Seeing his father and daughter embrace and burst into tears, Huo Jincheng couldn't help but hug Ah Man tightly in his arms. He couldn't help but feel so overwhelmed. If he couldn't find Ah Man this time, how would he endure the piercing pain in the long years to come? He also understood the Prince of Pingnan's feelings more and more.

"Father-in-law, please accept my humble greetings!" Since Jian Ning had acknowledged him as his father, Ding Youtian naturally had to pay his respects. All the soldiers dismounted and congratulated him, "Congratulations, Your Highness, on the reunion of father and daughter."

The soldiers also cheered, and their voices resounded through the sky. Jane Ning looked at the 100,000 armored soldiers in front of her. As a former special forces soldier, the military spirit that had been imprinted in her bones was instantly awakened. Her blood boiled in her chest, and her whole demeanor changed instantly.

Prince Pingnan's gaze seemed fixed on Jian Ning, unwilling to move away. The joy of regaining what he had lost filled him with a sense of relief. Suddenly, he remembered Ding Youtian, standing beside him. He raised his hand and motioned for him to stand. He observed Ding Youtian with the eyes of an old father. He was a skilled warrior, to be sure, but also a renowned scholar. He had always respected scholars, and seeing Ding Youtian's remarkable appearance, he assumed he was from an aristocratic family.

He nodded, remembering Ding Youtian's previous self-proclaimed "young scholar," and asked with a smile, "Are you coming to the capital to take the imperial examination?"

"My dear father-in-law, that's right."

Prince Pingnan had heard on the way that the exam had been postponed due to the smallpox epidemic. He nodded again and was about to ask about his parents and where they lived when Ah Man stretched out his arms and called out to Jian Ning, "Mom!"

Mother? Prince Pingnan looked surprised. He looked at Ah Man and Huo Jincheng, then at Ding Youtian. Before he could ask, Jian Ning took Ah Man in his arms and said with a smile, "It's a long story. I'll tell you in detail on the way."

"Mom, should I call him grandpa or maternal grandfather?" Ah Man hugged Jian Ning's neck and looked at Pingnan Wangdao with a smile.

"It's all right, whatever you want."

"What's Jiajia Yaoyao's name?"

"They call me Grandpa."

"Then I'll call you Grandfather too." Ah Man said, "Grandfather, please don't shoot my mother's clairvoyance again next time. When I see it, I know my mother is looking for me... Oh, Auntie!" Ah Man turned around and called out to Huo Jincheng, "Daddy, Auntie is dead. She died saving me. Let's not hate Auntie anymore, okay?"

Yunniang was stabbed to death by Manager Wang. She clung to his thighs and refused to let go. He stabbed her in the head several times, cut off most of her right ear, and finally slit her throat with a knife. Her death was extremely tragic.

Jian Ning didn't let anyone else get close. She went forward to check with Ding Youtian and two guards who had contracted smallpox. Then she set Yunniang's body on fire and threw the gloves worn by several people into the fire to burn.

King Pingnan sat upright on his horse, looking at Jian Ning from afar as she handled all this calmly, his eyes full of fatherly love and satisfaction. It seemed that his daughter had learned a lot of skills over the years!

"Dad." Jane Ning rode over, "Do you know who killed her?"

"Since you ask this, does that person know your father?"

"Yes, I called him Uncle An when I was young." Jian Ning glanced at Duan Xinping behind him. Duan Xinping was only half a year younger than Xin'an and Xinning. She knew from Duan Xinning's memories before she was four years old that Duan Xinping loved to play with Xin'an and Xinning since she was a child. But if she let Concubine Min and Shopkeeper Wang go, how could she be worthy of her original self, Duan Xinning?

"Sister Xinning, you are talking about me, my aunt's uncle?" Duan Xinping was stunned for a while before she reacted.

"Yes." Jian Ning looked at Prince Pingnan, "Father, Yunniang has contracted smallpox. This disease is contagious through saliva, blood, and physical contact. He killed her, so his hands and body must have been contaminated with the disease. We can't let him spread the disease everywhere. We have to find him quickly."

What kind of person is the King of Pingnan? After hearing Jian Ning mention Wang Min'an, his face turned cold, and his mind instantly became clear as a mirror. He immediately ordered all the soldiers to fly and search.

"Ning'er." He had so many things he wanted to ask Jian Ning, but he also knew that now was not the time to ask these questions. If the smallpox epidemic resurfaced, the consequences would be disastrous. "Daddy is sorry for making you suffer outside."

Thousands of words are condensed in this sentence.

"I'm fine, not suffering." Jian Ning's heart was filled with mixed emotions. She was just a soul that traveled through time into Duan Xinning's body. Before she met the King and Queen of Pingnan, she had never thought of recognizing them. She never expected that after seeing them, the family affection would be so strong and unexpected, as if they were her biological parents, many years ago.

"Daddy, don't worry too much. I'm fine." She glanced at Ding Youtian, then turned to King Pingnan and said, "My husband treats me very well. We have four children, one son and three daughters. The eldest, Ding Cheng, is studying in Jin County with his uncle and aunt. The eldest daughter, Ding Shu, is also studying in the village clan school. The next two are twin girls, Ding Jia and Ding Yao. I will take them to see Daddy and Mother after we return to Beijing."

Upon hearing that she had also given birth to twin girls, Prince Pingnan's eyes lit up, then dimmed again. "How is your mother... lately? Have you been back to see her?"

"Much better, but I haven't taken Jiajia and Yaoyao to see her yet. I wanted to wait until my mother's condition stabilized before going."

"Oh, but have you asked a famous doctor to treat your mother? Alas, your father has visited many famous doctors over the years, but her condition has kept recurring and there has been no improvement."

By now, almost everyone in the capital knew that Jian Ning was a skilled doctor. The news of the city being closed due to the smallpox epidemic had not yet spread, and Prince Pingnan still didn't know that Jian Ning was a female doctor. As soon as he finished speaking, Ah Man, who was playing with Qiu Ge, turned around and shouted, "My mother is a miracle doctor. Grandfather, you might not know this, but my mother is very powerful."

Huo Jincheng also laughed and said, "She can even heal a severed palm. She's quite capable. She's learned from a hidden master."

"Oh, seriously?" The gloom between King Pingnan's brows dissipated more than half. He had seen Jian Ning examining Yunniang's body in an orderly and methodical manner before, and he was wondering if his daughter was a female doctor. He didn't expect that she was actually a female doctor.

"Okay, okay, if your mother can wake up through your care, it will not be in vain for her hard work in raising you. Ever since your sister An'er passed away, you've been lost again. Over the years, your mother...ah, it's all Daddy's fault. It's Daddy's fault!"

He looked up at the sky, his expression as if immersed in distant memories.

Over there, Yunniang had been burned to a pile of charcoal. Huo Jincheng, who had been wishing to tear her apart alive recently, took Aman over after asking Jian Ning and asked Aman to kowtow to her body several times. He then sent guards on fast horses to the city to order a fine coffin, intending to bury her with honor so that she would have a place to rest after her death.

If this person takes a wrong step, he will become a devil or a Buddha in one thought.

Jian Ning thought of the scene when he first met Yunniang on the night he first arrived in Beijing, and his heart was filled with sadness!
