She loses if she divorces, the reborn mistress only divorces her husband
Chapter 131: The Day of Proposal, Embroidering Sachet
When Bai Yiyi brought the news, Zhu Gaozhi was anxious to take people to rescue Li Jingwan, but was stopped by Xiang Mingfang, who asked him to wait for Chu Tingyu's decision.
Zhu Gaozhi's eyes widened angrily, "Your Highness, those bastards from Xirong are capable of anything. If Miss stays a little longer, the danger will increase."
"As long as you give the order, my brothers and I in the escort agency will rescue the young lady even if it costs us our lives."
But Chu Tingyu's words silenced him.
"Do you know where your eldest daughter is being held?"
"I..." Zhu Gaozhi really didn't know, "At worst...At worst I can just rush in and arrest the person and ask him."
Chu Tingyu disagreed. "There are several factions in Xirong, and any of them could capture Miss Li. If we find the wrong person at the beginning, it will definitely alert others."
"Besides, we need to be more cautious when we go to Xirong Country to rescue people. If we go there without general intelligence, we will die in vain and harm Miss Li."
"I was reckless." Zhu Gaozhi said ashamedly, "Please give me your instructions, Your Majesty."
Chu Tingyu pondered for a moment and said, "We will split into two groups."
"I'll take people to the place Bai Yiyi mentioned to investigate and find out which faction of the Western Rong cavalry kidnapped Miss Li."
"Coach Zhu, you and Butler Xiang go to Baijiazhuang to bring Ding Zheng back. Remember, don't make any noise. You can also bring Ding Zheng's adoptive father back to Tacheng and say that you are here to help Ding Zheng treat his illness."
Xiang Mingfang said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I know what to do."
He was always calm and steady in his work, so Chu Tingyu was not worried. "In order to lure out the person behind the assassination of Miss Li, I have fabricated the illusion that Miss Li was murdered, so you can't tell anyone about it."
Therefore, the search for Li Jingwan must also be carried out in secret.
"Your Highness..." Xiang Mingfang was a little worried, "If the news gets back to the General's Mansion, Madam..."
If Yao didn't know the truth, wouldn't she be heartbroken?
"Don't worry, I'll ask Han Feng to tell Madam Yao the truth after returning to Beijing."
Xiang Mingfang was relieved, "Your Majesty is very considerate."
After the agreement, although it was still late at night, they did not dare to delay and set off immediately.
The sound of hurried horse hooves rang out in the market, and soon it returned to calm.
On the afternoon of the third day, Chu Tingyu returned to the Northwest Camp.
Although he hadn't slept for almost two nights, there was no sign of fatigue on his face.
After entering the commander's tent, Lufa put down the map in his hand and immediately asked, "Your Majesty, have you found out the whereabouts of the county lady?"
Chu Tingyu nodded, his face grim, "It was Wu Shilie's men. They kidnapped the county lady on their way back from robbing the village."
"These damned beasts!" Lufa was so angry that he slammed the table heavily. "They came to our court to burn, kill, rob, and kidnap the county lady. I must kill these bastards."
"Your Majesty, what do you need me to do? I will personally take someone there right away."
Chu Tingyu had already made a plan on his way back, "General Lu, the situation is tense now, you should stay in the army and command. I will take people to Xirong to rescue the county lord."
"Your Majesty, this is absolutely impossible." Luva said hurriedly, "You are of noble status, it is too dangerous to enter Xirong, I..."
Chu Tingyu raised his hand, signaling him not to say anything more.
"The spies said that Wu Shilie led his troops to train in Reduo, which is close to our border, so they crossed the border to rob and escape."
"I estimate that the county lady has been imprisoned in Reduo since she was captured. I will enter Xirong in disguise and bring guards with me, so don't worry."
"I brought the county princess to Tacheng. Her safety is naturally my responsibility." There was a coldness in Chu Tingyu's eyes, like ice that had been frozen for ten thousand years.
Luva was secretly surprised by his momentum.
He was sure that this young and powerful prince would make anyone who hurt Li Jingwan pay a heavy price.
After the agreement, Chu Tingyu explained some important matters and then rushed back to Tacheng City without stopping.
Li Dingzheng had been brought back and placed in his mansion.
When Chu Tingyu returned home and entered the inner courtyard, he saw Xiang Mingfang, who was standing outside the room, with red and swollen eyes, obviously from crying.
"Where is Ding Zheng?" Chu Tingyu asked.
"The eldest young master is in the room, and Doctor Xu is taking his pulse." Xiang Mingfang's voice was hoarse with sadness, "The eldest young master has lost a lot of weight and suffered a lot... He already... has forgotten everything."
