Chapter 53: Ex-husband Becomes Eunuch
Moreover, the island is far away from the outside world. As long as the connection between the island and the outside world is cut off, even if the government wants to know the details here, it will be difficult to reach it, like shooting at a cow through the mountains.
While thinking, Jiang Lanxu had already captured the captain of this group of officers and soldiers. It was this captain who bullied them the most on weekdays.
Everyone knows the principle of capturing the leader first.
The captain was still shouting, "If you dare to kill me, the commander will find out, and then you will all lose your heads!"
Jiang Lanxu's blade was even closer to his neck, almost cutting his throat.
Seeing that his threats were fruitless, the captain's face suddenly changed, and his voice was trembling and pleading, "Please, let me go. I promise not to punish you again. I will pretend that what happened today never happened."
If we let him go, he will be a huge threat. Since he has already rebelled, there is no need to be merciful.
Jiang Lanxu raised his head and asked, "What should we do next?"
Jiang Nianwei lowered her eyes and thought for a while. When she raised her head, a trace of cruelty flashed in her eyes. She approached her eldest brother and said, "This person must be eliminated to deter the other officers and soldiers and make them understand that the end of resistance is only death. Only in this way can others choose to surrender and minimize our losses."
Jiang Lanxu was about to take action, but was ambushed by the soldiers behind him.
He turned around and used Bai Chang as a defense.
The officer's weapon pierced right through the captain's chest.
Bai Chang raised his head and looked at the soldiers in front of him in disbelief, "You...you killed me?" He soon lost his breath.
Jiang Lanxu turned around and killed the stunned soldier with a single blow.
Jiang Nianwei couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect that he would die at the hands of his own people, but since he is dead, we don't need to worry about it anymore."
Jiang Lanxu stood directly on the boulder and shouted to the soldiers who were still fighting: "Your captain is dead. Give up resistance and I will spare your lives!"
The remaining soldiers slowly put down their weapons when they saw that the captain was dead and the situation was hopeless. One of them even wanted to attack but was killed by A Zhao with one blow. The others did not dare to act rashly after seeing this.
Nanzhou Island was originally a small deserted island. There were not many officers and soldiers stationed here, and a small half of the residents were prisoners exiled here. Even if the population of the surrounding fishing villages were added together, there were less than two hundred people.
If they occupy this place, they can develop slowly.
All this happened suddenly, and Jiang Nianwei hadn't thought it through at this time, but her father Jiang Yan started out as a local official, so governing a small island with two hundred people shouldn't be a problem.
Thinking of this, the uneasiness in her heart gradually subsided. Perhaps all this was fate. Since things had developed to this point, she could only follow God's will and accept it calmly.
At this moment, a sneaky figure suddenly emerged from the depths of the dense forest.
He saw chaos before him, with tattered clothes and bloodstained weapons scattered on the ground, and even a few corpses lying there. He was so scared that his face turned pale and he was terrified in his heart. He ran away from this horrific scene.
But he was discovered by others and captured. Qin Ziqian was even more terrified when he saw the blood on Jiang Lanxu's blade.
His voice trembled, and he tried to keep himself calm: "You...what are you going to do? This is a treasonous act. Although Jiang Nianwei and I have become strangers, we are still husband and wife. I advise you to stop as soon as possible. Otherwise, once the court investigates, you will all die without a burial place."
Upon hearing this, Ah Zhao frowned and felt uncomfortable.
Could it be that the "Jiang Nianwei" that Qin Ziqian mentioned was referring to Sanniang? Was she already married?
Jiang Nianwei was unmoved. She walked to Qin Ziqian's side and spoke softly but with unquestionable firmness: "Now that things have come to this, there is no turning back. Qin Ziqian, I have long seen your cowardice and weakness, but I just didn't see through it at the beginning. You want to escape now, it's simply wishful thinking. If the mastermind behind you knew that you had openly rebelled, how do you think he would deal with you?"
After hearing this, Qin Ziqian's body trembled like a sieve. The man's methods were so cruel that they were beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
"As long as you tell me who that person is, I might consider sparing your life."
Qin Ziqian remained silent, as if he was struggling, "Let me think about it."
Duan Yun led a few people to search the forest, "We didn't find anyone else."
