After rebirth, I rejected the Regent, but he pursued me instead

"Oh no, Song Qiyan is in trouble, we have to rescue him quickly!"

Jiang Wanyu ran out of the house in a hurry.

Just now she received a letter from Song Yunfu, from which she learned that the Queen had been making some moves in the past few days, as if she was planning something, and not long ago, the commander of the imperial guards secretly left the palace under the Queen's instructions.

Come to think of it, now that Song Qi Yan is out busy again, it is hard not to think that the purpose of the commander of the imperial guards leaving the palace this time is not Song Qi Yan.

"Qingluan, do you know where Song Qiyan went?"

"The prince is investigating Minister Chen today, and it seems he has tracked him down to the Fushan Temple outside the city."

After a pause, Qingluan looked at Jiang Wanyu's panicked expression and felt uneasy. She asked hurriedly, "Madam, could it be that something happened?"

"It's too late to explain."

Jiang Wanyu untied the horses of the carriage, then quickly climbed on the horses and ordered, "Qingluan, quickly gather the remaining subordinates of Song Qiyan to go to Fushan Temple. Second brother, come with me to rescue Song Qiyan."

"it is good."

After that, the three of them left.

-

Outside the Fushan Temple, Song Qi Yan took Qing Xuan to spy on everything in the temple.

"It's strange to say, Minister Chen has always enforced the law impartially, why would he suddenly rebel now?"

Qingxuan looked at the scene where a carriage gradually stopped outside the temple, a man in black slowly got off the carriage, walked into the temple and secretly met with Chen Wei, and couldn't help but ask a question.

Song Qi Yan ignored him and stared at the man in the black robe and mask, secretly trying to figure out his identity.

Who is so powerful as to threaten Chen Wei? Who is behind him? And why is he talking to Chen Wei here?

Song Qiyan always felt that there was something strange about this matter.

But at this moment, the man in black took what he wanted from Chen Wei and was about to leave.

"Your Highness, why don't you take action? The man in black is about to run away!"

Qingxuan was getting anxious as he saw Song Qiyan was hesitant to take action.

Think about it, they have tried so hard to track down Chen Wei in the past few days, and only found out that Chen Wei and the man in black will meet here again tonight. If they missed tonight, the man in black might not show up easily again.

"If we don't take action now, I'm afraid we won't be able to return home for several days."

That's true. I've spent a lot of effort on this matter these days. It won't be a solution if I delay it any longer.

After some hesitation, Song Qi Yan decided to take action.

"Let's do it."

At Song Qi Yan's wave of his hand, Qing Xuan and his followers surrounded the man in black soon after.

"Chen Wei, do you know that treason is a capital crime? How dare you betray the court?"

Song Qiyan pointed his sword at Chen Wei, but Chen Wei just begged for mercy from the man in black in panic, "You said that as long as I help you, you will let my family go."

"Of course, but Master Chen, I'm afraid you can't stay."

After saying that, the man in black raised his knife and slashed across Chen Wei's neck with lightning speed.

In an instant, Chen Wei died from a broken neck.

"How dare you kill Chen Wei!"

Song Qiyan looked at Chen Wei, who had died at the hands of the man in black, in amazement. He gritted his teeth, hating himself for being a step slower. He immediately raised his sword and asked, "Tell me, who are you?"

Song Qiyan touched the black-clothed man's throat with his sword, trying to figure out his figure. He felt like he had seen him somewhere.

"How about Prince Jing take off his mask and then talk?"

"!"

Song Qi Yan's face was filled with panic. No one except his confidants knew his identity. How could this person know it now? He gradually felt uneasy.

Suddenly he realized that this battle might be directed at him, and immediately wanted to disperse everyone.

"Retreat quickly, this battle is in doubt."

As soon as Song Qi Yan finished speaking, dozens of arrows attacked from all directions, making it impossible to defend against them. Several of his men were even shot to death.

"Oh no, the prince is cheating!"

Qing Xuan became alert and, together with the others, protected Song Qi Yan. However, enemies attacked from all directions and separated them alive.

Watching his men being defeated one by one, Song Qiyan stood in the panic, dazed for a moment. He had arranged everything by all means, so how come he was now being turned against?

It's impossible. Either someone betrayed him, or there was something he hadn't touched.

Feeling that he had fallen into a trap, he had to fight hard and attacked the man in black with his sword.

Suddenly, there was a flash of white light, and the sharp sword slashed towards the man in black with a swift attack.

However, the man was so agile that he didn't hit him, but only chopped off his mask, which actually hit Song Qi Yan instead.

Song Qi Yan stepped back, spat out a mouthful of blood, and when he raised his eyes, he saw the man's true face.

"Wu Zhengda is actually you!"

"Song Qiyan, stop pretending. Now that you are in my hands, I'm afraid you can't go back."

Over the years, in order to help Wei Qingyue, he had always been careful with Song Qi Yan. Then three years ago, he happened to see Ye Xianzhou secretly talking to Song Qi Yan, and he saw something was going on.

Later, after several secret investigations, he finally figured out the whole story a year ago - Song Qiyan was secretly replacing important officials in the court.

He originally wanted to get rid of Song Qi Yan, but it seemed as if the emperor was secretly protecting him, making all his methods ineffective.

Now that Song Chengzhong is dead, he should clear this obstacle for Xier.

Thinking of this, Wu Zhengda set out to kill Song Qiyan and forced him alive into the temple.

-

Not long after, Jiang Wanyu and Jiang Sheng arrived outside the Fushan Temple.

Jiang Sheng wanted to ride away on horseback with a gun, but was stopped by Jiang Wanyu.

"Now that the two sides are in contact and reinforcements have not arrived, we must not act rashly. We should now see the situation clearly before taking action."

"Too."

Jiang Sheng was anxious but helpless, so he gritted his teeth and put his hand away. He hid in a dark corner with Jiang Wanyu and observed.

But what they saw was the battle between the two parties outside the temple, and Song Qiyan's men were outnumbered and in danger.

I looked around, but couldn't see any sign of Song Qi Yan.

"Why can't I see Song Qiyan?"

"I'm afraid he was forced into the temple."

Jiang Wanyu looked at the chaotic fight in front of her. Now Wu Zhengda's target was Song Qiyan, so it was impossible for him to be let off so easily.

"Then what should we do? If this drags on, Song Qiyan will be in danger."

"I have a plan."

Jiang Wanyu leaned over to Jiang Sheng's ear and said, "Do this first, then this..."

"No! This is too dangerous. I can't let you in alone. What can you do alone? If I lose you, Song Qiyan might as well lose his own life."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Qingluan hasn't come yet, the Netherworld Sect is in a tough battle, Qingxuan can't even take care of himself, and Song Qiyan is in the temple. I see no one on either side of the temple. I'm afraid there are only the two of them in the temple. This is the best time to save Song Qiyan."

"Besides, I'm wearing this outfit just to save Song Qiyan."

Jiang Sheng glanced at Jiang Wanyu. No wonder she changed into plain clothes and brought self-defense weapons. It turned out that she wanted to come and rescue Song Qiyan in person. If he had known earlier, he should have left her behind and come here on his own.

"Brother, please help me. It's not that I don't want you to save me, but you are the only one who can attract the enemy's attention. This way I can take the opportunity to break in."

"Well, you must be more careful."

"Ah."
