Reborn to marry the regent and seize the throne as queen

White light appeared in the east, gradually dispelling the silent darkness.

The silent and desolate Corridor Palace was the same as it had been for thousands of days and nights, from the gloomy darkness to the deserted daylight.

Yan Xiuchen had been busy in Chengshu Hall all night, until the light came in from the window, and then he vaguely realized something.

"Zhong Quan...what time is it?"

"Your Majesty... It's just past the hour of Yin, and the ministers have arrived one after another."

"Change clothes and go to court." Yan Xiuchen agreed, stood up and prepared to leave.

Seeing this, Zhong Quan hurried over and said, "Your Majesty, you have been on break for the past two days. This day won't make a difference. You haven't rested for several days."

"Go to bed after the court session..." Yan Xiuchen paused as he spoke.

Looking at the roof of Chengshu Hall opposite the palace, he thought of the letter sent by Jiang Qingwu, and then suddenly remembered something.

"Tell... King Ling An."

"Your Majesty, Prince Ling An entered the palace half an hour ago and is now with the young master in Changle Palace."

Yan Xiuchen nodded gently as he walked out, "Then let him sleep first, and we'll talk about it after court."

"Yes."

"Your Majesty, Aunt Wanyue from Fengxiang Palace requests to see you!"

"Wan Yue? Pass..." Yan Xiuchen paused and looked towards the door.

Wanyue came hurriedly, and only slowed down when she reached Yan Xiuchen, and bowed to salute, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."

"What's wrong with Gu Qing?" Yan Xiuchen walked closer to Wanyue and asked.

"Your Majesty left Fengxiang Palace in disguise last night and has not returned yet. I am worried that something has happened..."

Yan Xiuchen frowned slightly, remembering that he had withdrawn half of the Imperial Guards last night.

If he really encountered the spies and assassins of the king who was purging the palace...

Thinking of this, Yan Xiuchen felt uneasy and turned to leave, but Zhong Quan hurriedly stopped him, "Your Majesty, the court officials have already arrived at the palace..."

"Your Majesty, I'll go look for him." Nan Xiu Ye came hurriedly from the direction of Changle Palace.

"And me!" Gu Yanbai followed Nan Xiuye ​​out, sighed softly, and shook his head, "This girl, hasn't she lost her memory?"

"Disguise...what are you doing?"

Yan Xiuchen looked at the two of them and didn't bother to explain, "Don't worry about anything else for now. She is wearing night clothes. If she leaves the palace, there should be movement at the palace gate."

"She should be in the palace... Xiao Liuzi..."

"Your Majesty, I am here."

"Take your trusted aides from the Yang Palace and wait for King Ling'an's orders."

Yan Xiuchen instructed, and then signaled to Nan Xiuye ​​and Gu Yanbai, "Be quiet, don't alarm anyone. We don't know what tricks this girl is going to play yet."

"Yes, I understand."

After leaving Shangyang Palace, Nan Xiuye ​​sighed thoughtfully, "She was wearing a nightgown..."

"It's already daybreak, and there's no movement anywhere in the palace. No one has noticed, so it must be in a remote place."

Gu Yanbai chuckled and looked at Nan Xiuye ​​in confusion, "How did Achen know that she was wearing a nightgown..."

"What is this girl doing in a nightgown?"

As Gu Yanbai asked, he realized something, "She was wearing a nightgown in the palace..."

Is she going to check herself and her past?

Gu Yanbai's face darkened, and he turned to Gu Yanbai and blurted out, "Let's split up. You are good at Qinggong, so it will be more convenient for you to act alone."

"Wanyue, Xiaoliuzi, take the others and look for it in a deserted place."

"Yes, son."

Gu Yanbai had his own plans and ideas, and he traveled separately because he didn't want Nan Xiuye ​​to know where he was going.

He suspected that Jiang Qingwu was investigating him, so after they separated, he went to Xifeng Palace as soon as possible.

Although Xifeng Palace is also desolate, it is a forbidden area in the palace, and royal guards often patrol nearby.

Gu Yanbai dodged with his light skills, escaped from the palace maids and the imperial guards, and then sneaked straight into Xifeng Palace.

Fortunately, Feng Palace was the same as before, just like the last time he and Yan Xiuchen came here, there were no other signs.

"It seems that this girl is not looking for Xifeng Palace, but may not... be investigating herself."

