She loses if she divorces, the reborn mistress only divorces her husband

Chapter 129 He is still alive, the unruly princess

Li Jingwan clenched her teeth and tensed her whole body. If the bearded man dared to get closer, she would pull out her knife.

At this moment, a man's voice was heard outside the tent. He spoke in Xirong language and his tone sounded urgent.

The bearded man had no choice but to stop and replied in Xirong language.

The sound outside sounded again. He muttered a few words impatiently and then walked out of the tent.

Li Jingwan did not dare to relax, but held the handle of the knife tighter.

This is a gift from her younger brother. It will be worth it if she can use it to kill this Xirong scum.

The bearded man was standing outside the tent talking to someone. After a while, he came in. The anxious look on his face was gone. Instead, he bent down and picked up his coat and belt on the ground.

He looked at Li Jingwan's vigilant eyes and grinned, "My little beauty, it's a pity that I can't let you have a taste of my power."

"But can a skinny man like the military advisor satisfy you?" The bearded man said disgustingly, "If you are not satisfied, you can come to me anytime."

Li Jingwan was confused but did not dare to relax at all.

The bearded man put on his clothes and said, "Goodbye, little beauty."

Then just leave.

As soon as he left, another Xirong soldier came in and spoke in the same language as the Sheng Dynasty, "You, get up and follow me."

"Where are we going?" Li Jingwan asked.

"The military advisor wants to see you."

military adviser?

Li Jingwan heard them all mention this person. Why did this person want to see her?

"Hurry up." The soldier urged.

She had no choice but to get up and follow him out of the tent and towards the front of the camp.

The further you go, the better the tents are. Some of the tents are even guarded by soldiers, which means the status of the people living inside must be higher.

Li Jingwan has already moved the knife into her sleeve. No matter who it is, if anyone dares to mess around, she will kill him.

The soldier led her to a completely white tent, lifted the door curtain and said, "Go in. The military advisor is inside."

Li Jingwan leaned forward slightly and walked in.

This tent was not only large, but also much better decorated than the previous one. There was a gorgeous carpet on the floor, which surprisingly looked simple and elegant in this desert.

There is even a screen in the middle of the tent, dividing it into two.

This is not like the style of the Xirong people. When Li Jingwan was looking around in confusion, a tall figure walked out from behind the tent.

As soon as she saw the man in the moon-white robe, Li Jingwan's heart skipped a beat.

He didn't look ugly or scary, but he was wearing a silver mask.

The mask covered his entire face, but a scar extending from his features could be seen on his jaw, and there were even two scars on his neck.

It is not difficult to see that this person's face is disfigured, so he wears a mask to cover it up.

"Girl, don't be afraid." The man spoke first, pointing to the low table next to him, "Please come and sit down."

His voice was deep and inexplicably convincing, but he spoke in standard Sheng Dynasty dialect, even with a Beijing accent.

Li Jingwan asked in a surprised tone, "You...you are from Sheng Dynasty?"

"It used to be." The man's answer was ambiguous, with a hint of melancholy in his voice.

He sat down first and picked up a teacup that was upside down on the low table. "Girl, come and have some water."

Li Jingwan had been locked up for most of the day and was already thirsty. Looking at the clear water poured into the teacup, she swallowed involuntarily.

But she didn't dare to go forward.

This is the territory of the Xirong people. This so-called military advisor looks mysterious, and she dare not trust anyone.

Seeing that she stood still, her face still alert, the man's voice had a slight smile.

"Miss Li, I won't hurt you."

Li Jingwan’s eyes widened instantly.

How did he know my last name? Could it be that he knew me?

"Who...are you?" Li Jingwan asked, constantly thinking in her mind whether she had ever had contact with this person before.

The result is no.

She was sure that this was the first time she had seen this person, either in her previous life or in this life.

The man's next words left Li Jingwan stunned.

"Miss Li, is my mother, Lin, doing well in Wu'an Marquis's Mansion?"

Li Jingwan was so shocked that she forgot to speak for a moment and just stared at him blankly.

impossible!

She shouted in her heart, how could he...how could he be Qin Chongxiao?

Qin Chongxiao is not dead!

But thinking that her brother was still alive, Li Jingwan felt that it was not impossible.

Both of them fell off a cliff, but they both survived!

Li Jingwan was excited. When she was about to ask him something, she heard the faint voice of Xirong outside the tent and immediately regained her vigilance.

This man might be deceiving her.

So, the words on my lips immediately changed to, "Do you know me?"

Qin Chongxiao saw the change in her expression clearly and knew that Li Jingwan was still doubting his identity. He secretly admired her for her strong sense of vigilance and quick reaction, so he spoke more clearly.

