After Rebirth, She Becomes the Revenge Queen-Chapter 489 - 335: What Illness Did They Get? (Seeking Monthly Pass)_3

Liang Chen’s mind suddenly conjured up the image of King Yan on the day of the deposed Crown Prince’s palace coup, sitting on the palace railing, smiling and gazing up at the kite in the sky.

"In the eyes of the court officials, King Yan has always been the youngest child favored by the Empress, and indeed, he has lived under her watchful eye all these years.

"Yet I do not know how he managed to secretly plan all of this?"

Pei Zhan stopped in his tracks, bit his lower lip, and looked at him, unable to respond.

...

Just after Pei Zhan entered the palace without turning back, Fu Zhen turned around and caught Liang Xuan, intending to send him back.

Liang Xuan refused no matter what and quickly ran to Mrs. Pei to act cute. Mrs. Pei was naturally soft-hearted and couldn’t resist his coaxing. She immediately decided to let him stay, and the grandchildren treated Fu Zhen as if he were invisible, discussing food in front of him back and forth.

Fu Zhen returned to his room sulkingly.

She continued planning to return to the Ning Family.

Once Pei Mu returned the next day, she wouldn’t be able to go, and she’d have to delay another day.

Just as she stepped over the threshold, Zhang Cheng came face to face with her.

"Young Madam! My master has returned!"

Fu Zhen was surprised to hear this: "Wasn’t he supposed to arrive in two days? How did he arrive so quickly?"

"I don’t know either!" Zhang Cheng slapped his thigh. "A junior brother from Taishan Hall just ran over to deliver the message. He said the master arrived this morning, and after washing and having a meal, he sent him over to invite you!"

Mr. Li arriving in the capital early and being so eager showed that his journey was safe. Fu Zhen was naturally happy.

But his urgency left people confused. Even if she had generously lent him two shopkeepers to handle the accounts, which surely helped a lot, there was no need to summon her so urgently for this matter.

What’s really going on?

Thinking this, she hurriedly told Zhang Cheng to prepare the carriage and rushed to Taishan Hall without another word.

During these months, Fu Zhen would occasionally detour past Taishan Hall, intentionally or not, to check on the shop for Li Yi.

However, there was no need for her, as everything at the martial arts school was normal, with the same number of people coming and going as before.

Today, however, besides two disciples guarding the gate, there was not a single outsider in front of the martial arts school.

Fu Zhen stepped off the carriage and entered, soon seeing the martial arts school’s disciples coming up to guide the way.

"Master has been waiting for the General’s wife for some time, and he is having tea inside!"

After saying this, one person sped up and entered, loudly announcing as he walked: "The General’s wife has arrived!"

Fu Zhen also quickened her pace and barely crossed the threshold into the courtyard where she first met the old man when a loud yet somewhat hoarse voice called out:

"Girl! Why did it take you so long to get here?!"

With a gust of wind in front of her eyes, a frail old man appeared.

He widened his eyes and looked Fu Zhen up and down before excitedly saying: "I’ve missed you so much!"

Fu Zhen grinned and bowed to him: "Long time no see! It’s been quite a while since you left, how was your journey?!"

"Good, good, good!" Li Yi repeatedly said good, then hurriedly continued, "Thanks to the two capable shopkeepers you lent me, all the accounts were sorted out within half a month, and the shops have reopened! Now they’re all turning a profit!"

"That’s good! It’s a great thing!" Fu Zhen followed him into the house, asking as she walked, "Since it was sorted out long ago, why did it take you so long to come back?

"Could it be that there were other issues over there?"

"You guessed it right!" Li Yi sighed, gestured to the disciples to watch the entrance, then pointed inside and said, "Let’s go in and talk!"

Inside, the tea was already set, and on the table was a large bundle, with several trunks spread on the floor, clearly luggage he brought back.

This further showed how urgent his trip was to find her. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Fu Zhen asked, "Haven’t you gone home yet? The old lady must be worried!"

"I have, I have!" Li Yi waved his hand, then leaned over the tea table and whispered, "Do you remember before I left, I mentioned taking on a commission to find someone?"

Fu Zhen had a feeling in her heart: "Of course I remember! Did you find them?"

"No." Li Yi shook his head, but then added, "But it’s not that I haven’t found anything at all."
