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

Jiang Ningwan fell into the water and was rescued, soaking wet.

"General, are you okay?" Xiao Fuxue asked with concern.

Jiang Ningwan shook her head, watching as Lu Lingsong's men went after Luo Li and the others, and ordered, "Follow behind, don't rush forward."

She would not let Ling Weijun charge into battle for Lu Lingsong.

Everyone followed immediately.

Jiang Ningwan had no reason to retreat, so she followed.

Suddenly, Qin Beihuang ran to her side and handed her a coat. "It's cold at night, be careful not to catch a cold."

Jiang Ningwan said calmly, "No need."

Everyone followed Lu Lingsong to attack Zechuan, and when they reached the border, they started a war with the Qian Kingdom army.

This was an unprepared battle, fought entirely to save Lu Qingheng.

As a result, a group of pioneers led by Lu Lingsong fell into the enemy's ambush. There were a large number of traps on the ground, and countless people were killed and injured.

Even Lu Lingsong was almost trapped inside.

The battle continued until daybreak. Lu Lingsong, looking at the large number of casualties, finally gave the order: "Retreat!"

When we returned to the camp, we were suddenly filled with wounded soldiers.

Morale is low.

In the tent, Lu Lingsong got angry.

Jiang Ningwan had just changed her clothes and walked outside the tent when she heard a quarrel inside.

"Lu Lingsong, calm down. Even if you want to save Lu Qingheng, this isn't the way to do it! The enemy has obviously figured out that Lu Qingheng is your weak spot, and they've set a trap, waiting for you to fall into it."

Lu Lingsong shouted angrily, "Qin Beihuang, are you going to disobey military orders?"

Qin Beihuang said firmly, "I won't let you hurt Jiang Ningwan this time!"

"Although you are the commander of an army, the Lingwei Army and the Xuanwei Army simultaneously disobeyed your orders. Let's see how you fight this battle!"

"In short, I don't agree to trade Jiang Ningwan for Lu Qingheng!"

Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan was slightly stunned. Lu Lingsong actually wanted to exchange her for Lu Qingheng?

The other deputy generals also followed suit and advised: "Yes, General Lu, you should think twice about this matter."

"If Jiang Ningwan is used as General Lingwei in exchange, it would be disheartening to the soldiers and detrimental to their morale. Moreover, if something were to happen to General Jiang, it would be a huge loss to us."

With everyone opposing him, Lu Lingsong almost went crazy.

Thinking of Lu Qingheng's broken arm last night, he became anxious and unable to calm down.

At this time, Jiang Ningwan walked into the tent.

"Even if they use me in exchange, do you think they will really let Lu Qingheng go?"

Lu Lingsong said angrily: "Then what do you say we should do!"

Jiang Ningwan said calmly, "Of course we're discussing other rescue strategies."

Lu Lingsong suppressed his anger and sat back in his chair, "Okay, you two should come up with a solution right away!"

Just as Jiang Ning was about to sit down before dinner, Lu Lingsong pointed at her and shouted coldly, "You! Get out!"

"You don't have to attend all the subsequent council meetings!"

He didn't trust Jiang Ningwan.

If they really came up with a rescue plan, they were afraid that Jiang Ningwan would leak it to the enemy and kill Qingheng.

Jiang Ningwan froze.

"Row."

She walked away with ease.

She felt relieved if she was not allowed to participate. After all, she would not sincerely come up with ideas to rescue Lu Qingheng.

This trip seemed particularly leisurely.

After discussing for a long time, Lu Lingsong and his team came up with a plan, but they did not let Jiang Ningwan participate in the whole process.

Jiang Ningwan could only ask people to find out some information every day to learn about the progress of the rescue.

"General Lu launched a strong attack today. As soon as he got through, the enemy would hang Lu Qingheng out and threaten to chop off Lu Qingheng's head if he got any closer. This forced General Lu to retreat."

"I heard that General Qin tried many times to sneak into Zechuan to rescue people, but failed every time."

"There's been another quarrel in the main camp. I heard General Lu has been so angry these past few days that he's almost lost his temper. The doctor prescribed him a lot of medicine to calm his liver fire."

At the dinner table, Xiao Fuxue spoke with great interest.

Yan Huixue replied: "Fortunately, it has nothing to do with us."

"Otherwise, when the time comes, I'll be blamed for not doing the work seriously."

……

Zechuan.

In the heavily guarded room, Lu Qingheng's hands and feet were chained to the bed.

Song Zhaonan brought the medicine and sat beside the bed to feed her personally.

Lu Qingheng's face turned pale and he turned his face away.

"Why? My father saved your life, and this is how you treat me?"

She was unwilling to accept it and couldn't believe that her arm was cut off like this.

Obviously the plan went smoothly.

Why did Song Zhaonan betray her?

Song Zhaonan said nonchalantly: "If I save your life now, I will be repaying your father's kindness."

"Although I value friendship, I am a person who clearly distinguishes between public and private affairs."

"How could you be so sure that I would betray the Qian Kingdom and cooperate with your brother to open this line of defense and let your brother flatten the land and people behind me?"

Lu Qingheng's eyes turned red, he struggled and said angrily: "I said this is to help your father ascend to the throne!"

Song Zhaonan smiled contemptuously, "Even if my father really wants to fight for the throne, that's when there are no external enemies."

"If we open this defense line and allow the Daning army to march straight in, the Qian Kingdom will be destroyed. Then what's the point of fighting for the throne?"

"I can still tell what's important and what's not."

Song Zhaonan sighed as he spoke: "Actually, I didn't intend to hurt you. If you hadn't used Jiang Ningwan's matter to deceive Luo Li, I could have spoken for you and let you go back."

"You messed with her, and there's nothing I can do."

"All I can do now is keep you from dying."

"After all, you massacred several villages in Qian Country, killing and injuring hundreds of people. Luo Li originally planned to have you executed by slicing in front of your brother."

"Now that I've only broken one of your arms, I've repaid your father for saving my life."

"We will have no relationship from now on."

At that moment, Lu Qingheng shed tears of despair.

Unwilling to accept the loss, he angrily said, "I didn't lie to her about Jiang Ningwan!"

"Call her over, I want to see her!"

Song Zhaonan fed her medicine and said, "You should drink the medicine first."

Lu Qingheng struggled and knocked over the medicine bowl, tears streaming down his face as he roared, "I want to see Luo Li!"

Song Zhaonan sighed helplessly, got up and left.

Soon, Luo Li came into the room.

He stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes cold.

"Song Zhaonan begged me for mercy for a long time before I decided to spare your life. It seems that you don't value the chance to live that he begged for you."

Lu Qingheng was unwilling to accept it and angrily asked, "Why? Why do you treat me like this?"

"Even if I die, let me die knowingly!"

"Don't you like the King of Chu? Jiang Ningwan is your love rival. What's wrong with my advice? Why do you treat me like this?"

Luo Li sneered, "Your idea is good, but didn't you also say that you're willing to pay any price to kill Jiang Ningwan?"

"I want to kill Jiang Ningwan, but that won't stop me from cutting off your arm."

"You don't think that just because we had a drink together, I trust you completely and treat you as one of my own, do you?"

As she spoke, she leaned forward slightly, her eyes becoming fierce and cold.

"Besides, I hate it most when others deceive and take advantage of me."

"You've said nothing good about Jiang Ningwan, but with some people, you can tell what kind of person she is just by meeting her once."
