Don't panic if your home is confiscated or you are exiled, just empty the warehouse and stock u

At this moment, Lu Yong seemed to have been drained of all his strength. His body leaned there limply, and he could hardly make even the slightest sound.

Only in his eyes, there was still reluctance.

It’s all my fault. I wasn’t on guard enough against this woman!

He trusted her easily and thought she was really sincere to him, but it turned out that it was all a disguise. She was secretly collecting evidence to bring him down.

"I've already missed it once, and I won't make the same mistake again this time. Only if you die can I legitimately take back the Jing family's assets."

Jing Xiangxue felt relieved when she saw Lu Yong being thrown into jail. She felt that her revenge after so many years was finally avenged.

Lu Yong lay on the dirty floor of the prison, struggling like a puddle of mud.

After the poison took effect, he was paralyzed. Now even eating is a huge problem for him. He can only move to the side of the bowl and eat slop like a dog.

He was sentenced to be executed in the autumn of next year. The time in prison was undoubtedly a torture for him. It was enough for Lu Yong to suffer before he died.

Jing Xiangxue stood outside the cell and watched this scene, but she couldn't smile. The fact that her parents couldn't have a good end was the most painful thing in her heart.

Hu Hao felt guilty and did not make things difficult for the Jing family.

After finding out the truth, he returned everything that originally belonged to the Jing family to Jing Xiangxue, and also gave the Jing family additional rewards.

"I am truly ashamed. If it weren't for the help of your distant relative, I would still be kept in the dark."

Jing Xiangxue said politely, "Master Hu, don't talk about you. I was also kept in the dark by him at the beginning, otherwise how could I end up with my family broken up."

Although the Jing family's property has been recovered now, his parents have been murdered, and the pain they have suffered over the years cannot be compensated.

"In any case, you and Sanniang have provided great support to me in solving the case. Sanniang also saved my mother. You should be rewarded! If you need help in the future, I will do my best to help you!"

After he finished speaking, he bowed and performed a solemn salute to Jing Xiangxue and Jiang Nianwei.

The two could only quickly stop him and said, "You must not do that. Your Excellency's actions are truly embarrassing for us."

Hu Hao said sincerely: "As a child, I am grateful to you two for saving my loving mother from danger."

After half a month of quiet recuperation, Mother Hu's health gradually recovered. Jiang Nianwei also left her a few tonic pills, "This medicine can prolong life. The old lady can take one pill every month."

Hu's mother was extremely grateful, and since Hu couldn't become her grandson's wife, she wanted to adopt her as her adopted daughter.

Jiang Nianwei politely declined: "I feel honored by the old lady's kindness. If I rashly acknowledge her as my relative, I'm afraid it will mess up the generations."

Mother Hu felt regretful when she heard this, but she also admired Jiang Nianwei's knowledge and reason even more. She smiled and said, "In this case, although you and I are not blood relatives, we are also close friends. Sanniang, remember, in this Linzhou, if there are villains who dare to bully you, just come to me. The Hu family will definitely be your solid backing and protect you!"

Jiang Nianwei bowed again: "Thank you, old lady!"

The matter was settled, Jing Xiangxue got rid of his most hated enemy, but he also suddenly felt unwell and fell ill.

Jiang Nianwei put her hand on her wrist and examined her carefully with her eyes closed: "You fell ill this time. I'm afraid it's because you worked too hard recently. In addition, you got your revenge, and you were so sad and happy that you were exhausted."

During this period of time, she advised Jing Xiangxue to let go of everything and cultivate herself in peace. She also prescribed some modern medicines for her.

Jing Xiangxue had a dream while she was drowsy.

There was a heavy snowfall in Jing Mansion, and everything around was white. She felt lost standing in the snow.

When she looked up, she suddenly saw her young parents standing not far away. She wanted to chase them, but they smiled and turned back, waving their hands: "Xue'er, go back. I'll drop you off here."

When she opened her eyes again, she found that she was in tears.

Jiang Nianwei, however, held her hand with concern, and her expression finally relaxed: "Aunt, you are finally awake!"

While Jing Xiangxue was recuperating, Jiang Nianwei took over the Jing Mansion's business and carried out a major purge, eliminating redundant staff, restoring order, and re-establishing rules.

After this battle, the business community of Linzhou City is radiant.

Jiang Nianwei was immersed in the complicated daily affairs of the Jing Mansion, and her brows unconsciously showed a bit of solemnity.

But she saw Duan Yun coming to find her with a small bag. She was suspicious: "Could it be that you feel it's too hard here and want to escape back home?"

Duan Yun knew she was joking and shook his head helplessly. "Before leaving, Ah Zhao promised to help me find a way to join the Red Fire Army. Now I have received the order and will soon become a member of the Red Fire Army. I came here today to say goodbye to you."

