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

Luo Li frowned, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes.

He looked at Lu Qingheng with a deep gaze and asked, "You hate Jiang Ningwan. How much are you willing to pay to kill her?"

Lu Qingheng said firmly: "At any cost!"

Luo Li smiled with satisfaction, "In that case, you can start your plan."

"I'll send someone to find your brother and deliver a letter. Let's set a time and place, and have him use Jiang Ningwan as a bargaining chip."

Lu Qingheng was delighted, "To avoid any mistakes, the sooner the better!"

"Don't worry." Luo Li raised the corners of her lips slightly, then turned and left.

……

A ceasefire of several days.

Jiang Ningwan lay leisurely on the empty grain cart, basking in the sun. The sun, which was about to enter summer, was a bit scorching, making people feel drowsy.

I received a pigeon message from Qin Shuangchi yesterday, saying that everything went smoothly.

She felt very at ease.

But some are happy and some are sad.

Lu Lingsong's angry curses could be heard from the tent. "What a bunch of rubbish! You still haven't found out anything!"

"If anything happens to my sister, you will all be buried with her!"

Tens of thousands of people just stayed here with Lu Lingsong, not fighting, but helping Lu Lingsong to find information and look for his sister.

Lu Lingsong wants to determine where Lu Qingheng is being held and rescue him secretly.

But the other party did not give this opportunity.

In the evening, Lu Lingsong received a letter from Zechuan.

I don’t know the content of the letter, but Lu Lingsong calmed down after reading it.

That night, Jiang Ningwan was called to the tent.

"Come with me tonight to carry out the mission!" Lu Lingsong said as he put on his armor.

"What mission? How many people?" Jiang Ningwan asked.

Lu Lingsong said calmly, "You don't need to bring any of them. You'll know when you get there."

"It's right in Guanyu Creek."

Guanyu Creek is the border between Daning and Qian State, a waterside pavilion with beautiful scenery.

"Is this a mission against Qian Country? Without bringing anyone?" Jiang Ningwan was a little suspicious.

Lu Lingsong said in a dissatisfied tone: "What? Still want to disobey military orders?"

"Don't dare!"

As the two of them walked out of the tent, Qin Beihuang happened to overhear their conversation. "Should I go?"

"No need, you guard the camp."

Qin Beihuang couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. "Wasn't it Jiang Ningwan who stayed behind before?"

Lu Lingsong thought he was eager to make a contribution, so he patted him on the shoulder and said, "There are plenty of opportunities. This time, you guard the camp first."

"Jiang Ningwan, let's go!"

After Lu Lingsong finished speaking, he mounted his horse without giving Jiang Ningwan any time to prepare.

Jiang Ningwan hesitated for a moment, but still got on the horse and set off with the team.

Although she was not allowed to bring anyone, Lu Lingsong brought over a hundred people with him.

But none of them were her confidants.

As night gradually fell, the team rode their horses under the moonlight.

Late at night, we arrived at Guanyu Creek.

The waterside pavilion was brightly lit, and from afar one could see that there were no fewer people gathered there than they were.

Lu Lingsong dismounted, approached the stream, and shouted towards the other side, "I have brought the person with me. Please come and see him, my lord!"

Soon, several people walked out of the pavilion.

Behind the leading man and woman, the person being escorted was Lu Qingheng.

Lu Qingheng was tied directly to the wooden frame.

She shouted in panic: "Brother, save me..."

Lu Lingsong's heart tightened and he rushed forward eagerly, but was shot at the foot by an archer who was ambushing on the opposite bank.

Stopped him in his tracks.

The woman from the waterside pavilion came over with her hands behind her back, her voice deep and full of energy: "General Lu, what's the hurry?"

"I don't want to conflict with you. Send someone to bring Jiang Ningwan here, and I'll release your sister."

Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan looked at Lu Lingsong in shock, "So you brought me here alone to exchange me for your sister?"

Lu Lingsong's eyes turned cold and he signaled to the deputy general beside him.

