Reborn to marry the regent and seize the throne as queen

Jiang Qingyu was surprised to hear Yan Lin's words.

He believed in Jiang Qingwu's words, so he didn't expect Yan Lin to make such an excuse.

"You want to put the blame on Yan Xiuchen for everything?"

"Yan Lin, I don't like the Regent, but I'm not stupid enough to listen to your nonsense."

Yan Lin sneered, his face full of helplessness.

"I know that between Jiang Qingwu and me, you will definitely believe your sister."

"But she was deceived. She was deceived by Yan Xiuchen."

Hearing the voice, Jiang Qingyu rushed over and grabbed Yan Lin's collar.

"She was deceived. She was deceived by you."

"My eldest brother, all the guests in the room saw your scandal with Shen Wanrong, and you are still trying to make excuses?"

Yan Lin sighed secretly, with a guilty look on his face.

"That incident is true, and it's my fault, but I'm trying to survive the Imperial Concubine, so I can't disobey the Imperial Concubine and the Shen family."

"I kept it a secret from Qingwu because I was afraid she would be upset."

"But it was Yan Xiuchen, it was Uncle Wang who deliberately provoked the relationship between us."

As he spoke, Yan Lin moved closer to Jiang Qingyu, "Uncle Wang wants to fight for the throne, and he needs the support of Shunqing Marquis' Mansion."

"That's why he used the matter between me and Shen Wanrong to sow discord between me and Qingwu. He wanted to marry Jiang Qingwu for the Marquis's Mansion."

"He secretly investigated, deliberately instigated, and even bewitched Qingwu to marry him."

"Don't you think about it? If he hadn't been related to your Shunqing Marquis Mansion by marriage, what future would he have with his serious injuries and disability?"

"If I become the crown prince someday, he will no longer be able to hold power."

Jiang Qingyu listened to Yan Lin's words, feeling a little shaken, and slowly loosened his collar.

"Humph, do you think I will believe you? You are planning to bully my sister, but is it true?"

"That's even more of a misunderstanding!" Yan Lin blurted out, as if he had already thought of the wording.

"I was also invited to that place. I thought it was Qingwu who invited me, but she thought it was me who invited her."

"I was caught off guard and fell into the trap, which is why I had improper thoughts about Qingwu."

“But I’m also a victim.”

As he spoke, Yan Lin sighed heavily, "Qingwu originally still had some feelings for me, but because of this incident, she completely hated me."

"Yan Xiuchen even took advantage of this incident to get me here."

"Don't you ever think about why he sent me to the Imperial Mausoleum at this very moment when you were about to return to the capital?"

"He was afraid that you would come to see me. He was afraid that I would tell the truth."

"After all, it's all for the throne."

"He is the king's uncle. According to Dayan's rules, if the father dies, only the prince can inherit."

"He is only qualified if he has no royal heir."

"There is nothing he would not do to silence the world's gossip and to legitimately become emperor."

Seeing that Jiang Qingyu was moved, Yan Lin's eyes turned and he walked towards him, holding him excitedly.

"It doesn't matter if you don't believe me. I just hope you can wake up a little and stop Qingwu from being deceived."

"I've already let her down, and I don't want her to continue being deceived by Yan Xiuchen."

Yan Lin said it so sincerely that tears almost fell from his eyes.

The man who had been able to coax Jiang Qingwu and Jiang Qingyu into being loyal to him for their entire lives, could now speak like this without any hesitation.

Jiang Qingyu listened with some doubt and did not express his opinion.

But just after coming out of Yan Lin's villa, a group of men in black suddenly jumped out and blocked their way.

"The Imperial Mausoleum is a very important place. Who is so presumptuous?"

Jiang Qingyu looked at the other party coming at him aggressively and drew his sword directly.

The man attacked Jiang Qingyu without saying a word.

Seven or eight people surrounded Jiang Qingyu, wanting to kill him with their swords.

Jiang Qingyu knew about the grudge between him and the Shen family, but he was very confused.

We are still in the imperial mausoleum. Does the Shen family have the guts to take his life here?

After a fight, Jiang Qingyu was unable to escape.

