Reborn to marry the regent and seize the throne as queen

Chapter 58: Imprisoned, Testing the Genuineness of Jiangjiu

Back in time...

Two hours ago.

In Wutong Garden, Jiang Qingwu sat at the desk in the afterglow of the setting sun and wrote a letter to Yan Xiuchen.

He stuffed it carefully into an envelope and then handed it to the close guard in the yard.

"Jiang Feng, you must deliver this letter to the West Palace Gate at 10:00 p.m. and hand it over to the Regent or his confidant in person. Do you understand?"

"Yes, girl, I understand."

When Wan Yue saw Jiang Feng leaving, she sighed secretly and walked over with a puzzled look on her face.

"Miss, I don't understand. Since you wanted to tell His Highness to go see the Third Prince, why did you lie and let His Highness go to the palace first?"

Jiang Qingwu picked up the teacup and looked up at Wanyue.

"If I had said it directly, he would have definitely come to stop me."

"Then we can tell you at 11 pm? Your Highness will definitely come as well."

"But by then, he won't be able to stop me. Besides, I have something to prove."

"what's up?"

Jiang Qingwu's eyes were filled with deep uneasiness, and he said in a trance, "Jiang Jiu and Yan Xiuchen must be related."

"Yan Xiuchen refused to say anything, Jiang Jiu was lying, I have to find out what the problem is."

Jiang Qingwu seemed to be thinking about something, while Wanyue was confused. "Can this prove these things?"

"Every time I was in danger in the past, it was Yan Xiuchen who knew about it, but it was Jiang Jiu who saved me."

"I want to see who is coming to save me today."

Wanyue sighed secretly and reached out to take the empty teacup from Jiang Qingwu's hand.

"My girl, are you scheming against His Highness?"

Jiang Qingwu was stunned for a moment, then raised his eyes and said, "Since he is hiding something from me and refuses to tell me, I naturally have to find out."

Jiang Qingwu thought of how he was foolishly beside Yan Lin in his previous life, knowing nothing, and he wished he could skin himself alive.

"But... girl, even if you figure this out, it will be risky enough today. Is it worth going?"

Jiang Qingwu came back to his senses and couldn't help but smile, "Killing three birds with one stone... It's worth the risk."

Wan Yue curled her lips and muttered in a low voice, "I have only seen one eagle, so I may not be able to help you find the answer to the mystery."

Jiang Qingwu smiled when he heard the voice, and stood up with a confident look on his face.

"The second eagle is naturally the antidote."

"As for the third eagle...it depends on Luo Ming."

…………

At two quarters past the hour of Xu, in Fenghe Palace.

As soon as Yan Xiuchen took his seat, Jiuhan received a letter delivered to the palace gate.

She leaned over to Yan Xiuchen's ear and whispered, "Outside the West Palace, Miss Jiang sent someone to deliver a letter."

Yan Xiuchen's face darkened slightly, as if he had noticed something.

[Tonight at 2:00 pm, I agreed to meet Yan Lin on the second floor of Nandu Building.]

[He used the antidote to lure me there, his purpose was not pure, I am afraid there might be danger.]

[If I haven't entered the palace in half an hour, come and look for me.]

Yan Xiuchen looked at Jiang Qingwu's handwriting and frowned, "Idiot!"

With a low shout, Yan Xiuchen gestured to Jiuhan, "Leave the palace."

"Yes..." Jiuhan lowered his voice into Yan Xiuchen's ear as he led him away.

"Godfather, do you want to go back home... and change into Jiang Jiu's clothes?"

"It's already 2:45 pm, it's too late, just go."

"Yes."

At that time, in Nandu Building.

Jiang Qingwu was taking effect of the drug, and looking at Yan Lin approaching step by step, Jiang Qingwu retreated again and again.

She had calculated everything and even anticipated that she would have a falling out with Yan Lin.

Then he had a big fight, was in danger, and took risks, but he never expected that he would fall for such a despicable thing.

