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

Qin Shuangchi was startled and turned around to see Jiang Ningwan pulling the wheelchair from behind.

"You're not dizzy?"

Jiang Ningwan controlled the wheelchair and moved him down little by little. "I wanted to see your injuries before, but you refused to let me. Now you're suddenly asking me to examine them. There must be something fishy going on."

"Just keeping an eye on it."

"I didn't expect you would actually come to my door."

Qin Shuangchi frowned, "They won't give up until they find me. We can't get out, and sooner or later we'll die here!"

Jiang Ningwan was firm, "They're looking for me. I was the one who killed King Zhao! What's the point of you going?"

If it weren't for her, Qin Shuangchi wouldn't be in danger.

If Qin Shuangchi's life is exchanged for hers, she would rather die.

"I'll go if anyone has to." Jiang Ningwan pushed the wheelchair to the corner.

Qin Shuangchi's expression changed, and he grabbed her arm tightly, "You are not allowed to go out!"

Just as he finished speaking, smoke began to drift out of the wine cellar. Jiang Ningwan's heart sank, "I'm afraid we can't get out now!"

From outside came Hei Wu's shout: "King of Chu! And that female general from Daning, come out now, and I can leave you with an intact body!"

"Otherwise, you'll be burned to death in this restaurant!"

"I know you're hiding here, don't waste time."

Jiang Ningwan was extremely anxious. She glanced at the arm that Qin Shuangchi was holding tightly. She held on to a glimmer of hope and asked:

"King Zhao is dead, and Zechuan City is ownerless. What if I help Heiwu take control of Zechuan City? Is there any chance that he will let us go?"

"As long as there are interests, there is the possibility of negotiation."

But Qin Shuangchi shook his head, "It might be possible for others, but there is no possibility of negotiation with Heiwu."

"Heiwu was adopted by King Zhao. Although King Zhao is fond of beautiful women and is inhumane, he treats Heiwu very well. These top-notch guards who are trained by his side are all people who value love."

Jiang Ningwan's heart sank. That meant that if she went out, she would die.

At this time, the fire had already started outside the wine cellar and thick smoke was billowing.

If you don’t go out, you’ll be burned to death here!

Jiang Ningwan gritted her teeth and said, "Never mind, let's get out of the wine cellar first!"

The entire restaurant was engulfed in flames. Heiwu led his men to retreat outside the restaurant, waiting for them to be caught.

Jiang Ningwan wet the quilt with water, put it on her body, and then controlled the wheelchair mechanism and pushed it out of the wine cellar.

But at this moment, the whole shed was filled with thick smoke, and heavy wine vats surrounded the entrance to the cellar, making it impossible to push the wheelchair out smoothly.

The thick smoke and fire made it impossible for Jiang Ningwan to open her eyes.

"Your Highness, wait for me!" Jiang Ningwan went to move the wine jar away, but her hands touched the hot wine jar and were instantly burned red.

She gritted her teeth, endured the pain, and moved the wine barrel eagerly.

When they finally made way, Jiang Ningwan was delighted and hurried back to push the wheelchair.

"My Lord, let's get out!"

But the moment she turned around, the fire broke the beams and suddenly fell towards her.

Qin Shuangchi's pupils constricted and he rushed over as fast as he could.

He pulled Jiang Ningwan into his arms and protected her with his body.

With a loud bang, the beams fell down.

It fell on Qin Shuangchi's back and got stuck on the wheelchair, just enough to create half a person's height. Jiang Ningwan was unharmed.

In panic, she raised her eyes, only to see the pale face covered in blood.

At the back, the thick beams were still burning with flames.

"Your Highness!" Jiang Ningwan's tears instantly burst out and she quickly stood up and tried to move the beam away.

Qin Shuangchi held her wrist tightly and said, "Don't worry about me, just go!"

Jiang Ningwan shook her head firmly, "I won't leave you alone!"

She picked up a wet quilt and slapped the flames on the beam, trying to push the beam away, but it was too heavy and stuck tightly, so she had to give up.

Then he immediately squatted down with his back to Qin Shuangchi, "Your Highness, the wheelchair is stuck. I'll carry you out! Quick!"

boom--

The shed completely collapsed.

