"I can't come to the capital for a while, so let Luo Li find a way to test whether the King of Chu is sincere towards you."

"She also told me the detailed plan, and I agreed."

"I never thought it would lead to such a disastrous result."

"The fault is mine!"

"I will first ask a doctor to come and see the King of Chu to see if there is any way to cure him."

As he spoke, Luo Zhongjin told Luo Li, "Go get the doctor quickly."

Luo Li knew that her adoptive father was protecting her, and she felt even more guilty. She quickly got up and went to ask for the most famous doctor in Zechuan.

After figuring out the whole story, Jiang Ningwan and Qin Shuangchi looked at each other.

Qin Shuangchi held her hand and signaled with his eyes that it was almost time.

Jiang Ningwan called out to Luo Li who was running out.

"No need to go."

"The prince's leg is fine."

When these words were spoken, the two were shocked.

Luo Zhongjin's expression was solemn. "Xiao Ning'er, you don't have to comfort me. I made a mistake, and now it's important to find a way to make amends."

Jiang Ningwan patted Qin Shuangchi's shoulder and said, "Get up and walk around twice."

Qin Shuangchi stood up and walked around the hall twice.

Seeing that his leg was safe and sound, Luo Li breathed a sigh of relief.

Luo Zhongjin also felt relieved, "So everything is fine? I'm glad you're fine!"

If the King of Chu really becomes disabled, I won't be able to face Xiao Ning'er in the future.

Luo Li glanced at the two of them helplessly, "I was so scared, I thought there was something wrong with the medicine I gave them."

Jiang Ningwan said coldly, "You lied to us once, and I lied to you once. We're even."

Fortunately, it wasn't real poison.

Otherwise she would never let Luo Li go.

Luo Zhongjin smiled and said, "Luo Li, go prepare the wine and food."

Soon the food and wine were prepared, and there was also someone Jiang Ningwan had met at the dinner table, Song Zhaonan.

"This is Song Zhaonan, the prince of Zongwang, and he is also the capable person who supports the Ninth Prince!"

After Luo Zhongjin introduced them, Song Zhaonan raised his glass towards Jiang Ningwan and said, "We've met before."

"It was only after seeing General Jiang's majesty that I truly realized that Lu Qingheng was talking nonsense."

"This is a story of friendship, I offer a toast to General Jiang!"

Jiang Ningwan smiled back, raised his head and drank the wine in the glass.

"You mean Lu Qingheng? What nonsense is she talking about?"

Song Zhaonan then explained everything from the initial capture of Lu Qingheng to what happened afterwards.

Jiang Ningwan was a little surprised after hearing this.

In order to kill her, Lu Qingheng was so crazy that he actually sought cooperation with the Qian Kingdom’s army.

After a meal.

Luo Zhongjin took out a brocade box and handed it to her.

"When the Ninth Prince ascended the throne, I immediately requested these shops. They are all in the best locations in the capital. Here are the deeds."

Jiang Ningwan's eyes lit up. She took the deeds and looked at them. There were more than thirty of them. So many shops must be worth a lot of money.

"Thank you, Uncle Luo!"

"Why are you being so polite to me? I don't know when we'll meet again. You and the King of Chu must be well in Daning State."

After a brief reunion, it was time to say goodbye again, and Luo Zhongjin felt a little reluctant.

They sat and drank tea for a while. It was getting late, and Jiang Ningwan was about to set off.

As the team was setting off, Luo Li suddenly had someone carry a sack over. "I said I would give you a meeting gift, but the plan got delayed."

"I don't know if you like this gift."

Jiang Ningwan looked at the sack and it was obvious that there was a person inside.

"Who is this?"

"Lu Qingheng."

Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan was shocked, "Isn't Lu Qingheng dead?"

Luo Li replied, "He's not dead. The body is fake. It's just a disguise mask."

"From what Lu Qingheng said, I can tell she hates you. I guess you two have quite a grudge against each other, so I'll keep her and give her to you."

