The regent is a yandere who needs to be pampered

Chapter 11 Rong Yu treats her well

Although the regent held great power, he had no interest in the struggle for the throne, so he never participated in the forces of any prince, allowing them to fight to the death.

If the regent had not turned a blind eye, the third prince would not have been able to get the support of most of the court officials so smoothly. If Rong Yu expressed his opinion, all the princes would be instantly crushed into slag.

Since the regent did not interfere with the ownership of the crown prince, and the emperor's health was getting worse and worse, and he was basically in a confused state in the later period, the ministers recommended the third prince to him one after another as wise and virtuous and capable of taking on the great responsibility. When even the queen mother supported the third prince, the emperor naturally had no reason to oppose.

In the winter of the 34th year of Emperor Jing, the emperor passed away, and the third prince Rong Chuyun ascended the throne, with the title of Emperor Huai, and the next year was the first year of Emperor Huai.

That year, the regent was 21 years old, already the youngest regent in the history of the Great Zhou, two years younger than the newly succeeded emperor.

That year, Nan Xi was fourteen years old, and her relationship with Gu Qingshu became more stable.

The new emperor ascended the throne, pardoned the world, and rewarded meritorious officials.

As a staff member of the Third Prince's Mansion, Gu Qingshu made the greatest contribution in the Third Prince's fight for the throne, and naturally became the new favorite of the emperor. The year after the new emperor ascended the throne, that is, the autumn of the first year of Emperor Huai, Gu Qingshu made a big splash in the palace examination. His article "On Governing the Country" won the applause of the whole hall, and he was immediately selected by the new emperor as the new champion.

That year, Nan Xi was fifteen years old, and Gu Qingshu was just in his early twenties, but he was already full of vigor and vitality.

Who among the powerful and noble sons in the imperial capital did not envy him?

Nan Xi was really proud of him and happy for him. She had planned to pave a smooth career path for him.

The fifteen-year-old girl had reached the age of marriage, and that year was also the time for them to discuss marriage. The newly crowned champion Gu Qingshu went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to propose marriage. The Prime Minister had long been very satisfied with this son-in-law. The father-in-law and son-in-law naturally hit it off and quickly agreed on an auspicious date and decided to hold the wedding in February of the following year.

However, after the Chinese New Year, before she had time to prepare for the wedding, Nan Xi was forcibly taken to the palace by the Regent with an order and never came out again.

To be fair, Rong Yu treated her very well.

But Nan Xi's heart was tied to Gu Qingshu. The girl was also straightforward. In addition, she was born in the Prime Minister's Mansion, a noble family. She had never been afraid of anyone in these years, and naturally she was not polite to the Regent.

So when she first entered the Regent's Mansion, she quarreled, made a scene, and went on a hunger strike to protest, but the Regent was unmoved. He only arranged for maids to serve her carefully, and doctors to be on call around the clock. Top-quality silk materials and precious jewelry were sent to her as soon as possible, but they were always thrown away by Nan Xi without mercy.

Then, Nan Yue took the initiative to ask for an audience.

Nan Xi knew about this sister, but as the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, she always disdained the sister born to the woman her father raised outside.

But this time was different.

After being trapped in the Regent's Mansion for half a month, it was the first time that someone she knew came to see her, and it was rare that the Regent was willing to let the sisters meet. Later, Nan Xi learned that Nan Yue had promised in front of the Regent that she could properly guide her sister. Rong Yu probably had no other tricks, so she agreed to let Nan Yue in.

However, Nan Xi thought Nan Yue brought her good news and hope, but she never expected that it was a pair of devil's claws that sent her to hell.
