Reborn to marry the regent and seize the throne as queen

Perhaps they heard Gu Yanbai's voice, Jiang Qingwu and Yan Xiujing came back to their senses.

Yan Xiujin was the first to shut up, and Jiang Qingwu also sighed deeply, turned around and calmed down.

"Stop arguing? What's there to argue about?" Yan Xiuchen chuckled and looked at Yan Xiujin.

“There is no difference between women and men.”

“Instead of worrying about the difference between men and women, it is better to worry about their abilities.”

As he spoke, Yan Xiuchen gestured to Jiang Qingwu, "I will draft an imperial decree to appoint her as a lieutenant in the army, and she will be under the control of your eldest brother."

"But whether she can stay in the military camp and become a real female general depends on herself."

"Okay, I'll tell her exactly what I said." Jiang Qingwu agreed, picked up the wine pot and poured wine for Yan Xiuchen, "There is one more thing I want to tell you."

"I know about Zhuang Qing, right? I heard from Jiuhan that you wanted to give her a status so that she could have food and a fiefdom and have someone to rely on."

"What do you want me to do?"

Jiang Qingwu smiled and sighed, "I have already thought about this, but I am not talking about this matter. I am talking about another matter."

"Another thing? What is it?" Gu Yanbai came over and asked.

Jiang Qingwu looked at Gu Yanbai, his face gradually showing some solemnity and seriousness, and looked at Yan Xiuchen and said, "I hope... you can agree to my father's request and let him go to the East Territory to help Sang Kingdom wipe out Fuye."

Yan Xiuchen looked at Jiang Qingwu in surprise, "Did you hear everything?"

"Your father is nearly fifty years old, and there are many soldiers in the army. There is no need to let him go..."

"Yan Xiuchen, if he wants to go, just let him go." Jiang Qingwu said firmly, and then said absentmindedly, "Not everyone can do what they want."

"If he wants to do this, you should help him."

Hearing this, Gu Yanbai suddenly understood why Jiang Qingwu was in Shangyang Palace just now and why he was looking at Jiang Ruhai in a daze.

"Back then, even Yan Xiuchen had no chance to resist, let alone your father..."

"The man was captured by Yan Xiuchen and his men. He was just an executioner."

Gu Yanbai murmured in a low voice, raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Qingwu, "Tell your father not to worry about what happened in the past."

"It's not necessary for him to go to the East Territory."

The atmosphere suddenly became depressing, and everyone fell silent. Even Jiang Qingwu didn't know how to start talking for a moment.

Until Jiuhan's voice broke the silence.

"Godfather, spy on the news..."

Hearing the voice, Yan Xiuchen looked at the three people at the table, then stood up and walked towards Jiuhan.

Seeing the two of them heading towards the side hall, Gu Yanbai moved one position towards Jiang Qingwu.

"I heard that the one from Fenghe Palace went to Puling Temple?"

Jiang Qingwu was stunned for a moment, remembering what the Queen Mother said in the Buddhist temple that day.

She didn’t tell Gu Yanbai about what the Queen Mother did to Gu Xijia.

I don’t know whether I should say it or not. If I say it, Gu Yanbai will definitely not keep the empress dowager.

Jiang Qingwu nodded in a daze, "Yes, she asked to go to Puling Temple."

"She has done so many evil things. Now that Yan Xiuchen's biological mother has come to the capital, we can't let her be inferior to her."

"That makes sense, but..." Gu Yanbai said, hesitating and lowering his voice.

"One queen mother left, and another one came."

"This queen mother is Yan Xiuchen's biological mother. If she is kind to you, it's fine. If not, Ah Chen can't help you."

"Also, you have some idea in your mind..." Gu Yanbai poured a glass of wine while speaking, and sighed thoughtfully, "Since ancient times, no emperor has only one queen in his harem."

"Gu Yanbai, are you trying to sow discord?" Yan Xiujin at the side blurted out, interrupting their conversation.

Gu Yanbai chuckled and looked at Yan Xiujin in the distance, "Which eye of yours could tell that I was trying to sow discord between them?"

"I'm just giving her a heads up so she can be prepared and not be sad and miserable when the time comes."

Yan Xiuchen sneered disapprovingly and sighed, "That sounds nice, but do you think others don't know what you're thinking?"

Gu Yanbai's eyes darkened, and he looked at Yan Xiujin coldly, with a questioning tone, "Thoughts? Tell me, what are my thoughts?"

"You..." Yan Xiu Jin opened his mouth, but noticed Jiang Qing Wu who looked a little stunned, and was instantly choked.

"I am telling the truth. If Empress Dowager Zhong returns to the capital and takes over the harem, will she allow her to occupy the harem all by herself?"

"Will you tolerate her breaking the rules and participating in government affairs? Will you allow Ah Chen not to participate in the imperial selection, not to be crowned as a concubine, and not to take a concubine?"

Yan Xiujin opened his mouth and wanted to refute Gu Yanbai, but found himself speechless.

After a moment of silence, Yan Xiujin also agreed, "You are right, everything you said will happen. It's not just possible, it will definitely happen."

"Not to mention my brother, even the kings, nobles, and aristocratic families rarely have concubines."

"You're not right." Gu Yanbai blurted out.

Yan Xiujin stared at Gu Yanbai in a daze, and suddenly became annoyed, "You..."

"He is the emperor, the most powerful person in the world. He is the one who has the most power to refuse anything he doesn't want done."

Yan Xiujin smiled bitterly and shook his head, "That's wrong. He is an emperor and has the responsibilities of an emperor. Just passing on the legacy to his offspring is something he must do, so..."

"So, who stipulated that the emperor must have a certain number of children, and that they must be born to different women?"

"Besides, is it so important to have a certain number of children or to pass on the legacy?"

“Everything in the world is nothing. No matter how sad or happy yesterday was, it is just a memory today.”

"A hundred years from now, there will be no you, no him either. Whether it's the emperor or the ministers, they will just be a pile of dry bones."

"What do offspring, inheritance, and worldly affairs have to do with a pile of dry bones?"

Yan Xiujin looked at Gu Yanbai in disbelief. He had never heard such remarks from him before and for a moment he didn't know what to say.

Just when he was feeling a little helpless, Jiang Qingwu suddenly stood up silently.

"Well, I'm done eating. I'm going back to Fengxiang Palace first. You guys tell Yan Xiuchen."

Having said that, Jiang Qingwu turned and left. Gu Yanbai suddenly came to his senses, looked at Jiang Qingwu walking away, and hurriedly stood up and chased after him.

Not long after the two people left, Yan Xiuchen came back and saw that only Yan Xiujin was left at the table. He sat down in confusion.

"where are they?"

"Just after she left, the Empress said she wanted to go back to Fengxiang Palace, and Gu Yanbai chased after her."

Yan Xiujin said this and sat closer to Yan Xiuchen, hesitating to say something.

"Royal brother, why don't you let Gu Yanbai go?"

"Send someone to escort him back to Sang Country. This will ensure that he will not harm himself to make the antidote, and also allow him to return to Sang Country to deal with the war."

"Besides, if he leaves, it will also stop him from thinking about the Emperor's sister-in-law..."

Yan Xiuchen's face turned cold when he heard this, "Some thoughts can't be stopped by leaving, nor can they have results by staying."

With that, Yan Xiuchen stood up and left, leaving behind a sentence as he walked, "The secret agents in the capital sent news that people from the Fuye tribe were found in the ghost market."

"Let's put the matter of going to Chongling tomorrow on hold for now..."
