Reborn to marry the regent and seize the throne as queen

Jiang Qingwu was forced to stagger and tried to break free from Yan Xiujin's restraints, but met his eyes full of anger.

"What on earth do you want to do? If you know that it is murder to silence the witness, why are you still helping Gu Yanbai to investigate?"

"Do you know that if we continue to investigate, all those who know about it will die..."

Jiang Qingwu sneered in surprise, and his thoughts gradually became clear.

"You don't blame the person who killed someone, but you blame the person who saved him? Was it me who killed him?"

Yan Xiujin was also annoyed, and completely forgot about the rules of etiquette. He grabbed Jiang Qingwu's wrist and kept moving closer.

"It was not you who killed the man, but he died because of you."

Jiang Qingwu sneered, pulled his hand back abruptly, turned around and avoided Yan Xiujin, "Humph, nonsense."

"You mean, if I get robbed in the middle of the night, I shouldn't blame the robbers, but blame myself for going out late at night?"

As he spoke, Jiang Qingwu looked towards Yan Xiujin, his eyes full of coldness.

"Are you still trying to say that if we don't get to the bottom of this and uncover the truth and secrets, no one will die?"

"But if there were no secrets from the beginning, how could there be today's investigation?"

"Why was the Gu family implicated, and why were Concubine Xijia and Queen Mengjia secretly executed?"

"Gu Yanbai was displaced and suffered a lot in Fuye. Moreover, I lost my memory because of this. Who should I ask for justice from?"

Jiang Qingwu repeatedly defended himself and glanced at Yan Xiujin with contempt in his eyes.

"I know that you are all having a hard time. You, Nan Xiuye, Yan Xiuchen, each of you is suffering in different ways."

"But were these caused by Gu Yanbai? Was it me?"

"You don't look for the culprit, the one who started it, but just want to cover it up."

"Now, the secret of Dayan is like fire wrapped in paper, it can no longer be hidden."

Yan Xiujin's face was filled with astonishment, as if he had lost the ability to think in an instant.

He couldn't believe how this woman Jiang Qingwu could be so eloquent that she choked him and made him speechless.

"Emperor Xuanhe was killed, the Queen Mother was poisoned, and even the five princesses who were unaware of the incident were to be executed."

Jiang Qingwu said as he walked closer to Yan Xiujin, "The Queen Mother... is his first wife."

"I once thought that the Gu family had done something extremely treasonous, forcing him to be bloodthirsty and kill continuously."

"But now, I don't think...the one you believe in and respect is a benevolent king."

"Not even a good father or husband."

"I have let down the people of the world, my wife and children, and I am not a good person at all."

Jiang Qingwu approached aggressively, then turned around and walked away angrily.

When Yan Xiujin saw the man walking away, he suddenly came to his senses and quickly chased after him.

"Even if what you said is true, there are some things that must not be announced to the world. Give me the prescription in your hand."

When Jiang Qingwu heard Yan Xiujin's voice behind him, he suddenly remembered to give the prescription to Wanyue.

"The prescription was burned while saving people." Jiang Qingwu agreed and left at a faster pace.

"I don't believe what the Empress said. If the Empress doesn't hand it over, I won't be polite."

When Jiang Qingwu heard the shouting behind him, he couldn't help but become a little alert, and then he realized that Yan Xiujin was approaching.

Jiang Qingwu reacted quickly. When the fan came at him, he immediately turned around to dodge it and raised his hand to fight with Yan Xiujin.

He had no weapons, his previous injuries had not fully healed, and he was choked by the smoke while putting out the fire. Now he had no way to deal with Yan Xiu Jin.

After just a few moves, he was defeated and Yan Xiujin grabbed his hands tightly.

"I have offended the Empress's wife. Once I get the things, I will definitely apologize..."

Having said that, Yan Xiu Jin turned around, tore off his thin shirt, and prepared to tie Jiang Qing Wu up.

"You are so outrageous, Yan Xiujin, let me go..." Jiang Qingwu struggled, then raised his leg and kicked Yan Xiujin on the head.

But just as he tore off the thin shirt in his hand, Yan Xiujin slapped him with a palm.

Jiang Qingwu could have dodged it, but suddenly she saw something and without thinking much, she took off the golden hairpin on her head and walked towards Yan Xiujin.

