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

Li Chun quickly comforted her: "No, Miss, the Duke didn't say he wanted to sever ties with you."

Although she didn't know what happened in Qinghui Garden, she saw the fire and knew it must be related to the young lady.

"Father and daughter, even if the bones are broken, the tendons are still connected. No matter how outrageous the young lady's behavior is, the Duke will not abandon her."

Jiang Ningwan buried her face in her arms and wiped away the tears from her eyes, "I don't want him anymore."

Thinking of what happened in the past, she felt only disappointment at her father's cruel and ungrateful behavior.

Back then, they were afraid that she would suffer if she married into the Qin family, so they increased her dowry several times more than planned. She always felt that even if her parents divorced, her father still cared about her as a daughter.

In the seven years of her previous life, although she did not often visit the Duke's Mansion, her father always cared about her. Knowing that she was sick, he sent boxes of medicinal materials to the General's Mansion.

But what she discovered today made her despair, and the little family affection she had left was completely shattered.

The Duke's Mansion is no longer her home.

"Go to Xingsheng Street."

……

The carriage stopped in front of the Ling family's gate.

In the seven years of her previous life, she never dared to set foot here. This was a scar in her heart that could not be touched.

Pushing open the long-dusty door, the cold wind blew in with dust, and the whole yard was deserted and extremely desolate.

Wherever the eyes go, memories of the past emerge in the mind, laughter, playfulness, warmth and liveliness.

She always thought that she could bring them back to reunite with her, but she didn't expect that they had already been separated from her forever and she was the only one left.

She sat on the dusty steps under the eaves for a long time, until it was almost dark. Li Chun came to remind her, and Jiang Ningwan got up and left.

After the divorce, he went to collect evidence to exonerate his grandfather, brought their bodies back to Kyoto for burial, and took back the Ling family mansion.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ningwan opened the black box and took a look at the Golden Crane Jade Pendant. Tomorrow she would go to the palace to ask for an imperial decree of divorce!

General's Mansion.

Late at night, the lights in Mo Yun Pavilion were bright.

Late in the night in the Qinbei wilderness, a windy one. He returned home exhausted and dusty, carrying the hundred taels of silver he had borrowed that day and placing them on the desk.

"Qingheng, can you calculate how much money we still need?"

Lu Qingheng was concentrating on calculating the accounts and did not answer.

"Qingheng, what are you calculating so seriously?" Qin Beihuang came forward and took a look.

After finishing the final calculation and seeing the amount, Lu Qingheng's eyes lit up and he immediately picked up a list and handed it to Qin Beihuang.

"Today I checked Jiang Ningwan's dowry. Part of it was prepared by the Ling family for her before the incident. According to the law, this part of the dowry must also be confiscated."

"The Ling family has good connections in the court, so they failed to carefully examine this part of their property when their property was confiscated. Look, the land, houses, and shops alone are worth 20,000 taels, not counting the jewelry and treasures. At least 30,000 taels."

"If we report this to the Emperor and recover this portion of the dowry, it would be a huge loss for Jiang Ningwan."

After hearing this, Qin Beihuang couldn't help but frown. "General Ling's brother went south to do business and became the richest man in the area. The source of this money should be clean. Reporting this to the emperor is a bit mean."

Lu Qingheng's expression froze slightly.

He quickly added, "General, we're not really going to do this."

"I'm just using it to threaten Jiang Ningwan. No matter what, we should get the Tianshan Buddha Lotus first to stabilize our mother's condition."

Qin Beihuang was still a little hesitant. "If that's the case, won't people say we're after her dowry? And then Jiang Ningwan will use this as an excuse to make trouble."

Thinking of the humiliation he had suffered from Jiang Ningwan, Qin Beihuang felt very suffocated.

Lu Qingheng's palms tightened slightly. "Then if we pool money like this, when can we get 30,000 taels?"

Qin Beihuang had a headache. "Let me think about it."

In late autumn, the fog grows thicker and the coldness sets in.

At noon, Jiang Ningwan finished washing up and prepared to go to the palace to ask for the imperial decree of divorce.

When passing the front yard, he saw several imperial doctors.

She was hurriedly led to Jinhuaju by her maid.

"With so many imperial doctors, is Princess Yi's illness so serious?" Li Chun was a little surprised.

Jiang Ningwan also felt a little worried. If someone really died, Qin Beihuang and Lu Qingheng would definitely blame her for Princess Yi's death.

Still have a look.

She hurried to Jinhuaju.

Five imperial physicians arrived and gathered in Princess Yi's room.

After the imperial physician took the patient's pulse, they discussed the matter together and then wrote out two prescriptions and gave them to Qin Beihuang.

"General, one is for colds, and the other is for headaches, but headaches are an old ailment, so these medicines may not be effective. We've tried our best."

Qin Beihuang accepted the prescription with a serious expression, "Thank you, Imperial Physicians."

"Thank the Emperor for me."

Doctor Xu replied, "It was His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu who sent us here."

Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan at the door was slightly startled.

Qin Beihuang was also a little surprised. "It turned out to be the Sixteenth Imperial Uncle. Then please ask the imperial doctors to thank the Imperial Uncle on my behalf. I will see you off."

Qin Beihuang made a gesture to invite him in, but Doctor Xu took Qin Beihuang's wrist and took his pulse, his expression very solemn.

"What's this, Imperial Physician?" Qin Beihuang was puzzled.

Doctor Xu pondered, "General, you seem to be fine. May I ask, how long have these symptoms lasted?"

Qin Beihuang looked bewildered. "What are the symptoms?"

Doctor Xu said meaningfully, "I understand."

"It's really hard to talk about such an unspeakable secret."

"Our Imperial Hospital has reviewed relevant medical records overnight and selected the most effective prescription. General, please try it first. It must be taken one hour before sexual intercourse and not during the day."

As he spoke, Doctor Xu took out a prescription from his bosom and handed it to Qin Beihuang.

Several imperial physicians stepped forward and handed over several brocade boxes. "The herbs are ready, and they're all very nourishing! The general is full of vigor and vitality, and he'll be as vigorous as a dragon and a tiger in a few days!"

The more Qin Beihuang listened, the more he felt something was wrong. He casually opened a brocade box and asked, "What is this?"

"Tiger whip."

In an instant, Qin Beihuang's head buzzed and his face turned red.

Jiang Ningwan, who was standing at the door, almost laughed out loud. The King of Chu really cared about his nephew and invited so many imperial doctors to treat Qin Beihuang's hidden illness.

"Doctor Xu, you must have misunderstood. Why are you giving me this?" Qin Beihuang was eager to explain, "I'm fine. I don't need this!"

Doctor Xu understood and said, "Don't worry, General. We will keep this a secret and no one else will know."

"I am resigning."

As the imperial physicians prepared to leave, Qin Beihuang, his face livid, chased after them, holding the herbs in his hand. He said firmly, "Take them! I don't need them!"

Doctor Xu comforted him, "Don't worry, General. You are still young. This is not a difficult disease to treat. You will get better."

"I still have to go back and report, General, please stay."

After saying this, several imperial doctors left in a hurry.

Qin Beihuang chased out and saw Jiang Ningwan here, his face became even uglier.

"What are you doing sneaking around like that?"

Jiang Ningwan looked at the brocade box in Qin Beihuang's hand with suspicion and asked with concern, "General, these herbs look very valuable. What is wrong with you?"

"General, please take care of your health."

Qin Beihuang was so angry that his chest was suffocating. He asked, "Is it you who did this?"
