Reborn to marry the regent and seize the throne as queen

Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother pointed at Gu Yanbai in rage.

"You, what did you say?"

Gu Yanbai snorted coldly and ignored the Queen Mother. Instead, he turned to look at Jiang Qingwu, "Is anything wrong?"

Jiang Qingwu stared at Gu Yanbai in a daze, shook his head and looked at the imperial guards in the hall behind him, "All of you retreat."

When everyone heard the sound, they hurried away.

"Are you crazy? How dare you speak to the Queen Mother like that?"

"Not crazy." Gu Yanbai said calmly, turned to look at the queen, and then looked at Jiang Qingwu.

"I see the Queen has been sitting for a long time. It's time for her to go for a walk."

"You accompany the Queen to walk in the garden. I have something to say to the Queen Mother."

Gu Yanbai looked at Jiang Qingwu steadily with a firm gaze, and Jiang Qingwu could not help but disagree.

Seeing this determined look, Jiang Qingwu felt a little frightened. He looked at the Queen Mother, then turned to Gu Yanbai and lowered his voice.

"I don't know what you are going to do, but she has raised Yan Xiuchen and is wholeheartedly supporting him, so don't do anything rash."

"Don't worry, she's an old woman, I won't bully the weak."

Gu Yanbai echoed and looked coldly at the empress dowager who was sitting high up.

Jiang Qingwu sighed secretly and nodded slightly to the Queen.

Jiang Qingwu agreed, so the queen naturally listened to Jiang Qingwu.

When the Queen Mother saw that the Queen was about to leave, she stood up and spoke to her, but before she could say anything, the Queen bowed to the Queen Mother.

"Your Highness, I will take my leave first."

"Hey, you..."

The Queen Mother watched the Queen leave with Jiang Qingwu, and couldn't help but look around. Only then did she realize that there was no one else in the palace.

Even Nanny Zhong, who was beside the Empress Dowager, was kicked and had to be helped down by the servants.

The Queen Mother looked at Gu Yanbai who was approaching step by step, and looked at him in panic and confusion, "Who are you? What did you mean by what you just said?"

"What do you mean, do you know me?"

Gu Yanbai sneered, staring at the Queen Mother with sharp eyes, "You really don't recognize me?"

"Did you set the fire in Xifeng Palace that year?"

When the Queen Mother heard what Gu Yanbai said, her face turned pale instantly and she fell onto the phoenix chair with a thud.

"You... you are, it's impossible, you are already dead, you have been dead for a long time..."

"Haha, it seems that the Queen Mother does know a lot."

Gu Yanbai lifted his robe and moved closer to the empress dowager.

"You are so cruel. You burned more than 30 people to death in Xifeng Palace. Now, you are setting fire to the secret pavilion and trying to burn Jiang Qingwu to death."

"A person like you can be the queen mother and the mother of the world?"

The Queen Mother looked at the aggressive Gu Yanbai and couldn't help feeling guilty. Her face turned pale as paper as she avoided his gaze.

"Impossible, you are not him, you are not that little evildoer, who are you? You are here to avenge them, right?"

Gu Yanbai looked at the Queen Mother with sharp eyes, pulled out the dagger from his waist, and pointed it at her, "You don't need to know who I am."

"I ask, you answer. If you don't answer, I will stab you until you bleed to death."

The Queen Mother swallowed her saliva, raised her eyes and shouted, "You dare! Yan Xiuchen will not let you go."

"Do you think that if I am really the little evildoer you mentioned, he will stand on my side, or on... your side?"

"Do you think he cares about me, or does he care about... a decorative Queen Mother like you?"

The Queen Mother's heart suddenly sank, as if she remembered something. She looked at Gu Yanbai with wide eyes in horror.

"You...you really are...are you that little thing?"

"So what if it is, so what if it isn't, I ask you... why did the former dynasty and the harem erase everything from the Xifeng Palace?"

The Queen Mother shrank back, not daring to look at Yan Bai, and kept shaking her head, "No, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know..."

