The Return of the King: A Generation of Prodigies

Chapter 331 The inexplicable peach blossom

Although Wang Yunzhiren woke up, his physical condition was still very weak.

In this situation, Wang Yunzhi can only have a good rest, but as long as he wakes up, the rest of the things will be easy.

Shen Tingzhi was afraid that Wang Yunzhi would be emotional when he saw him, so after learning that Wang Yunzhi had woken up, he did not go in, but just stayed at the door and listened to the situation inside.

"Go call General Wang over. He's been wondering if Prime Minister Wang has woken up."

Shen Tingzhi stepped out of the door, turned around and ordered the guards around him to call Wang Zongyuan.

The guard received the order and went straight to Wang Zongyuan's house.

But when they arrived at Wang Zongyuan's house, they did not see Wang Zongyuan, but only saw the clothes he had taken off.

The guard who noticed something was wrong did not dare to delay and immediately ran back to inform Shen Tingzhi.

When Shen Tingzhi heard that Wang Zongyuan was missing, his heart sank. He was afraid that Wang Zongyuan would get into trouble.

Although Wang Zongyuan is not young anymore, he still has the heart of a child.

Now she is afraid of him and feels like playing around, so she goes to find Mrs. Jin to cause trouble.

"Quick, call Yu Po over."

The guard turned around and ran out, bringing Yu Po with him.

"Second Young Master, what happened?" Although the guard did not tell Yu Po what happened, Yu Po had already realized the seriousness of the problem from his attitude.

"Put aside Madam Wang's affairs for now and go find Wang Zongyuan."

Shen Tingzhi, who has always been steady, was a little panicked at this time. Now the Huguo Temple might be full of spies from the Western Rong people. If Wang Zongyuan was discovered, the matter would be difficult to handle.

"Yes." Yu Po turned around and left without asking for the reason.

Huguo Temple is so big that finding someone is like looking for a needle in a haystack. It is really not easy.

Yu Po also went back to her room to dress up before going out to find Wang Zongyuan.

Her original appearance was too eye-catching and she would be easily discovered.

Yu Po walked around the temple, but there was no trace of Wang Zongyuan.

She wandered around and finally came to Mrs. Jin's residence.

Looking at Mrs. Jin's residence, Yu Po became suspicious. Knowing that Mrs. Jin was a Western Rong person disguised as a woman, Wang Zongyuan must have other thoughts.

Yu Po had also been in the Northern Frontier for several years, so she had some understanding of Wang Zongyuan's personality.

This great general was extremely brave in battle, but in private he was like a naughty boy, very curious and liked to get into trouble.

Even at his age, he had often been scolded by the Marquis of Zhenbei for causing trouble.

At this time, the man disappeared, and he changed his clothes when he went out. It was very likely that he came to Mrs. Jin to find out what happened.

It's no wonder that the second young master is so anxious. This guy is a man who dares to cause any trouble. If he stirs up a hornet's nest with Madam Jin, it will end badly.

Thinking of this, Yu Po couldn't help but become anxious. She now only hoped that Wang Zongyuan was not here. Even if Wang Zongyuan was here, he would not be discovered and cause a big disaster.

Yu Po looked at Mrs. Jin's residence anxiously, wondering what method he should use to get in and find out what was going on.

Just when Yu Po was worrying about how to get in, he suddenly felt a chill on his back, as if someone was staring at him.

Yu Po turned around and met Yin Shuang's cold gaze with a hint of hatred.

This made Yu Po tremble involuntarily. She really couldn't understand where Yin Shuang's inexplicable hatred towards her came from.

Yu Po has a very good memory. As long as she has met someone, she will definitely have an impression of them and will never forget them.

But what she was very sure of now was that she had never seen Yin Shuang before, so she couldn't understand why Yin Shuang had such strong hostility towards her.

This hostility was not new. When she took the female doctor to treat Mrs. Wang, she felt that Yin Shuang was unfriendly towards her.

While Yu Po was confused, he also blamed himself for being careless. He should have been cautious and careful when investigating the situation. He panicked and lost his composure.

Now that I've been caught red-handed, I have to find an excuse to get away with it, otherwise I'll be in trouble.

