Reborn to marry the regent and seize the throne as queen

Gu Yanbai, who climbed in through the window, was wearing a long black gown.

He twirled the jade flute in his hand and looked around the room casually.

Then he stopped in front of Xu Qingran and said, "Get up."

Hearing the voice, Xu Qingran slowly stood up, but as soon as he stood up, Gu Yanbai slapped him in the face.

With a 'pop' sound, Xu Qingran staggered and almost fell, then quickly knelt down.

"You know how much I love you."

"I've been teaching you for so long and told you so many times not to rush for quick success, but why don't you listen?"

Xu Qingran was so scared that she buried her head and spoke in a very low voice, "I, I just thought that I had the gratitude for saving my life."

"He...he will definitely agree to let me be his concubine."

"If saving my life could earn me the position of concubine, I would have asked your father to write it directly in the letter."

"I knew it was useless, so I asked you to proceed step by step, but you..." Gu Yanbai said as he leaned over and squatted in front of Xu Qingran.

Then he grabbed her chin and said, "Let me tell you, this move of your Xu family took me so long to make, step by step."

"If you dare to ruin my business, I will kill you, understand?"

"Yes... yes, I, I understand. I won't force him anymore..."

"That's good. You must learn to retreat in order to advance." As he spoke, Gu Yanbai's gaze fell on Xu Qingran's face, and then swept down little by little.

Her eyes gradually showed some lust, and she smiled softly, "It's been so long since we last met, have you missed me, young master?"

Hearing this, Xu Qingran seemed to be relieved, raised her eyes slightly and said, "I miss you very much."

Seeing Gu Yanbai coming over, Xu Qingran took off his coat immediately.

The eyes are as charming as silk, and the passion is as intense as dry wood.

……

The next day, His Majesty issued an imperial decree that Princess Yuya’s envoy to the Southern Kingdom should enter the capital.

Hundreds of officials came to welcome them, and common people lined the streets. The huge procession went from the north gate, through Shangyang Street, and straight into the palace gate.

However, Jiang Qingwu, Jiuhan and others who were mixed in the team quietly avoided the team when entering the city gate.

Jiang Qingwu and Wanyue accompanied Jiuhan and the others to the gate of the Beijing Criminal Department.

I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw Chen Ang being brought in.

"Girl, godfather should be entering the palace soon, and the second young master Jiang will also be entering the palace, you..."

"I'm not going. I'm a little tired. I'm going back to the Marquis' Mansion."

Having said that, Jiang Qingwu and Wanyue hurried away.

Firstly, she didn't want to see Yan Xiuchen.

Secondly, she was in a hurry to see Luo Ming.

"This time, the Second Young Master accompanied the princess to the Southern Kingdom and performed a great deed. Now that the Regent is here, he will definitely be rewarded."

"There are rewards, of course, but Princess..."

Jiang Qingwu thought about it and couldn't help but slow down his pace.

In the previous life, after returning to the court, the Queen Mother ordered a martial arts competition to find a husband for the princess.

If there hadn't been that martial arts competition to win a husband, perhaps Yuya wouldn't have become a nun in the end.

Jiang Qingwu's heart sank as he thought about it, "Isn't it possible that today we are going to bring up the martial arts competition to win a bride?"

"What, what did the girl say?"

"Oh, it's okay." Jiang Qingwu was stunned for a moment, but suddenly heaved a sigh of relief.

Shen Zhuoran is already dead. According to the martial arts competition in the previous life, the winner is the second brother, Jiang Qingyu.

He and Yuya are in love with each other, and this martial arts competition to find a husband is just the right opportunity for them to be together.

Wanyue followed Jiang Qingwu and saw that Jiang Qingwu was worried and couldn't help but sigh secretly.

"Miss, I know what you are thinking. This matter is not something you can figure out just by thinking about it."

"Don't be too hard on yourself."

Jiang Qingwu smiled and said, "Do you know what I'm thinking? Tell me?"

"The girl must be wondering what kind of relationship Xu Qingran and His Highness have developed into."

