Reborn to marry the regent and seize the throne as queen

When Jiang Qingwu heard Su Wenli's voice, she subconsciously let go of Yan Xiuchen.

After dodging, Yan Xiuchen's expression turned ugly.

But before he could say anything, his hands were empty.

Jiang Qingwu walked straight towards Su Wenli.

"Cousin? What's wrong?"

Su Wenli was stunned for a moment, then walked towards Jiang Qingwu and said in a low voice, "The queen mother is here, Yan Lin is here too, and they are making a fuss in the front hall right now."

"It's estimated that it will be here soon. We need to prepare now."

"Okay." Jiang Qingwu agreed, turned around and pointed at Yan Xiuchen, "Hurry up and lie down. Remember, don't show your true colors."

"I..." Yan Xiuchen opened his mouth, but before he could finish his words, Jiang Qingwu hurried away.

Seeing this, Su Wenli raised the corners of his lips slightly, bowed to Yan Xiuchen, turned around and followed Jiang Qingwu.

Yan Xiuchen held a breath in his throat and exhaled heavily, then let out a helpless bitter smile.

"They dug a hole for themselves and jumped into it. If they had known this would happen, they would not have wanted the Su family to return to Beijing."

……

In the front yard, the empress dowager was standing in the yard. The ceremonial guard was still there, with eunuchs, palace maids, and the imperial guards forming a mighty formation.

Even though Yan Lin is in power now, he doesn't dare to be too presumptuous in public.

I can only stand respectfully before the Queen Mother.

The coffin prepared for Yan Xiuchen has been placed in the main hall of the front yard.

"Ai Jia, I want you to evacuate all the people..."

Seeing the Queen Mother's harsh and commanding tone, Yan Lin bowed slightly towards her with the corners of his lips slightly raised.

"Queen Mother, I only sent troops to protect Uncle Wang."

"So that no one can disturb Uncle Wang's peace."

The Queen Mother's eyes darkened, she walked forward, and slapped Yan Lin.

There was a slap, and then silence fell all around.

"You want to control Xiu Chen's confidants, put Jiang Qingwu under house arrest, stop court officials from paying their respects, and find evidence that you murdered your uncle."

Yan Lin's face was gloomy. After hearing what the Queen Mother said, he couldn't help but feel guilty and forced a smile from his face.

"Your Majesty, you are joking. How could I be the one who murdered Uncle Wang?"

"It was clearly done by the Fuye people."

Yan Lin waved his hand helplessly and said, "Everyone evacuate the Regent's Palace."

"Yes, Prince."

Hearing this, Yan Lin bowed slightly to the Queen Mother and said, "Queen Mother, are you okay now? Let me accompany you to see Uncle Wang."

The Queen Mother looked at Yan Lin viciously, and was extremely annoyed when she saw how complacent he was.

Although the people surrounding the Regent's Palace had withdrawn, the palace was not clean either.

After such a chaos, people died, were injured, and were captured. The palace was like a vegetable market.

When the Queen Mother saw Yan Lin coming to help her, she suddenly pushed him away, turned around and grabbed Nanny Zhong, "Let's go to Beiyuan. I want to go see him."

When the Queen Mother, several of her confidants, and Yan Lin arrived at Beiyuan, Jiang Qingwu was kneeling in front of the incense in the outer hall, burning paper.

Beside him are Tan Xi and Wan Yue, and hiding in the dark corner is Su Wenli.

Seeing the Queen Mother coming, Jiang Qingwu immediately knelt down and saluted, "Your servant pays respect to the Queen Mother."

With a hoarse voice, red and swollen eyes, and a pale face, the Queen Mother glanced at Jiang Qingwu and shouted angrily, "Where is Xiuchen?"

"Still in the house..."

Upon hearing the voice, the Queen Mother went straight into the inner room without saying a word.

Seeing this, Yan Lin wanted to follow in, but was stopped by Jiang Qingwu, "Aren't you afraid that he will get up and strangle you to death?"

Their eyes met, one was calm and composed, the other glared angrily.

The two of them had not yet come to a conclusion in their confrontation when the Queen Mother's crying was heard from the room.

"Xiu Chen...how can you let me, an old man, send off my young son..."

