Jiang Mingwei spoke urgently with a solemn expression and her eyes filled with panic.
Jiang Mingjin parted his lips slightly and patted the back of her hand, understanding her panic.
"Mingwei, do you know something?"
Jiang Mingwei nodded solemnly, and then recounted her experiences from a few days ago to Jiang Mingjin.
Jiang Mingjin looked at her in astonishment, unable to believe what she had experienced.
He quickly grabbed Jiang Mingwei's arm and looked her up and down.
She asked urgently, "You've been arrested? How could this happen? Why didn't anyone notify me? Hua Cui didn't mention it to me either!"
"If I had known, I would have definitely tried to find someone to rescue you. Did that person hurt you? Are you alright now?"
At this moment, Jiang Mingjin finally looked like a true older brother.
Jiang Mingwei felt helpless.
Although she believed that Jiang Mingjin was genuinely unaware, since it was difficult to publicize her disappearance, she could only investigate secretly.
But now, isn't she standing perfectly fine in front of Jiang Mingjin?
Isn't it obvious whether something is good or bad at a glance?
But why is this person acting like a fool, constantly asking questions?
Jiang Mingwei pouted and looked up at him coldly.
"I am naturally fine. If I were in trouble, why would I be standing in front of you now?"
Jiang Mingjin was taken aback, and then realized that he seemed to have worried too much.
She quickly let go of Jiang Mingwei, a fleeting look of embarrassment on her face.
"I'm sorry, Mingwei, I was just worried and didn't think of anything... Anyway, I'm just glad you're alright!"
"It's not about whether I'm alright or not anymore, that's not important. What's important is that Nanjing is really in big trouble."
Jiang Mingwei emphasized her words again.
Although she was an outsider, the original owner of this body was born in Nanjing and naturally had a deep affection for this land.
What's more, the person she likes also lives here.
Therefore, Jiang Mingwei does not want anyone to be easily dragged into hell because of the dispute between the two countries!
The doctor's wife and daughter serve as the best warning.
Driven by revenge, he was able to remain hidden for so many years, and even almost brought down the entire Jiang family!
This shows just how unimaginable the cruelty of war is; even decades of appeasement have not been enough to make him let go of his hatred.
If it were the other way around, wouldn't the people of Nanjing also hate the people of the northern frontier?
“I have taken everything you just said to heart. Whether it’s the collusion between spies between the two countries, the incense, or anything else you’re worried about, I will try my best to prevent it from becoming a reality.”
"Don't worry, I believe in you!"
In the past, Jiang Mingjin would never have believed anything Jiang Mingwei said, but now he had no choice but to believe her.
His expression was serious, and he spoke with great conviction, showing no sign of joking with her.
As the Minister of Personnel, he was in charge of the appointment and transfer of officials, so this matter was indeed within his purview.
If any of the officials in the court were truly involved with the incense, they would surely defect to the Northern Frontier in order to obtain a sufficient supply of spices!
By then, Nanjing will be in grave danger, so he must change everything.
Hearing how much he trusted her, Jiang Mingwei felt a little more at ease.
Had Jiang Mingjin become so compliant and obedient to her, no longer contradicting her words or opinions, and with such a gentle demeanor, Jiang Mingwei felt that perhaps she shouldn't have consulted Wei Jing at all, but should have come directly to Jiang Mingjin instead...
“I’m truly pleased that you think this way.”
After discussing the matters that needed attention, Jiang Mingwei followed Jiang Mingjin back to Li Yihuan's side.
After taking the antidote, Li Yihuan's health is gradually recovering, but she has inexplicably begun to worry about her brother and sister.
Only when Jiang Mingwei and the other person returned safely did his heart finally settle down.
She quickly got up and sat down at the head of her bed, where her hands were held tightly by her.
Looking at himself, his eyes were filled with worry and anxiety.
"Mingwei, are you alright? Did your brother have a fight with you? If so, can I apologize to you on his behalf? But don't blame your brother; he probably didn't mean it!"
"You don't know... he really misses you a lot at home. Your sister-in-law didn't lie to you on purpose to make you two reconcile. Everything I said is true!"
Her words carried a hint of pleading, as if she feared Jiang Mingwei might turn and leave without a word.
Fortunately, she soon saw Jiang Mingwei smile, with a small dimple on her face.
His eyes sparkled as he looked at her.
"His health hasn't even recovered yet, but you're worrying about him all day long. This... is really not the behavior of a responsible husband!"
Li Yihuan was taken aback. She was about to explain that it wasn't like that when she realized that there was going to be another misunderstanding between her and her brother!
Before she could even speak, Jiang Mingjin, who was standing to the side, touched her nose shyly.
"That's not the case, Yi Huan knows it in her heart. I do everything very well every day, but when it comes to things related to you... I might need her to find a way to help me."
"In that case, you should treat your sister-in-law even better. She has worried herself sick. If it weren't for her acting as a link between us, we might not know so much about the truth today!"
Jiang Mingwei spoke with certainty, and Jiang Mingjin nodded in agreement.
Li Yihuan looked back and forth between the two of them with a shocked expression.
After a moment, she asked with surprise, "Weiwei, you and your brother..."
Before he could finish speaking, Jiang Mingwei smiled and nodded.
Although her relationship with Jiang Mingjin hasn't completely reconciled, at least she's stopped speaking with barbs.
This is, after all, progress!
If we maintain contact more in the future, things should get much better.
After all, Jiang Mingjin has adopted an extremely humble attitude today.
He apologized to her, took her to find out the truth, protected her, and then unconditionally trusted her, even offering to help her investigate the matter of the tamarisk.
Even if you don't care about the monk, you should consider the Buddha's feelings. Since he has made such a promise, it doesn't seem right for Jiang Mingwei to keep showing a long face, so she simply compromised.
"Don't worry about me anymore, my dear sister-in-law. Your most important thing right now is to take good care of yourself and give birth to a healthy baby!"
"I've reconciled with my brother, but he's misunderstood me for so many years, and I'm not going to swallow this insult so easily! From now on, I might order him around quite often, I just hope you won't feel bad for me, sister-in-law!"
After saying that, Jiang Mingwei blinked. She was clearly joking.
Li Yihuan chuckled and nodded vigorously.
"Since he's your brother, you can order him around as you please. I don't care!"
