Reborn to marry the regent and seize the throne as queen

Yan Xiuchen looked at the sharp sword pointed at him and couldn't help but look at the other people in the room.

Seeing this, the queen frowned slightly and shouted to the people behind her, "Get out."

Seeing that everyone had left, Yan Xiuchen finally breathed a sigh of relief and silently took off his mask.

"Your Highness?"

"Queen, please call the imperial physician first..."

The queen was stunned for a moment, quickly put away her sword, turned around and shouted outside, "Call the imperial physician over."

"It is not appropriate for me to stay here in this attire, and..." Before Yan Xiuchen could finish his words, the Queen turned back.

"She has already told me everything. You should be seriously injured now and in the palace."

Yan Xiuchen nodded slightly, turned his head to look at Jiang Qingwu on the bed, walked towards the queen and said, "So, I will go back first, and leave her to the queen."

"Okay, I know."

"It's just that how should we deal with the fire today?"

"Nothing, there should be no disturbance. I know who set the fire."

Having said that, Yan Xiuchen put on his mask, glanced at Jiang Qingwu, turned around and hurried out of the room.

Before the imperial doctors and palace maids rushed in, she jumped onto the roof.

The secret chamber caught fire, Jiang Qingwu was injured, and Yan Xiuchen was seriously injured and difficult to deal with. Yan Lin was the first to bear the brunt of everything.

Early the next morning, Jiang Qingwu and the Queen were called to Shangyang Palace by Yan Lin to investigate the fire.

The emperor remained the same as before, yawning and looking clueless.

It’s just that it was Yan Xiuchen who was in the palace before, but now it has been replaced by Yan Lin.

"What are you doing in the secret room?" Yan Lin acted like a prince, as if he wanted to make trouble for Jiang Qingwu through this matter.

"I, your Highness, have ordered you to go to the secret chamber to look up the prescriptions used when he was seriously ill as a child."

"One of the herbs happens to be able to heal your highness's current injury."

Yan Lin frowned slightly and chuckled, obviously not believing it. But just as he was about to say something, the emperor spoke with a nervous look on his face.

"How is my brother's injury? Have you found a prescription?"

"Your Majesty, rest assured. I have found it and sent my maid back to the palace with the prescription early this morning."

"Although your Highness is seriously injured, he will be able to recover in no more than ten days."

Jiang Qingwu said, looking up at Yan Lin, bowing his head slightly and said, "Does Your Highness have anything else to ask?"

"You...do you know how the fire started?"

"I don't know. I think someone was persecuting us. The gates were closed and the guards were killed. If I hadn't carried the fire signal with me, I'm afraid the Queen would not have been able to rescue us in time."

"Persecution? Who would persecute you? In my opinion, it must be you..."

Before Yan Lin finished speaking, Jiang Qingwu interrupted, "Of course, there are not many people who persecute me, but there are probably many who persecute Your Highness."

"Your Highness is in a high position, so naturally he has many enemies. Now that Your Highness is seriously injured, there are probably many people who don't want me to find the prescription."

"However, only a handful of people know that His Highness is seriously injured."

"Prince, you saw with your own eyes that His Highness was seriously injured in the palace yesterday."

Yan Lin's face suddenly darkened, and he stepped forward quickly, "Nonsense, are you trying to say that I persecuted Uncle Wang?"

"I dare not, I did not say so."

Jiang Qingwu bowed to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, I was in danger yesterday. Thanks to the Queen for saving me in time."

"Your Majesty, please reward us according to our merits."

"In terms of merit? This matter has not been thoroughly investigated yet. Who knows if it was directed and acted by the Queen herself?"

Yan Lin said, turning to the emperor and said, "Father, I will investigate this matter thoroughly."

The emperor looked at this and that, but in the end he said nothing and just waved at a few people.

When Jiang Qingwu and the Queen left Shangyang Palace, Yan Lin was still talking to the Emperor about something.

The queen looked at the palace behind her and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "Is this trick of yours... going to work?"

"Don't worry, when he sees me pleading for you, he will do it in advance even if he doesn't intend to do anything to you."

