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

Shen Lianyi, dressed in gorgeous clothes, looked up and ordered the guards: "Stand back, she is my friend."

The guards immediately left the tent.

Jiang Ningwan walked forward quickly and looked at Shen Lanyi, who was dressed luxuriously, and felt a little uncomfortable.

"Xie Lianyi, it's you."

Shen Lianyi raised the corners of his lips and poured her a cup of tea. "I prefer the name Shen Lianyi."

"sit down."

"I didn't expect the Emperor of Daning would send you to pick me up. Why didn't the Third Prince come in person?"

Jiang Ningwan replied, "The snow is too heavy. For safety reasons, he will come out of the city to pick you up. I will escort you for the rest of the journey."

Shen Lianyi smiled and said, "Actually, it doesn't matter who picks me up."

Jiang Ningwan looked at her seriously with a serious expression, "I want to ask you something."

"The King of Chu really..."

Shen Lianyi looked calm as he slowly took out a brocade box and placed it in front of her.

"He told me to give you this."

Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan's eyes lit up, "He asked you to give it to me. He's still alive, right?"

Shen Lianyi shook his head and said, "He gave this to me before he disappeared."

"As for whether he is dead or alive now, I am not sure."

Jiang Ningwan's heart sank, and she nervously opened the brocade box.

When she saw the sachet inside, her heart was shocked.

There were crooked patterns embroidered on the pink sachets. These were the sachets she made for everyone when the epidemic came.

But at that time she had no friendship with the King of Chu, and she did not give him a sachet.

How could he have it?

Looking at the lanyard of the sachet, some fragments of memories came to my mind.

Qin Beihuang fished for the sachet in the lake in the palace, but couldn't find it.

In Qin Shuangchi's study, she saw a small piece of the sachet string sticking out from between the pages of a book...

Could it be that the sachet thrown away by Qin Beihuang is this?

After figuring out the origin of the sachet, Jiang Ningwan couldn't help but tear up. Why didn't he explain it to her in person...

She clutched the sachet tightly and looked at Shen Lianyi, "Did he say anything else?"

Shen Lianyi shook her head. "She didn't say anything. She just told me to bring this to you."

Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan's heart tightened.

He quickly asked, "Then why did he disappear? Is it related to Mo Xuzi?"

Shen Lianyi nodded, "My father kept him in Da Yan for so long because he wanted him to marry, but he said he already had a family and didn't want to marry."

"After a long stalemate, and with my father refusing to back down, he quietly left the capital."

"Give this to me before you leave."

"The next time news reached him, he was attacked in a border town. General Hu, who rushed to rescue him, was killed. Many people died, but the King of Chu's body was never found."

"The coroner found that all the deceased were poisoned. General Hu also had a poisonous palm on his body, which was left by Mo Xuzi."

After hearing this, Jiang Ningwan felt extremely uneasy.

If so many people died, would Qin Shuangchi be able to escape...

"I heard you fished his clothes out of the river?"

Shen Lianyi nodded, "Yes."

"There are also broken limbs, but we can't confirm they are his because they are so badly broken that we can't piece together a complete body."

Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan's heart tightened and she felt a tightness in her chest.

I can only hope that those body parts are not his.

She didn't even dare to think that those body parts were related to him. When she had such a thought, her heart felt like a piece was dug out.

"Has Mo Xuzi been caught?"

Shen Lianyi shook his head. "A wanted order has been issued, but Mo Xuzi is very good at disguise and is difficult to catch."

Jiang Ningwan clenched her fists. "This happened in Dayan, and Dayan didn't give an explanation?"

Xie Chenyuan almost died in Daning, and war almost broke out between the two countries.

Their King of Chu went to Dayan and disappeared, but everything remained calm. They even just changed the marriage candidate to the third prince, and the two countries are about to form an alliance.

Who cares about the disappearance of the King of Chu?

Shen Lianyi was silent for a while, then slowly spoke: "If the King of Chu's death is truly confirmed, Da Yan will cede land as compensation."

Jiang Ningwan scoffed lightly: "Cede land as compensation?"

Shen Lanyi looked serious. Although she felt uncomfortable seeing the pain in Jiang Ningwan's eyes, she also felt uncomfortable.

But at this moment, her position was that of Princess Dayan, not Jiang Ningwan's friend.

"You look down on this little compensation because the King of Chu is more important to you than compensation."

"But this is not the case for the Emperor of Daning."

"The King of Chu's life or death is currently unknown, and he is very likely already dead. If Daning wanted to investigate, your Emperor would have already done so."

"How could I quietly prepare for a marriage? And I asked you to come pick me up."

"The reason I asked you to come pick me up is that even if the King of Chu is truly dead, it will not affect the marriage between the two countries."

Although Jiang Ningwan was unwilling to admit it, the facts were just as Shen Lanyi said.

What brothers? How can they be more important than the country?

At this moment, footsteps were heard from the takeaway, and Lu Lingsong came to the outside of the tent. "Is the princess okay? I heard that General Jiang came. Did she give the princess any trouble?"

I heard from the subordinates that Jiang Ningwan came in a rage and went straight to the princess's tent.

He could also guess that it was because of the death of King Chu.

That's why I took a while to arrive. It would be great if Jiang Ningwan hurt the princess in anger.

"I'm fine. General Jiang and I hit it off right away. She'll just accompany me on the journey. General Lu, you can withdraw all your men." Shen Lianyi said casually.

Lu Lingsong was shocked. They? Hit it off right away?

Shouldn't he be a love rival?

Princess Dayan almost married the King of Chu.

If it weren't for the marriage alliance with the King of Chu, the King of Chu wouldn't have died tragically at the hands of Mo Xuzi.

Jiang Ningwan actually doesn't hate her?

"Okay." With confusion and disappointment, Lu Lingsong turned and left.

The heavy snow had not stopped yet, making it difficult for the team to move forward, so Jiang Ningwan had no choice but to stay here first and wait until the snow stopped before continuing their journey.

Jiang Ningwan's tent was right next to Shen Lanyi's. After settling in, Jiang Ningwan sat alone on a chair, staring at the sachet in her hand in a daze.

Chen Yuzhu came in with charcoal fire, "General, lunch is ready."

"I don't want to eat, you guys eat it."

Chen Yuzhu nodded, turned around and left the tent.

Outside the tent, heavy snow was falling, the sky was covered with white snow, and inside the tent, the charcoal fire was burning, the warmth was gradually rising, but she felt extremely cold.

Looking at the sachet in her hand, Jiang Ningwan was lost in thought for a long time.

I couldn't help but open the sachet, not knowing whether it still contained the original medicinal ingredients.

There was a small medicine bag inside, Jiang Ningwan picked it up and smelled it.

The medicinal herbs are still the same, but after such a long time, the medicinal smell should not be so strong. Could it be that they have been replaced with new ones?

She opened it curiously and took a look.

But suddenly I found something inside!

He actually took out a note from the medicine bag!

This is Qin Shuangchi's handwriting!

Looking at those words, Jiang Ningwan's eyes suddenly turned red and she cried with joy.

I saw it said——

"We'll meet again when spring comes."

Tears blurred her vision in an instant. She clutched the note tightly against her chest, and the heavy stone in her heart finally fell to the ground.

He must still be alive!
