It’s impossible for Wenn Qiuyu to say these thoughts to anyone; saying them would be like defying conventions and wouldn’t be liked by others.

"Indeed, the Crown Prince is busy with important matters all day, and the Crown Princess Consort must manage the Eastern Palace well to avoid chaos." The maid thought she understood and said no more.

"Listen, if the concubine doesn’t cause trouble, you should all treat her with respect. If I find out anyone uses my influence to trouble the concubine, you’ll be in trouble."

"Yes, Crown Princess Consort."

With Wenn Qiuyu’s warning, Qiann Yan felt quite comfortable moving into the Eastern Palace; the people in the Eastern Palace were well-trained, better than those in the Prince Ling Mansion.

This Crown Princess Consort is a real talent.

Qiann Yan thought silently, but unfortunately, the other party is the Crown Princess Consort, destined not to be by her side.

With Ashui cooking and the Wu Family Brothers guarding the house, if Wenn Qiuyu could help her manage it, it would be perfect.

"There’s really a wealth of talent in this small world."

System 666 knew Qiann Yan was talking to him and quickly replied: [That’s for sure; every small world is an independent world.]

"Too bad about Wenn Qiuyu, who can’t be used by me."

The entire System 666 was a bit chaotic; is the host’s old habit acting up again?

A talent hoarding obsession?

[Host, you’re not planning to be emperor in this world, right?]

"No, who in their right mind likes being emperor? After so many years of being emperor, I’m actually tired of it," Qiann Yan couldn’t help but say, "In Great Rong, I had no choice but to sit on that throne; if I didn’t, I would be constrained by others."

Precisely because she wasn’t the emperor here, she regretted not being able to recruit Wenn Qiuyu to her side.

With only Jing Yunzhou’s ability, there was no way he could manage the Eastern Palace so well; it was thanks to having such a capable Crown Princess Consort like Wenn Qiuyu.

Shortly after Qiann Yan entered the courtyard, someone brought pastries and fruits. She ate some and planned to take a short nap.

At this time, indeed, the winds were rising outside the palace.

Initially, the people gossiped that Prince Ling had contracted smallpox.

Soon, a news item emerged about General Lin being framed by spies from a foreign country, followed by the events at Prince Ling Mansion being revealed.

Not only that, countless kites were flying in the sky over the capital, with letters continuously falling from them, scattering all over the streets.

The matters concerning General Lin’s family, Prince Ling, and Consort Qin were publicized in full detail.

Now, several important pieces of information echoed in the minds of the people:

General Lin did not commit treason; he was framed by someone, and that someone was Consort Qin, who had supposedly passed away.

Consort Qin was a spy planted by Chen Country, and she didn’t pass away from illness but was secretly executed by the emperor after he discovered her identity.

Prince Ling is Consort Qin’s child, meaning he has half of Chen Country’s blood; he knew from the start that General Lin was being framed and even participated in it.

Prince Ling did not contract smallpox; it was Crown Prince who found evidence of treason in his room and had him detained.

In the face of overwhelming evidence, the people who once deeply respected General Lin and later felt disappointed were all in an uproar.

In less than an hour, countless people gathered outside the palace gates, claiming to seek justice for General Lin.

Among these people were many disabled individuals, who turned out to be old soldiers who had once followed General Lin into battle. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

They had bloodshot eyes and faces full of indignation, demanding an explanation from the emperor. Otherwise, they threatened to shed blood at the palace gates by noon today.

Ashui stood in the crowd watching silently.

To accomplish all this quickly, it also relied on those who always believed in their father.
