zChapter 1143 - Remember? Don’t Admit It, No Matter What (2/2)
The Second Master Yao Jing Xiao said: “This is not the important part, we heard that Ah-Heng fainted on the streets yesterday, a hidden guard carried her back and even asked for a physician from Hundred Herb Hall. After we heard about it, we rushed over to take a look, she was still unconscious. The physician from Hundred Herb Hall only said that it was only the fire of anxiousness attacking the heart and it was nothing too serious. It is just that the source of her fire is unknown. It is entering winter now, the weather is very cold, and having practiced martial arts, how big must the fire be for it to attack her until she faints in the streets?”
Xu Shi also sighed and said: “That’s right! I heard the servants of Yu Palace say that Ah-Heng is unable to eat well, that’s why I thought of making some desserts from Xiao Province, seeing if a change in taste would cause her to eat a little more.”
Everyone spoke one after another, causing Yao Xian to feel that things were strange, but after asking more about it, the people of the Yao family could not describe anything concrete, not even knowing what person Feng Yuheng was looking for. Qin Shi said: “Eldest Sister-in-law and I went to the Yu Palace a few times, but we could not meet Ah-Heng, she is never in the palace, the servants said that she would basically be walking around the streets in the capital in the day.”
Yao Xian frowned and stood up, walking out without saying anything. The Yao family were surprised, quickly following behind him, Yao Jing Jun asked as he walked: “Where is Father going? Are you going to Yu Palace?”
Yao Xian nodded: “Instruct someone to prepare a carriage, making blind guesses at home is useless, I will go over there personally to take a look.”
“I will go with Father!” Xu Shi also caught up with him, “To deliver the desserts to Ah-Heng.”
Yao Xian thought about it for a while, but rejected Xu Shi’s suggestion: “No need, I can go alone, you can pack the desserts and I will bring them over, I will tell Ah-Heng that her Eldest Aunt especially made it for her. After hearing it, she should be able to eat some.” Yao Xian thought, it was likely that Feng Yuheng encountered some difficult situation, and since that issue could push her back this much, this meant it was not easy to solve. After so long, the people of the Yao family did not know what she was doing, this also told him that she did not want others to know what she was doing, so he could nto bring any other people over, he could only go on his home. He believed that no matter what Feng Yuheng encountered, she would not hide anything from her paternal grandfather from her past life and her maternal grandfather in her current life.
Once Yao Xian left the house, he encountered Huang Quan travelling towards him as she just arrived. The two of them conversed simply and Yao Xian boarded the horse carriage immediately and followed Huang Quan to Yu Palace, and when he saw Feng Yuheng, this was when he got a huge shock: “How did you cause yourself to end up in this state?”
Feng Yuheng had never looked this bad, she was so skinny that her eye sockets had sunken in, the area around were eyes were dark and her face was flushed, but that was not because her complexion was good, it was because of the night of fever. She sat on the mattress and looked at Yao Xian, obviously breathing a sigh of relief. Dismissing Wang Chuan and Huang Quan immediately, she grabbed Yao Xian’s hand anxiously and said: “Grandfather, what should I do, she has returned!”
“What did you say? Who returned?” Yao Xian did not understand what Feng Yuheng stand, pulling her hand away at the same time, “Regardless of what you want to say, let me examine your pulse first.” He pressed down on Feng Yuheng’s brachial plexus, and half a beat later, he frowned and said: “Your pulse is disorderly and lacking in energy, your body in lacking in yin. He shook his head as he spoke, “You are a physician yourself and you won’t even find some medicine to eat. Send me into the Space, I will take some medicine out for you!”
“No need, no need.” Feng Yuheng shook her head and was a little anxious, “Grandfather, my body is a small issue and I am aware of its condition, after eating some medicine later and recuperate for a while, it will recover, you do not need to worry. Listen to me, I encountered a troublesome issue recently, do you know? The original owner of this body of mine, the real Feng Yuheng, I…… I seemed to have seen her, she has returned!”
“What?” It was Yao Xian’s turn to feel shocked this time, “You’re saying that the Feng family’s Second Miss who died in the northwest mountains, she has returned? How did she return? Using what method? That person is already dead, could it be that her spirit returned? You dreamt of her?”
Feng Yuheng showed a troubled smile, “If I only dreamt it, then how minor would that be? Grandfather, think about us, after our death, we were able to borrow another person’s body to live another life, then, why can’t she do that? She returned personally, living in another body, returning to Da Shun’s capital. I had seen her twice, but she appears to have the intentions of hiding from me. Not only is she hiding from me, she was even with Bu Cong. Do you know about Bu Cong? The child of the Bu family in the past, the ex-army general of Da Shun. But the Bu family fell and he walked on the wrong path, then he went missing later. He has bounced back currently and actually came back together with that real Feng Yuheng. Grandfather, I’m really afraid, if all of this is found out, then, where should I go?”
Yao Xian finally understood why Feng Yuheng became like this, he also did not expect that the real daughter of the Feng family could also have an opportunity to live another life and even returned to the capital. What did she want to do? She wanted to claim back her body?
This was a question which was hard to solve, Yao Xian also did not know how to reply. In the end, he was the same as Feng Yuheng, hiding this secret in his heart. If the real Yao Xian returned one day, he would also have the face the same issue.
Grandparent and grandchild went into deep thought. After a long time, Yao Xian finally spoke again, he told Feng Yuheng: “Do not fear, since that person came together with Bu Cong, then, her words would not be trustworthy to Da Shun. People who stand on the opposing side of Da Shun, regardless of what they do, it will be wrong and contains ulterior motives. Based on the worst case scenario, all of this gets publicised, but what of it? Tell everyone, this is the opposing faction trying to sow internal chaos in Da Shun, creating an opportunity for their own side to obtain victory. If the people of Da Shun really believe it, then they will win, all of this is just them using underhanded methods to win. Either way, just follow one thing, never admit the truth! Have you, remembered it?”
