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

Insulting her in public embarrassed her, and there was no need for her to save Qin Beihuang's face.

"Again and again, Jiang Ningwan, I never hit a woman, don't force me!" Qin Beihuang grabbed her arm angrily, the veins on his forehead bulging, extremely terrifying.

Jiang Ningwan felt severe pain in her injured arm again. She frowned, but found it difficult to break free.

"let me go!"

Qin Beihuang refused to let go and sternly said, "Give me the medicine!"

At this moment, a stone flew over and hit Qin Beihuang's arm. The pain made him let go of his hand and took two steps back.

A wheelchair slowly approached, and a cold voice came: "General Qin has great authority."

Jiang Ningwan turned around and saw the pale-faced King of Chu coming towards her in a cloak.

"Uncle! Please be fair, this medicine should have been sent to our house long ago!" Qin Beihuang said angrily.

Qin Shuangchi asked back, "Why? Just because Jiang Ningwan developed the prescription at the Imperial Hospital?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Qin Beihuang's face froze.

He said confidently, "Shouldn't it be right? Jiang Ningwan has made great contributions in developing the prescription, so he should have the medicine delivered to our house as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan looked at him with disdain, "Shameless."

"What does my contribution have to do with you? Why should I give you the medicine first?"

Qin Beihuang said angrily: "Just because you are our daughter-in-law!"

This prescription should have been delivered to their home long ago, but instead of being delivered immediately, it was delayed again and again, and now they have to wait for three days.

Jiang Ningwan was speechless at such a shameless attitude.

Qin Shuangchi said quietly, "I remember that your Qin family received a sachet, so it shouldn't be infected with the disease."

Qin Beihuang felt a little guilty when the sachet was mentioned.

All those sachets were thrown away and burned, and even the one thrown into the pond was never found.

But admitting it now is undoubtedly a mistake.

Qingheng is still waiting for life-saving medicine.

"Is Jiang Ningwan some kind of Golden Immortal? Does the sachet she gave me have to be useful?" Qin Beihuang said with contempt.

Qin Shuangchi couldn't help but chuckle, "You just said she was credited with developing the prescription, but now you don't acknowledge her medical skills. So why bother asking for the prescription?"

Qin Beihuang was suddenly speechless.

Sitting in the wind, Qin Shuangchi started coughing, "Cough cough cough..."

"The people in the Imperial Hospital are very busy. The medicinal materials are all rationed and distributed in a certain order. General Qin should go back and wait."

"If I open this loophole for you today, all those who are in urgent need of medicine will come to the Imperial Hospital to make trouble, and I'm afraid there will be no peace."

The King of Chu spoke, and the rest of the Imperial Hospital staff followed suit.

In the end, Qin Beihuang had no choice but to grit his teeth and leave.

After returning home, I could only continue to give Lu Qingheng the same medicine as before.

Lu Qingheng drank countless bowls of this medicine, but after taking just one sip, she put it down in disappointment.

"Hasn't the Imperial Hospital already developed a prescription? Why are there still no new medicines today?"

Looking at Lu Qingheng's haggard face, Qin Beihuang felt distressed and could only comfort him, "The Imperial Hospital said that the medicinal materials are insufficient and it will take another two days for them to be delivered to our family."

"Qingheng, hold on a little longer and drink the medicine first." Qin Beihuang picked up the medicine bowl and wanted to feed it to her.

Lu Qingheng turned his face away, his tone disappointed: "Jiang Ningwan is deliberately making things difficult for us by not giving us the medicine."

"She holds a grudge against me and wants me dead."

Hearing this, Qin Beihuang silently clenched his fists and felt ashamed. It was his fault that he was useless and failed to get the medicine back.

After a moment of silence, Lu Qingheng turned to look at him again and said weakly, "Anyway, I've been demoted and can't help you with anything. Why don't you divorce me? If that's what Jiang Ningwan wants, maybe she'll give you the medicine."

"You, your mother, and Jianman, at least you have medicine to take."

As soon as these words were spoken, Qin Beihuang's face changed drastically.