Yan Lin was startled for a moment, then took a step back, "Okay, I won't go in. Anyway... the Queen Mother can cry to death, but she can't bring back her good son."

Having said that, Yan Lin turned around and walked away.

Jiang Qingwu secretly breathed a sigh of relief and winked at Xiao Liuzi who was standing at the door.

Xiao Liuzi nodded slightly, and quietly followed Yan Lin and the others. He only relaxed after making sure that Yan Lin and his confidants had really left Beiyuan.

"Jiang Qingwu, get in here."

Hearing the scolding in the room, Wanyue and Su Wenli couldn't help but move closer to Jiang Qingwu.

"Nothing..." Jiang Qingwu calmed himself down and went straight into the inner room.

"Your servant pays respect to the Queen Mother."

Jiang Qingwu had just arrived, and before he could even bend down to greet her, the empress dowager slapped him in the face.

Jiang Qingwu's body suddenly froze. Su Wenli, who was hiding outside the door, frowned and subconsciously wanted to step forward, but was held back by Tan Xi.

"Mr. Su, don't be impulsive."

Su Wenli came back to his senses and secretly paused.

"Please forgive me, Queen Mother. I am guilty of not protecting Your Highness."

After being slapped, Jiang Qingwu fell to his knees on the ground, tears in his eyes and mumbling with sobs in his throat.

The Queen Mother was still furious. She turned around and grabbed Jiang Qingwu's collar, "It's all your fault, it's all your fault. You must have killed him..."

Although he kept scolding her, he could no longer hide the sobs in his heart and throat, and he started crying as he spoke.

I almost fainted while crying.

Seeing this, Jiang Qingwu quickly stood up and helped her up, "Queen Mother, please accept my condolences... Your Highness..."

Before Jiang Qingwu could finish her words, the empress dowager pushed her away and turned to signal Nanny Zhong.

Upon seeing this, Nanny Zhong took the Empress Dowager's decree from the maid behind her and handed it to Jiang Qingwu.

"The Queen Mother gave you an imperial decree."

Jiang Qingwu looked at the Queen Mother in confusion, opened the scroll, and frowned involuntarily.

"The Queen Mother... The Queen Mother wants me to be buried alive with her?"

Hearing Jiang Qingwu's words, Wan Yue's face changed and she fell to her knees with a thud.

"Your Highness, please think twice. Your Highness values ​​and loves our girl the most. Now that her body is still warm, how can you ..."

“How dare you!” The Queen Mother pointed at Wan Yue and shouted, then turned to look at Jiang Qing Wu, “It’s because he values ​​and loves you, and it’s because your body is still warm…”

"Just let him go now. He hasn't... gone far yet..."

I really feel sorry for her adopted son.

Jiang Qingwu sighed secretly and put away the imperial decree, "Queen Dowager... Your servant can be buried alive with you, and is willing to be buried alive with you."

"Just, Queen Mother, please give me some time."

The Queen Mother's crying gradually subsided, and she looked at Jiang Qingwu, "What are you going to do?"

"This servant will kill Yan Lin and avenge Yan Xiuchen."

"Once my great vengeance is avenged, I will willingly follow His Highness."

The Queen Mother stared at Jiang Qingwu blankly, and her heart was moved.

Seeing this, Jiang Qingwu immediately knelt down and said, "Queen Mother, Yan Lin secretly assassinated Your Highness and executed the Queen and the Second Prince."

"They killed court officials on trumped-up charges and placed Your Majesty under house arrest..."

"Now, in the government and the country, only the Jiang family can fight against it..."

The Queen Mother laughed bitterly and interrupted Jiang Qingwu, "Your father and brother are both at the border. How can a woman like you fight against the Shen family and Yan Lin?"

"Queen, if you do me a favor, I can get rid of Yan Lin."

Jiang Qingwu looked at the Queen Mother confidently, then kowtowed to her.

The Queen Mother was half-believing and half-doubting, and slowly sat down on the chair.

"What do you want me to do?"

"Please ask the Queen Mother to write a secret decree, ordering Prince Pingqing to take over the Regent's army, march into the capital, purge the emperor's entourage, and restore order in the court to avenge His Highness."
