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

Chapter 154 Retrial of the Ling Family Collaboration Case

For the next half month, Kyoto City was filled with the struggle between the Pei family and Qiu Cheng's forces.

Jiang Ningwan disappeared silently.

No one cares about her.

After waiting for dozens of days, Uncle Luo finally wrote to me.

There were only two words in the letter: Come and get it.

Jiang Ningwan raised the corners of his lips slightly, and that night he secretly mobilized troops and led them to the Canglong border.

The route and cover had already been arranged, so Jiang Ningwan had a particularly smooth journey.

After arriving in Canglong, Jiang Ningwan met Uncle Luo again.

"Uncle Luo!"

Luo Zhongjin took off his mask, a smile on his face, "When did you develop the ability to tell fortunes? The portrait you gave me really is of a prince."

Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan couldn't hide her excitement, "So, are you guys doing well?"

Luo Zhongjin poured her a cup of tea and said, "It's going well. We're almost taking the capital."

"By the way, this weapons transaction went smoothly. A total of 50,000 taels were paid, and we bought fourteen boxes of weapons. I've detained all the people involved in the transaction, and I've gotten their confessions. You can take them back anytime to earn merit."

Jiang Ningwan took the stack of confessions and was overjoyed. "Great! Thank you, Uncle Luo!"

"I'll give you the 50,000 taels later."

With these solid evidences, Qiu Cheng can't escape!

Luo Zhongjin smiled faintly, "Why are you being so polite to your Uncle Luo? Can I still accept your fifty thousand taels?"

"Wait until I conquer the capital and help the young master ascend the throne, and Uncle Luo will support you!"

"If you don't want to stay in Daning Kingdom anymore, come find me anytime."

Jiang Ningwan's eyebrows lit up with joy. "Then I'll wait for Uncle Luo's good news."

"When everything goes well after I return to Beijing, I also have good news to tell you."

Luo Zhongjin patted her shoulder and said, "Okay, take care of yourself and go back."

"You shouldn't delay this case. Delaying will lead to unexpected consequences."

That night, Jiang Ningwan brought the people and evidence and set off back to Kyoto City.

……

Wu Bohou Mansion.

Qiu Cheng stood in the yard with the betrothal gifts, his hands behind his back, his eyes greedily sweeping over Pei Xunzhi.

"It's useless for you, the Pei family, to delay. If you don't accept the betrothal gift today, it means you don't want to marry me. Marquis Wu Bo will be guilty of deceiving the emperor!"

"Accept the betrothal gift, and the wedding will be set for seven days from now."

After spending so much time with the Pei family, he no longer wanted to continue to entangle himself with them, so he specially raised money and prepared a betrothal gift to force the Pei family to agree.

As long as the wedding date is set, he can take Pei Xunzhi away with justification. After all, he still has official duties in the north, and it is only natural for him to take Pei Xunzhi back to the north to get married.

Wu Bohou's face was solemn. He had tried his best to delay the matter, but now he was afraid that he could not delay it any longer.

Pei Xunzhi felt aggrieved but dared not speak. If she really had to marry Qiu Cheng, she would die.

Don't put yourself in a difficult position and don't bring trouble to your family.

At the same time, Jiang Ningwan's team returned to Beijing in a mighty manner.

There were spies watching the Wu Bohou Mansion for a long time, and they immediately rushed back to report the news.

The guard whispered a few words in Pei Xunzhi's ear. Pei Xunzhi's eyes lit up and he immediately straightened his back.

"Shameless! You're old enough to be my father, and you still want to marry me."

"Who cares about your little betrothal gift? Take your filthy things and get out of my Wubohou Mansion!"

Pei Xunzhi's sudden domineering attitude startled Qiu Cheng.

Did she take the wrong medicine?

You haven't dared to say anything for so many days, and now you suddenly dare to scold him?

"Well, it seems that you, the Wubo Marquis Mansion, are tired of living."

"I will convey your words to His Majesty exactly as they were!"

"go!"

Qiu Cheng turned away angrily.

He really went to the palace to file a complaint.

