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

There was no way he would let Jinlan marry such a person!

Zhou Jingxuan was shameless. He went straight to Ling Jinlan as soon as he entered the yard. "My wife, why didn't you tell me you were coming to Qushui Town? I thought you were going to run away from your marriage."

Ling Jinlan, wearing a veil, sat in the pavilion with a cold attitude: "The emperor said that there is no rush to get married. I will get married after I recover from my illness."

"Why are you so anxious? Aren't you afraid that I'll infect your whole family?"

Zhou Jingxuan looked at Ling Jinlan, and when he saw the red rash on the back of Ling Jinlan's hand, he was still suspicious.

"I'm not anxious. I'm just worried about you. I've been looking for you for a long time, worried that something might happen to you. I'm relieved to see that you're safe and sound."

As he spoke, he tried to pick up Ling Jinlan's hand, "Does the rash on your hand hurt? Have you applied medicine?"

Just when he was about to touch Ling Jinlan's hand, Ling Jinlan immediately dodged.

“It’s contagious!”

But Zhou Jingxuan's eyes were full of worry, "I'm not afraid."

"I'm just worried about whether you're feeling uncomfortable."

"If I could, I would rather take all this on for you!"

Zhou Jingxuan's affectionate look made Ling Jinlan feel nauseous and frowned.

"Mr. Zhou is so old, his health is not as good as that of a young man. If he gets sick, the servants won't know who to take care of him."

"We don't have many people here, Mr. Zhou, please stop causing trouble and return to Kyoto."

Ling Jinlan lowered his eyes and spoke softly.

Although he looked gentle, the words he spoke were sharp and piercing.

Zhou Jingxuan tightened his grip and forced a smile, "I'm in good health, my lady, don't worry!"

Ling Chaowen, who was standing by, could no longer bear it and stepped forward to drag Zhou Jingxuan away. "Alright, you've seen him, you can leave now."

"My sister needs to take medicine and rest after that, so I won't keep you for dinner."

"Please do it!"

Ling Chaowen pushed Zhou Jingxuan out, but Zhou Jingxuan took out the emperor's handwritten letter from his arms.

"The Emperor said that I can stay with my wife and take care of her until she recovers!"

At that moment, Ling Chaowen froze and looked at the contents of the imperial edict in disbelief.

how come……

Zhou Jingxuan smiled triumphantly and slowly put away the imperial edict. "Duke Ling can't disobey the order, right?"

"If you kick me out of here, you'll be disobeying the Emperor's orders."

Ling Chaowen gritted his teeth, suppressed his anger, and looked at Ling Jinlan.

Ling Jinlan also looked solemn and pinched his palms angrily.

"Brother, let him stay."

Ling Chaowen was so angry that he could only let go of Zhou Jingxuan.

Zhou Jingxuan straightened his clothes and walked towards Ling Jinlan arrogantly, "I'll take care of my wife and help her take her medicine!"

"From now on, I will personally take care of all matters concerning my wife, big or small! I will make sure that my wife recovers soon!"

Ling Jinlan kept calling her "wife" and there was a coldness in his eyes.

Zhou Jingxuan took the emperor's handwritten edict and forced his way into the house. He stayed by Ling Jinlan's side almost all the time, forcing Ling Jinlan to pretend to be sick.

Ling Jinlan could only use the excuse of resting to go back to her room and hide.

Ling Chaowen immediately asked someone to guard Ling Jinlan's door, while he went out to report the news. He couldn't let Zhou Jingxuan keep pestering them, so he had to find a way to get Jinlan away, but he needed help.

After returning to the room, Ling Jinlan's rash disappeared in a short while. Since she had taken too little poison, the effect could only last for a short while.

After drinking the medicine, he did feel a little sleepy. Seeing that there were guards guarding the door, Ling Jinlan went to sleep peacefully.

But when I was half asleep and half awake, a figure squatted beside the bed and came over to smell it.

