Reborn to marry the regent and seize the throne as queen
Chapter 81: Can the conspiracy growing in secret succeed?
Jiang Qingwu looked at Xu Qingran who was holding his ankle, as if he understood everything.
Gu Yanbai's plan failed, so he had to set his target on Xu Qingran who had just entered the city.
Gu Yanbai thought Xu Qingran was trying to curry favor with the powerful, so he used threats and inducements to force her into entering the palace.
And it is very likely that Baihua Tower is Gu Yanbai’s base.
While making an appointment with Xu Qingran, he was hiding Shen Wanrong for Yan Lin and the Shen family.
Gu Yanbai, Xu Qingran, Shen Wanrong, Yan Lin, and the Shen family, they are all in the same group.
But now, what should we do with Xu Qingran?
"Miss Jiang, please have mercy on me. Please give me a status because I have been taking care of His Highness day and night."
Just as Jiang Qingwu was sorting out his thoughts and didn't know what to do, Xu Qingran's pleading voice became more and more shrill.
It was as if she was going to skin her alive with a knife.
"Oh, by the way, I can... I can alleviate the poison of the Heart-Eating Gu, Your Highness. I can..."
Jiang Qingwu's head buzzed, and he looked at Xu Qingran with a frown, "What did you say?"
"I said, I can..." Before Xu Qingran could finish her words, the door was pushed open with a bang.
Yan Xiuchen, Jiuhan, and their accompanying guards rushed in.
Xu Qingran looked at Yan Xiuchen, Jiuhan and the others, dumbfounded, and quickly knelt on the ground.
"Your Highness, please spare my life. I have no choice but to do this. The lives of the entire Xu family are in the hands of others."
"Although I am greedy for wealth and honor, I have never thought of embarrassing or threatening Your Highness."
“It’s really a last resort.”
Indeed, people go to high places and water flows to low places, not to mention that she was forced to do so.
It seems that she did nothing wrong.
Jiang Qingwu thought secretly, and the stern look on his face gradually disappeared.
"You just said that you can relieve the poison in His Highness' body, what do you mean..."
Hearing Jiang Qingwu's words, Yan Xiuchen said before Xu Qingran could speak, "It's useless. It only relieves the pain, not an antidote..."
Jiang Qingwu opened his mouth, but quickly remembered something.
Yes, if it was the antidote, Yan Xiuchen would not have been poisoned after returning to Beijing.
Jiang Qingwu calmed himself down, then turned around and picked up the knife on the table.
"You decide how to deal with it, and I'll accept it."
Yan Xiuchen didn't say anything until he was sure that Jiang Qingwu had left the courtyard of Qingfeng Pavilion, then he spoke to Xu Qingran.
"Is what you said just now true?"
"Your Highness, every word is true."
Yan Xiuchen glanced at Xu Qingran coldly, opened the golden bronze fan with a rustling sound, and leaned lightly against the back of the chair.
"Okay, my people have already gone to Wencheng to investigate. If what you said is necessary, don't worry about it..."
"I have plenty of assassins to make the Xu family disappear completely."
"Come here, surround Qingfeng Pavilion and don't allow anyone to enter or leave."
When Yan Xiuchen and the others left Qingfeng Pavilion, it was almost past the hour of Chou.
The gate of Qingfeng Pavilion was locked tightly, and the royal guards quickly surrounded Qingfeng Pavilion.
"Godfather, is what Xu Qingran said true?"
"Believe it for now, and we'll find out once we check it out."
"Yes, that Baihua Tower..."
"Go check secretly to see if Shen Wanrong has left and whether it is where Gu Yanbai is."
"My son knows."
……
The next morning, the sky was just getting light.
In Duke Shen's mansion, Gu Yanbai had been sitting in the hall waiting for a long time.
When Shen Chengshan hurried out, he was busy tidying up his clothes and bowing to Gu Yanbai.
"Mr. Gu..."
Seeing this, Gu Yanbai slowly stood up and returned the greeting to Shen Chengshan, "Greetings, Duke."