The Queen Mother murmured repeatedly and stood up to leave.

Seeing this, Gu Yanbai pulled the empress dowager over and pushed her back onto the chair.

But with just a slight push, the Queen Mother fell onto the chair and fainted.

I don’t know if he fainted from fright or was really knocked unconscious.

"Old thing, why are you pretending?" Gu Yanbai shouted, pulling the empress dowager up by the collar of her clothes.

After making sure that she was really unconscious, he suddenly let her go and silently retracted the dagger.

Although Jiang Qingwu had come out, he was still feeling restless outside Fenghe Palace.

Although she also had many questions, she had not found any answers for so long and gradually got used to it.

The Queen saw her looking at the Queen Mother's Palace from time to time, and couldn't help but laugh softly, "Who is this Gu Yanbai?"

"I see that you care about him very much, and he cares about you very much."

Jiang Qingwu came back to his senses and couldn't help but smile, "The two of us? We just love each other."

"He cares about Yan Xiuchen, and I care about Yan Xiuchen as well."

The Queen frowned slightly and looked at Jiang Qingwu in confusion, "What is the relationship between him and Your Highness?"

Jiang Qingwu was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but sneer, then thought seriously and said, "Friends, good brothers."

"Good brother?" The queen asked in confusion, but seeing that Jiang Qingwu was also in trouble, she smiled and said nothing.

Seeing this, Jiang Qingwu quickly changed the subject, "Before, the Queen wasn't injured, right?"

"These days, I have been busy acting and dealing with Yan Lin, and have not taken much care of the Queen."

"Nothing's wrong. Both this palace and the Second Prince are fine. Don't worry."

Jiang Qingwu nodded, and then remembered something, "After a few days, when the court is stable, His Highness will give the second prince the title of prince, and he will have no worries for the rest of his life."

The Queen raised her lips in satisfaction, "Thank you for planning with the Regent."

As the two were talking, Gu Yanbai walked out of the Empress Dowager's palace in a dejected manner.

He paced slowly, with his face downcast as if thinking about something.

Seeing this, the Queen gestured to Jiang Qingwu, "You go ahead. I'll go back first."

"Okay." Jiang Qingwu bowed slightly to the queen, then turned and walked towards Gu Yanbai.

"How is it, Queen Mother, is everything alright?"

Gu Yanbai came back to his senses and shook his head in a daze, "Nothing happened, he just fainted. I didn't get any information out of him, but he was frightened to death."

“It’s also a paper tiger.”

As he said that, Gu Yanbai turned his head and looked at Jiang Qingwu, "From now on, you don't have to be so respectful to her. She is not a good person."

"You...you and the Queen Mother, do you have a grudge?"

"Before, you lived in the palace, right, Queen Mother..."

"Don't ask, I didn't get anything out of it."

Gu Yanbai smiled bitterly and shook his head. He was about to leave, but the next moment he saw the man in black approaching him and Jiang Qingwu.

In broad daylight, there were more than a dozen people wearing black clothes and masks.

Gu Yanbai panicked and took a step back, grabbing Jiang Qingwu's wrist.

Jiang Qingwu was also stunned. He looked around and realized that there were no Imperial Guards nearby.

And Wanyue was the only one beside her.

"This is the imperial palace. You are so brave. Who are you?" Jiang Qingwu shouted loudly.

But the other party didn't say a word and just drew his sword and rushed forward.

Seeing this, Wan Yue drew the sword from her waist and stood in front of Jiang Qingwu.

"Are you going to kill my people? Or Fuye's people?"

Gu Yanbai murmured, pulling out the dagger and stuffing it into Jiang Qingwu's hand, "Here you go."

"No, not those people!" Jiang Qingwu looked at the other party, and then his eyes changed and said, "It's... like, like a master from the Imperial Palace."

Gu Yanbai was also a little stunned. Seeing the approaching man in black, he didn't care about anything else and went to meet him with the jade flute in hand.