Then Yupo turned around and walked in front of Yinshuang, bowed and called out, "Miss."

"What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be guarding Madam Wang at this time?

Not only did Yin Shuang's eyes look cold, her voice was also frighteningly cold. The coolness from her body could freeze people.

"Yes, I was supposed to be guarding Madam Wang, but she hasn't woken up yet. My master is worried, so he asked me to ask the young lady what medicine she gave her when she treated her."

"After asking clearly, the doctor can prescribe the right medicine to avoid violating taboos and making Madam Wang's condition worse."

At this time, Yu Po could only use Madam Wang as a shield. Apart from this reason, she really couldn't think of any other reason to deal with it.

"Humph!" Yin Shuang snorted coldly and said, "Why, is he afraid that I will poison Madam Wang and kill her?"

"Am I such a disgusting person in his heart?"

Yu Po never thought that the excuse she made up would cause Yin Shuang to misunderstand.

And from Yin Shuang's tone, it seemed that she was expressing her dissatisfaction with her second young master, which was really strange.

When did her second son end up getting involved with such an icy beauty?

That's not right. Although the second young master is handsome and a suave man, he is a very self-disciplined person and has never been involved with women.

Although he has not married yet, when he was in Ganzhou, countless young ladies from prominent families were scrambling to be with him, and some were even willing to lower their status and become his concubines.

But he never gave them a chance and rejected them one by one.

Could it be that Yin Shuang was also one of the rejected ones, and because of being unable to get the love she wanted, she became angry and ashamed, so she became like this?

That's not right. Yin Shuang is a Western Rong person. There is absolutely no way that the Second Young Master can be related to her.

However, in just a few seconds, Yu Po imagined a big drama in his mind.

If Shen Tingzhi knew what Yu Po was thinking, he would probably die speechless.

"Miss, you misunderstood. My master didn't mean anything else. He was just worried about Madam Wang's injury."

"Because the new female doctor doesn't understand the situation, I was asked to ask the young lady what medicine she gave Madam Wang."

"I'm doing this just because I'm afraid the medicine the female doctor uses will conflict with the medicine the young lady uses, and if Madam Wang takes it, she might suffer harm."

"Hmph! That's a nice thing to say." Yin Shuang still looked cold, but told Yu Po what she wanted to know.

"Go back and tell him that what I gave Madam Wang was a life-saving pill that is rare in the world."

"This medicine is extremely precious, and not everyone is worthy of it. Madam Wang can take it only because I gave her a favor."

"If I wanted to harm Madam Wang, I would do it openly and honestly, and I would never use any despicable means."

The more Yu Po listened to Yin Shuang's words, the more he felt something was wrong. It seemed that the girl in front of him really had some unknown past with the second young master.

I must go back and ask the second young master immediately to avoid any misfortune or disaster.

"Thank you for telling me, young lady. I will go back and report to my master."

"When Madam Wang wakes up, my son will come to thank her."

Yu Po bowed her head and saluted Yin Shuang. She wanted to leave this place of trouble as soon as possible.

After paying his respects, Yu Po turned around and left without waiting for Yin Shuang to say anything else. It didn't matter whether he found Wang Zongyuan or not now. He would go back and find a way to find out what was going on here.

Yu Po hadn't taken two steps when Yin Shuang called her back, "Wait, go back and tell him that my name is Yin Shuang, not Miss."

Yu Po's heart started beating fast when he heard this. What on earth was this Xirong girl trying to do?

Although she was puzzled, she still had to follow proper etiquette, so Yupo replied, "I will tell my son what Miss Yinshuang said when I get back."

Yu Po hurriedly left this dangerous place.

After returning to the courtyard, Yu Po went to find Shen Tingzhi. Although this matter was Shen Tingzhi's private matter and Yu Po should not interfere, it was a special period after all, so it was better to be cautious.

"Second son."

Shen Tingzhi, who was concentrating on looking at the Huguo Temple topographic map, heard Yupo's voice and looked up and asked, "So soon, did you find the person?"

"No, I came back because I'm confused about something, and I wanted to take the liberty to ask the Second Young Master."