"If you were half as charming as Shen Wanrong, I wouldn't have endured it until now."

"I, Yan Lin, will never give the woman in my hand to that cripple so easily."

"If you have me in your heart, we will be a real couple today."

"If you betray me, I will be disgusted by you two, a pair of bastards."

Yan Lin thought he was sure to win, so he was calm and composed, with an arrogant and complacent smile on his face.

That smile made Jiang Qingwu feel cold in his heart.

It was as if I saw Yan Lin’s face under the umbrella on the night when the Jiang family was massacred.

The image of corpses and blood all over the ground shocked her brain, allowing her to regain some consciousness, and she reached out and grasped the blade.

The blood dripped down, and the intense pain made her suddenly sober up.

Looking at Yan Lin who was stunned for a moment, Jiang Qingwu swung his knife and left.

Yan Lin panicked and hurriedly dodged Jiang Qingwu's knife, but when he was not careful, Jiang Qingwu scratched his arm.

"Ah..." When Yan Lin came to his senses, Jiang Qingwu had already taken the opportunity to escape through the back window.

"You...you actually want to kill me." Yan Lin covered his arm in disbelief and shouted towards the door.

"Go after her and bring her back to her."

Jiang Qingwu jumped down from the second-floor window and quickly hid in a dark alley.

I thought I could hide temporarily, but in the blink of an eye, the way was blocked by men in black from front and back.

Seeing this, Jiang Qingwu perked up and tightened the knife in his hand.

"Miss Jiang, don't run away. Our Highness asks you to go back."

"Well, that depends on whether you can invite me or not." Having said that, Jiang Qingwu stood still.

The wound on my hand was painful, and my limbs were weak and I had no strength.

Soon, Jiang Qingwu's knife was knocked to the ground.

Just as the blade was about to strike, there was a sudden shout and a dagger flew from the air.

"Jiang Qingwu, take the knife."

Jiang Qingwu didn't think much about it. He caught the dagger in the air, blocked the blade of the man in black, turned around and cut the man's throat.

Looking at the knife in her hand, Jiang Qingwu raised her eyes to look at the men in black who were fighting beside her.

The man wearing a black cloak, a silver mask, and holding two swords is Jiang Jiu.

What she was waiting for was Jiangjiu? !

Watching the men in black dying or fleeing, Jiang Qingwu secretly breathed a sigh of relief and staggered to the wall.

"What's wrong with you? Are you hurt?"

Jiang Qingwu listened to the sound getting closer and closer, and she felt like something that had been suppressed in her heart was about to burst out.

The moment Jiang Jiu approached her, Jiang Qingwu suddenly woke up.

He dodged him suddenly, raised his knife and put some distance between him and him.

"Don't come over, I..." Jiang Qingwu wanted to tell Jiang Jiu about his situation.

But suddenly, in just a moment.

She looked at the knife in her hand and realized something instantly.

This knife...

Jiang Qingwu's brows tightened, her mind was in a mess, and she remembered that she had also taken Jiang Jiu's knife in the ruined temple.

Although the knife looks very similar, the weight is different, and the feel is also different.

The sword is different, and the cape is different too!

"do not come……"

Jiang Qingwu looked at Jiang Jiu who was approaching again and shouted angrily, his voice a little more fierce than before.

Gu Yanbai was suddenly startled and stopped.

He gave Yan Lin advice, intending to stage a mantis stalking the cicada while the oriole waits behind, and kidnap Jiang Qingwu.

But now Jiang Qingwu treated him like a scourge, which made him a little puzzled.

"You...what's wrong with you? I'm here to save you."

Jiang Qingwu felt as if something was gnawing at his heart. He had no strength left in his body, but his mind was still clear.

Looking at the 'Jiangjiu' in front of him, Jiang Qingwu's mind buzzed and he suddenly thought of something.

"Do you still remember... the first time we met, at Duke Shen's Mansion... what you said when I saved you?"

"You said...you said you could agree to one of my requests, any time..."

"I want you to keep your promise now."
