Reborn to marry the regent and seize the throne as queen

Yan Xue felt cold and icy all over, as if she had suddenly fallen into an ice cellar.

There was not a trace of blood on his pale face.

Jiang Qingwu seemed to have realized something in his heart, and his eyes couldn't help but turn red.

At the age of fourteen, he was reluctant to break this beautiful flower that was in full bloom, but it was broken by King Suqing.

My heart is filled with hatred, resentment and helplessness.

"Don't talk, Yan Xiuchen will get the antidote back for you, it's okay..."

"Nancun..." Yan Xue spoke in a low voice, as if she was trying to muster up all her strength to spit out a few words.

"I told King Suqing about those eight families. You can meet them in private..."

"Only the King of Purge would... send someone to kill and silence the witnesses."

"They died because of me."

"Also, Langting Palace, I was the one who knocked you out..." Yan Xue said with a bitter smile, "You were right..."

"He said that as long as you investigate the past, as long as you... have any trace of recovering your memory, he wants me to... get rid of you."

"I wanted to take action. I wanted to avenge my mother and the Shen family..."

"But I can't bear to do it." Yan Xue said while crying.

Then he seemed to remember something and looked up at Nan Xiuye, "Uncle Wang, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have hurt you."

"But if I don't agree to him, he won't save my uncle and cousin..."

Gu Yanbai stood up with a helpless look on his face, and shouted with a hint of rebuke, "Why save them?"

"When they wanted to rebel, it was Emperor Xuanhe, your father, who they rebelled against."

"They are your enemies."

Yan Xue cried even more sadly after listening to Gu Yanbai's words, "But... they are also my relatives."

"My grandpa and his family were very kind to me. How could I ignore them?"

"Just like... Jiang Qingwu can't possibly ignore the Jiang family."

"How can they be the same..." Gu Yanbai scolded, but before he could finish his words, Jiang Qingwu interrupted him, "Gu Yanbai, stop talking, carry her over."

Gu Yanbai sighed softly, leaned over and picked the person up, and Yan Xue suddenly spit out blood.

This time, the blood he vomited was black, and he gradually lost consciousness. He muttered something, but it was no longer clear.

"Yanxue, Yanxue, wake up..." Jiang Qingwu shouted repeatedly and leaned close to her ear.

"Jiang, Jiang Qingwu, that woman... is in the Queen Mother's Palace..."

"Her name is...Fang Wen."

Jiang Qingwu slowly withdrew his body, and Gu Yanbai directly carried the person in.

Jiang Qingwu froze in place. When he came to his senses, he heard Gu Yanbai's shouting from inside the room.

"Yan Xue, Yan Xue..."

When Jiang Qingwu hurriedly followed, Imperial Physician Li was shaking his head beside the bed, then turned around and knelt towards Jiang Qingwu.

"Your Majesty, the Fourth Princess... has passed away."

Jiang Qingwu exhaled in one breath from his throat, as if he couldn't believe it, and his eyes were bloodshot.

"She is only...only fourteen years old...she is only..." Jiang Qingwu murmured, feeling as if something was blocking his heart.

In a rage, he grabbed a porcelain bottle beside him and smashed it out.

……

Yan Xiuchen chased the dark shadow on the roof, shuttling through the palace filled with the commotion of the Imperial Guards.

Yan Xiuchen’s lightness skills were not bad, so he didn’t have to struggle too much to catch up with King Suqing.

However, Prince Suqing had no intention of leaving the palace, and led Yan Xiuchen all the way to the vicinity of Xifeng Palace.

Yan Xiuchen also realized something, and before King Suqing went to Xifeng Palace, he flew over to stop him.

King Suqing was dressed in a black robe, which was neither luxurious nor exquisite, but more like an ordinary common people's cloth gown.

But Yan Xiuchen was wearing a satin brocade dress, a golden crown and jade belt, a jade pendant on his waist, and a ring on his hand.

Even the buttons on her clothes were made of top-grade white jade.

"You are such an old man, useless now. Now it's so easy for you to catch up with me."

Yan Xiuchen calmed down and looked quietly at King Suqing who was not too far away.

"It's time for us to talk."

"Yes, it is indeed time to have a good talk. This place is quite quiet."

Prince Suqing muttered, looking around and towards the direction of Heebong Palace.

"After turning this corner, we will reach Xifeng Palace."

"The instigator... everything started from here."

Yan Xiuchen looked at King Suqing impatiently and blurted out, "Yes, it started from here."

“But it didn’t start with Gu Yanbai, it didn’t start with Nan Xiuye, and it certainly didn’t start with... Yan Xue.”

"Gu Yanbai, Nan Xiuye, Yan Xue..." King Suqing repeated word for word, and then his voice became a little colder.

"They all deserve to die."

"Nan Xiuye ​​is your son, so you can't tolerate him?"

"What son? His existence is just to remind me of my humble status. I have never acknowledged him."

King Suqing shouted, and then snorted coldly, "A lowly person is not worthy of standing in this position today."

"I promised you not to kill him, but for him, you didn't care about humiliating me."

"How could I allow a lowly evildoer to inherit my name?"

"Lowly? How is he lowly?" Yan Xiuchen argued and took two steps closer to him.

"If he is lowly, then my status is not much higher."

"My mother was just a concubine."

"But your mother comes from a prominent family. She is the legitimate daughter of a great master in the family, and the only legitimate daughter."

King Suqing said this, followed by a scornful smile, pacing back and forth in front of Yan Xiuchen, looking nonchalant.

"And Gu Yanbai, he must die. If you hadn't deliberately delayed him and prevented him from helping you cure the Heart-Eating Gu poison, I would have killed him long ago."

Yan Xiuchen felt a little dazed as he looked at King Suqing who was only concerned with killing people.

In his previous life, Gu Yanbai died early, and King Suqing's power disappeared long ago.

But now, with only Gu Yanbai left, he seemed like a different person.

"You know, there are so many people who want you dead."

King Suqing seemed a little surprised and turned to look at Yan Xiuchen, "Does that include you?"

"How many people did you kill? Do you remember?"

Yan Xiuchen stood firmly not far away, looking at King Suqing quietly, with a cold air all over his body.

"Bai Ahsheng, Zhuang asked again, and now it's Yan Xue again, so Qing will not let you go."

"And Nan Xiuye, you treated him harshly and humiliated him, killed his mother, killed his confidants, and tried to kill him time and time again..."

"Now, you don't even let Yan Xue go...Isn't she yours?"

"She is only fourteen years old. Even Gu Qing was reluctant to kill her, but you are willing to do it."

King Suqing stared at Yan Xiuchen with anger in his eyes, and snorted coldly, "I'm not questioning you, but you actually come to question me."

"If I don't take action, are you going to let Yan Xue tell the truth and tell about that woman?"

"You knew that Jiang Qingwu was investigating the past, and she had already found out about Langting Palace, but you did nothing."

"You didn't stop her, and even allowed her to continue investigating. What exactly do you want to do?"

Every word the King of Suqing spoke was filled with anger as he approached Yan Xiuchen step by step, and even his voice sounded like a knife.

"Have you forgotten what happened back then?"

"If you have forgotten, let me remind you, it was you!"

"You personally led people to... encircle and suppress the Gu family!

"It was you who... fed Jiang Qingwu the poison yourself."
