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

After saying that, she went upstairs without looking back.

Lu Qingheng chased in in disbelief, but was stopped outside by the waiter, "Stop, young lady! No entry without an invitation!"

Lu Qingheng angrily said, "Did you read the invitation carefully? Are you sure it's not the King of Chu's name?"

The waiter said calmly, "Of course there is no mistake. Today's guest list has been released, and General Jiang is the one invited."

After hearing this, Qin Beihuang and Lu Qingheng both found it hard to believe.

how can that be!

Jiang Ning was invited to participate last month.

Qin Beihuang frowned. "Jinghong Pavilion has never invited the same person for two consecutive months. Why would they invite Jiang Ningwan again? Are you sure you didn't make a mistake?"

"Can you show me the list?"

He had seen the guest list for every monthly banquet at Jinghong Pavilion and had never invited the same person for two consecutive months.

There must be a mistake!

Seeing that they were not giving up, the waiter had no choice but to take out a piece of paper from his bosom, which also had golden bamboo patterns printed on it. This was the logo of Jinghong Pavilion.

Qin Beihuang took it and took a look. When he saw the three clear words "Jiang Ningwan" on it, his face froze and he was in disbelief.

"Let me see!"

Lu Qingheng took it and took a look.

Not only is Jiang Ningwan's name on it, but the name of King Chu is also missing. Only Jiang Ningwan was invited!

Did Jiang Ningwan drug the owner of Jinghong Pavilion?

Lu Qingheng was furious. He threw the list back to the waiter and turned away.

This Jinghong Pavilion is clearly deliberately opposing her!

She is determined to make Jinghong Pavilion unable to continue operating!

……

Inside Jinghong Pavilion.

The show has already begun.

What surprised Jiang Ningwan was that this performance was different from last month's.

But it still makes people's hearts shocked and their eyes brighten again and again.

Jiang Ningwan was amazed by what she saw.

The performance lasted for more than an hour in Jinghong Pavilion. When it ended, Jiang Ningwan felt as if only a moment had passed. The memory was still lingering in her mind, leaving her with endless aftertastes.

"Hey……"

Suddenly, a clear voice like a spring came from behind.

"Is the performance at tonight's banquet not good?"

Jiang Ningwan was startled and quickly stood up and looked back. A clean figure in white suddenly came into her sight. Her temperament, as quiet as an orchid, made Jiang Ningwan's breath catch.

It was as if she had walked out of a painting, a fairy who was not of this world.

One almost overlooks her stunning beauty.

Jiang Ningwan almost lost her mind and quickly replied, "The performance was great!"

"Why did the girl sigh?"

"Because I didn't see enough, I felt a little disappointed when it was over."

Hearing this, the woman smiled gently and said, "It is an honor for Jinghong Pavilion to be liked by you, young lady."

"My name is Shen Lianyi, and I'm the owner of Jinghong Pavilion."

Jiang Ningwan was pleasantly surprised and said with a smile, "I guessed it right. The banquet was so ingenious, the owner of Jinghong Pavilion must be a woman."

His figure was even more extraordinary than she had imagined, and his temperament was truly rare in the world.

"I also want to ask Miss Shen why she invited me again this month?"

And there was only her, not the King of Chu.

Shen Lanyi made a gesture of invitation, "The tea is ready."

Jiang Ningwan followed her upstairs.

I found that I could observe the guests below very well from here.

After sitting down, Shen Lianyi took out a jade-carved bamboo leaf, which was warm and exquisite.

"This is the Jade Leaf Token from Jinghong Pavilion. With this, you can come to the performance every month, no invitation required."

Jiang Ningwan looked at the Jade Leaf Order but didn't dare to take it.

"I'm very happy to meet Miss Shen, but I dare not accept this Jade Leaf without permission. What does Miss Shen see in me?"

Shen Lianyi was not in a hurry and smiled faintly: "Actually, I have been following Miss Jiang for a long time."

"I've remembered you since you rescued the girl from Qian Country and settled her in Huaifeng."

Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan was extremely shocked, "You know all this?"

Shen Lianyi nodded, "I also know that you helped Chen Yuzhu."

"I also know...you are the owner of Qianqiu Trading Company."

When Jiang Ningwan heard this, her expression changed slightly.

"Miss Jiang, don't be nervous. I mean no harm to you. I just admire you. I'm a businessman, so I naturally pay more attention to business matters. I won't reveal your secrets."

Jiang Ningwan smiled meaningfully and said, "Businessman? You opened Jinghong Pavilion not to make money, but that's not the way a businessman should act."

"Since you are meeting me today, why not be honest?"

Shen Lianyi smiled and said frankly, "I opened this Jinghong Pavilion just to let people appreciate my works, not for money."

"The business I'm talking about is another kind of business."

As he spoke, Shen Lianyi poured her a cup of tea.

Jiang Ningwan couldn't help but frown, wondering what Shen Lianyi's background was.

"Just tell me, what kind of business do you want to start?"

Shen Lianyi: "The chaos in Qian Kingdom is about to end. I hope to open Jinghong Pavilion to the capital of Qian Kingdom after the overall situation in Qian Kingdom is settled."

Jiang Ningwan couldn't help but frown, "What does this have to do with me? Just drive on over there."

Shen Lianyi smiled meaningfully, "But I need Miss Jiang's help."

"You have a close relationship with Ghost-faced Yama. With your help, Jinghong Pavilion will be able to open more smoothly."

Instantly, Jiang Ningwan felt a chill down his spine.

How does she even know this?

This Shen Lanyi is not simple!

"Who are you? Is your Jinghong Pavilion used to gather intelligence?"

"You are not from Daning, and you are probably not from Qian either."

She vaguely guessed what kind of business Shen Lianyi was talking about.

Shen Lianyi was slightly startled, a look of surprise flashing across his eyes.

Then he smiled with relief and said, "Miss Jiang is indeed smart."

"Are you interested in doing business with me? I might have the information you're looking for."

Jiang Ningwan raised an eyebrow, "For example?"

Shen Lianyi: "Qiu Cheng is not the one who will harm the entire Ling family."

Jiang Ningwan's palms tightened, "Lu Lingsong?"

Shen Lianyi smiled and said, "More than that."

“Qiu Cheng is just Lu Lingsong’s dog, and Lu Lingsong is someone else’s dog.”

"And there's more than one dog, and more than one person has harmed the entire Ling family. Lin Qinglai is the most inconspicuous knife."

"The Ling family's revenge has not yet been fully avenged."

At that moment, Jiang Ningwan's scalp went numb.

The only people she could think of behind Lu Lingsong were the Queen and the Crown Prince.

But from what Shen Lanyi said, there was more to it than that.

"How much more do you know?"

Shen Lianyi said helplessly, "I've told you everything I know. I'm already very sincere. If you're willing to do this business with me, I can help you continue your investigation."

"I can definitely find out more than you."

Jiang Ningwan naturally had no doubt about this. After all, Shen Lianyi had even found out that she had contact with the Ghost-faced Yama.

This Jinghong Pavilion should be an intelligence organization.

Shen Lianyi is either from Dahan or Dayan, the only two countries that border Daning.

"Okay, I'll do this deal!" Jiang Ningwan drank the tea in the cup in one gulp.

Just as Jiang Ningwan was about to get up and leave.

Suddenly a waiter ran upstairs, wanting to say something but stopping himself.

Shen Lianyi said calmly, "Miss Jiang is no longer a stranger."

The waiter then spoke: "Someone from the palace has come and asked us to prepare to go to the palace and perform for the emperor in seven days."
