"Queen, don't make arrogant remarks just because His Majesty favors you. This matter is about the country, the country, and the country. You can't make such arrogant remarks."

"Do you know what the current situation in the court is like? If there is no successor, those ministers will not give up at all."

"The Prince of Qin is considered to be a member of the Ai family who has grown up since he was a child. He has a good temper. Please mention it to His Majesty when you get back."

Xu Jinyi was also stubborn. She didn't refuse, but she also didn't agree and didn't reply at all.

This attitude made the Queen Mother angry, and she was extremely dissatisfied with Xu Jinyi.

But on the first day of the wedding, there is no way to punish the queen.

Otherwise, people would think that she, the Queen Mother, was dissatisfied with the emperor's choice of queen.

Out of sight, out of mind, the Queen Mother simply dismissed the person.

After Xu Jinyi left, the Queen Mother complained again: "This is not as good as the imperial concubine? At least the imperial concubine is obedient."

Xu Jinyi didn't know that what she said just now would offend the Queen Mother, but she didn't care.

Anyway, if she finds out she is pregnant after a month, the Queen Mother will naturally have no objection to her.

-

The emperor was sitting in the Jiaofang Hall correcting the memorial. After listening to what the secret guards had found out, he was silent for just a moment before making a decision.

To him, the princess was just the child of his half-sister, and he didn't have much emotion.

So she immediately ordered the secret guards to rescue the people, bring the imperial edict, and consult all the officials in her house. Those who didn't want to stay could leave.

But the emperor hesitated for a moment about the punishment of the princess. After all, he had to look at the queen mother's face.

But it would definitely not work without punishment. Not to mention it was because of the queen, the courtiers had long been dissatisfied with what the princess had done.

By virtue of being the princess, she had forced many men in the capital to be in front of her.

If those ministers didn't want to cause trouble, they would have reported her long ago.

It's okay to force the minister's concubine or someone who has just graduated from high school.

Nowadays, even a major general who has just returned from a victorious battle dares to imprison him. This is a sign of impatience.

If he didn't punish him, wouldn't he chill the hearts of the soldiers?

Thinking of this, the emperor directly took away the title of Princess Xiyue, demoted her to a commoner, and could not enter the palace without being summoned.

Of course, he would not admit that it was because the imprisoned person was the queen's brother that he was punished so severely.

From being a noble princess to being demoted to a commoner, the princess would probably go crazy because of this disparity.

Although it had little impact on her mother and brother, it was very detrimental to her.

When Xu Jinyi learned that her brother had been found, she was so happy that she ran directly into the emperor's arms.

"Your Majesty, have you really found where my concubine's brother is? Where are the others? Where is he? Why is he alive but not back?"

Upon hearing the news, tears immediately appeared in Xu Jinyi's eyes and she clutched the emperor's sleeve tightly.

The dizzy state of pear blossoms and rain really made the emperor feel distressed. He sighed and took the person into his arms.

"Your brother, I have already asked the secret guards to rescue him. You have to blame me for this matter."

Xu Jinyi looked at him doubtfully.

The emperor slowly revealed everything: "It's strange for me. I clearly know about Xiyue forcing people to be killed in person, and the ministers in the court also have opinions, but I have always done nothing."

"If I hadn't been condoning what she did, your brother wouldn't have been imprisoned for this."

"My mother likes that girl Xiyue very much, so I just turn a blind eye to her. After all, it's rare for my mother to like those two brothers and sisters so much."

"I'm sorry for you."

Then he talked about the punishment he had given to the princess and the departure and stay of those dishonest people.

Xu Jinyi was immediately moved when she learned that he had demoted the princess to a commoner.

She thought it would take a lot of effort to trip up the princess.

He thought that the most he could do was to ground the princess, but he didn't expect that the title that the princess was so proud of would be taken away from him all at once.

This would probably be more difficult to hurt than asking her to give up those facial features.

Xu Jinyi is actually very satisfied with this result.

The Princess Mansion family takes their time, she is not in a hurry.

In the princess's mansion, the princess who received the imperial edict was confused. She didn't know how the emperor could find out about this matter.

Obviously she has done it very cleanly.

She had no choice but to watch Xu Haoran being taken away, and she had to face the anger of her mother, the eldest princess.

"Snapped."

Qin Xiyue was stunned. This was the first time her mother had beaten her.

"You are such a bastard. Who is Xu Haoran? He is the general who just defeated the Huns and won a great victory."

"Do you know what you are doing? Now is the critical moment for your brother to become the heir. Do you have to harm your brother's future?"

The eldest princess's eyes were filled with anger, and she wished she could stuff her daughter back into her belly and reform her again.

"Now go back immediately and get rid of all those faces. You will be banned from going out for three months. If your brother cannot be the heir because of you, you will be a sinner."

The princess has a reputation as a vicious person, but she is actually very afraid of her mother.

"Mother, I don't know why the emperor knew about this and came to investigate. I'm sorry, mother, can you beg the emperor's uncle not to demote me to a commoner?"

The eldest princess glared at her with hatred: "You don't know? How could I have given birth to such a fool as you? You only know how to indulge in male lust and collect beautiful men."

"Xu Haoran's sister has become the queen, but you don't pay attention to it, fooling around all day long."

"What? You mean Xu Jinyi?!" Only then did Qin Xiyue know the reason.

The prince rolled his eyes, not wanting to look at this stupid sister again, so he raised his feet and left.

On the day of the emperor's wedding, he saw Xu Jinyi, who was as beautiful as a fairy from a distance. It would be no exaggeration to say that her appearance was astonishing.

No wonder Xu Youran said that if he used her to help him win over the ministers, he would definitely succeed.

But it was obvious that the piece was out of control.

But the prince thought of another more direct method.

So even though he knew that Xu Youran's current reputation was no longer suitable for him to be his crown prince, he still came to her door with gifts every day.

Xu Youran lay sideways on the beauty's couch, looking at the prince who came to visit her again, with a very shy expression on her face.

When he heard the prince's request, he showed a troubled expression.

"Your Majesty, it's not that Youran doesn't want to help. If it can help the Crown Prince reach that position, Youran can do anything."

"I just want my sister-in-law to listen to us and let her influence the emperor's thoughts. I'm afraid she won't be willing."

Xu Youran stared at the prince's expression, wondering what he would do after hearing this.

In fact, what she said was very euphemistic.

Not to mention Xu Jinyi would help, she couldn't wait to see them suffer even more.

If she were to know their thoughts, she would probably interfere with them and make the crown prince miss the throne.

But she was afraid that if she told the truth, the prince would think she was worthless and leave her.

She is not stupid, and she knows very well that her family background is not enough for the prince to promise her the position of the prince's concubine.

So if she doesn't even have any use value, I'm afraid the prince won't even pay attention to her.
