The Crown Princess is reborn and returns to subvert the world
Chapter 377 What to do about the late emperor’s funeral
"My queen, please don't shout, please don't shout!" Nanny Wu was so frightened that her face changed. "If the Queen finds out, she will cause trouble for you."
The women imprisoned in the harem are not even as good as the ordinary maids in the palace. Masters from outside can come and bully them at any time, let alone the now powerful concubines in the harem.
Normally, they would suffer unreasonable disasters if they were left alone. Concubine De's direct calling of the new queen's name today was simply a life-threatening act.
"Mother, please don't let anything happen to you. There is no news about the fifth prince yet. If the fifth prince comes back and doesn't see you, will he die of grief?" Aunt Wu tried her best to dissuade her.
Suddenly, there were rapid footsteps outside.
Immediately afterwards, a eunuch's drake voice was heard, "Who is calling the Queen's name? Are you looking for death?!"
After a sound of unlocking, the palace door was opened.
An old eunuch stared at Concubine De with sinister eyes.
"Go tell Lan Ruyun that I want to see her!" Concubine De was still full of momentum.
Anyway, it's now time. No matter how honest and obedient I am, I'm still waiting for death in the cold palace. It's better to risk my life and die happily.
Of course, she didn't want to die like this. She wanted to take advantage of Emperor Likang's death to go out and look for a chance to survive. She also wanted to meet the fifth prince.
The old eunuch looked sideways at Concubine De, "You can also call the queen by her name?" He glanced at the young eunuch who followed him, "Hit me hard!"
Just as the few young eunuchs were about to step forward, they looked at Concubine Shangde's majestic eyes and were instantly discouraged.
He was too timid to step forward.
"Didn't you hear what I said?!" The old eunuch's voice was harsh.
The little eunuch then moved forward.
One of the young eunuchs took out a whip and was about to whip it at Concubine De.
Aunt Wu suddenly stopped in front, "She is the Concubine De, are you actually going to attack the Concubine De?!"
"She is your master after all. Even if she lives in this cold palace, she is still your master!"
The old eunuch snorted coldly, "Mother Wu, get out of the way! You have been serving in the palace for many years and you still don't know the rules of the palace?!"
"We used to be masters, so we will treat you as masters. But now we are no longer, so we can only treat you as slaves! Your Majesty has said that if you are not honest at this time, you can be dealt with by me as you please!"
As he spoke, he laughed twice, and the laughter was like a ghost coming to take away people's souls.
"Didn't the emperor allow us to attend the funeral of the late emperor?!" Concubine De angrily shouted, "I am the late emperor's concubine, you can't stop me from going to see the late emperor off!"
The old servant was stunned for a moment, and then his face turned even colder, "How did you know about the late emperor?!"
Concubine De shouted again, "Lan Ruyun, you were once the late emperor's concubine. When the late emperor passed away, you can't stop us from going out to see him off!"
When the old eunuch saw that Concubine De deliberately publicized the death of Emperor Likang in the harem, he was so angry that he yelled at several young eunuchs, "Hurry up, stop her mouth!"
Aunt Wu protected Concubine De in front of her, "Whoever dares to bully the empress, I will fight him to the death!"
Chun Xing also came up, "And me, unless I die, none of you can even think of bullying the empress!"
At this time, Concubine De shouted even more vigorously, "The late emperor passed away. As the concubine of the late emperor, I must go to see the late emperor off. The new emperor and the new empress have no right to stop me."
The more he shouted, the more maids and servants from nearby Leng Palace would naturally come to watch the fun.
The concubines living in the palace near Leng Palace naturally heard it.
As a result, the news that Concubine De desperately wanted to bury the late emperor soon reached the ears of the new empress.
Lan Ruyun felt a headache after hearing the maid's report.
At this time, her old father, the current Prime Minister Lan Xing'an, was also approaching.
Lan Xing'an said, "The emperor has not received any definite news about the death of the late emperor, so why did it spread to the harem?"
Lan Ruyun was helpless, "It has spread all over the capital, and the harem is not impregnable. But, how could something that the emperor is not sure about spread so widely?"
Lan Ruyun looked up at her old father with suspicion in her eyes, "Father, what do you think about this?"
"How else can we look at it? The late emperor is probably really dead."
"What should we do? Let De Fei and the others come out?" Lan Ruyun covered her head, "Thinking of the way they looked at me makes me panic."
"If they are not allowed to come out, those officials are afraid that they will cause trouble again. In the past few days, when I went to court every day, the people at the Yushitai acted like madmen, asking the emperor how to arrange the funeral of the late emperor." Lan Xing'an said.
The annoyance on Lan Xing'an's face was obvious, "Jinling and Yangzhou were occupied by Tian Muyu one after another, and the emperor was already in a bad mood. So he was worried that this was also a plan of Prince Ning and others, with the purpose of going to Beijing to force the palace."
Lan Ruyun suddenly raised her head, "If Prince Ning's people are going to Beijing, what about Huan'er and the others? Did something happen to them?!"
Lan Xing'an, "I have been worried about this, but the people sent out have never sent back any news, and I don't know what the situation is over there."
While the two were talking, Tian Qiquan hurried over.
Lan Xing'an and Lan Ruyun were so frightened that they quickly saluted.
"Your Majesty, why didn't you let me know when you came to my concubine?" Lan Ruyun asked.
Tian Qiquan looked at Lan Xing'an with a very cold expression, "There is news from Xuzhou."
Lan Xing'an stood up immediately, "Prince, he captured Xuzhou?!"
Tian Qiquan threw a letter to Lan Xing'an, "Read it yourself!"
