Reborn to marry the regent and seize the throne as queen

When Jiang Qingwu arrived at Fenghe Palace, the eldest prince's wife, Fu Li, was already there.

When Jiang Qingwu saw Fu Li, he was a little surprised and his expression froze, but he quickly came to his senses and bowed to the empress dowager.

"I pay my respects to the Queen Mother. May the Queen Mother be well and safe."

"Get up." The Queen Mother said lightly, her face calm and easy-going.

The Queen Mother disliked her and she came so late, but she didn't make things difficult for her this time.

Jiang Qingwu complained in his heart, slowly stood up and sat on a chair beside him.

Fu Li immediately stepped forward and kowtowed.

"Your humble servant Fu Li pays respect to Her Majesty the Queen. May Her Majesty live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years."

"Stand up, why are you in the palace today?" Jiang Qingwu echoed and looked at Fu Li.

"Your Highness...Your Highness heard that the Queen Mother has recovered from her illness and that the Queen has entered the palace, so I came to pay my respects to her."

"Oh, I heard that Your Majesty loves to eat sesame cakes, so I bought some hot ones on the way here."

"And I personally made some Tremella soup for the Queen Mother and Her Majesty to taste."

As he spoke, Fu Li walked towards the table next to him.

Jiang Qingwu looked at Fu Li not far away, and always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure out what.

Just as she was wondering, the Queen Mother suddenly spoke, bringing her back to her senses.

"You came to pay your respects so late today. I will not bother with you."

"But tomorrow at Qingshui Garden, the concubines of King Xuan and the royal family will come to pay their respects to you. You must not be late and make a fool of yourself."

As expected, he came for this. Jiang Qingwu took a deep breath, stood up and bowed slightly.

"I will keep this in mind. Thank you, Queen Mother, for your teachings."

"Okay, get up. It's rare for Fu Li to come to the palace, and he's still so filial. You're also his aunt, so try this Tremella soup."

The Queen Mother spoke as she took the Tremella soup that Fu Li handed over.

Seeing this, Jiang Qingwu also took a bowl.

It's smooth and thick, but has a medicinal smell.

Jiang Qingwu was a little suspicious, but when he looked up and saw that the empress dowager drank it smoothly, and it was made by Fu Li himself, he didn't think much about it.

But just as she put the Tremella soup into her mouth, there was a sudden commotion in the palace.

"Who dares to trespass into Fenghe Palace?"

After Nan Xiuye ​​jumped down from the roof with light skills, he was stopped by the Royal Guards. Without wasting any words, he kicked the other party away and raised the token.

"Your Majesty, the golden token, please move aside..."

When the Queen Mother saw Nan Xiuye ​​rushing into the palace, she immediately slammed the table and shouted angrily, "How dare you... Stop him."

The two eunuchs at the door heard the sound and immediately stopped Nan Xiuye.

When Nan Xiuye ​​was stopped, he also saw Jiang Qingwu.

Seeing that she was holding a bowl of Tremella soup, he blurted out in a moment of anxiety, "Qingwu, don't drink that soup..."

Jiang Qingwu was startled and stood up suddenly. Before he could come to his senses, Yan Xiuchen and Jiu Ye rushed in.

Seeing this, the two eunuchs who were blocking the road quickly moved away and knelt down.

"Gu Qing..." Yan Xiuchen rushed towards Jiang Qingwu and knocked the small bowl out of her hand.

"Did you drink? Did you drink the soup..."

Yan Xiuchen asked anxiously. Seeing Jiang Qingwu's expression frozen, he turned around and shouted outside, "Someone, call the imperial physician..."

"No, no... I didn't drink!" Jiang Qingwu stopped Yan Xiuchen and agreed repeatedly, his thoughts gradually becoming clearer.

"Okay, it's good that you didn't drink it." Yan Xiuchen breathed a sigh of relief and murmured with lingering fear.

Then he turned around and looked at Fu Li, took a step forward, raised his hand and slapped him.

With a "bang", the frail woman Fu Li was knocked to the ground.

Then he quickly stood up, knelt down and crawled over, kowtowing repeatedly while crying.

"Your Majesty, I plead guilty. I beg Your Majesty to save Yan Xu. I beg Your Majesty to save Xu'er..."

Jiang Qingwu was suddenly startled when he heard the voice.

Yes, how could Fu Li harm her? There was no grudge between them in the past life and no hatred in this life. Before, she had taken good care of her.

It was the Queen Mother, because of Yan Xu.

As he thought about it, Jiang Qingwu vaguely understood something. With a cold light in his eyes, he turned and looked at the Queen Mother.

"You forced her to do that. What did you do to Yan Xu?"

Seeing that the situation was out of control, the Queen Mother calmly sat on the Phoenix Chair and said, "How dare you! When did I ever force her?"