Unable to resist, he was forced into a corner and stabbed in the back.

Seeing everyone approaching and Jiang Qingyu's life hanging by a thread, Yan Lin suddenly rushed out.

Holding a crossbow, he shot an arrow and blocked it for Jiang Qingyu.

"Someone come, assassin..." Yan Lin shouted loudly, but no one came.

In the end, it was Yan Lin's confidants who rushed forward to help and forced the men in black to retreat.

"Qingyu...you, go call the imperial physician, and immediately report to the Shunqing Marquis's residence that the second young master was injured in the imperial mausoleum."

Yan Lin helped Jiang Qingyu up while giving instructions to his men.

Jiang Qingyu had all kinds of doubts in his mind, but he was injured and couldn't care about anything else.

When he was about to return to the villa with Yan Lin, Yan Lin's men found a token from the killed man in black.

"Your Highness."

Jiang Qingyu heard the voice and looked over, his heart tightening at the sight of the Regent's Palace token still stained with blood.

"Someone from the Regent's Palace?"

Yan Lin didn't respond to Jiang Qingyu's words, but deliberately changed the subject, "Let's go in first and take a look at your injuries."

When Yan Lin's men ran to Shunqing Marquis's mansion to report the news, Jiang Qingwu was holding a knife and preparing to go out to look for someone.

"Miss Jiang, the second young master Jiang was injured in the imperial mausoleum. My prince specially asked me to come and report the news."

This one sentence made Jiang Qingwu completely stunned.

"What did you say? My second brother was injured in the imperial mausoleum, and the third prince asked you to report the news?"

"Yes, girl."

Echoing, the other party hurried away.

Wan Yue, who was standing aside, looked at the person walking away and moved closer to Jiang Qingwu.

"Girl, this man looks familiar. He seems to be the Third Prince's man."

"But could it be a trap?"

"Yes, we have to go and take a look... I'll go first, you go find Luo Ming, bring our people, and then we'll pick him up."

"Yes, girl."

In the imperial mausoleum courtyard.

While the imperial physician was bandaging his wound, Jiang Qingyu was holding the token of the Regent's Palace in his hand and looking at it carefully.

"Yan Xiuchen? Why would he send someone to kill me? It doesn't make sense at all."

Yan Lin came in from outside, sat down on the couch beside him, and sighed softly.

"He was afraid that you would believe me and disrupt his marriage with Qingwu."

"The Jiang family doesn't have you, but they still have your parents and your eldest brother. They will continue to support him."

"If you want to blame someone, blame it on you. We have known each other since childhood. It is understandable that he is worried and wary of you."

Jiang Qingyu looked up at Yan Lin, then carefully put on his clothes, "Is there no imperial guards in this imperial mausoleum?"

“Why is no one coming out?”

Yan Lin smiled bitterly and leaned forward, "I tell you, if he wasn't afraid of being charged with the crime of killing the heir to the throne and worried that he would lose his position as the emperor in the future, he would have killed me long ago."

"The Imperial Guards? Humph, they are all his people. They will only show up if he wants them to."

Yan Lin looked calm and composed, but Jiang Qingyu still had doubts in his eyes.

"What you said makes sense, but everything you accused Yan Xiuchen of also applies to you."

"Yan Xiuchen needs the Jiang family, don't you need it too?"

Yan Lin's face darkened. When he raised his eyes to look at Jiang Qingyu, Jiang Qingyu was just standing up.

While looking around, he said thoughtfully, "My sister is simple, but she is not the kind of person who treats marriage as a joke."

"She will not settle her marriage just because of a few provocations."

"Also, she can tolerate your house full of concubines, but she can't tolerate Shen Wanrong."

"It can be seen that the reason she gave up on you was not just because of the scandal between you and Shen Wanrong."

Jiang Qingyu was talking to himself but didn't notice Yan Lin behind him, whose eyes were filled with murderous intent.

His eyes also swept several times to the sword that Jiang Qingyu placed on the table.

"Second brother..." Jiang Qingwu's shout suddenly broke the silence.

The fierceness on Yan Lin's face disappeared instantly.
