Reborn to marry the regent and seize the throne as queen

Jiang Qingwu's heart skipped a beat when he heard Gu Yanbai's cold voice.

It doesn’t matter what happened in the past, but now the empress dowager is here, and the ladies are here too. If he just barges in like this, he will definitely cause trouble.

Jiang Qingwu looked at Gu Yanbai and was about to open her mouth to stop her, but Gu Yanbai walked through the other concubines and helped her up from the ground.

"What is this imperial decree, what is this selected concubine, what is this choosing a day for the selection of concubines?"

"The Queen Mother sent you back just to get beaten? Don't think that I won't beat you just because you are the mother of Lu Jiuhan and the others."

Mother? Lu Chen?!

Jiang Qingwu suddenly realized and looked at Lu Chenshi in astonishment.

"You are... the mother of Jiuhan and Jiuye?"

Lu Chen suppressed her anger towards Gu Yanbai and bowed to Jiang Qingwu, "Yes, I am indeed the biological mother of Lu Jiuhan and Lu Jiuye."

If she is really the biological mother of the Lu brothers, then why would she return to the palace on behalf of the Queen Mother?

That Wanyue...

Jiang Qingwu was confused and subconsciously turned to look at Wanyue beside him.

After seeing this, Gu Yanbai understood something and pulled Jiang Qingwu to his side.

“Look at what she is doing. Lu Chenshi can’t make the decision on Lu Jiuhan’s marriage.”

"Don't forget, Yan Xiuchen is Lu Jiuhan's godfather. He is both a father and a king. It is not up to a lonely widow like her to make the decision."

"If you are offended, you are offended."

As Gu Yanbai spoke, he snatched the imperial edict from Lu Chen's hand and raised his hand to throw it away.

"How dare you? This is the Queen Mother's decree. No matter who you are, you cannot be disrespectful to the Queen Mother of Dayan..."

Gu Yanbai held the imperial edict and stood there in a daze for a moment. Seeing this, Jiang Qingwu hurried forward.

"What are you doing? Do you really want to receive an imperial edict? What imperial edict do you want to receive?" Gu Yanbai dodged and held up the imperial edict and refused to give it to Jiang Qingwu.

When the two people were arguing, a loud shout was suddenly heard.

"His Majesty has arrived..." Zhong Quan's shout drowned out the noise in the hall.

Jiang Qingwu couldn't help but freeze in place in a daze.

In the past, her Fengxiang Palace had no rules and regulations, and no one had ever informed her of this. Now that she was called out like this, people were a little surprised.

"Your Majesty, long live His Majesty..." Everyone in the hall was kneeling on the ground, only Jiang Qingwu and Gu Yanbai stood upright.

Jiang Qingwu looked at Yan Xiuchen who walked in and the guards stationed at the door, and couldn't help but come back to his senses.

Seeing the people kneeling on the ground beside her and just when she was thinking about bowing, Gu Yanbai grabbed her.

"What are you doing? Like those thousands of other women?"

Gu Yanbai held the imperial edict in one hand, grabbed Jiang Qingwu's arm with the other, and stared straight at Yan Xiuchen.

Yan Xiuchen sighed softly and said helplessly, "There are not thousands of women."

As he said that, Yan Xiuchen snatched the imperial edict from Gu Yanbai's hand and threw it out of the hall. He then grabbed Jiang Qingwu's arm and pulled him to his side.

The imperial edict was thrown out of the palace, looking extremely embarrassed.

Lu Chen opened her mouth, but in the end she didn't dare to say anything.

Gu Yanbai watched this scene, his hands paused in the air, and he couldn't help but secretly raised the corners of his lips and murmured in a low voice, "You are sensible."

"Everyone, get up." Yan Xiuchen agreed lightly, glanced at the beauties in the hall, and gestured to Zhong Quan who was not far away.

"Zhong Quan, send these people out of the palace and place them in... the inn."

