Reborn to marry the regent and seize the throne as queen

Gu Yanbai's words also made Yan Xiuchen recall the events of the past two days in detail.

Indeed, even though Bai Ruosheng was injured, his body shape and steps were still different from those of ordinary people.

All the items and food in the palace are the best in Dayan.

Not to mention the ordinary people in a small border town, even the wealthy families in the capital might not be able to adapt to his palace.

But he seemed to be accustomed to seeing everything.

Seeing Yan Xiuchen thinking seriously, Gu Yanbai chuckled and said jokingly, "I think you are trapped in love and a little confused."

"In the past two days, apart from lamenting their story, being grateful to Bai Ruosheng for saving my life, and feeling jealous, I'm afraid I have no time to pay attention to these things."

"Otherwise I can see that you must be more insightful than me."

Yan Xiuchen stared at Gu Yanbai, thinking about something with some doubt and anxiety.

In his previous life, Bai Ruosheng last appeared in Sanshui City, and the news of his death reached Jiang Qingwu's ears very early.

It did not appear again afterwards. If this is really fake, it does confirm the trajectory of the previous life.

Seeing Yan Xiuchen distracted, Gu Yanbai said hesitantly, "Actually, a few days ago, I was stopped by a mysterious man in black."

Yan Xiuchen suddenly came to his senses and asked, "Who are these men in black? Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Gu Yanbai sighed and said, "It's okay. It was on the long street. He only said one sentence to me and left in a hurry."

"That person is the one I fought with today."

"His Qinggong is better than mine, and his martial arts is better than mine. He is definitely not a kind person."

"I saw him coming towards the palace with my own eyes, and he disappeared in the blink of an eye."

"and……"

As he spoke, Gu Yanbai's face darkened, "When I caught up with him, he seemed to be meeting someone."

"Although I didn't see the person he met, I heard him speak."

“I couldn’t tell if the voice was Bai Ruosheng’s, but his words were like a knife hanging over my heart.”

Yan Xiuchen couldn't help but get nervous after hearing this, "What did you say?"

"He said, 'Watch that man, don't let him die...'"

Gu Yanbai muttered, and when he turned to look at Yan Xiuchen, Yan Xiuchen also looked at him in surprise.

"That person? Who is that person?" Yan Xiuchen asked, thinking about something in confusion.

Gu Yanbai was also thoughtful. After a moment of silence, he snorted and laughed, "Sooner or later... we'll find out."

Yan Xiuchen came back to his senses, exhaled heavily, thought for a moment and said.

"All suspicions, no evidence."

"This matter... still needs to be investigated. We can't be so sure that this Bai Ruosheng is fake."

Gu Yanbai sighed helplessly and said, "I know that I really shouldn't tell Gu Qing now."

"I just want you to be more careful."

Yan Xiuchen listened and suddenly understood something, "So, you brought Gu Qing here just now because you were afraid that he would... hurt Gu Qing?"

"If he is genuine, I have nothing but admiration and gratitude for him."

"I wouldn't worry about what he would do to Gu Qing."

"But if he is fake, what is his identity and purpose? Is it intentional... or something else?"

As soon as Gu Yanbai finished speaking, Yan Xiuchen's heart suddenly tightened, and he looked at Gu Yanbai with a frown.

Something else?! If something else, what would that be?

Yan Xiuchen thought about it and his thoughts came back to his mind.

"I will be careful about this matter and investigate it secretly, but don't tell Gu Qing until you have evidence."

"I don't want her to worry about this, and I don't want her to be... disappointed..."

Gu Yanbai gave a bitter smile, sat on the couch, and shook his head gently, "Even if you ask me to say it, I won't."

"She now thinks Bai Ruosheng is her dearest relative. I told you, she is asking for a fight."

"By the way, where is she going with Bai Ruosheng tomorrow?"

Yan Xiuchen reacted, poured himself some tea and handed it to Gu Yanbai.

"Bai Ruosheng rented a house in Anshun Lane, West City. Gu Qing will accompany him there tomorrow."

Gu Yanbai nodded, holding the teacup and looking at Yan Xiuchen, "I'll go with you tomorrow, don't worry..."

"No matter what kind of demon or monster Bai Ruosheng is, or whether he is a bodhisattva who saves people from suffering, I will not let Gu Qing lose a single hair."

Hearing this, Yan Xiuchen looked at Gu Yanbai and gave him a teasing smile.

"It's natural for me to be jealous, but what are you jealous of?"

"What are you jealous of?" Gu Yanbai blurted out, looking at Yan Xiuchen in confusion, and then he remembered something.

"Oh, just now, I was just trying to please you, you couldn't hear it."

"Besides, what's wrong with me being jealous? You eat yours and I eat mine."

As he spoke, Gu Yanbai smiled and leaned forward with a teacup in hand, "You are jealous, right?"

"Are you sick of seeing Gu Qing being with me, or are you sick of seeing me being with her...Brother?"

Seeing that Gu Yanbai was not serious again, Yan Xiuchen sighed helplessly, got up and left, "Go to bed early."

……

On the way back, Jiang Qingwu was in a state of anxiety, thinking about Gu Yanbai's injury and how he suddenly rushed in to find Bai Ruosheng.

Although Gu Yanbai behaves unruly and is a naughty person, he is still very sensible when it comes to major and important matters.

Something must have happened for him to do that.

Wanyue, who was riding in the same carriage, yawned and looked at Jiang Qingwu with her chin in her hand.

"I was thinking that the young lady would stay in the palace today?"

Jiang Qingwu came back to his senses, glanced at Wanyue, sighed softly and said, "I stayed there yesterday, and I have to go back to the Marquis' Mansion today."

"I originally planned to come back with my cousin, but then I thought about going to Yan Xiuchen to explain, and then I became worried about Ah Sheng..."

Jiang Qingwu murmured absentmindedly, sighed softly, pushed open the small window of the carriage and looked over.

The night sky is dark and dark clouds cover the moon.

On the silent long street, the only sound was the clattering of carriages.

"I owe him so much, and now he is right in front of me..."

"I always want to give him more food and things to use..."

"Whether it's the things, the thoughts, or the company, I always want to see him get better and better..."

Seeing Jiang Qingwu sad, Wanyue leaned towards her and comforted her softly, "Girl, don't be sad, those things are in the past..."

"Now, Master Bai has finally seen the light at the end of the tunnel, and no longer has to endure the bitter days of being bullied and humiliated."

Jiang Qingwu looked at Wanyue in a daze, then turned to look at the moon in the night sky that was covered by dark clouds and flickered.

My heart trembled slightly, and tears fell without any warning, "The clouds will clear and the moon will appear..."

……

"Go find a doctor... The Master said, don't let him die."

A cold voice came from the dark and gloomy dungeon.

It is already May, spring, but it is still freezing.

There was only a tiny window in the dim cell.

The moonlight appeared faintly and fell through the window onto the face of a man in the cell.

It was an extremely good-looking face, but as pale as paper.

The man was crawling weakly on the ground, skinny and covered with scars.

With his eyes closed, he was dying, his bloody hands were trembling slightly as he hid them in his arms, as if he was tightly grasping something...