He immediately said angrily: "Absolutely not!"

"If this is Jiang Ningwan's evil plan, I can't do what she wants!"

"Qingheng, she hurt you like this, it's my fault that I failed to protect you."

"If I have to divorce, I'll divorce her!"

"I have decided. When the epidemic is over, I will change the family tree and only write your name as the principal wife."

"Jiang Ningwan has been demoted to a concubine. From now on, she can no longer be on equal footing with you."

Hearing this, Lu Qingheng was slightly startled, and then felt a little relieved.

Qin Beihuang put down the medicine bowl again and held her hand. "Qingheng, if you can achieve military merit once, you can achieve it a second time. The emperor must continue to march south to recapture Canglong. You and I can continue to fight side by side! Achieve unparalleled achievements!"

Qin Beihuang's encouragement rekindled Lu Qingheng's hatred.

If Jiang Ningwan had not interfered, she would have been promoted all the way to become the unparalleled female general of Daning Kingdom if she had made military achievements next time.

She is skilled in martial arts and has many abilities, so she has no worries about making contributions on the battlefield.

Jiang Ningwan is a secluded woman, how can she compare with her?

Although there was a shortage of medicinal materials in the Imperial Hospital, Huichuntang had stockpiled enough medicinal materials and had already distributed anti-epidemic medicines on the streets.

Queue up to take medicine.

Many wealthy families who needed medicine urgently would go to Huichuntang to drink a bowl of tea.

Qin Beihuang had also received the news a long time ago, but he really couldn't bring himself to go to Huichuntang.

After enduring for a few more days, I finally received the medicine from the Imperial Hospital.

Within half a month, the epidemic in Kyoto City subsided and there was no sign of further infection and spread.

The prescription had already been spread to all the affected areas, and the epidemic was completely under control in less than a month.

This prescription has saved tens of thousands of lives.

The emperor was very pleased and wanted to reward Zhang Yunsong and Jiang Ningwan. Zhang Yunsong took the opportunity to hand over the evidence of Liu Wenyue abusing his power for personal gain.

Liu Wenyue was dismissed from his post and expelled from the Imperial Medical Service.

Based on his seniority and merits, Doctor Xu was promoted to the head of the Imperial Medical Bureau.

Zhang Yunsong was also promoted and rewarded.

Jiang Ningwan nervously came to the imperial study to ask for her reward.

"Your aunt has been praising you to me every day these past few days. You have made great contributions this time, and I cannot treat you unfairly. I will agree to any reward you desire!"

Jiang Ningwan felt extremely nervous when she heard the emperor's happy laughter.

She slowly took out a brocade box and opened it.

The golden crane jade pendant inside was revealed.

"Does the Emperor still remember this?"

The emperor's laughter stopped abruptly. The moment he saw the jade pendant, his eyes became calm. "Of course I remember. This is the jade pendant that the retired emperor used to wear. I loved holding this jade pendant when I was a child."

"Later, your mother joined the army to fight the enemy, and the emperor gave this item to your mother as a reward, promising her one condition."

When Ling Yaoqin was mentioned, a hint of regret flashed across the emperor's eyes.

It’s a pity that such a heroic, valiant and proud woman married Jiang Bingde.

Even when seeking justice for his father, there was no one to help or rely on.

But he was also so proud that he resolutely followed his father into exile without looking back.

He knew that Ling Yaoqin was innocent and did not want to implicate her, but he could not stop her.

Thinking of this, a barely perceptible sadness flashed across his eyes.

"You have performed great service, and I was going to reward you. Now that you have produced this item, there is a reason why I have to do so."

"Tell me, what do you want?"

When Ling Yaoqin followed him into exile, she did not take out the Golden Crane Jade Pendant to beg him. She thought she would never see this thing again, but she did not expect Jiang Ningwan to take it out.

That means that what Jiang Ningwan wants cannot be achieved simply by curing the epidemic.

The next moment, Jiang Ningwan said in a resounding voice—

"This humble servant dares to ask for an imperial decree to divorce Qin Beihuang!"
