Reborn to marry the regent and seize the throne as queen

Chapter 87 Sneaking into Yan Xiuchen's Room

It turned out to be with Yan Lin.

When Jiang Qingwu heard about adopting a daughter, he guessed something.

She should have thought that the Shen family and Concubine Shen had not given up on Yan Lin and would definitely give him a chance to make a comeback.

But she didn't understand, if Shen Wanrong hadn't died, why would the Shen family be willing to let a daughter from a side branch marry Yan Lin and inherit the wealth.

"Empress, the previous marriage was granted by the Queen Mother's decree."

"Now that you have taken control of the Phoenix Seal and are in charge of the six palaces, and Yan Lin is also your son, I would trouble you to draft an edict to grant them marriage."

The news about Concubine Shen made Jiang Qingwu's face look as ugly as the Queen's.

If she cannot bring down the Shen family, her current power will only be short-lived.

When the queen was looking gloomy and didn't know how to start, Jiang Qingwu blurted out, "The regent may not know about this yet."

"It doesn't matter if he knows or not. His Majesty has already agreed. Does the Regent still have to make the decision for His Majesty?"

"Of course I cannot be your Majesty's master, but as the regent, I have the power to be involved in politics."

"This is a family matter."

"There are no family affairs in the royal family. Family affairs are state affairs. Imperial Concubine... don't you know?"

Jiang Qingwu spoke with certainty, and then issued an order to expel the guest on behalf of the queen.

"My Lady Concubine, why don't you go back first and ask the Queen to ask His Majesty in person."

"Wouldn't it be more appropriate and more solemn if the Emperor and Empress agreed?"

When the Queen heard Jiang Qingwu's words, she immediately followed his voice and said, "Yes, I am now in charge of the affairs of the six palaces."

"Your Majesty should have discussed this matter with me, but I have to ask for clarification now."

Hearing this, Concubine Shen couldn't help but chuckle, "Okay, since the Queen has said so, I won't be in a hurry."

As she spoke, Concubine Shen stood up and bowed, "Then I will take my leave first."

Seeing the people leaving, Jiang Qingwu waved to Wanyue who was not far away, "Leave the palace immediately, go to the palace, and tell His Highness about this."

"Yes, girl."

"I know that this foxy girl can get whatever your Majesty wants just by whispering in his ear."

The queen sighed helplessly, and then suddenly remembered something, "Why did you come to the palace today? You didn't come just to pay your respects to me, did you?"

Upon hearing the voice, Jiang Qingwu stood up and walked closer to the queen.

"I came to the palace today to ask about the gift the Queen gave me earlier."

Upon hearing Jiang Qingwu's words, the queen immediately sent away the two maids beside her.

In the huge house, they were the only two left.

"you saw it?"

"Yes, I went to investigate, but I didn't find anyone in that place."

The Queen frowned in disbelief and shook her head in confusion, "Impossible, Concubine Shen said it herself, so it can't be wrong."

"Did Concubine Shen say this herself?"

The queen nodded, stood up and paced, "She was imprisoned in the Buddhist temple that day, and I happened to pass by."

"I wanted to go in and ridicule her, but I accidentally overheard her conversation with her confidant."

"She said that fortunately Shen Wanrong is still alive. As long as she can recover well in Baihua Tower, she will have a chance to start over again one day."

Jiang Qingwu listened and began to feel confused.

The Queen knew nothing about the Puling Temple, so she wouldn't make it up.

But Luo Ming had searched the entire Baihua Tower, but couldn't find Shen Wanrong.

"Could she have hidden herself or left?" the queen asked doubtfully.

Jiang Qingwu came back to his senses and shook his head, "Maybe, I will send someone to look for it again, and the Queen doesn't have to worry about this matter."

The queen looked at Jiang Qingwu, seemed to be vaguely aware of something, and walked towards him.

"I already know about the palace's affairs."

"Ah?" Jiang Qingwu looked stunned.

