Reborn to marry the regent and seize the throne as queen

Jiang Qingwu stumbled and was trapped in Yan Xiuchen's arms.

She wanted to resist, but she didn't expect Yan Xiuchen to hold her hands tightly, preventing her from struggling.

"You...you bully me because I'm not as good as you in martial arts."

"Heh, you're still bullying me because my legs are crippled and I can't move around easily." Yan Xiuchen sneered and looked up at Jiuhan.

Jiuhan suddenly reacted and immediately left the room.

"I have told you so many times that you are not allowed to have anything to do with Yan Lin anymore."

"You care so much about him, or do you care that I am his abandoned wife?"

Jiang Qingwu shouted angrily, and when Yan Xiuchen was caught off guard, he pushed his hand away and slapped him.

In order to dodge the palm, Yan Xiuchen swung his fan and hit Jiang Qingwu on the wrist, knocking him to the ground and pulling him into his arms.

Jiang Qingwu instantly collapsed into Yan Xiuchen's arms. In panic and surprise, she looked up and met his gaze.

The moment their eyes met, Jiang Qingwu's head buzzed as if he had been struck by lightning.

The resentment and anger in my heart disappeared instantly.

"Yes, I care. Every time you mention him, I will regret it."

"I regret not...taking you away from me one day earlier."

Although Yan Xiuchen's voice was harsh, there was a faint light in his deep pupils.

It's like a lingering affection that's entangled in circles, seemingly able to captivate and make people fall deeply in love with it.

Jiang Qingwu, Jiang Qingwu...

This guy is old, has a bad temper, and is overbearing and domineering. Are you just going to calm down like that?

So easy to appease?

Is it... just because she's good-looking?

"Have you seen enough? This king... is so beautiful?"

Yan Xiuchen's lips curled up slightly and he moved closer to Jiang Qingwu.

"You are not allowed to compare him... with this king."

"You, you, you...let me go..."

Jiang Qingwu suddenly came to his senses and struggled a bit, but Yan Xiuchen held him even tighter.

"Let go? Sure, but..." Yan Xiuchen didn't finish his words before his eyes fell on her lips.

Jiang Qingwu naturally saw through his thoughts. She met his gaze with the corners of her lips curled up slightly.

"You...you wish." With a joking smile, Jiang Qingwu suddenly stood up and quickly fled.

"You just said that I should see my elder brother off in the mansion. What did you mean?"

Yan Xiuchen leaned back in his chair with a bit of disappointment, hiding all the restlessness in his heart.

"I have already written a letter to your father and brother, asking your eldest brother to leave the city at dawn as the Shen family's funeral is tomorrow."

Jiang Qingwu's expression changed and he nodded thoughtfully.

"Okay, this is the best way, otherwise they will know where Big Brother is and try to stop him."

Jiang Qingwu suddenly came back to his senses as he said this. "It's already midnight. I have to go back. I still have something to tell my eldest brother."

"Hey..." Yan Xiuchen opened his mouth and wanted to call Jiang Qingwu to give him some instructions, but he didn't expect Jiuhan to open the door and barge in.

"Godfather..."

Jiang Qingwu was startled and stopped suddenly.

"What's the matter?"

"Oh no! Nanny Zhong is here and is already at the door."

Jiang Qingwu's face changed drastically, and he looked at Yan Xiuchen with trembling pupils, "Madame Zhong, was she sent by the Queen Mother?"

"It's over, it's over. If the Queen Mother had come to you in the middle of the night and taken the beautiful concubine she sent, she would have killed me."

Jiang Qingwu turned around and around, then quickly fled towards the back window.

But as soon as he opened the window a little, he saw Nanny Zhong and her men rushing towards him angrily, and he was almost discovered.

"That's too late……"

"Gu Qing..." Yan Xiuchen shouted and gestured to Jiang Qingwu.

Following Yan Xiuchen's gaze, Jiang Qingwu caught a glimpse of Yan Xiuchen's bed behind the screen.

