Back to the day I married my second wife, I turned around and married my ex-husband's uncle
Chapter 20 If you want me to consummate the marriage, you must apologize first
Jiang Ningwan turned around and went to the Imperial Hospital and asked Doctor Xu for the Ningjin prescription.
Doctor Xu repeatedly dissuaded her, "Madam, General Qin's illness can always be cured. Why bother taking the Ningjin Formula? This is a matter of life and death."
Everyone knew that Qin Beihuang brought his concubine into the mansion, which inevitably hurt Jiang Ningwan's heart, but it was not worth it to ruin her life by taking the Ningjin Formula for such a heartless man!
Jiang Ningwan's eyes dimmed as she said helplessly, "If I hadn't been forced, I wouldn't have come this far. I understand Doctor Xu's good intentions, but I've made up my mind."
In today's world, it is difficult for women to survive. If they cannot have children and cannot carry on the family line for their husband's family, it will be even more difficult.
When the news of her taking the gold-condensing formula spread, all men in the world would avoid her, which was exactly what she wanted.
Doctor Xu had no more words to offer and sighed helplessly, "Madam, please remember to prepare the medicine at the right time and with the right dosage. If you are not careful, it will be extremely harmful to your health."
"I'll keep an eye on it." She was no stranger to this medicine.
In her previous life, she had secretly prescribed the Gold Condensation Formula out of consideration for the Qin family's reputation, but this time she wanted the entire Kyoto to know.
When Jiang Ningwan left the Imperial Hospital with the Ningjin Prescription, she quietly wiped away her tears.
The imperial physicians in the Imperial Medical Bureau looked at her back with deep regret.
"Old General Ling used to love this granddaughter the most. Now that the Ling family is gone, she's been bullied to such an extent that she's forced to take the Gold Condensation Formula to end her own offspring."
"The Lu family is so cruel!"
After taking the Ningjin prescription home, Jiang Ningwan immediately asked Lichun to boil the medicine.
Soon, the whole government knew about it.
There was a lot of discussion for a while.
Princess Yi and Lu Qingheng were both shocked and found it unbelievable how Jiang Ningwan dared to actually take the Ningjin recipe, so they sent people to the Zhenyue Pavilion to keep an eye on her.
In the evening, Qin Beihuang returned from outside, and Jiang Ningwan immediately sent someone to invite him over.
She sat quietly on the soft couch, with hot medicine on the small table beside her, and the bitter smell of medicine filled the entire room.
"What? You don't want to pretend today?" Qin Beihuang stepped into the room with a sarcastic tone.
The Queen Mother gave him a deadline of half a month, requiring him to consummate his marriage with Jiang Ningwan to reassure Duke Jiang.
He originally thought that if he left Jiang Ningwan alone for a few days, Jiang Ningwan would eventually come to him for help, but he didn't expect that her true colors would be revealed after just one day.
"I won't pretend anymore." Jiang Ningwan said indifferently.
Qin Beihuang snorted coldly, "How can I be summoned and dismissed at will by you? You have driven me away twice. If you want me to consummate our marriage today, you must apologize first."
Jiang Ningwan's lips curled up in a cold tone. He wanted her to beg him humbly. It was really disgusting.
She took out the Gold Condensing Formula and placed it in front of Qin Beihuang. "This is what I asked for from the Imperial Hospital today. If you take this formula, you will never have children again in this life."
"You suspect that my words and actions are inconsistent. This medicine is my resolution. I will never bear your child in this lifetime."
After saying that, Jiang Ningwan picked up the medicine bowl and drank it all in one gulp.
Not a drop is left.
Qin Beihuang suddenly froze, looking at Jiang Ningwan's decisive action and the determination in her eyes, he felt as if his heart was hit hard.
It seems... I underestimated her.
Putting down the medicine bowl, Jiang Ningwan frowned bitterly, wiped the corner of her mouth, and said, "I took the Ningjin formula, so I won't have children, so there's no need to consummate the marriage."
"The Queen Mother will probably not put any more pressure on me."
"I just ask you to stay away from me from now on." The last few words could hardly hide the disgust.
Outside the door, under the eaves, the sound of Lichun sobbing could be heard. In the silence, the sound was disturbing.