"Who is so presumptuous!" Yan Xiuchen turned around and roared, looking at the Queen Mother fiercely.

"How dare you give Jiang Qingwu drugs? Do you think I am too kind to you?"

Yan Xiuchen shouted angrily and approached the Queen Mother step by step.

Nan Xiuye ​​looked around anxiously when he saw Yan Xiuchen losing control.

As soon as he ascended the throne, he caused a big disturbance in Fenghe Palace and was disrespectful to the Queen Mother. If word got out, it would probably cause criticism.

"Everyone, step back." Nan Xiuye ​​shouted at the people in and outside the hall.

Seeing that Yan Xiuchen did not refute, everyone left the hall.

Upon seeing this, the Queen Mother also came to her senses instantly, turned around and pointed at Nan Xiuye ​​and scolded him.

"He...he is a man from outside the palace, and he called her by her maiden name in public. You..."

Perhaps it was because Nan Xiuye ​​sent away the servants in the palace, or perhaps he heard the empress dowager's reprimand.

Yan Xiuchen became even more presumptuous, and his voice was a few notches higher than before.

"I heard it. I asked him to come. What does the Queen Mother want?"

"What kind of plan do you have to make Jiang Qingwu drink the poison that will kill her pregnancy?"

"Believe it or not... I can throw you to Xiliang immediately and take my mother back to the palace."

The Queen Mother was frightened by Yan Xiuchen so much that she stepped back again and again, and finally fell down on the phoenix chair with a thud.

Jiang Qingwu behind him was also stunned. He looked at the empress dowager in disbelief, then turned to look at Fu Li who was kneeling on the ground.

"Infertility? Infertility-inducing poison?"

Fu Li nodded while crying, then knelt in front of Jiang Qingwu and grabbed the hem of her skirt.

"Empress... No, Auntie, Miss Jiang..."

"I had no choice. They kidnapped Xu'er. If I didn't listen to them, Xu'er... would have died."

Jiang Qingwu looked at Fu Li kneeling at his feet, crying miserably, and couldn't help but think of the first time he met Fu Li.

Although the eldest prince's mansion was poor and lonely, the family was relatively stable. Fu Li was also very graceful, with the demeanor of a noble family. Now...

If it weren't for her, how could I be in such a mess.

Jiang Qingwu heard Fu Li's crying and his thoughts were instantly pulled back. He hurriedly leaned over to help her.

"I will save him. I will definitely save him..."

"Who took him away? Do you know where he is?"

Fu Li was sobbing, and before she could say anything, Gu Yanbai's voice came from outside the door.

"Found it, it's here..." Jiu Ye came in from outside holding Yan Xu.

Upon seeing this, Fu Li rushed over and hugged Yan Xu in his arms, "Xu'er..."

Gu Yanbai looked at the mother and son who were crying together and walked towards the hall.

"When I rushed over, Jiu Ye was leading people to search the dungeon, and the child was crying in the dungeon."

Hearing this, Jiang Qingwu gestured to Wanyue behind him, "Take them out of the palace."

"Yes, ma'am."

Seeing Fu Li and Yan Xu being taken away, Yan Xiuchen turned and looked at the Queen Mother, his eyes were cold and sharp as a knife.

"I ask you, who told you to do this and why?"

The Queen Mother took a deep breath, stood up fearlessly and said, "No one asked me to do anything."

"From the beginning, I didn't like her."

"If she can't give birth to a child, she won't be qualified to be the queen. When the time comes, I will choose a better one for you..."

"Is it just because of this reason?" Jiang Qingwu looked at the Queen Mother in disbelief.

The Queen Mother sneered and looked at Jiang Qingwu with contempt.

"It is easy to change the country but difficult to change one's nature. You are a military general born into a lowly family. You don't look like a prince even if you put on the dragon robe."

"Do you think that if you pretend to be submissive and pay respect to me, you will behave like a queen?"

"You have a close relationship with a man outside your family and drink all day and night. This is simply absurd. How can a girl like you be the queen?"

Jiang Qingwu sneered when he heard the voice and was so angry that he couldn't speak.

Then his eyes changed, he turned around, drew Jiuye's sword, and walked towards the Queen Mother.

Seeing this, Nan Xiu Ye behind him stepped forward subconsciously.

Yan Xiuchen in front also hurriedly blocked the way, hugged Jiang Qingwu and stopped him.

"Gu Qing, calm down..."

"Yes, Madam, you can't..."

Nan Xiuye ​​and Yan Xiuchen tried to stop her, but Jiang Qingwu pretended not to hear them. With the knife in his hand, he struggled desperately in Yan Xiuchen's arms.

"I am a military general? I am a ruffian? I am absurd?"

"You old witch, I'll let you know what true recklessness and absurdity are."

"This lady... no, this palace, I will kill you today and send you to the grave."