Only Qin Ziqian was found, but no one knew whether the others were alive or dead? But in any case, they were definitely still on Nanzhou Island, so Jiang Nianwei didn't have to worry about it anymore.
Without the constraints of officers and soldiers, they don't have to hide what they do, but now because of their special identities, they can't leave this place easily, so they might as well stay here and build their home.
Ah Zhao seemed to remember something and walked straight to the beacon tower on the seashore, with Jiang Nianwei following behind him.
She took a deep breath, tried to keep her tone calm, walked forward and said softly, "A Zhao, I'm really sorry that you were implicated in this matter."
She asked again tentatively: "You can leave here immediately, but I hope you can keep your mouth shut and not reveal what happened on the island to the outside world."
He shook his head indifferently, stretched out his hand and looked at his palm, "What happened today was also forced upon you. But I just found that when I killed someone with a knife, I felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity. I must have done something like this before."
Jiang Nianwei didn't want to hide it from him anymore, "You should have been a member of the Xie family army before. I'm afraid that's why you feel so familiar with holding the knife."
Ah Zhao nodded in understanding. So he was once a soldier? And Jiang Nianwei had indeed seen him before.
Suddenly thinking about what the man had just said, he hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "The man mentioned that you and he were once husband and wife. What...what is going on?"
Jiang Nianwei lowered her eyes, "I didn't mean to hide this from you. I was indeed married, but I divorced my ex-husband afterwards and we no longer have any relationship, but this doesn't seem to affect our friendship, right?"
Anyway, she had never thought about having another marriage, so it didn't matter even if she told Ah Zhao.
Ah Zhao saw that she was not shy about it, and said with a complicated expression, "My wounds haven't healed yet, can you let me stay here for now?"
There was always a trace of worry in Jiang Nianwei's heart. She was afraid that once A Zhao left here, the secrets of the island would be leaked to the outside world.
She once thought, if A Zhao chose to leave, would she also kill him?
Ah Zhao's decision to stay at this moment undoubtedly coincides with her inner expectations.
She didn't even notice it herself, but there was a hint of joy in her voice: "That's great, you can just stay here with peace of mind."
……
After a battle, there are bound to be injured people. The weather here is extremely hot and the wounds are very easy to get infected.
Jiang Nianwei brought Chunyu and Taozhi to help others treat their wounds.
First disinfect with distilled alcohol, then crush the herbs and bandage the wounds of the injured. After only a few teachings, Chunyu and Taozhi have become proficient.
She then quietly walked to Ah Zhao's side and treated his wounds. His upper body was bandaged, with old and new wounds, and blood was oozing from the bandages.
Jiang Nianwei handled it very carefully, afraid of hurting him, but he just kept frowning and said nothing.
After learning that Jiang Nianwei had been married before, he felt an indelible bitterness in his heart.
Ah Zhao finally broke the silence, but his voice was a little hoarse, "Is your maiden name Nianwei?"
Jiang Nianwei paused while treating the wound. "Well, but you should still call me Sanniang. I'm the third child in the family, and everyone calls me that."
In the mottled light and shadow of the sunlight, Ah Zhao quietly watched her carefully applying the herbal medicine. He could also see her slightly blinking eyelashes, with an unspeakable feeling in his heart.
Jiang Nianwei raised her head, and her eyes met Ah Zhao's. Ah Zhao turned his head away awkwardly.
Jiang Nianwei noticed something unusual and asked with a hint of doubt: "The wound on your abdomen seems to have split open again."
She was puzzled, remembering that when the wound was sutured, every detail was handled extremely carefully.
Moreover, she checked it many times afterwards and found that the wound had almost healed. How could it split open again for no reason?
Ah Zhao just smiled calmly and said softly: "It's okay, I don't feel any pain."
Only he himself knew that the wound was cut by himself with a knife. Only in this way would Jiang Nianwei feel guilty and the two of them could have intimate contact.
Seeing her frown slightly and worrying about him, he felt happy in his heart.
It was not until Jiang Lanxu came over silently that the harmonious atmosphere between the two was disturbed. "Sister, Qin Ziqian said that he has thought it over and wants to talk to you."
Jiang Nianwei then stood up. When Ah Zhao heard this, he immediately followed her. Seeing her doubtful expression, he explained, "I'm afraid your ex-husband will do something bad to you, so I want to follow you to protect you."
