Upon hearing this, Jiang Ming's eyes widened, and he strode towards the camp exit, with Murong Xue quickly following behind...
"Husband, who is trying to kill my wife?"
Jiang Ming didn't say anything and went straight to the outside of the camp.
"Master! Something terrible has happened!"
Qiaohong saw Jiang Ming and immediately knelt down, anxiously saying, "Jin Feng is going to kill Madam! Master, hurry back and save her!"
Murong Xue didn't recognize the name Jin Feng, so she quickly asked, "Who is Jin Feng?"
"She came to our house?"
"No, she sent someone to fetch the eldest daughter... it was the old lady's steward, and a few dim-witted maids..."
Jin Feng summarized the situation for Jiang Ming: "Master! I suspect Jin Feng is planning to ambush the caravan halfway, eliminate all these thorns in her side, and frame someone else... I've already had Madam keep them calm, and then I'll come and inform you as soon as possible!"
"Good girl! You've done a great job!"
After Jiang Ming finished speaking, he turned to Murong Xue and said, "Xue'er, please take care of Dugu Yan for me. I have things to do at home, so I'll go back and put out the fire first!"
"Don't worry, my husband!"
Murong Xue nodded seriously: "But who is this Jin Feng? Why would she want to harm Madam?"
"Just a filthy bitch..."
Jiang Ming frowned and said, "Alright, while I'm away from the two major tribes, you will represent me in handling all matters within the tribe. I'll be back as soon as I'm done!"
"Husband, should we bring troops?"
"No need, the Yan army is enough!"
......
After saying that, Jiang Ming led his several hundred personal guards and, together with Qiao Hong, quickly returned to Chenjia Village.
When he arrived at Chenjia Village and saw that his eldest sister, second sister, and Nanxiu were all safe and sound, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Master!"
The younger sister threw herself into Jiang Ming's arms and sobbed, "What should we do next? Waaah! We can't afford to offend the Prefect's wife... Waaah!"
"Brother-in-law...please take me and my sister away! We dare not stay in Chenjia Village any longer, sob sob!" The second sister rushed over and hugged Jiang Ming, bursting into tears.
"Alright! It's nothing!"
Jiang Ming sighed and hugged his two wives to comfort them, saying, "It's all my fault. I've been so busy with the war at the front that I've neglected you... Well, you'll be fine once you move into the military camp."
"The head of the household..."
Chen Damei asked in horror, "Then... what if the Prefect's wife's first plan fails, and she comes up with another one to harm us? What if she whispers in the Prefect's ear and takes away your military power...?"
"hehe......"
Jiang Ming smiled faintly: "No, don't worry, this kind of thing will never happen again!"
"elder brother!"
Nanxiu said worriedly, "How about we send my sisters-in-law and me to the Xianbei? After all, these are all soldiers from the county, and my sisters-in-law are still worried about us..."
"hehe......"
Jiang Ming smiled slyly, thinking to himself, "My sister really knows how to kill two birds with one stone."
He wanted to see Murong Lie, and since it was convenient, he decided to go to the Xianbei people.
"Not for now!"
Jiang Ming declined, saying, "Let's wait a while. I'll take you there in a while..."
After settling things at home, they detained the servants from the prefectural governor's office who had come to fetch Chen Damei.
Jiang Ming spurred his horse and led his personal guards back to Dukang County at top speed.
......
Dukang Commandery, the prefectural governor's office.
Although Jin Feng's arrangements were flawless, she was actually quite flustered inside.
She worried that Jiang Ming would take his anger out on her because of his wife's murder...
After all, if she hadn't invited Chen Damei to her home, Damei wouldn't have "gotten into trouble"!
However, he was a ruthless and vicious person.
We always focus on the principal contradiction!
As long as her rival is dead, Jiang Ming will have no choice, and her status in his heart will naturally rise!
Jin Feng repeatedly reassured herself and eagerly awaited the report from her subordinates.
However, it was almost midnight and no one had returned to report the news, which made her start to worry, fearing that something bad might have happened.
Just as she was lying in bed, tossing and turning, the bedroom door was suddenly pushed open!
This gave Jin Feng a huge fright!
You should know that the servants would never dare to enter the house like that, and neither would Ji Bochang!
Who is this? How dare they do this?
"Who...? Ah!"
Upon seeing that the person who entered was Jiang Ming, Jin Feng's eyes widened in surprise, and feeling guilty, she instinctively hid behind her.
"Tsk! Baby..."
Jiang Ming stepped forward and hugged her tightly, asking, "What's wrong? It's been a few days... why are you even scared of me? Don't you love me anymore?"
Jin Feng's mind went blank for a few seconds. Seeing that Jiang Ming seemed completely unaware, she pouted, tears welled up in her eyes, and burst into tears, her face full of grievance...
"Sweetie, be good!"
Jiang Ming hugged Jin Feng and kept comforting her, "I'm so sorry! I heard you were injured, but the battle at the front was so intense that I couldn't get away and didn't have time to come back to see you. As soon as I had a spare moment, I rushed back!"
"Didn't you go home first?"
"Ouch!"
Jiang Ming kissed her cheek: "My heart is filled with you, how could I care about going home?"
