Chapter 349 The Legal Wife in the Concubine's Story 30
what?
Zhai Lingruo was a little confused.
It was not until later that she found out that the emperor had not handed the matter over to Zhai Heran.
To round it off, Zhai Heran did not get involved and thus escaped death.
In fact, Zhai Lingruo, who didn't know that Yan Heng was her boyfriend at first, also wanted to use the help of the commander of the Dragon Guard Division to provide a guarantee for her brother's safety.
After all, that jade pendant is also a favor.
"Reward." Yan Heng looked at her with an undisguised gaze.
"I'll talk to you when you come back." Zhai Lingruo took the initiative to hold him in her arms, "Finish it sooner and come back sooner."
Qingzhou.
The wind brought heavy rain down, and every inch of land on the mountain rolled down the steep slope under the impact of the rain.
The thatched house, which was already a bit dilapidated, was shaking in the mountain rain.
Rain drops from the roof fell on the woman in the house.
Li Xintang listened to the sound of rain outside and felt a little scared.
The rain is so heavy that I don’t know when it will stop.
She had arrived in Qingzhou some time ago. Li Xintang had originally wanted to live in the city, but now she had just escaped and was afraid that Jiang Huaiqing would find her, so she found a thatched hut in the mountains that had been uninhabited for a long time and lived in it.
She remembered a man she met when she first arrived in Qingzhou.
"Young master, buying snacks is a small matter that can be done by us servants. There is no need to trouble you to do it yourself." The servant followed behind Zhai Heran and said carefully.
The servants didn't quite understand why Zhai Heran came all the way from Cangzhou to Qingzhou just to buy the snacks that the young master's wife wanted to eat.
"You don't understand Youyou's taste. Besides, if I go to buy it myself, Youyou will definitely understand my feelings better..." As Zhai Heran said this, a woman suddenly appeared in front of him.
The woman looked dusty and had a pretty face, but she looked a little haggard.
"Excuse me..." Before he could finish his words, Li Xintang fell down.
She traveled almost day and night, not daring to slack off at all. She was already exhausted and was afraid that Jiang Huaiqing would catch up and take her back.
"Miss, Miss?" Zhai Heran quickly sent the person to the clinic.
The bitter taste of the herbs lingered around. The woman on the bed fluttered her eyelashes and opened her eyes dazedly.
"Girl, are you awake?" The doctor breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she was fine.
"Where is the man who brought me here?" She had not yet thanked him properly for bringing her to the clinic instead of abandoning her.
Maybe, maybe I could consider taking this man as my husband?
"Oh, you mean Young Master Zhai. He has already returned to Cangzhou." The doctor continued, "Young Master Zhai and his wife have a very close relationship. No one else can interfere."
He could see what the woman in front of him was thinking.
Li Xintang forced a bitter smile, paid for the medicine, and left.
For some reason, she always felt like she had missed something, as if that man shouldn't have that attitude towards her.
Nor will he marry.
The rain outside was gradually easing, and soldiers gradually appeared on the mountain to come and rescue.
"Girl, it's dangerous in the mountains. The rain may continue. Come down the mountain with us."
Li Xintang nodded, and she followed those people down the mountain.
Although Zhai Lingruo asked Zhai Heran to dredge the main river embankments in various places during this flood, she could not resist a natural disaster.
Days of heavy rain will wash away the mud and rocks on the mountains, and the accumulated silt and water will block the river embankment. However, compared with the original plot, the casualties caused by the floods are reduced.
However, the court still needs to send disaster relief officials to dredge the river embankment while the rain gradually subsides.
"This time, the higher-ups sent the commander-in-chief and Lord Jiang." People around were talking.
But when he mentioned the commander, the man lowered his voice involuntarily, and was trembling slightly.
Li Xintang in the crowd noticed the three words "Lord Jiang".
The panic in her heart filled her limbs, making it hard for her to breathe. What should she do? Jiang Huaiqing actually followed her here.
If he found me here, I would definitely be taken back by him.
He would take her as a concubine, and she would be tortured to death by his wife.
The most dangerous place is the safest place. Li Xintang gritted his teeth and looked towards the mountain where the thatched hut was.
"Hey - little girl, where are you going? That's up in the mountains! It will be dangerous if it starts to rain."
Passersby were shouting loudly, but Li Xintang ignored them and never gave up even after falling on the muddy and slippery mountain road.
The rain started to fall again.
Passersby who wanted to stop Li Xintang also stopped and could only watch Li Xintang run up the mountain.
Jiang Huaiqing, who came to Qingzhou and couldn't find Li Xintang for a long time, couldn't help but doubt whether the news was wrong.
He looked down at the group of disaster victims, scanning their faces one by one, but there was no face he wanted to see.
Someone whispered quietly, "I don't know why Miss Li just ran up the mountain like crazy, and we couldn't stop her."
Jiang Huaiqing immediately stepped forward and grabbed the person who was speaking by the collar.
"What does the Miss Li you mentioned look like?"
The rain was getting heavier, causing mud and rocks in the mountains to slide down and hit the dilapidated thatched hut.
Beijing.
The floods in several states of Qinghuai were perfectly resolved under the command of the commander-in-chief, but the other one who was sent to Lord Jiang was missing, whether alive or dead, and his whereabouts have not been found to this day.
Bai Fu looked at Zhai Lingruo worriedly, who seemed fine.
Her good friend had a very miserable life. After marrying into the marquis's mansion, she was treated harshly by the old lady. After her husband finally inherited the title of marquis, the old lady was paralyzed in bed and unable to move.
After all the hard work, there was happiness. However, no one expected that Jiang Huaiqing would get into an accident and his life or death was unknown.
"You don't have any children either. I'm afraid this huge mansion will fall into decline." Bai Fu comforted her, "You are still young. You can divorce and find a good family. You don't have to live in this empty mansion."
Zhai Lingruo pursed her lips and said nothing.
In Bai Fu's eyes, it seemed that her good friend was hesitating.
"Lingruo, don't worry about not being able to find a good family. Our Bai family also has unmarried young talents. I will introduce them to you when the time comes."
"Uh-huh."
After Bai Fu left, Zhai Lingruo blew the whistle.
A familiar figure appeared in front of her.
"Did you do what happened to Jiang Huaiqing?" Zhai Lingruo looked at him expressionlessly.
"It's unfair, madam. I didn't do anything." Yan Heng said innocently.
But there was a smile in his eyes.
This matter really had nothing to do with him. He just let someone reveal that the mistress was on a dangerous mountain. Jiang Huaiqing went up there risking his life, and he couldn't joke with the lives of his subordinates and other rescue workers, right?
If Jiang Huaiqing wants to die, then let him die. It would be best if he died in there, so that Ling Ruo will become a widow and can marry someone else.
