My husband is cold and heartless, we are reborn and divorced

Chapter 175 "Can relieve wrist pain..."

After entering Fu Yan's study, Jiang Wan sat on the Arhat bed beside him. After releasing the strength from his arms, Jiang Wan rubbed his wrists.

Fu Yanben went to the long table to get the letter, and looked up to see Jiang Wan rubbing his hands.

There is a palace lantern on each side of the Luohan bed, emitting a dim warm light, and a folding screen with a painting of pine and cypress is placed behind it.

The beautiful lady with picturesque features has a lazy look, and seems to blend into the painting behind her.

The incense burner was curling, the candlestick was fluttering, and Fu Yan passed by the small flat-top desk where books and official documents were stored.

Yu took an ivory-carved medicine jar from the antique bookshelf on the wall.

Standing in front of Jiang Wan, he opened the medicine jar.

He placed the letter on the table in the middle of the bed, half-knelt in front of Jiang Wan's legs, stroked the ointment with his slender fingertips, circled it twice, held her wrist, and began to rub it slowly.

"This is made from Notopterygium wilfordii and Millettia reticulata. It can relieve wrist pain."

Fu Yan was still rubbing his hands, but the person in front of him pulled away heavily. He raised his eyes, and the person in front of him took the medicine jar from his hand and put it aside, "I'm fine, just tell me what's going on."

Fu Yan rubbed his fingertips against each other, feeling the remaining warmth.

Then he nodded slightly.

Jiang Wan picked up the letter he had just placed on the table, "Is this for me?"

"Yes."

Fu Yan put his palms together and pressed them together, then sat down next to Jiang Wan, with only a small bed table between them.

His eyes slid across Jiang Wan's brows as he read the letter carefully.

Jiang Wan slowly frowned.

There was no reason for Fu Yan to lie to himself, so this must have been written by Wu Linghou himself.

In the previous life, dad didn’t come back until five years later.

When he came back, his face was sunken, his hair was white, and his pupils were cloudy.

Like an old man in his octogenarian years.

His days as a spy in Western Chu must have been extremely difficult, which is why he died of a serious illness just one year after returning to Beijing.

At that time, Wu Linghou was fighting against Western Chu. Dayun received information that there was a Western Chu spy hidden in the military camp, who designed to kill all the Yun Dynasty army. Their commander-in-chief was missing. Some people suspected that he had been beheaded by the Western Chu people, while others suspected that he was afraid of death and escaped alone.

It was also for this reason that Wu Linghou was insulted by everyone and was said to be unfit to be a general and a shame to Dayun.

In fact, when Wu Linghou realized that there were spies from Western Chu in the military camp and that it was beyond saving, he resolutely decided to let the other soldiers evacuate, leaving only him and the Jiang family army to defend and attack.

However, they did not expect that while they were being escorted away, there was a person who was quite trusted by Marquis Wu Ling, who was a spy from Western Chu. He deliberately took the remaining soldiers and took a detour back after the people sent by Marquis Wu Ling to escort them left.

As a result, Western Chu won a great victory in this battle.

But Wu Linghou knew that it was too late to save the situation.

As soon as he knew about the Western Chu spy, he immediately sent a secret letter to the palace at full speed.

The decision to hide in Western Chu for such a long time was made after conspiring with the emperor.

Therefore, after being captured by the people of Western Chu, Marquis Wu Ling, with the permission of His Majesty, revealed some secret information that did not cause any serious harm to Western Chu.

Although Western Chu did not completely trust Wu Linghou.

But his life was not harmed for the time being, he was just locked up.

Later, Dayun and the Kingdom of Jin jointly sent troops to attack Western Chu.

Western Chu was defeated repeatedly, and Wu Linghou came up with strategies.

The only time Western Chu won a major victory was when the two countries attacked together.

The King of Western Chu received Marquis Wuling.

Marquis Wu Ling was imprisoned in the Western Chu prison for a year.

The only time he saw the light of day, he cried bitterly in front of the King of Western Chu and expressed his willingness to be used by Western Chu.

After consultation with his ministers, the King of Western Chu decided to temporarily employ Marquis Wuling.

Wu Linghou was given the rank of a military officer in the Marshal's Office. Although the rank was not high, he was still considered an official of Western Chu.

With this identity as a cover, Wu Linghou cried and smeared Dayun.

Although Wu Linghou often gave advice to Western Chu, he was unable to get into its secrets because the king of Western Chu was still a little wary of him.

One year, the common people of Western Chu pooled their money to renovate an ancestral hall and donated a plaque.