"Ah Zhao, thank you for your kindness." Jiang Nianwei tilted her head slightly and looked at Ah Zhao who was following closely behind her. Her voice was a little soft. "But my elder brother is by my side right now. He will protect me. You should rest here for a while. I will be back soon."
When she saw Qin Ziqian again, her eyes suddenly became stern, "Have you thought about it?"
He nodded slightly, but his eyes revealed a bit of helplessness and contempt: "Even if you know all the truth, so what? How can the Jiang family compete with that huge force now?"
"This has nothing to do with you."
"It was Prince Yu. It was Prince Yu who asked me to do this."
There was a flash of disappointment in Jiang Nianwei's eyes. She thought he would repent, but he was still as stupid and ignorant as before.
She sighed softly and said in a cold tone: "Prince Yu?"
Her fingers gently stroked the thin needle, the tip of the needle flashing with cold light, "Do you see this needle clearly? As long as I push it gently, it will pierce your brain and make you die with a splitting headache."
"Jiang Nianwei, you are so cruel. We used to be husband and wife."
That day, there was a violent storm and a typhoon. He was separated from everyone else and drifted alone in the wind and rain.
If it weren't for the steamed bread soaked by rain in his arms, he would have collapsed from hunger and despair.
He thought he had escaped death, but unexpectedly he fell into Jiang Nianwei's hands.
"You also know that we were once husband and wife, so why did you frame the Jiang family? It is obvious that you have been using me from beginning to end."
Qin Ziqian lied to her, but Jiang Nianwei had already guessed something. In the book, Qin Ziqian's next partner was the prince.
Prince Yu has the most hostile relationship with the Crown Prince. Could it be that the real mastermind behind this is the Crown Prince?
However, a cloud of doubt arose in her heart. Her father was the prince's tutor. He taught her earnestly and devotedly, and had never said or done anything that was detrimental to the prince. Why would the prince point the finger at their Jiang family for no reason?
She didn't know the reason. As Qin Ziqian said, their strength was too weak now, and they had no chance of winning if they really wanted to compete with the prince.
But you can reap the benefits while sitting back.
She turned to look at the terrified Qin Ziqian and asked, "Do you know why you feel unwell recently?"
Although Qin Ziqian is usually dull, he vaguely guessed something at this moment.
Ever since he married Jiang Mian, he found that he was gradually losing his ability as a man, and his former vigor was long gone.
He stared at her with eyes wide open in disbelief, his voice trembling: "Could it be... could it be that all this was done by you?"
"Isn't it a little late to understand it now? To be precise, it should be the food that Jiang Mian prepared for you before. I specially prepared it for you through her. The food contained a special drug that would make men lose their abilities and become more and more like women. What is the difference between you and the eunuchs in the palace now?"
The moment Qin Ziqian learned the truth, his body began to tremble involuntarily, and his voice was trembling with a trace of difficulty. "You vicious woman, you are crazy, I will kill you!"
She sneered, "I used to think that 'poisonous woman' was just an insult, but now I think it's a compliment. Ziqian, haven't you always wanted a child? From now on, you probably won't have any more children, and the Qin family will be extinct."
Thinking of this, she felt an incomparable joy in her heart. "Tell me, if your mother, your current wife, or Meng Wanran knew this news, how would they view you? I am looking forward to seeing their reactions."
Qin Ziqian gritted his teeth, as if he was going to pounce on Jiang Nianwei and strangle her to death, "You can't tell them!"
Seeing the look of despair on my ex-husband's face was such a relief, but even more painful torture was yet to come.
She pinched his mouth again and stuffed a pill in it, "This is a reward for you lying, enjoy it slowly."
Qin Ziqian was tied up and unable to move. He yelled, "I won't let you go even if I become a ghost! Jiang Nianwei, come back here. I admit defeat. I don't want to die yet!"
……
When Jiang Nianwei walked out with a smile on her face, she found Ah Zhao leaning against the wall, as if waiting for her.
When Ah Zhao saw her coming out with a happy face, he felt a little uncomfortable.
He coughed lightly, trying to hide his emotions, but there was a subtle stiffness in his voice: "What did you and your ex-husband talk about that made you so happy?"
"We're just catching up. What else can we talk about? Why are you so concerned about what we're talking about?"
