Reborn to marry the regent and seize the throne as queen

Jiang Qingwu's heart skipped a beat and he looked at Yan Xiuchen in surprise, and Gu Yanbai felt the same.

Lu Chen was also a little surprised. She looked up and was about to refute, but she bumped into Yan Xiuchen's terrifying face and cold eyes.

She was so frightened that she couldn't speak for a moment, "Yes... I obey your command."

"Jiuhan Jiuye, send your mother to Fenghe Palace, and come back in half an hour..."

"Yes, godfather."

After the two of them and Lu Chen left, Jiang Qingwu also sighed heavily, thinking about something with a worried look on his face.

Seeing this, Gu Yanbai turned around and angrily yelled at Yan Xiuchen, "You are really amazing. I told you to stay and you stayed. All those women were sent to your bed, but you couldn't care about any of them."

“Nonsense.” Yan Xiuchen glanced at Gu Yanbai coldly, and when he turned to look at Jiang Qingwu, he couldn’t help but show some helplessness and moved closer, “Don’t worry, I…”

When Jiang Qingwu heard Yan Xiuchen's words, she came back to her senses instantly. For some reason, she didn't want to listen any further and immediately changed the subject.

“Having offended Lu Chen today, what should Wan Yue do?”

"I think she's not someone you can easily mess with. If Wanyue marries her, she won't be bullied by her mother-in-law, right?"

Yan Xiuchen was choked by his words, and Gu Yanbai also frowned, looking at Jiang Qingwu in disbelief.

"You are still worried about whether Wanyue will be bullied by her mother-in-law. First, worry about whether you will be bullied by your mother-in-law."

"Empress Dowager Zhong is not the same as before. Even if the previous one killed her, Yan Xiuchen would be powerless to stop her."

"You saw this Empress Dowager Zhong when you were a child."

Jiang Qingwu was suddenly startled, and his thoughts were involuntarily pulled back to his childhood.

"You forgot that she is aloof and cold, and behaves indifferently. When you and I were playing in her palace, she was always in a bad mood."

"If it weren't for my mother's help and shelter back then, how could I protect you?" Yan Xiuchen couldn't help but speak.

Gu Yanbai knew in his heart that Queen Mother Zhong only appeared to be cold and difficult to get along with, but in fact she was warm and kind at heart.

Otherwise, in Yan Xiuchen's palace back then, Concubine Zhong had the final say. If it weren't for her help and protection, I wouldn't have been able to stay safely in Yan Xiuchen's place.

Despite this, Gu Yanbai still smiled at Jiang Qingwu with a hint of sarcasm, "See, he didn't agree before I even said anything."

"after……"

"Shut up!" Yan Xiuchen blurted out, interrupting Gu Yanbai.

Jiang Qingwu came to his senses immediately after hearing that. "Well, actually, I'm still more worried about Wanyue. If she wants to marry into the Lu family in the future..."

Wan Yue heard the voice and spoke anxiously, "Miss, who said that I'm going to get married? I won't get married. I'll stay by your side. Who can bully me?"

"You are talking nonsense." Jiang Qingwu shouted softly, stood up and walked towards Wanyue.

Just as she was about to speak, Wan Yue interrupted her and said, "Miss, you should think about those concubines."

"Of these ten, at least half of them must stay. This palace will be really lively in the future."

Although Wan Yue's voice was not loud, Gu Yanbai and Yan Xiuchen still heard it.

Jiang Qingwu was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses, subconsciously looked at Yan Xiuchen, and then smiled, "Let's not talk about this."

"By the way, I heard that the court officials surrounded the Shangyang Palace. What's going on?"

Yan Xiuchen reacted, stood up and walked towards Jiang Qingwu, "The court officials are still in Shangyang Palace, Xiu Jin is there."

"I have already called your father and the left prime minister to the palace. I will also go there."

"Okay, then go ahead. I'll go to Chuxiu Palace later..."

Yan Xiuchen looked at Jiang Qingwu in some surprise, and when he saw that she acted as if nothing had happened, he felt even more uneasy.

