Reborn to marry the regent and seize the throne as queen

The sound of the golden whistle resounded through the sky and penetrated half of the capital city.

The Regent's Palace could hear it especially clearly. When Yan Xiuchen, who was arranging the guards in the courtyard, heard the whistle, he was suddenly startled.

"Golden Shao, it's Golden Shao...is it Gu Qing?" Gu Yanbai ran over from the direction of the wing room, and Yan Xiuchen immediately threw the knife at Gu Yanbai.

"It sounds like... it's from the direction of Shunqing Marquis Mansion."

"I'll go first." Gu Yanbai took the weapon, left a word, then jumped onto the roof and disappeared.

Gu Yanbai used his lightness skills all the way, and by the time he arrived at Wutong Garden in Shunqing Marquis's mansion, three of the eight people had already died.

But Wanyue was injured, Luo Ming was gradually defeated, and only Jiang Qingwu was barely holding on.

Gu Yanbai jumped down from the roof and chopped down with his sword.

"Who is looking for death?" Gu Yanbai stood in front of Jiang Qingwu and pointed a knife at him.

Jiang Qingwu secretly breathed a sigh of relief and stood still, "That gentleman's people, who received a favor from Nan Xiuye, wanted to kill me for him and get the antidote."

Gu Yanbai frowned slightly and reacted, "Idiot!"

"If he were here, he would probably kill you with one blow."

"Don't listen to his nonsense. He is just good at Qinggong. Yan Xiuchen and the others must not have arrived yet. Let's kill Jiang Qingwu first."

At the leader's command, the others followed suit.

"Oh, you underestimate me. You really think I'm a jack of all trades." Gu Yanbai shouted and walked straight towards him.

Just when the three were struggling to cope, suddenly several people rushed up from the backyard.

Jiang Qingwu looked closely and found that it was A'Luo.

A'Luo held a sword in her hand and, with two of her men, stood directly in front of her and Gu Yanbai.

"A Luo? Are you standing in the wrong place?"

Ah Luo raised the sword, looked back at Jiang Qingwu and said, "The master has ordered me to come to see the young lady, saying that someone is trying to assassinate you and you need to be on guard."

"He also said that Bai Asheng is in the imperial mausoleum, and asked the girl to take people there immediately."

The imperial tomb is really in the imperial tomb.

Hearing the voice, Jiang Qingwu hurried forward and was about to say something when several people surrounded him.

"After midnight tonight, if you don't have the antidote, you will die. This woman must die, and only then will you give me the antidote."

The other party shouted and came with a knife.

Seeing this, A'Luo didn't hesitate and went straight to meet him.

When Yan Xiuchen led his men into Wutong Garden, the fighting had already ended.

Two escaped, the rest died.

A'Luo was injured, but not seriously. Wanyue was stabbed and leaned against the pillar in the hallway, unable to stand.

Gu Yanbai looked at the corpses scattered all over the ground and walked towards Yan Xiuchen, "A Luo said that Bai A Sheng is in the imperial mausoleum. I will go first, and you and Gu Qing can follow."

"it is good."

Seeing Gu Yanbai leaving, Yan Xiuchen called out to the person behind him, "Xiao Liuzi, you stay in the Marquis' Mansion to deal with the aftermath. Don't alert the people from the court and the Jingfu Division."

"Also, please ask the doctor to take good care of Wanyue."

Yan Xiuchen instructed, pulling Jiang Qingwu who was beside Wanyue, "Let's go first."

Jiang Qingwu came to his senses, picked up the knife on the ground and stood up and left.

……

Jiang Qingwu and Yan Xiuchen rode on horseback, taking Luo Ming, Jiuhan and a dozen personal guards from the palace, and rushed to the imperial mausoleum in a mighty procession.

When we arrived, it was already daybreak.

The imperial mausoleum was the same as usual, with guards standing outside the gate and everything was very quiet.

The guards were also surprised to see Yan Xiuchen and his group, and hurried over to greet them.

"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Regent, may His Royal Highness live a thousand years..."

