Reborn to marry the regent and seize the throne as queen

Gu Yanbai didn't expect Bai Ruosheng to come out from inside.

He seemed certain that Bai Ruosheng was the man in black from before.

But when he saw Bai Ruosheng's confused and bewildered look, the speculation in his heart instantly dissipated.

Yan Xiuchen and Jiang Qingwu were also confused. Seeing Gu Yanbai standing there stiffly, Jiang Qingwu quickly interrupted to smooth things over.

"It's nothing, it should be a small matter, let's talk about it tomorrow." Jiang Qingwu agreed and looked towards Yan Xiuchen.

Yan Xiuchen also came back to his senses. Seeing Gu Yanbai leaning gently against the door, he hurriedly supported him and said, "You are injured. Go back to Beiyuan first."

Gu Yanbai didn't say anything. He pulled his hand back from Yan Xiuchen, took a step forward, grabbed Jiang Qingwu, and dragged him out.

"Hey, you...you pull me..." Jiang Qingwu looked at Gu Yanbai, and seeing that the situation was not right, he did not try to break free. He turned around and shouted hurriedly at Bai Ruosheng.

"It's too late. You should have a good rest. I will accompany you tomorrow."

"Okay." Bai Ruosheng agreed, looking at the three people walking away, his gaze moved to the maid A'luo beside him, and his eyes suddenly became fierce.

Seeing this, A'Luo hurriedly moved closer, but as soon as she got there, Bai Ruosheng slapped her in the face.

With a "pop" sound, Luo covered half of her face and immediately knelt on the ground.

But Bai Ruosheng didn't say a word and went straight back to the house.

Gu Yanbai kept holding Jiang Qingwu's wrist, dragging her without saying a word.

Yan Xiuchen followed behind him, also looking confused.

He looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he reached out and grabbed Gu Yanbai.

"Aze, what happened?"

"Yeah, let me go first. If you have anything to say, tell me slowly. Are you hurt?"

After hearing the two people's shouts, Gu Yanbai's thoughts calmed down a little. He slowly slowed down his pace and let go of Jiang Qingwu.

"Nothing, it's just..." Gu Yanbai hesitated, then cleared his throat and looked at Jiang Qingwu, "Ahem, I'm just jealous."

"Before, when you came to the palace, you came to see Ah Chen, and you were always flirting with him all day long..."

"Also, in the past, you would drink with me, listen to me play the piano, and ask Tan Xi if I had eaten..."

"Now that he's here, you've been in Nanyuan all day, with Bai Ruosheng on your mind. Ah Chen is your fiancé, and I... I saved your life..."

Jiang Qingwu stared at Gu Yanbai blankly, speechless for a moment.

He hadn't yet explained to Yan Xiuchen what happened in the hot spring pool in the evening.

It was indeed as Gu Yanbai said, after Bai Ruosheng appeared, a large half of her heart was indeed taken away.

But this is different from what happened to Yan Xiuchen.

These are clearly two different things.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Gu Qing just felt that she owed him something, so she wanted to take good care of him and make up for it."

Seeing that Jiang Qingwu was speechless, Yan Xiuchen started to speak.

Jiang Qingwu came back to his senses, turned around and said to Yan Xiuchen seriously, "I have been thinking about him these past two days and have indeed neglected you."

"but……"

Yan Xiuchen sighed softly, held Jiang Qingwu's hand and interrupted her, "Okay, I know everything."

As he spoke, Yan Xiuchen gestured to Jiang Qingwu, "You should go and rest first. You still have to accompany Bai Ruosheng to look at the house tomorrow."

"I have already notified Luo Ming and the others to pick me up. I haven't been home for two days. I have to go back to the Marquis' Mansion to take a look."

Jiang Qingwu said, looking towards Gu Yanbai, "Are you really okay? If you are, I'm leaving."

"Stop talking nonsense. Let's go and be careful on the road." Gu Yanbai leaned against a rockery beside him, as if he was trying to support himself. He pretended to be relaxed and waved at Jiang Qingwu.

