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

It's full of boxes!

Jiang Ningwan opened a box.

The burst of golden light almost blinded her.

Golden gold.

She then opened the other boxes.

It's all gold!

The dazzling light almost covered the candlelight in the secret room, flashing so brightly that it was blinding.

This huge secret room is filled with gold. It is no exaggeration to say that it is a gold mountain.

"So much money is all the people's blood and sweat. The Fan family has been doing these evil businesses for a long time. I don't know how many people have been harmed."

This would take many years to save up.

Qin Beihuang looked at her in surprise, and saw only intense anger in her eyes. He felt ashamed of himself when he saw the room full of gold.

Faced with such a mountain of gold, how many people could be as free of greed as she was? Her first reaction was to think how many people had to be harmed to obtain so much gold.

She is so good, why haven't I seen her before?

Jiang Ningwan had already checked the secret room. Apart from the gold, she only saw a portrait of a woman hanging on the wall.

It doesn't look like a famous painting, but since it is hidden here with so much gold, it must be of great significance.

She took the painting down, looked at it, and said, "I'm taking this painting. I want to see who the woman in this painting is."

"Please register this gold and take it back to Kyoto."

"But I think we can use some of it to compensate the victims. What do you think?"

Qin Beihuang came back to his senses and nodded, "I'll listen to you."

"Don't listen to me. Qin Huaizhao is in charge of this case now. You guys go and discuss it." She didn't want to be misunderstood.

There was nothing else found in the secret room, so Jiang Ningwan returned to her room tiredly, intending to take a nap.

……

Early the next morning.

Qin Huaizhao has collected enough confessions and evidence and is ready to return to Beijing.

These prisoners and stolen goods also need to be escorted by Qin Beihuang, so they have to return to Beijing together.

Ling Jinlan came into the room and said, "Sister, they are going back to Beijing. Master Qin asked if we want to go with them?"

Jiang Ningwan was still studying the portrait in her hand and said nonchalantly, "Okay, then let's go back together. It will be safer on the road."

She was about to put the portrait away.

But when I rolled it up, I felt a strange sensation with my hand. There was something in the portrait!

"What's wrong, sister?" Ling Jinlan walked forward in confusion.

"Close the door."

Jiang Ningwan quickly unfolded the portrait on the table.

While checking a corner of the portrait, he slowly tore off the surface layer of the portrait.

There is a map below.

There was also a small key attached to it.

"Is this... a map?" Ling Jinlan hurried over, shocked.

Jiang Ningwan was also shocked. "It seems this is the meaning of hiding the portrait in the secret room."

"This terrain looks like it's near Qianyang City. I'll find a map of Qianyang City later to compare it."

"We won't go back with Master Qin and the others."

Ling Jinlan nodded, "Okay."

A large group of people have gathered outside Qingshanju, ready to set off.

Jiang Ningwan and Ling Jinlan came out.

"We won't be leaving with you. We've come all the way to Qianyang City and haven't even seen the scenery here yet. We can't make this trip in vain."

"You have a case to report back to Beijing, but we have nothing to do."

Upon hearing this, Qin Huaizhao and Qin Beihuang both looked worried.

"Aren't you going back together? What if there is danger?" Qin Huaizhao looked at Ling Jinlan worriedly.

Qin Beihuang also said: "Yes, the Fan family is deeply rooted in Qianyang City. If someone seeking revenge comes to you, wouldn't it be very dangerous?"

"How about I leave some troops to protect you."

Jiang Ningwan refused: "No need, the people from Prince Chu's Mansion are already on their way."

"You guys go back."

Qin Huaizhao was worried and glanced at Ling Jinlan reluctantly, "Then be careful."

"See you in Kyoto."

Ling Jinlan nodded, "See you in Kyoto."

After watching the team leave.

Jiang Ningwan immediately called Ling Chaowen and Yan Huixue.

"Let's not go to Qianyang City for now. Let's stay in Fenxin Tower for two days."

I also happen to know someone from Fenxin Tower.

Yan Huixue was delighted, "Okay!"

……

Burning Heart Tower.

It was snowing on the mountain, covering the entire Yundu Mountain with white snow.

Jiang Ningwan led Ling Weijun's fifty or so men up the mountain.

When they arrived at the courtyard in the mountains, Fenxin Tower was quiet. Everyone was hiding in the dark and on guard. They only came out one after another after seeing Yan Huixue.

"Sisters, this is General Jiang of the Lingwei Army..."

Yan Huixue gave an introduction.

It also explains the ins and outs of Cao Hui's death and Jiang Ning's purpose of going up the mountain at night.

Everyone became excited.

"Really? We can join the Lingwei Army?"

Jiang Ningwan nodded, "As long as you are willing, it's all fine!"

Looking at those lively people and smiling faces, and recalling how they were beheaded in their previous life, Jiang Ningwan was extremely grateful that she could save them this time.

Yan Huixue immediately led everyone to kneel down and said respectfully, "We sisters from Fenxin Tower are willing to swear allegiance to General Jiang until death!"

Jiang Ningwan helped Yan Huixue up and said, "Before we return to Ling Weijun, there is one more thing we need to do!"

Yan Huixue nodded, "Let's go in and talk."

"Caiyun, prepare some snacks and tea for everyone."

"okay!"

The house was not big, so everyone sat around in the yard to rest and made a bonfire.

Jiang Ningwan took out the map and placed it together with the map of Qianyang City.

"You guys stay near Qianyang City for a long time, see if you can find the place on this map."

Yan Huixue took a look and said, "Looking at the terrain, it should be nearby, but there are too many mountains, so it will take some time to find it."

Jiang Ningwan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm sure we can find it nearby!"

……

Before Qin Beihuang and Qin Huaizhao's team returned to Kyoto, the news of the incident at the Fan family in Qianyang City had already reached the Zhou family.

Zhou Lin rushed into the palace to discuss the matter.

"What's wrong with Qin Beihuang! The opportunity for him to make a contribution was to capture Fenxinlou, so why did he capture the Fan family!" The queen slammed the table in anger.

Qin Chengqian looked solemn, "I guess something must have happened."

"The person who found out about the Fan family was also the Junior Official of the Dali Temple, Qin Huaizhao!"

Zhou Lin consoled him in a heavy tone, "Fortunately, the one who interacted with the Fan family was Jingxuan. Now that he's dead, the investigation won't lead to you."

"As for me, there is no evidence, so the most I can be accused of is lax discipline."

When Zhou Jingxuan was mentioned, Zhou Lin could not hide the sadness between his brows.

The Queen was still upset. "If we cut off the connection with the Fan family, we will suffer a huge loss!"

Qin Chengqian suddenly said in surprise: "I remember that the Fan family saved a lot of money and hid it in the tomb. This money should not have been discovered by Qin Huaizhao and others yet."

The Queen quickly said, "Send someone to find it!"

"I'll send someone to Qianyang City right away!"

……

A few days later.

Jiang Ningwan and others came to a cemetery.

This is the last place that resembles the one on the map.

"Could the Fan family have something hidden in the cemetery? Have we found the wrong place?" Ling Chaowen was a little skeptical.

Yan Huixue said: "The Fan family's ancestral tomb is also on this mountain!"

"Maybe it's hidden in their ancestral tomb?"

Jiang Ningwan put away the map and walked up the mountain. "Just dig it up and you'll find out!"
