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

The group went up the mountain and came to the ancestral tomb of the Fan family.

After searching around, we found that the largest tomb was a cenotaph with the name of the ancestor of the Fan family on the tombstone. However, the tomb was relatively new and did not look like it had been exposed to wind and sun for decades.

After a few people moved the tombstone away, they found a stone door.

There is a small hole on the stone gate.

Jiang Ningwan was startled and immediately took out the key from her arms and inserted it. With a click, the stone door slowly opened.

It's pitch black inside and you need to bend down to enter, but the space inside is very large.

A large secret room was dug under the cenotaph.

They lit a fire, illuminating the surroundings, which were filled with gold, silver and treasures.

Everyone came in one after another, and when they saw this scene, they were so shocked that they were speechless.

"Don't just stand there, move it out!" Jiang Ningwan reminded everyone and brought them back to their senses.

Everyone immediately put in all their efforts to move the boxes out.

Everything was emptied out in half an hour, and the cenotaph was restored to its original state.

The gold, silver and jewelry were first moved to the foot of Yundu Mountain and hidden in a cave.

Such a large sum of money, at least hundreds of thousands of taels, is a problem as to how to deal with it.

If you keep it secretly and it is discovered, you will be guilty of a capital crime.

But the Fan family is making money for the Zhou family, and the Queen and the Crown Prince must be involved. If we just hand it over like this, won’t they just enjoy it?

She is not reconciled.

After careful consideration, Jiang Ningwan slowly spoke, "Let's transport this batch of treasures to Qushui Town first. Once the Fan family case is concluded, we'll decide whether to hand it over."

She wanted to see whether the Queen and the Zhou family would be punished.

After saying that, she looked at everyone in the yard.

"Everyone present here is the elite selected from the Lingwei Army, as well as the new recruits who will soon join the Lingwei Army. They are all people I trust, and they are the ones I can back up when facing the enemy."

"After this battle, from now on we will share honor and disgrace."

"If this matter is leaked, everyone will die."

"But as long as you have no second thoughts, I will never treat you unfairly!"

People with hands are on the road.

"I swear to be loyal to General Jiang until death! I will never have second thoughts!"

Except for Fenxinlou, everyone else has been screened by her through layers of screening to ensure that there is no external influence and there is no possibility of betrayal.

As for the people in Fenxin Tower, most of them have miserable backgrounds, are without parents, harbor hatred but also uphold justice, are stained with blood but never kill innocent people.

She believed they were on the same path.

Nor do I worry about betrayal.

Jiang Ningwan raised the corners of her lips slightly, "Everyone, get up and rest. We'll set off early tomorrow morning!"

"Yes!"

……

It started snowing heavily again in the early morning.

The team disguised themselves as a caravan and set off for Qushui Town.

Everyone rode their horses slowly forward in the heavy snow. Jiang Ningwan, Ling Jinlan and Ling Chaowen sat in the carriage, looking at the scenery along the way, feeling refreshed.

Ling Jinlan was holding a hand warmer in her hands, lost in thought, not knowing what she was thinking about.

"Jinlan, are you reminded of someone by the things he saw?" Jiang Ningwan couldn't help but tease.

Ling Chaowen told her everything that happened along the way these days, which made her even more convinced that there was something wrong with Ling Jinlan and Qin Huaizhao.

Ling Jinlan came back to his senses and put down the hand warmer embarrassedly, "I don't have it."

Jiang Ningwan put the hand warmer back into her hands. "If you don't have it, then don't have it. Why freeze yourself?"

After a moment of silence, Jiang Ningwan continued, "It doesn't matter if there is one. I think Qin Huaizhao is also interested in you. You two are such a good match. If you like him too, it wouldn't be a bad idea to have a happy marriage."

"This Qin Huaizhao is the crown prince of Prince Rong. Prince Rong has lived in his fiefdom for a long time and has never left the country. He has no background in Kyoto, but he became the Junior Secretary of the Dali Temple on his own merits. He is young and promising, and he is also upright, so he is a good match."

In her previous life, she had no contact with Qin Huaizhao. She only remembered that Qin Huaizhao came to visit her when she was sick on the bed.

At that time, he was already the Minister of Dali Temple and was not young anymore, but he had never married.

Logically speaking, they had never had any contact with each other and had no friendship, so Qin Huaizhao's visit was a little unexpected for her.

What's more, she didn't have a good reputation in Kyoto at that time. After she fell ill, no one came to visit her except Qin Wenli and Jiang Zhouye.

It can be seen that Qin Huaizhao is a good person.

After hearing this, Ling Jinlan's brows flashed with worry, "Are they a good match?"

Hearing her low tone, Jiang Ningwan was slightly startled.

He grabbed her hand and asked, "How can a talented man and a beautiful woman not be a good match?"

"You're not inferior in terms of family background."

Ling Jinlan gave a wry smile, "A young and promising Shaoqing of the Dali Temple should be married to a noble lady from a high-class family."

"He's interested in me now, and what he likes is pure, kind, gentle and virtuous ladies from wealthy families."

"But I'm not."

Her hands were stained with blood and she had killed countless people.

Jiang Ningwan heard her concerns and held her hand tightly. "No matter what you choose, I support you."

“But life is short, don’t leave any regrets.”

Ling Jinlan was stunned for a moment, nodded, and leaned on her shoulder.

On the second day after they left Qianyang, a group of people arrived at the Fan family's ancestral tomb and dug extensively, but found nothing.

……

The treasures brought back from Qianyang were temporarily hidden in Qianqiu Trading Company. Qushui Town was all about Qianqiu Trading Company’s business, and with so many people, they could keep an eye on what was going on in Qushui Town and ensure that these treasures would not be lost.

Afterwards, Ling Jinlan and his sister returned to Beijing first, while Jiang Ningwan took Yan Huixue and others to the military camp to familiarize themselves with the place.

At this point, Jiang Ningwan established the first batch of personal guards.

There are about a hundred people in total.

More than half of them are women.

Although they are women, they are all fierce and ruthless, and are good at using poison and hidden weapons.

After watching them compete in the army, I found that many soldiers were no match for them.

He can be said to be a first-class killer.

After settling them down, Jiang Ningwan returned to Kyoto the next day.

I originally wanted to go back to the Prince of Chu's Mansion to rest and see if there was any letter from the north recently.

But before reaching the Prince of Chu's Palace, he saw a carriage waiting outside the palace.

Hearing the sound of horse hooves, the people in the carriage lifted the curtain.

It’s Jiang Bingde.

"Ning Wan, you're finally back."

Jiang Ningwan didn't have the energy to deal with him at the moment. "I need to rest today. Let's talk about it tomorrow."

Jiang Bingde quickly called her, "It's not me who's looking for you, it's the Emperor who wants to see you."

Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan was slightly stunned.

The emperor didn't let her attend court before, but now he suddenly wants to see her again?

With doubts, Jiang Ning got on the carriage at night.

"In the Qianyang City case, Lord Qin said you helped, and the Emperor also credited you with a merit. The reward was sent to the Prince of Chu's Mansion yesterday."

Jiang Bingde's tone rose, revealing a hint of pride.

He never thought that his daughter could achieve such success and make such great contributions.

Jiang Ningwan's heart was calm.

"Has the Qianyang City case been closed?"

Jiang Bingde said: "The case has not been completely closed yet. The Dali Temple is conducting a thorough investigation."

"Everyone related to the Fan family must be investigated."

Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan was a little disappointed, "Then why do you still want to see me?"

Jiang Bingde's face froze slightly, and he seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"Speak directly!"

"Dayan's marriage is finalized."