Jiang Nianwei's hand holding the pen suddenly trembled, and she stood up suddenly, and asked in surprise: "You want to join the army too?"

Duan Yun nodded firmly, "You know that wearing armor and holding a spear to protect my country is what I want in my heart. This is a letter from home. I hope Miss Jiang can pass it to my mother when she returns."

"Okay, I understand." Jiang Nianwei sighed and took the letter from home.

Suddenly I thought of my sister. I wondered how she would feel when she learned that Duan Yun had joined the army?

So he continued to ask: "Besides this, is there anything else you want me to convey?"

Duan Yun's eyes darkened, and he took a deep breath before he slowly said, "Can you tell Siyu for me that I have never thought of looking down on her. What I said that day was all out of anger. I regret it now. I also hope that she can get what she wants, and I hope that she... won't be so cold all the time."

"Si Yu is definitely not a narrow-minded person, she will definitely understand you." She paused, then said: "Duan Yun, protect yourself, you must return safely!"

Duan Yun scratched the back of his head unconsciously, and then said firmly: "I will definitely return safely! But, Miss Jiang, is there anything else you want me to pass on to Ah Zhao?"

Jiang Nianwei sighed softly, turned around and walked into the inner room, and soon took out a bag of clothes, "I heard that Youzhou is very cold, so I made shoes and clothes for Ah Zhao. In addition, this bag of silver is for Ah Zhao, so that he can take care of it, and this bag is specially prepared for you. I hope your trip goes smoothly and everything goes well."

Duan Yun weighed the heavy purse in his hand, knowing that there must be a lot of silver in it, and said hesitantly: "This is too much."

Jiang Nianwei smiled warmly and consoled him, "You have helped me a lot these days, which is definitely not measurable by money. Just accept these. When you are away from home, you need to take care of everything."

Duan Yun was grateful in his heart: "Thank you very much, Miss Jiang."

Jiang Nianwei looked at his departing back, feeling melancholy and not knowing how far the war would go.

She was unable to make accurate predictions about the current tense situation and could only concentrate on the tasks at hand.

Seeing that Jiang Nianwei was still unhappy after the man left, Yuwen Long could not help but persuade her, "Miss Jiang, don't worry. With my young master protecting her, nothing will happen to your friend."

He thought to himself, after all, Prince Yu is the God of War of Dasheng, he is extremely brave on the battlefield, invincible, and has never lost a battle. With him around, the Chihuo Army will surely return victorious.

Jiang Nianwei's eyes moved slightly: "I hope so."

As soon as Duan Yun left, she devoted herself to the busy work.

Shuangshuang sensed something was wrong. Why was this Mr. Jiang acting so mysteriously and insisting on doing things behind her back?

She thought to herself, "Could it be that there is something hidden from my boss? No, I have to investigate it thoroughly."

While tracking Jiang Nianwei, she discovered that there was actually a master hiding nearby, constantly disrupting her tracking, which made her extremely angry.

On this day, the two finally met on a narrow road, and the conflict was about to break out, and they fought fiercely in Jiang Nianwei's yard.

When Jiang Nianwei came back from her trip, she found that the roof was almost blown off by the two men, and the flowers and plants in the yard were ravaged and in a mess.

Shuangshuang put her hands on her waist, with an unyielding pride between her brows: "You thief, what do you want from following Master Jiang all the time? Do you want to kill him for money?"

Yuwen Long was even more unyielding and retorted loudly: "I think you are blind. This is obviously our master's wife, Master Jiang, and I am protecting his wife's safety..."

Shuangshuang gently stroked her forehead, her eyes full of confusion, and suddenly she realized: "Madam? So that's how it is... No wonder!"

She realized later why the two of them were behaving so intimately.

She had always felt that Master Jiang's behavior was not manly enough, and he had pierced ears like a rabbit doll, so this could explain it all.

Jiang Nianwei only felt the corners of her mouth twitching slightly, "Yuwenlong! Who gave you the courage to reveal my identity without permission!"

Yuwen Long heard the anger in her voice, and sheathed the sword in his hand instantly. He began to move in a panic and bowed quickly: "Miss Jiang, I was reckless and said too much at the time, but please consider that I still have a little strength to help you solve your problems. I hope you will be magnanimous and forgive my only mistake."

Seeing him so serious, Jiang Nianwei suddenly realized that after Ah Zhao was gone, no one shared her troubles with her. Her temper had become more and more irritable recently, and then she waved her hand:

"Okay, now that you know it, it doesn't matter. But you two must restore this yard to its original state before sunset! Otherwise, you won't get any roast goose tonight!"

Yuwen Longpa was filled with fear: "No! This is absolutely not possible."

The head may be cut off and the blood may flow, but this roast goose must not be missed!

The tense atmosphere between the two of them just now disappeared immediately.

