Reborn to marry the regent and seize the throne as queen

The decree for Jiang Qingyu and Princess Yuya to hold their wedding ceremony ahead of schedule was announced to the entire city.

Everyone knows about it, including the powerful ministers in the court and the merchants and common people outside the palace.

Yan Xiuchen came out of the palace and went straight to the Marquis' Mansion, but Jiang Qingwu was not there.

In the evening, Jiang Qingwu sat on the upper floor of the building across the street from Baihua Tower.

Zhuang Qing bought sesame biscuits and pastries. When they were brought to her, she was holding a teacup, her eyes fixed on the Baihua Tower opposite.

Zhuang Qing followed his gaze and looked with a puzzled look on her face.

Jiang Qingwu looked at the cakes in front of him and came back to his senses. "You're back? Sit down and eat."

Upon hearing the voice, Zhuang Qing waved her hand and gestured towards Jiang Qingwu.

[Girl, what are you looking at the brothel across the street for? ]

Jiang Qingwu smiled and pointed to the seat opposite Zhuang Qing. "I told you to sit down, so just sit down. We're going to stay here for a while."

Zhuang Qing bowed slightly, turned around and sat at the table opposite. Jiang Qingwu then pushed the things he bought over.

"It's too late to go back for dinner, so eat something first."

Zhuang Qing unwrapped the pastry and handed it to Jiang Qingwu.

"I don't want to eat. You eat first." Jiang Qingwu agreed, staring at the opposite side without moving.

It wasn't until he saw a familiar figure that Jiang Qingwu's eyes lit up and he stood up and walked towards the railing.

The second prince Yan Nan was seen disguised as a young master and entered the Baihua Tower with two close associates.

The madam and several girls surrounded him as if he were a regular customer, as if they had seen a pile of silver.

"I thought you weren't coming." Jiang Qingwu chuckled and drank the teacup.

"Girl..." Wanyue shouted and ran up from downstairs. Seeing Zhuang Qing eating by herself, she sighed secretly.

"How is it?" Jiang Qingwu looked back, and Wanyue also hurried over.

"I have checked. Every time the Second Prince comes here, he stays overnight."

"Shen Jing has been brought here, and Luo Ming is in the building, young lady... I guarantee that everything will be safe."

Jiang Qingwu looked at the brothel opposite and smiled.

"Okay, I want to see if there is anything fishy going on in Baihua Tower."

"If Shen Wanrong is really here, she will never allow Shen Jing to get into trouble. If she makes a move, capture her immediately."

Wan Yue frowned slightly and whispered to Jiang Qingwu in confusion, "What if he's not here?"

"Is it too risky to kidnap Shen Jing just to lure out Shen Wanrong?"

"And the plan has fallen on the Second Prince's head."

"We are allied with the Queen."

Hearing this, Jiang Qingwu turned to look at Wanyue and said faintly, "Who said that I did this just to lure out Shen Wanrong?"

Wan Yue was even more confused. After thinking for a long time, she shook her head gently, "Could it be that the girl is plotting against the Second Prince?"

"Kill two birds with one stone. Both are essential." Jiang Qingwu murmured, and gestured to Wanyue, "Zhuang Qing and I will go back first. You and Luo Ming will stay here and cooperate with each other from inside and outside."

"At this moment, I'm afraid Yan Xiuchen is looking for me all over the world."

Wan Yue bowed slightly and nodded to Jiang Qingwu, "Girls, you go back first. Luo Ming and I will watch over here."

Wanyue sent Jiang Qingwu and the others downstairs, and when they were about to get on the carriage, they were suddenly bumped by two people who were chasing them.

Jiang Qingwu staggered, turned around to look at the person who escaped, and frowned slightly.

I thought it was just an accident, but when I turned around I suddenly realized something.

The jade seal in his arms is gone.

Jiang Qingwu was shocked, and his face suddenly darkened as he watched the gradually disappearing figure of the escaping man.

