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

General's Mansion, Moyun Pavilion.

Lu Qingheng lay on the bed recuperating from his injuries, unable to move, his tears already soaking the pillow.

Princess Yi's anxious voice came from outside: "It's bad, it's bad!"

"Qingheng, our Xuanwei General's Mansion was burned down last night!"

Lu Qingheng was shocked. He tried to stand up but gasped in pain. "How could it be burned down by a fire? It's already halfway through the renovation."

Princess Yi was heartbroken. "The authorities investigated and said that the night wind blew away sparks from fireworks, which happened to ignite the haystack! No one noticed, and as a result, the house burned down and three courtyards collapsed!"

Speaking of this, Princess Yi's heart was bleeding.

She had been looking forward to moving into the general's mansion, which had been renovated with great difficulty, day and night, but now, everything is gone!

The house was severely damaged and is completely uninhabitable. Now it needs to be rebuilt instead of renovated.

Lu Qingheng punched the bed in anger.

It was really a case of "misfortunes never coming singly" and God was against her!

"Qingheng, take a look. Let's quickly have it rebuilt so we can move in before the end of the year."

Hearing this, Lu Qingheng's face changed slightly. This must be the purpose of Princess Yi's visit.

"Mother, you see, I have lost my official position and my second brother has been fined. I can't pay the money."

"Unless I can be reinstated, I might be able to get some salary."

These words made Princess Yi's face darken. "Speaking of this, you are truly absurd. You actually got some Sanguisorba officinalis and put it under Jiang Ningwan's bed. Isn't this bound to be discovered sooner or later?"

"This matter has spread throughout Kyoto. The Emperor has dismissed you from your position. How could he possibly reinstate you?"

Lu Qingheng's eyes flashed with impatience, and he said, "My father and brother died fighting for the country. The emperor won't be so cruel. As long as Jiang Ningwan comes forward to beg the emperor, the matter will be resolved."

"Mother, this matter still depends on you." Lu Qingheng took out a letter from under the pillow and handed it to Princess Yi.

Ying'er accepted the thick envelope, knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "Thank you, Madam. Your kindness is so great that I will never forget it!"

"Take this money and take your sister to do some small business to make a living. If Lu Qingheng holds a grudge, you will be in trouble. Stay away and don't come back to Kyoto." Jiang Ningwan warned.

"Yes! I've made note of it!"

After seeing Ying'er off, Jiang Ningwan set off to return to the general's mansion.

"Miss, General Lu... Oh no, Lu Qingheng holds a grudge. Since she was demoted, she must be holding a grudge against you. If she returns to the general's mansion now, will she..." Li Chun was a little worried.

Jiang Ningwan smiled faintly, "Look, you've changed your address. Now she should keep her tail between her legs and behave herself. How dare she bring shame upon herself?"

The Lu family suffered such a big loss this time, I'm afraid there are already many pairs of eyes secretly watching her.

Lu Qingheng was too embarrassed to show up, but there was always someone standing up for her.

As soon as she returned to Zhenyue Pavilion, Nanny Xu reported what was happening in the mansion, and Jinhuaju sent someone to invite her.

As expected, Princess Yi's attitude was out of character and friendly. "Ningwan, you didn't come home last night. Did you stay at the Marquis Wu's mansion?"

"Climb up the Magpie Tower with Miss Pei."

Jiang Ningwan did not hide it.

Last night she and Pei Xunzhi drank all night.

"Don't think too much. I don't mean to blame you. I just have something to give you." Princess Yi took out a letter from her sleeve.

Jiang Ningwan's heart tightened.

She took the letter, opened it and took a look. Her heart trembled. It was a letter from home, written in her mother's handwriting.

Seeing that familiar handwriting, my heart ached again.

He used a fake letter from home to deceive her again.

Jiang Ningwan clutched the letter tightly, suppressing her anger.

"This was obtained by Qingheng through someone. You know, your mother and grandfather were exiled to the North, and it was difficult to send letters there. Fortunately, Qingheng has connections in the army, and the team transporting supplies to the North can help bring some things along."

"Winter is getting very cold, and the north is probably even colder and more unbearable. I've asked Qingheng to send some thick quilts and winter clothes to your grandfather. That should make their lives a little better."

Jiang Ningwan smiled and pretended to be happy, "Thank you, mother and sister Qingheng."

"Do me such a big favor, I wonder how I can help my mother?"

Upon hearing this, Princess Yi secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Qingheng knows she was wrong about the blood-destroying grass. Can you go to the emperor and plead for her reinstatement?"

"You are the one who suffered in this matter. If you forgive Qingheng, the emperor will naturally not punish her too harshly. One hundred strokes of the cane almost took her life, but it can be considered as a way to relieve your anger."

Jiang Ningwan was not surprised when she heard this, but sneered in her heart.

How can I feel relieved if I didn't kill Lu Qingheng?

The night before the concubine entered the house, she received the first letter from home. This was the second letter, and there would be a letter from home every month from now on.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, every letter home comes with some conditions, and that is the flaw.

But caring is chaos.

When she thought about her family suffering, she couldn't care about anything else.

After a long silence, Jiang Ningwan raised her head and said, "Okay."

Princess Yi was overjoyed, "You agreed?"

"Then I'll thank you on Qingheng's behalf first. When she recovers from her injury, she will definitely go and thank you in person."

It turns out that only letters from home can control her.

After Qingheng finishes this matter, we can find a reason to ask her to pay for the renovation of General Xuanwei's Mansion.

Princess Yi's mood suddenly improved a lot.

Jiang Ningwan knew it all, so she stood up and said goodbye, letting Princess Yi be happy for a few more days.

After going back to change clothes, Jiang Ningwan entered the palace.

The Sanguisorba officinalis incident has caused a lot of uproar. After suffering this disaster, it wouldn't be unreasonable for her to ask the emperor for an imperial decree to divorce her husband, right?

On the way to the imperial study, Jiang Ningwan saw a bright yellow figure coming towards her from afar. Her eyebrows jumped. It was Jinkui, the maid beside the queen.

Trouble is coming.

Jiang Ningwan thought for a moment and immediately turned around and headed towards the Imperial Hospital.

I found Doctor Xu at the Imperial Hospital and spoke to him privately: "Will Doctor Xu take Concubine Rong's pulse today? Could you please pass on a message for me?"

"Just say that I have a solution to the flood in the south."

Doctor Xu was shocked when he heard this. What did this mean? Why did a woman like her have anything to do with the flood in the south?

Until the next moment, the mallow appeared.

"The Crown Prince's Consort is so easy to find. She actually came to the Imperial Hospital. The Empress invites you to come over."

"What does the Queen want to see me about?" Jiang Ningwan was surprised.

"You'll know when you go there." Jinkui gave a fake smile.

Jiang Ningwan looked at Doctor Xu for help, and Doctor Xu immediately understood.

Fengqi Palace.

Jiang Ningwan had just reached the palace gate when Jinkui stopped her. "The Queen said that before meeting the imperial carriage, the Crown Prince's Consort must kneel here for two hours."

"Reflect on your mistakes and write them down." Jinkui made a gesture of invitation.

The palace maids carried a low table to the side and prepared writing brushes and ink.

Jiang Ningwan knew that the Queen had invited her for no good reason, but she didn't want to see her at all, so she punished her by making her kneel for two hours.

It was simply because the Ling family was not around that they dared to bully her, an orphan.

Jiang Ningwan looked into the hall and asked in a resounding voice, "What have I done wrong? Please enlighten me, Your Majesty!"