Yan Xiujin's face was startled, and he suddenly gathered up murderous intent, and the palm strike was powerful.

After being hit by a palm, Jiang Qingwu fell heavily to the ground.

Almost at the same time, the man in black behind Yan Xiujin dropped his weapon and fell to the ground.

Yan Xiujin was startled when he heard the noise behind him.

When I turned around, I found that the man in black had Jiang Qingwu's golden hairpin stuck in his throat and was dead.

"You...you were saving me just now..." Yan Xiu Jin looked at Jiang Qingwu in disbelief.

“…No, what else?” Jiang Qingwu uttered a few words, his eyes went dark, and he fell down.

"Imperial sister-in-law...Imperial sister-in-law, Jiang Qingwu, wake up..." Yan Xiujin rushed forward subconsciously.

Seeing that the person had completely fainted, he didn't even bother to search for the prescription. He just picked the person up and hurriedly left Fenghe Palace.

Yan Xiuchen came back in the evening, but when he arrived at Shangyang Palace, the sky had changed.

Yan Xiuchen was wearing casual clothes and a black cloak, followed by Jiuhan and Zhong Quan, and hurried to the bedroom.

Yan Xiujin and Nan Xiuye ​​were standing outside the hall.

"Greetings, brother." Yan Xiujin and Nan Xiuye ​​knelt down in greeting at the same time.

Yan Xiuchen looked at the two of them, said nothing, and strode into the bedroom.

"Greetings, Your Majesty..." Imperial Physician Li and Wan Yue, along with the servants in the room, knelt on the ground.

Yan Xiuchen ignored him and sat beside the bed, looking at Jiang Qingwu, whose face was pale, breath was weak, and who was sleeping soundly. His face suddenly turned darker.

When he turned around and looked at Imperial Physician Li, Imperial Physician Li hurried forward and knelt in front of Yan Xiuchen.

"Your Majesty, don't worry. I have already given you acupuncture and moxibustion to protect your heart meridians. Your life is not in danger."

"It's just that the queen has been injured repeatedly. This time... the smoke penetrated her heart and lungs, and she also suffered internal injuries, which damaged her foundation."

"I'm afraid I'll need to rest and recuperate for several months."

Yan Xiuchen secretly clenched his fists and moved closer to Imperial Physician Li.

"You mean, her injuries are serious and she will need months of recuperation to recover?"

"It depends on the recovery. I can use acupuncture and medicinal baths to heal the wound, but the fastest treatment will take more than a month."

"During this period, there must not be any more damage."

Yan Xiuchen suppressed his annoyance and looked at Li Yuyi with a frown, "You will stay in Shangyang Palace for the next few days and guard the queen for me. Don't let her make any mistakes."

"Also, what about Gu Yanbai? How is he?"

"Young Master... Young Master is fine. He only has minor injuries. It's just..."

The imperial physician hesitated, and Yan Xiuchen's face was also filled with worry, "Speak."

"It's just that the young master was stimulated, his breathing was disordered, and he was unable to suppress the poison in his body."

"The five poisons backfired, causing him to be unconscious now."

"I, your humble servant, do not know what to do."

Upon hearing the voice, Yan Xiuchen sighed heavily, pondered for a moment, then suddenly stood up and walked out.

"Someone is coming..."

"Your subordinates are here..." Jiuye and Jiuhan bowed and saluted.

"Jiuye, go to the Jingxingsi in person and bring Xu He here. Tell him that if he doesn't come, Gu Yanbai will die."

"Yes, my subordinate will go right away."

Yan Xiuchen looked in the direction of Changle Palace, then turned and gestured to Nan Xiuye, "Go and guard him."

"Yes, Brother Huang."

Seeing Nan Xiuye ​​leave, Yan Xiujin felt even more guilty. He lowered his head slightly and walked towards Yan Xiuchen.

Just as she was about to say something, Wanyue's voice came from the bedroom, "Miss...Miss, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the Queen is awake..."

Yan Xiuchen was startled and turned away in a hurry.

Yan Xiu Jin should have followed etiquette and not entered the inner room, but he subconsciously followed Yan Xiu Jin into the bedroom.
