"Alright, let's take them to the capital first, and discuss the rest later."
Ye Jinhu didn't want them to lose the will to live.
That woman could hit the rock once and then try to kill herself a second time.
He wanted to dissuade them from their suicidal thoughts.
Ye Jinhu got angry when he thought that these women were about the same age as his daughter.
These people's parents are utterly inhuman.
Ye Jinhu continued to coax Jiang He and the prince to sit down.
Although the kidnappers were all apprehended, no one was in high spirits.
They won, yet it felt like they didn't win.
In this world, it is already difficult for women to survive, and now these ten people have been forced to the brink of despair.
It wasn't their fault that they were kidnapped, but ultimately their families caused them the most harm.
The two grown men drank their wine in silence.
They were both thinking of the same person.
Jiang Chuwei!
"Your Highness! We must descend the mountain at dawn tomorrow; you still have to rush off to be the groom!"
Jiang He seemed afraid that Lin Muheng would forget.
Lin Muheng smiled.
How could he possibly forget?
He had been waiting for this day for more than a decade.
He waited for her for more than a decade after their first encounter in the palace when they were children.
Even after she got married, he still hadn't given up on her.
Now that Wei'er has finally divorced, the General's Mansion has lost its former power under the Emperor's suppression.
He could finally marry her.
"Um!"
"Your Highness! After you marry my sister, you must treat her with utmost devotion and never let her be heartbroken."
Jiang He used the phrase "wholeheartedly," which speaks to what high expectations he had!
In this world, it's perfectly normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines. How dare he make such a request?
"Mm!" Lin Muheng responded.
Jiang He suddenly stood up: "Your Highness, do you know how heavy the weight of this promise is?"
"Yes, I promise you. In this life, I will not want anyone but Wei'er. I will be devoted to her and there will be no one else in my heart."
Lin Muheng solemnly agreed.
Jiang He was speechless.
When he said this, he never considered that the Prince of Yu would actually refrain from taking multiple wives and concubines for the sake of his sister.
He just wanted a promise from the prince that he would treat his sister well.
Unexpectedly, the Prince of Yu gave him a big surprise.
He wouldn't have dared to say that before.
However, after the bandit suppression, Jiang He greatly admired the character of Prince Yu.
He was certain that the prince wouldn't be angry if he asked for a promise on behalf of his sister.
Little did he expect that the prince would give him such a big surprise.
"Your Highness! This marriage alliance is very important to you. Are you really willing to give up all the forces you can win over for the sake of your sister?"
Jiang He still couldn't believe it.
“Wei’er has three older brothers: a mighty general with an army of 300,000, a scholar who is also a champion in both civil and military affairs, and a father-in-law who was once invincible. Such assistance is enough for me; any more would be a burden.”
Lin Muheng said it casually.
Jiang He immediately replied, "Yes, yes, Your Highness is right. My eldest brother is now guarding the Northwest, and is the pillar of Daqing. My third brother and I will strive to become pillars of Daqing and a solid support for Your Highness. Your Highness, please rest assured that your marriage to Wei'er is your greatest asset."
"Yes, elder brother is right," Lin Muheng said with a smile.
Jiang He murmured, "Big brother..."
Yes, now he's going to be the prince's brother-in-law. Aren't all those spoiled brats green with envy?
Jiang He was so happy he almost jumped for joy.
*
Early in the morning, just as dawn was breaking.
As the fire gradually died down, Lin Muheng sent people into the cave to check. After confirming that everything was alright, he led everyone away from the place.
Lin Muheng went to the palace and reported the matter to the Emperor.
Black Panther was imprisoned in the Dali Temple jail.
Lin Muheng didn't believe that Black Panther would travel thousands of miles to kidnap a few people just to get revenge on him.
He suspected there must be some unknown conspiracy involved!
