Reborn to marry the regent and seize the throne as queen

Jiang Qingwu frowned slightly, and his expression became even uglier when he thought of the past that he couldn't bear to look back on.

"You're right. If he hadn't been so good at deceiving people, I wouldn't have ended up like that."

"Now I won't let the Shen family work for him and end up destroying their family."

"I won't find the protection of the Purge King either."

The more Jiang Qingwu thought about it, the more annoyed he became. Just when he was frowning, Wanyue came over with a smile.

"Miss, let me tell you something happy."

"What? What's there to be happy about?"

Wan Yue heard the voice and leaned towards Jiang Qingwu's ear, "Your Highness is going to ascend the throne, is this considered a happy thing?"

Jiang Qingwu frowned and looked at Wanyue, disapprovingly, "Who told you about those rumors on the street?"

Wan Yue shook her head slightly and lowered her voice, "Jiu Han said that all the ministers in the court have been kneeling in your Majesty's Shangyang Palace for three days."

"Your Majesty, please appoint a crown prince to stabilize the government."

"Everyone on the street knows that all the ministers in the court are begging Your Highness to ascend the throne."

Jiang Qingwu stared at Wanyue in a daze, remembering that before in the palace, Yan Xiuchen went to Shangyang Palace.

Since I went to Shangyang Palace, I must know these things. Since I know them but don't deal with them, then...

Jiang Qingwu thought about it, vaguely understood something, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and started playing in the water.

"If my guess is correct, the next step for all the ministers in the court is to kneel down in the Prince Regent's Palace."

Jiang Qingwu was muttering to himself when Luo Ming's voice suddenly came from outside the door.

"Miss... Miss, the person you asked for has been found and taken to the other garden."

"Got it. Let them wait. I'll be there soon."

Jiang Qingwu echoed and gestured to Wanyue to get her clothes.

"Wanyue, bring two good cooks from our courtyard to the other courtyard."

"I wrote a list and asked them to follow it. Your Highness and Gu Yanbai will be there for dinner."

"Get a braised roast chicken from Song Ji and send it over. Gu Yanbai loves it."

Jiang Qingwu gave instructions while putting on his clothes.

"Yes, girl, I get it."

At sunset, the sunset is just right.

Jiang Qingwu was wearing a green dress and a gauze outer shirt, which made her look even more gentle and charming.

When Jiang Qingwu and Luo Ming arrived at the villa, seven or eight villagers were kneeling down one after another.

"Let's all stand up and talk." Jiang Qingwu sat silently beside the stone table on Qingxin Terrace, but several villagers crouched down and did not dare to stand up.

Jiang Qingwu was stunned for a moment and looked at the person in front. "Are you the head of South Village?"

"Yes, sir. I am the head of the South Village on the outskirts of the city. Before... before, I really didn't know that man was a rebel."

Jiang Qingwu nodded gently and repeated to the others, "Everyone, please stand up. I have something to ask you, but I am not going to hold you accountable."

Seeing that they still didn't dare to move, Luo Ming stepped forward and shouted, "Get up when I tell you to."

Jiang Qingwu looked at the people who stood up and sighed softly.

"My people found a farmer's family at the east end of Nancun Village. The Mr. Bai was indeed a rebel."

"Moreover, you also sent vegetables, meat and other things to the people of Shiwei Manor in Qiduling..."

"From what I know, you guys all kept silent because you were paid a lot of money."

Hearing the sound, several people were so scared that they fell to their knees again.

Seeing this, Jiang Qingwu stood up and walked over, "Don't be nervous, you guys helped before."

"If you hadn't revealed the details of Shiwei Manor, the government wouldn't have arrested all of them."

"The merits and demerits offset each other...but..."

"The mastermind is on the run, and I can't find anyone now. Can anyone tell me where the owner of Shiwei Manor has gone, or know any news about him?"

Several people looked at each other, and it was the village chief who spoke first.

"The things were delivered from the path behind the mountain. I didn't see that gentleman very often, but I often saw an old man fishing by the river in the valley."

"Some villagers who delivered vegetables said that he was the gentleman on the mountain."

fishing?

Jiang Qingwu frowned slightly and walked closer to him, "Anything else?"

"No...no more."

"He fishes there... occasionally or all the time."

"Almost... every day." The village chief said, and suddenly seemed to remember something, and said to Jiang Qingwu, "He... he loves to eat sesame cakes."

"Sesame biscuits?" Jiang Qingwu was stunned and looked at the village chief in disbelief.

This King Suqing loves to eat sesame cakes. How could he like to eat sesame cakes like her...

Seeing Jiang Qingwu distracted, Luo Ming glanced at everyone and said, "Does anyone have anything else to say? Even the smallest thing will do."

Seeing that no one said anything, Jiang Qingwu nodded slightly to Luo Ming.

"Here are four hundred taels of silver, fifty taels per person. When you go back, just pretend this never happened."

"Go about your life as usual. If you remember anything, come back here anytime. If the clue is useful, you will be rewarded."

As he spoke, Luo Ming handed a few silver ingots to the village chief.

The village chief held the silver in his hand and knelt down in a hurry, and the people behind him also knelt down.

"Yes, yes, thank you very much."

When the villagers were being sent away, Jiang Qingwu was still sitting beside the stone table, thinking about something absent-mindedly.

Zhuang Qing brought over some tea and snacks and waved her hand in front of her several times before Jiang Qingwu came back to her senses.

"Oh, Zhuang Qing..."

"Girl, these sesame cakes are just bought. Eat them while they're hot." Zhuang Qing said as she poured a cup of tea.

Jiang Qingwu looked at the sesame cake on the plate and couldn't help but pick it up. He stared at the still steaming cake, as if thinking about something.

"He also likes to eat sesame cakes, so it's not like there's no clue."

"Luo Ming..." Jiang Qingwu turned around and shouted. Luo Ming, who was far away, heard the voice and hurried over.

"girl."

"The best-selling sesame cakes in Beijing are in the North City and South City, with a total of four stores."

"Send a few veterans to watch the store from opening to closing time to see if there are any suspicious people buying sesame cakes."

Jiang Qingwu gave the order, and then hurriedly added another sentence.

"It should be someone who buys five or more at a time, and who isn't too badly dressed."

Luo Ming nodded slightly, agreeing in a daze, "Yes, girl, I'll arrange it right away."

Seeing Luo Ming leave, Jiang Qingwu secretly breathed a sigh of relief and looked up at Zhuang Qing, "How is the kitchen going?"

"Sister Wanyue is watching. It's almost done."

"Let's go and take a look." Jiang Qingwu agreed. Just as he stood up, a shrill shout came from the direction of the door.

"Jiang Qingwu, stop right there. You are really capable. A girl from the boudoir actually opened her own house. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at by others?"

Yan Xue strode over aggressively with two personal guards and a maidservant.

Jiang Qingwu looked at Yan Xue in a daze. Although she did not arrange guards in this house, she had two servants.

Yan Xue actually walked into the inner courtyard so brazenly.

"Fourth Princess? How did you get in? Are you here to see me?"

Jiang Qingwu asked, and then noticed what the two maids behind Yan Xue were holding.

"I'm here to give you a gift and ask you to be my matchmaker." Yan Xue said, waving to the maid behind her.
