The Crown Princess is reborn and returns to subvert the world

At this time, in Kunning Palace, Queen Lan Ruyun's face was uncertain, and she was holding the teacup with her hands.

The maids and grandmothers around her were all silent, not daring to make the slightest sound for fear of disturbing her.

"The Emperor has arrived!" came the eunuch's sharp voice from outside.

Lan Ruyun had no choice but to stand up and kneel down with all the maids and women to greet the new emperor Tian Qiquan.

"I respectfully welcome the Emperor."

"Slave, I'm here to pay my respects to the Emperor."

Tian Qiquan stepped in with a cold expression, waved his long sleeves, and sat down on the high seat where Lan Ruyun was sitting just now.

Lan Ruyun motioned for everyone waiting to step back.

When she and Tian Qiquan were the only ones left in the room, she said coldly, "The emperor must have heard about the crazy news outside."

Tian Qiquan's face was stern, and he looked at Lan Ruyun with a sinister look, "Why, Queen, are you sad when you heard the news?"

Lan Ruyun was startled, then emphasized, "I'm just worried about Huan'er! Huan'er left outside Xuzhou City and there has been no news. Isn't the emperor worried about him?"

Tian Qiquan's deliberately propped up majesty suddenly felt like a deflated rubber ball, and his shoulders slumped. "How could I not be worried about him? I have sent secret guards to look for him. There should be news soon."

"When Prince Ning and the others arrive in Beijing, will there be any news?"

Tian Qiquan shook his head. He really couldn't guarantee that the secret guard would find Tian Muhuan as soon as possible.

But if he can't find Tian Muhuan, Tian Muyu and the others won't even think about entering the city!

Tian Qiquan thought this, and his eyes became more fierce.

"I'm worried about Huan'er, Huan'er..." Lan Ruyun didn't dare to express her suspicion. The 50,000 troops were taken away by Tian Muyu. Will Prince Ning, Tian Muhuan's man, be released?

"Tian Muyu doesn't dare to do anything to Huan'er!" The new emperor clenched his fists, "If he dares to touch my son, I will definitely make his head disappear!"

"What about him? Where is his coffin? I heard that the ministers insist on being buried in the imperial mausoleum. If those ministers are obeyed, Prince Ning, the third prince, the fifth prince, and the prince will come to the funeral. When the time comes... …”

Lan Ruyun started to cry.

She somewhat resented Tian Qiquan. He failed to seize the throne and went south to Fengyu County, leaving her alone for twenty years. Now he had only been on the throne for less than half a year. Not only did she lose contact with her son, but he also pushed her to the forefront.

Before the news of Emperor Likang's death reached the capital, the courtiers may have been afraid of the new emperor's rapid accession to the throne. Indeed, no one came forward to question the new emperor.

But after the news of Emperor Likang's death reached the capital, the ministers who had originally surrendered seemed to understand something and questioned the new emperor one after another.

Someone even spread the word to her, Lan Ruyun, saying that she and the Lan family were the culprits in the murder of the late emperor.

Originally, mother and son were able to live their lives peacefully.

But now...

"From now on, keep an eye on those women in the cold palace and don't let them cause any trouble. Currently, only Tian Muchen is still in the capital, but I have already sent people to keep an eye on him. Now he is in Anlefang You can't get out of the side gate, so there should be no problem on Queen Wei's side," Tian Qiquan said coldly.

"The one who needs to be careful is Concubine De. Although her son is still young, she arranged to leave the city early, which shows that she is very thoughtful. Her father is in the Ministry of Rites, has an upright temperament and is not good at relying on others, but if they want to unite with Wei If the queen and court officials come to oppose me, I'm afraid it will be very troublesome."

Lan Ruyun didn't look at him, "We are all in the cold palace, what kind of rumors can we uncover? Your Majesty, I'm afraid Bohu is worried about sleep, right?"

"You say I'm unfounded?!" Tian Qiquan was displeased.

"I just feel that Concubine De and the Empress have been locked up in the cold palace. Apart from a maid and a mother-in-law, they have no one to take care of them every day. How can they contact the courtiers outside?"

"Queen!" Tian Qiquan raised his voice, "Don't forget whose queen you are?! You have nothing to do with him anymore, and Huan'er is not his son, but my prince!"

Lan Ruyun said nothing.

Tian Qiquan's eyes showed a fierce light, "You won't be able to let go of him because you have lived with him for many years, right? Do you even want to protect the women he used to have?"

When Lan Ruyun heard this, she was so frightened that she stood up and knelt down in front of Tian Qiquan.

"Your Majesty, please don't accuse me unjustly. I was yours twenty years ago and will never become anyone else's."

"Then you listen to me and don't have any sympathy for them anymore! If not, you and I will both die!" After saying that, Tian Qiquan stood up, flung his sleeves and left.

After Tian Qiquan left, the maid and grandma dared to help Lan Ruyun, who was still kneeling on the ground.

"Miss."

Lan Ruyun stood up and pushed away the maid and grandma, "You all go out and leave me alone."

The maid and grandma had no choice but to retreat out of worry.

In the cold palace, Concubine De was wearing simple clothes and was embroidering a handkerchief in the yard.

Chun Xing came over hurriedly, "Mother, it's not good."

Concubine De raised her head, "What's wrong?"

"My servant just heard from the guards passing by outside that the Emperor has passed away."

Concubine De was startled, "Tian Qiquan died?!"

"It's not him, it's the late emperor." Chun Xing's last voice was stuck in her throat, for fear of making Concubine De sad.

The handkerchief fell to the ground, and Concubine De was stunned on the spot.

Aunt Wu quickly came over to pick up the handkerchief and glared at Chun Xing, "Be careful not to disturb the empress."

"Chun Xing, have they ever mentioned the fifth prince?" Concubine De finally calmed down and asked.

Chun Xing shook her head, "I just heard that, and those people walked over. I didn't hear what was said clearly."

Aunt Wu comforted her, "My dear, don't be too sad. The death of the emperor does not mean that something will happen to the fifth prince. The fifth prince is with Prince Ning and Princess Ning, and they will definitely protect him."

"Isn't the Emperor also with Prince Ning and Princess Ning?" Concubine De said.

She was worried that the emperor had encountered an accident.

If the emperor encounters an accident, then Prince Ning and Princess Ning will definitely not be in peace.

What about her fifth prince? He is still so young, will he be able to protect himself?

Thinking of this, Concubine De stood up and walked out, "I'm going to find the queen!"

"Empress!" Nanny Wu quickly stepped forward to stop her, "The Queen herself is in trouble and won't help us."

"I'm looking for Lan Ruyun!" Concubine De's voice suddenly rose in pitch.

Chun Xing and Nanny Wu were both stunned.

The two of them hesitated for a while, then both caught up with Concubine De, "Mother, we will go with you!"

However, when they reached the palace door, they discovered that the door was locked from the outside and could not be opened at all.

Mother Wu sighed, "Entering the Cold Palace is like entering the death row of Dali Temple. If you want to get out, it will be difficult to reach heaven."

"Lan Ruyun, let me out! The emperor has passed away, and I want to go out and keep vigil for the emperor!" Concubine De suddenly shouted loudly.
