Chapter 1143 Remember? Don’t Admit It, No Matter What
In her dream, she was roasted by fire, in reality, Feng Yuheng burned up in a fever.
In the later part of the night, Wang Chuan was the first to notice the situation, quickly summoning the Hundred Herb Hall physician who stayed in the palace. That physician skillfully measured her temperate with a thermometer from the future era, and when he saw that the temperature had already reached 39.5 degrees, he immediately put her on a medical drip.
Feng Yuheng’s fever gradually dissipated under the effects of the medicine, but her consciousness was still dazed, and when she endured until day time which much effort and woke up, her first sentence was that of her asking Wang Chuan: “Did the hidden guards on the streets capture anyone back?”
Wang Chuan shook her head, “The hidden guards reported, there were people who went to follow that suspicious person, but Young Miss instructed not to chase after him, so they all returned and did not bring anyone back.” After saying this, she asked in confusion: “Young Miss, since the other party had already reared their head, why not pursue them?”
Feng Yuheng frowned, not willing to answer this question, and in fact, she was unable to answer, she could not tell Wang Chuan that it was because she was afraid that her secret would be found out.
Seeing that she was not willing to speak, Wang Chuan did not ask anymore, Masters would always have their own thoughts, they just have to follow them. But for this matter to torment Feng Yuheng this much, seeing that she was getting thinner and thinner every day, their hearts were in pain watching her.
“Young Miss.” Huang Quan remembering something, “This Servant went to Yao manor yesterday and I heard Eldest Madam say that Divine Doctor Yao can return from Xiao Province today, do you want to meet Divine Doctor Yao?” She knew that Feng Yuheng had a good and deep relationship with that Grandfather, maybe Divine Doctor Yao could ease her troubles and in the worst case scenario, he could examine her, he would always be much better than the physician from Hundred Herb Hall.
“Grandfather is coming back?” Feng Yuheng was very happy, “That is good! Keep an eye on Yao manor, once my Grandfather comes back, immediately invite him to Yu Palace, just tell him I have business with him.”
Once the pair heard that Feng Yuheng was willing to see Yao Xian, they felt happy and Huang Quan quickly agreed, then ran off, personally keeping a watch on Yao manor such that Yao Xian would be able to first come to Yu Palace at the earliest moment after returning to the capital.
And in fact, Yao Xian was still faster than Huang Quan, already entering the manor gate before Huang Quan arrived at the gate of Yao manor, making it in time for Yao family’s breakfast.
Yao family had always been harmonious, even though they were split into three families, their relationship with each other was very good. For breakfast, it was normally rare for someone to eat alone, they had to gather at the Flower Hall so that it would be lively eating together. Today Xu Shi even made an effort to prepare some new types of desserts, and some of them were specialities from Xiao Province, very different from the capital.
Yao Xin looked at these things and asked Xu Shi: “Eldest Aunt, why are you in such a good mood? For Xiao Province desserts, only you make them the best in our family, it’s rare for Eldest Aunt to personally cook early in the morning!” Yao Xin loved to eat the local treats from Xiao Province, but it was too much effort to make them, and only Xu Shi could make them well, so no matter how much he wanted to eat them, he did not feel it was right to frequently ask Xu Shi to make them just for him.
Seeing Yao Xin stretch out two claws and grab the desserts with both hands, Xu Shi shook her head helplessly: “Old Sixth is not young anymore, you should be discussing marriage, but you still have a child-like temperament.” After saying this, she sat down, sighing when she saw Yao Xian who just returned to the manor and spoke: “Father finally returned, I was thinking yesterday, if Father does nto return soon, we should send a letter towards Xiao Province.” Xu Shi did not move her chopsticks but spoke first.
“Did something happen at home?” Yao Xian ate and spoke to Xu Shi at the same time, he was not someone from this era, not having the rules of not speaking while eating. Eating and chatting at the same time was the most normal method of living in the 21st century. The people from the Yao family were used to it, even though they thought that Yao Xian in the past was not like this, when they first arrived in Xiao Province, their life was a little poor, so they could not spare any effort to follow many rules. Over time, these rules also became a waste, no one cared about them.
Hearing Yao Xian ask, Xu Shi nodded and said: “Something did happen, but it is not our manor, but with Ah-Heng.”
“Ah-Heng?” Once he heard that the issue was related to Feng Yuheng, Yao Xian put down the bowl and chopsticks immediately, and even the biscuit in his hands was ignored, asking anxiously: “What happened with Ah-Heng?”
Seeing Yao Xian like this, it was no good for the others to continue eating, Yao Xian originally planned to grab another piece of dessert, but he did not feel like it now as well, he opened his mouth without prompting and answered Yao Xian’s words: “Little Sister Heng seems to be searching for someone recently, turning the capital inside out, sending large numbers of people out every day to look, but it was said that she had not found that person yet.”
The Second Master Yao Jing Xiao said: “This is not the important part, we heard that Ah-Heng fainted on the streets yesterday, a hidden guard carried her back and even asked for a physician from Hundred Herb Hall. After we heard about it, we rushed over to take a look, she was still unconscious. The physician from Hundred Herb Hall only said that it was only the fire of anxiousness attacking the heart and it was nothing too serious. It is just that the source of her fire is unknown. It is entering winter now, the weather is very cold, and having practiced martial arts, how big must the fire be for it to attack her until she faints in the streets?”
