Reborn to marry the regent and seize the throne as queen

Jiang Qingwu was stunned, his mind was confused for a moment, then he quickly shook his head.

"No, no, I mean, the fire in the city... was set by me."

I thought Yan Xiuchen would definitely ask her, but she looked so calm.

He hummed in a muffled voice and poured himself a cup of tea. "Let it go if you want. Did you come here so late just to tell me this?"

Jiang Qingwu was stunned again, moved the chair under him, and moved closer to Yan Xiuchen.

"I just want you to praise me."

"Those places all belong to Yan Lin. There is a base for selling stolen goods, a manor where weapons are hidden, and an intelligence contact point."

"He doesn't know that I know, and he won't doubt me if it's burned."

She only found out about these things later. At that time, she really didn't know Yan Lin's secrets.

Thinking of this, Jiang Qingwu dragged the chair again and moved closer to Yan Xiuchen.

"These things should only be known by the Shen family. Once this happens, they will definitely fight each other."

"The Shen family's power in the court is complex and intertwined. Instead of attacking the Shen family, it is better to let them fall apart on their own."

As he spoke, Jiang Qingwu leaned forward again, almost throwing himself on Yan Xiuchen.

Yan Xiuchen looked at the person approaching, and his eyes couldn't help but focus on her face.

"If you... go any further, I will not be polite..."

It would have been better if he hadn't said that. After he said that, Jiang Qingwu became more energetic.

He stood up from the chair and leaned close to Yan Xiuchen's face.

"You're going to... why are you so rude."

Yan Xiuchen lowered his eyes slightly, his heart was filled with ripples, but when he thought of what he heard in the palace, his face couldn't help but darken.

He grabbed Jiang Qingwu's wrist and pulled him into his arms.

"Do you want to kill me for Yan Lin, or do you want to be Yan Lin's accomplice and uproot my power?"

There was clearly deep affection in his eyes, but his mouth was full of doubt.

But it is understandable. Anyone who heard what she and Yan Lin said would be furious.

Jiang Qingwu thought about it, curled her lips, slowly stood up, straightened her clothes and said aggrievedly, "It's understandable that you don't believe me."

"Anyway... His Majesty has already granted us the marriage, so there is still a long way to go..."

Jiang Qingwu forced a smile on his face and crawled under the table to pick up his knife.

"Well, about the antidote, there are still three months left. Yan Lin still trusts me now, so I'll try to find out about that miracle doctor he mentioned."

After saying this, seeing that Yan Xiuchen was still looking at him with a cold face, Jiang Qingwu had no choice but to prepare to leave in shame.

"Then I'll go first... There are too few guards in your house. It's not safe. Be careful."

Yan Xiuchen watched Jiang Qingwu clumsily climb through the window, and could not help but call out to her, "The city is in chaos, do you want to be arrested?"

Jiang Qingwu was sitting on the windowsill with one leg sticking out.

After hearing Yan Xiuchen's words, he quickly turned back, squatted in front of Yan Xiuchen, smiling.

"Then please take me in, Your Highness. I'm so young, it's easy to take me in!"

Yan Xiuchen looked at the face that was close to him, reached out and grabbed the back of her neck, and pulled her towards him.

"What antidote? Doctor, I know what I am doing. You don't need to worry about it. Just...stay away from Yan Lin."

Jiang Qingwu's eyes lit up, and he put his arms around Yan Xiuchen's neck, "Do you believe me?"

Yan Xiuchen's heart tightened, and he quickly avoided his gaze, "If you want me to trust you, you must discuss everything with me in the future."

"it is good."

"From now on, you are not allowed to see Yan Lin without permission."

"it is good."

"You are not allowed to lie to this king."

Jiang Qingwu smiled, nodded heavily, and said gently, "...Okay."

Looking at Jiang Qingwu's smiling face, he could no longer suppress the throbbing in his heart and kissed him.

Looking at the lips that were kissing him, Jiang Qingwu couldn't help but clench her hands around Yan Xiuchen's neck.

This face, these eyes, seemed to be able to captivate the soul, making her fall deeply in love with them.

For a moment, she had an evil thought and suddenly realized that she was so greedy for beauty.

But just as his lips fell, the door slammed open.

