Reborn to marry the regent and seize the throne as queen

Hearing the sound, everyone looked towards the door.

I saw Xiao Liuzi and Jiuhan bringing up the eunuch who delivered the message.

Jiang Qingwu looked at the little eunuch kneeling on the ground, stood up and helped the queen up.

When Concubine Shen saw the young eunuch falling in front of her, her face turned pale and she turned to look at the maid beside her.

"I want to ask you, who ordered you to report to Baifeng Palace?"

Yan Xiuchen leaned forward, his voice was not loud, but his aura was terrifying.

The young eunuch buried his head for a long time before speaking in a low voice, "Slave... No one ordered this slave to do something."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiuhan kicked the young eunuch on the shoulder.

"How dare you! Don't you even look at who is in front of you?"

Yan Xiuchen sighed secretly and leaned back in his chair. "Since you won't tell me, let's take him to the Criminal Division of Beijing for trial."

Upon hearing the words "Beijing Criminal Court", not only the little eunuch kneeling on the ground, but even Concubine Shen turned pale with fright.

If he was really sent to the Capital Criminal Court, not to mention a eunuch like him, even a warrior with iron skin and bones would not be able to bear it.

"Prince Regent, spare my life. It's Concubine Shen..."

"How dare you talk nonsense..." Concubine Shen shouted angrily, and the little eunuch immediately added a sentence.

"It's Aunt Jinyun who is beside Concubine Shen."

As soon as she finished speaking, Jinyun, who was beside Concubine Shen, hurriedly knelt in front of the emperor and Yan Xiuchen.

"I don't have any."

"You are Concubine Shen's person. It was Concubine Shen who instigated my brother to come here. Could it be Concubine Shen..."

Concubine Shen listened to Yan Xiuchen's words and was anxious for a moment. She shouted at Jinyun, "Bitch, is it you who... still doesn't want to come over?"

Jinyun shrank his body, knelt with his head down, hesitated for a moment, and kowtowed firmly.

"It was the maidservant. I made a mistake."

"I accidentally heard Miss Jiang want to pay her respects to the Queen, and then I saw the Second Prince drunk and entangled with a woman in red, so I thought it was Miss Jiang."

"That's why I bribed this little eunuch to deliver the message."

"The Third Prince has been kind to me. Now Jiang Qingwu has abandoned him and is getting engaged to His Royal Highness the Regent. I..."

"I was confused for a moment, so I thought of bringing people here to take revenge on Jiang Qingwu."

It's nonsense and full of loopholes.

How could she, a close associate of the imperial concubine, hear that she went to pay her respects, and how could she have misjudged the palace maid and her wedding gown?

However, neither the Queen nor she could make things clear.

If we get to the bottom of it and question the head maid Lu Tao in detail, I'm afraid she will also give the truth away.

Yan Xiuchen listened to Jinyun's words and secretly realized something.

"You are a grateful person..."

Yan Xiuchen looked at Jinyun in front of him coldly, fiddling with the golden bronze fan in his hand, and said nonchalantly, "Come here, Jinyun and this little eunuch, beat them to death."

"Yan Nan and Lu Tao will be dealt with by the Queen. As for the Imperial Concubine..."

"You are responsible for making reckless assumptions and failing to discipline your parents. Today's events are beyond reproach."

"The Imperial Concubine will be punished to chant sutras in the Buddhist temple for two months. The affairs of the six palaces will be handled by the Empress for the time being."

Yan Xiuchen sat in a wheelchair and dealt with everyone before looking up at the emperor.

"Brother, do you think this is a good solution?"

The emperor opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, the imperial concubine pounced on him.

"Your Majesty, it's all my fault for not managing my subordinates well. It's my fault, but chanting sutras in the Buddhist temple..."

"Since the Imperial Concubine knows she is wrong, then she should listen to my brother."

The emperor didn't wait for the imperial concubine to finish speaking, he just comforted her softly and lowered his voice to her.

"Since you ruined the engagement banquet today, I will only punish you to go to the Buddhist temple, which is already a light punishment."

Everyone had long been accustomed to the emperor listening to Yan Xiuchen in everything, not to mention that many people had also seen the clues in this.

The matter was unclear and yet clearly resolved.

Only after everyone left Yuhe Palace did Jiang Qingwu breathe a sigh of relief.

"Awu..." Mother Su Su ignored Yan Xiuchen and the queen and went straight to Jiang Qingwu.

Seeing Su Su's worried look, Jiang Qingwu quickly smiled and shook his head, "Mother, it's okay. I'm with the Queen."

"Don't try to coax me..." Su Su said, looking around. Seeing that only Yan Xiuchen and Jiang Ruhai were left by her side, she spoke with confidence.