Xu Shi also sighed and said: “That’s right! I heard the servants of Yu Palace say that Ah-Heng is unable to eat well, that’s why I thought of making some desserts from Xiao Province, seeing if a change in taste would cause her to eat a little more.”
Everyone spoke one after another, causing Yao Xian to feel that things were strange, but after asking more about it, the people of the Yao family could not describe anything concrete, not even knowing what person Feng Yuheng was looking for. Qin Shi said: “Eldest Sister-in-law and I went to the Yu Palace a few times, but we could not meet Ah-Heng, she is never in the palace, the servants said that she would basically be walking around the streets in the capital in the day.”
Yao Xian frowned and stood up, walking out without saying anything. The Yao family were surprised, quickly following behind him, Yao Jing Jun asked as he walked: “Where is Father going? Are you going to Yu Palace?”
Yao Xian nodded: “Instruct someone to prepare a carriage, making blind guesses at home is useless, I will go over there personally to take a look.”
“I will go with Father!” Xu Shi also caught up with him, “To deliver the desserts to Ah-Heng.”
Yao Xian thought about it for a while, but rejected Xu Shi’s suggestion: “No need, I can go alone, you can pack the desserts and I will bring them over, I will tell Ah-Heng that her Eldest Aunt especially made it for her. After hearing it, she should be able to eat some.” Yao Xian thought, it was likely that Feng Yuheng encountered some difficult situation, and since that issue could push her back this much, this meant it was not easy to solve. After so long, the people of the Yao family did not know what she was doing, this also told him that she did not want others to know what she was doing, so he could nto bring any other people over, he could only go on his home. He believed that no matter what Feng Yuheng encountered, she would not hide anything from her paternal grandfather from her past life and her maternal grandfather in her current life.
Once Yao Xian left the house, he encountered Huang Quan travelling towards him as she just arrived. The two of them conversed simply and Yao Xian boarded the horse carriage immediately and followed Huang Quan to Yu Palace, and when he saw Feng Yuheng, this was when he got a huge shock: “How did you cause yourself to end up in this state?”
Feng Yuheng had never looked this bad, she was so skinny that her eye sockets had sunken in, the area around were eyes were dark and her face was flushed, but that was not because her complexion was good, it was because of the night of fever. She sat on the mattress and looked at Yao Xian, obviously breathing a sigh of relief. Dismissing Wang Chuan and Huang Quan immediately, she grabbed Yao Xian’s hand anxiously and said: “Grandfather, what should I do, she has returned!”
“What did you say? Who returned?” Yao Xian did not understand what Feng Yuheng stand, pulling her hand away at the same time, “Regardless of what you want to say, let me examine your pulse first.” He pressed down on Feng Yuheng’s brachial plexus, and half a beat later, he frowned and said: “Your pulse is disorderly and lacking in energy, your body in lacking in yin. He shook his head as he spoke, “You are a physician yourself and you won’t even find some medicine to eat. Send me into the Space, I will take some medicine out for you!”
“No need, no need.” Feng Yuheng shook her head and was a little anxious, “Grandfather, my body is a small issue and I am aware of its condition, after eating some medicine later and recuperate for a while, it will recover, you do not need to worry. Listen to me, I encountered a troublesome issue recently, do you know? The original owner of this body of mine, the real Feng Yuheng, I…… I seemed to have seen her, she has returned!”
“What?” It was Yao Xian’s turn to feel shocked this time, “You’re saying that the Feng family’s Second Miss who died in the northwest mountains, she has returned? How did she return? Using what method? That person is already dead, could it be that her spirit returned? You dreamt of her?”
Feng Yuheng showed a troubled smile, “If I only dreamt it, then how minor would that be? Grandfather, think about us, after our death, we were able to borrow another person’s body to live another life, then, why can’t she do that? She returned personally, living in another body, returning to Da Shun’s capital. I had seen her twice, but she appears to have the intentions of hiding from me. Not only is she hiding from me, she was even with Bu Cong. Do you know about Bu Cong? The child of the Bu family in the past, the ex-army general of Da Shun. But the Bu family fell and he walked on the wrong path, then he went missing later. He has bounced back currently and actually came back together with that real Feng Yuheng. Grandfather, I’m really afraid, if all of this is found out, then, where should I go?”
Yao Xian finally understood why Feng Yuheng became like this, he also did not expect that the real daughter of the Feng family could also have an opportunity to live another life and even returned to the capital. What did she want to do? She wanted to claim back her body?
This was a question which was hard to solve, Yao Xian also did not know how to reply. In the end, he was the same as Feng Yuheng, hiding this secret in his heart. If the real Yao Xian returned one day, he would also have the face the same issue.
Grandparent and grandchild went into deep thought. After a long time, Yao Xian finally spoke again, he told Feng Yuheng: “Do not fear, since that person came together with Bu Cong, then, her words would not be trustworthy to Da Shun. People who stand on the opposing side of Da Shun, regardless of what they do, it will be wrong and contains ulterior motives. Based on the worst case scenario, all of this gets publicised, but what of it? Tell everyone, this is the opposing faction trying to sow internal chaos in Da Shun, creating an opportunity for their own side to obtain victory. If the people of Da Shun really believe it, then they will win, all of this is just them using underhanded methods to win. Either way, just follow one thing, never admit the truth! Have you, remembered it?”
