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

Chapter 399 Xie Yongan Leaves the Palace

After returning, Jiang Ningwan discussed a solution with Qin Shuangchi.

It might be difficult to attack other people at night, but it is not difficult to deal with a royal doctor.

Zhang Yunsong went to see Doctor Li at night to ask for medical advice, and found an opportunity to put medicine in Doctor Li's tea.

By late night, Doctor Li fell into a coma.

Qin Shuangchi's men immediately sneaked into the room and began searching.

It took a full hour to finally find the Queen's medical records.

Jiang Ningwan waited until late at night without rest and finally received the medical record.

She immediately opened it and checked.

Qin Shuangchi immediately took out a pen and paper and took notes.

Jiang Ningwan read out the prescription and he quickly wrote it down.

After memorizing the prescription, Jiang Ningwan also roughly finished reading the medical records.

Then he immediately asked someone to return the medical records.

So as to avoid letting Doctor Li notice.

After everything was done, the oil lamp in the room was dimly lit. Jiang Ningwan looked through the prescriptions one by one, frowning.

"What did you see?" Qin Shuangchi asked doubtfully.

Jiang Ningwan spoke slowly, "The first prescription was symptomatic, but the later prescriptions have nothing to do with headaches. They simply use herbs to replenish Qi and blood."

"After the Queen fell ill, my aunt assisted in managing the six palaces. Logically, there weren't many trivial matters that would drain the Queen's energy and blood, so she wouldn't need these medicines."

"This method of treatment is not common, nor is it the best option."

"But if you insist on saying there's something wrong with the prescription he prescribed, I can't find any fault."

After listening to this, Qin Shuangchi frowned and thought, "In other words, these herbs can be used by the Queen, but it is not necessary, right?"

Jiang Ningwan nodded.

"And the symptoms I saw in the medical records are indeed very similar to Princess Yi's headache."

"The pulse symptoms are extremely similar."

This kind of headache is neither common nor uncommon. At least she has only seen two people like it so far, and they happened to be Princess Yi and the Queen.

It is inevitable that people will doubt that this is not as simple as a disease.

Qin Shuangchi pondered over it and said quietly, "This Imperial Physician Li was promoted by the Queen. The Queen only trusts him and lets him diagnose and prescribe medicine."

"But if this Imperial Physician Li is bribed by someone else, then the Queen's illness will never be cured."

Jiang Ningwan nodded in agreement, "But who can bribe Doctor Li?"

Someone who was promoted by the Queen and has the Queen's absolute trust must be an extremely loyal person.

The two looked at each other and had the same guess, but they didn't say it out loud.

Then Qin Shuangchi said, "Let's start with Doctor Li."

Jiang Ningwan nodded.

……

late at night.

Xie Yongan is packing his luggage, preparing to leave tomorrow.

The Emperor of Daning had already issued an order to expel him and only gave him two days to pack up.

It was Xiang Sui who begged for mercy in the past two days.

Not long after, Jiang Xiru came here at the risk of her life. She only learned tonight that Xie Yongan was leaving.

The two hugged each other tightly.

"Take me away." Jiang Xiru's voice was choked with sobs.

Xie Yongan felt melancholy. "I asked the emperor for you, but he had to consider Qin Chengqian's reputation and face, so he couldn't give you to me."

"You and Qin Chengqian are still married, so I can't take you away with me."

Looking at Jiang Xiru's red eyes, she didn't know how many times she had cried. After the matter was exposed, she must have endured a lot of Qin Chengqian's anger.

"If only you were just an ordinary person." Xie Yongan couldn't help but sigh and raised his hand to wipe away the tears on Jiang Xiru's face.

Jiang Xiru was speechless and just kept crying.

Xie Yongan added, "Give me a year, and I will come back to take you away."

Hearing this, Jiang Xiru's eyes widened, "One year?"

So long.

Xie Yongan sighed and said, "One year is already the limit, you wait for me!"

"I promised the emperor many conditions. He promised me that he would spare your life and not harm you. I will definitely come back to take you away!"

