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

After roaring angrily, Ling Chaowen left angrily.

Jiang Ningwan was furious and wanted to catch up to him and teach him a lesson, but Ling Jinlan held her hand and apologized guiltily:

"Sister, I'm sorry. He must have been upset by Lin Qinglai's incident. Don't bother with him."

Jiang Ningwan glanced at Ling Chaowen's departing figure and felt a little angry.

"It has nothing to do with you. You don't have to apologize for him."

Qin Wenli sighed again: "I hope he can think it through and not get stuck in a rut."

"These are the only people left in the Ling family. We can't let anything else happen."

Ling Jinlan quickly said, "I'll try to persuade him again. I'm sorry to have caused my cousin so much trouble."

Jiang Ningwan took over the conversation: "Alright, leave him alone and let him calm down. I'll take Jinlan back to the Prince Chu's Mansion to rest."

Qin Wenli nodded.

Then Jiang Ningwan and Ling Jinlan got on the carriage and left together.

In a teahouse not far away, Lu Lingsong was secretly observing them.

Looking at the direction where Ling Chaowen left in anger, Lu Lingsong raised the corners of his lips in satisfaction.

Not long after, Lu Lingsong was taken to the government prison.

He slowly came to the cell where Lin Qinglai was imprisoned. Looking at Lin Qinglai sitting against the wall, he threw a tattered purse at Lin Qinglai's feet.

When Lin Qinglai saw the familiar purse, his calm face suddenly became excited and ferocious. He grabbed the purse and rushed towards the prison door.

"What happened to my mother?"

Lu Lingsong smiled and said quietly, "She's fine now, but I can't guarantee she'll be fine in the future."

As he spoke, Lu Lingsong threw paper and pen into the cell.

"Now, write a personal letter as I say."

"Just write...you confess that Jiang Ningwan captured your mother and threatened you."

Lin Qing looked at the purse in his hand, frowning and gritting his teeth: "I have already admitted my guilt and taken responsibility for everything, and you still won't let me go!"

Lu Lingsong said calmly, "This is the last time."

"Your usefulness will be gone after you're executed. I can't use your mother, so I won't touch her."

Lin Qinglai clenched his palms tightly, his heart filled with hatred.

But after a moment's silence, she picked up the pen and paper, knelt on the ground, and wrote the letter as Lu Lingsong said.

After writing it, she handed it to Lu Lingsong.

Her eyes were red as she glared at him angrily, "I hope you remember your promise. If you dare to touch my mother, I won't let you go even if I become a ghost!"

Lu Lingsong took the letter and took a look at it, feeling very satisfied.

"Don't worry, I won't lie to a dying man."

After saying that, Lu Lingsong put away the letter and said, "Also, if anyone wants to see you during this period, you must refuse to see them."

"I have spies in this government office. If you have met anyone, I will know exactly who they are."

Lin Qinglai felt a little doubtful.

But she had no choice.

Lu Lingsong left with the letter, waiting for Lin Qing to come and execute him, and then he would give the letter to Ling Chaowen.

By then, it will become Ling Chaowen's lifelong regret.

Because of the hatred of a life, Ling Chaowen and Jiang Ningwan will break up completely, and Ling Chaowen, the young Duke, can be used by him.

……

Prince Chu's Mansion.

Jiang Ningwan took Ling Jinlan out of the carriage.

When he arrived at the door, Ling Jinlan was frightened by the solemn atmosphere in the mansion and stopped in his tracks.

"Sister, is the King of Chu easy to get along with?"

Jiang Ningwan nodded. "Although he's usually cold, he has a good heart and is a nice person."

"You live in my yard. As long as you don't go to his yard, nothing will happen."

She has not yet found an opportunity to enter the King of Chu's study alone.

That is the place with the strictest security. As long as Ling Jinlan doesn't go there, nothing will happen.

But in order to keep each other safe, he took Ling Jinlan to see the King of Chu first.

Qin Shuangchi was sitting under the shade of a tree in the yard drinking tea.

