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

"Mute? And wearing a mask?" Song Mingyu was a little stunned.

Jiang Ningwan explained, "This is an old subordinate of my grandfather's. He was injured on the battlefield, so he has been staying at the Jiang residence."

Hearing this, Song Mingyu was even more impressed. "So that's how it is. General Jiang has a kind heart, a true bodhisattva. It's a blessing to be able to follow General Jiang."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Shuangchi stepped forward, picked up the teacup and drank it all in one gulp.

Song Mingyu was shocked, "Don't! This is what Lai Fu drank!"

Qin Shuangchi remained silent, took another piece of cake and started eating without hesitation. Song Mingyu seemed to be hesitant to speak.

The servants in the Jiang residence are really brave.

I guess it's because General Jiang condones it on a daily basis.

Jiang Ningwan was overwhelmed and said quickly, "Sixth Brother, don't you still have to plant flowers today? Hurry up and do it while the sun is still up."

Qin Shuangchi looked unhappy when he heard this, and took the plate of pastries and left.

"Hey! Those were what I bought for General Jiang! Why did you take them all? You are such a rude person!" Song Mingyu scolded unhappily.

But Qin Shuangchi turned a deaf ear and walked with arrogance.

He walked away with the cake and threw a piece to Lai Fu.

Seeing that he ignored her and fed the cakes to Lai Fu, Song Mingyu became even angrier. General Jiang didn't even get a single bite!

"General Jiang, even if he is an old subordinate of General Ling, he shouldn't be so arrogant and not take you seriously..." Song Mingyu was very angry.

Jiang Ningwan quickly explained: "Forget it, forget it, his hearing isn't very good either, he probably didn't hear what you said!"

Song Mingyu was shocked. "His ears aren't very good either? Then he... is pretty miserable."

As he said this, Song Mingyu looked at him again with some reluctance.

"Yeah, so don't bother with him."

Jiang Ningwan glanced at the sky and said, "I have to go to the army later, so I won't chat with you anymore."

Hearing this, Song Mingyu tactfully said, "I should be leaving too. I'll come visit the general again when I have time."

Then Jiang Ningwan asked Li Qiu to see the guest off.

Make sure Song Mingyu is gone.

Qin Shuangchi walked out slowly, "You brat who doesn't know your own limitations!"

"This Song family is really something. They keep pestering me and can find me even if I hide at the Jiang residence!"

Fortunately, he came to Jiang's house and stayed with Jiang Ningwan all the time, otherwise Song Mingyu would have to use all means to steal her away.

"Don't be angry, you were such a fool just now. What were you doing out here? What if he recognized you?"

Jiang Ningwan felt scared when she thought about it.

The plan has reached the most critical step. If something goes wrong at this time, all the efforts will be in vain.

Qin Shuangchi sat down leisurely, "Don't worry, I'm dumb and deaf, he didn't take me seriously and couldn't recognize me."

As he said that, Qin Shuangchi fed all the cakes to Lai Fu.

Jiang Ningwan slowly stepped forward and leaned on his shoulder. "What? Are you still angry?"

Qin Shuangchi didn't say anything.

"Are you really angry? Then how can you not be angry?" Jiang Ningwan asked softly.

Unexpectedly, Qin Shuangchi pressed the back of her head and kissed her lips.

A strong force pulled her over, and after a dizzying moment, Jiang Ningwan sat in Qin Shuangchi's arms.

The hand pressing on her head did not loosen, and a low voice came out from between his lips: "Like this."

After he finished speaking, he kissed her even harder.

……

The next day.

In the court, the ministers had their own opinions on the matter of Dahan's spies.

"Dahan hasn't stopped making wine to invade us yet, and now the even more powerful Ru Mengzui has appeared in Huainan. We must stop him immediately!"

"I suggest that General Jiang and the Dragon Guards go to Huainan to investigate this matter. We must eliminate Ru Mengzui. If the infection spreads, the consequences will be disastrous."

Jiang Ningwan was slightly startled. "Let me go with the Dragon Guards? Isn't that a bit too much of a mobilization?"

