Back to the day I married my second wife, I turned around and married my ex-husband's uncle
Chapter 106 Lu Qingheng's Statue
There are many people like Aunt Yang.
Some kneel down and some make wishes.
There was also an elderly man holding his granddaughter's hand, pointing at the statue and teaching her: "When you grow up, my daughter, you must be like General Lu Qingheng, a woman who is as brave as a man, defending the country with courage and fearlessness."
Jiang Zhouye clenched his fists in anger, "Damn it, I really want to smash her to pieces!"
Everyone around who heard the sound looked over with a hint of caution and danger.
Jiang Ningwan quickly pulled Jiang Zhouye over and covered her up, saying, "It's just a jade pot. I'll smash it when I get back. Forget it."
Then the group left in silence.
Only then did he escape from those dangerous gazes.
Back at the inn, Jiang Zhouye grew increasingly angry. "All the clues are gone. How can we uncover Lu Qingheng's actions?"
"Yang Wanning was killed by Lu Qingheng, and her aunt was so devout that she knelt down to worship Lu Qingheng's statue!"
"If Yang Wanning knew, she would be so angry that she would come back to life!"
Jiang Ningwan's mind was filled with Yang Wanning's tone and expression, which showed her deep hatred for Lu Qingheng. She felt as if a huge rock was pressing on her heart, making her feel very blocked.
"Let's bury Yang Wanning first. We haven't found any evidence yet, so we can't expose the matter. So, we won't carve her name on the tombstone for now."
In the eyes of the people of Huaifeng, Yang Wanning died in Qian Kingdom, and the sudden appearance of her grave at this time would arouse vigilance.
On the same day, several people buried Yang Wanning's body.
Touching the rough, nameless stone tablet, Jiang Ningwan tightened her fingers slightly, "The day Lu Qingheng's statue falls, I will carve your name on it."
"Your injustice will one day be made known to the world."
The sun sets in the west, and the last ray of sunlight shines on the stone tablet.
……
General Yan only gave them two days, but the time was up and Jiang Ningwan and the others could no longer stay in Huaifeng.
I can only return to the barracks first.
Taking advantage of the darkness, he quietly hurried back.
Two figures sneaked towards the Fourth Battalion. Jiang Zhouye rubbed his eyes and said, "This is strange. My eyelids have been twitching all the way here."
"You think we won't be discovered? If Lu Lingsong finds out, I'm afraid he'll punish us severely."
Jiang Ningwan comforted him, "It's okay, General Yan will help us."
She was also uneasy.
But when the soldiers come, they will cover up the water and earth.
We made it back to the Fourth Battalion safely, but strangely, it was dead silent.
No one.
It was pitch black and there were no lights on.
"Where are all the people? They're not still training so late, are they?" Jiang Zhouye looked around but didn't see anyone.
Jiang Ningwan went to the small kitchen and opened the lid of the pot. The pot was empty and the stove was cold.
"By this time, Lao Liu should be here cooking."
"How could it be possible to train for so long?"
"Go out and look for it."
For some reason, Jiang Ningwan felt increasingly uneasy. She quickly ran out of the second camp and happened to meet Deputy General Bai not far away.
"Deputy General Bai, have you seen the people from the Fourth Battalion?"
Deputy General Bai looked serious. "Why did you and Jiang Zhouye come back from buying herbs only now? Something happened in your camp..."
Buying medicinal herbs?
"What happened? Were you punished?"
Deputy General Bai looked serious and said, "Follow me."
Following the footsteps of Deputy General Bai, we walked to a wide grassland. What caught our eyes were corpses covered with white cloths neatly laid out on the ground.
Jiang Ningwan's heart skipped a beat. "Aren't these the corpses we collected from the battlefield? Why are they still here?"
Next to them were Lu Lingsong and Lu Qingheng.
Before Deputy General Bai could speak, Lu Qingheng spoke up: "It wasn't the body we collected before, it was collected today."
"Everyone from the Fourth Battalion is here."
As soon as the words came out, it was as if a thunderbolt hit Jiang Ningwan's head, and his head buzzed.
impossible!
How can it be!
With trembling hands, she squatted down and uncovered the white cloth, revealing a familiar face.
Jiang Ningwan clenched her palms suddenly, her eyes red.
Old Liu...
Her throat tightened.
He then lifted the white cloth next to it, Chen Lihu.
