Back to the day I married my second wife, I turned around and married my ex-husband's uncle

Jiang Ningwan was caught off guard. She felt a buzzing in her head and a burning pain on her cheeks.

The surroundings were silent, and the crisp sound of the slap lingered in Jiang Ningwan's ears for a long time.

"Oh! Master! Why are you doing this..." Qi shouted in panic, but the pride in her eyes could not be hidden.

Duke Jiang was shocked for a moment and felt a little regretful.

But once this slap is delivered, it cannot be taken back.

Jiang Ningwan's eyes were red, but her expression was calm. "Now I know why Mom divorced me. It's because you only care about your own face. You can't protect anyone."

Qi held her arm and said, "Wan'er, stop talking back. Your father is doing this for your own good."

Jiang Ningwan pulled his arm back coldly, not wanting to touch her.

Duke Jiang's face was sullen, and he sternly said, "As long as I'm here, you can never think of getting a divorce!"

Jiang Ningwan's eyes were firm and unwavering. "I want a divorce, not asking for your opinion."

After saying that, Jiang Ningwan turned around and opened the door.

There was a person sitting outside the door.

The man in the wheelchair was dressed in a dark suit with gold patterns, looking very noble. His hair was slightly raised on his temples, and his cold face showed a sense of alienation.

The moment her eyes met his, his sharp gaze seemed to see through her.

Jiang Ningwan's heart trembled. He really came.

The sixteenth son of the retired emperor, the god of war who once conquered the north - King Qin Shuangchi of Chu.

"Your Majesty."

Duke Jiang was also startled, "Your Majesty, when did you come?"

"Just arrived." Qin Shuangchi said indifferently.

Jiang Ningwan raised her eyebrows and asked, "Did Your Majesty hear our conversation just now?"

"Then the fact that Qin Beihuang is impotent, isn't that..."

Hearing this, a ripple appeared in Qin Shuangchi's calm eyes.

Duke Jiang and Madam Qi were terrified. Duke Jiang quickly pulled Jiang Ningwan away and said, "What nonsense are you talking about!"

It's natural that the fewer people who know about this kind of scandal, the better. How could she be so stupid!

Jiang Ningwan pretended not to notice the hint from Duke Jiang's eyes, "Since Your Highness has heard it, I would like to ask Your Highness to judge for you."

"As the old saying goes, there are three types of unfilial behavior, and the worst is to have no descendants."

"If a woman is childless, her husband can divorce her based on the seven grounds for divorce. But Qin Beihuang is impotent and even resorts to such despicable tactics as burning love incense. He has no moral integrity. Why can't I divorce him peacefully?"

Her frank and powerful words stunned everyone present.

"Shut up! Aren't you ashamed?" Duke Jiang shouted in a low voice with a dark face.

Just then, a clear voice came and interrupted them.

"Of course it's possible."

Duke Jiang turned around with a look of disbelief.

Jiang Ningwan was also stunned for a moment. Ever since the King of Chu broke his leg, he had become withdrawn. He never responded to anything he didn't want to hear, and he would ignore people he didn't want to talk to.

Unfortunately, he had many military achievements and a noble status. He was loved by the empress dowager and favored by the emperor. No one in the entire Daning Kingdom dared to offend him.

She didn't hold out hope that Qin Shuangchi would answer her, and even thought that Qin Shuangchi wasn't listening to what she said at all.

She waited for the day when the King of Chu came just to spread the news that Qin Beihuang was impotent.

Anyway, it's not her who's embarrassed.

"My daughter's nonsense has made the prince laugh at her."

"I wonder why the prince came here today?" Duke Jiang quickly changed the subject.

Qin Shuangchi came here today to cancel the engagement.

The retired emperor had arranged a marriage between Qin Shuangchi and the daughter of the Jiang family. After Jiang Ningwan got married, the Jiang family was left with only Qi's daughter, Jiang Xiru.

After the death of the retired emperor, no one mentioned the engagement anymore, but since Jiang Xiru had reached marriageable age, both families had to take it seriously.

The King of Chu is like the Tianshan Buddha Lotus on the cliff of the snow-capped mountains. He is pure in heart and desires nothing. He does not want to get married and has come here today to cancel the engagement.

But he couldn't retreat.

Jiang Ningwan was lost in thought as she recalled things from her past life.

The clear and deep voice brought her back to her thoughts——

"This king has come to discuss the marriage and betrothal gifts."

what?

Jiang Ningwan began to doubt her ears.

Did she hear it correctly?

Why is it different? Didn't Qin Shuangchi come here to break off the engagement?

Upon hearing this, Duke Jiang smiled and said, "We were just about to discuss this with His Majesty."

"Your Highness, please come in and discuss this in detail." Duke Jiang made a gesture of invitation.

Then he said to Qi: "Go and call Xiru."

Jiang Ningwan was still standing there in shock. She turned around and looked into the hall. Her father had already started discussing the marriage with the King of Chu.

What went wrong? Why is it different?

Never mind, it has nothing to do with her.

Let’s get down to business first.

She went straight to the inner courtyard. When she was about to reach Qinghui Garden, a little maid ran up to her from a distance and said, "Miss, please go to the west wing to rest."

"No need, I'm already at Qinghui Garden." Jiang Ningwan took a step and was about to enter Qinghui Garden.

Ling'er was very nervous and quickly stopped her.

Seeing Ling'er's strange expression, Jiang Ningwan looked deeply into Qinghui Garden and asked, "Why don't you let me in?"

Ling'er hesitated and didn't dare to answer.

But in the yard, Jiang Xiru's crying voice could be heard: "Mother, I won't marry!"

Jiang Ningwan's eyes flashed.

What did Jiang Xiru say? She didn't want to marry?

In her previous life, the King of Chu broke off the engagement, and Jiang Xiru even jumped into the lake to commit suicide, so the engagement could not be cancelled. She was deeply impressed by this day.

How come things are reversed in this life?

She walked inside.

Ling'er was terrified and quickly followed her footsteps, explaining, "Miss, the second young lady is living in Qinghui Garden now."

"Xiaoxiang Residence is already being cleaned up. Miss, please rest in the west wing for a while."

Jiang Ningwan couldn't help but clench her palms. It turned out that after she got married, she no longer had her own yard.

You also need to go to the guest room to rest first.

With a bitter smile, she said calmly: "Don't be nervous, I won't make things difficult for you."

As I walked into Qinghuiyuan, I could clearly hear the quarrel in the room.

"You child, weren't you vying to marry the King of Chu?"

"After waiting for two years, the King of Chu finally came to discuss the marriage. What are you doing?" Qi was extremely anxious.

Jiang Xiru was very emotional. "I won't marry! I won't marry the King of Chu! Mother, I won't marry him!"

"Go and help me break off the engagement, mother. I can't marry the King of Chu!"

Qi was a little angry. "You are so impulsive, kid. Who is the King of Chu? Can we afford to offend him?"

"Besides, if you marry her, you will be the legal wife, the Princess of Chu! You won't have to endure so many years like your mother did."

"No matter what I say today, you must come with me to see the King of Chu!"

Qi dragged Jiang Xiru out the door.

Jiang Xiru fell to the ground, clutching the table leg tightly, and burst into tears, "Mom, please, I can't marry him..."

"I will die."

The moment Jiang Ningwan heard this, her eyebrows jumped and she clenched her fingers suddenly.

A chill crept into my heart.

In her previous life, Jiang Xiru married the King of Chu. One year after the marriage, she fell into the water and died.

Now Jiang Xiru is contrary to her usual behavior and is unwilling to marry the King of Chu.

Could it be... that she was also reborn?
