Reborn to marry the regent and seize the throne as queen

This voice is clearly Shen Wanrong's, but the way it sounds is not hers.

Concubine Yu respectfully paid her respects to the Queen, and only after receiving her consent did she slowly stand up.

"This must be Miss Jiang from Shunqing Marquis's Mansion."

As she spoke, Concubine Yu walked closer to Jiang Qingwu and bowed slightly.

"Meet Miss Jiang."

According to the rules, she didn't need to greet Jiang Qingwu.

And Jiang Qingwu shouldn't have accepted this gift, but when he saw her approaching, Jiang Qingwu's heart tightened slightly, and he vaguely remembered something.

She had met Concubine Yu in Zuiyan Lane, and Zhuang asked her about the day when the house caught fire.

Jiang Qingwu secretly clenched his fists, his face becoming gloomy.

"You are a concubine and she is a servant. How can you bow to her? Either you don't know the rules, or you are deliberately trying to put Miss Jiang in an unfair position."

The queen suddenly spoke, as if she was going to call an army to question the culprit.

Jiang Qingwu also recovered from her shock and stood up to bow slightly to Concubine Yu, "Madam Yu, the Queen is right, I am a subject and you are a concubine."

"There is a difference between the noble and the humble. Please don't put me in an unjust position."

"No, it's my fault."

As she spoke, Concubine Yu turned to the Queen and said, "Your Majesty, His Majesty said that Princess Yuya's marriage is very complicated."

"I'm afraid that Your Majesty will be troubled, so I specially asked this concubine to come and help."

"You can ask me to do any trivial things you want."

"Really?" The queen agreed unhappily, then remembered something.

"The Imperial Household Department has selected a group of palace maids to marry Yuya. Go and count them and lead them to the Princess' Zhiya Pavilion."

"Yes, I will go right away."

Seeing Concubine Yu leaving, Jiang Qingwu hurriedly stood up and gestured to the Queen, "Your Majesty, I have something to do. I will leave first."

Without waiting for the Queen to speak, Jiang Qingwu immediately chased after her, and even Wanyue didn't have time to react.

When Jiang Qingwu caught up with Concubine Yu, she was just leaving the Queen's palace with two close guards and two eunuchs.

Jiang Qingwu did not rush forward, nor did he call her, but followed silently behind her, his eyes fixed on Concubine Yu's back.

Wan Yue looked at Concubine Yu in confusion, then turned to look at Jiang Qingwu, "Miss, what are you looking at?"

"Listen to her voice, does it sound like Shen Wanrong?"

Wan Yue stared blankly into the distance, nodding in a daze, "Now that you mention it, it does look a bit like it."

"You don't think that this Concubine Yu is Shen Wanrong, do you?"

"Yes, that's what I thought." Seeing Yu Fei and the others walking away, Jiang Qingwu quickly followed them.

Seeing this, Wanyue hurriedly chased after him.

"Girl, this is not a joke. Although the voices are similar, this Concubine Yu is obviously older than Shen Wanrong."

Jiang Qingwu hadn't noticed it before, but when he heard Wanyue say it, he realized it was true.

Judging from his appearance, he does look a bit steady and old.

"From the looks of it, he is in his twenties at most, not much older."

Jiang Qingwu slowed down his pace, but his eyes still did not move away from the figure in the distance.

"Girl, how can she be Shen Wanrong? Shen Wanrong is the same age as you, and she is with the Third Prince."

"If it is really Shen Wanrong, then doesn't that mean she followed the Third Prince first and then followed His Majesty?"

Jiang Qingwu sneered and turned to look at Wanyue, "What's there to be surprised about?"

"I promised myself to Yan Lin and his uncle Wang."

Wan Yue was stunned for a moment, paused, and when she came to her senses, Jiang Qingwu had already walked a long way away.

"Girl, you are different from Shen Wanrong, and you and the Third Prince are not..."

"Shh..." Jiang Qingwu signaled to Wanyue and pulled her to the corner against the wall.