It was wrong to inquire about Shen Tingzhi's private affairs, so Yu Po was cautious, neither right nor strong, for fear of angering Shen Tingzhi.

Although Yu Po has never seen Shen Tingzhi lose his temper with her in all these years in the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion, it is very likely that she will make an exception and become the first one.

"Hmm?" Shen Tingzhi looked at Yu Po in confusion, not knowing what she was going to do. This girl had been a very steady person since she was a child. He didn't know what she wanted to say to him so seriously at this moment.

"Just ask whatever you want to ask." Although Shen Tingzhi didn't know what Yu Po wanted to ask, he could guess from her expression that it was a serious matter.

"I'm sorry." If I apologize before asking, the Second Young Master won't be so angry later, right?

Thinking this in his heart, Yupo asked, "Second Young Master, are you familiar with that Xirong medical girl from yesterday?"

"What?" Shen Tingyi didn't understand what Yupo asked for a moment, "Am I familiar with the Xirong medical woman from yesterday?"

Shen Tingzhi frowned and said, "Who told you this? How could I possibly be familiar with her?"

"It was my first time meeting her yesterday, and she kept covering her face. I didn't even know what she looked like, so how could I possibly be familiar with her?"

"Besides, she's from Xirong. I've never even met her before, so how can you say we're familiar with each other?"

If the person who asked this question was not Yu Po, Shen Tingzhi would really doubt his intentions.

"Second Young Master, please don't be anxious. I have a reason for asking this."

Although Shen Tingzhi still looked calm, Yu Po could already hear from the tone of his voice that he was unhappy.

"I was ordered to inquire about General Wang's whereabouts and accidentally walked into Madam Jin's residence."

"I happened to run into the same female doctor from yesterday. I was afraid she would doubt my motives, so I lied and said you asked me to ask her what medicine Madam Wang had taken yesterday so that the new female doctor could treat her."

"But the words she said and the meaning she expressed seemed very familiar to you."

"Also, her cold and condescending demeanor doesn't seem like the attitude a female doctor should have."

"Before we parted, she asked me to come back and tell you that her name was Yin Shuang."

"There's something wrong with the way it's been pouting, so I came back to ask you about it."

After hearing Yu Po's words, Shen Tingzhi was petrified. He himself didn't understand what was going on.

Apart from following the Marquis of Zhenbei to the battlefield in the northern border in his early years and coming into contact with some Western Rong people, he has never come into contact with any Western Rong people since then.

Moreover, the Western Rong people he encountered on the battlefield were all men, and there could be no women among them.

Now, after listening to Yu Po saying that, that Xirong female doctor seemed to be very familiar with him, and she also wanted Yu Po to tell him her name, how could Shen Tingzhi not be confused?

"Yinshuang." Shen Tingzhi shook his head and said, "I've never heard of this name before, so how could I know her?"

"I just found it strange, so I took the liberty to ask you."

"Looking at her, she really seems to be very familiar with you, as if you are an old friend who has known you for a long time."

What Yu Po didn't dare to say was that Yin Shuang seemed not only familiar with Shen Tingzhi, but probably also had more feelings of admiration for him as a man and a woman.

Even if she didn't care about matters of love between men and women, Yu Po was still a girl after all. She could clearly feel Yin Shuang's hostility towards her, probably because she misunderstood the relationship between her and Shen Tingzhi.

Yu Po also noticed that when Yin Shuang talked about Shen Tingzhi, although the expression on his face did not change, there was tenderness in his eyes.

It's like the look on the face of a young girl in love, talking about her beloved.

No one knew where their second young master had gotten into such a romantic relationship that someone chased him all the way from Xirong to Yunli.

Although I cannot tell the Second Young Master about this matter, I still have to inform the Queen later, so that the Second Young Master won't be led around by the nose like a fool.

It would be troublesome if we suffer losses in the future.

Shen Tingzhi thought for a long time, then shook his head and said, "I really don't know her, but since she has such unusual behavior, we should be careful."

"Send more people to keep an eye on her. Not only should we keep a close eye on Madam Jin's every move, but we should also keep a close eye on Yin Shuang."
