Back to the day I married my second wife, I turned around and married my ex-husband's uncle
Chapter 190: The Imperial Decree Granting Marriage Arrived...
The two asked and answered each other. Although the King of Chu spoke little, his answers were always decisive and firm.
"I've treated you. How do you feel?"
"much better."
Seeing this scene, the emperor was speechless and could not find any reason to hold Jiang Ningwan accountable.
The Queen Mother stared at them in amazement. The atmosphere between the two was quite good, and then she smiled in relief: "You too, should have informed me beforehand before using such a dangerous method to treat an illness. Won't this lead to misunderstandings?"
Qin Shuangchi spoke slowly: "This is my own illness. I don't want too many people to know about it, so I decided to try it in the mansion."
"I just didn't expect someone to go and file a complaint. I was unconscious at the time and couldn't testify on Ning Wan's behalf."
Hearing this, the Queen Mother's face turned stern again. "This talkative person is just hoping for chaos in the world!"
"This frame-up of Ning Wan is unforgivable!"
Things have come to this point, and the emperor has no choice but to take action.
"Zhou Tingxu is also worried and confused. I heard that the King of Chu was in a coma for two days and she was the one who took care of him, so she gave him a lenient sentence."
"Make her apologize to Jiang Ningwan, kneel for a day, move back to the Zhou family, and study hard to calm down."
……
Prince Chu's Mansion.
Zhou Tingxu was wandering anxiously in the front yard. Her aunt said that if she could help her get the imperial decree granting her marriage, she would become the concubine of Chu in a legitimate way.
Why hasn't the imperial edict arrived yet?
Seeing her anxious, Qingyun comforted her, "Miss, you are the main reason why the King of Chu can wake up this time. The imperial decree granting marriage must not have come yet! Let's go back to the room and wait. It's very windy outside."
Zhou Tingxu couldn't hide his joy. "Thank goodness you were smart enough to discover in time that Jiang Ningwan had bitten the King of Chu with a poisonous snake."
"No matter what Jiang Ningwan's reasons were, biting the King of Chu with a poisonous snake is a heinous crime punishable by death!"
"Who knows, maybe the imperial decree granting marriage this time will not be for a concubine, but for the principal wife!"
Thinking of this, Zhou Tingxu couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips, "Princess Chu..."
The dream I had when I was young and ignorant is finally about to come true.
Just then, the King of Chu came back!
Zhou Tingxu was startled and hurried forward to greet him, but the next moment he saw Jiang Ningwan behind the King of Chu.
She's back too?
Eunuch Hai also came. Zhou Tingxu could not hide his excitement. It must be the imperial decree granting the marriage.
"The Emperor has ordered that Zhou Tingxu falsely accuse Jiang Ningwan of harming the King of Chu, causing unnecessary trouble. He is ordered to apologize, kneel for a day, and be sent back to the Zhou family."
As soon as the words came out, the smile on Zhou Tingxu's face froze instantly, and he turned pale with shock. "What?"
Jiang Ningwan pushed the King of Chu into the courtyard and swept a cold gaze over Zhou Tingxu.
"Hurry up, I'm going to rest after I apologize."
Zhou Tingxu looked at Eunuch Hai at the door, then looked at King Chu, and was unable to accept this fact.
Her eyes were red with grievance, "I saved the prince..."
Looking at everyone's indifferent eyes, Zhou Tingxu apologized with a choked voice: "I'm sorry!"
Jiang Ningwan raised an eyebrow. "Kneel here for a day. There are many people coming and going, so it's a good opportunity to supervise you."
Zhou Tingxu bit his lower lip tightly, trying hard to hold back his tears, his heart filled with resentment.
But he could only kneel down in public.
My face was burning and I felt completely humiliated.
Seeing this, Eunuch Hai also went back to report.
Jiang Ningwan went back to take a shower, change clothes, and had a good sleep.
When I woke up, it was already night. The cold wind was howling, and the figure kneeling in the yard was swaying and almost fell down several times.
Qingyun took the cloak and put it on Zhou Tingxu, but it was still unable to withstand the cold of the winter night.
"Miss, it's all my fault that you were harmed..." Qingyun's voice choked.
"I don't blame you." Zhou Tingxu gritted his teeth and couldn't stop shaking.
Sooner or later, she will get this account back from Jiang Ningwan!
