pity, but he deserves to die."

Hearing this, Zhao Yan'er nodded in agreement, a cold light flashed in her eyes and said, "I thought he was a smart person, but I didn't want to do such a stupid thing."

The stupid thing she did here was referring to the incident where he instigated the prince to target Hong Xiu.

Speaking of which, Huo Jinyan really misunderstood Zhao Yan'er. Guo Fang would do this, and it was really not Zhao Yan'er's fault.

Thoughts During this time, Zhao Yaner, although she was filled with resentment, her mind was still very clear.She has already obtained the position of Crown Princess, and the top priority is to make the Crown Prince's position stable. After all, she is the Crown Princess only if she is the Crown Prince, right?

Therefore, she never thought about becoming a demon at all, at least she didn't think so before entering the East Palace.

"You can send a message over there to tell everyone over there to be calm and to avoid causing trouble to the prince during this period. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless."

Although she hasn't gone to the East Palace yet, she has a lot of people there.

And as the crown princess appointed by the emperor's decree, even if she hadn't married yet, there were still many people in the East Palace who were willing to fawn over her.

The maid stepped back, and Zhao Yaner slowly picked up the teacup beside her and took a sip.

"Huo Junyao, just wait. From now on, I will keep you out of your way to survive and not to die."

Fengqi Palace.

"After this incident, the prince will have to spend some time and means to win people's hearts in the future."

Emperor Zhaowu already knew about the rumors among the nobles.

He had expected this. At first, when Huo Jingzhi stood up to speak for the prince in the court, he was a little confused, but he soon figured out his intention.

Angry?No, after all, this is bound to happen. Even if Huo Jingzhi didn't do it deliberately, the officials would think so.

After all, as for the things the prince did, it was his own fault to have such a result.

"When you make a mistake, you should find a way to make up for it yourself. You can't blame others."

Queen Shen was not angry at all about this. After all, this could not be blamed on anyone but the prince himself.

"I have wronged that girl Jun Yao again."

Huo Junyao has always felt guilty in her heart, not only for what happened many years ago, but also for the recent palace banquet, and for what happened this time.

It can be said that Huo Junyao has suffered a lot of grievances, but on the one hand, she is the prince, and she really has no choice.

"Hmph, I shouldn't have agreed to marry Zhao Yan'er as the crown princess."

Huo Jinyan and Princess Ningyang could notice the sudden change in the prince, so how could Emperor Zhaowu not notice it?
"I underestimated Zhao Yan'er, but he actually reached out to the East Palace early."

Hearing this, Queen Shen's eyes also turned cold.

Although Guo Fang is dead, Queen Shen will still investigate his sudden instigation. How can she keep this investigation of the goings-on between Guo Fang and Zhao Yaner from her?

Not only Guo Fang, but also those in the East Palace who have taken refuge in Zhao Yaner have been found.

"Your Majesty, don't worry about the affairs of the harem. Just leave it to your concubines."

Not to mention that Zhao Yaner has not yet become the crown princess, so what if she does?

Shouldn't she, the queen, have the final say in this harem?

That afternoon, as many as 37 maids and chamberlains in the East Palace were killed by the Queen's decree.

The queen personally issued the order, and although the prince was a little confused, he wouldn't say anything more.

But when Zhao Yaner learned the news, her heart suddenly became cold and her face turned pale.

These 37 people were all people she bribed or took refuge in. Now that the queen has taken the blame, doesn't it mean that the queen already knows that she secretly let these people use their words to seduce the prince?
Just when she was uneasy and worried whether the queen would take action against her, an edict came to Cao Guogong's mansion.

The content of the decree is very simple. As the royal daughter-in-law of Lai Wei, Zhao Yaner needs to learn the rules well, and the people around her are no exception. Two nuns were also specially given to teach her.

There is nothing wrong with this decree and it is in line with the rules.

It's just that on the evening of the day when Yi's decree was issued, Zhao Yan'er was surrounded by two maids and a nun. Because she expressed dissatisfaction with the queen, the two nurturing nuns directly ordered her to be killed with a cane.
