Reborn to marry the regent and seize the throne as queen

On September 26, the Fuye tribe was defeated and almost destroyed.

The king of Sang State ascended the throne and issued an imperial decree to announce it to the world.

[I have inherited the destiny of heaven and now ascend the throne as emperor. I will destroy Fuya and defend the territory. With the help of the Great Yan army, I will consolidate the country and ensure its security.]

[Our neighboring country, Dayan, is known for its virtues, good governance and harmonious people. Although our two countries are thousands of miles apart, we share a deep friendship and similar aspirations. I hereby issue this decree to conclude an alliance with Dayan and establish diplomatic relations.]

【Since then, the two countries have helped each other and shared weal and woe. There has been no war and trade has been smooth. The people living on the border have lived and worked in peace and contentment, sharing the blessing of peace.】

This is it.

……

Outside Sheng'an City in the eastern border, on the edge of the national border, the armies of Dayan and Sang Kingdom formed a joint camp.

The night fell, lights were on, and outside the layers of military tents, fireworks suddenly burst into the sky, illuminating every corner of the military camp.

Hearing the sound of fireworks, Jiang Qingwu, dressed in green, ran out of the tent quickly.

Jiang Qingwu looked at the fireworks blooming in the sky and waved to the guards not far away, "Who set off the fireworks?"

"Your Highness, it's General Sang Guoan."

"General An said that he was ordered by the King of Sang to send fireworks to the Queen and His Majesty to celebrate the great victory."

Jiang Qingwu heard the voice and chuckled, "Gu Yanbai? He ascended the throne today, and he still has time to send fireworks?"

"These fireworks come at the right time. He has ascended the throne and now has won a great victory in the battle with Fuye. Of course, we need to celebrate."

Yan Xiuchen followed out from the tent behind him and took Jiang Qingwu's cloak and wrapped it around her.

"I really want to go to the Sang Kingdom Palace to see what it's like when he ascends the throne."

Jiang Qingwu said this, then he remembered something, turned to look at Yan Xiuchen and rolled his eyes in annoyance.

"If you hadn't stopped me, I would have wanted him to go back to Sang Country when I was in Sanshui City."

Yan Xiuchen's eyes changed color, and he said in a panic, "It seems that it was indeed a wise move for me to come all the way from the capital."

As he spoke, he sighed and shook his head, "If I were only in the palace, I would miss you so much that you would run away with him."

"Oh, I'm going to run with him? Don't you want to run with him?"

"I just arrived in Sanshui City a few days late, and you two have been inseparable like a young couple."

Jiang Qingwu turned away unhappily, "If it weren't for your status as the emperor, you would be sitting in Gu Yanbai's bedroom right now."

"What do you mean by young couple? Be careful with your words..."

"Your Majesty..." A shout came from a distance. It was Jiang Qingbai and Huanyue.

He took off his armor, put on casual clothes, and came towards Jiang Qingwu and the others.

"Your Majesty, Madam..."

"No need to be polite, what's wrong?"

The two of them looked at each other, hesitantly looking at Jiang Qingwu and Yan Xiuchen.

Jiang Qingwu looked at the two of them in confusion, and asked with a smile on his face, "What's wrong? Are you getting engaged?"

"No." Jiang Qingbai shouted nervously, which gave Jiang Qingwu a chill.

Huan Yue, who was standing by, tilted her head slightly and glared at Jiang Qingbai. Before she could say anything, Jiang Qingwu asked again, "So... a direct marriage?"

“No, no, no…” Huanyue shook her head hesitantly, then bowed and saluted, “It’s General Xiao Su and the Marquis who have set up a banquet in the playground. Please invite Your Majesty and Your Majesty to come over.”

"So that's what it is. Why are you so nervous?" Jiang Qingwu breathed a sigh of relief and shook his head gently.

"Well, drinking in the military camp is a taboo... Your Majesty..."

"I agree to this, let's go!" Yan Xiuchen echoed Huanyue and then pulled Jiang Qingwu over.

When he was about to leave, he suddenly turned around and looked at the two of them, "Today is a good day, I will grant you a marriage."

As soon as Yan Xiuchen finished speaking, the two of them subconsciously looked at each other. Without waiting for them to speak, Yan Xiuchen pulled Jiang Qingwu and walked away.

……

There were dozens of tables on the large open space in the military camp playground, mostly filled with wine and meat.

Those present included not only generals of the Great Yan State such as Jiang Ruhai and Su Wenli, but also several generals of the Sang State.

Although they wore different uniforms, they could communicate with each other without any obstacles. At first glance, they looked like soldiers from the same battalion.

When everyone saw Yan Xiuchen and the others coming, they saluted in unison.

"I, your humble servant, would like to pay my respects to His Majesty and Her Majesty the Queen..."

"Generals of the Sang Kingdom, pay respect to His Majesty the Great Yan and the Queen..."

"No need to be polite, we are on a march, soldiers don't need to be polite, sit down..."

As Yan Xiuchen was speaking, he pulled Jiang Qingwu to sit down, when a chaotic sound of horse hooves was heard in the distance.