The back of the hand was touched and the sleeve was lifted.

When he realized something was wrong, Ling Jinlan forced himself to wake up and suddenly opened his eyes.

When she saw Zhou Jingxuan beside the bed, her face changed drastically, "How did you get in?"

"Someone! Someone!"

However, there was silence outside the door.

Zhou Jingxuan smiled coldly, "They're all unconscious, no one can get in, Ling Chaowen is also out, no one can save you!"

As he spoke, Zhou Jingxuan tore off her veil. Ling Jinlan hurriedly protected the veil but was unable to stop him.

There was no rash on her face at all.

Zhou Jingxuan's eyes lit up and he sneered, "I knew you were pretending!"

Looking at that face that was so tender that it seemed like water could be squeezed out of it, Zhou Jingxuan had evil thoughts. Didn't she dislike his age? Then let her taste what it's like to be old.

His slightly cool fingers pinched Ling Jinlan's chin, and he looked at her with an evil look in his eyes, "Since you're not sick, we can get married!"

"The wedding night is now!"

As he said that, Zhou Jingxuan threw Ling Jinlan to the ground.

Ling Jinlan struggled, his face pale, "What are you doing! Let me go!"

"What are you talking about! The emperor has granted you marriage, and you are already Zhou Ling! Whatever your husband does to you is natural and right!"

"Even if you report it to the Emperor, you won't be right!"

If there was no imperial decree granting the marriage, he would not have the courage to do so, but with the imperial decree granting the marriage, could Ling Jinlan still escape?

Instead of letting her pretend to be sick and hide, it is better to clear her name first and let her accept her fate! She can only marry him, Zhou Jingxuan, in this life!

Ling Jinlan was extremely angry. She pushed him away with all her strength and slapped him hard.

The loud slap failed to stop Zhou Jingxuan, but instead aroused his anger.

I didn’t expect this damn girl to be so strong!

"You are feigning illness and committing the crime of deceiving the emperor! Not only you, but also your brother, your cousin, and your cousin are all accomplices! They will all be implicated!"

"Even if your entire clan isn't implicated, your Ling family might be exiled again!"

"If you don't obey me, I'll expose your fake illness!"

Hearing this, Ling Jinlan's whole body stiffened and his face turned pale.

Seeing that she didn't dare to move, Zhou Jingxuan smiled coldly, "You know what to do now!"

"Be good, I'll be gentle." Zhou Jingxuan leaned over and pressed on her.

He hurriedly undressed Ling Jinlan.

However, he did not notice the murderous intent spreading in Ling Jinlan's eyes.

She took out a dagger from under her pillow and stabbed Zhou Jingxuan in the neck.

Decisive and ruthless.

Insert the dagger as deep as possible.

She pushed Zhou Jingxuan aside in an instant, pulled the quilt over his neck to prevent the blood from splattering and staining her clothes.

Zhou Jingxuan opened his eyes wide, full of shock and fear. He opened his mouth but couldn't say a word. Only blood flowed out of his mouth.

At this moment, Ling Jinlan's eyes were cold, without any panic or anxiety about killing someone. He was indifferent, calm, and even disgusted.

"I didn't intend to kill you."

"You're courting death!"

He discovered that she was feigning illness and threatened to tell the emperor.

This is a crime of deceiving the emperor, and the consequences are unimaginable.

It would be better to kill him completely.

Anyway, this is not Kyoto, so it’s not that difficult to deal with the corpse.

Zhou Jingxuan died soon. Ling Jinlan calmly wrapped the body in a quilt, being very careful not to get blood everywhere.

At this moment, Jiang Ningwan had already arrived at the mansion, but strangely, she did not see the mansion guards and Ling Chaowen.

When I heard the noise and rushed to the inner courtyard, I saw several strange men dragging the guards in the courtyard to the corner.

Jiang Ningwan rushed forward immediately.

"Who are you!"
