Reborn to marry the regent and seize the throne as queen

When Jiang Qingwu heard the shout, he suddenly realized something.

There was a great riot in the city last night, and I had fled the house again. If Wanyue and Luo Ming came back, I would be caught again.

Jiang Qingwu was thinking about it, and just when he was at a loss, Jiang Ruhai shouted from inside the room, "Get in here.

Jiang Qingwu trembled and hurried into the house.

My parents sat on the upper seats, one on each side, and my eldest brother sat on the side. On both sides were slaves and maids, just like they were interrogating a criminal.

"Kneel down!" Jiang Ruhai shouted angrily, and Jiang Qingwu was so scared that he knelt down with a thump.

Before she could say anything, Wanyue and Luo Ming were brought up and knelt behind her.

Seeing this, Jiang Qingwu slowly reached out and pinched his ears, saying pitifully and aggrievedly, "Daddy, you scared me!"

Jiang Ruhai sneered, slammed the table and shouted, "Scare you? You scared me, okay."

"They both came back in their night clothes... Tell me the truth, do you have anything to do with the fire in the city last night?"

Jiang Qingwu heard the voice and raised his head without thinking and said firmly, "No, it doesn't matter, absolutely not, I swear."

"Okay, okay, since you said it has nothing to do with you, where did you go last night?" Jiang Ruhai was still furious and kept asking questions.

Jiang Qingwu was suddenly speechless and closed his mouth, at a loss for a moment.

If he didn't set the fire, what did he do? Did he go to see Yan Xiuchen? !

"Will you tell me or not? If you don't, I will punish you according to my family rules..." Jiang Ruhai slammed the table and stood up, raising his hand to hit her.

Jiang Qingwu was so scared that he pinched his ears and said, "Tell me, tell me... I... I went to see someone."

As soon as Jiang Qingwu finished speaking, Jiang Ruhai's face turned pale. He then waved his hand and immediately dismissed the servants.

Before Jiang Qingwu could figure out what was going on, Jiang Ruhai rushed towards her with a look of urgency.

"How dare you! His Majesty has already granted the marriage, how can you secretly go to see the Third Prince?"

"Yes, you had a secret meeting with the third prince. It would be disastrous if the regent found out." Jiang Qingbai also came over and scolded her.

Jiang Qingwu knelt on the ground, looked up at his father and elder brother, and before he could come to his senses, his mother ran over again.

"Don't be like this. Ah Wu and the Third Prince have been together for so many years. It's hard for them to..."

"Wait a minute!" Jiang Qingwu raised his hand to interrupt the three people and sighed secretly.

"What are you talking about? The person I went to see last night was Yan Xiuchen, not Yan Lin."

The three people were stunned for a moment, then came to their senses.

Jiang Qingbai breathed a sigh of relief and helped Su Su sit down. Jiang Ruhai suddenly realized, "You can't see anyone."

"You are an unmarried girl. What are you doing going to the Regent's Palace in the middle of the night? And you didn't come back all night."

Jiang Qingwu stammered, "I...I'll ask him for mercy. We can't let his soldiers surround our mansion."

Jiang Qingwu smiled at Jiang Ruhai and said, "I really only met Yan Xiuchen, but don't worry, father. I slept in the guest room."

"He was talking to the prefect of the capital city about the fire yesterday. I wonder when the conversation ended."

"Besides, we have already been granted marriage, and no one else knows about this. Just think of it as staying overnight. It's nothing."

"We are all military commanders, there are not so many rules."

Jiang Qingwu made a serious defense, but Jiang Ruhai had a terrible headache and kept turning his head around with his hands on his hands.

"You...you were forced to agree to the marriage, right? Why are you..."

"I've already said it before. I volunteered. He saved my life on the battlefield. He wants to marry me, and I want to marry him. It's perfect."

Jiang Qingbai looked at Jiang Qingwu in confusion when he heard the voice, "Awu, when did you become so carefree? Didn't you insist on marrying the Third Prince?"

"I was blind before, and I just regained my sight."