Yuwen Long picked up the broom on the ground and started to sweep. "If we work together, we can definitely get back to normal. I promise!"

While Shuangshuang was tidying up the yard, her eyes unconsciously looked towards Jiang Nianwei.

She murmured to herself, "So you are not Mr. Jiang, but Miss Jiang. I was blind and didn't notice it."

Shuangshuang knew that she couldn't believe what the boss said. Although he was a martial arts expert, he was not smart at all. It was not surprising that he was completely unaware of it.

Knowing that Jiang Nianwei was a woman, she couldn't help but feel closer to her, and her words became more gentle and warm: "Miss Jiang is beautiful and kind-hearted. I really admire you for being able to come up with so many ways to bring down that scum Lu Yong."

Jiang Nianwei knew what she was thinking: "Don't come up with any sweet words to beg me. I mean what I said just now. If the courtyard can't be restored to its original state, you won't have roast goose!"

Shuangshuang lowered her head in disappointment, knowing that this trick was no longer effective: "I understand, Miss Jiang."

This was naturally just a minor episode. With the help of Jiang Nianwei, the two of them finally cleaned up smoothly and ate the roast goose they had been craving for.

Shuangshuang was eating roast goose and talking with Yuwenlong. They found out that they were in the same industry.

Jiang Nianwei watched the two of them playing and fighting, and couldn't help but think of Yazhou's brother and sister, "I wonder how they are doing?"

Now everything in Linzhou has been handled properly, and with the help of Lord Hu, all obstacles have been cleared.

My aunt's health is gradually recovering, and it's time for her to go back to Yazhou to check on the situation.

The next morning, as the light of dawn approached, Jiang Nianwei wanted to say goodbye to Jing Xiangxue.

Upon hearing the news, Jing Xiangxue's eyes were filled with reluctance and tenderness. She stroked the back of her hand and said softly, "Nianwei, why don't you stay in Linzhou for a few more days? Once you leave, the mansion will become even more deserted. I can't help but feel reluctant to let you go."

The Jing Mansion had just been carefully renovated and looked brand new, but as the head of the family, she couldn't leave easily at this moment.

Jiang Nianwei could only console him: "I have many things to deal with on this trip back. When I come back someday, I will bring Jingzhuo with me, and I will also bring my parents to reunite with you."

The only person Jing Xiangxue was thinking about now was Jing Zhuo. Hearing her say this, her heart was naturally full of anticipation, and she couldn't help but sigh.

After thinking for a moment, she said solemnly: "I originally wanted to discuss this with you later, but now that you are leaving, I have made a decision directly. You planned to take back everything in the Jing Mansion, so it should all belong to you. You can dispatch merchant ships at sea and use manpower at will. When you come back, I hope you can become the head of the Jing family."

After experiencing this period of time, she had already discovered that Jiang Nianwei's courage, insight and strategy were far superior to her and Jing Zhuo's. If everything was handed over to her, she would definitely be able to carry forward the Jing family business.

Jiang Nianwei quickly refused: "Aunt, this is absolutely not possible."

Jing Xiangxue's attitude was very firm: "We are a family connected by blood, why do you have to say such polite words? I see that you are thoughtful and courageous, and you will definitely be able to handle business with ease. On the other hand, I know Jing Zhuo's character very well, and he is not the right material for this job. The position of the head of the Jing family must belong to you."

"Aunt, you also know my current status. I am a criminal. Let's discuss these matters after I am freed from the criminal record! But don't worry, no matter what, I will make the Jing family revitalize and become the number one business in the Great Sheng Dynasty!"

Jing Xiangxue wiped her tears and held her hand tightly: "Okay."

"There are still some things that I hope my aunt can do secretly when I'm not around." She whispered a few words in Jing Xiangxue's ear.

"Really do this?"

"Well, just listen to me, there will be absolutely no problem."

This time when they returned to Yazhou, they came back with a lot of loads, not only bringing many Linzhou specialties, but also cutting-edge technology and sophisticated equipment.

Jing Xiangxue suggested that Jiang Nianwei send a few more merchant ships, but Jiang Nianwei politely declined her offer.

"Many merchant ships running side by side can easily attract attention and generate unnecessary suspicion. Only by keeping a low profile can we achieve long-term success. Moreover, this is only the second voyage after the initial exploration of this route, so we should be cautious."

"That's true. I didn't think it through."

Before Jiang Nianwei left, Jing Xiangxue stuffed a thick stack of banknotes into her hand and said, "Aunt has nothing else to give you, only these belongings. You must accept them no matter what."

Jiang Nianwei accepted it "reluctantly". Who would complain about having too much money?

……

Youzhou City, Yilan Pass.

Baili Zhao rode his horse at a rapid speed, covered in dust and with the whip fluttering, he finally passed through numerous obstacles and arrived at the border area where war was raging.