“My identity was exposed, but I finally gained their trust.”
"It's just that Baihua Tower is no longer safe. Miss Shen is no longer suitable to stay with me."
Shen Chengshan frowned slightly when he heard the voice, "How is my daughter's appearance?"
"It will take another seven days, so you need to find another place for her."
"There is one more important thing."
As he spoke, Gu Yanbai stood up and walked away, saying, "Chen Ang from Shu is already in the Capital Criminal Division."
"He didn't take Chen Ang directly to the emperor. He probably wanted to delay it until Yan Yuya's marriage proposal was over."
"Time is running out. We must hurry to save the Third Prince."
Shen Chengshan nodded slightly and said, "Don't worry, sir, Chen Ang will die, Yan Yuya will be obtained, and the third prince will definitely save her."
Shen Chengshan was very respectful to Gu Yanbai, and the two of them planned a perfect plan.
However, Yan Xiuchen and Jiang Qingwu were completely unaware of this.
……
Jiang Qingwu stayed awake all night because of Xu Qingran's matter.
She didn't know how Yan Xiuchen would deal with Xu Qingran.
I felt inexplicably upset and didn't fall asleep until dawn. I slept until almost noon.
Until a shrill voice came from outside the door.
"Girl...Girl." Wanyue knocked on the door like thunder.
Jiang Qingwu trembled and suddenly sat up, "Ah...what are you doing, are you going to confiscate my house?"
"If you're not confiscating my property, shut up."
Having said that, Jiang Qingwu lay down again with a plop.
But I was confused and didn't know how long it had been when I suddenly heard Yuya's voice in my ears.
"Sure enough, you are still sleeping. What time did you fall asleep yesterday..."
Yuya walked closer to her with a teasing smile.
Jiang Qingwu was startled and suddenly woke up, "Yuya..."
Jiang Qingwu looked at Yuya who was sitting on the couch not far from the bed, and looked at Wanyue in astonishment.
"I am calling you..."
"Okay, go make some tea." Yuya ordered, looking at Jiang Qingwu lying on the bed.
"Why don't you change your clothes before going to bed..."
Jiang Qingwu gradually woke up, got out of bed and walked towards Yuya.
Just as she was about to salute, Yuya reached out to stop her.
"From now on, we are all family, there is no need to perform formalities."
"When you get through the door, I will greet you."
As she spoke, Yuya gestured to Jiang Qingwu and sat on the other side of the couch.
"I came to see you today because I have something I want to talk to you about..."
"Brother Wang said that he could tell you about this."
Jiang Qingwu looked at Yuya with a confused look on his face, and nodded blankly, "You say."
"The South is already poor, and coupled with the drought, many people have died."
"At the southern border, refugees from the southern country flee to our border town of Great Yan every day."
"Although Brother Wang said that he would pay money, it would require a lot of money..."
Jiang Qingwu sounded a little confused and even suspected that he had not woken up yet.
He shook his head slightly and moved closer to Yuya, "You...you mean, you want me to pay?"
"No, no, no, what I mean is that if Brother Wang pays too little, it won't solve the problem at all."
"If you give too much, the regent will secretly use the money to help the people of the southern country. I'm afraid someone in the court will use this to frame you, my brother."
Jiang Qingwu nodded slightly and understood something instantly.
"Yes, if Your Highness paid this money privately, there is no guarantee that others would not say that he was secretly giving and receiving money from another country with ill intentions."
"But I really want to help those people. They can't survive anymore, so they came to Dayan..."
Jiang Qingwu looked at Yuya's nervous and worried expression and smiled slightly, "Yan Xiuchen told you to come to me and tell me."
"Yes, brother Wang just said, I can tell you, I don't know what it means."
Jiang Qingwu smiled and hooked his finger at Yuya, "Answer me a question and I will tell you what to do."
"It doesn't cost much money, but it can help them."
Yuya leaned forward, raised the corner of her lips and nodded, "Okay, ask."
"Do you like my second brother?"