"I've found out where they got it from. I'll pay for it and send them back."

"Yes..." Zhong Quan just agreed, and Lu Chen hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down, "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother specifically ordered me to come here to convey a message to Your Majesty."

"The Queen Mother said that if the concubine does not enter the palace, she will return to her fiefdom and serve as a concubine for the rest of her life, and the harem will be controlled by you and the Queen."

Gu Yanbai frowned and sneered, "She means that if the concubines don't enter the palace, then she won't enter the palace either?"

"Exactly."

"Then let her go back to her fiefdom." Gu Yanbai blurted out.

When I turned to look at Yan Xiuchen, Yan Xiuchen also had a gloomy expression on his face.

This is a difficult problem to deal with, as the entire Dayan knows that the Queen Mother is returning to the capital and the palace.

If we go to meet her here and turn back, it will be useless.

But how could he compromise and keep these beauties?

Seeing Yan Xiuchen hesitating and embarrassed with a frown on his face, Jiang Qingwu hurried forward and suddenly smiled.

"What's the big deal? The palace is so big, can't it accommodate a few girls?"

"Wanyue, Xiaoluzi, clean up the Chuxiu Palace and place all the concubines."

"Girl..." Wanyue came over and whispered, wanting to persuade her, but the next moment, Yan Xiuchen suddenly spoke.

"Just follow the Queen's wishes and move to Chuxiu Palace."

"Yes, I'll do it right away." Zhong Quan agreed and took the concubine out.

Jiang Qingwu didn't expect Yan Xiuchen to agree so readily, and the same went for Gu Yanbai, who rushed towards Yan Xiuchen in one brisk step.

"You...you really dare to leave them here?"

"Are you crazy? What did you say at the beginning? You kept them here. Do you think they are good-looking, young and beautiful?"

Yan Xiuchen rolled his eyes, turned around and looked at Jiang Qingwu, and when he saw that Jiang Qingwu remained silent, his heart couldn't help but tighten.

But it was difficult to say anything now, so he just turned around and glared at Gu Yanbai.

"Jiuhan Jiuye, come in." Yan Xiuchen shouted and turned around to sit on the phoenix chair.

After the two entered the door, they subconsciously looked at Lu Chenshi.

"Don't bow, just meet your mother." Yan Xiuchen agreed and pulled Jiang Qingwu to sit aside.

Jiang Qingwu looked a little dull, but still very calm. He sat obediently beside Yan Xiuchen, as if nothing had happened.

When Jiu Han and Jiu Ye heard Yan Xiu Chen's words, they turned around and knelt down towards Lu Chenshi, "Son greets mother..."

The reunion of mother and son was naturally deeply touching, but Jiang Qingwu was thinking about something.

Gu Yanbai also sat aside angrily and put his feet directly on the table.

Gu Yanbai was used to being unruly, and the entire palace knew about it. The emperor indulged her and no one cared.

However, after Lu Chen recovered from her shock, she saw what Gu Yanbai was doing and turned to walk towards Yan Xiuchen, "Your Majesty, this Young Master Gu is too presumptuous..."

Yan Xiuchen raised his hand to stop Lu Chenshi, and then agreed, "The Queen Mother will be going to the capital in the next two days. It's really a long way to go back."

"She wanted to keep the concubine, and the Queen and I did so. We also ask her to enter the palace as soon as possible."

"Yes, I will inform the Queen Mother."

"Okay, there are a lot of things going on in the palace these two days, Jiuhan and Jiuye don't have much time to accompany you, you should move into Fenghe Palace first and take care of things for the Queen Mother."

Upon hearing this, Lu Chen bowed to Yan Xiuchen and said, "Yes, I will obey your order."

Yan Xiuchen nodded and leaned forward. "By the way, you haven't been in the palace much. There are many rules in this palace, but I only ask you to follow one rule."

"This rule is that the queen has the final say on everything."
