Reborn to marry the regent and seize the throne as queen

When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked, even Yan Xue who was standing beside her was stunned.

Yan Xiuchen's face suddenly darkened and he turned to look at the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother was also dumbfounded, and hurried over to greet her, "No, she is talking nonsense, I didn't say that, this medicine..."

"Your Majesty, do you mean that this medicine is not for your servant to take?"

The Queen Mother stared at Jiang Qingwu in a daze, then looked at Yan Xiuchen, "Of course it's not for her to eat."

"This medicine was not given by me."

Jiang Qingwu smiled when he heard the voice and turned the medicine bottle towards the Queen Mother.

"This medicine bottle belongs to the Imperial Medical Bureau, Queen Mother, why don't you check it? Then you will know who this medicine belongs to.

The Queen Mother opened her mouth and was suddenly speechless.

Originally, the Empress Dowager asked the Imperial Medical Bureau for this poison, and they even forgot to change the bottle.

Seeing that the Queen Mother was speechless, Yan Xiuchen naturally would not really check the medicine in the bottle.

If you trace it back to the source, it was simply that the Queen Mother was not satisfied with her being the future Queen.

"The Queen Mother has been in better health recently, so I have withdrawn the people who are taking care of you."

"But it seems that he is still not well."

As he spoke, Yan Xiuchen called out to the door, "Is Jiuhan back?"

"Godfather, I'm here." Jiuhan hurried in from outside and walked towards Yan Xiuchen.

"Notify Li Wei to double the number of guards on the Queen Mother's side. The Queen Mother is not in good health, so there is no need to go out unless necessary."

"Yes, son, I'll arrange it right away."

Hearing Yan Xiuchen's words, the Queen Mother slammed her palm on the table and said, "You are really crazy. I am the Queen Mother."

"You are under house arrest. Do you have any respect or understanding of the rules?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Xiuchen put away his golden copper fan with a rustle and bowed to the Queen Mother, "The Queen Mother is naturally the most honorable."

"But Dayan's laws are not made up out of thin air."

"If the Queen Mother wants to punish the slaves around her, she must find a reason. Jiang Qingwu is still the legitimate daughter of Shunqing Marquis Mansion at the very least."

"Her father is still fighting for Dayan on the front line, but the Queen Mother wants her life with just one sentence."

"When did Dayan have such a rule?"

"You..." The Queen Mother was speechless after being rebuked, and then changed the subject, "Yes, I gave him the medicine, but it was not for him to take. I asked her to give it to Gu Yanbai."

"Gu Yanbai is just one of your retainers. To put it bluntly, he is just an ordinary person. He offended me before. I want to punish him. Why not?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Xiuchen frowned and his expression became even uglier. Before he could say anything, Jiang Qingwu slammed the table.

With a "bang", the teacup on the table was instantly shattered by the palm force.

Several people were startled, especially Yan Xue, who subconsciously hid behind the emperor.

Gu Yanbai, who had just arrived at the Queen Mother's place, heard a loud noise as soon as he reached the door and subconsciously stopped.

"Ordinary people? Are ordinary people's lives not lives? Can ordinary people be killed at will?"

Jiang Qingwu suddenly became furious, as if possessed by an evil spirit, and moved towards the Queen Mother step by step.

"Did Gu Yanbai offend you? How did he offend you? Why did he offend you..."

"If you didn't provoke him, why would he provoke you? Queen Mother, how did you provoke him? Do you dare to tell me?"

Jiang Qingwu pressed on step by step, speaking sharply.

The Queen Mother was at a loss for a moment, not to mention saying anything in response. She was so frightened that she almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Nanny Zhong behind her caught her in time.

Seeing this, Jiang Qingwu suddenly came to his senses, calmed himself down, stood still, and bowed to the empress dowager.

"I was a rude woman at the time, and I am willing to accept the punishment. I will leave the palace and return home to reflect on my mistakes."

"Queen Mother, Your Majesty, I will take my leave."

Having said that, Jiang Qingwu stood up and turned to walk out.

But after taking two steps, he saw Yan Xue hiding behind the emperor. He then stopped and looked at Yan Xue with a sharp gaze.

"The fourth princess is here to see me?"

Yan Xue suddenly came back to her senses, shook her head repeatedly, and waved her hands hurriedly, "No, no, no, I... I am accompanying my father, I am here to pay my respects, I am here to pay my respects to the Queen Mother."

Jiang Qingwu turned to look at the Queen Mother, uttered an "oh" and bowed slightly, "It's almost dark, Princess, please come early next time when you pay your respects."

Yan Xue watched Jiang Qingwu walk away, swallowing secretly. After she came to her senses, she felt extremely annoyed.

"Is this woman crazy? That's the Queen Mother."

Yan Xue scolded, turned around and grabbed the emperor's robe, "Father, you don't care about this, she is in front of you..."

"She accepted the punishment and went back to reflect on her mistakes. What else do you want?"

Hearing this, Yan Xiuchen secretly sighed and walked towards Yan Xue, "Fourth Princess, do you still want justice?"

"I have already asked Jiuhan to invite the guards who were present in the secret chamber at that time. If she really offended the princess..."

Yan Xue was startled for a moment, then smiled apologetically and said, "Forget it, forget it, it's just a small matter, a small matter."

"She even dared to teach the Queen Mother a lesson, how dare I ask her for justice."

"Well, I... your son, I will withdraw first."

Yan Xue saluted, then took small steps and ran away very quickly as if escaping.

But he didn't pay attention for a moment and bumped into Gu Yanbai who was about to chase Jiang Qingwu when he went out.

Gu Yanbai was fine, but Yan Xue was thin and fell directly to the ground, hard.

"Ah... who? Who is so blind..." Yan Xue shouted angrily, and turned around to see Gu Yanbai who had just stood still.

He was dressed in a white brocade robe, holding a green jade flute in his hand, and he was handsome and elegant.

For Yu Yanxue, although she was still young and had feelings for him, she had never seen a man like Gu Yanbai.

For a moment, I was actually obsessed with it.

However, Gu Yanbai disagreed.

He frowned and looked the person up and down, and when he saw the clothes made for a princess, he couldn't help but realize something.

"Yan Xue? Fourth Princess, are you the one who wants to beat Jiang Qingwu?" Gu Yanbai sneered contemptuously and walked towards Yan Xue.

Seeing this, the two maids rushed towards Yan Xue.

Yan Xue also suddenly came back to her senses, stumbled to her feet, and looked at Gu Yanbai.

"What do you mean, are you going to support her?"

Yan Xue looked at Gu Yanbai arrogantly, and her face turned red as she looked him up and down.

"You... who are you? The inner courtyard of the imperial palace is not a place for an outsider like you to come."

Gu Yanbai snorted in annoyance, moved closer to him and lowered his voice.

"Little girl, I advise you to be quiet and don't provoke Jiang Qingwu, otherwise, your good days will be over."

Yan Xue stared in a daze at Gu Yanbai who was approaching her. Before she could come to her senses, Gu Yanbai had already turned and left.

Yan Xue was so angry that she couldn't speak. She pointed at Gu Yanbai's back and asked the girl beside her.

"Who... who is he?"

"Princess...he, he is Gu Yanbai, a retainer of His Royal Highness the Regent. I heard that he is as close to His Royal Highness as a brother."

"A retainer? Gu Yanbai? Isn't he the person the Queen Mother wants to execute?" Yan Xue was startled, then quickly chased after him out the door.

Yan Xue jogged all the way, looking around, and soon saw Jiang Qingwu and Gu Yanbai on the way out of the palace.

"You, you stop right there." Yan Xue's shout was very harsh.