Concubine Yu, who was far away, sent away the palace maids and eunuchs following her, and walked towards the cold palace alone.

Seeing this, Jiang Qingwu became more certain of his guess.

Just as Jiang Qingwu was following Concubine Yu step by step and was about to reach the cold palace, he bumped into Xu Qingran at the corner of the long street.

Xu Qingran came over from a distance with two palace maids. When she saw Jiang Qingwu, she called her loudly.

"Sister Jiang..."

Jiang Qingwu was startled and subconsciously looked at Concubine Yu in the distance. At this time, she heard the shouting, stopped, turned around and came over.

Jiang Qingwu looked at Xu Qingran who was approaching, his face as black as charcoal.

"What sister? Who is your sister?" Jiang Qingwu shouted harshly, and vented all the anger in his heart onto Xu Qingran.

Xu Qingran was not angry either. Holding a food box in her hand, she bowed to Jiang Qingwu, "Miss Jiang..."

"I have no intention of offending Miss Jiang. I was going to the Medicinal Food Department to get medicinal food for the Queen Mother."

"Since..." Xu Qingran said, turning around and seeing Concubine Yu, he immediately bowed to her, "Greetings, Madam Concubine Yu."

"No gift."

"I'm busy delivering medicinal food to the Queen Mother, so I won't disturb you two anymore." Xu Qingran bowed slightly, then left with her people.

Jiang Qingwu sighed secretly, looking at the two of them with suspicion in his heart.

Xu Qingran is Gu Yanbai's man, and these two are probably in the same boat.

"I came here for a walk, but I didn't expect it to be so lively." Jiang Qingwu glanced at Yu Fei with displeasure.

"I don't know what Concubine Yu is doing over there. That road seems to lead to the cold palace."

Jiang Qingwu wanted to call her a general, but the other party replied calmly, "I'm going to the cold palace to see Concubine Shen... Oh, no, I should call her Concubine Shen now."

She actually admitted it, and admitted it so straightforwardly.

"Why are you going to see her? In the cold palace, can you see her whenever you want?"

Concubine Yu smiled slightly and said softly, "Miss Jiang, you don't know that I was originally a maid in Concubine Shen's palace, and now I am deeply favored by His Majesty."

"It is thanks to Concubine Shen that I can become the imperial concubine."

"Early in the morning, I asked His Majesty for permission to go to the cold palace to see Lady Shen and express my gratitude to her."

Jiang Qingwu was speechless for a moment and felt a little helpless.

This Concubine Yu answered so appropriately, as if she already knew what she was going to ask.

Others went to see Concubine Shen, and did it openly, but she became the sneaky person.

"I see. I...I was just walking around and happened to see you."

"Then... Miss Jiang, do you want to come with us? I heard that there are some misunderstandings between Miss Jiang and Shen Cairen, so why not..."

Jiang Qingwu smiled when he heard this, and gestured to Concubine Yu, "That's not necessary. I like cleanliness and excitement, and I can't go to the cold palace."

Having said that, Jiang Qingwu turned around and strode away.

Seeing Jiang Qingwu's gloomy face, Wan Yue followed Jiang Qingwu closely, not daring to say a word.

Jiang Qingwu slowed down his pace only after walking a long way.

He was thinking deeply about something, and then went straight to the emperor's Shangyang Palace.

"Girl, where are we going? Do you still think she is Shen Wanrong?"

Jiang Qingwu walked hurriedly, as if he had made up his mind, "Go to the Internal Affairs Department to check on this Concubine Yu. Didn't she say she was a palace maid before?"

"Then there must be a file on her."

"I won't make a mistake. Shen Wanrong... I would recognize her even if she turned into ashes."

Jiang Qingwu was hurriedly heading towards the inner household department, but at the fork in the long street, he heard Yan Xiuchen's voice.

"So I'm in love..."

Yan Xiuchen came from the direction of the Queen's Palace, holding a booklet in his hand.

"Everything you want to check is here with me."
