Reborn to marry the regent and seize the throne as queen

Of course, I don’t want to.

Otherwise, he would not have been perfunctory with Jiang Qingwu and did not give Yan Xiuchen the slightest chance to stop him.

Nan Xiuye ​​saw through his thoughts accurately, looked around, and looked at the guards patrolling outside the door.

"We are only seven or eight people, but we are already very eye-catching."

"Although you have no status, everyone in the world knows that there is a man of noble status living in His Majesty's palace."

"We don't care. If we cause trouble, I'm afraid it will implicate His Majesty."

Gu Yanbai held the wine glass, looking solemn and uneasy, but he had no intention of leaving.

"He's always had a lot of trouble, and this is no exception."

Gu Yanbai drank his wine and waved to Nan Xiuye ​​as if he had made up his mind.

"Drink, here are the best wines and the best girls."

"A wild and unrestrained young man, full of lust for wine and meat, thinking of neither you nor your beloved, thinking of a life of drunkenness and dreamlessness!"

Nan Xiuye ​​watched Gu Yanbai pour wine into his mouth, sighed secretly, and waved to the door.

"Check those girls thoroughly. If there is nothing unusual... let them in."

Hearing this, Ah Wen bowed slightly and said, "Yes, I will go right away."

Seeing Ah Wen leave, Nan Xiuye ​​silently picked up the wine glass and asked, "Want to be drunk and dreamless for once?"

……

At that time, there was constant noise and bustle in Tianyi Pavilion near the South City Gate.

Tianyi Pavilion is one of the few escort agencies in South City.

And this escort agency is the base camp of King Suqing in Beijing.

After the disappearance of Shiwei Manor and Nan Xiuye, King Suqing quickly gathered people and established the Tianyi Pavilion Escort Agency.

After receiving a palm strike from Yan Xiuchen in the palace, although the blow was not fatal, King Suqing still hurriedly fled back to Tianyi Pavilion.

But I didn't expect that in the quiet of the night, Shen Wanrong would rush in with a knife.

"Get out of the way. If you don't, don't blame me for being rude." Shen Wanrong raised her hand with a knife, pushed away the person blocking her way, and went straight to the inner courtyard.

The door of King Suqing's room was tightly closed, and his confidants were guarding outside the door. Seeing Shen Wanrong's aggressive attitude, they rushed forward and blocked her way.

"How dare you! Back off..." The leading guard held a sword in his hand and pointed it at Shen Wanrong.

Shen Wanrong had a gloomy expression and glared angrily. She snorted coldly and moved forward unscrupulously.

"Kill, kill, if you have the guts, kill me."

Having said that, Shen Wanrong pushed the other person away and went straight into the house.

After pushing it but failing, he kicked the door open.

There was no light in the room. In the moonlight, Shen Wanrong saw King Suqing sitting cross-legged on the couch, closing his eyes and regulating his breathing.

"You killed Yan Xue? You actually killed her, she was only fourteen years old."

"She betrayed me!" King Suqing blurted out, then opened his eyes slightly and looked up at Shen Wanrong.

"I've said it before, anyone who betrays me must die."

"How do you think Yan Xiuchen and Jiang Qingwu found Fang Wen in the Queen Mother's palace?"

Shen Wanrong was furious and drew her sword to point it at King Suqing. "I don't care about your old stories."

"You have violated our covenant and cooperation."

"We, the Shen family and Yan Lin, will work for you and obey your orders. We will even give you our archers and weapon stores."

"What we want is for everyone to be safe and sound, to avenge the Shen family, to overturn the verdict, and to get rid of Gu Yanbai and Jiang Qingwu."

Shen Wanrong shouted angrily, approaching step by step, "What about now? You refused to let me kill Jiang Qingwu once or twice, and I endured it."

"I tolerated not letting you kill Gu Yanbai once or twice, but you actually killed my cousin..."

As she spoke, Shen Wanrong swung her sword and went forward, but just as she got close, King Suqing raised his hand and grasped the blade, breaking the sword with a slight force.

"Ah..." Shen Wanrong's arm was scratched by the flying broken sword.

As soon as she staggered to her feet, King Purge had already arrived and grabbed her neck fiercely.

"Who do you think you're talking to?"

"I represent the late emperor. Who are you?"