"As long as he takes action, the Queen and the Second Prince will retreat and advance. Your Highness and I will first ensure your safety."

"When the time has passed, I will take you to the throne of Queen."

"I believe you. If I find out that you lied to me, you know, a woman who has fought in a war is not easy to mess with."

The queen said this, smiled slightly, and then walked away.

Jiang Qingwu sighed secretly, bowed and saluted, "Farewell, Her Majesty."

After leaving the palace, Jiang Qingwu went straight to the North Garden of the Regent's Palace.

Yan Xiuchen was worried the whole night. When Jiang Qingwu came back, he was pacing back and forth in the yard.

"Your Highness, the girl is here..." Tan Xi shouted and silently stepped aside.

"Gu Qing..." Yan Xiuchen subconsciously stepped forward and hugged the person in his arms.

She thought Yan Xiuchen would blame her for going to the secret chamber without permission, but she didn't expect that he would risk going to the palace to save her, and now he is so worried about her.

"Don't blame me."

Hearing Jiang Qingwu's words, Yan Xiuchen suddenly let go of her.

His expression suddenly changed, and his gaze towards her became a little colder, "You are becoming more and more courageous. You even dare to go to the secret chamber alone."

"Give me back the jade token."

When Jiang Qingwu heard Yan Xiuchen's words, he instantly frowned and his face turned cold.

Then he took out the jade token from his bosom and said, "The jade token is a token of love. If you want me to return it to you, you should think it over carefully."

As he spoke, Jiang Qingwu handed over the jade token.

Yan Xiuchen looked at the jade token that was brought to him, then sneered and shook his head, "I... was just kidding."

"Are you kidding? I'm not kidding." Jiang Qingwu came closer with a smile, then suddenly changed his expression and threw the jade token towards Yan Xiuchen.

Seeing Jiang Qingwu turn around and go towards Gu Yanbai's room, Yan Xiuchen hurriedly followed with the jade token.

"Gu Qing...I was really just joking..." Yan Xiuchen caught up with Jiang Qingwu and handed the jade token back to him.

Jiang Qingwu glanced at Yan Xiuchen and turned to leave, but Yan Xiuchen pulled her back and held her in his arms.

"I'm really just worried about you..."

Jiang Qingwu naturally knew what Yan Xiuchen meant. He raised a winner's smile and reached out to take the jade token.

"Can you two...take care of my life or death? There is a seriously injured patient here."

Gu Yanbai was hanging his arm, standing on tiptoe, and hopping towards the couch.

Jiang Qingwu came to his senses and quickly pulled away, and Yan Xiuchen also hurried to help him.

"What's wrong with your foot? Is your foot injured?" Jiang Qingwu looked at Gu Yanbai and asked in confusion.

Gu Yanbai smiled bitterly and shook his head, "If I say I sprained my ankle, would you believe me?"

"I don't believe it. You are so good at Qinggong, how could you sprain your ankle?"

"It's true. That person is familiar with my martial arts and knows that my lower body is unstable. If it wasn't for Xu Qingran..."

Gu Yanbai's voice suddenly stopped as he spoke, and then a light laugh came out, "It's nothing, she died a worthy death."

"How can it be a worthy death? She treated you as a pawn, and you treated her as a chess piece. She died for you, and you didn't even say a word of kindness?"

When Gu Yanbai heard Jiang Qingwu's words, he sneered.

"She is different from you. Or rather, my woman...is different from his woman."

Gu Yanbai leaned back in his chair, a wicked smile on his face, and looked at Yan Xiuchen.

"I'm not like him, so stupid, waiting for one woman, only one woman, for so many years."

"But if you like me, I can be like him."

Seeing Gu Yanbai's unruly appearance, Yan Xiuchen sighed helplessly and sat aside with a gloomy face.

"Don't pay attention to him, he's talking nonsense again."

Hearing this, Jiang Qingwu shook his head slightly, turned around and sat on the couch beside him, took out a piece of paper from his arms and slapped it on the table.

"I found it in the Chamber of Secrets."
