After transmigrating into the book, the prime minister always wants to farm with me.

Chapter 439 Things May Not End Well
Qi Yunran spoke calmly and respectfully: "Princess Mingzhu, this is the inner palace, managed by Her Majesty the Empress. What right do you have to overstep your bounds and dispose of me, a mere subject, by overstepping Her Majesty the Empress?"

Before Lou Mingzhu could speak, she continued, "Besides, I don't think I've done anything wrong, so what excuse did Princess Mingzhu use to punish me?"

"You... I will punish you for the crime of disrespecting the royal family!"

"Shut up, that's enough. If Mingzhu has nothing else, you can leave now!"

"Empress sister-in-law..." Lou Mingzhu still wanted to use the Empress to punish Qi Yunran.

How could the Empress not see it?

She summoned the person to the palace, determined to send them back safely.

Otherwise, given the Prime Minister's temperament, things might not end well.

She only wanted to call Lady Xian into the palace to give her a few words of advice, to prevent the Crown Prince from getting too close to them, not to offend the powerful Prime Minister.

Moreover, the Crown Prince will need the Prime Minister's help to ascend the throne in the future.

The emperor has now recovered, but he has been favoring several young and beautiful palace maids in the harem.

His intention was clearly to have a son so that the crown prince could be deposed.

The Prime Minister would certainly not stand idly by and watch the Crown Prince be deposed, after all, no deposed Crown Prince has ever had a good ending.

She was old and her beauty had faded, and the emperor had not visited her palace for a long time. When he did come, he would only stay for a short while before leaving.

She had no chance of conceiving a prince again, and even if she did, she wouldn't know if it would be a princess or a prince. It would be better to support Crown Prince Jingxuan to ascend the throne.

After all, a person's energy is limited. She has spent five years of her energy on the Crown Prince and absolutely does not want to give up halfway.

The Emperor is still young, and the Crown Prince has grown up. By the time the Emperor has another son and raises him, Crown Prince Jingxuan will already be an adult. At that time, she can join forces with the Prime Minister to have the Emperor suddenly die and install the Crown Prince on the throne.

She then pinned all the blame for the plot to murder the emperor on the prime minister. With irrefutable evidence, the prime minister was certain to die.

By then, the world will be completely under the control of the Wei clan.

Although many thoughts were on her mind, the contemplation only lasted a moment. She immediately interrupted Lou Mingzhu, saying, "Mingzhu, if there's nothing else, you may leave now! I have something to say to Lady Xian."

Lou Mingzhu lowered her head, looking as if she were hurt: "Empress sister-in-law, I was just a little unhappy because I heard some rumors in the palace. I came to you to talk about my feelings!"

The Empress, however, had no intention of playing along: "Mingzhu, you are a princess of noble birth. Anyone who dares to gossip can be killed! If you still can't let it go, how about I choose a husband for you one day to shut those people up?"

Lou Mingzhu felt a surge of rage, her fists clenched tightly inside her sleeves.

"No need to trouble Your Majesty the Empress. Since Your Majesty does not welcome me here, I will return now."

After saying that, he gave Qi Yunran a cold look, turned around and strode away!

The Empress sighed, feigning concern: "Alas! Mingzhu is just that impatient. She's been spoiled by the Emperor and the Empress Dowager. Please, Lady Xian, don't hold a grudge against her!"

"Of course, I just thought she was being childish and throwing a tantrum."

"It's good that you think this way, Madam. However, if the Crown Prince skips his classes to go to the Prime Minister's residence in the future, please help persuade him. After all, his studies are the most important thing. The Emperor is already somewhat dissatisfied with his attitude. Every step we, mother and son, take in this harem is extremely difficult! Please ask him not to act on emotion!"

"Of course, if His Highness the Crown Prince does this again next time, I will certainly give him a good talking-to!"
