Quick Transmigration: The Supporting Character Just Wants to Die a Natural Death

Yao Feiran dismissed everyone: "Wan'er, you can't like Young Master Shen."

Why?

"Because he has homosexual tendencies."

Xie Wan's face flushed red, and then she said suspiciously, "Mother, even if you don't like Young Master Shen, you shouldn't slander him like this."

"Do you think your mother is the kind of person who would slander others at will? If he is a good person with a good status, why doesn't your mother grant your wish?"

Xie Wan was taken aback, then fell into deep thought.

Yao Feiran continued, "Look at the men in this world, how many can remain faithful to one woman until the end? Even if there are, they are extremely rare. Moreover, for someone of his status, the more clean he is, the more guilty he seems."

"And he's the bottom one."

"What do you mean?"

Yao Feiran whispered an explanation in Xie Wan's ear, and in the blink of an eye, Xie Wan's face turned bright red, followed by a look of disgust.

"This is ridiculous! Disgusting!"

Xie Wan had only met Shen Yanci once, and such feelings could not withstand provocation. Besides, what Yao Feiran said was true.

"Mother, it seems that the person who pushed me also had ill intentions. I thought it was an accident before, but it seems I was overthinking it."

"Alright, the selection of the consort will definitely be approved by you, so let's drop this matter. Be careful in the future, and make sure the palace servants by your side never leave your side."

After Xie Wan left, Yao Feiran's face turned cold. No one in the capital knew that Shen Yanci was gay. She only found out when she received the original owner's storyline. In the original storyline, Shen Yanci got married two years later. A year later, his wife sued the Shen family for improper conduct, allowing Shen Yanci to keep male prostitutes and even have servants perform sexual acts on his behalf. Perhaps because it was too humiliating, his wife eventually committed suicide by hitting her head against a pillar.

So who exactly wants to harm Xie Wan? Xie Wan is a princess, she can't possibly be a nuisance to anyone. The only possibility is that it's aimed at me.

If Yao Feiran didn't know about Shen Yanci, she would most likely think it was a good marriage. In this dynasty, there was no rule that a prince consort was not allowed to hold office, so Xie Wan marrying into the family would not be considered unfair to the Shen family.

"Chuntao, investigate carefully to find out who pushed Xie Wan in the chaos, and focus on which palace staff were nearby."

"Yes."

Over the years, few people have tried to harm her. Although she is the empress, she has no children and is unwilling to take in other people's children. It was Xie Che who took the initiative to place the children under her wing after their birth mothers passed away.

Not to mention a princess who was about to be married off anyway. What good would it do to ruin a princess's life?

After pondering for a moment, Yao Feiran decided to deal with Shen Yanci first. She told Wu Anhou's rival that Shen Yanci was gay and kept a man in his house outside.

A few days later, at night, a fire broke out in an inconspicuous house in the capital. The heir of the Marquis of Wu'an and a tall man ran out naked, with marks on their bodies. In full view of everyone, the news that the heir of the Marquis of Wu'an was gay spread throughout the streets and alleys in an instant.

Shen Yanci's reputation instantly reversed, and he became someone that the capital city almost avoided.

"I had originally considered making him Wan'er's consort, but I was almost deceived. How despicable!"

Xie Che's face was full of anger, and he almost couldn't catch his breath.

"It's alright. Wan'er is still young. I would like to keep her for a few more years. It is said that the emperor's daughter has no trouble getting married. We should consider this carefully."

Xie Che's tightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed: "Indeed, there's no rush. Next time, if a suitable candidate emerges, we must investigate thoroughly. I will not be dining with the Empress today."

After Xie Che finished speaking, he hurriedly went to Zhao Yunshu's place.

Chun Tao said indignantly, "Today is the fifteenth, and His Majesty is unwilling to stay with the Empress. His Majesty was not like this before. What kind of bewitching potion did Consort Chun give His Majesty?"

Yao Feiran narrowed her eyes slightly. It was normal for Xie Che to be attracted to Zhao Yunshu. This situation was even more pronounced in the original plot. However, Xie Che did not show favoritism towards his offspring. Now Xie Che had many sons, and they were all competing fiercely. There were many outstanding individuals, and many of them had already started their internships in the Six Departments when they were of legal age.

Therefore, she felt that Zhao Yunshu's child had no chance of winning in terms of either quality or age. However, the original owner of this body died young. If Xie Che later became attached to this child and insisted on making this youngest son the crown prince, Zhao Yunshu would not want to be inferior to others. If her son became the crown prince, the first person she would have to deal with would be Yao Feiran.

She stared at the food on the table, lost in thought.

It seems we need to speed things up.

Xie Che's sons have all grown up, and she has four princes under her wing. However, Xie Che did not mention that they were registered under her name, nor did she mention it. The mothers of these four princes are still low-ranking concubines who died young and are not the legitimate sons of the Empress.

Yao Feiran knew that Xie Che was being wary of her.

However, it was right for him to be wary of himself; she had wanted to kill him for a long time.

After all, with the emperor dead, she, the empress, could finally rest easy.

In the original story, Xie Wan was willful and always targeted Zhao Yunshu. She still liked her father, the emperor, but Xie Che still forced her to marry into a barbaric land, where she was tortured to death. His fatherly love was worthless in front of Zhao Yunshu, and so was she, the empress.

"Take this meal away."

The palace servants assumed the Empress was angry because His Majesty had left, so they quickly cleared the dishes off the table.

At this moment, Su Lun rushed over: "Your Highness, the people who went to the river that day included the Third Prince, the Fourth Princess... and Chun Consort's maid Qiu Yan was also here."

"What is Qiu Yan, who serves Consort Chun, doing here?"

"It is said that Qiu Yan was not on duty that day, so she came over to take a look when she saw the commotion here."

Yao Feiran gave a meaningful smile but did not say anything.

"I understand. You may all leave."

She knew who it was; it was most likely Zhao Yunshu. Zhao Yunshu was vindictive and knew that Yao Feiran was behind the grand investiture of the harem, so she wanted to teach her a lesson using this method.

Yao Feiran only has this one daughter. If she were to die by hitting a pillar like Shen Yanci's wife in the original story, she believes that Yao Feiran would suffer an unbearable blow and might not even have the courage to live anymore.

This is a lesson Zhao Yunshu learned from herself.

She was angered by the matter of being made a concubine.

What puzzled Yao Feiran was how she knew about this. As the illegitimate daughter of a fifth-rank official, how could she possibly know the secrets of the Marquis of Wu'an's family? Could she be some kind of reborn person?

"Can you predict Zhao Yunshu's fate?"

The Reversal of Fate Beads said, "Even an ordinary person's complete life trajectory requires a lot of energy, let alone someone with great fortune. You don't know the cost of money until you're in charge of your own household."

"All right."

Yao Feiran also knew that it was just a matter of assumption. The abacus for predicting the death calamity of a prince was usually within a very short period of time. Someone would die a violent death during this period, so it was possible to take precautions in advance. Even so, it consumed a lot of energy. Therefore, Yao Feiran usually stopped predicting the death calamity of a prince when he turned ten.

However, it's fortunate that the original owner was a vicious woman, otherwise she wouldn't have known that the original owner had so many harmful drugs.

The original owner of this body almost slaughtered her way through the entire harem before being discovered. The main reason was that her birth mother had given her several prescriptions, which the imperial physicians generally couldn't diagnose unless they were highly skilled.

However, emperors usually test poisons, so Yao Feiran diluted the dosage considerably. So far, the Reversal of Fate Beads says that Xie Che's luck has been reduced by more than half, and that luck is probably his lifespan.
