Chapter 886: Chapter 884: The Transmigrated Woman Bound to the Good Pregnancy System 28
"Who do you think did this?" Ye Shuangzhou asked. At this moment, the schadenfreude and curiosity on his face were gone, replaced entirely by confusion and despair.
He hadn’t expected to suffer something like this himself. As the Valley Master of Medicine King Valley with outstanding Medical Skills, he actually couldn’t solve this.
Thinking of Mo Ying’s smile when he learned about this, Ye Shuangzhou practically wanted to kill someone.
Mo Ying had come along this time too. Now that he had arranged all the Shadowless Building matters and was temporarily avoiding face?to?face contact with his subordinates, only then had they managed not to tip anyone off that something was wrong.
Seeing Ye Shuangzhou return, Pei Hui initially let out a breath of relief—after all, his time was almost up. He just wanted to get this over with quickly and go back to the imperial court. As a dignified Reincarnator, there was no way he would lose to that sickly Crown Prince.
No—the other party’s illness was cured. His body was getting better by the day. According to the news, things like horseback riding and archery weren’t affected at all.
But when he heard about Ye Shuangzhou’s situation, he was dumbfounded too.
"Right now, aside from us, the one who’s changed the most is the Crown Prince. His illness is cured!" Pei Hui said. "Maybe it’s someone from the Crown Prince’s side."
Ye Shuangzhou frowned. "If it’s people from the Crown Prince, they’d have no problem making a move on you and me, so why did they make a move on Mo Ying too?"
"Master." Xiao Qing’s voice sounded outside the door. "People from the Weimu Marquis Mansion heard Divine Doctor Ye has returned and want to invite Divine Doctor Ye over to treat an illness."
A lot of things still needed to be directly ordered to Xiao Qing, but every time it was still done through a closed door.
Pei Hui asked, "Did they mention what kind of illness?"
"Seems the Heir of the Marquis Wei Wu is ill. Very serious," Xiao Qing replied.
Shen Si’an?
Pei Hui remembered this person—the one who had previously abducted Qin Chen. He’d suspected the man might be a Reincarnator. But later Qin Chen came back, and Shen Si’an never again appeared in front of Qin Chen. Pei Hui had too many matters on his hands and stopped paying attention. He hadn’t expected the next time he heard news of Shen Si’an, it would be an invitation for Ye Shuangzhou to treat an illness.
Ye Shuangzhou was staying with him. Although he hadn’t deliberately concealed it, not everyone knew Ye Shuangzhou’s identity.
Could it be that Shen Si’an fell ill at this point in time? Because he couldn’t get Qin Chen back, he’d gone to Ye Shuangzhou for help?
"Are you going to take a look?" Pei Hui asked.
Ye Shuangzhou’s face was dark. "I’ll go have a look. I need to confirm some things. I suspect..."
By the time he’d said this much, Pei Hui already had an inkling—and at the same time thought of another person they’d always considered impossible—Qin Chen.
"That residence Qin Chen is living in now belongs to the Crown Prince," Pei Hui said. Pei Ling had never really bothered to hide that part; it only took a simple check to find out. "The person behind her is from the Crown Prince’s side. Maybe by some chance, they helped Qin Chen change her physique. Qin Chen is someone they’re protecting. It’s not strange at all for them to punish anyone who’s bad to Qin Chen."
Ye Shuangzhou said, "Then what about the previous life? Why didn’t that person act then?"
"In the last life, Qin Chen’s first half of life was actually pretty decent. The mess with Ji Qing only happened many years later. Maybe that person was already gone by then."
"The Crown Prince was reborn and may have gotten a head start on mastering some things—found that person earlier, cured his own illness ahead of time. That’s the only reason Qin Chen could move into the residence he arranged." Pei Hui analyzed.
He had to admit, it sounded quite plausible.
Even at this point, they still didn’t believe Qin Chen was the one doing all this.
This was because they were Reincarnators, shackled by what they’d known in the previous life, never realizing that the Qin Chen from that life and this one were two different people.
Ye Shuangzhou made a trip to the Marquis Wei Wu. Even though he had his suspicions, after diagnosing Shen Si’an’s condition, he still found it absurd.
