Quick Transmigration: My First Female Skill Takes Effect

Consort De held the imperial edict in her hand, her face showing utter vulnerability.

"How is that possible? Why would His Majesty bestow a marriage upon your cousin?" She paced back and forth, her face pale and ashen, like a multicolored soup.

Her niece from her maternal family is not bad.

She just can't be her son's legal wife right now.

The fourth prince arrived at Wanhua Palace in a daze, handed the imperial edict to his mother, and seemed to have lost his soul.

He leaned back in his chair, his face long and cold.

He exuded a dark aura.

In the candlelight.

Like a demon from hell.

Consort De was not afraid of ghosts. Her expression was anxious, as if the sky had fallen and the earth had collapsed. She grabbed the Fourth Prince's arm and asked, "What exactly happened? Speak up."

She wanted to slap someone.

A person who doesn't speak can drive a living person crazy.

The fourth prince snapped out of his daze, his dark eyes fixed on Consort De, like a black hole sucking people in. He then recounted his encounter with Wei Qi that day.

"Princess Chenzhao?"

"Um."

Consort De closed her eyes, pondering their way out of this predicament.

She couldn't help but complain, "Didn't I tell you not to mess with her? Why didn't you listen?"

Even if it means provoking the Crown Prince.

She was angry, and the fourth prince was even angrier.

His fist slammed on the table: "Be obedient, be obedient, haven't I been obedient enough?" He listened to her and went to find Zhu Mingyue.

Time and time again, they humbled themselves.

But Zhu Mingyue simply didn't appreciate it.

He also has dignity.

Consort De: "..."

Obedience can offend people; she had clearly instructed them not to coerce others in public or in front of others.

I also instructed him not to take advantage of Chenzhao.

She has a strong personality and won't let people have their way.

Thinking that the two were still one, Consort De took a deep breath: "Alright, let's let this matter rest."

She analyzed, "Once you marry according to the imperial decree, unless there is a girl with poor eyesight and a good family background who insists on becoming your concubine, you will be in trouble."

"Otherwise, you won't gain much support from your wife's family."

A wife of low social status but from a high family will generally not become your concubine, unless she is the crown prince.

Like Chen Zhao.

With the support of the emperor and empress, and the companions around him all from prominent families.

Furthermore, it was discovered that smallpox was curable.

The court officials supported her far more than the fourth prince.

I envy Consort De for facing reality.

The fourth prince was well aware of this principle, and he sincerely said, "Mother, there aren't many girls with poor eyesight, so this path won't work."

"So you want to live a peaceful life as a prince?"

"No." A different light flashed in the Fourth Prince's eyes as he looked at Consort De: "We can, kill her in one strike."

His eyes held a murderous intent and an unwavering confidence.

Prince?

Wouldn't it be better to just become emperor directly?

Consort De remained silent for a moment, then nodded.

Only by reaching the highest position can her family's past be cleared away, and only then can her family rise from being bowed down in Kyoto to standing up.

The next day.

The Crown Prince left the palace.

They met the other four brothers in front of Taiji Palace.

The eldest prince is the eldest son, and his mother is the head of the Nine Concubines, a figurehead in the palace.

As the eldest son, he was arrogant and conceited, while his maternal grandparents' family was not prominent, making him feel inferior and sensitive.

Upon seeing the Crown Prince, his smile carried a strange sarcasm: "Why is the Crown Prince leaving the palace today? Is he trying to familiarize himself with life outside the palace?"

The implication is that you know you'll be abolished sooner or later.

The Third Prince kindly tried to stop him: "Elder brother, be careful what you say. The Crown Prince's Palace is inside the Imperial Palace."

The fourth prince said coldly, "The crown prince is the ruler."

The Fifth Prince grinned, revealing his tiger teeth: "Your Highness, don't be angry. My elder brother's words may be rough, but they make sense." He seemed to imply that the Fifth Prince was the Crown Prince now, but would definitely not be in the future.

The crown prince didn't like the two people who spoke up for him, but when you're out in the world, you can't have someone by your side.