Jiang Ningwan chuckled: "Thank you."

Luo Li then had the sack carried onto the carriage and said, "She's been drugged. She probably won't wake up for another two days. The journey should be safe and she won't have any trouble."

Jiang Ningwan and others got on the carriage, and the team set off soon.

In order to ensure that they could return quietly, their return route had been arranged long ago to avoid Lu Lingsong's army.

After arriving in Canglong.

Xiao Lan reported, "Lu Lingsong's army is still stationed here. I heard that Qin Beihuang is looking for his wife everywhere. It seems that his wife can't return with us."

Jiang Ningwan nodded, "They can't find out that I went to Qian Country."

As she spoke, she looked at Qin Shuangchi and said, "You go first, take Lu Qingheng with you, and go to Huaifeng to wait for me."

Hearing this, Qin Shuangchi knew what she wanted to do, "Okay."

It was here that Jiang Ningwan and Qin Shuangchi's teams separated.

He rode his horse to the camp.

Before reaching the camp, I met Xiao Fuxue, Qin Beihuang and others.

When they saw Jiang Ningwan, everyone was ecstatic.

"General, I'm so glad you're okay!"

Jiang Ningwan smiled and said, "I'm lucky enough not to die."

Qin Beihuang also breathed a sigh of relief and looked at her worriedly, "Where have you been these days? I asked the Qian Kingdom army, but they denied arresting you."

"I thought you fell into their hands..."

Jiang Ningwan smiled calmly, "I'm sorry to have caused you all to worry."

Xiao Fuxue said happily: "No matter what, I'm glad that the general is okay."

The group set out back to camp.

Jiang Ningwan asked, "What's the situation in the camp? Didn't they sign a peace agreement? Why are they still stationed here?"

Qin Beihuang said in a heavy tone, "Lu Qingheng's death was a huge blow to Lu Lingsong. He was in a coma for several days and only woke up yesterday."

"He was unwilling to take Lu Qingheng's body back like this."

Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan frowned in confusion, "Then what else does he want to do? Isn't the emperor's order also to negotiate peace?"

Qin Beihuang shook his head. "I feel like he's gone mad and wants to avenge Lu Qingheng."

Jiang Ningwan was thoughtful. Lu Qingheng's body was fake and could not be kept for too long, otherwise it would be troublesome if it was discovered.

"Revenge? If he wants revenge, he can do it himself. Anyway, I won't get involved in his private affairs."

"Once we get back to camp, I'll set off back to Beijing."

Hearing this, Qin Beihuang nodded, "I hope he won't act impulsively."

After returning to the camp, Jiang Ningwan began to assemble the Lingwei Army and prepare to set off back to Beijing.

But at this time, Lu Lingsong sent someone to call her over.

As soon as he entered the tent, he was surrounded by dozens of soldiers with swords.

Qin Beihuang entered the room shortly after. Seeing this scene, his expression changed and he immediately rushed to Jiang Ningwan. "Lu Lingsong, what do you want to do?"

Lu Lingsong looked a little haggard, and his eyes were full of murderous intent and hatred.

In just a few days, he grew stubble and looked ten years older.

He raised his sword and pointed it at Jiang Ningwan, "Jiang Ningwan, where have you been these past few days?"

"Did you go to Qian Country? Are you in the same group with Luo Li and the others?"

"You're conspiring to kill my sister, aren't you?"

Jiang Ningwan's heart skipped a beat; he had actually guessed it right.

But before she could open her mouth, Qin Beihuang came to her defense: "It's not easy for Jiang Ningwan to return safely. If she fell into the hands of the Qian people, would they let her go?"

"You've been clouded by your sister's death. Don't forget that you're the commander-in-chief of an army now. Calm down!"

Lu Lingsong was furious. "It is precisely because I am the commander-in-chief of an army that I have the right and reason to suspect Jiang Ningwan and interrogate her!"

"Qin Beihuang, step back!"

"Otherwise, you will be treated as an accomplice!"