Although Bai Yiyi had told him about Li Dingzheng, he couldn't help crying when he saw with his own eyes that the son that General Zhenyuan once valued the most, the proud and noble eldest master of the Li family who he had watched grow up, had become what he is today.
He was happy that the eldest master was still alive, but also sad about his current situation.
"As long as we are alive, there is hope. Everything will be fine." Chu Tingyu felt bad for his friend and whispered, "No one knows, right?"
"No." Xiang Mingfang shook his head. "I followed your instructions and brought the young master's adoptive father back. He is also in the room now, accompanying the young master to see the doctor."
As he was speaking, Xu Rui pushed open the door and walked out carrying a medicine box.
He and Li Dingzheng were old acquaintances, and it was rare for his face, which usually always had a smile on it, to become serious.
"Doctor Xu, how is my eldest young master?" Xiang Mingfang asked hurriedly.
"Fortunately, Ding Zheng is lucky and has a good physique. His physical injuries have almost recovered. It shouldn't affect his future life if he recuperates for a while. It's just that his brain..."
Xu Rui paused, "When he fell off the cliff, his head must have hit a rock or some other hard object. I guess there was blood clot in his brain, which caused his amnesia and affected his reactions in some aspects."
"Can the blood stasis dissipate?" Chu Tingyu asked.
"It's hard to say." Xu Rui sighed, "Head injuries are the most troublesome. The blood clots may disappear one day, or they may never disappear."
Chu Tingyu's expression changed slightly.
If they don't separate, won't Li Dingzheng never be well for the rest of his life?
Xiang Mingfang was so frightened that even his voice changed.
"Doctor Xu, please save my young master. He is still so young. You were able to cure Lin when she was poisoned and went crazy. I'm leaving my young master's injury in your hands..."
"Poisoning is different from head injuries caused by collisions..." Xu Rui said. Seeing their worried expressions, he didn't want to disappoint them, so he said, "But there is still hope."
"I asked the farmer, and he said Ding Zheng's condition has improved over the past two years. He can remember things and his ability to take care of himself is close to that of an average person. From this point of view, the blood stasis should be slowly dissipating."
"I will treat him for a while. If he still doesn't get better, I will take him back to Medicine Valley. My master and uncle should be able to help."
Chu Tingyu felt relieved and said solemnly, "Xu Rui, thank you for your help."
Xu Rui smiled, "Your Highness, don't worry, Ding Zheng is also my good friend, I will do my best."
Because of the presence of the cow tenant, Li Dingzheng's mood was relatively stable.
Xiang Mingfang asked the cattle tenant to come out and let Chu Tingyu in.
As soon as he saw Li Dingzheng, a sour feeling immediately rushed into his nose.
He still remembered how high-spirited Li Dingzheng was in his memory.
They once stood on the top of the mountain and talked about their ideals and ambitions, and planned the future together.
At that time, he had no doubt that Li Dingzheng would take over Li Beiwang's mantle and become an indispensable Northwest General of the Dasheng Dynasty.
But now Li Dingzheng is thin, has a strange look in his eyes, and is on guard all over. In terms of temperament, he is almost a completely different person from before.
Chu Tingyu suppressed the sadness in his heart and gave a kind smile.
Before coming in, Xu Rui reminded him that Li Dingzheng was very defensive and he must appear to have no ill intentions.
"Ding Zheng, do you still remember me? My name is Chu Tingyu." He softened his voice, "We are comrades, we fought together, and we guarded the border of Sheng Dynasty together."
Li Dingzheng stared at him for a long time without responding. Instead, he turned his head to the side, his hands on the table still clenched into fists, obviously wary of him.
Chu Tingyu lowered his voice, "You fell off the cliff and lost your memory. Doctor Xu said that you will get better slowly, and then you will remember me."
Li Dingzheng said nothing.
Chu Tingyu stayed silent with him for a while.
He had more important things to do, "Ding Zheng, I'll go find your sister and bring her back to see you."
"Do you still remember your sister?" Chu Tingyu remembered Bai Yiyi's name for Li Jingwan, "Xiao Wan, she is your elder sister."
This sentence finally made Li Dingzheng react, "Xiao Wan..."
He turned his head slowly, with a hint of confusion in his eyes, "She said... to come back... to see me..."
"Yes, she was going to pick you up, but she was delayed." Chu Tingyu said, "But I will bring her back."
His voice lowered again.
"Do you remember what you said five years ago when we were on night patrol together?"
He didn't expect Li Dingzheng to answer, but he always remembered it.
"You said you regretted that your sister didn't marry me. If I were your brother-in-law, you wouldn't worry about her having a bad life and being bullied."
Li Dingzheng looked at him blankly.
Chu Tingyu suddenly laughed. Although his voice was soft, it sounded resounding in the room.