"You are Li Jingwan, the eldest daughter of General Zhenyuan Li Beiwang. You later married Qin Changzhou of Wu'an Marquis Mansion. And I am Qin Chongxiao, the son of the late Marquis Qin Maolin of Wu'an Marquis Mansion."

Li Jingwan still didn't believe it, "If you are Qin Chongxiao, but we have never met, how can you recognize me?"

"I have seen it." Qin Chongxiao confirmed, "Eleven years ago, in the capital camp."

The mask concealed his expression, but his eyes conveyed his memories.

"That day when you and Ding Zheng came to the capital camp, there was a civilian soldier who had just joined the camp on the parade ground. He was whipped by Shi Lin, the son of the then Minister of War. When no one tried to dissuade him, Miss Li, you stepped forward and argued with Shi Lin, saving the soldier."

Li Jingwan remembers this because she will always remember that day.

That very night, the news that his father had died on the battlefield reached the capital, and the Li family's life changed forever.

That afternoon, she accompanied her brother to the capital camp to look for one of her father's old subordinates, and encountered Shi Lin beating a soldier for no reason.

She was originally sitting in the carriage. Seeing the miserable appearance of the soldier, she got out angrily and scolded Shi Lin severely.

Shi Lin couldn't win the argument with her, so he could only give up and leave with his lackeys in disappointment.

"I remember that Miss Li, you not only helped him, but also gave a bottle of Sihuang Powder to the soldier."

"Were you there too?" Li Jingwan asked.

"Yes." Qin Chongxiao nodded, "Ding Zheng called your name later, and that's how I got to know Miss Li."

In fact, he was also ready to help at that time, but Li Jingwan was one step faster than him, so he stood aside and witnessed her cleverly resolve the crisis of Xiaobing and make Shi Lin promise not to retaliate against Xiaobing again in the future.

At that time, he didn't know her identity, but he admired what she did.

As a result, Li Dingzheng came and called her "elder sister".

He still remembers his mood at that time, first surprised, then delighted.

He had known for a long time that he and Li Jingwan were engaged, but he did not have high expectations for the marriage, as it was all arranged by the Marquis' Mansion anyway.

But when he saw Li Jingwan that day, she was a thousand times better than he had imagined, and he was very happy.

That day happened to be his ten-day holiday. After returning to the Marquis' Mansion, he had just accompanied Lin to have dinner in her courtyard when they were called to Fuhe Hall, where Qin Changzhou and his mother were also there.

Old Madam Qin said that the news from the northwest front had just been reported back to the capital, and Li Beiwang was shot and killed on the battlefield.

Li Jingwan will definitely observe mourning for three years. If so, Qin Chongxiao and her marriage will have to be postponed for three years, and it will be too late to get married by then.

Therefore, she hoped that Qin Chongxiao, as the eldest grandson, could get married as soon as possible and marry into another noble family that she had her eyes on.

As for the engagement with Li Jingwan, it will be fulfilled by Qin Changzhou instead.

He rejected this plan on the spot, saying that he was willing to wait for Li Jingwan to finish the mourning period, no matter how long it took.

At that time, Madam Qin didn't say anything else, and he didn't take it to heart, thinking that she just had a momentary thought.

Later he found out that Old Madam Qin had already made the decision and would never let him marry Li Jingwan.

The excitement he felt that day will remain in his heart forever.

And Li Jingwan's face was also engraved in his heart.

So when Li Jingwan was pushed into the tent by the Xirong soldiers, he recognized her at a glance.

So, in his capacity as a military advisor, he ordered his men to bring Li Jingwan into his tent.

"But...after such a long time, you can still recognize me?" Li Jingwan hesitated, still unable to believe it.

Even though her appearance was not much different from eleven years ago, she deliberately made herself look ugly every day in the manor. Qin Chongxiao only saw her once, but he was able to recognize her after so many years. Either his eyesight was too good, or there was another hidden story.

Seeing that she was still suspicious, Qin Chongxiao lowered his voice, "Miss Li, Ding Zheng and I were not killed by the Xirong soldiers, but by Qin Changzhou."

The news about Wu'an Marquis Mansion had long been spread throughout the Sheng Dynasty, and the news could also be heard in Xirong. Li Jingwan was unmoved, "This does not prove your identity."

"Did the person I sent to investigate my background go to the Marquis' Mansion to look for you?" Qin Chongxiao asked again.

Li Jingwan didn't answer, but her expression had relaxed a little, so Qin Chongxiao took a step closer and said.

"The night before I left the capital, my mother was drunk and accidentally revealed that I was not her biological son, but was brought here by a midwife in order to protect her title of Marquis of Wu'an."