The queen smiled strangely and whispered, "The Queen Mother told me so."

"I never thought that a woman as carefree as you could tolerate Yan Lin having so many concubines and maids."

"Now you are just a nameless female guest, and you look like this."

"What a look, Queen. I'm not sad in front of you, am I?"

The queen sighed softly, with an expression as if she had seen through something, and sat back on her phoenix chair.

"You certainly haven't shown any sadness in front of me, but your face is no longer as carefree and natural as before."

"Look at that little face. You didn't sleep well last night."

Upon hearing the voice, Jiang Qingwu hurriedly touched his face, sighed helplessly, and saluted to the queen.

"Queen, that's fine. I'll leave the palace first."

"You are leaving the palace? Didn't you ask your maid to inform the Regent just now?"

"I'm afraid he will come to the palace soon."

"His entry into the palace has nothing to do with my leaving the palace." Jiang Qingwu said with a slight smile. After bowing to the queen, he turned and left.

The queen looked at Jiang Qingwu walking away and couldn't help but smile secretly, "You are still stubborn. How angry are you?"

When Jiang Qingwu was leaving the palace, she was sitting in a carriage and caught a glimpse of the palace's carriage.

The carriage was moving very fast, so it must have not seen her.

Now that you have entered the palace, there is no need to go to the palace.

Jiang Qingwu was thinking about something when the carriage suddenly stopped.

Wanyue appeared out of nowhere, stopped the carriage and got on directly.

"Miss, I thought you were still in the palace. Fortunately, I saw the carriage from the palace."

As Wan Yue spoke, she called out to the driver, "Go to the Regent's Palace."

"How dare you! Did I say I went there?" Jiang Qingwu shouted in surprise.

Wan Yue frowned and looked at Jiang Qingwu in confusion, "Didn't the girl say that she would go there once she got out of the palace?"

"I..." Jiang Qingwu blurted out, and then she remembered something. This is exactly what she said to Jiuhan yesterday.

Yan Xiuchen is not here, which is perfect, she can go... take a good look.

Jiang Qingwu wanted to refute, but when he thought of the carriage just now, he changed his mind.

"Then let's go to the palace. I want to see why he asked me to go there today."

Although they were invited to the palace, Jiang Qingwu still asked the coachman to park the carriage outside the wall of the West Garden.

But when he arrived, Jiang Qingwu was stunned.

As soon as he got out of the carriage, he was stunned and even suspected that he had taken the wrong road.

"Is this... Is this the palace? Why... is there an extra door?"

Wan Yue sighed and nodded repeatedly at Jiang Qingwu, "I told you long ago that you can't keep climbing over the wall. It's not good to climb over the wall."

As she spoke, Wanyue handed over a key.

"Key? You actually have a key?"

Wan Yue smiled and nodded, "His Highness gave it to me. He said that the girl is used to going to the West Garden, and this door..."

Before Wanyue could finish her words, Jiang Qingwu stepped on the courtyard wall and jumped over.

"Well, I walk this way because it's convenient. It would be so troublesome if I had to get a key to open the door every time."

When Wanyue opened the door and came in, Jiang Qingwu stood still and clapped his hands, "Give the key back to Yan Xiuchen, I don't need that."

Wanyue looked at the key in her hand, then looked at Jiang Qingwu who was walking away, and couldn't help but sigh, "This door was opened in vain."

Jiang Qingwu was familiar with the route and headed directly towards Beiyuan.

No one dared to stop them along the way, and no one close to Jiuhan and Yan Xiuchen was even seen.

Jiang Qingwu didn't stop until he reached Beiyuan, outside Yan Xiuchen's room.

He also became sneaky in an instant, looked around, and lowered his voice to Wanyue, "You stand guard outside the door, I'll go in and take a look."

"Ah? Girl, you want to...you sneak into His Highness's room, what are you going to do?"

"Don't worry about it, just keep watch for me."
