The transmigrated wife is crazy and ruthless.

Chapter 307 Seizure

When Wanyi, Suxin, Yaohua, and Yuqin returned home, each of them looked aggrieved, with tears welling up in their eyes.

Their dance and talent show, which should have been a dazzling moment, were overshadowed by Prince Li Cunxu's inattentiveness.

Why doesn't he even look at me?

Wanyi sobbed as she spoke, her voice choked with emotion.

"Isn't my music beautiful enough?"

With red eyes, Su Xin murmured to herself.

"I danced with such dedication, how could he remain unmoved?"

Yaohua couldn't help but shed tears.

What was so special about that woman?

Yuqin said indignantly.

The fathers of the four women were all high-ranking officials in the court. Upon hearing their daughters' cries, they couldn't help but feel a surge of anger.

They all felt that this was not only an insult to their daughter, but also a contempt for them.

Wanyi's father, Minister of Rites Liu, was the first to step forward:

“This Prince Li Cunxu of Jin has gone too far! Our Lady Wanyi is so outstanding, yet he completely ignores her.”

Su Xin's father, Vice Minister Zhang of the Ministry of Revenue, was not to be outdone:

"My daughter, Suxin, is exceptionally talented in playing the piano. How can he be so indifferent?"

Yao Hua's father, Minister of War Zhao, frowned and said:

"How could he easily ignore Yaohua's dignified and elegant demeanor?"

Yuqin's father, Minister of Works Li, was even more furious:

"Yuqin was lively and cheerful, and was loved by everyone, but he didn't care at all."

The four ministers decided to jointly submit a memorial to Madam Cao, expressing their dissatisfaction and requesting that Madam Cao reconsider her choice of marriage.

They hoped that the King of Jin would give their daughter a fair chance, otherwise it would be detrimental to the stability of the State of Jin.

After receiving the memorials from the four ministers, Lady Cao frowned deeply.

She knew all too well that these ministers held a very important position in the court, and that mishandling them could trigger an even bigger political upheaval.

She immediately sent someone to summon Li Cunxu, intending to discuss the matter with him.

Inside the main hall, Madam Cao spoke solemnly:

“My child, do you know that the daughters of the four ministers are very dissatisfied with your choice of a queen? They have already submitted a joint petition expressing their strong dissatisfaction.”

Li Cunxu nodded:

"I have already heard that the fathers of the four girls are all important officials in the court, so their reaction is to be expected."

Madam Cao sighed:

“My son, your empire is not secure right now, and the situation in the court is complex and volatile. If you want to marry that Miss Qiu Ziyue, you must win the hearts and minds of all the ministers. Only in this way can your empire be secure.”

Li Cunxu was slightly taken aback, but then he understood his mother's good intentions:

"What Mother means is..."

Madam Cao nodded and said, "Yes, my child. If you truly like that girl, please bring her here and let her perform in front of all the ministers. If her talent is indeed outstanding, the ministers will naturally be convinced."

Li Cunxu pondered for a moment, then finally nodded:

“I understand, Mother. I will arrange this as soon as possible.”

After leaving the main hall, Li Cunxu was very troubled.

He originally just didn't want to choose a concubine and only wanted to delay the matter.

But the mother insisted on this, and now the ministers are starting to take it seriously.

He knew that while his mother's suggestion was reasonable, it also meant facing more pressure and challenges.

However, he was willing to do anything for the person in his heart.

As night fell, in a secluded courtyard outside the Prince Jin's residence, Qiu Ziyue lay quietly on the bed, with Qi Yuxuan taking meticulous care of her.

Under Qi Yuxuan's careful care, her injuries have gradually improved.

"Let's travel back in time tomorrow."

Qiu Ziyue said softly, a hint of determination in her eyes.

"Thank you for your hard work these past few days, Yuxuan."

Qi Yuxuan nodded: "Everything will be alright, as long as we work together."

That evening, Qiu Ziyue, Qi Yuxuan, Leng Feng, Qiu Langyu, and Zhao Wanqing sat together to discuss the specifics of their journey the next day.

Qiu Ziyue explained the time and place of the time travel in detail, and everyone nodded in agreement.

Is everyone ready?

Qiu Ziyue asked, her gaze sweeping over each person's face in turn.

Everything is ready.

Leng Feng said in a deep voice, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes.

"However, we should still be careful."

Qiu Langyu nodded: "That's right, there's no need to tell Li Cunxu. We need to make sure everything goes smoothly."

Zhao Wanqing gently stroked the jade pendant in her hand: "I hope everything will be alright this time."

Just after the group finished their discussion and returned to their rooms to rest, three squads of soldiers quietly approached Leng Feng, Qiu Langyu, and Zhao Wanqing's room under the cover of night.

In the dead of night, all was quiet.

Suddenly, a soft footstep broke the silence.

Suddenly, a faint, intoxicating fragrance filled the air.

Leng Feng frowned, realizing something was wrong, but before he could react, he felt a wave of dizziness wash over him.

Qiu Langyu was also infected in his own room. He struggled to stay conscious and tried to shout, but found that he could no longer make a sound.

At the same time, Zhao Wanqing also fell into a coma.

The soldiers acted swiftly, securing the three men tightly with steel ropes before carrying them away.

Qi Yuxuan was the first to notice something was wrong. He stood up abruptly, but it was too late.

Several soldiers rushed into the house and subdued him with a sedative.

Watching her companion being taken away, Qiu Ziyue was filled with anxiety and helplessness.

She was already injured and caught off guard, and now she was drugged.

She tried to struggle, but her body was too weak, and she could only watch helplessly as it all happened.

In the end, Qiu Ziyue also fainted.

Li Cunxu stood on a high point in the palace, overlooking the Jin Kingdom under the night sky.

He was torn between wanting more and losing more; he couldn't forget Qiu Ziyue, but he was also worried that her departure would cause even bigger trouble.

"We must keep her here."

Li Cunxu muttered to himself, "I can't let her leave like this."

He ordered his men to detain Leng Feng, Qiu Langyu, and Zhao Wanqing to prevent them from assisting Qiu Ziyue in her time travel.

At the same time, he also sent people to keep a close watch on Qi Yuxuan to ensure that they could not escape again.

Li Cunxu knew that Qiu Ziyue was exceptionally talented, and if she returned to her original world, his heart would be hollowed out.

In order to stabilize the political situation, he decided to take a tougher approach.

He knew that Qiu Ziyue was loyal and righteous, and easily softened, so he wanted to exploit her weakness and use her as leverage.

When Qiu Ziyue woke up again, she found herself in an unfamiliar room.

All around was silent, with only the faint candlelight illuminating the walls.

She struggled to recall what had happened the previous night and realized that she and her companions had been detained.

"Leng Feng, Qiu Langyu, Zhao Wanqing..."

Qiu Ziyue called softly, her heart filled with worry.

Where are you?

She took a deep breath and calmed down to think of a solution.

We must find a way to escape.

Qiu Ziyue secretly vowed,

"We must not let Li Cunxu's conspiracy succeed."

Just then, the door slowly opened, and Li Cunxu walked in.

"Where are they? Why did you do this, you despicable person?"

Qiu Ziyue asked in a refined manner.