This sentence completely dispelled Li Jingwan's concerns.

Because this was what Lin said to her personally, no third person knew about this matter, and it was not even mentioned during the Dali Temple investigation.

"Brother..." Li Jingwan was so excited that her voice was choked with sobs. She finally stepped forward and said, "It's really you..."

She always had a question, "Why did you let that person find me?"

Although Qin Chongxiao had met her, it was only once. Did he trust her so much?

Qin Chongxiao explained, "I had to leave for Tacheng the day after I learned the secret, so I couldn't investigate it myself. A year after I arrived in the northwest, I met a reliable friend. He happened to be returning to Beijing, so I asked him to send someone to help me secretly investigate my life experience."

"But the communication between the capital and Tacheng is very troublesome. I am worried about missing any news, so I asked him to send someone to personally hand over any important news to you."

"I know you will marry into the Marquis' Mansion after you finish your mourning period, so I hope you can learn the truth about the Marquis' Mansion's child swap as soon as possible and cancel your engagement with Qin Changzhou."

Wu'an Marquis's Mansion is full of deception and conspiracy, and he hopes Li Jingwan will stay away from it.

But without substantial evidence, he could not intervene directly.

As long as the Li family knew the inside story of the baby swap, they would definitely cancel the engagement.

So that's how it is. Li Jingwan was touched, but smiled bitterly, "But... it's too late..."

When the investigators came looking for her, she had already married into the Marquis's Mansion.

Qin Chongxiao couldn't help but sigh, "It's really too late..."

"But I am also relieved." Li Jingwan added, "I wonder if big brother has heard about the incident at Wu'an Marquis Mansion? I have divorced Qin Changzhou."

This time it was Qin Chongxiao's turn to be shocked.

"What happened? I am surrounded by people from Xirong and cannot reveal my identity. I don't know what happened in the Marquis' Mansion."

Li Jingwan made a long story short and briefly told him what happened in Wu'an Marquis' Mansion, and also brought him another good news.

"Brother, Ding Zheng is still alive."

"What?" Qin Chongxiao excitedly held her arm, "Where is Ding Zheng?"

"he is..."

Just after saying two words, a sharp and angry female voice came from the entrance of the tent, "Bitch, you're looking for death!"

Before Li Jingwan could turn around, Qin Chongxiao pulled her aside.

Then, a whip fell and hit the table, breaking it in two!

Li Jingwan was still frightened.

If this whip hit her, she would be crippled if not dead.

"Let go!" A savage voice sounded, filled with infinite anger, "Wu Di, you dare to flirt with other women behind my back, I must kill her today."

"Princess, you misunderstood." Qin Zhongxiao let go of her hand and suppressed his anger, "I was just talking to her."

Li Jingwan finally turned her head at this time and saw a very beautiful Xirong woman, dressed in red, like a ball of fire, full of vitality.

But just by looking at her temperament, you can tell that she must be very willful and domineering.

She raised her hand to whip again. Li Jingwan stepped back in fear. Qin Zhongxiao raised his voice, "Nagya, don't be unreasonable."

Nagya was furious, and she didn't whip him for the second time. She pointed the whip at Li Jingwan, and said with a hint of grievance in her tough tone, "I saw you grab her arm with my own eyes, and you still dare to lie?"

As soon as she heard that Qin Chongxiao had snatched a female prisoner from other soldiers, she rushed over and indeed discovered something fishy. "Is this the female prisoner from Sheng Dynasty that you specifically wanted to get?"

"She is not a prisoner." Qin Chongxiao said, "She was captured by your brother's men."

"You still dare to protect her?!" Nagya roared, "I told you that if you don't like me, you are not allowed to like anyone else."

From these few words, Li Jingwan realized that the princess had a one-sided love for Qin Chongxiao, so she hated all the women around him.

In order to survive, she quickly moved away from Qin Zhongxiao and said humbly, "Princess, you really misunderstood. The military advisor just asked me a few questions."

"What do I ask you for?"

"The military advisor heard that I came from the capital and wanted to ask about the situation in the capital." Li Jingwan thought of a reason in a hurry.

Qin Chongxiao cooperated and said, "Yes, I went to the capital many years ago. I don't know what the situation is like there."

Li Jingwan added, "Princess, I've been married for a long time, and I'm not good-looking, so why would the military advisor fall for me?"

After hearing this, Nagya's anger subsided a lot, and she snorted at Qin Chongxiao.

"If you want to know what's going on in the capital, I'll go with you."

It seemed as if for her, a princess of Western Rong, going to the capital of the prosperous dynasty was just a trivial matter.

Li Jingwan secretly sighed that this unruly princess seemed to like Qin Chongxiao very much.