The deputy general waved his hand.

Dozens of soldiers rushed forward from behind and held down Jiang Ningwan's arm.

Lu Lingsong shouted, "I've already brought the person here. I'll send Jiang Ningwan to you. Release Qingheng, and we'll make the deal!"

The woman on the other side chuckled: "I know Jiang Ningwan's skills. How can I dare to take her in if you don't tie her up?"

So Lu Lingsong signaled his deputy general to take action.

When the rope was used to tie Jiang Ningwan up, she began to struggle.

He knocked down several soldiers around him in one go.

But they were outnumbered and found it difficult to escape.

"stop!"

At this moment, a figure rushed out from the woods and stood in front of Jiang Ningwan.

"General Lu! You actually want to exchange Jiang Ningwan for your sister?" Qin Beihuang was shocked and angry.

Lu Lingsong frowned, very angry, and pointed at the figure on the other side, "Qin Beihuang, look, the one tied up over there is Qingheng! She's your former wife!"

"It's only been a short time, and your heart has become so cold and hard. Are you going to watch her die?"

As he spoke, Lu Lingsong angrily grabbed Qin Beihuang's collar.

Qin Beihuang angrily shook off his hand, "This is all Lu Qingheng's own fault!"

"She had nothing to do with this mission!"

"If it weren't for her..."

If she had not massacred the villagers in Qian Country, she would not have been hunted down by the Qian people, nor would she have fallen into the hands of the Qian people.

But when the words came to his lips, he gritted his teeth and swallowed them back.

If he told it out, Lu Lingsong would not give him and Jiang Ningwan a chance to live.

Lu Lingsong was furious and pointed at him angrily and said:

"Qin Beihuang, I'll give you one last chance! Capture Jiang Ningwan and bring her back in exchange for Qingheng, and that'll count as your first achievement!"

"Aren't you determined to get promoted? If you lose this opportunity, you'll never get it again!"

These words were also heard by people on the other side.

Luo Li frowned and looked at Jiang Ningwan opposite her.

His appearance is truly impeccable, he looks very heroic, his moves are decisive and neat, and he has an extraordinary temperament.

Lu Qingheng noticed Luo Li's reaction and pretended to sob as he said, "Beihuang! They say a husband and wife are bound by love for a hundred days. Are you really going to be so heartless to me?"

Qin Beihuang's expression was determined. He had already made a mistake once and would never make it a second time!

"I won't let you trade Jiang Ningwan for Lu Qingheng!"

"She is General Ling Wei, an official appointed by the Emperor himself. How can you use her for a bargain? Lu Lingsong, you are abusing your power for personal gain!"

Luo Li looked at the scene and chuckled, "What a good show."

Lu Lingsong was also furious, pointing at Qin Beihuang and Jiang Ningwan, "You adulterous couple!"

"Today, no one can stop me!"

Even if he has to kill everyone here, he will save Qingheng!

As soon as he finished speaking, a large number of soldiers surrounded Qin Beihuang and Jiang Ningwan.

The two men immediately fought back.

The battle was fierce.

The deputy general launched a surprise attack and captured Qin Beihuang first.

At this time, Lu Lingsong looked at Jiang Ningwan with a deep gaze and threatened: "General Jiang has always taken the overall situation into consideration. I believe he is willing to make this sacrifice."

"Do you want to watch Qin Beihuang die together?"

Jiang Ningwan glanced at Qin Beihuang and smiled coldly, "What does it have to do with me whether he lives or dies?"

"I will not die for your sister."

Those cold words were like a sharp knife piercing Qin Beihuang's heart.

Lu Lingsong smirked and mocked Qin Beihuang: "Did you see that? She doesn't care about your life or death at all, why are you pretending to be so affectionate?"

Qin Beihuang struggled angrily.

Lu Lingsong shouted sternly, "Catch him now!"

All the soldiers rushed towards Jiang Ningwan with their swords drawn.

Jiang Ningwan didn't dodge and whistled.