Gu Yanbai murmured in a low voice, standing in the main hall, looking around, feeling a little more emotional.

"I am really mentally ill. Why would that girl investigate me for no reason, and why would she go to Xifeng Palace for no reason?"

"What's more, she has lost her memory..." Gu Yanbai murmured, then sighed and shook his head.

On the other side, Nan Xiu Ye was searching aimlessly, but when he was near the Langting Palace, a dagger suddenly flew from the air.

The dagger was thrown with insufficient force and without much skill.

Nan Xiuye ​​reacted quickly and grabbed the handle of the dagger at the moment of quick dodging.

Looking at the figure flashing past the corner of the wall in the distance, Nan Xiuye ​​chased it two steps, but suddenly realized something.

Looking at the note on the tip of the knife, he quickly opened the letter.

[Jiang Qingwu is in the Southern Corridor Palace! ]

Without bothering to chase the figure, Nan Xiuye ​​turned around and headed straight towards Langting Palace.

When Nan Xiuye ​​found the house, Jiang Qingwu was still lying on the ruins.

"Qingwu..." Nan Xiuye ​​saw Jiang Qingwu in black clothes and rushed over hurriedly.

After helping the person up, he hurriedly checked her neck pulse, then took her wrist and took her pulse.

After making sure that Jiang Qingwu was fine, he pulled off the black veil on her face.

He looked fine and didn't look like he had suffered any serious injuries.

Looking around, everything was empty and in a mess, but there was no trace of the mysterious woman or the child's body, as if they had never appeared.

For Nan Xiuye, there is nothing else.

"Qingwu... Qingwu, wake up..." Nan Xiuye ​​called softly, and seeing that Jiang Qingwu did not respond, he immediately picked him up.

In the bedroom of Fengxiang Palace, when Yan Xiuchen rushed over, Imperial Physician Li was treating Jiang Qingwu in the bedroom.

Gu Yanbai and Nan Xiuye ​​were sitting on the couch in the side hall. When they saw Yan Xiuchen coming, Nan Xiuye ​​hurriedly stood up and saluted, "Your Majesty."

"Get up..." Yan Xiuchen echoed, looking towards the dormitory, "How is she?"

"Imperial Doctor Li is still checking her, but she should be fine. I took her pulse and she doesn't seem to be injured, just knocked unconscious."

Yan Xiuchen frowned slightly and walked closer to Nan Xiuye, "Where did you find her? Who knocked her out?"

Nan Xiuye ​​said nothing and handed the dagger and the note to Yan Xiuchen.

"Someone delivered this letter to me with a dagger near the Langting Palace..."

“I was in a rush to save Qingwu, so I didn’t chase after her, but I saw… she looked like a woman.”

"When we found Qingwu in Langting Palace, she had already been knocked unconscious."

Gu Yanbai listened and secretly clenched the flute in his hand. Then he sneered and looked up at Yan Xiuchen.

"Langting Palace? Humph, Ah Chen, you can't forget what Langting Palace is, right?"

Nan Xiuye ​​looked at Gu Yanbai in some confusion, then at Yan Xiuchen.

Yan Xiuchen was thinking about something with a serious look on his face, his brows were furrowed and his eyes were gloomy.

"Of course I remember, Langting Palace... the cold palace where Queen Mengjia lived!"

Queen Mongia?!

Is she the Queen Mengjia who went mad, kidnapped Yan Xiuchen and Gu Yanbai, and forced them to drink poison?

Yan Xiuchen and Gu Yanbai said that they were kidnapped by Queen Mengjia when they were children.

It was Gu Yanbai who made Yan Xiuchen drink the poison and saved his life. Since then, he has had heart and lung problems and developed a chronic illness.

She was actually in the cold palace where Yan Xiuchen and the others were kidnapped.

But who is that crazy woman? And who is that child?

Jiang Qingwu had changed her clothes and was coming out of the dormitory. When she heard Yan Xiuchen's words, she froze and her thoughts became confused.

Until Yan Xiuchen's voice outside interrupted her thoughts.

"Let's not worry about why Gu Qing went to Langting Palace. Who knocked her out? And why did she lead you to rescue her?"

Hearing this, Jiang Qingwu could no longer hold back and walked out, heading straight towards Yan Xiuchen, "Your Majesty, weren't you the one who knocked me out?"
