Reborn to marry the regent and seize the throne as queen

These words made Bai Ruosheng's heart tremble suddenly.

Just like that night, Jiang Qingwu blocked the knife for him without hesitation.

But soon, Bai Ruosheng came back to his senses, his thoughts gradually became clear, and he sneered with a bit of self-mockery.

"Who am I? Even if I'm not a bastard, I'm just a branch of the royal family. How can I be called a member of your bloodline?"

"The only people who are related to you are the current emperor and Prince Pingqing of Jiangnan."

Yan Xiuchen lowered his eyes slightly, thinking about something thoughtfully.

"What I said to you is all from the heart."

As he spoke, Yan Xiuchen's thoughts were pulled back, and he immediately pushed the antidote towards Bai Ruosheng and slowly stood up.

"There are still three days left. Whether you agree to join forces with me or not, the antidote will be given to you."

"You have time to think about it, but please... take good care of Bai Asheng. If he dies, Gu Qing will be uneasy for the rest of his life."

Bai Ruosheng picked up the antidote on the table, and when he turned to look at Yan Xiuchen, he had already walked away.

"Brother Wang? You are the first person to acknowledge me...Brother Wang!"

Bai Ruosheng rode on his horse, slowly returning to his house in West City on the long street in the dead of night.

My thoughts were in a mess along the way, and all I could think about were the words Jiang Qingwu and Yan Xiuchen said.

But just when he was in a trance, a strange noise suddenly came from the quiet surroundings, which woke him up suddenly and he immediately tightened the reins vigilantly.

"Come out."

As soon as he finished speaking, several dark shadows emerged from the darkness and knelt in front of him in an orderly manner.

"Meet Master Nan."

"Are you the only ones? That's not right." Bai Ruosheng said coldly to several people, looked around and sighed softly, "Bai Ge, come out."

When Bai Ge heard Bai Ruosheng's shout, he walked out of the alley with a sword in his hand and a hat on.

"Xiu Ye..."

"Sir, do you have any instructions?" Bai Ruosheng sat on his horse, staring at Bai Ge with sharp eyes.

Bai Ge walked closer silently, holding the sword and clasping his hands together, "Master has ordered that you kill Jiang Qingwu immediately and return to Shiwei Manor to report."

Bai Ruosheng nodded gently, leaned forward, and said with a hint of amusement, "What if I... don't want to?"

"Xiu Ye, you are the one that the master values ​​the most, so please don't mess around."

"Humph, since you are the one that you value the most, it's nothing if you don't obey me once."

As he said that, Bai Ruosheng tightened the reins and prepared to leave. "Go back and tell him that I have a crush on Jiang Qingwu. It is impossible to kill her."

Seeing that Bai Ruosheng was about to leave, the people kneeling on the ground did not dare to stop him and made way for him. Only Bai Ge stood in front.

"Get out of the way." Bai Ruosheng shouted sternly.

Bai Ge hesitated for a moment, silently made way, but still called out to him.

"Sir, killing her will put an end to everything. It will be the best for both you and His Highness."

"There are too many people around Jiang Qingwu, don't dream."

Bai Ruosheng's eyes turned fierce, and murderous aura emanated from his body. "Your daughter dares to dream of becoming the future emperor, so why can't I dream of a daughter of a general?"

"Gee..." Bai Ruosheng left without looking back after saying this.

Bai Ge looked at Bai Ruosheng riding away on his horse and waved to the people behind him.

"You are all masters of Qiduling. Young Master promoted you all. You all know what to do, right?"

"I will kill Jiang Qingwu for you. With the body, we can naturally exchange it for the antidote."

"Okay..." Bai Ge agreed and turned away.

It was almost dawn when Bai Ruosheng rode back to his residence in West City.

But the house was dark and silent.

Bai Ruosheng paused, thinking of Jiang Qingwu's Wutong Garden with its hordes of servants.

Thinking of the bright lights on in Yan Xiuchen's uninhabited South Garden, his heart suddenly sank and he sighed heavily.

"If you know, you won't chase those people away, the place will be empty..."

I thought it was just the sound of myself talking, but there was a response from inside the house.

"Who said that? I've been waiting for you for a long time."

Bai Ruosheng's heart tightened, his face suddenly changed, and then he slowly walked in.

"First your father is here, and now it's you. What's going on? You and your daughter don't plan to let me sleep with you, right?"

