Reborn to marry the regent and seize the throne as queen

Jiang Qingwu's words immediately brought Yan Chong back to his senses and also completely annoyed him.

Seeing Jiang Qingwu standing there unharmed, bursts of cold laughter came from everyone.

"As expected, the disciple is better than the master. I never thought that I was soft-hearted that day and left such a disaster behind..."

"You mean to say that I'm old and it's time to die, right?"

Yan Chong sneered, and after he finished speaking, he waved his hand behind him.

The next moment, the doors behind the counter opened one by one.

Gu Yanbai was pushed out by killers on both sides.

His face looked bad and pale. He had a glass of wine in his hand and was drunk. He even staggered when he walked.

Seeing Jiang Qingwu, Gu Yanbai seemed to sober up a little, and came towards him with a smile full of surprise.

"Gu Qing, you are here... Are you here to save me?"

"Are you stupid? Why did you save me?" Gu Yanbai said as he staggered and almost fell in front of Jiang Qingwu.

Seeing this, Jiang Qingwu stepped forward and supported the man. "How are you? Are you injured? Why are you so drunk?"

"No, I'm not hurt. You...you should go away. What are you doing here?"

Gu Yanbai pushed Jiang Qingwu away while being a little drunk. He wanted to sit on the chair, but he lost his balance and sat directly on the ground.

"They are right. I should have died long ago..."

Jiang Qingwu's heart tightened slightly, and he turned to look at Yan Chong, "What did you do?"

"I didn't do anything. I was just researching an antidote for the Heart-Erosion Gu."

"His blood is the key to making medicine. Drain his blood every two hours. Drain it three times. Boil the blood for an hour and soak it in a jar along with the medicinal materials."

"I'm making an antidote for Yan Xiuchen, you should support me."

Jiang Qingwu's expression suddenly changed. He looked at Gu Yanbai lying on the ground and grabbed his wrist.

Sure enough, there was a wound on the wrist, which was simply bandaged.

"You let his blood flow?"

"It was just once..." Yan Chong said, sitting on the chair calmly, "Besides, he was willing to do it."

How is it possible that I want to do this?

Jiang Qingwu leaned towards Gu Yanbai and snatched the jar of wine from his hand.

"You are crazy. You did this willingly? Do you know that you will die..."

"Didn't I tell you that I deserved to die?"

"If he wants to kill me, I'll let him kill me..."

Although Gu Yanbai looked drunk, his words seemed sober, full of sadness and despair.

Jiang Qingwu looked at Gu Yanbai who snatched the wine jar from his hand, vaguely realized something, suddenly stood up and walked towards Yan Chong.

"What did you say to him? Or what did you do? He couldn't have willingly let you bleed him like this..."

Upon hearing the voice, Yan Chong raised a smug smile and leisurely took the tea brought to him by the eunuch.

"I didn't say anything. I just told him that he was the illegitimate child of Gu Xijia and Lu Changqing."

"Back then, I was so busy burning that little bastard to death that I didn't kill him in time..."

Jiang Qingwu looked at Yan Chong with dizzy pupils and clenched his fists in extreme anger, "How can you... say that."

“Why can’t I say that?

"It was him. After seeing me, he kept asking me if it was me who had caused him to be abandoned in Fuye."

"Did I have to hunt him down for so many years?"

Jiang Qingwu listened and suddenly remembered something. He stepped forward and said, "Yan Xiuchen has not revealed anything until now."

"Before I lost my memory, I vaguely remember that you once issued an edict."

"Ten days from now, Yan Xiuchen will bring Gu Yanbai with you to the Eastern Territory to fight."

"The East Territory is close to Fuyeh, and you forced Yan Xiuchen to leave him in Fuyeh, right?"

"Left it there? Hehehe..."

Yan Chong sneered with a stern look in his eyes, and Gu Yanbai behind him seemed to be a little more sober. He leaned back in his chair and looked at this side with bloodshot eyes.

"They say Fuye is hell on earth, but even so, I won't let him live in Fuye."

"I gave Yan Xiuchen a poison pill. Either Gu Yanbai eats it or brings back his body."