Looking from afar, I saw a team of more than 20 people riding horses towards me.

The military camp has layers of guards and generals. If they arrive here as if no one is around and still no one reports, it must not be an enemy attack.

Everyone was surprised, and when they looked in the direction of the sound, all the horses stopped abruptly, and Gu Yanbai, who was walking in the front, had already arrived.

"You are celebrating here, how can you leave me out?"

Upon seeing this, everyone came forward and knelt down except Yan Xiuchen and Jiang Qingwu.

"I, your humble general, would like to pay my respects to the King of Sang. Long live the King..."

After Gu Yanbai stood still, he glanced at everyone and then moved his gaze to Jiang Qingwu and Yan Xiuchen.

"It's only been fifteen days since we last met in Sanshui City, and you don't recognize me anymore?"

I really don't recognize him anymore. When we met again in Sanshui City, he still looked like an elegant and noble gentleman. But now...

He wore a brocade robe with alternating colors of gold and ink, a black fox fur cloak, a flawless white jade waist pendant, a golden crown and a jade belt. He looked majestic and dignified, truly like a ruler of a country.

"You ascended the throne today, why are you here?" Yan Xiuchen asked puzzledly, looking at the person behind him.

"With only these people, you are not afraid of being attacked. The remnants of the Fuye tribe have not yet..."

"Brother...you're worrying too much. There are millions of soldiers stationed here. Who would dare to do that?"

Jiang Qingwu listened to what the two were saying and his thoughts were brought back to reality.

You really care about me, am I redundant?!

Jiang Qingwu was complaining in her heart, but before she could come to her senses, Gu Yanbai came towards her with a smile on his face.

In front of all the generals and Yan Xiuchen, he lowered his voice.

"I know you want to see me as the king, so I came here specially to show you."

Others may not have heard what Gu Yanbai said, but Yan Xiuchen who was standing next to him heard it and his expression changed instantly.

Then he coughed twice and changed the subject, "Everyone, get up and take a seat."

Having said that, Yan Xiuchen took Jiang Qingwu away and headed towards the banquet.

Seeing this, Gu Yanbai waved his hand at Gu Ming behind him with a sly smile, "Go, take out my gift."

"Yes, Your Majesty..."

Soon, sky lanterns rose up in the dark sky, lighting up the entire sky bit by bit.

"Kongming Lantern, it's a Kongming Lantern..."

Someone shouted in surprise, and Jiang Qingwu couldn't help but stand up. Just as she was about to say something, she saw Gu Yanbai looking at her with a smile.

"Did you ask someone to set it off? This is a military camp. What if it falls and catches fire?"

Gu Yanbai smiled and shook his head, explaining seriously, "They are all made of fireproof paper, so they won't burn."

"I made them specially for you."

Jiang Qingwu heard this and nodded gently, "That's good, I'll go put it there too..."

Looking at Jiang Qingwu's hurried back, Yan Xiuchen couldn't help but stand up and chase after him a few steps.

Then he sighed helplessly, turned to look at Gu Yanbai, and lowered his voice.

"You're sending me fireworks and sky lanterns, and you're wearing something so ostentatious. Are you planning to snatch them from me?"

Gu Yanbai chuckled upon hearing the voice, and came over with wine glasses in hand. He handed one to Yan Xiuchen, took the other in his hand, and clinked glasses with him gently.

"Brother, who are you robbing? Who are you robbing from? You have to make this clear!"

Yan Xiuchen looked at Gu Yanbai in surprise. Just as he was wondering, Jiang Qingwu came running back with a Kongming lantern.

Seeing the two standing side by side and looking at each other, he couldn't help but pause, "Gu Yanbai, are you... going to snatch Yan Xiuchen from me?"

Jiang Qingwu murmured, and then he stepped between the two of them, "I picked the best looking one, let's light the lanterns and make a wish."

"Okay!" Gu Yanbai and Yan Xiuchen said in unison.

Then they looked at each other, put down their wine glasses, and surrounded Jiang Qingwu.

Looking at the rising Kongming lantern, Jiang Qingwu clasped his hands together and closed his eyes.

In past lives and present lives, she has experienced life and death several times. She wanted to recover all that she had lost, but in the end she could not compose a perfect life.

She lost Xing'er, who grew up with her, and implicated Zhuang Youwen, who had helped her for many years. Many innocent people died in vain, and she also lost Bai Asheng and Nan Xiuye, whom she cherished most, forever.

Perhaps in different reincarnations, they have been reborn, changed and escaped from their painful lives, and have a different future than before.

Just like her...

"What wish did you make?" Yan Xiuchen asked in a low voice.

Gu Yanbai who was standing by couldn't help but come over and said, "Yeah, what's your wish? Tell me about it."

Jiang Qingwu came back to his senses, smiled, and clasped his hands together, "May the world be peaceful and the people be healthy!"

“May the deceased be reborn in happiness, and the living be free from illness and disaster!”

……

Jiang Qingwu: "Gu Yanbai, there is something I have always wanted to ask you. How did you escape from the cave in Chongling?"

Gu Yanbai: “Secret!”