"You don't have to worry about it in the future. I will make up for your regrets."
It is also his regret.
When the rebellion on the northwest border subsided, that was the day he proposed to Li Jingwan.
-
Ever since Nagya said she wanted to learn the manners and behaviors of the women of the Sheng Dynasty, Li Jingwan has become busy.
When Nagya heard her say that the daughter of a wealthy family in Sheng Dynasty was good at playing the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, she ordered Li Jingwan to teach her as soon as possible.
"Princess, these are not things that can be learned in a short time." Li Jingwan said tactfully, "They all require hard work."
If she really wanted to be taught, she would have to stay for at least several years before leaving.
Nagya raised her eyebrows, "Why, do you think this princess is too stupid to learn?"
Li Jingwan had no choice but to ask someone to prepare everything.
Soon, she found that her worries were unnecessary because Nagya gave up even faster.
"What's so fun about these things?" After two days of learning, Nagya smashed the piano, chopped the chessboard, and finally threw away the brush. "I don't want to learn anymore. I'm so bored."
"If I had the time, I might as well go for a horseback ride."
Li Jingwan finally felt relieved.
But soon, Nagya had a new idea, "I heard that women in your Sheng Dynasty would sew things for their lovers. What do they usually give?"
"They are all small things." Li Jingwan said, "Scented sachets, jade pendants, things like that."
"Then teach me how to sew a sachet." Nagya quickly selected her target, "I want to sew a sachet for Wudi so that he can wear it every day."
Li Jingwan felt that this one was more difficult to teach her.
"Princess, I...I'm not very good at sewing, and the things I sew don't look good."
Nagya didn't believe it. "You women in Sheng Dynasty know how to do it. Don't bluff me. Teach me quickly."
There was no other choice, Li Jingwan had to go ahead with it.
Nagya asked her to sew a pattern first, and Li Jingwan sewed her favorite orchid.
Nagya was watching from the side, her chin propped up, her brows furrowed deeper and deeper, with great disgust, "This is different from what I've seen before. Why is it so ugly?"
Li Jingwan said helplessly, "Princess, I'm not good at it."
"It seems you didn't lie to me."
Nagya looked at her suspiciously, "You sew so poorly, doesn't your husband mind?"
"Princess, the rules for women in Sheng Dynasty to get married are different from those in Xirong." Li Jingwan put down her needlework, "Our marriages are all decided by our parents, we have no choice. As the saying goes, 'parents' orders, matchmaker's words.'"
"Wouldn't that mean you would marry a man you don't like?"
Li Jingwan nodded, "Yeah, it happens often."
"You are willing to do that?" Nagya was surprised. "If I am asked to marry someone I don't know and don't like, I would rather not get married."
"Princess, there are many things that we cannot do as we wish."
"The women of the Sheng Dynasty are so miserable that they can't marry the one they love. Anyway, I won't be willing to do that. I will only marry Wudi."
Li Jingwan blurted out, "Princess, since marriage in Xirong requires mutual consent, even if you are willing, but Wudi Military Advisor is unwilling, it is actually a kind of coercion..."
Seeing Nagya's expression change, Li Jingwan quickly shut up.
"What do you mean?" Nagya said angrily, "Do you think Wudi will never like me?"
"No, no." Li Jingwan shook her head reluctantly.
Nagya said angrily, “Wudi just doesn’t like me now, but he will definitely be with me in the future.”
"Yes, yes, yes." Li Jingwan nodded repeatedly. For the first time, she realized how servile she was. "Princess, you are smart, beautiful, and... considerate. The Invincible Military Advisor will definitely like you."
"Why don't you teach me how to sew the sachet now?" Nagya glared at her fiercely. "As long as Wudi doesn't agree to be with me, you can't leave."
Li Jingwan didn't dare to say much and immediately started teaching her how to thread the needle.
After sewing for most of the day, and with Li Jingwan's repeated encouragement and persuasion, Nagya finally gritted her teeth and finished sewing a simple sachet.
There is a bow and arrow on the sachet.
This was the simplest thing Li Jingwan could think of, so she coaxed Nagya into sewing a bow and arrow that was most suitable for her identity as an invincible military strategist.
However, the arrows of the bow and arrows sewed by Nagya were crooked and the bow and arrows were unbearable to look at.
Li Jingwan complained silently. She finally met someone whose embroidery skills were worse than hers. At least she looked pretty good at sewing the bow and arrow her first time.
But Nagya was very satisfied. The more she looked at it, the more she liked it. "Wu Di will definitely like it. Let's go and give it to him now."
So, Li Jingwan put on a mask and followed her to the camp again and went straight to Qin Chongxiao's tent.