Jiang Qingwu was so frightened that he trembled and jumped away subconsciously.

Jiuhan and Jiuye suddenly rushed in, saw the two being intimate, and quickly left.

Yan Xiuchen suppressed his annoyance and shouted to the outside, "Get back here!"

"……Yes."

When the two heard the shouting, they immediately turned back.

"Godfather, the prefect of the capital wants to see you. He said that he found some things at the fire scene and dared not deal with them without authorization."

Hearing this, Jiang Qingwu hurriedly leaned over to Yan Xiuchen's ear and said, "It is forbidden to privately cast a bow and crossbow... I left a person alive, and he must have been detained by the prefect."

Yan Xiuchen looked up at Jiang Qingwu, then turned to Jiuhan and said, "Ask Tang Zhi to come and serve. She will sleep in the west wing today."

Jiang Qingwu was stunned for a moment, looked around, pointed at the couch not far away, and asked seriously, "Can't I sleep there?"

"You sleep yours, I sleep mine, I just... want to be closer to you."

Jiu Ye heard the voice, chuckled, and muttered unhappily, "You want to assassinate me in the middle of the night."

"You..." Jiang Qingwu glared at him angrily, then thought again, that's right.

Yan Xiuchen didn't trust her now. If she stayed here all night, he would probably not be able to sleep.

Thinking about this, Jiang Qingwu bowed slightly to Yan Xiuchen and said, "Then I'm going to sleep."

Seeing Jiang Qingwu and Jiuhan leave the door, Yan Xiuchen raised his eyes and a cold light swept towards Jiuye.

Jiu Ye originally had a smug look on his face, but immediately froze in shock, cleared his throat, and moved closer to Yan Xiuchen.

"Godfather, it's already several hours in the night. If you fall asleep and she kills you, we won't be able to catch up."

Yan Xiuchen frowned slightly, a sneer appeared on his helpless face, and he gritted his teeth and said, "That makes sense. Why don't you wait in the house to serve me when we get married!"

Jiu Ye was stunned for a moment, and just as he was about to say something, Yan Xiuchen shouted, "Shut up and go see the prefect."

"Oh yes."

The wing rooms are not small, they are elegant and spacious, and there are gold carvings and jade carvings everywhere.

Although both his house and Yan Xiuchen's house were in Beiyuan, they were separated by a green lake.

Under the cover of night, only the candlelight in the house reflects the rippling waves of the lake.

As soon as Jiang Qingwu entered the room, he looked around.

Not long after, someone pushed the door and walked in.

"Your servant, Aunt Tang Zhi, the head of the palace, pays respects to Miss Jiang."

Jiang Qingwu came back to his senses when he heard the voice.

Tang Zhi was dressed in fancy clothes. Although the clothes were not made of the finest material, they were covered in Su brocade and her skirt fluttered in the wind, which showed her social status.

"Tang Zhi?"

"It's a slave."

Jiang Qingwu nodded and gestured to her, "Go find me a plain dress, any style will do."

"Prepare the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and help me grind the ink."

"Oh, by the way, go get some food. Anything will do."

Jiang Qingwu talked to himself, but there was no response for a long time, so he couldn't help but look back.

Tang Zhi stood there steadily, as if he didn't hear what she said.

"Young lady, you don't know that we have a curfew at midnight in Beiyuan. Without any special instructions, servants are not allowed to walk around."

"Young lady, you might as well go to bed early after all this trouble. If you need anything, I will prepare it for you tomorrow morning."

Having said that, Tang Zhi walked out on her own.

Jiang Qingwu was so angry that he laughed. He shouted at her, "Stop."

"It's been a long time since midnight, and you were still called here."

"I didn't have any special orders, so I'm not allowed to wander around, but now, I have orders."

Tang Zhi had a blank expression on her face, looking fearless, and bowed her head slightly.

"You haven't married into the palace yet, so you are just a guest. Guests should follow the host's wishes and naturally abide by the palace's rules."

"Young lady, you'd better not cause trouble. If you lose the wealth you have obtained, it will be more trouble than it is worth."

Jiang Qingwu heard the voice, smiled in surprise, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

He walked closer to Tang Zhi, slowly drew his knife, and put it on her neck.

"Then guess... can I marry in? After I marry in... can you still be the head aunt..."
