Jiang Shuyan noticed that her expression was a little off and was somewhat worried, but he didn't stop her from going back to her room. He replied with an "okay," but as she passed by, he asked again, "Do you want to find a doctor to take a look at you?"
"No need. I'm a doctor myself, so I know my own body condition. I'm fine, I just need to rest."
"Okay, then you should get some rest. I'll have someone deliver it to your room tonight."
Li Qiuyin nodded and hummed in agreement, then turned and went back to her own courtyard without looking back.
After the other person left, Jiang Shuyan asked the people around him to investigate where Li Qiuyin went and what happened that day.
Although his thoughts were somewhat complicated, regardless of matters of the heart, Li Qiuyin had saved his life, and he should naturally treat her well in return for such a debt of gratitude.
The subordinate quickly replied "yes" and then hurried off to investigate.
…
The guards returned when Jiang Shuyan finished her dinner.
"Is the investigation complete? Did anything unusual happen?"
The guard obediently replied, "Miss Li went out shopping today, and nothing unusual happened before that, except that she encountered the Regent's Consort before returning home..."
He spoke the last four words softer and softer, after all, everyone knew about the affair between the young general and the regent's wife.
Jiang Shuyan was taken aback by what the guard said. She had actually met Wan Ge. How did she know her? Or did Wan Ge come to find her on purpose?
Just as he was thinking this, the guard's words refuted his guess.
"The Regent's wife is said to have gone to check on the shop's business. All the stewards of the palace are now under her control, and she occasionally checks on the shops. The two must have met by chance."
What did they say to each other?
The guard shook his head. No one could hear what they were saying. Even the princess's maid was standing at a distance, so it was even less likely that passersby would have heard their conversation.
"After the princess left, she continued to inspect the shops, and then the regent took her home. Miss Li went home by herself not long after the princess left."
Upon returning to the General's Mansion, this is how the young general saw him, so there's no need to go into the details of what happened next.
"I understand." Jiang Shuyan waved his hand and the other person quickly withdrew.
Jiang Shuyan looked in the direction of Li Qiuyin again and fell into thought.
…
…
Wan Ge helped Nan Jinchu take off his outer garment, and while doing so, she asked, "Does my husband know anyone named Li Qiuyin?"
Nan Jinchu already knew that his wife had met her: "I know, but did she make you angry?"
Wan Ge quickly shook her head: "No, she's not bad... Although I don't really like her, she doesn't seem like a bad person."
"You probably already know who she is. In your previous life, after you passed away, Jiang Shuyan married her as his second wife. She didn't do anything bad, but being around someone like that meant she couldn't always choose not to do certain things."
"Yes, that's what I think too."
Wan Ge placed his coat on the rack, then continued, "Although it was only one meeting, I know she's back, and I've been honest with her."
Nan Jin paused for a moment, realizing she hadn't thought of that.