"Are you...are you okay?"

"It's okay. I haven't had breakfast yet. Go do your thing. I'll go eat something."

His eyes were bright and there was a smile on his lips, he certainly didn't look like anything was wrong.

But how could it be possible that there would be no disturbance at all?

"Okay, I have my own plans for the concubine, you don't have to mind..."

Jiang Qingwu nodded and gestured to Yan Xiuchen to leave.

Yan Xiuchen sighed and walked towards Gu Yanbai hesitantly, "Come with me."

"Where?"

"Take off your handcuffs."

Hearing the voice, Gu Yanbai's eyes lit up and he quickly stood up and followed him.

Yan Xiuchen hurried out of Fengxiang Palace and then waved to Zhong Quan beside him.

Seeing this, Zhong Quan moved closer to Yan Xiuchen, "Your Majesty."

"Do something for me. I want those women to get out of the palace tomorrow..."

……

Jiang Qingwu looked at the people who left one after another, then slowly sat down on the phoenix chair.

His eyes were gloomy and his expression was dim, as if the sun was covered by dark clouds and had lost its brilliance.

"Girl... don't be sad. Didn't His Majesty say that he has plans for those concubines?"

Jiang Qingwu smiled bitterly and sighed thoughtfully, "I know, I was just thinking that after avoiding the Queen Mother's previous attempts to stuff people around her, now the Queen Mother is sending concubines."

"I'm afraid there will be a second and third time in the future."

"How many times have Yan Xiuchen been able to block it? How many times have I been able to block it..."

As he spoke, Jiang Qingwu took a deep breath and perked up a bit.

"But if you reach the mountain, there will always be a way out. If you reach the bridge, you will find a way out. If the sky falls, I will hold it up."

"Let's go, change clothes, and go to Puling Temple."

……

Autumn has arrived. Although it is not bitterly cold, Puling Temple is located at a high place and surrounded by dense forests, so it usually gets cold earlier.

Jiang Qingwu was holding two swords in his hands and wearing a cloak, and he was only accompanied by Wanyue.

Puling Temple was very quiet, just like the last time I came here, with only a few nuns there.

Knowing Jiang Qingwu's identity and purpose, the host immediately took Jiang Qingwu to the courtyard in the back mountain.

"This courtyard is the best in Puling Temple. The maid who came that day said that she wanted to find a good place for this noble man."

Jiang Qingwu knew this because she was the one who personally arranged for someone to send her here, and she also specifically instructed them to treat her well.

At that time, she only felt that time had passed, and she was not the mastermind. Moreover, Gu Xiyan Xiuchen had been here for many years, and he was old and sick, so he came to Puling Temple.

Not knowing how long he could live, I began to feel pity for him.

But who would have thought that she would not give in and kept someone to harm her and Gu Yanbai.

……

The yard is relatively clean and the house is relatively warm. It is more like a Buddhist temple than a house.

Just like in the palace, he wore Buddhist robes, knelt before the Buddha and fiddled with the Buddhist beads.

Jiang Qingwu suppressed the anger in his heart, took off his cloak and walked towards him.

"I am so stupid. I was so soft-hearted that I let you go out of the palace despite all the hardships."

"I'm very curious. Yan Chong is not good to you. There is no love between us, nor do we have both sons and daughters. He even sent someone to poison you."

"Why did you kill Gu Yanbai and me for him?"

"He only poisoned me but didn't kill me. Doesn't that explain the problem?"

What a talent! There are such idiots in the world.

Just poisoning, no murder? How ridiculous.

Jiang Qingwu found it ridiculous. He glanced at the Queen Mother with disdain and shook his head repeatedly.

"I didn't expect that at your age, you would be so stupid and still loyal to a man who doesn't care about you at all."

"It's not that I'm loyal to him, it's just... I'm used to it."

"That was his intention. He wanted me to be poisoned and to be left out so that he could have a backup plan."

"His greatest wish and regret in this life is to kill Gu Yanbai."

"Now that I am still alive, I will certainly help him."
