Back to the day I married my second wife, I turned around and married my ex-husband's uncle
Chapter 17: A Woman Should Take Her Husband as Her God
Why would the imperial physician come to his house for no apparent reason to deliver these medicinal herbs to him?
Jiang Ningwan looked innocent, "What does it have to do with me? How can I invite so many doctors?"
Qin Beihuang gritted his teeth, unable to understand what was going on.
"General, please don't be angry, otherwise taking so many tonics will only make you more irritated and harmful to your health."
After saying that, Jiang Ningwan slowly turned around and left, the smile on her lips no longer able to be suppressed.
You can't blame her for drugging her and then going to complain to her father.
But it was indeed beyond her expectations. She didn't expect that the King of Chu would invite five imperial doctors in such a grand manner.
The fact that Qin Beihuang was impotent could not be concealed.
Thinking of this, Jiang Ningwan immediately went out shopping.
Sure enough, while having lunch at Guangfeng Restaurant, I heard people discussing this matter.
The northern wilderness of Qin is ineffective.
Word has spread.
Even faster than she expected.
"It's unbelievable that General Qin is impotent at such a young age. Is this true?"
"Five imperial doctors have gone, how could it be fake?"
"I heard that all the aphrodisiac herbs in the Imperial Hospital were sent there. Everyone in the palace knows about it. How could this be false?"
After hearing this, Jiang Ning ate her dinner even more happily.
Lichun sat nearby, not wanting to eat, and listened intently to the discussions around her.
He whispered, "Miss, the matter has become so serious. If General Qin wants to dispel the rumors, he can only make General Lu pregnant as soon as possible."
Jiang Ningwan was slightly startled. Li Chun's words reminded her.
In her previous life, Lu Qingheng became pregnant soon after she married into the general's mansion, but the child was not kept. It was five years later that she had another child.
She was in charge of the household at the time, and she failed to discover Lu Qingheng's pregnancy in time and take good care of her. When the child was lost, Qin Beihuang blamed her.
He never gave her a good look in the five years after that.
I remember it was winter.
During those five years, she also investigated and found out that the reason why Lu Qingheng lost her child was because of her poor health and she couldn't keep the child. Otherwise, she wouldn't have gotten pregnant with her second child after five years.
However, because the discovery was made late, when Qin Beihuang was told, Qin Beihuang no longer believed anything.
"Miss?" Li Chun's call brought her back to her senses.
After coming to my senses, I thought that we were about to get divorced anyway, so I couldn't put the blame on her again.
Thinking about this, Jiang Ningwan picked up some food for Li Chun and said, "Eat quickly. We have things to do this afternoon."
After having lunch at Guangfeng Restaurant, Jiang Ningwan wanted to go to the palace to ask the emperor to issue an order for a divorce.
Unexpectedly, just as he left Guangfeng Restaurant, the curtain of a carriage parked on the side of the road was lifted, and a gloomy face came into view.
"Come up." Qin Beihuang's face was filled with anger and looked terrifyingly gloomy.
Li Chun nervously pulled Jiang Ningwan's sleeve, "Miss."
Patting Lichun's hand, Jiang Ning got on the carriage.
The carriage moved slowly towards the general's mansion.
"Mother's meals are almost dry, but you are enjoying the delicious food at Guangfeng Restaurant alone." Qin Beihuang said in an unhappy tone.
Recently, the expenses of the general's mansion have been cut in half, and everyone is tightening their belts. However, Jiang Ningwan actually came to Guangfeng Restaurant for dinner.
Jiang Ningwan said calmly, "Before I married here, wasn't this the life in the General's Mansion? The General has completely forgotten about it."
Qin Beihuang's face was sullen. "But you are already a member of the General's Mansion. Family members should share joys and sorrows. What other wife is like you, only caring about herself?"
Jiang Ningwan didn't bother to pay attention.
She ended up like that because she was too cautious in the past.