Qin Beihuang suddenly became confused and left in anger.
He never thought that Jiang Ningwan was so ambitious that he would kill off his offspring to show his determination.
He seemed to have been wrong about her all along.
Qin Beihuang returned to Mo Yun Pavilion in a state of confusion and unrest. Lu Qingheng called him several times but he didn't hear him.
"Beihuang? What's wrong with you?" Lu Qingheng grabbed Qin Beihuang's arm.
Qin Beihuang finally came back to his senses. "Oh, nothing. Jiang Ningwan went to the Imperial Hospital today to ask for the Ningjin Formula?"
Lu Qingheng was slightly startled and asked curiously, "Did she use it to threaten you?"
Qin Beihuang frowned, "That would be great if it were that way."
"She drank the medicine in front of me."
These words shocked Lu Qingheng, and what made her even more uneasy was Qin Beihuang's reaction.
Qin Beihuang would definitely change his opinion of a rich girl who had been pampered in the inner chambers, as she could have such a character. After they got married, Qin Beihuang went to war, and they had little time to spend together, so there was no emotional foundation.
But if I continue to look at that enchanting beauty for a long time, and I start to fall in love again...
"Qingheng, you are also a woman, do you know what Jiang Ningwan is thinking?" Qin Beihuang couldn't understand.
"She is the apple of the eye of the Duke's Mansion and the Ling family. It's not impossible that she has a bad temper. If she lets her temper go and ruins herself for the rest of her life, she will definitely regret it in the future."
Seeing that Qin Beihuang was still frowning, Lu Qingheng quickly changed the subject: "By the way, I took part of the dowry and have collected more than 30,000 yuan. I can go buy the Tianshan Buddha Lotus tomorrow."
Hearing this, Qin Beihuang was deeply moved and hugged Lu Qingheng in his arms, "Qingheng, I'm glad to have you."
In the Pillow Moon Pavilion.
Jiang Ningwan pulled Lichun to sit down and wiped the tears from her face.
"Don't cry, silly girl."
"Miss, it's not worth it for you to do this..." Lichun couldn't stop crying.
Jiang Ningwan glanced out the window warily and said in a low voice, "I didn't drink the Ningjin Formula."
"I didn't tell you because I was afraid of being exposed."
In her previous life, for the sake of her mother and grandfather, she planned to spend her whole life with Qin Beihuang, so she took the Ningjin recipe.
But now she is ready for divorce, so how could she hurt her body for that unfaithful man?
So after leaving the palace, she went to Huichuntang and got a new prescription that was similar to the Ningjin prescription. If the residue was checked, no problems would be found, but the efficacy was very different and it would not harm the body if taken.
Lichun's eyes lit up, "Really?"
"It's absolutely true! But you can't let it slip."
Lichun nodded with a firm look.
After taking the Ningjin Prescription, Jiang Ningwan felt extremely weak for the first two days. She had to perform the full act and stayed in bed to rest without going out.
The news that she was taking the gold-condensing formula had already spread.
The Duke's Mansion was the first to explode, and Duke Jiang rushed to the General's Mansion in a hurry.
Being led into the room by the maid, seeing Jiang Ningwan sitting on the bed, weak and haggard, Duke Jiang's face turned pale. "Did you really take the Ningjin Formula and end up with no offspring?"
Jiang Ningwan nodded, "Yes."
"You are confused!" Duke Jiang was so anxious that he was running around in circles.
"A woman is worthless if she can't bear children! How long can you remain the mistress? Your husband's family will look down on you from now on!"
"Do you know what people are saying about you? You've completely disgraced me!"
Jiang Ningwan looked displeased, "You only know how to get angry at me."
"Lu Lingsong threatened me with the Duke's Mansion outside the Imperial Study, threatening to bring about the same fate for the Duke's Mansion and the Ling family. What can I do?"
"I took the Gold Condensing Formula for the Duke's Mansion, to give him peace of mind. I didn't steal anything from Lu Qingheng."
"If you have the guts, go and settle the score with Lu Lingsong."
"Is the dignified Duke a coward who only knows how to be mean to his daughter?"