The other party quickly said, "This time, Dahan clearly came prepared. We don't have time to slowly track them down. We must catch them all immediately!"

"Yes, this time Ru Mengzui is much more powerful than before, so don't be careless!"

Jiang Ningwan frowned. "If the Lingwei Army and the Longwu Guards go to Huainan together, then the only ones left to defend Kyoto City are the City Defense Battalion and the Imperial Guards. If something unexpected happens in Kyoto, I'm afraid we won't be able to get back in time."

As soon as Jiang Ningwan said this, a minister immediately questioned him, "General Jiang is making excuses. Could it be that he doesn't want to make this trip? Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince values ​​him, he doesn't want to do the dirty work, right?"

Jiang Ningwan scoffed, "I don't want to make this trip? I was the one who investigated Ru Mengzui in Liyang!"

Qin Wenli quickly said, "Stop arguing."

After thinking for a moment, he said in a deep voice, "General Jiang, this time you and Jiang Zhouye will go to Huainan to investigate Ru Mengzui."

"Can you eliminate all Ru Meng Zui and Da Han spies within half a month?"

The order had been given, so Jiang Ningwan couldn't say anything more.

"can do it!"

Qin Wenli nodded, "That's great, get ready and set off immediately!"

Jiang Ningwan responded: "Yes!"

On that day, Jiang Ningwan and Jiang Zhouye set out together and rushed to Huainan.

The two of them rode out of the capital together.

Jiang Zhouye glanced back and said, "The Lingwei Army is the closest army to Kyoto. Now that they have been transferred away, Kyoto's defenses are left empty. I don't know what His Highness is thinking..."

Jiang Ningwan said, "Let's avoid suspicion. He is the crown prince now, and he is afraid that the court officials will think that he is too partial to me, and he doesn't want me, a military general, to enjoy myself in the capital."

The man in black waited in the bushes by the roadside for a long time. Only after he saw them go far away did he turn back and report what he had heard to his master.

After listening, Zhou Lin's eyes darkened. "This Jiang Ningwan is cunning. Keep watching until Ling Weijun and Long Wuwei have gone to Huainan before reporting back."

"Yes!"

The army set out towards Huainan. Five days after leaving Kyoto City, Zhou Lin was sure that they had gone to Huainan.

"Notify His Highness and prepare for action!" Zhou Lin's eyes turned cold, and a hint of murderous intent flashed across them.

……

Everything was peaceful in the court and the palace, but that night, as Li Ji was getting dressed and preparing to go on duty, he was suddenly stopped by his men: "Sir, there's a thief in the storehouse!"

Hearing this, Li Ji immediately hurried over.

However, when he broke into the warehouse, two clubs came down from behind and knocked Li Ji unconscious.

In the warehouse, candlelight slowly lit up in the darkness, and Zhou Lin slowly walked over holding an oil lamp.

He glanced at Li Ji, who had fainted, and ordered, "Give him some medicine and keep a close eye on him. Don't let him wake up."

"Yes!"

Li Ji is a capable man, and he is not a member of the Third Prince's party. He can be kept and will work hard for the new emperor in the future.

"Everyone else, set off and take the palace tonight!"

Zhou Lin immediately took the imperial guards into action and first led them to surround Fengqi Palace.

When the Queen saw the intruding imperial guards, her expression changed drastically. "Zhou Lin! Are you planning a rebellion?"

Zhou Lin smiled coldly, "Empress, this seat is not for you."

"After enjoying it for so long, it's time to give it up!"

The Queen's eyes were sharp. "How dare you! Where's Li Ji? You no longer have the final say in the Imperial Guards!"

Zhou Lin laughed proudly and said, "Li Ji? He thinks he can subdue my Imperial Guards? All of them only obey my orders now!"

"This throne will also belong to the eldest prince."

The Queen's face turned pale and she said sternly, "I don't believe it!"

Zhou Lin smiled coldly and slowly drew his sword, "Now, you have no choice but to believe it."