Jiang Qingbai chuckled, stood up and came closer, "Think carefully, the regent has injured his leg, and people say it won't heal. Are you sure you want to marry a cripple?"

"I will marry even if I am disabled."

Mother Su Su listened with a panicked look on her face and walked over a few steps, "Awu, are you confused?"

"The Regent is nearly ten years older than you, and he is also the uncle of the Third Prince..."

"Nine years older, not ten years older."

Jiang Qingwu defended himself with his head held high, and choked back the words of the three people one by one.

The three of them looked down at Jiang Qingwu, none of them able to speak. At this moment, hurried shouts were heard from outside.

"Master, madam, someone is coming from the palace."

When Jiang Ruhai heard the voice and stepped out to greet them, an older and familiar-looking eunuch walked in.

"Marquis Shunqing is polite."

"Eunuch Zhao is polite."

"The Queen Mother will hold a banquet at Fenghe Palace tomorrow. We are following the Queen Mother's order to summon the Marquis Shunqing and his wife, and Miss Jiang to the palace tomorrow."

Jiang Ruhai was stunned for a moment, and he and Su Su hurriedly returned the greeting, "Yes, I obey your order. Thank you for your help, eunuch."

Jiang Qingwu watched his parents see someone off, and moved closer to Jiang Qingbai, "The Queen Mother is hosting a banquet, what are you asking us to do?"

"The Prince Regent has been raised by the Queen Mother since he was young, so it should be for marriage."

"But the Queen Mother is very strict. Many noble ladies who wanted to become the Regent Princess have failed to get through to the Queen Mother."

Jiang Qingwu's heart skipped a beat and his face turned pale.

There are so many noble ladies that she doesn't like, so how could she be attracted to me, a girl who was abandoned and just divorced?

In her previous life, the Queen Mother disliked Yan Lin, and therefore disliked her too. She met the Queen Mother only a few times, and was always left out.

Now, even if she likes Yan Xiuchen, she probably won't look down on an abandoned woman like her being the princess.

One day and one night, from inside the house to outside, from the courtyard to the garden.

Until entering the palace the next day, Jiang Qingwu was still thinking about how to get past the Queen Mother.

Outside the West Palace gate, as soon as the carriage of Shunqing Marquis stopped, Shen Wanrong's voice was heard outside the door.

"Shen family Wanrong, meet Uncle Jiang and Aunt Jiang."

Jiang Qingwu was startled and his thoughts suddenly became clear.

Jiang Ruhai and Su Su looked at each other, suppressed their unhappiness, and got out of the car.

"So it's my niece, is there anything wrong?"

Shen Wanrong was able to pretend nothing had happened and didn't care how ugly Jiang Ruhai and his wife's faces were.

"Oh, I wonder if my sister is here. I want to go with her and have a chat."

Su Su's face darkened and she was about to refuse, but Jiang Qingwu spoke first.

"Mother, you and father go first. I will go with Shen's sister."

"Awu..." Su Su wanted to say something, but was stopped by Jiang Ruhai, "Let's go first, Awu will follow."

Seeing Jiang Ruhai and Su Su walking away, Jiang Qingwu glanced at Shen Wanrong.

She thought that wearing this green silk dress inlaid with cloud-like gauze and densely woven with gold threads today was already eye-catching enough.

But it is brighter than Shen Wanrong's pink dress.

The two looked at each other, entered the palace gate tacitly, and walked side by side on the long street with red walls.

"Sister, the cloud-lined gauze you are wearing today is not worn by anyone except the Imperial Concubine and the Queen Mother. I am really envious."

"Thanks to you, otherwise I wouldn't have gotten such a good thing."

Shen Wanrong laughed contemptuously and said calmly, "His Majesty has granted the marriage. Yan Lin and I will get married as soon as possible."

"Sister, you should know that Yan Lin...is going to be the emperor."

"If my sister marries the regent, I'm afraid that no matter how prominent she is, she will always be a minister."

"There is a saying that goes, if the ruler wants his subjects to die, the subjects have to die."