But he ran into Jiang Ningwan in front of the palace gate.

"Deputy Commander Qiu, what a coincidence."

Jiang Ningwan gave a meaningful smile.

Qiu Cheng glared at her coldly.

"Don't be too happy too soon. It's still uncertain who will win."

Once Pei Xunzhi falls into his hands, will he still be afraid that he won’t be able to control Jiang Ningwan?

Jiang Ningwan walked into the palace slowly with her hands behind her back. "It's uncertain who will win, but your confidant will die in my hands."

Qiu Cheng snorted coldly and didn't take her words seriously at all.

until……

In the imperial study room.

Jiang Ningwan said sternly, "Northern Deputy Commander Qiu Cheng stole iron ore, forged weapons, and sold them to the Qian Kingdom army. I caught him red-handed. His close confidant, Chen Hai, has confessed everything. Here is his testimony!"

"Fourteen boxes of weapons, the transaction documents, and the people who transported the weapons are all in the government office."

At that moment, Qiu Cheng's heart sank and his legs went weak.

Looking at Jiang Ningwan in disbelief.

How did she know this?

When a thick stack of evidence was presented to the emperor, his face gradually turned ashen.

He slammed the table in anger.

"Qiu Cheng! You are so brave!"

The emperor favors military generals because he needs them to conquer the world and expand the territory of Daning Kingdom. However, Qiu Cheng did things that were harmful to Daning Kingdom, which is something the emperor absolutely cannot tolerate.

Qiu Cheng knelt down in panic, trying to explain himself.

But the evidence Jiang Ningwan had made it impossible for him to explain.

But this is not the end.

Jiang Ningwan presented another object and said in a resounding voice, "Not only that, Qiu Cheng forged a letter of treason, bribed the concubine of the Ling family's eldest son, and framed the Ling family for collaborating with the enemy."

"Here is the confession letter from the eldest son of the Ling family and his mistress. It is clearly written. Your Majesty, please review it."

"The Ling family is wronged!"

After many years, she was finally able to say these words in front of the emperor with confidence.

At that moment, I was so excited that my heart almost jumped out of my chest.

But she still couldn't feel at ease at this time.

When these words were spoken, the emperor's face changed and his palms tightened slightly.

Eunuch Hai was shocked, worried and moved by Jiang Ningwan.

After reading the confession, the emperor was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke: "Reexamine the Ling family's case of collaborating with the enemy. Order the three courts to jointly try the two cases and investigate them thoroughly!"

Jiang Ningwan's anxious heart finally settled down a little.

As long as there is a retrial, there is a chance to overturn the verdict.

What I couldn't wait for in my previous life has finally been done.

Qiu Cheng had collapsed to the ground, covered in cold sweat.

He was quickly dragged away by the guards and imprisoned in the sky prison.

The news spread quickly and the whole court was shocked.

Some are happy and some are sad.

Lu family.

When Lu Qingheng heard the news, he almost fainted.

He slumped weakly into a chair. "If the Ling family overturns the verdict, Jiang Ningwan will be completely clean. How can her future be blocked..."

Lu Lingsong closed his eyes and took a deep breath, still finding it hard to accept this fact.

"The most urgent thing is to solve Qiu Cheng's problem. Let's put Jiang Ningwan aside for now."

If Qiu Chengpan bites the Lu family, then it will be really over.

Lu Qingheng's eyes were red and his nails dug into his palms.

She will fight Jiang Ningwan to the death in this life!

……

Prince Chu's Mansion.

Qin Shuangchi was not surprised to learn that the Ling family case was being retried.

There was a flicker of disappointment in his eyes.

"She finally did it."

Xiao Lan was full of admiration, "Madam, without making any noise, actually accomplished such a great thing."

"Qiu Cheng is smuggling weapons, which is a serious crime. Madam has done a great deed again!"

The frost and snow in Qin Shuangchi's eyes seemed to melt away, "This is what she originally looked like."

Fortunately, he did not become a burden to her like Qin Beihuang.

It’s just a pity that we are not destined to be together in this life.