But as soon as Jiang Qingwu left, Gu Yanbai spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Aze..."

Seeing this, Yan Xiuchen hurried forward and said, "I'll help you, let's go..."

"Come here, ask the imperial physician to go to Beiyuan."

"Yes, Your Highness."

When I returned to Beiyuan, the imperial physician was already waiting there.

Sitting on the couch, Gu Yanbai's face looked rather ugly, pale, and he was supporting himself somewhat weakly.

"Young Master has an old lung disease, the internal injury is really serious..."

As the imperial physician spoke, he stood up with a nervous look on his face, hurriedly took the medicine bottle, and handed over a pill.

"Heart-protecting pill, young master, take one first."

"I will prescribe the medicine right away."

When Yan Xiuchen saw the imperial physician leave, he lifted his robe and hurriedly sat down opposite Gu Yanbai.

"What happened? Where is the Red Guard? How could you be injured like this?"

Gu Yanbai saw Yan Xiuchen's serious face and worried look, and then suddenly he heard a light laugh.

"Don't be so nervous, I'm fine."

"If it weren't for the Red Guard, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to come back."

Yan Xiuchen stared at Gu Yanbai, a little anxious, "You insisted on seeing Bai Ruosheng despite your injuries, what's wrong?"

Gu Yanbai didn't want to say it, but seeing Yan Xiuchen's insightful questioning, he hesitated for a moment and said, "Bai Ruosheng... I suspect that Bai Ruosheng is not the real Bai Ruosheng."

Yan Xiuchen's face was gloomy, his brows were furrowed, and he looked at Gu Yanbai in disbelief.

"You mean, Bai Ruosheng is fake?"

Gu Yanbai sighed softly, "To be precise, I suspect that this Bai Ruosheng is not the Bai Asheng who saved Gu Qing in the Sanshui City dungeon."

Yan Xiuchen chuckled and shook his head, "How could he be fake, Gu Qing..."

Before Yan Xiuchen could finish his words, Gu Yanbai interrupted him.

"Gu Qing? When the little girl was in the dungeon of Sanshui City, she was drowsy and unconscious. She was not conscious."

"Besides, it's dark in that place. Even if she has seen him, she probably won't be able to remember him."

Hearing this, Yan Xiuchen retorted, "Let's not talk about Gu Qing, what about you? Haven't you seen him? Don't you remember him clearly?"

Gu Yanbai felt somewhat helpless, and patiently moved closer to her, "Shen Wanrong, I know best how you became another person."

"The art of changing one's appearance is not a fantasy."

Yes, Shen Wanrong can become another person.

Now, it is entirely possible that it is another person, who has changed his appearance and become Bai Ruosheng.

Yan Xiuchen fell into deep thought with some fear, and sat aside silently, "Where is the evidence?"

"Isn't it enough that he doesn't recognize me?" Gu Yanbai blurted out and sighed thoughtfully.

"I met him several times when I was in Sang Country."

"Not just from a distance, I talked to him for a long time during the few times we met."

“Although most of the time, I was the one doing the talking.”

"He's a very cold person. He doesn't get close to anyone, and he doesn't care much about me. He even hates me a little."

"But I can see that he is not cold-hearted."

"He has no knowledge of etiquette, no high level of understanding, no knowledge of expensive spices, and no knowledge of expensive teas and wines."

"His indifference and his aloofness are not actually arrogance, but... a kind of despair."

"It seemed like he had no intention of pleasing anyone or living a good life."

"The eyes are even more dim."

"So when I later heard that he had died, I wasn't surprised."

Gu Yanbai said, grabbing Yan Xiuchen's arm, "But now this Bai Ruosheng..."

"Tasting tea, knowing things, eating and taking medicine, everything he said and did, he was nothing like an ordinary citizen of Sanshui City."

"His knowledge, bearing, temperament and tone are like that of a noble son from an aristocratic family."

"More importantly, he gives me a very sharp feeling, even though he is still injured now."
