Chapter 94: Coveting Her

"The boss behind Baofeng Bank is the eldest prince, the King of Qi." Ye Tingxiao told Du Wanwan about the identities of several princes in Wei. "I gave the banknote to the prince. I'll just ask him to check it out."

Du Wanwan frowned: "A powerless and moneyless King Qi actually opened a bank? Don't you think it's strange?"

"It's a bit strange." Ye Tingxiao agreed with Du Wanwan's statement, "But the head of Baofeng Money House is the Lin family in Kyoto. They are a noble family without any power. How can they open Baofeng Money Houses all over Wei?

There is also a Baofeng Bank in the county town, but it is not big and is not on this street."

"You can investigate these things slowly in the future. I have something important to tell you." Du Wanwan told Ye Tingxiao everything about the gang of bandits they encountered in Yefengling and asked him, "That good-looking man escaped. Can you guess who he is based on my description?"

Ye Tingxiao lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said uncertainly: "If I'm not mistaken, that person should be Jin Wenhao, the sixth prince of the Northern Kingdom. It is said that he has a gentle face and likes to wear white clothes. He grew up in the Wei Dynasty and even learned martial arts from the people of the Wei Dynasty."

Hearing this, Du Wanwan narrowed her eyes slightly and began to recite word by word: "Bei, Guo, Liu, Huang, Zi, Jin, Wen, Hao? I know why he disappeared."

"Why?" Yetingxiao asked anxiously.

Du Wanwan looks very pretty with her slightly squinted eyes, and is extremely intelligent. Even though she is wearing a men's shorts, she still exudes an alluring charm.

She is courageous, intelligent, quick-witted and has a thorough understanding of things, which fascinates Ye Tingxiao.

The reputation of Kyoto has been ruined. If the reputation of the county town is ruined as well, no one will want to marry him in the future.

very good.

From now on, I will belong to her alone.

Du Wanwan was only thinking about her own affairs and didn't realize that Ye Tingxiao was coveting her.

"Someone saved him, and this person is someone familiar to us. I don't think of anyone else except Huo Qingxiang."

"Huo Qingxiang?" Ye Tingxiao's mind immediately formed an impression. "You are right. Huo Qingxiang has met Jin Wenhao. She is determined to climb up the social ladder. If there is such a good opportunity, she will definitely not miss it."

"Yes, that's right." Du Wanwan was relieved immediately. "No wonder she followed the people from Dujia Village back that day. I thought she knew she was wrong and felt sorry for the villagers."

"She doesn't have that kind of awareness." Ye Tingxiao judged Huo Qingxiang unceremoniously, "She is a proud and arrogant person. What she wants is to live a good life, not national hatred, family feuds, propriety, righteousness, and shame."

Looking at Ye Tingxiao in surprise, Du Wanwan smiled: "You know her quite well. You are worthy of being the son of Pingyang Marquis who has seen countless people."

"Miss Du! Why do you have to mock me?" Ye Tingxiao sat down, opposite Du Wanwan. "I am a scout. If I can't judge a person accurately, how can I be qualified for this job?"

"Don't call me Miss Du, I'm Du Dalang. Remember, this is very important."

"You don't like being a woman?"

Ye Tingxiao rarely gossiped, and he really wanted to know why Du Wanwan didn't return to her female body after arriving in Liang County.

"I'm a doctor. I'm afraid many people will look down on a woman who works as a doctor." Du Wanwan sighed, "I'll pretend to be a man first. Once I've established myself here, I'll slowly let people accept the fact that I'm a woman."

Ye Tingxiao nodded slightly: "This is a good idea."

Du Wanwan smiled bitterly: "No matter if it works or not, let's do this first, and we'll talk about it later."

"Your method of sewing wounds is very good. Can you teach it to the military doctor?" As soon as he said this, Ye Tingxiao felt that he was too greedy.

That was the result of Du Wanwan's painstaking research. How could he just ask her to contribute her results?

Seeing that she remained silent, he immediately added: "It doesn't matter if you can't, I'm just saying that."

"It's not impossible, but the problem is that my clinic is not open yet. Even if I want to teach, there are no patients. What's the point of just talking about it?"

Yetingxiao wanted to say that there were many wounded soldiers in the camp thirty miles outside the city. But she thought better of it. She had just arrived in the county city and had many things to deal with. She couldn't cause trouble for her at this moment.

"Then wait until your clinic opens and you find someone injured."

"Okay! Once I'm stable here and have made catgut for suturing wounds and a curved needle, I'll teach them!"

"Thank you!" Ye Tingxiao stood up and saluted her solemnly, "On behalf of the soldiers of the county city, thank you for your generous teaching."

"You're being polite. If my method can really reduce the death rate of soldiers, it will be a great merit for me."

Du Wanwan didn’t believe these things in her previous life, but after being reborn here, she began to believe them.

In her previous life, she was a doctor and saved many people. Did God think that she should not die young, so he sent her here?

She was an orphan before, but now she has parents and a younger brother here. It must be a blessing from God, allowing her to make up for all the regrets of her previous life.

"Yes! Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda, Aunt Du, no, Du Dalang will surely achieve great merit and become rich and powerful in the future."

"Pfft!" Du Wanwan laughed, "I didn't expect you to have the potential to be a monk or Taoist priest."

Being teased by her, Ye Tingxiao did not think it was unreasonable, but rather amused. He looked around and lowered his voice: "The medicine you gave me is really effective. Even the imperial physician could not find out what caused it. Will there be any hidden illness left after the effect of the medicine wears off?"

"You used it? So urgently? You used it to go back to Kyoto?" Du Wanwan looked at Ye Tingxiao in confusion, "You went back not only to give the banknotes, but also to do some private business?"

Ye Tingxiao didn't want to tell anyone about his relationship with Yang Yurong, but in front of Du Wanwan, he thought it was better to make it clear. It wouldn't matter if she found out about it in the future, as he had already reported it.

"It's okay to tell you this. I was arranged to marry a woman when I was very young, but I suddenly found out that she was having an affair with the King of Qi.

I had the idea of breaking off the engagement, but I had no other choice, so I asked you for the medicine. I drank it before I got home, and the imperial physician diagnosed me and said that I would never have children in this life.

When she found out, she went to a teahouse with the King of Qi and met him. They were caught by her mortal enemy and there was a big uproar. Later, the engagement was called off. On the wedding day, she did not marry me but the King of Qi and became a concubine in his palace.

"Ah? Just a concubine? Doesn't that mean she's at a disadvantage?" Du Wanwan stretched out a finger and tapped Ye Tingxiao's forehead from a distance, "You're so mean, plotting against a noble lady from a wealthy family like this."

Ye Tingxiao looked at Du Wanwan's finger, which was white, slender and soft, with neatly trimmed nails. He really wanted to hold it in his hand to feel what it felt like.

I have never shaken hands with a girl in my life.

"She was the one who wronged me first, so I had to do this to her."

But in my heart I was saying, I can't help it, who made me meet you? In this life, I only want you to be my wife, others are really not worth my attention.
