Chapter 1812: Revenge
At the same time, he was very clear that this might require the higher-ups of the headquarters to take action personally. Otherwise, it would be easy to alert the enemy and give Lin Yuelan a chance to counterattack.
If he wanted to succeed, if he wanted to ask a favour from the higher-ups of the Yama Pavilion, he had to pay a certain price!
However, the information that he had leaked had not received any response even after a few months.
Seeing that Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan were about to get married, he became more and more anxious and restless.
For this reason, he once again went through the secret passage to inquire about the situation.
This time, he did not expect the headquarters to reply.
The person looked at Yuwen Xuhong coldly and once again conveyed the order from above.” The Pavilion Master wants you to wait in the capital’s branch hall tonight at three-quarters to nine!”
Yuwen Xuhong suppressed the impulse in his heart and nodded,” Alright, reply to the pavilion master. I will be waiting for the master on time!”
That person didn’t say anything and immediately turned around.
He really came and went without a trace!
Yuwen Xuhong looked at the disappearing figure and a ruthless light flashed in his eyes. His expression was a little resentful. He gritted his teeth and said in a low voice,” Just you wait. When I ascend to that position, any power that threatens me can forget about existing, including you, Yama Pavilion! Humph…”
After hearing Lin Yuelan’s story about Jiang Zhennan’s mother, Yuan Shutong, the two kind-hearted elders immediately showed expressions of shock, heartache, and sympathy.
Lin Deshan was furious. “Jiang Yunfeng is too despicable. He actually treated his wife, who had given birth to a child for him, like this. He was really worse than an animal. He actually acquiesced to another woman and did such a ruthless thing to his main wife. He even participated in it.”
Lin Yuelan quickly nodded and said,” That’s right. Mother is really too miserable. She was clearly a good person, but because of these vicious people, she’s now sick. Now, she might not even have half a year of life left!”
“What?” When Lin Deshan and Doctor Zhang heard that Yuan Shutong had less than half a year to live, they were not shocked.” How could this be?”
Lin Yuelan said seriously,” Grandfather, grandmaster, that bowl of crocus caused her to bleed profusely when she gave birth. If Uncle Lu hadn’t secretly placed the Golden Silkworm Gu in Mother’s body to save her life, she might have died on the spot.”
At this point, she sighed softly and continued,” But even though the Golden Silkworm Gu managed to help Mother survive, that bowl of crocus soup had already caused great damage to Mother’s body. If it wasn’t for Uncle Lu’s efforts to protect Mother and extend her life, who knew if Mother and Brother Nan would be able to meet in this lifetime? However, even so, mother’s body was too injured back then. Uncle Lu is already helpless.”
“So, she only has half a year left?!” Lin Deshan no longer had his previous prejudice. Instead, it was replaced by concern.
Yuan Shutong was indeed Jiang Zhennan’s mother.
No matter what kind of person she was, she was still Nan Brat’s biological mother.
If she were better, then Nan Brat would be happier. At that time, his marriage with the girl would be even more blissful.
Lin Yuelan nodded and said,” That’s true. Otherwise, Uncle Lu wouldn’t have travelled so far to bring Mother back to Longyan Kingdom from the southern border!”
” Ah, that’s not right.” It didn’t take long for Doctor Zhang to react first. He asked in confusion,” Girl, you said that the old madam still has half a year left. That was the man’s diagnosis and not yours, right?”
Hearing Doctor Zhang’s reminder, Lin Deshan also reacted. He narrowed his eyes and said angrily,” You little girl, do you really think I’m such an unreasonable person? Do you really need such a reason to make me sympathize with her?”
Lin Yuelan stuck out her tongue in embarrassment and said with a smile,” Grandpa, your expressions outside the city scared me. Besides, I’m telling the truth. Before Mother came here, she had less than half a year to live. I diagnosed it myself.”
Lin Deshan rolled his eyes speechlessly.” What about now? With a young divine doctor like you taking action, could it be that this old madam only has half a year to live?”
Lin Yuelan smiled embarrassedly and said,” No, no. After my diagnosis and treatment, as long as there are no accidents, it’s not a problem for mother to live to a hundred years old.”
At this point, Lin Yuelan carefully looked at Lin Deshan and Doctor Zhang’s expressions. She rolled her eyes and tugged at their sleeves. She said coquettishly,” Grandpa, she’s my future mother-in-law. Please forgive her and don’t take it to heart, okay?”
Lin Deshan glanced at her and said unhappily,” How can we be calculative with her? After all, she’s your future mother-in-law. Even if we don’t want to be respectful, we have to be respectful.” He paused for a moment and continued with a serious expression,” It’s true that there have been cases of a woman marrying two husbands since the founding of Longyan Kingdom, but those women have a bad reputation and are often talked about behind people’s backs. Grandpa is worried that you and Nan Brat will also be criticized by the people of the world because of this.”
Lin Deshan and Doctor Zhang were worried that Yuan Shutong’s marriage to two husbands would affect Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan’s reputations.
Lin Yuelan shook her head gratefully.” Grandfather, grandmaster, don’t worry. Mother remarrying was approved by the Emperor. No one would dare to criticize this matter behind his back! However, my mother-in-law and I are both upright citizens. We are also not afraid of others criticizing us! Don’t worry!”
When Lin Deshan and Doctor Zhang heard this, they heaved a sigh of relief.” That’s good!”