Fire and thick smoke completely surrounded them.

There was no way forward, the sky was filled with flames, blocking all vision.

"Cough cough cough..." Jiang Ningwan was choking so hard that she had no strength left and could no longer see clearly around her.

He could only drag the still wet quilt to cover himself and Qin Shuangchi.

She curled up beside the wheelchair, leaning on Qin Shuangchi's arm, "Your Highness, I have implicated you..."

Qin Shuangchi was already very weak. He stroked her hair with his hand and said, "I can't protect you."

He hated himself for being a cripple.

If it were back then, I would have taken her and fought my way out.

Now it only drags down the people around it.

Is it right or wrong to marry Jiang Ningwan?

"Now you and I are trapped here to death. Do you regret marrying me?"

Jiang Ningwan's head felt dizzy and she was having trouble breathing. "We're living and dying together. What's there to ask?"

Qin Shuangchi spoke slowly: "Actually, it was me who arranged the marriage with the Emperor..."

At this moment, amidst the sound of the burning fire, the cry of a hawk was heard, sharp and rapid.

Jiang Ningwan rekindled her hope, "Your Majesty, we are about to escape death! Hang in there! Someone is coming to save us!"

Soon, there were a lot of footsteps outside.

"Put out the fire!" A familiar voice sounded outside the fire.

As basin after basin of water was poured in, bringing a hint of coolness amid the scorching heat, Jiang Ningwan was extremely excited.

When the fire died down a little, a dark shadow rushed in.

"Xiao Ning'er!"

Seeing the ghost mask appearing from the thick smoke, Jiang Ningwan shouted happily, "Uncle Luo!"

Jiang Ningwan was already conscious, but the next moment she felt someone picking her up and rushing out through the fire and thick smoke.

"Uncle Luo, King Chu...save the King Chu!"

Soon, a large number of soldiers rushed into the fire and rescued Qin Shuangchi.

When Jiang Ningwan saw Qin Shuangchi being rescued, her heart finally settled down and she finally couldn't hold on any longer and fainted.

……

When I woke up again, I was in an unfamiliar room, surrounded by a faint smell of medicine.

"Ningwan, you finally woke up!" Jiang Zhouye came in with medicine, his face full of joy.

Jiang Ningwan propped herself up and sat up, "Why are you here too?"

"I came with General Luo, Zechuan. Luckily we arrived in time, otherwise..."

If they were a step later, they would have been burned to death.

"Drink the medicine." Jiang Zhouye blew on the medicine bowl and handed it to her.

After Jiang Ningwan finished drinking the medicine, she still felt chest tightness and asked worriedly, "How is the King of Chu? His injuries are worse than mine!"

Jiang Zhouye's eyes darkened, "He hasn't woken up yet."

"But don't worry, General Luo has summoned all the doctors in Zechuan. We are now in the clinic with plenty of medicine. The King of Chu should wake up soon!"

Jiang Ningwan was worried and pushed herself out of bed, "I'll go see him."

"By the way, have you seen Xiao Lan?"

Jiang Zhouye supported her as they walked out. "Xiao Lan is still alive, but he's been badly injured and can't get out of bed."

"That Hei Wu has died at the hands of General Luo's sword. This can be considered as revenge for you."

Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan nodded, "There's a girl's body in that wine cellar. Please help me find someone to carry it out."

"Okay, I'll go in a minute."

Came to the room of King Chu.

The doctor was sweating profusely. The wound had been bandaged and medicine had been given, but there was still no improvement.

Jiang Ning sat down before nightfall, took his pulse, and immediately became worried.

Qin Shuangchi was in a coma not only because of new injuries, but also because of serious old injuries.

After watching for a while, Xiao Lan suddenly walked in with difficulty, holding on to the wall. When he saw the King of Chu on the bed, he quickly took out the medicine bottle and poured out a pill.

"what is this?"

"The prince's life-extending medicine." Xiao Lan wanted to pour a glass of water, but it was a bit difficult because of his severe injuries.

"Let me do it."

Jiang Ningwan quickly took it, and when she saw the pill in her hand, she was suddenly stunned.

"This is... Shengyuan Yangqi Pill?"

Xiao Lan was shocked, "How did Madam know?"