Qin Beihuang suddenly asked, "Let me ask you, did you tell the King of Chu anything?"
"I'm not familiar with the King of Chu."
"The King of Chu went to the Duke's Mansion yesterday, and you went there too."
"so what?"
Jiang Ningwan's nonchalant attitude made Qin Beihuang furious. He pinched Jiang Ningwan's face with his palm and forced her to look at him directly.
"Jiang Ningwan! What on earth do you want to do?!"
"Do you think I dare not divorce you?"
He consummated his marriage with her but she drove him away, yet she spread rumors outside that her husband was impotent. Qin Beihuang really didn't understand what she wanted.
Jiang Ningwan struggled to free herself from his hand and rubbed her aching face. "General, if you really dare to divorce me, I will respect you as a man."
But Qin Beihuang didn't dare.
The Lu family has made great military achievements and is now in its heyday. If he divorces Lu Qingheng after marrying her, people will only think that Qin Beihuang is a heartless and unfaithful person who is trying to curry favor with the rich and powerful.
If you do not cultivate your personal morals, it will inevitably affect your future career.
What's more, she is the daughter of the Duke. Qin Beihuang doesn't have the courage to offend the Duke's Mansion. His father cares about face and reputation the most.
Qin Beihuang clenched his fists and slammed them down on the stool, gnashing his teeth as he said, "You've done all this just to unleash unrest in the General's Mansion and force me to divorce Qing Heng, right?"
"Qingheng is the only love of my life. Even if you use every possible means, you can't win my heart."
Jiang Ningwan couldn't help but think of the tragedy of her past life, feeling a chill in her heart. She couldn't help but ask, "When we were sharing hardships, you said we were family, but now you want to distance yourself from me. Is my role just to provide you with a life of luxury?"
Qin Beihuang asked in return, "I've given you the position of mistress, the power to manage the household, and unlimited glory, yet you're still not satisfied?"
"If you want a child, Qingheng is willing, but wasn't it you who drove me away that night?"
Hearing this disdainful tone, Jiang Ningwan sneered inwardly, "So, should I kneel down and kowtow in gratitude?"
"I can get these things no matter who I marry. Why do you have to act so gracious?"
Her words choked Qin Beihuang so much that he had nothing to refute.
Before they knew it, the carriage stopped in front of the general's mansion.
Jiang Ningwan got off the carriage and was about to leave, but Qin Beihuang grabbed her wrist and forcibly dragged her to Jinhuaju.
"what are you doing!"
"Mother wants to see you."
When Jiang Ningwan entered the main hall of Jinhuaju and saw Princess Yi sitting on a chair with a dignified look on her face, with several maids holding rulers standing beside her, she immediately felt something was wrong.
"What is this for?" Jiang Ning sat down before going to bed.
"Get up!" Princess Yi shouted coldly.
Jiang Ningwan remained steady, "Mother, are you going to punish me? There has to be a reason."
"I spoiled you in the past, thinking you were a good girl who knew how to behave and was loyal to her husband. I never set any rules for you or taught you any family precepts. I never imagined you would be colluding with a man outside your family and ruining your husband's reputation!"
The sick Princess Yi slammed the table in anger, using all her strength.
"Today you will kneel here and recite the family motto and the commandments for women. I will watch over you until you finish!"
"If you can't recite it well, the ruler in Mammy's hand will show no mercy."
"You can only eat after you finish memorizing it!"
Jiang Ningwan couldn't help but clench her palms, "My parents never asked me to memorize these."
When she first married in, she also said that she would set up rules. Coincidentally, the debt collectors came to her house at that time, and she stepped forward to pay off the debts owed by Prince Yi during his lifetime. Then, Princess Yi changed her attitude and never mentioned the rules again.
Now that he refuses to pay, the rules are back in effect.
Princess Yi emphasized her tone and said sternly, "That's your mother's fault. Today, I will teach you the most important rules on your mother's behalf."
"Women, your husbands are your gods!"
