Chapter 290 The Miracle Doctor of Penglai Island
"Are you familiar with this area? Are there any Tibetans?" Nan Jiao retracted her gaze and looked at the other person. From his appearance, he seemed to be doing rough labor all year round.
He was dressed very casually, and had many wounds of varying sizes on his hands.
"I usually go back and forth between the temple and here. I'm not familiar with the surrounding area. I have to continue working." The middle-aged man said as he pulled the cart away.
Nan Jiao stared at the man's receding back and said, "Send someone to secretly keep an eye on him."
Zhan Beiheng looked at her, "Do you suspect him?"
"Don't you think he is calm and composed?" Nan Jiao narrowed her eyes slightly. If it were other people who did odd jobs, they would be shocked to see them wearing luxurious clothes.
It will be somewhat restrained and uncomfortable.
But he didn't, he wasn't nervous at all the whole time, so there was something wrong with this guy.
"It's indeed too calm." A fierce look gradually emerged in Zhan Beiheng's eyes. They were intimidating, but the other party was not afraid at all.
The two searched the area nearby, but found nothing and returned to the temple.
Zhan Beiheng arranged two people to secretly watch the middle-aged man all the time and report his whereabouts every day.
…
general's mansion.
Jiang Zhiyan personally brought people to deliver the dowry that Mu gave her. Because the housekeeper had gone to report, she could only wait in the reception room in the front yard.
Looking at the familiar hall, her heart was in turmoil.
She was once the favored daughter of the family here.
Now that she came here, she had to ask the housekeeper to go in and report. She didn't even have the right to come and go freely. It was all because of that bitch Jiang Nanjiao.
If it weren't for her, she would still be the fourth daughter of the general's mansion with a noble status.
The Mu family will not become spies.
Even though she is the Princess of Rui now, she is just a title. In the past two days, Zhan Qingheng no longer went to her courtyard and has been staying with Pang Jingyi.
A moment.
The people from the Jiang family came out, and when everyone saw her, their faces looked very unhappy.
"Grandpa and grandma, I..." Jiang Zhiyan spoke with a smile. She wanted to break off relations with them and speak coldly to them again, but she couldn't do that now.
Jiang Yao interrupted her and said, "Princess Rui, you no longer have any relationship with the Jiang family, so don't call them grandpa and grandma, so as not to cause misunderstanding."
The smile on Jiang Zhiyan's face froze. "In Zhiyan's heart, you will always be my family. I came here today to return my dowry."
"Return the dowry?" The old lady had a puzzled look on her face. When she got married, the general's mansion gave her a dowry, so naturally she would not ask for it back.
They could afford those things, and from here on, they completely severed their relationship.
"I already know that Mu is not the general's wife. I should return the dowry she gave me to the general's mansion. This is the list of items in the dowry."
Jiang Zhiyan said this and walked up to the old lady with the list.
The old lady didn't realize that she was talking about the dowry. She took the list and opened it. "It should be returned. These don't belong to the Mu family."
"Please ask someone to make a careful list. I didn't move." Jiang Zhiyan smiled gently and obediently, but her heart was bleeding. So many things were gone.
"Yes." The old lady responded. She was indeed a little surprised that she took the initiative to return the dowry, but she didn't feel sorry for her because it was not hers in the first place.
Jiang Zhiyan looked at Jiang Chi, "Dad, does mom have any clues? I really didn't know that Mu was an imposter."
When she spoke of the latter part, her eyes became red.
Jiang Chi said expressionlessly: "Princess Rui, I am not your father, and my wife has nothing to do with you, so don't bother yourself."
"I..." Jiang Zhiyan bit her red lips, looking aggrieved.
"General Jiang, the princess means well. Why do you have this attitude? Even if she is not a member of the Jiang family, there is no need to be like this." Banxia couldn't help but speak out.
Stand up for one's master.
She felt that the Jiang family was going too far. When the princess was in the Jiang family, they spoiled her to the skies.
They believed whatever Jiang Nanjiao said and even drove the princess out of the general's mansion.
So inhumane and cold-blooded!
"She severed ties with the Jiang family on the day she got married. Is there anything wrong with me not wanting her to worry about it?" Jiang Chi said with a cold face, thinking of Mu's doting on Jiang Zhiyan.
He didn't want to see her even more.
"The princess has lived in the general's mansion for twenty years, a full twenty years. Don't you have any feelings for him?" Banxia asked angrily.
Jiang Chi's face darkened. "She has been with us for twenty years. We have raised her for twenty years. I don't think I owe her anything. Now that we have severed our relationship, there is no need to have any further contact."
"You..." Banxia took a deep breath, feeling angry and furious in her heart. She had always been in the Jiang family, and people in the Jiang family would never behave like this before.
Jiang Nanjiao must have exaggerated the matter behind the scenes.
"General Jiang is right. I will remember your kindness in raising me and I will not bother you again." Jiang Zhiyan's eyes were filled with mist.
After saying that, she left quickly with a sad face.
Banxia hurriedly chased after him.
in the carriage.
Jiang Zhiyan gently pressed the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, feeling unspeakable pain in her heart.
She was really sad.
Thinking of the scene when the family was full of laughter and she was the center of attention, she couldn't help but shed tears. How happy she was before.
Now.
Although she is a noble Princess Rui, she seems to have nowhere to stay.
"Princess, don't cry. The reason they are so heartless must be Jiang Nanjiao's fault. They were so nice to you before." Banxia said comfortingly.
Jiang Zhiyan turned her face away, her nails digging deeply into the flesh, her eyes filled with deep hatred, and she was shaking with anger.
It is indeed Jiang Nanjiao!
If she hadn't come back, how could she have ended up like this!
She's going to kill her!
If she couldn't kill her, she would die with her!
How come she can be so bright and beautiful despite being such a wretch!
The carriage soon arrived at Prince Rui's palace.
Jiang Zhiyan had calmed down the hatred in her heart. When she got off the carriage, she saw an unfamiliar carriage parked at the gate of the palace. It was very exquisite and luxurious.
It looks like a woman is sitting there.
After entering the palace, in the garden, Butler Fan bowed to her when he saw her.
"Butler Fan, I saw a carriage parked at the gate of the palace. Who is coming to the palace?" Jiang Zhiyan asked with a gentle and casual smile.
"Princess, the miracle doctor from Penglai Island has arrived and is treating the prince," Butler Fan said quickly.
Jiang Zhiyan's eyebrows lit up with joy.
The miracle doctor of Penglai Island!
Is she trying to help the prince with that? If the condition can be cured, she can try to get pregnant with the prince's child. With a child, she will have a place to stay.
Jiang Zhiyan's mood instantly improved, as if she saw the light, and she walked quickly towards Zhan Qingheng's yard.
The main courtyard of Prince Rui’s Palace.
Zhan Qingheng was having his pulse taken by someone. The woman was wearing turmeric-colored clothing and a veil on her head that covered her entire face, making it impossible to see her features.
A moment.
The woman took her hand back and said firmly, "King Rui, there is nothing wrong with your body. You can't have sex because you were bewitched."
"What! The king has been tricked!" Zhan Qingheng stood up suddenly, his handsome face showing disbelief, followed by tremendous anger.