"Your Highness did not succeed in today's matter, and she also suffered such a great loss. She will definitely not give up."

"What should we do next?"

"Okay, stop talking." Jiang Ruhai looked at Yan Xiuchen beside him and interrupted Su Su in time.

Then he looked at Jiang Qingwu with a gloomy face, "Your mother and I will leave the palace and return home first. The matter is over, you go back as soon as possible."

Jiang Qingwu heard the voice and bowed slightly, "Yes, father."

"Yan Nan... Yan Nan, wake up..." Before Jiang Qingwu had the time to talk to Yan Xiuchen, he heard the queen's voice not far away.

Seeing this, Jiang Qingwu hurriedly said, "It's the poison of the Seven Emotions Pill. The imperial physician should have an antidote, but..."

Jiang Qingwu looked at the palace maid Lu Tao, who was disheveled and wrapped in a thin shirt, and felt a little embarrassed to speak for a moment.

"It must be because she was drunk." Yan Xiuchen grabbed Jiang Qingwu's wrist, leaned forward, and spoke for her.

"The Seven Emotions Pill is an aphrodisiac. If you succeed with this palace maid... you won't need an antidote."

Upon hearing this, the Queen immediately ordered the Second Prince to be sent away and walked towards Yan Xiuchen.

"I helped your future princess today. Your Highness must remember this favor from me."

Yan Xiuchen curled his lips into a smile, raised his head slightly and said, "Sister-in-law, I saved the Second Prince for you, and helped you regain the power of the Six Palaces."

"Isn't that enough to repay this favor?"

"That's enough, but you, the princess, said..."

Hearing this, Yan Xiuchen smiled and bowed his head to indicate, "No matter what Qingwu and the Queen's sister-in-law said today, this king will... accept it all."

The queen looked at Yan Xiuchen in astonishment, then sneered and shouted to the people behind her, "Take this slave away."

Seeing the queen leave, Yan Xiuchen held Jiang Qingwu's hand with a feeling of relief.

Seeing this, Jiang Qingwu smiled and moved closer to Yan Xiuchen.

"Don't worry, I'm fine, but... where is Xiao Anzi now?"

Yan Xiuchen didn't understand, but Jiuhan knew, and then he stepped forward quickly.

"Xiao Anzi is dead. Someone has silenced him."

"Before he died, he explained that he was the one who pretended to be the godfather and asked the girl to come and pay respects to the Queen Mother."

His four most trusted bodyguards were actually bribed.

Yan Xiuchen's face was gloomy, and he spoke after a long time, "Let's go back first."

On the carriage back to the palace, Jiang Qingwu sat next to Yan Xiuchen and told him the whole story.

Thinking of the Queen, Jiang Qingwu's face became somewhat gloomy.

"The queen was originally the daughter of a general. She fought on the battlefield and was very brave and heroic. When she was young, she must have been very carefree."

"But Concubine Shen has brought her to this state. Her palace is so cold and deserted that I'm afraid there's not even any charcoal burning."

"I almost lost my son today. My husband is unfaithful and I don't know how many years I have to endure."

Yan Xiuchen looked at Jiang Qingwu's dazed and lonely appearance, and vaguely realized something.

But he didn't say anything, just put his arms around Jiang Qingwu's shoulders and held her in his arms.

"I promise that there won't be someone like Concubine Shen, and you won't be in the same situation as the Queen."

Hearing the voice, Jiang Qingwu's thoughts were pulled back. She looked up at Yan Xiuchen and smiled.

"Are you serious about this?"

"Of course I take it seriously." Yan Xiuchen's eyes, like lingering silk threads, lingered on her face and finally landed on her soft red lips.

His gentle eyes seemed to melt her. He slowly approached and kissed her.

But the next moment, with a "whoosh", the carriage suddenly stopped.

Jiang Qingwu staggered, but was held firmly by Yan Xiuchen.

"What's the matter?" Yan Xiuchen shouted outside in annoyance, and Jiang Qingwu immediately lifted the curtain.

But unexpectedly, there was a woman standing outside the carriage, holding an umbrella, and with a maid serving her personally.

She was wearing a pink dress and a white cape, and she had a stunning appearance and extraordinary temperament.

"Excuse me, but the Regent's carriage..."

Jiang Qingwu looked him over and nodded slightly, "Who are you?"

“Miss Jiang, you are polite…” The woman bowed respectfully and then raised her eyes slightly.

"I am Xu Qingran, a commoner. I have made a promise with Your Highness to spend the rest of my life together in the southern border, and I have come here to make the promise."
