Reborn to marry the regent and seize the throne as queen

Seeing Gu Yanbai's indignant look, Jiang Qingwu smiled and sat down beside the stone bed.

He straightened his cloak, turned around and said faintly, "Then what should I do to you?"

"You cut my fiancé's hand, and I haven't settled the score with you yet."

Gu Yanbai was stunned for a moment, lowered his eyes guiltily, and cleared his throat, "Ahem..."

"Is he... is he okay? I should have hit him... not too hard."

"You can't even lift your arm now. Tell me if it's serious." Jiang Qingwu said as he took the lunch box from the table beside him and handed it to Gu Yanbai.

Seeing this, Gu Yanbai moved over with shining eyes, "He can't lift his arm? He showed no mercy when he hit me. My neck still hurts now."

"What is this? I told you I'm starving." Gu Yanbai opened the food box and was delighted like a child.

"Roast chicken, and wine...I didn't know what I ate last time. I was starving. You're still good to me."

"He asked me to deliver it. He said that you can't live without meat..."

Jiang Qingwu looked at Gu Yanbai's appearance, sighed helplessly, stood up and sat on a chair not far away.

"I really don't know why he is so nice to you."

Gu Yanbai, who was eating, froze in his tracks. He said thoughtfully while eating, "I saved his life when I was a child."

"At that time he said that he would protect me for the rest of my life."

Jiang Qingwu's heart tightened slightly. He sat on a chair not far away, staring at Gu Yanbai closely.

"It's just... forget it. If a man doesn't take care of himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth."

"He has helped me enough before. When it comes to life and death decisions, it's not wrong to think about yourself."

Jiang Qingwu heard this and felt indignant for Yan Xiuchen, and couldn't help but shout.

"Use your dog brain, he was so good to you, he even gave you his life, how could he bear to abandon you in Fuye?"

Gu Yanbai was startled, then turned to look at Jiang Qingwu fiercely, "You know something, right?"

"I don't know. He won't let me know anything."

"He is protecting you." Gu Yanbai said calmly, threw the half-eaten chicken leg in his hand back into the box, and wiped his hands with some hay.

Then he threw a medicine bottle in his arms towards Jiang Qingwu.

"There is also a medicine in here, the antidote for the Heart-Eating Gu."

Jiang Qingwu was startled, looking at the medicine bottle in his hand, frowning, "How did you get..."

"I am the miracle doctor Yan Lin mentioned. I always thought I kept this a secret, but he already knew it."

"Now that you know, there's no need to hide it."

"This antidote can only delay the disease for a month. He has a skilled imperial physician by his side. The imperial physician's method can also alleviate the pain of the poison, but it can't cure the poison."

Gu Yanbai is the miracle doctor Yan Lin mentioned? !

No wonder Jiu Ye said that Yan Xiuchen knew where the antidote was but just refused to tell him.

No wonder Yan Xiuchen didn't want her to worry about the antidote at the beginning.

It turns out that he has always known that the antidote is with Gu Yanbai.

She should have thought of it earlier, she was so stupid.

Jiang Qingwu listened to Gu Yanbai's words and suddenly stood up and pressed forward, "You poisoned him, where is the antidote to completely cure the poison?"

"I don't have it." Gu Yanbai blurted out, then sighed, "It's not that I don't have it, it just takes time for me to make it."

"Tell me the antidote and I'll go."

Gu Yanbai smiled when he heard the voice and said, "You can't control it, only I can."

Jiang Qingwu held the medicine bottle doubtfully, and looked at Gu Yanbai suspiciously, "There is one more thing I don't quite understand."

"You said."

"Since Yan Xiuchen knew that the antidote was with you, it would be easier for him to get it. Why did he..."

"Why did he never take the initiative to find an antidote? He even drove you away before the poison took effect."

Gu Yanbai was silent for a moment, a little dazed, then picked up the wine jug from the food box and poured it directly into his mouth.

"Before, I thought he knew nothing. He didn't know that I was the one who poisoned him and that I had the antidote."

"But now I understand that he knows everything."

"That's why I can probably understand why he didn't ask me for the antidote, but instead drove me away."

Jiang Qingwu was confused and sat on the bed, questioning with sharp eyes, "Are you playing dumb with me?"

"You did not answer my question."

Gu Yanbai came back to his senses, let out a bitter smile and sighed, "You're right, he even gave me his life to play with, how could he bear to leave me alone."

Jiang Qingwu was a little impatient and turned his face away helplessly, "He really is playing with your life."

"It's just..." Jiang Qingwu murmured, and something came to his mind.

In the previous life, where was Gu Yanbai in the previous life?

Why didn't she know anything about him in her previous life?

Is it because I didn’t have much interaction with Yan Xiuchen in my previous life and didn’t notice it, or is it…

"still have a question."

Gu Yanbai frowned and leaned against the wall, "You really have a lot of questions."

"Tell me."

"What decided to send you to Dayan?"

Gu Yanbai smiled slightly and leaned towards him, "Promise me one thing, and I will answer your question."

"You said."

"Help me find the person holding the late emperor's jade sword."

"What did you say?" Jiang Qingwu was shocked and blurted out.

Gu Yanbai nodded seriously and said, "This is a deal between us. As long as you help me find that person, I will tell you everything I know."

"I will tell you my true identity, and I will also tell you the true relationship between Yan Xiuchen and me."

"I will also tell you everything I know."

"How about it, it's a good deal."

As he spoke, Gu Yanbai smiled evilly and extended his hand towards Jiang Qingwu, "Happy cooperation?"

This is so tempting.

This is not an exchange or a transaction at all.

Because she also wanted to know who the person holding the jade sword was, and who Yan Xiuchen was hiding.

Find that person and you can know everything she wants to know.

Jiang Qingwu hesitated, and Gu Yanbai silently withdrew his hand, "I can first show my sincerity and answer your question just now."

"In fact, at the Xiling battlefield, I cooperated with Yan Lin and asked him to poison Yan Xiuchen."

"It's just to gain Yan Lin's trust and control Yan Xiuchen."

"Originally I didn't plan to join Yan Lin. I was poisoned and injured. If Yan Lin marries you, I will be on the road to success."

"Yan Xiuchen has no power to fight for power, and he is restrained by my Heart-Eating Gu. He will take the initiative to go to Sang Country to see me."

"So, I plan to wait for him at the East Border Pass."

"I just didn't expect... that idiot Yan Lin would ruin all the plans."

Jiang Qingwu's head was buzzing and his heart was in turmoil.

Sure enough, it was because of her rebirth that everything changed.

"So, you entered Dayan because I broke off my engagement with Yan Lin and married Yan Xiuchen instead."

"It's because you knew that Yan Xiuchen was fighting for power and suppressed Yan Lin, which forced you to show up in the capital."

"That's about right." Gu Yanbai sighed softly, "If Yan Lin falls into Yan Xiuchen's hands, it's only a matter of time before he betrays me."

"By then, if he attacks Sang Country, won't I be in a passive position?"

"It's better to strike first. I need Yan Lin's help."