"Either he eats it himself, and I just pretend I don't have this son, but Gu Yanbai will still die."

"I told you, as long as he gives the poison to Gu Yanbai and brings back his body, I will give him the throne..."

"I wanted to test him, so I gave him this opportunity, but I didn't expect that he would take Gu Yanbai directly to the Fuye border."

"I knocked him out, tied him to a dead tree in Fuye, and swallowed poison myself before returning."

Jiang Qingwu looked at Yan Chong in disbelief, half of his body feeling numb.

He always knew that Yan Xiuchen had no choice but to do so, but only at this moment did he realize the truth.

"He left me to me and asked me to help him... because he was afraid... that Yan Su would kill me!" Gu Yanbai murmured in a low voice, his eyes flickering as if he suddenly realized something.

Upon hearing this, Yan Chong threw the teacup in his hand away, "Humph, you rebellious son!"

"He knew that if he couldn't bring back the body, I would severely punish him, but he actually sent you to the Fuye people."

Yan Chong walked past Jiang Qingwu and took a few quick steps towards Gu Yanbai, looking at him viciously.

"Haha, great, that's great. If I kill you, I will have to enter Fuyeh territory and start a war with them..."

"He really racked his brains to keep you alive..."

Gu Yanbai came back to his senses, raised his eyes and choked up, "You...what did you do to him?"

"Why did the palace record that he returned to the capital with serious injuries?"

Yan Chong sneered and sighed softly, "After all, he is my biological son. I am disabled, and several capable sons are also dead."

"Now, Yan Xiuchen is the only one who is both civil and military, has made great contributions in battles, and knows how to govern a country. How can I bear to kill him?"

"I gave him the antidote, and then had his hands and feet crippled. I secretly brought him back to the capital and locked him up in the inner prison water dungeon..."

"You lunatic, he is your biological son..." Jiang Qingwu shouted angrily and rushed forward.

But Yan Chong suddenly turned around, glaring angrily, and said, "Why did my son help this evil creature? This is the punishment he deserves."

"No, it's not enough, not enough!"

"I want someone to set his bones. After they are healed, they become useless again, and then they are set again. This cycle repeats over and over again... for two whole years..."

"Oh, yes, the two years you were in Fuye were exactly the two years he was in the water dungeon..."

"It wasn't just two years. In less than a year, he became emaciated and weak, on the verge of death..."

"There's no other way. I can't let him die. I have to keep him alive. So I asked someone to heal him... and then throw him back..."

Jiang Qingwu felt as if something was stabbing her heart as she looked at Yan Chong who was like a madman, and at his hideous face.

At this moment, there was no fear, only anger, "Why, why did you do this, why did you treat your son like this..."

"Do you still have humanity? Are you still qualified to be a father?"

Yan Chong suddenly came to his senses and grabbed Jiang Qingwu's neck.

"Godmother..."

"girl……"

Jiuhan and Wanyue stepped forward subconsciously, and Gu Yanbai also stood up suddenly.

But the next moment they found that Jiang Qingwu did not resist and Yan Chong had no intention of killing him, so they all stopped.

"It's not that I'm not worthy of being a father, it's that he's not worthy of being a son..."

"If he was really my son, he wouldn't have secretly hidden Gu Yanbai back then, and he wouldn't have secretly let the people from the Lu and Gu families go..."

"He and Gu Yanbai are not brothers at all, why would he betray me for him?"

"If he betrays me, I will make him pay the price."

Jiang Qingwu frowned and stared at Yan Chong, "What did you say? Let the Lu family... and the Gu family go secretly?"

"Yes, I thought he was loyal to me, so I took people to the Gu and Lu families overnight."

"But who knows, he was in a hurry to go there to tip off the police and release the people secretly."

Hearing this, Gu Yanbai couldn't help but step forward, "No, you said he let the people from the Gu and Lu families go, but I've seen the execution ground, and all the people from the Gu and Lu families died..."

Yan Chong sneered, then abruptly let go of Jiang Qingwu and went towards Gu Yanbai.

"That's because... the Gu and Lu families wanted to protect you, so they were willing to be captured by that rebellious son..."