Before daybreak, Zhou Tingxu collapsed from his kneeling position. Qingyun came running to plead, "General Jiang, please spare our young lady. If she continues kneeling, someone will die."
Jiang Ningwan casually put on her clothes. "Kneeling for a day is the emperor's order. If you want to ask for it, you should go to the emperor. It's useless to ask me."
"I have no right to let her get up."
Zhou Tingxu was forced to kneel in the front yard for a whole day and was sent back to the Zhou family in a coma.
"Finally got rid of this trouble, close the door!"
The Prince of Chu's Palace finally returned to its original peace.
Jiang Ningwan raised poisonous snakes in her mansion to treat the King of Chu.
Last time I didn’t grasp the timing of poisoning well, but now that I have experience, I am more adept at it.
There has never been another case of vomiting blood or falling into a coma.
As winter approaches, the weather gets colder, and Jiang Ningwan has added winter clothes to everyone in the mansion.
Xiao Lan couldn't wait to put it on, feeling refreshed and not wanting to leave. "This dress fits me perfectly. I haven't worn new clothes in a long time. Thank you, Madam!"
"Your Highness, have you tried on your new clothes? Do they fit you well?"
Jiang Ningwan pushed the door open and walked in, carrying the medicine.
Xiao Lan said awkwardly, "Your Highness...hasn't put it on yet."
When I walked into the room, I saw Qin Shuangchi sitting on a mahogany lounge chair in front of the window, reading quietly. The scene outside the window was bleak, and the cold wind blew his hair.
The white dress was extremely thin, adding to the coldness.
For some reason Jiang Ningwan felt a withered feeling, which she didn't like.
"Your Highness, the winter clothes delivered yesterday don't fit you?"
Qin Shuangchi put down the book with his pale hands, "No, it's just..."
"Just what?"
Jiang Ningwan said as she took the new clothes out of the closet.
A red and gold brocade robe with silver thread and flowing cloud patterns.
"I don't go out on weekdays, so there's no need to dress so well."
Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan frowned, "Then you should go out more often!"
"Come, I'll help you change!"
Jiang Ningwan picked up the clothes without saying a word and put them on him. Qin Shuangchi's face was calm, his brows slightly furrowed as if he was a little dissatisfied, but he did not stop Jiang Ningwan.
He let Jiang Ningwan put on new clothes for him. When he was tying the belt, Jiang Ningwan leaned over and put her arms around his waist, and her ear accidentally brushed against his cheek.
The strange touch immediately disrupted the breathing of both of them.
Qin Shuangchi's ears felt hot and he lowered his eyes to hide the panic in his eyes.
After tying the belt, the golden belt wrapped around the slender waist actually revealed a hint of murderous aura.
"Your Highness hasn't dressed like this for a long time. He looks so energetic!" Xiao Lan couldn't help but sigh.
Seeing Qin Shuangchi like this, Jiang Ningwan felt better.
I quickly handed him the medicine and said, "After you finish the medicine, I'll take you out for a walk."
They didn't take a carriage for today's trip, so Jiang Ningwan just pushed Qin Shuangchi along the street.
The cold wind whistled and hurt my face.
Xiao Lan was extremely worried and followed behind in the carriage, "Your Highness cannot stand the cold. If you feel cold, why not get in the carriage?"
Qin Shuangchi was slightly startled, and suddenly realized that he was not cold at all. In previous winters, he stayed in the warm room and could not go out, but recently he seemed to be less afraid of the cold.
Could it be the effect of Jiang Ningwan’s recent treatment?
"The King is not cold."
Before I knew it, there were more carriages on the street ahead, and they all seemed to be heading in the same direction.
Jiang Ningwan took a closer look and found that the carriage seemed to be parked outside the Duke Ling's Mansion.
Out of curiosity, he pushed Qin Shuangchi to take a look.
It was very lively and bustling with people coming to Duke Ling’s mansion.
"Is the Ling family holding a banquet? Lichun, go ask."
Lichun nodded in agreement and ran towards the gate.
Just then, two familiar figures walked down from the carriage next to them.
It was Qin Beihuang and Lu Qingheng.
Lu Qingheng walked over lovingly holding Qin Beihuang's arm and smiled at Jiang Ningwan, "What a coincidence! You're also coming to the banquet at Duke Ling's Mansion?"
"I remember you severed ties with the Ling family, didn't you?"