They had been drinking celebratory drinks together the day before yesterday, and those smiling faces and voices were still echoing in her ears. How could he become like this after just two days of not seeing him?
There were sounds coming from all around, but Jiang Ningwan could not hear them, and her ears were filled with buzzing sounds.
When the white cloth in the front was lifted, Jiang Ningwan was shocked.
There was only blood-stained armor, but no corpse.
"General Yan's body has not been found yet, but his armor and gun were found on the cliff. The cliff is very high, and I'm afraid they have..." Qin Beihuang explained regretfully.
"How could this happen! What happened!" Jiang Zhouye asked sternly.
"The remnants of the Qian army are circling nearby. Today, we sent four battalions to eliminate them, but unexpectedly... they were completely wiped out."
Jiang Zhouye fell to his knees powerlessly, looking at the corpses all over the ground, unable to accept it.
Qin Beihuang patted his shoulder to comfort him.
When he walked to Jiang Ningwan's side, he stretched out a hand to comfort her, but then held back.
We can't let Qingheng misunderstand.
"You are the only two left in the Fourth Battalion. It's up to you to bury the bodies of these people." After Lu Lingsong finished speaking, he turned and left.
There was silence all around, and everyone left quietly.
Jiang Ningwan knelt beside Yan Yue's corpse, her soul drained out as she cried uncontrollably.
She couldn't understand why everything was gone after just two days of absence!
Suddenly, I felt someone approaching me, and Lu Qingheng's voice came with regret: "In fact, when they came back, many people were still alive, but their injuries were too serious, and other doctors couldn't treat them."
"But you're not here."
"If you could have come back a few hours earlier, you might have been able to save some lives."
"Who said you are the only one who can cure it?"
Lu Qingheng's tone was regretful, and every word he said was like a knife, stabbing Jiang Ningwan's heart.
Looking at Jiang Ningwan's painful and sad expression, a hint of coldness flashed across Lu Qingheng's eyes.
She must be feeling guilty to death.
It is best if you can't bear the blow and end your own life.
Jiang Ningwan's fingernails had pinched her palms until they were red, but she didn't feel any pain. The grief and hatred in her heart had completely overwhelmed her.
After Lu Qingheng left, Jiang Zhouye came to her side and held her shoulders, "Ningwan, Lu Qingheng did it on purpose. She wants you to feel guilty and remorseful. She's taking revenge on you!"
"Don't listen, don't think!"
Seeing Jiang Ningwan's eyes turning red and the whole person looking like he would be blown away by the wind at any time, Jiang Zhouye was extremely worried.
Jiang Ningwan gritted her teeth, a hint of hatred flashing across her tear-filled eyes, "I won't fall for your trick."
If she falls, who will avenge the Fourth Battalion of the Zhenxi Army?
Raising her hand to wipe away her tears, Jiang Ningwan lifted the white cloth and said, "I want to check their wounds. Cousin, help me!"
"it is good."
The two men got busy, taking off their armor and checking their wounds. They found that there were blue and black marks on the wounds, indicating that they were poisoned.
Jiang Zhouye was puzzled. "Strange, why are the poisons in their wounds some more severe and some less severe?"
"If the sword or weapon was poisoned, the severity of the poison wouldn't be that different for such a deep wound."
Jiang Ningwan frowned and thought, "It's not the weapons that are poisoned, it's the air that's poisonous."
"They were poisoned before they were injured. After the wounds, their blood came into contact with the poison in the air, resulting in these bluish-black marks."
Jiang Zhouye was puzzled. "Is there any difference in this method of poisoning?"
Jiang Ningwan's eyes turned cold. "The air was poisoned, most likely with toxic smoke. Either the enemy knew their route and could poison them at the right time, or the incident happened in a dense forest with perennial toxic fog."
"Clear out the remaining evildoers, it's very likely a trap!"
When Jiang Zhouye heard this and met Jiang Ningwan's eyes, his heart was shocked.
"Could it be..."
"Of course, this is just my guess. I still need to find evidence."
The two men collected the bodies and sorted out their belongings, preparing to take them back to their families.
When sorting out Yan Yue's armor, she found a token of the Zhenxi Army, and it actually had her name engraved on it.
Jiang Ningwan's heart suddenly trembled, and tears blurred her vision again.
"I want to see him alive or his body dead. I don't believe General Yan is dead!"
