Then, her heart fluttered slightly.
Yun Shu felt her pulse.
From her angle, she couldn't see Zhan Tianye's suddenly deep dark eyes.
Her pulse showed nothing unusual.
"There's no major issue. The leg pain might be due to the recent change in medication. Detoxification is imperative, the sooner the better," Yun Shu concluded after a diagnosis.
Zhan Tianye knew very well whether his leg truly ached or not. He concealed his thoughts entirely beneath his calm, handsome face.
He nodded, "Alright."
Elder Master Qin always heeded Yun Shu's words, believing everything she said was right. He immediately urged Zhan Tianye, "Hurry and find someone to marry! Yes, marry the mother of the two children first."
Yun Shu glanced quickly at Elder Master Qin.
Zhan Tianye raised his eyes and looked quietly at Yun Shu.
Yun Shu's gaze made Elder Master Qin feel somewhat bewildered. "Uh, is something wrong?"
Yun Shu shook her head. "Nothing's wrong, but the children's mother cannot resolve the poison."
Elder Master Qin slapped his forehead in realization. "Right, right, right! How could I forget!"
Zhan Tianye's dark eyes instantly turned cold and dim.
Dark as an endless night.
"Auntie Yun Shu, I'll go to the General's mansion to find Xiao Jing first," Zhan Xiao Li said, feeling anxious that his mother didn't want to marry his father. Suddenly, he had an idea.
He wanted to see Xiao Jing.
And he also wanted to see his maternal grandfather.
Gu Xiao Feng also wanted to go with his mother.
But, who was Xiao Jing?
Yun Shu thought that there shouldn't be anything else today. She also wanted to talk to her two sons. If Zhan Tianye wasn't present, it would be even better.
Thinking this, she turned to Zhan Tianye and said, "I'll take Xiao Li and Xiao Feng to visit the General's mansion. I'll bring them back before dusk, is that alright?"
Her tone was formal and cold.
Zhan Tianye's heart stirred.
Just as he was about to agree.
Suddenly, Jing Heng arrived.
He came to Yun Shu and whispered a few words.
Yun Shu frowned slightly, looking at Zhan Xiao Li and Gu Xiao Feng with regret.
"Xiao Li, Xiao Feng, I have some urgent matters to attend to, so I can't take you to the General's mansion to play for now. I'll pick you up from the Prince of Night's mansion in the next couple of days, and we'll go out to play beyond the city, alright?" Yun Shu said softly to them.
Originally, when they heard they couldn't go to the General's mansion, they were very disappointed.
But then, when they heard their mother was going to take them out to play, their eyes suddenly lit up with joy.
"Play?" they asked almost simultaneously, their bright starry eyes blinking.
Yun Shu smiled and nodded, "Yes, I know a place outside the city where there are flowers all over the mountains and plains. We'll bring some delicious food for a picnic, how about that?"
The two little ones nodded in unison.
Yun Shu looked at their expectant faces and suddenly felt a surge of happiness.
Later, she would bring Yun Xiao Jing, and the four of them, mother and sons, would have a good day out.
Zhan Tianye listened to Yun Shu's promise to his two sons and slightly moved his thin lips.
She hadn't included him.
Then, Yun Shu left.
Zhan Xiao Li and Gu Xiao Feng were very reluctant to see Yun Shu go.
They only looked away after Yun Shu had disappeared from sight.
Elder Master Qin sighed, "Young Miss Shu truly loves children! It's no wonder, Xiao Li and Xiao Feng are such lovable children. You three father and sons shouldn't leave today, stay here for dinner."
Zhan Tianye, who had intended to leave, was about to refuse when he heard this.
Elder Master Qin gave him a sideways glare, "If you want to leave, then leave. These two will stay and keep me company! It's bad enough that you're not filial, but you don't want your two sons to be filial to me? I'm an old man, all alone and pitiful, aren't I?"
"Grandfather, didn't you just invite a troupe of actors to perform yesterday?" Zhan Tianye directly exposed Elder Master Qin's newly donned tragic mask.
Other old men his age might not know how to alleviate their sorrows.
But his grandfather certainly did.
His grandfather had more ways to entertain himself than young people.
His true colors exposed, Elder Master Qin was embarrassed and annoyed. "Brat, get lost! I don't have enough time to dote on Xiao Li and Xiao Feng. You brat, the more I look at you, the more annoyed I get. Get lost, get lost! Stop being an eyesore."
Zhan Tianye left, leaving behind Zhan Xiao Li and Gu Xiao Feng.
Gu Xiao Feng looked at Elder Master Qin. He liked him very much.
Because although Elder Master Qin scolded people, his words were always filled with concern.
Zhan Xiao Li, taking advantage of Elder Master Qin's inattention, said coldly, "Stay away from Auntie Yun Shu in the future."
"No!" Gu Xiao Feng gritted his teeth.
She was his mother.
He hadn't officially acknowledged her yet, but she was his mother!
Zhan Xiao Li's small face turned cold.
Elder Master Qin bent down and lifted both of them, one in each arm. "Come, I'll take you to play! Your great-grandfather has lots of fun things here, guaranteed many that you've never seen before! Your father is very boring, why not play with your great-grandfather more!"
Zhan Tianye watched as Elder Master Qin walked away with the two little ones.
He withdrew his gaze.
Frowning, he said to Qiu Lu behind him, "Do you think Jing Heng looks familiar?"
"Familiar?" Qiu Lu was stunned.
"Does he resemble the person who appeared at the back door of the Han residence that day?" Zhan Tianye asked.
Qiu Lu suddenly realized and nodded repeatedly, "He does! He looks so much like him!"
"I suspect Yun Shu might be the miraculous physician," Zhan Tianye said in a deep voice.
There were no such coincidences in this world.
He had always felt something was amiss.
Now, it seemed that as long as she was the miraculous physician, then everything would make sense.
How many more secrets did Yun Shu hold?
"Good heavens! Second Miss Yun might be the miraculous physician? This..." Qiu Lu was shocked. If this news spread, many people probably wouldn't believe it.
Even he himself was somewhat skeptical now.
"We'll find out soon," Zhan Tianye said slowly.
...
In a residence.
Yun Shu and Jing Heng jumped over the wall and entered directly.
There was no one in the courtyard.
Jing Heng went straight to the door and asked, "Where is he?"
The next moment.
A person rushed out of the room swiftly.
He was afraid that if he was a moment too late, his life would be forfeit.
"Coming, coming, coming," Lu Hao said to Yun Shu with a fawning smile.
Jing Heng's expression was blank. He detested people who smiled so slyly. "What business do you have with the master?"
Lu Hao's expression changed rapidly, and he immediately put on a mournful face, almost crying. "Save me! Second Miss Yun, please save me! If I can't think of a way to satisfy the Regent, he'll kill me! I feel like he suspects me!"
After speaking, his face was already full of grievances.
Jing Heng's face grew colder. "A man of seven feet, yet afraid of death?"
Lu Hao was stunned for a moment, then blinked. "Shouldn't one be afraid of death? I'm so young, I'm not married yet, and I still want to improve my medical skills. These wishes haven't been fulfilled, and I'm not willing to die! I haven't lived enough."
Jing Heng's face became as cold as ice.
Yun Shu asked in a clear, cold voice, "What happened? Tell me from the beginning. If I don't understand, you can go and die."
