Quick Transmigration: My First Female Skill Takes Effect

The third prince and the fourth prince clashed.

They were thinking of dividing the throne among the victors.

The light rain that had been falling quickly in the air gradually subsided, and fewer and fewer raindrops were hitting people.

Wei Qi was the first to notice that she stretched out a pair of young hands, and raindrops fell on them. When she pulled them back, there were exactly nine raindrops.

"Father, Mother, the rain is about to stop."

When Empress Shen came out of the palace, she saw a familiar face among the rebels. Her heart was filled with rage, and she wanted to ask her own father what he was good for.

It's one thing for the Wei family to be involved in a rebellion.

They are relatives.

But the Shen family was different. Not only that, they became related to the empress because she was an imperial relative.

But then her child turned against her.

My family is using the honors I earned to trip up my children.

"Yes, the rain is about to stop." Empress Shen looked at Emperor Yongwen beside her and made a rare request: "Your Majesty, I would like to leave the palace after this matter is settled."

"To the Duke of Cheng'en's residence?"

"Um."

Emperor Yongwen smiled and said, "Go ahead."

He also saw the heir of the Shen family in the rebel ranks.

Luckily, he's still alive.

"They've arrived." Emperor Yongwen heard a familiar voice, looked up, and saw Commander Zhu leading his men back with torches and lanterns.

"Your Majesty, I have come to report that the rebels in the capital have been dealt with."

Commander Zhu led his men to surround all the troops of the Third Prince and the Fourth Prince.

Emperor Yongwen stepped forward: "Very good, you have done a great service." He waved to the Imperial Guards: "Seize the traitors and bring them to the Court of Judicial Review for interrogation."

The Imperial Guards clasped their hands in agreement.

The third and fourth princes couldn't even utter words of begging for mercy; their mouths had been gagged.

They were dragged down.

"Wen Zhong, send someone to invite the prime ministers, the six ministers, the governor of the capital, and the censor-in-chief to the palace."

Wen Zhong: "Yes, Your Majesty."

"Zhu Zhan, close the city gates, have patrols in the capital to protect the palace. You make the arrangements."

Zhu Zhan: "Your subject obeys."

Emperor Yongwen then looked at his wife and daughter: "Empress, go to the Empress Dowager's palace and check on her for me. Aqi, go find your aunt and tell her."

"The rebellion has been quelled."

The palace, which was in chaos due to the rebellion, gradually returned to order as orders were issued.

Kunning Palace.

Princess Xihe sat at the head of the table, holding a long sword. Behind her stood six female guards skilled in martial arts, while in front of her were the concubines of the palace.

Some were sitting, some were standing, and some were tied up.

The birth mothers of the third prince, Consort Shu, and the fourth prince, Consort De, were tied to pillars.

Everyone is waiting for the final result.

A knock came at the door.

Xihe stood up, and everyone else stood up as well. She asked, "Who is it?"

Consort De and Consort Shu looked towards the door with bright eyes.

They all sincerely hoped it was their son's man.

Wei Qi called out into the room, "It's me, Aunt. I've come on Father's orders."

The door was opened from the inside.

"Is Your Majesty alright?" Xihe asked Emperor Yongwen immediately. Victory has its end, and she was afraid that something might have happened to her brother.

As Wei Qi removed his raincoat, he replied, "It's alright, we're all fine. Mother has gone to see Grandmother."

Before Xihe could speak, the rest of the people in the hall burst into tears of joy.

"Great, great! I'll go out and make offerings to Buddha right away."

"I am making offerings to the Bodhisattva."

"Finally safe! Those traitors will die a horrible death!" some cursed.

Why not just live a good life instead of rebelling?

Pooh!

The Imperial Concubine breathed a sigh of relief. Of course, she also wanted the Fifth Prince to become the Crown Prince and then the Emperor, but the current Emperor had gone completely mad.

Yes, the imperial concubine believed that the emperor had been going mad for the past ten years.

Moreover, Empress Shen was also somewhat ill.

She was too afraid to go against the couple, fearing she would lose her life.

Moreover, while her son's throne was important, her life was also precious.

She chickened out for a moment, never expecting that she could still protect her family's safety. Her gaze lingered on her two former adversaries.

Instead of joining in the great celebration, Consort Gui and Consort Xian went to the open space next to where Consort De and Consort Shu were tied up.

"We've known each other for a while now, so I've come to see you one last time." Her words were still harsh.

Compared to others who avoided her, she actually seemed quite humane.

Consort Xian looked at them and comforted them, saying, "I often hear people say that the dead are meant to enjoy happiness." She was trying to comfort them.

Consort Shu and Consort De: "..."

What a special comfort.

If death is a way to enjoy life, why do so many people want to live?

The Imperial Concubine laughed heartily, covering her head: "Consort Xian, you're quite good at comforting people." She wouldn't even say something like "death brings happiness" when she was cursing someone.

Consort De laughed in the same way.

Her charming eyes held a joy devoid of any ulterior motive; her gaze was entirely clear.

Thank you.

In this situation, only they dare to say a few words.

Seeing this, Consort Shu smiled gently and said, "Sister Consort De speaks so politely, I cannot be inferior to her."

"Thank you," she said, adding two more words.

He then asked, "I've heard that you have to spend money after you die. Could you burn some paper money for me?"

The Imperial Concubine and the Virtuous Concubine said in unison, "No."

They burned paper money for those who plotted rebellion; they hadn't lived enough yet.

Consort Shu rolled her eyes: "Look at our friendship, which is thinner than paper. You wouldn't even lie to me."

The imperial concubine replied confidently, "You have committed treason, which, by all accounts, is punishable by the extermination of your entire clan. I dare not get involved."

"Sending you off is already an act of kindness out of consideration for our long-standing friendship."

Wei Qi arrived with his entourage and stood aside, patiently waiting for them to finish speaking.

She ordered the guards to take the man away, and then followed them off.

Taiji Palace.

Wei Qi sat beside Emperor Yongwen as usual.

However, the ministers below looked at her with incredibly complex expressions.

Before she arrived, Emperor Yongwen was discussing how to clean up the mess after the rebellion. The first issue was the crime: how to deal with the rebels?

Some people think it should be emphasized, while others think it should be lenient.

After learning of the Crown Prince's rebellion, Prime Minister Zheng was devastated and was the first to faint.

But the imperial physician was skilled; he woke up, walked in from the side hall, and saw Wei Qi beside the emperor.

His voice was hoarse as he spoke: "Princess Chenzhao, what do you think should be done about this rebellion?"

All eyes in the hall darted back and forth between him and Wei Qi.

Wei Qi's gaze turned serious. She knew that this was a subject testing her worth.

It cannot be too heavy, otherwise it will seem heartless and ungrateful; nor can it be too light, otherwise the rules will become ruins.

Emperor Yongwen nodded to her, smiled reassuringly, and his eyes seemed to say, "Speak boldly, I am behind you."

You will always be the only crown prince!

Wei Qi blinked.

He coughed lightly and asked the officials before him, "Where is the Minister of Justice?"

The existence of the law serves as a line of defense.

It just fluctuates up and down.