"Zhuang Qing, go back home. Wan Yue, stay here and do your job."

Jiang Qingwu took off his cloak and gave orders, then snatched the knife from Wanyue's hand and chased after the man.

But after chasing for two blocks, the man suddenly disappeared.

Jiang Qingwu stood on the busy street, instantly became angry and blew a whistle.

In a moment, three or four beggars and vendors nearby surrounded Jiang Qingwu.

Jiang Qingwu hid in the alley beside the street and lowered his voice to a few people.

"Go gather some people. Find a man in dark green rough clothes, thin, seven feet tall, with tied hair and a wooden hairpin."

"He stole my things. I want this person to appear in front of me within half an hour."

As he spoke, Jiang Qingwu threw a silver ingot to the beggar at the other end.

"Yes, girl..."

Jiang Qingwu looked at the people who scattered away and secretly clenched his fists.

"You dare to provoke me in East City."

Tea stall near Six Senses Hall as night falls.

Not long after Jiang Qingwu sat down, someone hurriedly came up to him.

"Girl, the man has been caught on West Street and is being sent over."

Jiang Qingwu's eyes lit up, and he smiled secretly, "Tell everyone that Liushantang will open meat for three days, and those who work hard today will receive an extra 100 yuan."

"Yes, thank you girl."

The tea stall owner brewed some tea and brought it to Jiang Qingwu with a smile on his face.

"The young lady is happy again. Every time she is happy, the Six Goodness Hall becomes very lively."

Jiang Qingwu nodded, picked up the tea bowl and said with a smile, "Remember to eat meat tomorrow."

"Hey, good."

Seeing this, Jiang Qingwu suddenly remembered something, "By the way, Uncle Chen, how is Zhuang Youwen's nephew doing recently?"

"Yes, it's fine. Aunt Zhou from South Street is taking care of him. Her grandson is the same age as the boy."

"One is enough. Two is enough. Mr. Zhuang gives him ten taels of silver every month. Usually, he also sends him meat and vegetables."

Jiang Qingwu nodded, looked at Uncle Chen who was busy, and took out a silver ingot from his arms.

"Uncle Chen, go on."

"Hey, girl, this is..."

"I remember you also live on South Street. Please give it to Aunt Zhou for me and ask her to take care of it."

"Well, good, half of East City is vying to do things for you, I've got the chance, I will definitely do it for you."

Jiang Qingwu smiled when he heard the voice, turned around and picked up the tea bowl, "Uncle Chen, this tea is well brewed. You don't have to rush to do things for me. It's good enough for me to have a cup of tea."

Jiang Qingwu and Chen Bo were talking and laughing when three or four people escorted the man to their front.

The leader was Feng Qizi from Liushan Hall, a personal soldier that Jiang Qingwu had rescued on the battlefield before. Because he had injured his leg, he had been in charge of Liushan Hall.

Feng Qizi was in his twenties, but he was mature and steady. When he brought the person over, he looked around from time to time.

"Miss..." Feng Qizi called Jiang Qingwu in a low voice, then took out the jade seal that the man had stolen from his arms and handed it to Jiang Qingwu.

"Is this what the girl lost? She found it on this man."

Jiang Qingwu took it, checked it carefully, and nodded, "Yes."

Jiang Qingwu put away the jade seal, stood up and walked towards the man.

"Who...who do you belong to?"

The other party said nothing and was forced to his knees by the two beggars.

“Old Feng…” Jiang Qingwu shouted, motioning to Feng Qizi, “Interrogate him carefully and see how long he can hold out.”

"No need to be so troublesome." Feng Qizi agreed, stepped forward, grabbed his arm and covered his mouth.

There was a sound of "crack", and the man stammered and screamed in pain.

Jiang Qingwu narrowed his eyes, shrank back, and smiled, "Good trick."

"I...I'll say, I'll say..." The man finally spoke, covering his arms and stammering.

"Yes, yes...it's the Regent!"