"You wanted cooperation, and you proposed the alliance."

"Who helped you when the whole city was wanted?"

"You want to change your appearance and return to this face. Who helped you?"

King Suqing's eyes flashed with ferocity as he stared at Shen Wanrong and pinched her hand even harder.

Only when he saw Shen Wanrong gasping for breath did he suddenly let go.

Shen Wanrong suddenly lost weight and fell to the ground with a thud, "Cough cough cough..."

"Your good cousin was bewitched by Jiang Qingwu. Not only did she reveal Fang Wen's whereabouts, she may have also said something else."

"For example, our plan to raid the Jingxingsi to rescue your father and eldest brother."

Shen Wanrong came back to her senses, startled, turned around and retorted, "No, it's impossible..."

"Even if she was bewitched, even if she told Fang Wen about it, she couldn't possibly tell us about our plan to raid the Beijing Criminal Division."

"What she wanted most was to rescue her elder brother and father..."

"Hmph..." King Suqing put his hands behind his back and glanced at Shen Wanrong who fell to the ground with contempt.

"No matter what, I will not take the risk and continue with my previous plan."

"If you still want to save your father and elder brother, just be obedient."

Shen Wanrong also seemed to wake up. She clenched her fists secretly and suppressed Yan Xue's death.

"Yes, I will listen to you and follow your instructions."

Upon hearing the voice, King Suqing turned around, squatted in front of Shen Wanrong, and lowered his voice to her.

"Go back and inform Yan Lin to come to Beijing as soon as possible."

"Also, we need to rearrange the plan to rescue your father."

"Not going to the Beijing Criminal Division?" Shen Wanrong looked at King Suqing in confusion.

"I won't go. If Yan Xue said anything, the Beijing Criminal Department will definitely set up a dragnet."

King Suqing seemed to be thinking about something, then he remembered something and moved closer to Shen Wanrong.

"Don't forget, I promised to save your father and elder brother so that they could help me deal with the Jiang family."

"Of course, even without you, we will not let the Jiang family go."

King Purge smiled and slowly stood up with satisfaction.

……

In the palace, Shangyang Palace.

Jiang Qingwu didn't sleep all night. He looked outside the door and paced in the bedroom.

It was not until dawn that he could no longer hold back, so he changed his clothes and went to Chengshu Hall.

But when they arrived at Chengshu Hall, they found that it was pitch black and Yan Xiuchen was not there at all.

Jiang Qingwu stood outside the palace, froze in his tracks, turned around and shouted to the guards in the distance, "Where is His Majesty?"

"Your Majesty, His Majesty...is not in Chengshu Palace?"

"Nonsense, what I mean is, when did His Majesty leave, and where did he go?"

"Your Majesty...Your Majesty has not been here. He has not been here since he left early yesterday morning."

Jiang Qingwu's heart tightened slightly. He looked at the guard, then turned and hurried away.

I wanted to find Zhong Quan to get to the bottom of it.

But as soon as he returned to Shangyang Palace, he ran into Zhong Quan and Yan Xiuchen.

Yan Xiuchen was followed by Jiuhan and Zhong Quan, who looked like they had just returned from outside.

Yan Xiuchen was wearing a cloak embroidered with dragon patterns, and his face looked a little ugly and slightly pale.

Sick? Injured? Could it be from the fight with King Purge last night...

Jiang Qingwu stared at Yan Xiuchen, feeling a little annoyed and worried.

But seeing Yan Xiuchen coming towards him with a smile on his face, he didn't ask anything directly.

"You...why didn't you sleep? Where did you go?"

"I'm asleep. It's almost dawn."

As he spoke, Jiang Qingwu glanced at Zhong Quan who was standing behind Yan Xiuchen. His sharp gaze made Zhong Quan lower his head instantly.

But Jiang Qingwu said nothing and went straight back to the palace.

Yan Xiuchen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, turned to look at Zhong Quan, and followed silently.

"I had some things to deal with last night, so..." Yan Xiuchen saw Jiang Qingwu sitting on the couch, and sat over while explaining.

But before he could finish his words, Jiang Qingwu pulled out the soft sword from Wanyue's waist.

With a "whoosh" sound, everyone held their breath.

Even Yan Xiuchen, who was about to sit down, froze.
