Chapter 16 — In Rebirth, My Sister Stole My Cold-Faced Husband

I brought up all the clues of my previous life that I remembered——of course, under the name of “dreams”. Bui Nghien Chi is in charge of internal investigation. Ta Lam Uyen is in charge of coordinating the military side. The strange thing is, the two people who previously did not see eye to eye with each other, when faced with politics, they cooperated unexpectedly well. When Bui Nghien Chi left, he stopped at the door for a step.

“Thank you, General.”

“Your wife——protect yourself well.”

Ta Lam Uyen hugged my shoulder and smiled.

"I don't dare to bother Young Khanh Bui's concern."

Bui Nghien Chi nodded, turned and left. His back is still straight. It's just that my steps are a little heavier than when I arrived. Ta Lam Uyen stopped by and asked me: "Is it like that every time he leaves?"

"How?"

“It's like carrying the whole world on your back.”

“……probably so.”

“What a pity.”

“Luckily she didn't marry him.”

“……Ta Lam Uyen, can you please stop saying annoying things right now?”

"This is not a joke, it's a sincere statement." He turned me around, held my shoulders with both hands, "you are right to marry me."

“Based on what?”

"Rely on me knowing how to cook fish."

“The fish you cook can be deadly salty.”

"So I'll learn! Sooner or later I'll be able to cook a perfect fish!"

I looked at his serious expression and sighed.

“Okay, I'll wait.”

He chuckled twice, then gently kissed my cheek.

“Tsk——” in the corner of the yard came the sound of Quy An and Thanh Hoa simultaneously inhaling air.

“Look at what!”

The two people quietly disappeared behind the corner of the wall. In early spring of March, Bui Nghien Chi's investigation made substantial progress. Thai Thuong Khanh Khanh Lord Phuong is indeed "Thanh Loan". He stood behind King Qi, secretly building an underground network for ten years—not only communicating with the barbarians, but also controlling several important trade routes, earning huge profits. King Qi was just a chess piece that he pushed in front of him. As for Tham Minh Chau, he is just a pawn of a pawn. What makes people's spine even more chilling is that——in my previous life, my death was also related to Master Phuong. Bui Nghien Chi found a secret letter: that year Lord Phuong instructed Tham Minh Chau to "eliminate the danger next to Bui Nghien Chi" - that danger was me. Because we have seen the words "Thanh Loan" on the profile. Even though I didn't pay attention at that time, Lord Phuong didn't dare to bet. Therefore——in the previous life, that bowl of poisonous soup was not Tham Minh Chau's own idea, but Lord Phuong's order. The truth at this point is enough to make everyone's spine cold. Bui Nghien Chi held those evidences and held court with Lord Phuong. The old man, Phuong, refused to act, even at court denied everything, and even criticized Bui Nghien Chi for "fabricating evidence and framing court officials". The royal court was as noisy as a pot of boiling water. The Crown Prince leaned towards Bui Nghien Chi. But Master Phuong has been experienced in the royal court for many years, and his power is deeply rooted. Even the Queen Mother… was on his side. The situation is tense. Right at this moment, Ta Lam Uyen took action. He sent someone to escort the barbarian leader back from Northern Cuong—alive. The barbarian leader at court personally recognized Lord Phuong, and at the same time revealed all the transaction records for ten years. Lord Phuong's face instantly turned white as paper.

“It's impossible——I gave those notes You've destroyed everything!”

“The person you destroyed was a copy.” Ta Lam Uyen stood in the middle of the hall, wearing silver armor, "the original has always been in the hands of the barbarian leader. Do you think he will keep your secret? He just wants to expose you in exchange for a way to live."

Master Phuong trembled all over. The Emperor pounded the table: “Check! Check it out for me!” On the fifteenth day of the third month, Master Phuong passed away from his family. In his "Lien Dai" villa, tens of thousands of taels of gold, hundreds of secret letters, and an extremely detailed list of underground networks were searched. The names on the list——King of Qi, Trieu Nguyen Bach, several local governors, deputy generals of the Ministry of Infantry——all fell into the net. The underground network collapsed after ten years. In this case, Bui Nghien Chi is the leading prosecutor, Ta Lam Uyen is the secondary prosecutor. For the first time—and the only time——the two of them stood side by side in front of the emperor to receive an award. The Emperor gave Bui Nghien Chi the sign "First sentence in the world". Granted Ta Lam Uyen the title of "General Tran Quoc". From then on, Ta Lam Uyen was no longer "a promiscuous young man" in the mouth of the people of the capital. He is Tran Quoc general Ta Lam Uyen—god of war in Northern Cuong, pillar of the court, confidant of the Crown Prince. As for me——I am General Tran Quoc's wife. Three years later. September 9th. Cinnamon flowers bloom. Ta Lam Uyen sat at the stone table in the yard, tilting his head and pasting his fourth paper tiger. Promised one child every year, the first child will be followed by the bird's nest. Workmanship is still very poor.

"Look, I've glued this beard five times." He held up the crooked paper tiger for me to see.