Marquis Wu Ling donated all his salary to the ancestral hall.

He requested that the plaque in the ancestral hall must be engraved with his name and official rank.

The reason why he engraved his name on the plaque was to allow other spies to obtain his movements. He had been lurking in Western Chu for three years, and other spies had also infiltrated during this period.

But I can't contact him.

With this ancestral hall, other spies would be able to obtain his movements and have the opportunity to contact him secretly.

This ancestral hall became the place where he exchanged information with other spies of Dayun.

Marquis Wu Ling continued to lurk in the military camp, waiting for an opportunity to strike.

Another two years passed, and the Western Chu court recruited tens of thousands of refugees to go to the north to open up wasteland and cultivate land.

At this time, Wu Linghou volunteered to train this group of farmers under the banner of helping the imperial court.

This is a thankless job, and no one is willing to do it except Wu Linghou.

He received widespread support from court officials, but there were also some who opposed him, as they felt he had ulterior motives since he was, after all, a member of Dayun's clan.

But his colleagues did not agree with him. If he did not go, someone else would have to go, but no one was willing.

Therefore, they explained for him, saying that he had been here for six years and was just a small military officer during this period. He did not participate in the opportunities for advancement. If he really had any ill intentions, he should work hard to move up.

How could he be content to be a small military attaché who couldn't get in touch with the center?

There were many different opinions in the court, but those who agreed with his going prevailed.

The King of Western Chu thought that his decision to go north to train the refugees was also for the benefit of the country and the people, and that what he had done in recent years was also beneficial to the people of Western Chu.

Just when the King of Western Chu wanted to appoint him to go north.

Wu Linghou took the initiative to avoid suspicion, saying that if he went north, everyone would be dissatisfied, which he absolutely did not want to see.

Wu Linghou was unwilling to go again, not only did he not lose the opportunity.

Instead, it made the King of Western Chu and his court officials trust him even more.

Less than half a month later, Marquis Wu Ling applied to be an official in a small place.

During this period, he was very honest and did not behave in any strange way.

The suspicions of the people of Western Chu were completely dispelled.

In just two years, he was promoted several times and was appointed Youtongzhilang.

During this period, he had been collecting intelligence and using the ancestral hall to submit the intelligence.

When he had completely gained the trust of the King of Western Chu, Marquis Wuling instigated the King of Western Chu to unite with the Kingdom of Jin and the Northern Kingdom to attack Yun. The Northern Kingdom and Yun did not border each other, so in fact the benefits would be for both Western Chu and Jin.

With the support of the King of Western Chu, Marquis Wuling returned to the battlefield.

This move brought great suffering to the people of Western Chu and caused widespread resentment among the people. The royal family of Western Chu was obsessed with money and indulged in pleasure, and most of the Western Chu soldiers were unwilling to fight and die.

This allowed Wu Linghou to fight on the battlefield and become an indispensable general of Western Chu.

Later, they joined forces with the northern kingdom to attack the Jin Kingdom. The king of Western Chu believed that as long as Marquis Wu Ling was there, Western Chu would be able to live in peace.

I will obey Marquis Wu Ling in everything.

When the ministers reported that the Jin invaders had invaded Western Chu, the king of Western Chu not only did not believe it and did not take any precautions, he also killed the minister who reported it, causing no one to dare speak out.

After this incident, many loyal ministers of Western Chu banged their heads against pillars, and most of them died.

The rest are mostly those who are afraid of death and love life.

It was also for this reason that Marquis Wu Ling was able to lead his troops in a rebellion and end his more than ten years of hiding.

And now is the time for Marquis Wu Ling to request to be an official in a small place.

And that place is exactly the one closest to Dayun.

As for why Wu Linghou appeared here, Jiang Wan had no idea.

But being able to write letters is definitely an important thing.

It was not until Jiang Wan finished reading the letter that she realized that her father was writing to express his sincerity to the King of Western Chu.

He and an important official of Western Chu disguised themselves as people from Yun Dynasty and entered the territory of Yun Dynasty to secretly store military rations.

The Western Chu army was strong, but its food supplies were scarce, not even a quarter of Dayun's. They never dared to fight a protracted war.

Jiang Wan suddenly thought of what happened in the previous life.

The people of Linzhou were suddenly struck by plague, and it was eventually discovered that the water in the fields of Linzhou was poisoned.

In the previous life, this case had not yet been solved, but now it seems that people from Western Chu were most likely involved.

Jiang Wan was shocked and his heart was beating rapidly.

Daddy must not know about this, so she must tell him about the plot of the Western Chu minister.
