Jiang Ningwan and Qin Shuangchi were both shocked.

He actually came for Song Jiaoyun, and he even came to find Jiang Ningwan?

"My Lord, please stand up first." Jiang Ningwan hurried forward to help him up.

Marquis Wenjing spoke humbly and gravely, "I know General Jiang is acquainted with the shopkeeper at Yunshan Yao, and seems to know his whereabouts."

"My daughter is almost dying because of his disappearance!"

As he spoke, Marquis Wenjing was almost in tears.

Jiang Ningwan was shocked, "He's dead?"

Marquis Wenjing choked up and said, "She seems to be possessed by a demon. She has been on a hunger strike for three days and has no hope of survival. Even calling a doctor is of no use. She spews out all the medicine she drinks."

"The doctor said this is a heart disease, and heart disease needs to be treated with heart medicine."

"So I'd like to ask General Jiang for help. Can you please invite this Zhu Yan here so that we can see Yun'er again? No matter what the outcome is, at least let Yun'er survive!"

Jiang Ningwan was shocked after hearing this.

Unexpectedly, the matter would become so serious that Song Jiaoyun even gave up his life.

After exchanging a glance with Qin Shuangchi, she said to Marquis Wenjing, "My Lord, please go home first. I will come to visit you in the evening."

Marquis Wenjing didn't ask any further questions, knowing that Jiang Ningwan had agreed to help. "Then I'll wait for news from General Jiang!"

……

When the carriage arrived at the Wenjing Marquis's residence, night was about to fall and the sky was dark.

Jiang Ningwan and Zhu Yan, dressed in a black robe, got off the carriage.

When Song Mingyu, who came to greet him, saw him, his face changed. He really came!

Seeing Song Mingyu's hostility, Jiang Ningwan said, "I'm here today for your sister, so don't make trouble!"

"Of course I won't." Song Mingyu sulked alone.

Then Jiang Ningwan and Zhu Yan were led into the inner courtyard.

Marquis Wenjing didn't say much, "My daughter is in the room."

Jiang Ningwan looked at Zhu Yan, who said in a deep voice, "Come with me."

So Jiang Ningwan followed him into the room.

Song Jiaoyun looked haggard and had indeed lost a lot of weight, as if he had lost his vitality.

It wasn't until he saw Zhu Yan that his gray eyes finally lit up, "Shopkeeper Zhu Yan! Am I seeing things? Is it really you?"

Zhu Yan whispered, "Why does Miss Song insist on seeing me? We have no friendship."

Song Jiaoyun hesitated and looked at Jiang Ningwan hesitantly, "Can we talk alone?"

Zhu Yan refused calmly: "No."

"I……"

Before he could finish his words, Song Jiaoyun interrupted him anxiously: "Shopkeeper Zhu Yan, I like you! From the first time I saw you, I can never forget you..."

She seemed to have mustered up all her courage to say this, so quickly that people couldn't react.

Jiang Ningwan stood aside feeling a little embarrassed.

Zhu Yan was silent for a moment before speaking: "I don't have any impression of Miss Song. I'm sorry to disappoint her."

Song Jiaoyun quickly added, "Don't reject me so quickly! I know I don't know you well enough, but can you give me a chance?"

"Don't disappear just to avoid me, okay?"

After such a clear rejection, seeing that Song Jiaoyun had not given up, Qin Shuangchi sighed.

"We can't."

Song Jiaoyun wanted to ask: "Why..."

But the next moment, she was stunned.

Zhu Yan took off his mask.

A familiar face appeared before my eyes.

At that moment, Song Jiaoyun was struck by lightning and stood there in a daze.

It took him a long while to come back to his senses, "You...you are Zhu Yan? You lied to me, right? Zhu Yan didn't come, right?"

Seeing that she still had illusions, Qin Shuangchi said in a deep voice: "I am Zhu Yan. I was invited to Kaiyun Mountain to investigate the case of missing military weapons. At that time, I had no other identity, so I could only use Zhu Yan."

After hearing this, Song Jiaoyun took an unsteady step back.

"So... it's the King of Chu..." Her eyes were red and her hope was completely shattered.

At this time, Song Mingyu, who was eavesdropping outside the door, couldn't help it and rushed into the room.

When he saw the person standing before him, his head was buzzing.

I was so shocked that I couldn't speak.

It turned out to be the King of Chu?

So Jiang Ningwan was with the King of Chu when she watched the stars with him in Echo Valley that night.

No wonder Jiang Ningwan said he misunderstood.

No wonder he said he didn't understand.

It turns out that this is the truth.

He is so ridiculous!

Then Qin Shuangchi put on the mask, turned around and left the room.

Jiang Ningwan also left immediately.

Marquis Wenjing was waiting in the courtyard and hurried forward to ask, "Are you leaving now?"

Jiang Ningwan nodded, "It's been made clear."

Then the two of them left the Wenjing Marquis Mansion. In the carriage, Qin Shuangchi took off his coat.

"We still have to go to the palace."

Jiang Ningwan understood what he meant, "Do you want to report Yunshan's invitation to the Emperor?"

Qin Shuangchi nodded, "Things are different now. In the past, it was understandable to train private soldiers when you were trapped in a difficult situation, but if you still have private soldiers now, it means you have a rebellious heart."

"This matter will be revealed sooner or later, so it's better to explain it clearly as soon as possible."

Although the person sitting on the throne now is Ning Wan's cousin, he doesn't dare to gamble on people's hearts.

He grew up in the royal family, and no matter how strong the brotherly love is, it may not be worth the stability of the throne.

He didn't want what happened that year to happen again to him and Ning Wan.

Jiang Ningwan nodded. "Let's go together. At worst, we can just hand over our private soldiers. I don't think the emperor will blame us."

The two of them went to the palace together to meet the emperor.

Qin Wenli was a little surprised that they came into the palace so late at night. "Why do you want to see me so late at night? Is there something important?"

So Qin Shuangchi told Yunshan everything about his invitation.

He also explained that he was investigating the case of stolen weapons in order to have an identity to use when returning to Kyoto.

After hearing this, Qin Wenli was shocked, "That's all?"

Jiang Ningwan quickly said, "That's all. There are no other private soldiers!"

Qin Wenli chuckled suddenly, "What I mean is, is this a small matter, is it worth you coming to me in person to explain it?"

"But it's better to explain it clearly. I have a clear idea in my mind."

"Let's incorporate these private soldiers into the Lingwei Army. From now on, they'll act openly and honestly! This will also save people from gossip!"

Jiang Ningwan breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Qin Wenli added, "Lianyi was still thinking about you today, saying that you haven't been to the palace to accompany her for a few days. If you are not in a hurry to go back, you can stay in Fengqi Palace tonight."

Jiang Ningwan nodded, "Okay, I'll go now."

Qin Wenli nodded in agreement and looked at Qin Shuangchi, "How about playing two games of chess with me, uncle?"

Jiang Ningwan went to Fengqi Palace, and Qin Shuangchi stayed to play chess with the emperor.

Hai Dehong prepared tea and then left.

Only Qin Shuangchi and the emperor were left in the hall.

Qin Wenli spoke slowly: "I am different from the late emperor. Uncle, there is no need to worry so much. I trust you."

"As long as you treat Ning Wan well, I can protect you no matter how big the problem is!"

Hearing this, Qin Shuangchi was slightly surprised, then chuckled: "It seems that I was worrying too much."