Jiang Xiru frowned, "Is there no other way?"

Xie Yongan shook his head helplessly. Only when he sat on the throne would he be qualified to take Jiang Xiru away.

This was also the condition agreed upon with the Emperor of Daning.

Jiang Xiru's hand that was grabbing his sleeve slowly dropped, her eyes full of disappointment.

I once wanted to rely on Qin Chengqian, but he was unreliable.

Later I wanted to rely on Xie Yongan, but now he is still unreliable.

The one-year promise was an illusory thing to her.

"Trust me! Wait for me to pick you up!" Xie Yongan hugged her in his arms again.

"If my plan succeeds, you will be the Queen of Dayan!"

Xie Yongan's tone was very firm.

The word "Queen" rekindled a glimmer of hope in Jiang Xiru's dead heart.

After a moment of silence, Jiang Xiru replied firmly: "One year, I will wait for you."

Xie Yongan was very excited and kissed Jiang Xiru on the forehead.

The two of them didn't spend much time together before Qin Chengqian arrived.

Looking at the two people alone in the room, Qin Chengqian's face darkened, "Jiang Xiru, come here."

The gloomy tone and expression made people feel cold.

Jiang Xiru walked over slowly and stood beside Qin Chengqian.

Qin Chengqian's eyes were sharp, and he looked at Xie Yongan with hostility, "Does the Fourth Prince really think Jiang Xiru is yours?"

"You didn't do a single thing you promised me!"

Xie Yongan was dissatisfied, but he didn't dare to say anything harsh to anger Qin Chengqian, for fear of causing trouble for Jiang Xiru.

"Grand Prince, let's be fair. It's not that I didn't do what I promised you, nor did I neglect it. It's just that my opponent was too strong."

"I lost a lot in order to help you, and I didn't even finish my own business on this trip."

So many bloodworms were wasted. They were originally intended to be used to find Xie Chenyuan.

Now no one knows the whereabouts of Xie Chenyuan.

Qin Chengqian said angrily: "I only look at the results!"

If their affair had not been discovered, he would not have ended up like this.

In his father's eyes, he is now just a useless piece of shit who is incapable of shouldering any important responsibilities!

"The eldest prince..." Xie Yongan wanted to say something.

But Qin Chengqian was so angry that he refused to listen. He grabbed Jiang Xiru's arm and pulled her away.

Jiang Xiru looked back repeatedly, tears in her eyes.

But Xie Yongan was powerless and could only watch with a stuffy pain in his chest.

After a while, Xiang Sui came in and said, "Master, don't worry, just go back. I will take care of Jiang Xiru for you."

Xie Yongan nodded, "Thank you for your hard work! Make sure she's safe!"

Fortunately, Xiangsui has now been conferred the title of noble lady and is staying in Daning Palace, so she can take care of things.

Jiang Xiru was dragged all the way back to the room, and her wrist felt so painful that it felt like it was about to be crushed.

"Let go!" She pushed him away angrily in pain.

As soon as he looked up, he met Qin Chengqian's angry eyes.

The next moment, Qin Chengqian grabbed her wrist and asked sternly, "What? Are you really in love with Xie Yongan?"

"Do you still remember who your husband is?"

Jiang Xiru's eyes were red and filled with anger, but she could only swallow all her dissatisfaction and grievances.

"How could that be? I always remember the mission Your Highness gave me. I just wanted to fulfill Your Highness's wish and help Him."

Despite saying this, Qin Chengqian didn't feel any sincerity at all. He pinched her chin and forced her to look straight at him.

"Are you blaming me? For giving you to Xie Yongan?"

Jiang Xiru avoided his gaze and said, "I dare not."

"Don't you dare?"

Seeing her like this, Qin Chengqian felt inexplicably angry. He was furious at the thought that she dared to go see Xie Yongan tonight.

He picked up Jiang Xiru and threw her heavily onto the bed.

Jiang Xiru hastily refused, "Your Highness..."