"Your Highness, my cousin is coming to stay for a while. Would Your Highness mind?"

"If Your Highness minds, I will take her to live in the Duke's Mansion."

Qin Shuangchi's cold gaze swept across Ling Jinlan, his sharp eyes seemed to see through the disguise of weakness and innocence.

He said calmly, "Just arrange it."

Jiang Ningwan raised the corner of her lips, "Thank you, Your Highness."

Ling Jinlan also bowed gracefully, "Thank you, Your Highness."

Then Jiang Ningwan pulled Ling Jinlan to her yard. Ling Jinlan looked back at Qin Shuangchi with a deep gaze.

A room was arranged for Ling Jinlan, and the food, clothing and other necessities were all the best.

Li Chun prepared a decoction and brought it over, "Cousin, this is the cough medicine that the young lady prescribed."

Ling Jinlan took it and drank it up obediently, "Thank you, sister. I will trouble you in the future."

Jiang Ningwan smiled and put a few books on the table. "Why are you being so polite to me?"

"You've always loved reading. I don't have many books here. Please look at them first. I'll ask someone to buy some tomorrow."

"I'm going out during the day. If you feel bored, just read a book."

Ling Jinlan nodded. "I know my sister is very busy and doesn't need to worry about me. I don't dare to ask for a life like this now."

"It's good enough to not have to live in fear."

Jiang Ningwan brushed her hair lovingly, "You don't have to be scared anymore. I'm here for you."

Before I knew it, it was night.

After having dinner with Ling Jinlan, Jiang Ningwan was still worried about Ling Chaowen, so she sent someone to the Duke's Mansion to see if Ling Chaowen had returned.

But the answer he got was that Ling Chaowen had never returned to the Duke's Mansion.

After thinking about it, Jiang Ningwan felt uneasy.

Late at night, we arrived at the government prison.

I want to see Lin Qinglai.

But when she arrived at the prison, the jailer said, "Lin Qinglai said he didn't want to see anyone. General Jiang, please go back."

Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan frowned, "I need to ask Lin Qinglai about the Ling family case. I absolutely must see him!"

She insisted on seeing him, so the jailer had to take her outside the cell.

But Lin Qinglai was leaning against the wall with his back to her, and did not turn back when he heard her shouting.

Until Jiang Ningwan said, "Ling Chaowen is back."

When these words came out, Lin Qinglai trembled all over.

He turned around in shock.

"What? He's still alive!"

Jiang Ningwan nodded. "He was just brought back to Kyoto today. He's still alive, but he's a little emotionally unstable. He wants to see you."

"I hope you can explain to him what happened back then."

"He still has feelings for you."

Lin Qinglai's eyes suddenly turned red, tears welled up in his eyes, and his palms were red from pinching.

"I can't see you."

She was too embarrassed to see Ling Chaowen again.

I don’t know how to face him.

I don't want him to see me so ugly.

Jiang Ningwan was shocked. "You're about to be executed. Do you really not want to see him one last time?"

Lin Qinglai gritted his teeth and said, "No."

"Don't come here again. I don't want to see anyone anymore."

……

Early in the morning, Jiang Ningwan arrived at the Duke's Mansion.

But he learned that Ling Chaowen had not returned home all night.

The guard following Ling Chaowen came to report: "General Jiang, Young Master Ling is... in the brothel."

Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan clenched her fists in anger.

When he rushed to the brothel, he saw singing and dancing going on in the room, and Ling Chaowen was disheveled and drunk.

"Ling! Chao! Wen!" Jiang Ningwan was furious and rushed forward to snatch the wine jug from his hand.

Pull him up.

Ling Chaowen was drunk and smirked at her, "Why are you here? Come drink with us."

As he spoke, he picked up the wine jug, put his arm around Jiang Ningwan's shoulders and poured her some wine.

Jiang Ningwan angrily knocked the wine jug away and grabbed Ling Chaowen by the collar.

Snapped--