He said he couldn’t fix it, and the people of the Marquis Mansion were powerless too.
Afraid Shen Si’an’s situation would get out and disgrace them, they immediately arranged to send him far away and claimed he was ill to outsiders. It wasn’t that they hadn’t tried other methods, but they couldn’t inflict any harm on Shen Si’an, and they didn’t dare make a big fuss. On top of that, Shen Si’an was someone dearly cherished, so they could only hide him away.
When Pei Hui learned of this, he collapsed weakly onto his chair.
"The Crown Prince is vicious!"
He suddenly shot to his feet. "I’m going to him."
Ye Shuangzhou didn’t stop him. Going to the Crown Prince to settle this might actually not be a bad option right now.
But Pei Hui had only taken two steps out before retreating again. In his current state, leaving the house was really inconvenient. Better to send a letter.
"Seventh Brother actually invited me over to his manor for a talk." Pei Ling, who’d received the letter, was currently at Ah Chen’s estate. He quickly guessed the reason. "He mostly thinks the one pulling dirty tricks is me."
"I wonder what Miss Qin thinks?" Pei Ling asked again.
His seventh brother’s current ordeal was orchestrated by this lady. He’d just listen to her arrangements.
Ah Chen lounged lazily in her chair. "You don’t need to do anything. They won’t come looking for you much longer."
It was time to let them recover their memories of the second round.
[Qin Chen, what are you planning now?] After a long silence, the Good Pregnancy System’s voice sounded again. Instinct told it Qin Chen was about to cause trouble yet again. Even though it couldn’t stop her, it still couldn’t help speaking up.
Ah Chen asked, [You still haven’t dropped dead from anger?]
The Good Pregnancy System was furious. It was a system—it didn’t have a body—how could it die from anger? If systems could die from rage, it should already have died countless times by now.
[Qin Chen, if you start doing the missions now, it’s still not too late. Otherwise someday you’ll regret it. The power backing me is very strong.] When it said this, there was even a trace of fear in the Good Pregnancy System’s voice.
But Ah Chen didn’t respond.
She snapped her fingers lightly, and Pei Ling felt something was off, as if something was changing at that very moment.
Right now, Ye Shuangzhou and Mo Ying were both with Pei Hui, and the three of them were all waiting for Pei Ling’s reply.
The news came quickly: Pei Ling rejected Pei Hui. As the dignified Crown Prince, was he someone they could just ask to see on demand? Shouldn’t it be him summoning them instead?
But Pei Hui had been so certain earlier, convinced Pei Ling was the one playing dirty.
Just as they were preparing to disguise their identities and go see Pei Ling anyway, the three of them suddenly felt a wave of dizziness.
The next instant, memories of the second round appeared in their minds. As the memories unfolded, their expressions shifted in all sorts of ways.
At the same time, Shen Si’an, who had been sent away by the Marquis Mansion, also gained this set of memories.
Setting aside how the four of them reacted after watching the memories of the second round, Jiang Xun, who’d gone to snoop around and learned what had happened, returned to the residence where Ah Chen was staying, a complex look in his eyes.
"Where has Doctor Jiang been busy these past few days?" Ah Chen asked with a smile.
Jiang Xun: ...
She already knew and was only pretending to ask.
"How did you do it?" Jiang Xun calmed himself before asking. He couldn’t help being curious what kind of grudge there was between them.
Still, those people were definitely not good people—that much he could be sure of.
If Qin Chen were truly just an ordinary village girl, she would have been at their mercy, unable to resist at all.
"A special method. It’s exactly what they deserve." Ah Chen didn’t explain much. After all, Jiang Xun was living in ancient times; he wouldn’t understand what a system was. "You can think of it as a kind of miraculous power."
The power possessed by the system really did count as miraculous.
Jiang Xun took a sip of water, and his mood settled.
Because of that little interruption, he hadn’t poisoned Ye Shuangzhou. Given Ye Shuangzhou’s current situation, he was much worse off than if he’d simply been poisoned. Now they just had to sit back and wait for the outcome.
As for why Ye Shuangzhou had harmed his master, that still needed to be clarified. Next time he’d find an opportunity to ask—using this situation on Ye Shuangzhou to trick out the truth.
