A Military Doctor Became a Stepmom in Ancient Times

“Perhaps.” As Jiang Ying spoke, his gaze landed on Ning Yue.

He felt that Lian Xin was not only doing this to spy on the military, but also because of Ning Yue.

“What’s wrong?” Ning Yue asked.

!!

“Nothing. I just find Lian Xin very annoying,” Jiang Ying said.

“Yes, very annoying.” Ning Yue frowned. She hated Lian Xin, especially after doing business with him.

However, Ning Yue was curious about something. Lian Xin and Yuan Hui were transmigrators like her.

Yuan Hui had asked the Lord of Hell to come to her side to repay her kindness.

What was going on with Lian Xin? She remembered that Yuan Hui had told her that Lian Xin had a dream about a fairy girl and treated her as the girl in the dream.

How was her previous life related to Lian Xin?

The Host looked very similar to her, but Yuan Hui looked different from his previous life. She couldn’t judge the relationship between Lian Xin and her in her previous life based on appearances.

So how should she investigate?

Seeing that Ning Yue was deep in thought, Jiang Ying and Xin Xin did not disturb her. When Ning Yue thought it through, she realized that the two of them had been silent for a long time.

“It’s so late. Why don’t we rest first?” Ning Yue said in embarrassment. In order not to disturb her train of thought, the two of them had been accompanying her.

“Alright, have a good rest,” Jiang Ying said.

Ning Yue and Xin Xin returned to their rooms, while Jiang Ying went to work. He still had work to do, but he was also worried about Ning Yue. He could not let Ning Yue go back alone.

Fortunately, the most critical step of the mission he was going to complete had been completed. He just had to arrange the follow-up.

Qian Cen’s soreness had already been cured by Ning Yue. He had already won his heart. He could leave future tasks to him.

After making up his mind, Jiang Ying immediately went to see Qian Cen.

It was late at night. Qian Cen was still sleeping when he was woken up by the servants.

“What happened? Why are you so flustered in the middle of the night?” Qian Cen asked.

“Lord, His Highness is here. Hurry up and get up! He said he wants to see you,” the servant said to Qian Cen.

When Qian Cen heard this, he quickly got up, dressed as quickly as possible, and rushed to the entrance of the government office.

“Your Highness, why are you here in the middle of the night?” Qian Cen silently wiped the cold sweat off his forehead.

He kept thinking about why Jiang Ying would come over at this time.

“Can we talk in private? It’s not convenient to talk here.” Jiang Ying looked around.

This was not an empty place. On the contrary, there were houses everywhere and many blind spots that could not be seen at a glance. It would not be worth it if someone eavesdropped there.

“Yes, please enter the residence, Your Highness.” Qian Cen gestured for him to enter.

“Okay.” Jiang Ying followed Qian Cen to the study.

“Your Highness, is there something very important?” Qian Cen asked.

For some reason, Qian Cen felt that Jiang Ying had come with good news.

“Yes, I’m here to discuss with you about what to do when I get back.” Jiang Ying briefly explained his thoughts.

Qian Cen looked at Jiang Ying in shock. There was hope and joy in his eyes. Complicated emotions flashed across his eyes.

Jiang Ying waited for a long time, but Qian Cen did not answer. He asked, “Is Your Excellency unwilling?”

“No, I’m willing,” Qian Cen said happily.

He had waited for so many years before this opportunity finally came.

The emperor had placed him in the fief of Prince Jin as a transition. He had originally thought that he would be sent to the fiefs of the other two princes by the emperor.

However, the emperor did not do that. Instead, he sent him to King Chu.

At that time, he was still very puzzled as to why the emperor had sent him to King Chu. King Chu was a person who did not care about the world and was devoted to Buddhism.

At that time, the emperor had only said that one should not look at the surface of anything.

“What about Prince Jin?” he asked the emperor.

The emperor said, “If he wants to, it won’t be my turn to sit on the throne.”

At that time, the emperor’s answer was very casual, but it shocked Qian Cen.