He thanked his two younger brothers for speaking, and also expressed his magnanimity to his eldest and fifth brothers.

Looking at his back.

At the same time, the four princes' faces darkened like a storm.

And then it was gone in an instant.

The eldest prince laughed heartily, the third prince laughed gently, the fourth prince had a calm expression, and the fifth prince laughed ostentatiously.

Everyone has two faces.

"Tell me, how dare he bully Aqi in front of me?"

Inside Changqiu Palace.

The emperor kept rambling on and on.

The Empress Dowager was irritable and restless.

It's been all morning, the whole morning has been spent talking about your dissatisfaction, and she's almost getting dissatisfied with it herself.

"Your Majesty, do as you please, but just give me a heads-up." The Empress Dowager was old and afraid of being frightened by rumors, whether true or false.

I want to know the plot in advance.

Emperor Yongwen sat nearby, and the mother and son spoke quietly with serious expressions.

Afterwards, Emperor Yongwen returned to Taiji Palace, where he met Deputy Commander Xiao at the entrance to report on matters.

outside the palace.

Restaurant.

King Cheng openly flattered the Crown Prince and despised Wei Qi.

"Your Highness, what can a princess raised in seclusion do? It's just that His Majesty is pinning the credit on her."

"I have seen such absurd things before."

He mentioned that when he was in power, the Empress Dowager was in charge of the government, and she was using people left behind by the previous emperor.

It is clearly the Wei family's empire.

The common people, however, were blinded by their own limited perspective, praising the Empress Dowager's excellent governance and even worshipping her statue in private, regarding her as a deity.

King Cheng gripped the chair armrests tightly with both hands, which he couldn't break, his eyes blazing like a mad bull, as he belittled the Empress Dowager, whom he considered utterly worthless.

The crown prince listened quietly, pricking up his ears.

His expression was calm.

A smile with the perfect curve graced his lips.

King Cheng felt a connection with him, and his words flowed out like a tractor.

Ping An lowered its gaze, its eyes falling from the brown floor to the prince's thumb, which was behind his back, and it was pinching the flesh of his palm hard.

My palm turned red.

Ping An bent over even more gracefully, listening intently to King Cheng's unending words.

Fortunately, there was a wise person among them.

Mr. Lin stopped King Cheng from reminiscing about the past, saying that he had accomplished nothing and that he had talked about the same thing over and over again without any new ideas.

He got tired of hearing it.

Timely advice gets to the point.

Although King Cheng was unwilling to stop, he did not want to blame Mr. Lin, who was also a talented man and his confidant.

He could only tell the Crown Prince about his flawless plan.

Three days later, the emperor's inner circle was purged.

This includes members of the imperial clan, such as Vice Commander Xiao, who have already been turned against the regime.

The crown prince was surprised to find that the incompetent Prince Cheng was quite adept at playing dirty tricks.

But clearing out the emperor's inner circle was a matter of life and death, so he asked one question after another, not letting any detail slip by.

Because King Cheng always put him first and took care of his feelings, his initial dislike gradually disappeared.

However, the favorability rating is rising.

After both parties reached an agreement, the Crown Prince then brought out his hidden manpower.

The two are added together.

Victory was just around the corner in three days.

"Your Highness, aren't you in a bit too hasty?" Ping An asked cautiously.

The prince leaned against the soft pillows: "No, this is the only thing I can do now."

He won, and became emperor.

He lost, and became a prisoner.

Regardless of the outcome, he had to do it.

"Peace, the smallpox outbreak has spread among the people, and Wei Qi's ancestral worship, coupled with the Emperor's favoritism."

"At that time, I was truly alone and helpless."

While he still has the ability to resist, let's take a gamble.

"Ping An, let's go to another place."

"Cheng'en Duke's Mansion."

A childlike smile appeared on the prince's lips.

The Emperor and Empress Dowager favored Wei Qi, but their clansmen followed in his footsteps to purge the court of corrupt officials.

I really want that day to come quickly so I can see their faces.