"Also, the girl must be wondering who this Jiang Jiu is."

Jiang Qingwu turned his head to look at Wanyue, the smile on his face froze, and he nodded thoughtfully.

"You're right. There are many things that I can't figure out just by thinking about them."

In Shangyang Palace.

Just as Jiang Qingwu thought, after rewarding Jiang Qingyu and his people, the Queen Mother brought up the topic of Yuya's marriage.

"Your ninth brother has never discussed marriage, but now he has even held an engagement banquet."

"Isn't it time for you to think about your lifelong affairs?"

As soon as the Queen Mother said this, Yan Xiuchen frowned.

But soon I thought of something.

After Shen Zhuoran's death, the winner of the martial arts competition for marriage will be Jiang Qingyu.

It is a good thing that two people are in love and are a perfect match.

Thinking of this, Yan Xiuchen relaxed a little.

"Mother, I have just returned. Can I..."

Before Yuya could finish her words, the Queen Mother chuckled and said, "I have waited a long time for you to come back."

"I finally got back, so of course I have to hurry. I've thought about it."

"You are good at poetry and prose, quiet and elegant. You should find a young man from a prominent family who is both civil and military."

"I want to hold a martial arts competition to find a husband for you. Do you have any objection?"

Yuya was obviously a little surprised, and her eyes subconsciously looked at Jiang Qingyu not far away.

Although he quickly retracted his gaze, Yan Xiuchen still saw it.

"I think this is a very good idea." Yan Xiuchen said, looking at Yuya and smiling.

"Among the children of aristocratic families, there are many who are outstanding in ability and are good at both civil and military affairs."

"This is a good thing." Yan Xiuchen said as his eyes swept towards Jiang Qingyu not far away.

Yuya seemed to understand something, and lowered her head shyly, "I will leave it to the Queen Mother to decide."

"Okay, that's settled. I'll ask someone to prepare it now."

After coming out of Shangyang Palace, Jiang Qingyu chased after Yan Xiuchen for a few steps and caught up with him.

Seeing Jiang Qingyu's unhappy expression, Yan Xiuchen sent everyone around him away, leaving only Xiao Liuzi serving behind him.

"Your Highness." Jiang Qingyu bowed perfunctorily and stood up.

"I have heard that Your Highness has imprisoned my sister and forced her to break off the engagement and marry you."

"I know your highness's reputation, but you can't bully others by taking advantage of your power."

"My Shunqing Marquisate has made great contributions to the court, how could it be forced to this extent by His Highness?"

"Also, I heard that a girl came to your Highness's house and asked to be your concubine."

"It wasn't a big deal in the first place. That bastard Yan Lin had many concubines in the mansion before."

"I heard that His Highness made a promise in front of the Queen Mother and my father and mother that he would only have her in his life."

"Now, my sister hasn't even married yet, but her fiancé is being taken away by someone else. How can this be justified?"

After listening to Jiang Qingyu's words, Xiao Liuzi couldn't help but look around in panic.

However, Yan Xiuchen knew that Jiang Qingyu and Yan Lin had always had a close relationship, and he was afraid that there was no distinction between the monarch and his subjects.

However, this straightforward and uninhibited character is somewhat similar to Jiang Qingwu.

"From my perspective, you look down on both Yan Lin and me?"

Jiang Qingyu heard the voice and sneered contemptuously, "Yan Lin is a worthless person, and His Highness is not a good man either."

When Yan Xiuchen heard Jiang Qingyu's words, he was stunned at first, then he sneered and leaned forward.

"Only you two brothers and sisters dare to be so presumptuous in front of this king."

As he spoke, Yan Xiuchen looked like he was concentrating on thinking, "Well... right now, my sister is also going to discuss marriage."

"I can understand your feelings. If Yuya finds a... reckless and reckless Luffy..."

"This king...will definitely not agree to her getting married."

When Jiang Qingyu heard the voice, his heart skipped a beat, his face turned pale, and his body froze.
