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

Jiang Ningwan was startled and stopped immediately.

Shen Lanyi also glared at him in shock, blaming him for revealing his identity.

Xie Chenyuan said helplessly: "If I don't tell her, she won't let me go with you."

"If we insist on fighting, there will be no result, so why bother?"

Jiang Ningwan was still in shock and hadn't recovered yet. She kept looking at the two of them.

"I told you guys you looked a bit similar, but you guys pretended not to know each other before! Good acting!"

The brother and sister looked at each other, both feeling a little embarrassed.

"So you are the Princess of Dayan? You actually run such a large intelligence organization in the Daning Kingdom."

Jiang Ningwan was shocked and impressed.

Shen Lianyi raised an eyebrow helplessly and glanced at Xie Chenyuan sideways, "He opened Jinghong Pavilion."

"I just came to Daning Kingdom to do business."

Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan looked at Xie Chenyuan in shock, recalling his words of praise at Jinghong Pavilion that day. Now that she thought about it, she realized that he was actually praising her...

Xie Chenyuan felt a little embarrassed, and quickly clasped his fists in gratitude, saying, "I'll definitely repay you for saving me today someday!"

"When I return to Dayan, I will definitely persuade my father not to start a war!"

"The covenant will not be broken."

Jiang Ningwan nodded and asked, "Do you have enough manpower? Can you ensure safety along the way?"

Shen Lianyi took over the conversation: "As long as your identity is not exposed, you can return to Dayan safely."

"We'll pretend."

"For safety reasons, I won't tell you the route."

Jiang Ningwan quickly said, "It's best not to tell me. I don't want to know. I wish you a safe journey!"

"Then let's go our separate ways at the next intersection. It would be bad if I were discovered leaving Kyoto and someone could track you down."

It's safer to separate early.

"it is good."

At the intersection, a group of people split into two teams and moved forward separately.

There was only one carriage, and in order to make it easier for Xie Chenyuan to hide, Jiang Ningwan rode slowly back to Kyoto.

As expected, before we even reached Kyoto, someone arrived on horseback.

"Jiang Ningwan, why are you riding a horse when you're pregnant?"

Qin Beihuang looked at her in disbelief.

Jiang Ningwan frowned in annoyance, "Are you following me?"

She didn't believe that Qin Beihuang and she met by chance. This road was so remote, it was impossible for Qin Beihuang to come here for no reason.

"I just happened to see you leaving the city." Qin Beihuang could not hide the worry between his brows.

Glancing at the person behind Jiang Ningwan, he asked, "What are you doing?"

"Get some fresh air, can't you?"

Jiang Ningwan rode his horse around him and slowly returned to Kyoto City.

Qin Beihuang didn't say anything, just followed her silently and escorted her back to Kyoto City.

It wasn't until Jiang Ningwan returned to the vicinity of the Chu Palace that she became impatient and asked, "Do you still want to follow me back to the Chu Palace?"

Qin Beihuang was misunderstood again, but his heart was no longer disturbed. He did not explain, but only warned: "Sixteenth Uncle has left Jingdu City. There are so many eyes staring at the child in your belly. You should be careful."

"Don't leave the city if you have nothing to do."

Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan scoffed, "Who gives you the right to control me?"

She turned and rode away.

After watching Jiang Ningwan return to the Prince of Chu's Mansion, Qin Beihuang turned around and left silently.

……

Perhaps because Xie Chenyuan was found, there would be no war between the two countries, so Jiang Ning slept soundly that night.

However, in the second half of the night, there was movement in the mansion again.

Jiang Ningwan was startled awake and shouted outside, "Lichun!"

Li Chun hurried into the room and soothed her, "Princess, it's okay. The assassin was caught as soon as he entered the palace!"

"I've asked them to lower their voices, but it's really..."

Jiang Ningwan nodded and rubbed her eyebrows.

"These assassins deliberately disturbed my sleep."

The Prince of Chu's palace was heavily guarded, making it difficult to assassinate her.

But if any noise is made, the assassins will sneak into the house, which will inevitably cause chaos and panic.

"Is the princess still going into the palace?" Lichun felt that the palace must be safer than outside.

"I will enter the palace tomorrow."

Jiang Ningwan decided to go to the palace and live with the Queen Mother for a few months.

……

Early the next morning.

Jiang Ningwan went to Shouchun Palace.

The Queen Mother was very happy and pulled her to sit down. "I have been worried these past few days. Sixteen went to the north, and there is no one to take care of the Prince of Chu's mansion. I was afraid that something might happen to you."

"It would be great if you could come to the palace."

"Feng Chan, have someone clean up the side hall and give it to Ning Wan to stay in."

"Please ask Doctor Xu to come over and take Ning Wan's pulse."

Jiang Ningwan smiled and said, "I was worried that I would disturb the Queen Mother."

"How could that be? I'm so happy that I can't wait to have someone to talk to me from now on."

Upon learning that Jiang Ningwan had moved into Shouchun Palace, Concubine Rong also brought the little princess to have lunch.

Qin Wenli also came.

There was laughter in Shouchun Palace, a rare and lively occasion.

Jiang Ningwan also kept an eye on the news from the court.

Dayan has already learned of Xie Chenyuan's death and has decided to go to war.

When this news came, the entire court became nervous.

Jiang Ningwan only hoped that Shen Lanyi and Xie Chenyuan could arrive at the border quickly to stop the war.

A few days later, Jiang Ningwan also received a letter from Qin Shuangchi reporting that he was safe. Although the letter contained only a few words, she felt relieved knowing that he was safe.

After staying in the palace for a few days, Jiang Ning slept better at night.

Every day, he would have meals with the Queen Mother, enjoy the flowers, and take walks. It was a very leisurely and pleasant experience.

After lunch that day, the Queen Mother wanted to take a nap, so Jiang Ningwan went to the Imperial Garden alone.

Lan Xing from Shouchun Palace accompanied her.

When I was tired from walking, I found a place in the garden to sit for a while and enjoy the breeze.

Suddenly, the voice of a palace maid was heard. I turned around and saw two palace maids weeding on the gravel road among the flowers.

"Miss Zhou Er actually went to the North this week. How could a rich lady like her endure such a place?"

"She is deeply in love with the King of Chu. Even the Princess of Chu couldn't do that, even if she went all the way to the North to follow him."

Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan was slightly startled.

Miss Zhou Er? Are you talking about Zhou Tingxu?

"Miss Zhou Er was driven out of the Prince of Chu's palace before, and now she's chasing him to the north. The Prince of Chu will be moved by her persistence. Which rich lady can do this?"

"They fell in love during their time in the north. Maybe the next time they come back, Zhou Tingxu will be the Prince of Chu's concubine."

Another person said: "That's not necessarily true."

"I heard that the King of Chu has a personal maid in the north."

"It is said that many years ago, after the King of Chu was injured in the North, he never recovered. It was that girl who took care of him personally and helped him regain hope of living."

"Later, he followed the King of Chu back to Kyoto."

"Many old people in the palace have seen that girl."

Hearing this, another person asked in surprise: "Then why didn't this girl become the Princess of Chu?"

"That girl loves freedom by nature. She said she likes the vast world and doesn't like being trapped in one place. So she left quietly after the King of Chu's injuries stabilized."

"At that time, many people felt sorry for it. It was such a good opportunity, but it was missed."
