"It's almost resolved."

Ye Jintang replied to Ye Ling, "But was it you who summoned that Imperial Preceptor?"

"good."

Ye Ling took another step closer to Ye Jintang, and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that she was alright.

"Could there be a problem?"

"It's not really a problem, it's just that this Grand Preceptor..."

Ye Jintang was unsure whether to tell Ye Ling what Ye Yu had said, as that would involve too many things.

She hesitated for a moment but ultimately did not continue.

Thank you.

Although she could deal with the evil energy on her own, it would be much easier if someone else did it for her.

"Yunfeng is currently at the mansion; I need to go to the General's Mansion immediately."

Seeing that Ye Ling was looking at her, Ye Jintang said.

"I will go with you."

"good."

Ye Jintang was surprised for a moment, but didn't say anything more. The two of them headed towards the General's Mansion together.

Upon arriving at the general's mansion, the guards on duty were extremely anxious upon seeing her.

"Miss Ye, you're finally back. The general suddenly fainted for some reason."

"Fainted?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Jintang hesitated, seemingly puzzled.

How could she have fainted when she was perfectly fine? She was checked before she left, so this shouldn't have happened.

"When did this happen? Did you take your doctor, Dr. Qing, to see him?"

The guard nodded quickly.

"The doctor has just arrived and should be treating the general right now."

Ye Jintang gave a soft "hmm" and quickly walked towards the room where Ye He was.

Several guards were still standing in the courtyard at this time; most of them were sent by Ye Ling.

When they saw Ye Ling, who had come with Ye Jintang, they bowed respectfully.

"Your Highness, I pay my respects."

"What is General Ye's current situation?" Ye Ling asked.

"Your Highness, the doctor is already inside treating the patient, as for..."

Before the guards could finish speaking, the doctor they had mentioned came out from inside.

He looked surprised when he saw these people.

The guard closest to the physician asked first, "Physician, how is General Ye?"

"The general is just overworked; he will recover after a period of rest and recuperation."

While the guards were questioning him, Ye Jintang had already entered the room, where Ye He was still unconscious.

She reached out to take his pulse, and the result surprised her somewhat.

Yehe's condition deteriorated again, and it was even said that he had been exposed to evil energy.

These malevolent energies caused damage to the Ye River to some extent.

But clearly... Ye Jintang lowered her eyes, pondering what exactly went wrong.

Could it be the time when Ye He disappeared?

It's no wonder the doctor diagnosed Ye He with a coma caused by overwork; judging from his pulse, Ye He didn't seem to have any other serious problems.

But there are some things only she knows, the effects of the malevolent energy...

"General Ye at this moment..."

At the same time, Ye Ling walked in, and when she saw the seriousness on Ye Jintang's face, she realized that things were not simple.

“My father’s coma was not caused by overwork, but by the influence of evil energy.”

Upon seeing Ye Ling, Ye Jintang did not hide anything from her.

"It's that ominous aura again."

"Shall I go and invite the Imperial Advisor to come and examine General Ye?"

As Ye Ling looked on with concern, she was clearly seeking Ye Jintang's opinion on the matter.

"No need."

Ye Jintang directly refused.

"I can handle this myself, so why bother the Imperial Advisor?"

After saying that, she took out an acupuncture kit from her sleeve and pulled out a few silver needles.

These silver needles were placed in the space, and they too were imbued with spiritual energy.

Ye Jintang simply aimed at the acupoint on Ye He's head and gently inserted the needle.

Ye He, who was originally unconscious, reacted, and his fingers twitched slightly.

Seeing this, Ye Jintang's earlier guess was further confirmed.

Under the influence of acupuncture, Ye He quickly regained consciousness.

Ye He was somewhat surprised to see the person inside the house.

"Tang'er, and His Highness the Regent...?" Ye He looked at the two of them and slowly got up from the bed.

How did you get here?

"I suppose General Ye has something to say to Miss Ye. I shall step out first."

Ye Ling spoke first, not wanting to put Ye Jintang in a difficult position at this time.

Ye Jintang watched Ye Ling's departing figure, wanting to say something but not knowing how to begin, and sighed.

She turned her gaze back to Ye He and asked, "Father, how are you feeling now? Is there anything wrong with you?"

When Ye Jintang asked him, Ye He gently shook his head.

"I'm fine as a father, it's just some old ailments."

"His martial arts skills have all been ruined, which is also an old problem of his, according to Father?"

Seeing how easily Ye He spoke of these things, Ye Jintang felt a little sorry for him. According to the previous treatment, as long as Ye He could get through that period safely, there was still a chance that his previous martial arts skills would return.

But then these things happened in the middle.

For martial arts practitioners, losing their skills is undoubtedly a huge blow.

Not to mention someone like Ye He...

"Tang'er, you don't need to worry about me. Now that things have been resolved, I am already very satisfied to be able to return to the General's Mansion and see you again."

"As for this martial arts skill..." Ye He paused for a moment. He had spent most of his life fighting on the battlefield. It was impossible for him not to feel a sense of loss when he suddenly lost his martial arts skills.

He knew very well that Ye Jintang had already done enough for him.

And I, as the father...

Whenever he thought of this, Ye He felt even more guilty.

"Tang'er, it's all my fault."

"This incident has worried you again."

Ye He said to Ye Jintang.

It would be impossible for Ye Jintang to say that he was not moved at all upon hearing this.

"Father, don't think like that. Your daughter will find a way to help you regain your martial arts skills."

Yehe's current condition is entirely due to the evil energy.

Things will change if we address these root causes.

It's not impossible that Ye He's martial arts skills might even return.

But now, besides Ye He's martial arts skills, there is an even more important problem.

"Father, have you ever thought about stepping down from your position as general?"

Ye Jintang looked at Ye He.

Emperors have always been suspicious by nature. Ye He escaped danger this time, but what about next time? What if he is falsely accused again?

Moreover, this trip to the palace made Ye Jintang realize something even more.

From the time Yehe's defection was announced until now, the emperor was not unaware that Yehe was innocent.

However, they have consistently adopted a cold and indifferent attitude towards these matters, which is definitely not simple.

Furthermore, Ye He's prestige within the military camp has, to some extent, become a threat.

Under the current circumstances, the best option is to let Ye He relinquish his position as general, retire to his hometown, and stay away from the intrigues of the court.

She thought that since the emperor did not continue to "pursue" Ye He's matter, it was because he was showing some leniency.