"No need to be so polite, open the door..." Yan Xiuchen shouted loudly and dismounted from his horse.

Jiang Qingwu had been to the imperial mausoleum before. At that time, Yan Lin was imprisoned there. The emperor had prepared servants and imperial doctors, and there was some life everywhere.

Now there is only silence and a gloomy feeling.

"Jiuhan, Luo Ming, take the people and search separately..."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Jiang Qingwu held the sword, looked at the towering steps, and followed him with Yan Xiuchen.

"The imperial mausoleum is so big... where would Brother Asheng be?" Jiang Qingwu asked while looking around.

Yan Xiuchen sighed softly and shook his head slightly, "This imperial mausoleum is very large, there are many places to hide."

"Jiuye and the others have been here for a whole night, but no news has come out. And Aze has been here for so long before us, so I guess he must have been here a long time ago."

"Will there be an ambush here?" Jiang Qingwu asked uneasily and slowed down his pace involuntarily.

Yan Xiuchen was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Jiang Qingwu, "If it was Nan Xiuye ​​who asked us to come, then it should be no."

Jiang Qingwu nodded slightly, and chuckled as he thought of the painting.

"When I saw the painting, I thought he just wanted me to find him by the moat, but it turns out there is such a secret."

"Even if you saw through his hidden secrets at that time, Bai Asheng was not in the imperial mausoleum."

Yan Xiuchen looked at Jiang Qingwu with certainty, "Didn't Aze say that he was injured in Xiancheng before and has not yet come to the capital."

"I guess Nan Xiuye ​​probably just had such a plan and arrangement at that time."

"He knew very well that after leaving the palace, he would never have the chance to return, and we would definitely check his room, so he left the painting behind."

As he spoke, Yan Xiuchen seemed to remember something and lowered his voice to Jiang Qingwu, "Gu Qing, will you...will you kill Nan Xiuye?"

"Kill Nan Xiuye? Why did you kill Nan Xiuye?"

"He hurt Bai Asheng, so he took his place to deceive you."

Jiang Qingwu lowered his eyes slightly, thought seriously, and then chuckled, "That depends on whether this is his idea."

"He hurt Brother Asheng, and he saved me many times."

"Even today, A'Luo came to help me under his orders and told us the whereabouts of Brother Asheng."

Jiang Qingwu said, and said to Yan Xiuchen with certainty, "I won't kill him."

"Thanks……"

"Thank you?" Jiang Qingwu looked at Yan Xiuchen in surprise, "Thank you? Thank you for what?"

Yan Xiuchen took a deep breath and was silent for a long time, as if he had mustered up his courage, "He is..."

Yan Xiuchen had intended to tell Jiang Qingwu Bai Ruosheng's identity, but before he could finish his words, a shrill shout came from behind him.

"Bai Ge pays respect to His Highness." Bai Ge's voice.

Although he was respectful in words, he led a large group of assassins and quickly surrounded Yan Xiuchen and Jiang Qingwu.

When the two looked back, they found that it was not only Bai Ge, but also Bai Ruosheng who was following Bai Ge.

Jiang Qingwu looked at Bai Ruosheng, who was dressed in white and holding a sword, with his pupils slightly bright.

"What's going on? Did I see it wrong?"

"There's a problem." Yan Xiuchen murmured in a low voice, subconsciously hiding Jiang Qingwu behind him.

"The spies reported that His Highness and his men were rushing here, so I followed them."

"On the orders of the gentleman, please ask Miss Jiang to go back and have tea."

Yan Xiuchen sneered when he heard Bai Ge's words, "I am here, how can I rely on you?"

"Your Highness, please don't embarrass me. I am only following your orders."

"I advise Your Highness to listen to my master. Otherwise, if Xiu Ye and I work together, Your Highness will definitely not be our opponent."

Bai Ge said this, then slowly drew his sword.

But the next moment, Bai Ruosheng snatched his sword away with lightning speed and put his backhand on his neck.

"Who wants to join forces with you?"