He reacted immediately, ran over, got on the bed and lowered the bed curtains.

"This old servant pays respect to His Highness."

Nanny Zhong saluted politely, accompanied by four close maids from the Empress Dowager's palace, looking very aggressive.

"Madam Zhong, you came here so late at night, but you know something happened in my palace."

Yan Xiuchen fiddled with the golden bronze fan in his hand, and his expression did not look very good.

"Your Highness, I am here on the orders of the Queen Mother to pay my respects to Your Highness."

"It's because someone reported that the girl from the Jiang family had a private meeting with His Highness in the middle of the night."

"After all, they haven't gotten married yet. Miss Jiang and the Third Prince have discussed marriage before. As the saying goes, people get red when they are around red people, and people get black when they are around black people. Naturally, she doesn't care about her reputation."

"But if it damages your highness's reputation, it will be a great sin."

Nanny Zhong's words were righteous and harsh.

"What do you mean I don't care about reputation? What do you mean he who keeps company with vermilion will be red, he who keeps company with ink will be black?"

"This is clearly directed at me!"

A spy, there is definitely a spy!

She had only been here for half an hour, how did the Queen Mother know?

Jiang Qingwu hid on the bed, gritting his teeth in anger.

He muttered to himself and complained in his heart, almost cursing out loud.

"So Nanny Zhong came here for this matter. I thought she came for Hongluan and Tianyue."

Yan Xiuchen's face was gloomy, his eyes were cold and fierce, and he was suppressing his anger.

"I will talk to Your Highness about this later. Now I need to find Miss Jiang and give her a lecture on behalf of the Queen Mother."

As she spoke, Nanny Zhong waved to the palace maid behind her.

As soon as they started to move, Yan Xiuchen became angry and shouted angrily, "How dare you!"

The four palace maids were so frightened that they immediately knelt on the ground, and Nanny Zhong's face turned pale.

Seeing this, Jiu Han, who was standing by, immediately shouted to the outside of the door, "Someone come here."

As they were talking, seven or eight people rushed in.

"Madam Zhong, what do you think this place is?"

There was murderous intent in Yan Xiuchen's eyes and a sinister look on his face.

"This old servant... This old servant has been ordered to come here to investigate for the Queen Mother..."

Nanny Zhong was so frightened that she was trembling and stammering.

Hearing this, Yan Xiuchen sneered, but his face remained frosty.

"Really? Then Mammy should investigate it carefully."

Nanny Zhong swallowed secretly, looked around, and her eyes fell on the bed.

As if he saw through something, he slowly walked towards the bed.

But just as he reached the screen, he heard Yan Xiuchen's cold and deep voice from behind him.

"Madame Zhong, you must think it through...what to do next!"

With just one sentence, Nanny Zhong was so frightened that she immediately retreated back to Yan Xiuchen.

Seeing this, Yan Xiuchen leaned forward, his eyes were cold and his voice was as cold as ice.

"Mammy, have you thought it through?"

"I thought even you, Madam, dared to bully me... you are a cripple?"

With a thump, Nanny Zhong knelt down immediately after hearing these words.

"I dare not, Your Highness, please forgive me."

Yan Xiuchen glanced coldly at Nanny Zhong lying on the ground, opened the golden bronze fan with a rustle, leaned back in the chair, and shook it slowly.

"Hongluan and Tianyue drugged me with the intention of murdering me. They have confessed."

"If you want me to let this go, please allow me, Queen Mother..."

"Five days from now, this prince and Jiang Qingwu will hold an engagement banquet."

"Yes, yes, I'll take my leave."

Nanny Zhong was so frightened that she didn't dare to look up. She just agreed in a low voice and then led her people out.

Seeing this, Jiang Qingwu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Five days later? Is it in time?" Jiang Qingwu smiled secretly and muttered softly.

Just as she was about to get out of bed, she accidentally kicked over Yan Xiuchen's brocade shoes beside the bed.

But just when she subconsciously put her shoes away, she saw that the soles of Yan Xiuchen's shoes were covered with dust.
