Reborn to marry the regent and seize the throne as queen

The next morning, at daybreak, Jiang Qingwu and Wanyue quietly left the city.

After leaving the city gate, Jiang Qingwu pulled out the gauze scarf from her arms and covered her eyes.

Wan Yue, who was driving, looked back at Jiang Qingwu and gazed at the deserted official road in the distance, "Don't worry, young lady. I'm here."

"it is good……"

When the carriage had traveled twenty miles along the official road, Jiang Qingwu suddenly stopped, "Wanyue, is there a fork in the road ahead?"

"Yes, about a hundred meters."

"Turn left."

"Yes, young lady." Wanyue continued to drive. After driving for another twenty miles, Jiang Qingwu heard the sound of water and directed Wanyue, "Take the mountain road on the left."

In this way, Jiang Qingwu was directing and Wanyue was driving the car. They did not take the wrong turn at several forks in the road and arrived at the mountain road of Qingfengao, a hundred miles away.

But as she walked, Wanyue stopped, looked around, and became alert.

"What's wrong? Is there no way out?" Jiang Qingwu asked, grabbing the knife in his hand and walking out of the carriage.

Seeing this, Wan Yue quickly supported Jiang Qingwu and said, "Yes, girl, there is no way out, and..."

"Girl, this place is barren, all dense forests and mountains. Are you sure this is it?"

Wanyue listened to the crows' screams all around her and vigilantly grasped the hilt of the soft sword at her waist.

Jiang Qingwu pulled off the veil covering her eyes and looked around, becoming more certain of her guess.

"That's it, follow me." Jiang Qingwu murmured, pushed aside the weeds in the dense forest and walked in.

"Girl, how can you be sure it's this? Aren't you blindfolded?"

"I'm just blindfolded. I can hear, smell, and feel it."

"The carriage was bumpy, and at every fork in the road, you could tell the direction. Along the way, the smells of the bamboo forest and maple forest were also different."

Jiang Qingwu pushed aside the weeds and looked for traces of his previous passage.

“Also, I remember all the sounds that appeared along the way, including the birdsong, tea stalls, vendors, and villages.”

"It's not that hard to find this place..."

Wan Yue nodded gently and looked at Jiang Qingwu with shining eyes, "Girl, you are amazing."

"It's nothing. Bai Ge and the others can find it too. It's just a matter of time."

The two men passed through the dense forest and were stopped by two men in black in front of a small path in the mountain.

Just as Wanyue was about to take action, Jiang Qingwu stopped her.

"Take me to see Gu Yanbai. I have something important to do. You can't afford to delay me."

The two of them looked at each other and motioned to Jiang Qingwu, "Give me the knife."

Jiang Qingwu hesitated for a moment, then threw his sword over.

Jiang Qingwu followed the two people along the path between the mountains for a long time and finally saw the garden.

Deep in the valley, there is gurgling water, surrounded by dense forests, and secret guards lurking all around.

Jiang Qingwu crossed the river along the wooden bridge and trotted towards the yard.

But as soon as I reached the door, I heard a familiar voice.

"So I'm in love..."

Jiang Qingwu suddenly stopped and turned around to see Yan Xiuchen coming towards him with a fish cage.

He was dressed in a long white robe, with his hair untied, and looked a bit like a leisurely immortal.

"Yan Xiuchen?" Jiang Qingwu saw that Yan Xiuchen was safe and sound and ran over in a hurry.

Yan Xiuchen immediately dropped the fish cage and hugged her.

"Are you okay? Are your injuries healed?"

Yan Xiuchen actually believed what Gu Yanbai said at this time. Jiang Qingwu was indeed smart to have come so quickly.

"It's okay, they're just superficial injuries. He was just trying to scare you." Yan Xiuchen said, holding the person in his arms tighter.

"Oh my, you came here so quickly, I underestimated you."

Gu Yanbai came over from behind with a fishing rod in his hand, a smile on his face, but he no longer had the fierce and murderous aura he had before.

"You're still laughing. They're here to kill you." Jiang Qingwu shouted, and Gu Yanbai and Yan Xiuchen's faces changed.

In the garden, Gu Yanbai still looked fearless as he sat at the stone table drinking tea.

"Isn't it just in time that you came? It seems like you did a great job, and..."

"You are very smart. You should have guessed my purpose."

Jiang Qingwu sighed helplessly, and all the panic on his face disappeared. "Yes, I guessed your purpose. Not only did I know your purpose, but I also helped you."

"They exaggerated a lot. I followed them to the ghost market and found many Fuye people."

"Gu Yanbai, if you want to fight that person, you have to stay alive first."

Yan Xiuchen frowned and looked at Jiang Qingwu, then he understood something, "You mean, you tell them the location here."

"I didn't tell you everything. At the time, I was just thinking... thinking about helping Gu Yanbai and luring that person over."

"Who knows, the Fuye people who came."

Yan Xiuchen sighed helplessly and snatched the teacup from Gu Yanbai's hand, "Don't drink it, take your people away immediately."

"Are you kidding me? I waited so long for them to come here, how could they leave?"

"Thanks to you, neither the Fuye people nor the person who wanted to kill me have appeared for a long time."

"This time you are here with me, even if there are Fuye people, they can't all be Fuye people."

"I can't leave. I want to know who those people are."

Gu Yanbai said with a firm look on his face, and then stood up and approached Yan Xiuchen, "How about you tell me, who is that person? Where is he? How is he?"

Yan Xiuchen was choked, his eyes drooped slightly, and he threw the teacup on the table, "Do you have any other way here?"

"No, there is only that one entrance and exit. If we go out now, we might just bump into him."

Gu Yanbai murmured disapprovingly, then sat back with a chuckle.

"You go if you want to leave. I won't leave."

Jiang Qingwu closed his eyes helplessly.

At this time, how could Yan Xiuchen leave if asked to do so?

Jiang Qingwu looked around anxiously, then pulled out the soft sword from Wanyue's waist and put it on Gu Yanbai's neck in one step.

"You have to go, whether you want to or not."

When Xu Qingran and the secret guards in the yard saw Gu Yanbai being held hostage, they swarmed over immediately.

Seeing this, Yan Xiuchen subconsciously stood in front of Jiang Qingwu.

"What are you doing?" Gu Yanbai looked at Jiang Qingwu calmly and chuckled, "If I don't leave, do you dare to kill me?"

"You want to fight, can you win?"

"The muscle softening powder in his body has not completely dissipated, and his internal strength has not recovered. How can you and this little girl do that?"

Hearing this, Jiang Qingwu couldn't help but look at Yan Xiuchen.

Although it was only his back, it was clear that Yan Xiuchen's figure and steps lacked the support of his internal energy.

"Is it me who's making trouble? It's you who's making trouble."

"Have you ever thought about who would be injured and who would die if you and your people couldn't defeat them?"

Jiang Qingwu's scolding made Gu Yanbai suddenly sober up, and he subconsciously looked at Yan Xiuchen who was standing in front of him.

"He said he would stand before that person."

"He's a liar and you're an idiot. If what he said is true, why are you standing in the way?"

Gu Yanbai swallowed his saliva and gradually calmed down.

Seeing this, Jiang Qingwu pulled Gu Yanbai's arm and walked out, "All of you get out of the way, I'm saving Gu Yanbai."

Although Jiang Qingwu said so, no one gave way until Gu Yanbai gave the order.

Yan Xiuchen and Wanyue stood in front, while Jiang Qingwu held Gu Yanbai hostage and walked out.

But just as they reached the gate of the courtyard, countless crossbow arrows flew in from the air.
