"How are you? Is my health alright?"

Jiang Mubai asked the doctor who was taking his pulse with a cold face.

"Replying to your question, Lord Marquis, judging from your pulse, your health is not in any serious condition."

"If there were no serious problems, why would my body suddenly stiffen and I be unable to move?"

"This..." The doctor was momentarily stumped by Jiang Mubai's question and didn't know how to answer. He could only cautiously inquire, "My lord, how long have these symptoms been going on? Have any other symptoms accompanied them?"

"It happened suddenly!"

Jiang Mubai's tone was impatient; he felt annoyed just thinking about what had happened at Dali Temple.

According to his understanding, although Ye Jintang was Ye He's daughter, she had not learned any martial arts, let alone knew how to use internal force to seal people's acupoints.

But the situation actually happened, which is truly unbelievable.

"That happened so suddenly, that's strange, Your Excellency..."

Seeing that the doctor was going to continue asking questions, Jiang Mubai's expression became increasingly gloomy.

"I summoned you here for a diagnosis, not to ask these useless questions!"

Jiang Mubai roared at the doctor, "Just tell me clearly whether this illness is curable or not!"

"My lord...my lord, I am utterly incompetent..."

"Useless! A bunch of useless trash!"

Jiang Mubai was clearly furious at the doctor's words. Ever since he returned to the capital and met Ye Jintang, all sorts of strange things had been happening.

Ye Jintang, in particular, seemed like a completely different person. She wasn't like this before, so how did she become so different?

And his mother, after a brief period of consciousness, has fallen back into a coma.

Now, Xue Rou has also been imprisoned in the Dali Temple jail.

What's most hateful is that even though he knew these things were related to Ye Jintang, he was completely helpless against this vicious woman.

The more this happened, the more Jiang Mubai felt a tightness in his chest, making him feel suffocated.

Seeing that Jiang Mubai's face was getting worse and worse, and that he looked like he was about to be attacked at any moment, the doctor who was treating him quickly advised, "My lord, anger is bad for your health. I will definitely find a way to cure him once I get back and do some research."

"roll!"

Jiang Mubai gave a cold shout, having no time to waste any more words with the doctor.

"Yes... I'll leave now."

The doctor was already quite frightened by Jiang Mubai's expression, and upon hearing this, he hurriedly picked up his medicine box and left, fearing that if he stayed any longer, the marquis would punish him in a fit of anger.

After the doctor left, Jiang Mubai summoned the guards outside again.

The guard, unsure of Jiang Mubai's intentions, asked him, "My lord, would you like to summon another doctor immediately?"

"No need!"

Since the doctor couldn't diagnose anything, it proves that the problem isn't with him. The most important thing right now is Xue Rou.

Ye Jintang, that vicious woman, is truly capable. She even has access to the Dali Temple, showing no regard for her husband's reputation whatsoever.

Jiang Mubai felt a burning hatred whenever he thought about it.

In his view, everything Ye Jintang was doing was nothing more than a malicious scheme out of jealousy that Xue Rou was about to become his concubine.

This woman really thought that she could make him different with this method; she was truly delusional.

Once he has resolved his current issues, he will definitely settle all scores with Ye Jintang, both past and present.

"My lord, what would you like me to do?"

"Go and investigate where Xue Rou has been during this period and who she has been in contact with."

Jiang Mubai gave instructions to the guards.

He still didn't believe that Xue Rou was capable enough to release Wang Bao from Dali Temple; there must be something else going on behind the scenes.

It's hard to feel at ease if you don't understand some things.

Huishengtang.

"Miss, His Highness the Regent has arrived."

When Lühe saw Ye Ling, she hurriedly reported the matter to Ye Jintang.

"Ye Ling?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Jintang, who was in the space, immediately left the space and walked outside.

Looking up, he saw a figure slowly walking towards him.

"Your Highness, what brings you here today?"

When Ye Ling appeared in the courtyard and walked up to Ye Jintang, Lü He had already quietly left.

It's best for her not to disturb them at this point.

"Would I not come to you if there were no other reason?"

Ye Ling looked at the woman in front of her, seemingly somewhat displeased with her question.

"Of course not."

Ye Jintang replied.

"General Ye has woken up."

"Um?"

Just as Ye Jintang was thinking about how to continue the conversation, she heard Ye Ling say this.

Her expression immediately turned serious, and she asked Ye Ling again, "How is my father now?"

"General Ye has woken up, but he is still weak. I have sent the imperial physician to treat him, and he should recover soon."

Ye Jintang nodded, knowing that Ye Ling must have handled things properly.

"I have recently developed some tonic pills. If you see my father, you can ask him to take them."

After saying that, Ye Jintang took out two medicine bottles from his spatial storage and handed them to Ye Ling.

"Are both of these bottles for General Ye?"

“No,” Ye Jintang said. “This white bottle is indeed for my father, but this blue one is for Your Highness.”

"This pill can not only help you suppress the toxicity of the Soul-Devouring Powder, but also serve as an antidote."

"I think you'll find it useful."

"As for my father, I'll have to trouble Your Highness to take care of him."

Given Ye He's current condition, it's not appropriate for him to appear in front of everyone. At the very least, the matter of his alleged desertion needs to be investigated thoroughly. Otherwise, even if everyone knows that Ye He didn't die, it will still cause a series of troubles.

By then, it won't be so easy to solve the problem.

What she needs to do now is to make sure that everything goes perfectly.

"Why bother?"

Ye Ling reached out and took the medicine bottle from Ye Jintang, her eyes filled with a smile.

"These are merely things I should do."

"Um?"

Ye Jintang hesitated, feeling that there was another meaning behind Ye Ling's words when she met his dark eyes.

Big White lay on the ground watching this scene from afar, letting out a bark.

[Woman, this man seems to be interested in you.]

Ye Jintang: "..."

This idiot even started commenting.

She gave Big White a warning look, her fingertips swirling with spiritual energy.

With a loud "whoosh," Big White leaped up from the ground.

[Ouch, ouch, ouch! Woman, you have no sportsmanship!]

Big White let out a howling sound.

"This dog...?"

Ye Ling noticed the commotion and hesitated for a moment.

"It's nothing, don't worry about it."

"I have something else that I think might be helpful to you."

After putting the two bottles away, Ye Ling handed a letter to Ye Jintang.

Ye Jintang reached out and took it, his expression changing slightly when he saw what was inside.

"This is……"

"I discovered that while he was in the military camp, Jiang Mubai had dealings with some ministers in the court, some of whom were at odds with your father."