"What's the point of sleeping alone? Don't you want to sleep with Jiang Qingwu in your arms?" Tang Zhi said as she lit the candle in the room, igniting a light.

Bai Ruosheng was stunned at first, but after seeing Tang Zhi, he couldn't help but sneer contemptuously.

"What's wrong with your face? It looks like you got beaten up?"

"What are you laughing at? How good are you? Did you get the antidote?"

The smile on Bai Ruosheng's face suddenly froze. He turned to look at Tang Zhi and suddenly realized something.

"Where can I get the antidote if the sir didn't give it to me?"

"I told you, you're not much better than me. I've already stolen the antidote and given it to Yan Xiuchen."

"Didn't Yan Xiuchen give it to you?"

"Oh, yes, he must want to threaten you with the antidote and make you hand over Bai Asheng."

Bai Ruosheng suddenly understood and sat on a chair beside him with a look of mockery in his eyes.

"You stole the antidote? How did you steal it? How could you possibly steal the antidote?"

"You stole the antidote, but gave it to Yan Xiuchen instead of me..."

"You keep saying you want to cooperate with me, but you still try to please that man."

"It seems that you wanted to exchange the antidote with Yan Xiuchen for something, but the funny thing is... you didn't get it."

As Bai Ruosheng spoke, he heard a sneer and shook his head gently, "I'm afraid I can't bear to look at this face. Yan Xiuchen is really cruel."

"Nan Xiuye, stop talking nonsense." Tang Zhi slammed the table and approached Bai Ruosheng, "I came here to discuss cooperation with you."

"I'm not interested in working with you." Bai Ruosheng blurted out, then stood up and prepared to leave.

But the next moment Tang Zhi grabbed the sword on the table, drew his sword and stabbed at him from behind.

Bai Ruosheng became alert and quickly dodged. He turned around and snatched Tang Zhi's sword in one move and grabbed her neck.

Tang Zhi was not panicked and smiled softly, "We are all in the same boat, don't be so fierce."

"How about I send Jiang Qingwu to your bed to help you, and then you can go with the flow and help them break off the engagement?"

"By the way, you two are traveling alone in the middle of the night. If the news gets out throughout the city..."

Hearing Tang Zhi's words, Bai Ruosheng's face suddenly changed, "How dare you... I don't bother to do such a despicable thing."

Having said that, Bai Ruosheng let go of Tang Zhi, but Tang Zhi instantly became annoyed when she saw Bai Ruosheng turning around.

"You are noble. Fine, then don't blame me for killing Jiang Qingwu."

"If I can't get Yan Xiuchen, she can't get him either..." Tang Zhi said viciously, picked up the sword on the ground and walked out.

But after hearing Tang Zhi's words, Bai Ruosheng lost his composure and his figure flashed out the door.

Tang Zhi reacted, turned around and looked at Bai Ruosheng who was about to hit her with a palm. She raised her hand to block the palm, but fell heavily to the ground and spit out blood.

"You...you actually attacked me for that woman..."

"Is she so good? Why do you all protect her like this?"

Bai Ruosheng looked at Tang Zhi coldly, his face as cold as frost, gloomy and terrifying, "Hmph, if you dare to hurt her in the slightest, don't blame me for not remembering our friendship for so many years."

She was not convinced, and she didn't understand why everyone was protecting Jiang Qingwu, Yan Xiuchen, Gu Yanbai, and Nan Xiuye, one by one, two, and three of them.

Seeing Bai Ruosheng was about to leave, Tang Zhi came to her senses and suddenly heard a sneer.

"Haha, as a killer, you have a soft spot if you are tempted by human desires. You will die miserably."

"But don't worry, Jiang Qingwu will die before you."

"What did you say?" Bai Ruosheng asked harshly and turned back.

Seeing this, Tang Zhi raised her hand and gestured, "For the sake of our long-term companionship, come here and I will tell you."

Bai Ruosheng was a cautious person, but seeing that Tang Zhi was seriously injured and unable to hold on, he became a little careless.

What's more, Jiang Qingwu was so anxious that he leaned towards him.

Tang Zhi pretended to move closer to speak, but the next moment she raised her hand and stabbed Bai Ruosheng in the back of his neck with a silver needle.

"You..." Bai Ruosheng's body suddenly trembled, and when he reacted, it was too late.
